had some liquid spilled on my NK6230. Now the *, 0, #, right arrow and right menu selection (above hang-up button) is not working. Everythingelse is working.

I've dried it and brushed the main board, replaced the keypad PCB but no success.Then i tried Chunkhead's Guide to water damaged phones technique. Still no success.

Plus now i have an OS problems, when the phone's display switches to clock, it hangs and i have to pull out the battery to reboot. If i leave it longer in the clock window, the display fades. But i can turn it back on using the power button. These clock-display-hang symptom however does not show up when a charger is plugged in. Battery drains eventhough phone is not switched on.

Any help on what i can do without paying to fix it is appreciated. Thanks

hi!

if you have warranty for your phone go to a nokia service (with the phone) and with some cash AS FAST AS YOU CAN0, becouse the handset can die easily if you dont do anything, it seems that there is something already dead in the phone becouse of the SW problem you said. its bad, really bad if you want to save your phone get some money and visit a nokia center :mad: :???: :x :eek:
