Hi all, recently I posted describing a problem with conecting a data cable to my 8310 and it fried it (without even plugging into PC) It wouldn't boot up after that.
Davie B even had the same problem. Have you got your phone fixed now Davie B?
Anyway, sent it away to Nokia to get fixed.
Well I picked it up today all fixed under Nokia Warranty.
They werent all that helpful with a reason why the data cable fried the phone but the technician did say that there aren't any proper data cables out there for 8310's and the wiring and contacts could not be correct.
Also said that the software in the phones could be written in such a way that it shuts the phone down if the phone is messed up with a dodgy cable or the software can be written badly.
So are we any closer to a reason why some 8310 phones do this?
If there is someone out there using a data cable on an 8310 with no problems, praps you could post on here where you got your cable so others can get proper cables and cut out the dodgy ones.
Thanks all for the help and assistance provided on the other threads.
