Hi all,
My third week using my Newt 2100, something horrid has happened. I was
installing simplemail, and device reset itself. It never came back up,
instead the backlight was simply flashing on and off, in a sort of three
flashes, then longer pause, then flashes, etc.
Anyway, I searched the archives. I read that behavior is indicative of a
memory check failure. It seems that the other people who've encountered
this left their newts out in the rain, or spilled water on them!!! Not a
good sign, considering I was just using the device.
Today I opened up the message pad took out the ROM. I then put it back
in, making sure the card was properly seated. Started it up but got the
same flashing backlight.
Where do I go from here? Any suggestions...
Dylan.
