Stuck on 'Starting up' screen

Cassy · 05-06-2009, 07:21 PM

Hi Guys,

I have tried everything to bring my 505 back to life but nothing is working. I've held the power button down, plugged it in, pressed the reset button the back but its still frozen on the start up screen.

Can someone please help

Thanks,
Cassy

UPDATE:

I fixed it. phew >.<

that was a great big panic.

I kept pressing the reset and sliding the power buttons continously until it reset then it turned out it was out of battery- it must have drained when it was left plugged in via usb all night (not by me!)

Wait a minute... doesn't leaving it plugged into usb all night make it charge (not drain)??
