Help, Just got N-gage and no GO!!!

4 replies · 1,073 views · Started 10 June 2004

Hey there, i just got an N-gage 😊 . Its not new and its just the deck and a game mmc which is NCAA 2004 and a "Dummy" sim card. Some dude sold it to me off the street for super cheap. I think it was ripped off one of those display things at a video game store...... but any how...

I dont have a charger but when i turn it on by pressing the button on the side......the screen lights up.....nokia logo shows up....then disappears.....screen goes blank....and light turns off then nokia logo flashes on unlit screen 3-4 times....slowly...at 5 second intervals and thats it!!!! Nothing happens...no sounds at all either.....do i have to get it flashed or something? Or is it a coaster.... :frown:

Please help!

Thanks! 😊

turn on with a charger plugged in, probably be cheaper to buy a charger then another battery

Well i bought a new charger for it and still does the same thing...i dont even think its charging. Just turns on to nokia white screen....then screen dims and nokia flashes on bottom at few times with backlight off and then it just dies.....

How could i reflash the whole unit? Is there a place or method to get this deck back to factory fresh status? please advise!!

Sounds like there is no OS installed,take it to your nearest nokia service centre and convince them you "Cant understand how this could happen (It was ok last night!) lol 😊 .
