w880i dead

When I woke up this morning my w880i turned out to be dead (black screen, can't connect to charger or pc). I really don't want to return it to the store so you guys are my last chance. I've tried updating the version with SE official tool, but it didn't work one tiny bit, I've also tried to take the battery out and reinsetting it but that didn't help either.

Please help me ;)

By the way, I posted this another place but it didn't get any replys so I guess it was the wrong forum. If you need any other details please say so.

Check battery
If batt o.k, try to switch on the phone. If red led is blinking you may have EROM error.

down load se tool lite conect ur phone to it hold the 2 and * button on ur phone and post log up with out imei no so we can see

When I tried to switch on my phone it gave a quick red flash from the "C" button, I'll post log as soon as I have it. By the way philz, could you accept me on msn?
