Guest bx16v Posted August 9, 2004 Report Posted August 9, 2004 its been working faultlessly all weekend, not a single lock up. :D I sat thinking about when it locks up, normally in my car, or pocket, rarely when sitting on the desk, it seemed to be a movement issue. Having sat and played with the god awful sim card holder, as used by many mobile fone makers I thought it had way to much play in it, the sim card simply isnt a tight fit, its has a good 1mm or so play in all directions. This is probably because its old, been in and out of a few fones, not the case for every one. Bodging time :P using a trusty Post-It note, I tore off a little strip, folded it over a few times so it was a few mm thick, and placed it over the exposed end of the sim card, end nearest the top of the fone. With the batery in place it gently wedges its in palce and stops all movment (i imagine, cant see through the battery). So far, so good, the fones not locked up with an incoming call or messages since, my girlfriends not screaming at me every time she rings and it cocks up, peace has been restored in the world! I know its a terrible bodge, I've seen it done on Nokias before, my own included. Just thought I'd share........ Might be complete bo**ocks though :wink:
