N97 wont switch on after V20 update!!!!!

I updated my N97 to V20 this eve after waiting a long time to finally get it. For starters I had to get my old PC out the cupboard to be able to do his as if I try and update with Vista 64 there is apparently no update available, works fine with XP though!
So  finally update, everything goes OK on screen an update says its finished successfully. Unfortunately the only life I get from the brick that was once my mobile is a constant vibrate 'feature' with no display and now a quick vibrate when I press the power button.
I've tried a hard reset, no joy! The charge light doesn't even come on when I plug it into the mains charger. And the USB cable gives no joy.
Has anyone else had this problem? And did you find a way of sorting it? Gonna have to send it away and get it sorted, back to a spare Samsung D900 at least it works!
I think this is definitely bye bye Nokia! You are useless!!!

Sounds like a corrupt firmware. Remove your Sim Card try booting it up.. like the previous person said remove the battery for 30 mins.. then try and boot.. if nothing then re-insert the sim if you can finally reboot it then "reinstall the Firmware" if not take it to a nokia care centre to be reinstalled. Just to let you know I had the same problem.. my phone would boot to the "nokia" name but not the hands and it'd stay like that over night if i let it.. I removed the Sim and Memory card several times about 10 in total before i pulled everything out and left the battery out for 30 mins to try and remove any temp caches. Booted it up with the sim out and BOOM it loaded.. then chuckled my **bleep** off when i HAD to turn the phone off to put my sim back in.. dun dun dun!!! Wont boot back up -.- so figured corrupt firmware left the battery out again and then put my sim back in to boot it up reloaded it and then reinstalled that damn firmware!

  • My iphone 6 wont turn on after i updated it and it doesn't work to restore it in itunes. what should i do?

    my iphone 6 wont turn on after i updated it and it doesn't work to restore it in itunes. what should i do?

    Hello ole-gunnar,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is unresponsive after updating your iOS version, then I'd like you to please follow the troubleshooting below.
    If you see a black screen
    You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on. 
    You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device. If your device doesn't respond when you press buttons
    Your device might not return to the Home screen when you press the Home button, wake from sleep when you press the Sleep/Wake button, slide to unlock or power off, or it might appear frozen. Try these steps:
    Restart your device.
    If it still doesn't respond, or if it doesn't turn back on, reset your device.
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    Get more help
    If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support. 
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • HT204204 my apple ipad wont turn on after i updating software

    sir,my apple ipad (16gb) wont turn on after i updating software correctly.so still this off position and cant any work.please help me

    You took a backup on your computer's iTunes prior to starting the backup, or you have a recent backup ? And you have all of the apps that you had on the iPad in the Apps part of your computer's iTunes library - none of your iTunes downloads are included in a backup (that contains apps settings and contents), the restore will look to pick them up from your iTunes library.
    To restore select the iPad on your computer's iTunes and either do File > Devices > Restore From Backup
    Or on its Summary tab in iTunes click the 'Restore Backup' button

  • N97, issues still unresolved after software update

    I was happy to see the latest software update from Nokia for N97 hoping it would have solved the issues but I was very disappointed experiencing the same problems that I was getting before and worst part was new problems have also
    been experienced.
    Old problem which is still not solved
    It is still impossible to get the phone working if it switches off by battery getting fully drained. The battery doesn't start
    charging even if you put the phone in charging for 24 hours. The charging light blinks but the phone doesnt charge.
    New problem after software update
    Even if the phone is put on charge for 24 hours, it doesnt get fully charged. Infact the battery indicator doesn't climb up after 2 points and after using the phone for a small time, it says battery discharged and phone switches off.
    I have always been stuck to Nokia phones since I've started using handphones but am having the worst experience with
    this N97. God knows when the Nokia people will wake up and provide a final solution to this.

    Try pulling the battery and leaving it out for 5 minutes.  Put back together and commence a recharge.  Se if that helps.

  • Iphone 4 won't switch on after ios update

    Hi my iphone 4 won't switch on pretty well first use after latest update.
    I have tried numerous button pressing configurations and times as suggested on other forums but still no luck...any ideas?

    Hold down Power on/off and home button at same time, when apple logo appears again release.
    If still have same problem force recovery mode restore with iTunes, set up as new first making sure phone goes to home screen.
    If all good - restore from back up
    good luck...

  • Iphoe.ne 4s not switching on after software update

    I updateed my handset yesterday, after the update had been completed the handset told me to connect to itunes, which i did, itunes then told me the handset was in need of a restore, submitted to the restore only to get a message appearing on screen that itunes was unable to restore phone, its stuck now on a continuous loop of showing the apple icon and turning off. I have tried several times to hold the lock and home buttons in to no avail. It wont connect to itunes at all now either, and when i put it onto the charger it heats up at the back but thats it.  Do i need to bring it instore to be fixed?

    If the above doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
    5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost.

  • 4s wont turn on after OS update 8.1.3.

    4s wont turn on after OS 8.1.3 update. attempted restart several times with no success. fully charged battery & plugged I at time of update. iTunes doesn't recognize the device since it wont turn on so I cant even do a system restore. no problems previously.
    any suggestions? thanks in advance.

    The message is correct. Once you see the iTunes logo and the USB cord your iPhone must be restored. It has already lost all data stored on it. You can recover your data from a recent backup if you have one. You can recover all purchased music and apps without the backup. When I updated our 2 iPhones, I backed each of them up to iTunes before updating just in case. I recommend that you do this before you do any future updates.

  • Mac Mini wont' Display Sleep after Yosemite Update

    My Mac Mini is no longer going into Display Sleep. Instead I now see the Screen Saver.  I have checked System Preferences | Energy Saver and it is definitely set to Display Sleep after 10 minutes (The default). What is interesting is that if I try to change the Display Sleep time (e.g. to 1 hour), when I go back into Energy Saver, it is back to 10 minutes - this doesn't look right!  In fact none of the options (e.g. Wake on LAN) seem to stay changed.
    This seemed to start after the update to Yosemite 10.10.1 a few days ago - but that might be coincidental. Until then Display Sleep had worked fine.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

  • My iPhone 5 wont switch on after update, says that I need to plug in to iTunes to reset all data, but I dont want to loose my things and I haven't backed it up for months, what should I do?

    I wanted to get new update but phone wont turn on without resetting it in iTunes I have tried pressing the home button and the off/on button together both whilst and not plugged into the computer but it doesn't want to work without getting rid of all my photos/videos and music...etc.

    Your data is already lost. You must restore your phone in order to be able to use it. This is why Apple offers you two ways to back up, including iCloud, which backs up automatically over wireless every night if you're plugged in to power and the screen is locked. How much easier could it be? Yet you say you haven't backed up in months. If your phone was lost or stolen, or you dropped it in a puddle, you would be in the same boat.
