hi
i got a second hand one of these phones yesterday but i broke the sd card holder off(micro sd) the hinge came off too so i cant put it back on #

so i taped the sd card in didnt work
i was talking to the lad today and he sait it clips in so i took a look and couldnt find a microswitch on it so i said might it be that those four metal bits on each corner(cant describe it better) have to bridge to make it think its clicked in and he said ya so im wondering can i put a small bit of tinfoil in on top of the tape or would it short something and kill the phone and is that how the phone detects its closed or would it be something else someone knows
all help greatly appreciated
thanks

Hi mate i kind of know what your trying to explain it happened to me the whole small door came off but I managed to clip it back on , there should be raised hinges either side and if you put one side on first then very gently put the other side on slightly bending the door just a millimeter over the other side it should hook in but you need very steady hands and patience!!! If however the hinges are broken then I think your stuck. Maybe try a piece of folded up paper between the SD card and then put the battery in just enough to push the paper tight between the SD card and the battery.

Hope I made some sense !!!!
