Phone works fine with the new battery, but it still wont charge. Have read a little online about possible issues that are causing it. Think it may be something called a "DFU".

So what do ye think is a reasonable price to pay to get my phone to charge again? I have rang a few places but they said they will have to look at it first before giving me a price....
