I hope they replace your phone with a new one and not just repair it.<br /><br />Keep us all posted on your issue and how it was resolved.<br /><br />I still haven't had my SIM replaced... It's the dumbest problem, with an even weirder solution (I have to freeze my SIM for it to work again)<br /><br />Will probably request for a 64k or older SIM card.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165271140385130647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047027057897812228.post-89808499261834806852010-08-14T01:29:23.001-05:002010-08-14T01:29:23.001-05:00Hi again, keep us posted on your problem.

I heard similar issues on the internet on the X10 series. You could try using the phone without a SIM and try if it replicates the problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047027057897812228.post-77603339838504983952010-08-13T12:55:52.125-05:002010-08-13T12:55:52.125-05:00Ok... this is getting ridiculous... my SIM is real...Ok... this is getting ridiculous... my SIM is really giving me issues... it's a 128K SIM...<br /><br />I will be going back to Globe and requesting an older SIM (which never gave me problems)Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165271140385130647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047027057897812228.post-80072555829287005482010-08-12T05:12:36.685-05:002010-08-12T05:12:36.685-05:00Hi!

If that doesn't work, try bringing it to a service center, or the store you bought it from to try a different battery.<br /><br />My Mini Pro is fine, it never had a problem, it was really just the SIM.<br /><br />Does the phone vibrate when you press the power key? If it does and swapping SIMs doesn't work, it may need to be flashed. Service center can do this in about an hour or so depending on work load.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165271140385130647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047027057897812228.post-39579688242376755552010-08-12T04:27:25.949-05:002010-08-12T04:27:25.949-05:00My X10 Mini also died on me.

Did you have similar theory? How is your X10 Mini Pro now?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047027057897812228.post-6212686542956176362010-08-05T04:29:36.200-05:002010-08-05T04:29:36.200-05:00Thanks benjymous,
