    Hi ,

    My 8520 wont switch on, when connected to the charger it shows the battery image with an x over it . . .

    it worked fine, and then i left it switched off for about 2 weeks or more and now this fault.
    what could be wrong?
    any help is appreciated

    thanks

    That usually means there is something wrong with the battery. You might need to replace it. Also the battery could be completely dead and a "stack charge" might fix it. Does the red light come on briefly when you plug it in? If so that means the battery IS getting a second or two of juice. KEEP doing that unplug then plug in again, literally a hundred times and you MIGHT get it to take enough juice to start charging normally.
