I have a Sidekick LX (older version, not the '09 version) that I bought when it first came out. Since then, I've bought new phones and I switch back to the Sidekick every now and then. Recently, I wanted to put my sim card back into my LX and it simply WOULD NOT turn on. I let it charge over night and the screen that says "once your device has charged for a few minutes, it will automatically turn on" but it never does. The screen eventually goes black and nothing happens. There's no damage whatsoever to the phone. I've tried to hard reset it by pressing the "R" when putting in the battery. I've also tried pressing the reset button behind the swivel screen. It acts like it will turn on, but then the screen goes black again. It seems to be charging fine, the orange indicator light comes on and everything. I've gotten a new sim card since I bought that phone, but I don't see why that would cause a problem with the phone turning on. I've researched this quite a bit, but nothing has worked. Any suggestions?
