Unable to get to the service menu !

[wittyman]

All,

I tried all the necessary steps to get to the point where service menu should be shown on the the Zaurus C700 which I was planning to upgrade. I dont see anything on the screen.

Also, After removing and replacing the battery, when I plug in AC power, the battery charging light starts blinking after sometime. Does anybody know why this is happening ? Is the battery dead ??

please help,
thanks in advance,

Remove the batter and ac adapter, wait a minute or so, hold down the D+M keys while plugging in the acadapter.

The charging light should flash on then off, keep holdiong D+M the screen will flash white and change to the Service menu.
You can now release D+M and put the battery back in and close the battery lock tab.

Works everytime for me on the C760

Not sure about the flashing light problem - other people on the forum have suggested leaving the battery out over night, then replacing it. Hope this helps
