Hi folks - I recently bought the MTK 6573 G20 from China - I wanted a cheap Dual Sim phone with WCDMA (for the 3 network in Ireland). Everything ewas working fine until yesterday - I let the phone run out of charge - and now when i've recharged the battery it will not switch on - I've tried it with both batteries - which are now fully charged - but its like the on/off switch is just not responding - I dont know if its just the switch that is knackered or whether there is a software problem.

She is running on the google android 2.3.5 - all advice and assistance would be greatly appreciated - thanks

She's probably bricked, unbootable. Faulty or buggy software most likely. Which is a rather common problem with these off-brand/no-brand cheapo phones from China. Probably would be best to return it for refund or replacement.

You might want to read the forum sticky about these things...
