LG 1400 problem... please help!

Apr 3, 2005 7:50AM PDT

We recently went with Cingular and today while on a ride my cell phone got a little "weird." It keeps telling me to insert card and I can't even get to the menu or anything. The phone was in my side pocket of my motorcycle jacket and since it's a flip phone and hubby isn't leaning on me, I don't think anything got pressed by accident???

Try removing the SIM card after turning off the phone and reinsert. Turn it on and if still get same error, the phone is defective.

Thanks! Tried that just now - twice. Keeps telling me to insert card. Sad Hubby tried putting the battery on his phone & it did the same thing, so maybe it's the battery? Guess I have to wait til tomorrow and call them. *sigh* Only had the thing for less than a week.
