If cell phone fails to power on: i. Check on/off switch
ii. Check battery voltage.
iii.Check if it can charge.
iv. Bad power IC.
v. Do cross connection by using computer software to
flash it.
Keypad problem: i. Clean the keypad interface of the circuit board.
ii. Check if there is continuity on the interface.
