Some of the Buttons on the phone do not work.

I dropped the phone and here are the symptoms: 1) Phone buttons do not work. 2) Center of 5 way navigator does not work. 3) About half of the keyboard is out. I have been able to perform a soft reset. I have not been able to perform a hard reset. Does anyone have any ideas?

The best thing you can do is sending it to a professional. By opening the phone you can cause more damage? Just in case, why can't you execute the hard reset? If you don't know how, it's in the user guide -p. 171... FYI about Hard reset "...Performing a hard reset deletes all the entries in your phone. However, you can restore all previously synchronized info the next time you sync (see ?Synchronizing contacts and other information? in the user guide)..."

Sony Ericsson Z525A-COPY PHONE NUMBERS TO SIM CARD -BLANK SCREEN

to retrieve your numbers you would need to follow these key strokes...

center, toggle down (1 time), center, toggle up (2 times), center, toggle down (5 times), center, toggle down (5 times), center (3 times)

then wait for quite some time...it takes a while to copy all of the contacts...I would say anywhere from 5 to 10 mins...

this should work to save your contacts.

To save your pictures (and any other data you might want to retrieve) you could buy Sony's data cable

for the z525a. I haven't tried this but it should work since that is what the cable is for.

Its called a DCU-60 USB data cable, and is listed as being compatible with the z525a.
