I got Samsung F480T from Telstra.
Didn't use it for 6 months, and when plugged into USB to charge via PC, it won't charge. Took it to service centre, they put new battery, and it worked while I kept it charged up.

Then switched to using my Sony Ericsson, and didn't use Samsung for 8 months, and same drama. Phone was now out of warranty. Guess what, plugged in the wall charger, didn't work. Then kept it plugged in, and it started working after half hour! Woohoooo!!

For hard reset (if you forgot password for master reset, or just can't be bothered), unplug all cables, take out sim & memory cards, go to stand by screen, and type:

1.)*2767*3855#
2.)*7465625*638*00000000*00000000#
3.)#7465625*638*00000000#


One of them should work.
Cheers,

PS: Oh! Did you backup your data?

No need to perform Master Reset .

This problem also happens to me .

If your screen flash on and off when attempting to charge .

Just do this to make your phone functioning .

Take out your battery , charge it with multi charger . then about 20 minutes charging . insert back your battery to F480 phone .
Now on the phone ..it will return to normal .And you can resume charging with your normal charger .

Im using samsung F480 and when opening, i fogot the phone lock i installed before. And now i cant open my phone. Pliz heLp me, any tricks or code where i could simply dial any code to enter my phone.?...

CAUTION: A "master reset" changes the phone settings back to default. This process will erase all contacts, downloaded settings, and downloaded applications (ringtones, wallpapers, graphics, etc). This process cannot be undone.

Enter *2767*3855# from the standby screen.
