My motorola w315 was dead over the weekend because i left my charger at work. now that i've plugged it in though, it won't turn on. instead of saying battery charging on the external display like it usually does, it just lights up, then goes out, then lights up again, etc. when i open the phone the screen just displays the motorola powering on logo. i tried taking out the battery and putting it back in, but it's still doing the same thing. i've had it plugged in for over an hour now and it still won't turn on. (it would usually be able to turn on immediately when i plugged it in.) i tried holding down the power button for a while too, but that didn't do anything. (the phone is only a few months old and serviced through alltel, which unfortunately doesn't have a store here in chicago where i could take it to. i usually charge it every other night, and don't make many calls on it, but it goes dead quickly because i'm always semi-roaming...)
My husband's w315 is doing the same. This phone is a replacement sent to us because the original w315 I purchased for him had a problem with the screen. (It went blue and never displayed another thing!) When we rec'd this replacement, it worked fine until we had to charge it. They don't send a new battery with the replacements, you have to use the one out of your original phone. Soooooooo, back to the battery/charging problem. We have been to our local Cellular South store, and been given 3 new batteries & 1 new charger. Guess what.......the problem is still there!!!! We have now been instructed to file a warranty claim on this replacement w315 that we rec'd to replace our original w315!!!!!! I've gone to Motorola's web-site for help, but help I did not find. Thus.....here I am! Personally speaking, I'm not a fan of the w315.

Well. I ended up calling Alltel and getting someone to send me a replacement phone in the mail. As it would go, the new phone did not work either. This meant that my battery was bust, but it seemed stupid that I should already have to replace it after a few months when my previous phones have gone years without needing a new one. My mom called Alltell because she lives near one, and they told her to come in and they'd give her a new battery. And they did! For free! And now my phone is happy and working once more, although it does have other annyoing yet always present problems (like that fact that it often won't place a call after I've dialed for another 5 minutes, etc...)
Yeah, my motorola W315 has been giving me a host of problems ever since I bought it, then last night (it had a full battery) it randomly turned off, and wouldn't go back on, I tried taking out the battery, recharging it, etc.
My advice? Don't go with this product.
I turned off my phone when I was in a hospital and then tried to turn it back on and it said "goodbye". I charged it all night and it still said goodbye. When I call the number, it doesn't ring into my phone. How do I turn on my phone?
