Mobile phone repair???

I got a busted Motorola V710. I need to fix it to recover the phone book. Anybody know a shop or company that does this. The phone doesn't power on, but when you plug it in the screen turns on with the motorola picture.

good luck...most places will charge you up the ass to fix a phone...just because a phone is usually cheaper then parts and labor...

if it is just for your phone book then your better off asking everyone for their numbers

It my boss's phone. Close to maybe about 100 numbers. He might have some contacts in there that might be worth 10g if they become a client.

GSM only works if they put the phone number on the sim card. It doesn't do it automatically. Also the verizon thing only works or willing to do it for you if the phone powers and works normally. Otherwise they are unable to power it up. They also are unable to repair. I think sprint seems to be better in repairs.
