It seems you've tried the vol down vol up etc trick, to no avail. Can you go to your local Nokia Care station and see if they can reflash your phone for you?

While the gears are spinning, do a soft reset - Just push volume down and power button until phone vibrates. It will probably go back to the spinning gears but should only be for about 5 minutes and then back to home screen.

I did what u said three or 4 times...

Immediately after the phone vibrates, release the power button and press the volume button up. You should get a logo with a lightning bolt. Let go of all buttons and try the soft reset from there.

Thats a new method???..So its like...First volume down + power key ...vibrates let go the power key...lightning bolt comes then...press volume up key...Thanks but now i am trying another method for last 30min ..ie ."Remove the battery and wait for 1 hour".. .

Thank you all for the Help..Removing the battery and keeping it aside for 1 hour...ie giving everything a rest miraculously worked...
