After about a year of use, I got the same problem like some of yours: the phone doesn't turn on again when pushing the ON-button.
This phone is distributed for free by a Belgian operator in order to replace their oldest series of phones, so be careful.
I bought another phone now gave the Siemens to my 4 years old daughter to play with it.
Grtz.

I had mine run over by a car by accident once.. And it's still up and running.:)
I consider one would use a phone for talking basically, and that the phone should need to do the following only: good signal, good battery, be robust, have an ok interface. Well, it's not real sound, nor millions of colours, the battery lats for two or three days at most, but the signal is very good and it will probably outlive me.

I had one of these phones for 13 months, then, as other users have found, it failed (press 'on' switch - screen goes blue for 2 seconds, nothing else except a buzz). I bought another - perhaps stupidly. 13 months later, same fault exactly. Have lost valuable info stored. Local Mobile shop say nothing can be done - that it happens to Mobiles of all makes and is a software fault. However, I shall buy phones of other makes in future!

iv had this phone for 2 years now. it has worked fine for me even though is used it quite constantly. but its not a very strong handset, the battery hook is very weak, and i had to recharge this phone evry day. iv given it up now coz its software is down..and doesnt turn on. on the exterior..its colour starts peeling off with a month of use. scratches on the screen is inevitable no matter how carefully it is used!plus i dont like the games it has to offer, let alone the ringtones!

Nice basic phone for emergencies, BUT, BUT, twice my darling wife left the phone on standby in her handbag, and inadvertently, the call button was pressed twice - first press gets 'last number called', send press rings the number. So, she calls me, I hear everything around her, she can't hear me, mobile credit down the drain....

DO NOT PURCHASE, just because of this crap 'design' feature.

Cheers

Mel

I had the Siemens A62 for 1.5 years.
Used it only for emergencies.
Worked fine.

except:
Almost always OFF when carrying it in my pocket.
It went ON sometimes when it was in my pocket.

Now after 1.5 years the siemens A62 is defect.
Screen shows up for a very short time, and the speaker gives a little soft buzzing sound. Sounds like a 50 hz which you can get on audio equipment.

Defect after only 1.5 years, isn't this very quick ?

I don't know if this topic is still being checked, but I have a 'small' problem. Somebody changed the language of my A62 and now I can't get it back :/ ... I checked the internet for usermanuals but they don't seem to be online. If somebody could help me out by for example giving me the nr. of the submaps .. or give a screenshot.
Thank you!

Hi, my ringer is switched off and I don't know how to switch it back on. There's a crossed out bell on the display, but if I go to "ringer setting" it's "on".
Can anyone help?
Thank you!

"there's no 'New SMS' option on my A62 and it switiches off whenever i try to access the Inbox"

In case it helps anybody, I solved this by using another sim card rather than the one that came with the phone. The New SMS option appears and the phone doesn't crash when trying the other sms options.
