    • Wat bedoel je met 'krijg niet meer geopend'? Programma's/instellingen? Of de telefoon als apparaat? Als je het apparaat nog kunt openen, kan je de batterij er uit halen, de contactpunten schoonmaken met een droge doek, terugplaatsen en het opnieuw proberen. Anders even naar de telefoonwinkel.
