Got a problem with my 720. I let the battery run down and have just recharged it, but it won't start properly now. It goes through the splash screen and onto the green screen with the "Please wait" in various languages, but won't go any further. I've carried out numerous soft resets, but still no joy.

Is there anything else I can try? Thanks.

Try it in the Car Windscreen Mount. I don't know why, but it's been known to kick a Device into action.

The Resets, did you do a 30 sec one?

Are you using an SD Card? If so try it without the Card in.

Not on a 720.. the windscreen mount is passive! Laughing

I would try all the other suggestions though, and also do it while still connected to the car charger (rather then just on a recharged battery).
