i bought this samsung online off ebay.it worked totally fine until last night and i've had it for awhile now it fell and it was totally fine just a scratch but it turned off.

the next day. it wouldn't pick up any signals it keeps saying "searching" with no reception bars and when it was full reception it would say "limited service" so i took my sim card out of that and put it in my old samsung sgh d807 thinking it might be the service but the sim card totally works and picks up service and working totally fine on my sgh d807.

My god! That's crazy. I could burst in tears if any those happened to me, eventho my N70 did, but still works fine and ofcourse getting muc ugli-er. Sgh-u700, is a great model!! I wish to have that!! If you ever buy that phone, ahh I'll haunt you down. Just kidding. But I'm sure your phone will work as usual A.S.A.P! Amen!

First, lets find out if it's a software problem.

Go to your settings and try to find a master reset option. I haven't used that cell phone, but I know it has that feature. If you're having trouble finding it, check out HowardForums.com.

If a master reset doesn't work, then it's most definitely a hardware issue and it's going to cost a lot just to get it repaired and it's always recommended that you just buy a new phone instead.

You can also ask questions at that forum, if you wish.
