I have managed to get my Benefon phone working – the problem turned out to be the battery – I bypassed an IC Switch inside the battery and put it on charge for a few minutes and things started working. The battery is now up to 20% charged – correction… 23% charged. As yet I have not tested the GPS functionality, so that will be my next step. I also have not managed to change the settings for where position SMS messages get sent since Benefon seem to like to stop people ‘playing’ and lock users out of this setting.
