A couple of weeks ago I noticed my status bar was gone. I thought it was a software update, bit annoying, but otherwise harmless. Then a week ago it didn't want to open any maps/camera/... any more and just gave an "SD card not installed" error. This is true, I never had a micro-SD installed. And thinking this was again part of a now extremely annoying update, I went and got me a 16GB Sandisk micro-SD card. The phone never even recognised it and the same error message kept popping up. The SD card works btw, I tested it on another phone.
Then since yesterday, I'm unable to pick up calls. I can make them no problem and my phone does ring when I'm called. But it doesn't give me a single option to actually pick up the call. Screen stays black and any button I touch just ends the call.
I'm thinking this is more of a virus, as my father seems to have the same problems (all but the SD card one) on his LG. I've tried rebooting, taking out the battery for several minutes, a factory reset and a hard reset. No improvements however. Status bar is still gone, still can't pick up calls, SD card stays unrecognised. So, is there still hope or should I hold on till the sales and just get a new phone?
