X10 mini won't switch on.

Hi.

I dropped my xperia x10 mini today. On first inspection the contrast of the screen was a lot darker that normal making it very hard to read. I went into the settings to check the brightness levels, but adjusting it made no difference. I decided to switch the phone off hoping when I switched it back on it might have reset itself. It now wont switch back on.

The screen blinks from time to time (as it does when you first turn it on) and if you press the on/off button it will eventually give the little vibration as if it was about to start up. There is no light from the LED. I've read a few other posts and tried pressing the various button combinatons that people have mentioned, these have made the LED turn green, but when I stop pressing the buttons the LED soon turns off.

I've tried to conect it to my Pc but no phone is been detected.

Is there anything else I can try myself? Thanks for your help.

I would suggest trying to update the device using the Update Service,

If the above does not work, then I can only suggest getting the handset to a service centre.
