Hi,

Please go to t he link below to reset your headset, if after resetting the headset the issue persists, please contact your local Sony Ericsson store to look into your repair options:

I have seen some other posts with this problem and it appears to be some hardware issue with MW600.

If you've still got it within warranty, please leave it in for repair.

I posted this elsewhere, but I'll re-post in the hopes that it helps:

I had the same problem.  Saw it a few places online and figured out a fix that seemed to work for me.

If anyone else tries this, please not if it worked for you or not.


The problem is that although  the unit is charged, the power button seems to do nothing.  The reset  procedure that Sony recommends is not possible as the device never  powers on.


Although the device will not power on normally, plugging it in DOES light up the screen and show the charge status.


What I did was this:


  1. Plug the mw600 into the charger.
  2. Hold the power button as you normally would to power the device on or off.
  3. While still holding the power button, unplug the charger from the mw600.
  4. Continue to hold the power button.  In a few seconds the mw600 should power on normaly,


Hope this helps someone!

I actualy have two of these. Ordered one when I bought my X10i, not knowing it comes with the phone aswell. Now both have the startup problem and I tought that was it.

But I tried holding the power putton when charging and pulling out the cord. (As you said.) It actualy worked (with one of them). Thanks!!! Now I can listen to radio at work again 🙂

Hello People!

I Fixed my MW600... Grinning_Face

WHAT HAPPEND?
- I was listening music and it fell from my arm for the chair, about 30cm height and after that, it not power again...

HOW I FIXED IT?
- I had to disassembled it. I had to remove its battery, spinning a little the battery and put its back. I pushed the power button and it worked... Grinning_Face

Follow this video, step by step, for disassembly the mw600.
