My jitterbug flip phone screen does not work. Do you have fix? Could it need a new battery?

There is not a lot of information available on how to remove the cover on the Jitterbug Flip phone. However, it is possible to remove the back cover by gently prying it off with a small flathead screwdriver. Start at the bottom corner of the phone and work your way around the edge until the cover pops off. Be careful not to damage the phone in the process.

This is $100 budget phone for seniors, so I am thinking the quality must be low. However the problem states that poor signal and network strength is the issue. You need to contact your Telco about the reception where you live. Low signal strength can also be caused physically where you live, say if you live in a basement apartment within a family home.

Refer to the manual Sally :>D It may just be as simple as the Volume Up button on the side.

I was thinking there was a Mute button, but there isn't. It sounds like the phone is faulty. Here is the manual and the page on Volume. Try pressing the volume up button when a call comes in.

Better copy perhaps?

Maybe your cellphone is broken and you should by a new cellphone.

Do you know anyone with a similar Jitterbug?

It would help tremendously if you would try charging your battery in someone else's charger.
If the battery charges then your charger is the problem and not the battery. Useful to know.

I am assuming you have wiped all the contacts with alcohol or contact cleaner, to remove any thin film that might be interfering with electric conduction.

Quite often that persistently blinking charge light indicates a battery that has reached the end of its useful life.

If you buy a new battery be certain to charge it at least 14 hours before you ever put it into the phone.

I repair a lot of digital cameras, watches, cell phones, etc. And contacts that need cleaning or degreasing are quite common.]

Is it a GSM network phone? If so it uses a SIM.

Hello -

See the information here, including the comments:

According to some of the comments there, the cell phone is no longer supported by Jitterbug and can only be used for 9-1-1 service.

After learning that the Samsung SCH-R220 can only be used for emergency calls, you may opt to no longer sell it. If so, please do not just toss it out, but make sure it is sent to responsible electronics recycling. Find information on cell phone recycling here:
