iNew v3 Turning on Factory Mode

[cyberleo4u]

There's normally no need to turn on the phone. Just take out the battery and put it back in. Click download. Attach phone.

If your volume keys are sticking, I'd open it up and see if you can figure what the issue is. Maybe something sticky in there or rubber needs to be reseated.

I tried to remove the battery and reseat it and then try to connect it to the PC - but still nothing works. What actually happens is that as soon as I connect it to the PC, the mobile turns on automatically and turns on the Factory Mode.

The volume keys aren't actually sticking, they used to work on their own (mostly reducing the sound) and now, judging from the fact that during Factory Mode, I can't navigate through the options using the volume buttons, it seems that they are not even working any more now.
