copperco2 24 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 I have an old lg 2030, i wish to revive it. Considering the fact that i will be able to acces internet on this piece.. it has some circuit problems and will definetely need a battery . Guys.. do you think it will be worth it.. I was given an estimate of 800/- excluding the battery.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 Rs. 800 plus battery will push up ur cost well over 1k. It just might be a better idea to get another 2nd hand handset which is in good working condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted July 14, 2007 I would recommend u to take a Classic or something of the kind rather than reviving the old beauty re Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

copperco2 24 Report post Posted July 20, 2007 Guys.. I have got my handset repaired from a local guy for 500/- including the chines battery. I could not get an original one as didnt find/ not much time. Its given me a standby time of 15+ hrs mostly in that part of the house where signal strength is very low or non existent. will be trying it out for talktime from tommo onwards.. i have another handset again without battery i will try to revive it and may use for garuda with unlimited internet pack... lets see. if everything goes well.

copperco2 24 Report post Posted July 26, 2007 i guess t is worth it. looking at the benefits it provides.. internet, clear voice, sturdy phone. I guess its worth it. but if you are not going to repair it.. what will you do with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
