Could my battery break by dropping the phone?
I dropped my phone and its now dead. Is it possible that the battery could be broken, as its not showing any continuity with a electric current tester.. the power switch appears to be working (has continuity).
Thanks for any help.

It was the battery. Bought a new one from Fairphone (back in stock!) and worked immediately. Job done!

Hi, Testing the battery, with it isolated or not from the phone, you should get a voltage reading using a Voltmeter connected across the battery connections, if everything is alright. Is there anything showing on the phone when you connect a charger?

Hi, Thanks for your reply.. no there is nothing showing on the phone when I connect the charger. The phone comes on when you connect a different battery (I used wires to connect a nokia battery from the battery terminals to the connectors in the phone).. and also there is a voltage reading from this nokia battery when isolated from the phone. . All this points to a dead battery from the Fairphone I think? Trouble is their batteries are out of stock!
