My Nokia phone seems to be damaged in some way. According to online forums the solution is to heat this part of the phone:
How do you go about 'heating' this component? What would heating it do? Wipe its memory?

go and buy a cheap unlocked phone until you can get your prob with Telstra sorted out. Harvey Norman were advertising them for just $29!

"Julia finally got something right. Older people don't vote Labor, because they have seen too many incompetent, mismanaging, money-wasting Labor governments"
?It doesn't matter [who the leader is] the Labor Party is rotten, the policies stink, the lies insufferable, and the waste intolerable. The Muppets could do a better job!?
?All that's needed now is a small miracle to rid us of the worst prime minister and the worst government in Australia's history?
"If the WORLD as a whole cut ALL emissions tomorrow, the average temperature of the planet's not going to drop for several hundred years, perhaps over on thousand years" - Tim Flannery, Climate Commissioner
"It is a remarkable fact that despite the worldwide expenditure of perhaps US$50 billion since 1990, and the efforts of tens of thousands of scientists worldwide, no human climate signal has yet been detected that is distinct from natural variation" - Bob Carter, Research Professor of Geology, James Cook University, Townsville
"Currently, China and India combined emit 20 times as much as Australia each day, and that factor is increasing rapidly. Australia's annual savings by 2020 could be emitted by China and India within five days" - Dr. David Evans former Govt Climate Adviser.
?What I see is a country bravely beating along to the agenda of some ideological people, in this case the socialist left of the ALP and the Greens, to take away what is a natural advantage. At the end of the day, we are paying someone else to use our coal? - Peter Costello, former Federal Treasurer -
?Wayne Swan threatening the Banks, is a bit like being savaged by a dead sheep!?
Yep
to the op have you thought of a hair dryer?
But I'd be VERY cautious about accepting advice from posters on an anonymous forum.
By the looks of it, you suspect there's a fault caused by improper soldering on a particular component in your 'phone, and someone's suggested you should apply heat in an attempt to re-flow the solder to re-make the connection. Though this does have merit, the method by which they've suggested you do it will more likely lead to more problems rather than less.
Consider this: the temperature which the solder will need to get to to re-flow, is greater than both the operating and storage temperatures of the IC you're trying to re-connect. What do you think will happen?

And if the phone really does have that fault, it was never a good of merchantable quality and he is legally entitled to either a full replacement or his money back and that is his choice, not Telstra's as well.
Corse he doesnt get the money back for the calls he made.
Unfortunately I have agreed over the phone to allow them to resolve the issue by waiving the cancellation fee. I have probably lost my chance of pursuing them further.

Plus if decides to play with heating the board, could invalidate the warranty due to heat damage.

Absolutely guaranteed to do that in fact.
Corse they may not even bother to check inside etc.
