I had a quarter stuck behind a first compartment (smaller square one) that only allowed it to open ~ 1.5" ( I have a SonyEricsson T616 phone which fits great into that compartment ).

I played with the lid and the other compartment, pushed, pulled and dislodged the coin, but after I pushed everything back into place, the lid will not open on its own. When I push on it it clicks out of the "locked" position, but it is not pulled up, like the other, longer compartment is.

Is there a spring of some sort behind the cover? What makes that compartment go up? Could somebody suggest a fix for that?

Thanks.

Yeah, there's a little spring at one end that has to hook into a hole to push the cover up. It's a bit of pain to get it lined up, but assuming you didn't lose it, you should be able to get it in place.

Is it possible you have another coin (like a dime) jammed in there? I use the trays in opposite order: the one closer to the front I use for coins (its deeper) and the one closer to the rear I use for my phone.

I had the same lost-coin problem. I couldn't get it out so I asked the dealer to give it a shot while I had it in for other service. They ended up breaking it and they ended up replacing the whole assembly. Since then, I don't keep change in there
