I had a problem just a few mins ago. I updated my acoustic files using XS++ and it worked fine. Then I restarted my k800i and it wont turn on. Then I got help from a gr8 man and he told me to do this. Luckily now its restored. So here it is for you all


-first install USBFlash Driver http://www.kulankendi.com/index2.php?pStrona=download
(If you have already install the usb drivers like I did then you dont have to install the drivers again)

Now start the kulankendi client application and use username "KULAN" and password "KULAN". Now check mark the "EROM UPDATE" option. Then simply click on the "FLASH MOBILE" button.

Now while holding the 2 and 5 keys simultanously plug in the usb DCU-60 cable. It will finish updating EROM within secs.

HURRAY!!!!! K800 is back.

Now I have sorted the problem. While looking back at the XS++ log to search what I did wrong? may b i just unplugged the phone while the application was finalizing the write process. So the EROM got corrupted.

KK client just updated my rom. thanks KK and thanks tranced for your help...

Does that work for W580i? I sure hope it does cause my wife broke her samsung j600 and wants my K800i lol i'd be happy if it works on my walkman phone.

i just used wotan and it updated my phone in 5 seconds and all my files are still here: pics, texts etc...
i had to buy and account from wotan with 1 credit for 7 euros around £5.50 and then once they sent me the username and password i put it in the box in the bottom right hand corner then i inserted the usb into the computer then clicked start then inserted the other end of the usb to my phone and wotan done its stuff. thanks for having these forums up as i learnt how to fix my phone from this i hope my informaion was helpful in some way.

Hello i have the same problem with my se k800i
i see 5 or 6 red flashing lights .. and the phone goes not on

when i try kulankendi or wotan i can not flash the phone when Press and hold 'C' of 2 and 5 there is nothing.

In this post people said that you need to install the SE update service.

i have tried that but there is also an point were you have to press en hold c . . . when i do that the installation is not going further.

The computer don't reconices my phone, the cable is good i've tested that with another phone.

Do i need the usb flash driver then?

can someone help me to install these driver. when i put the cable in the computer and the phone there is NOT found new hardware.

of is threre another way to solve this?

thank you
