Bookmark topic
I'm tryiing this now, as my K800 has gone belly up, and I'm gonna try and install the new firmware.
Have downloaded WotanClient, and followd the instructions...
Switch off phone
Run WotanClient
clear password and login fields
hold 2+5 then connect the cable (computer recognises USB device connected)
release 2+5 keys, and click start on WotanClient
The status box in the client now says...
Connect your phone, pressing "C"
waiting...
phone found.
and nothing else seems to be happening, either on the phone, or on wotanclient.
How long does it normally take to re-install the firmware, and what should happen as it is doing it?
Thanks

Managed to get it working - didn't realise I had to buy credits from WotanServer - but read through the Guide on their site, and my phone is now working fine again.

this thread is about upgrading erom, not firmware upgrading. though im glad you could have solved your problem.
xs++ v3.1 would have done the job too.

Hope someone can help, I have been trying this for ages!
I have downloaded Wontonclient, load it up, delete login and password, click START.
Next screen says
Connect your phone, pressing "C"
waiting....
I then insert the battery, hold down 2 +5 and plug the phone in.
It quickly comes up phone found, before changing screens, and it says:
Define login and password
==FAILED==
Duration 00:00
Any help????

do this:
2. Clear the login settings
3. When you are connecting your phone press and hold 2+5
4. Press Start button
5. It will now upgrade your EROM
6. Finished

Sorry, dont know how to post a screenprint.
How long should it take?
I have plugged an old K750 in and that came up for the firmware upgrade etc, so i know the program is running correctly, I just cant get my K800 to switch on!!

Yes, I get a red blinking light when I try to switch it on, or when I plug the charger in.
