Hey Jah just read your message now, should I delete the entire folder? or just the contents?

And did your phone screw up during your first few attempts?

@Muzikfreakah

I had the same problem with a 'dead' P990 - just flashing the screen. Had to remove the battery (or you can keep the on/off switch pressed for 10/15 seconds). Replace the battery and try again. It took 3 attempts but managed to flash it and it came back to life

@Muzikfreakah

delete all SE COM ports (Control Panel, Hardware Decives, etc), and try the whole process again.


EDIT: if the Update stops then the firmware files are probably corrupted therefore should be deleted again. Please make sure you are using a broadband connection not a mobile connection (e.g. datacard on laptop).

Or better still after installing all the drivers for the phone, which winxp does automatically....try re-booting your pc and also make sure that pc suite is installed.
