hi guys, every program that asks you to press 'c' and plug in cable (seus,davinic,semc etc) just dont do anythign at all when i press c and plug in!
the only program which detectes my phone is sonics1120, which is probably because that is the only program which doesnt require you to press c to turn it on(i read somewhere to try with * instead, that did nothing however).however when attempting to flash i always get the error
''Sending superblock command no ack'' after a couple of seconds.

i am stuffed! i really want to flash my w800i because the buttons 1,2,3 and down and right on jouystick do not work, and i know its down to firmware, so what do i do??

here is the message in sonics, i just need to know what to do to solve the error

its not down to firmware. my guess is water damage.

The error you are getting is a power issue problem, often a flat battery or dodgy cable, but in your case it will probably be a dodgy connection on your flash IC from water damage.

Plus your phone is brown, flashing it requires you to convert it to RED i think first.
