> Bricked my new P1i while flashing
Bookmark topic
I am in the US, and purchased a P1i. When it arrived, it was an Arabic CDA. I did some research, downloaded XS++ (Sinyar), and backed up the GDFS. Then, I selected the GW1 item: P1i_R9G007_R2A03_R6D23_CDA162022_1(GW1)_R6D22.gdfs and sent it to the phone. Next, I ran the SEUS and it detected it as Global World 1 phone. It began the update process and I switched to other tasks. I checked back every once in a while, and it progressed. The last time I checked back it didn't show a success message, but was at the program start screen. I figured the phone was flashed, so I disconnected it, inserted the SIM, and started it.
At this time, the phone would not turn on. I re-ran SEUS and it could not detect the phone model. XS++ now says:

I tried restoring my GDFS backup, but it cannot access GDFS to restore the backup. I tried re-sending the CDA Version change from XS++ but it just sits at "23:01:16| Activating GDFS..." and does not continue.
From reading other similar posts for other phones, I think I may need to do a "full flash" at this point, or I have completely bricked my phone after a half day of use. Any advice?

gbrooks3, that's fantastic news for me... thanks for the very encouraging reply!
Now, should I wait for the new version to be released, or grovel and beg for a pre-release like a dog at the dinner table?
I'm in a crunch for time (I'm writing some end-user software for this phone) so I ended up buying yet another P1i, which hopefully arrives early next week.

Replying to self...
Just found the right spot on se-nse for the 3.1 prerelease. I'll play around and see if I can figure it out. I believe I now need to find a firmware file and try the new smartphone flash feature

Holy , my P1i is unbricked! THANK YOU gbrooks3! Do you have a paypal tip jar somewhere that needs some appreciation?
One thing: the link in the help file to "P1i Ressurection Package" didn't work when I clicked it. Viewing properties on the page showed the URL as:
res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\[....]brooks3/XS++%20Dev/P1_CCPU.zip The correct URL was obvious so I just pasted it into my browser.
One other thing for anyone wondering... I flashed using XS++ inside Parallels on a Macbook Pro. The only glitch (and it may not be parallels related) is that I have to click "Connect" twice while holding "C" down on the phone to get a connection. The first time you click Connect it fails. The second time it works fine. I think this may have something to do with how Parallels shares the USB devices.
Again THANKS gbrooks3!
