Have unlocked my V800, but it started blinking after that.

Then tried to upgrade the GDF file from total multi server(Repair_Blinking_V800.GDF), but that doesn't work, it is still blinking now.

Please Help................

Thx a a a lot !!!

Already tried the repair option in setool2, but didn't work.

Do i have to download the GDF file from setool and try again?

kcli2,

yes you need to download GDFS for V800 and do like here:

of course replace S700gdfs with V800gdfs...

I can send you the file if you need...

i planned to answer, but am a bit tired so too slow ...

blinking is when you screw up your SE phone with bad unlock (or flash) and when you turn it on the screen only blinks white, the phone doesn't power on and you can not turn it off... more technical: the phone blinks when you destroy phone's GDFS (eprom) area for some reason... and you need to repair it
hope this explains

@vee

yes, i was just about to write a long explanation, thankyou yours was better. I think also because of a bad file system in some firmwares. When full flash files become available we will have no problem. come on cruiser!

gbrooks3,

yes... that's what makes me a bit worried... sometimes to repair a blinking phone you need to reflash full phone MAIN+FS, after GDFS repair... and for V800 not possible yet... but anyway it was done in this case with bad unlock with TMS (i don't belive in story about bad FS that TMS team told, because it was working before unlocking... it is just to complex process that sometimes fails... you are touching eeprom and lot can go wrong, even damage the FS - but that's another story ).

govigog,

no problem...
