I have a S300. I flashed the phone with S30XXWB1 and everything went okay. However, when I turned on the phone and tried to check my voicemail, I get an error tone.
I can't see what's going on because the screen on my phone is broken.
Can someone help me figure out what happened to my phone? I am in the USA...

I'm using the cable that came with the phone when I bought it.

Okay, I successfully flashed the phone...however, now I can't seem to send out calls or take them!
Did the flash change my IMEI? My screen is broken so I'm really scared because I can't see what I'm doing, and I don't know why I'm getting an error message...
I am using T-Mobile in the USA...

Bump...
Apparently, I didn't change the IMEI...but I've tried unlock codes and none of them worked.
Please, someone help me with this problem...I'm still getting an error tone when I try to call out.

Indeed, it was all a bandwidth problem...I use the phone in the US and the firmware/bandwidth was set for the UK. Everything is good now!
Except for the screen that is. Ha ha.

Yeah, I have. Approx $70 for a new set (I'm kind of cheap...so that's a no-no). Plus I'm paranoid about ruining the phone while replacing them.
Hoping someone will put a S307 up for a cheap buy-it-now.

You have a lot of guts flashing a phone with a broken screen. There is no knowing what you may have done if something goes wrong... Either way, you have guts.
