I'm in need of some help, desperately!!!
I have recently purchased a Samsung SGH-V200 and was experimenting with my fone. I have managed to unlock it so it can take any sim card, but i wanted to do something cool.

My friend suggested i should try flashing my fone, so i could totally change the fone.
Well me being me, i tried it using Optiflash 3.7 and now my fone will not switch on!!!

Slow down Elassar!

You should first remove the battery for a second. Replace the bat and try to start your phone. If it still doesn't start, yes, flash your phone again.

Which Firmware or MOD are you flashing to your phone?

I'm guessing your problem is you tried to flash a mod to an old firmware.
V20XXWH2 is the firmware you should have in your phone before trying any mods.

Click on this link to download H2.

If you want some cool mods, come to V200MODSQUAD

icon_biggrin.gif It's ok now, all i did was take the battery out and leave it for a bit and then put it back in!
It works fine now, although i would still like to flash my phone just out of pure curiosity, to see what it does.

Could anyone provide me with some software and a guide on how to do it properly, without failure icon_smile.gif

Thanks
