I have the same problem. My computer hung up during the reflashing. I am willing to send it to Old_Fool to be fixed if I can get his address.

Of if there is a way to fix on this end.

The phone does not load when the * and # plus the power keys are pushed at the same time.

I've already emailed you about my situation (look for an email from ho_che).

I'd also like to add that I do in fact have backups for my phone. I made a full backup, pds backup, and a boot loader backup, using FlaskBackup 2.62.

Any information regarding how I can restore my phone will be greatly appreciatied.

You can't use a GSM phone with sprint.

I have (or maybe already had) a motorola v3 Razr.

The phone became dead after I was trying to load a new flash.

There were no way to turn the phone: if I press "power" button, keyboard lighted up for about 5-10 sec, Windows XP reported "Unknown USB Device" error, then keypad light went away. I did not have any other choice, but "testpoint". (For more info search YouTube for "v3 testpoint")

With testpoint I was able to make my Windows to recognize the phone. I loaded boot version 8.26, which allowed me to power my phone in flash mode by pressing 3 buttons.

Now, the problem. It seems that even when PST reports that flash is successful, the phone still have no software loaded. When switching to flesh mode - I see "SW not found" message.


What should I do?

When you flashed was it a monster pack or just the flash? Sounds like you might have to rebuild PDS, but not positive. Old_Fool any suggestions?

Depent on what flash i put it on in the forst place ( full name if possible).
You should not put boot 8.26 because it hard to do anything with that boot.
Test point is just gave you a direct access to the flash chip to flash nothing more, if your PDS is mess up by the wrong flash then does not matter what you use it will not work untill you have repair the PDS
