Hello,
I recently washed my phone in the washing machine. I know, that sucks, well I let it dry out for a few days, and turned it on, and it worked! I was pumped, well a couple hours later, it was off. I turned it back on, thinking the battery died, and i got the "Hellomoto" screen, then it just stayed there. The screen went black after a few seconds, then turned white. Then it repeats from there.
The phone will boot in flash mode. I am running SW ver: R374_G_0E.42.10R_A
I did buy an iphone, and I was wondering really, is there a way to get it running again? I would like to get my phone book out of it, or else I lost all my contacts.
Thank you!

My V3 exhibited exactly the same behavior - I didn't wash it - I bricked it trying to remove some menu items with P2KTools VS.
So, I flashed it with RDS Lite and apristel_premod_mp_v1_c.rar and it worked!
Totally different phone now. much faster to use, louder, sleeker UI, although I miss some of the colorful icons.
Here's the thing: my phonebook was still intact! (Pics, videos, ringtones were wiped, though.)

reflashed with the firmware from the boot loader. Did not fix the problem, I guess it's a lost cause.

Ok, this doesn't match the topic but I wanted to post it somewhere. To delete downloaded ring tones form Razr V3a you don't have to completely remove all ring tones. Do this:
Click the middle Menu button
Click on Multimedia (film strip with red arrow icon)
Click on Sounds (speaker icon)
Options
Delete
Delete ring tone? YES
You can also rename a downloaded ringtone by doing this when they download as a number instead of the ring tone name Example: Downloaded as 1196991878033 Rename to Aerosmith Love in an LF8R
