Okay, I've been reading some of the posts regarding broken V3, mine is quite the same, doesn't turn on after reflashing and I tried opening via bootloader (*+#+power) and still it doesn't work.

I flashed it using MultiFlashFlex that comes with PST. I flashed it with this file:

R374_G_0E.42.0ER_PDS005_LP0003_DRM0001_JPJAVA_G_0E_V3_01_0AR_SE8617MXX F1126_1FF

then ate I lunch. icon_blink.gif


when I came back it says there it was successful.

I tried turning it on but nada

I got too busy finding a way to turn the darn thin on I found a log file on my desktop.

here are the contents:

I was too over confident in flashing because I tried it on my Motorola E398
and it worked perfectly.

Please help me revive my V3. I wish I could easily use a phoenix down but this ain't Final Fanatsy

consider me as a n00b amongst n00b. I got too careless. Please help me

Thanks

P.S. I also want to know if this will requires opening the unit and using the test points?

IF by pressiing #,*+power and fone is not in flash mode or reconized by PC then yes you need to TP. But i think your baatery went out during flash and so you don't have any juice left to power it on .

I tested the battery on a different Motorola V3 and its 3 bars. I don't think it ran out of juice.

actually, I tried plugging it on my PC but it only recognizes the phone briefly, not long enough for me to do flashing.

Please help me find a way to revive this without TP I have a bad eye sight.

I didn't bring the phone today, but probably the S/W is there so what do I do?

Mine does the same thing. I can get a bootload start up, but no screen. I can even flash from that point, but it won't change anything. While I can flash/flex, I can't browse the files or seems.
