Yes, the LEDS signify an EROM problem, as they did on K750/i.......



So if you have the same flashing LEDs as I described, then I'd guess so.

To get the wotan client to detect your phone, you need to hold down '2' and '5' together and then plug the phone into your DCU-60 USB cable.

Note: I didn't need to buy a credit for this. *thumbs up to the wotan team*

Had the IR LED blinking symptoms yesterday after removing my battery in an attempt to check for an update using SEUS. Wotan's client updated the EROM and the phone was fine... till this morning

Now my phone is in a constant reboot > single white screen > 'searching' > repeat cycle

I'm letting it go in the hope the phone is trying to repair itself as a few other posts have mentioned.
My reality check just bounced.

K800 doesn't seem to be the most reliable of phones



Not just K800i, I had a K610i 'brick' after half a day

Hi,
I hope you guys will be able to help me. I have the same problem with my K800 and I've tried both pressing the "C" and the "2+5" buttons and nothing happens. I've tried doing this both on my home PC and on my work PC and nothing seems to work. It just can't recognize my phone, why would that be?

I can see the infrared light blinking the same as everyone and I'm using the cable that came with the phone. I have credits on Wotan and I do the steps at told, start Wotan, check credit, start and then plug cable into phone...I'm getting quiet annoyed now as it seems everyone else was able to get theirs to work appart from me...

HELP!!!
