@DJ Fusion - Sorry dude, i've had no luck in finding a away around it. I ended up taking it to my local service centre where that had to re flash it for me. Don't know if I ever want to try it again.

I emailed SE and I think anyone who has the same problem should also email them so they know that people are having this problem with their update service.

Cheers,

Hi kenski. Yeah the phone is fine now it's got R2AA003 on it now. I think I'll wait till I stop hearing these kind of stories before I try again, or maybe I'll try again about a few weeks before the warranty runs out so if it happens again, I can just take it back the service centre

I wonder if there is this much trouble with the P900 update service?

But I still encourage people who have this problem to let SE know about it.

Cheers,

Hi reeza, I'm glad to hear that your local SE service center was able to restore the phone for you - I thought I might have nuked it for good.

I'll let you know how I go.

Same problem here guys (Unbranded K700i, DSS-25). S-E auto update to 99% then dead as a proverbial. Feco, would appreciate knowing how you got on with Totalserver/DaVinci. Did you have to debrand, kill RSA or what? Good luck guys.

@Nipper

You have to buy at least 1 log at Davinci Server ( I like Davinci not Multiserver) here: http://www.davinciteam.com/

Then you download the logger Client 10.1, enter your username and your pass, and download the firmware that you want, in any language that you want.

You will need a T28 cable, after you download the files, connect the phone to the cable and press flash, do not check the finalization button!!

After you flash it completely, you choose the Finalization button and press flash again.
