sure thats fine, EROM is in main part - evertime you try to complete after flashing only the recovery then the EROM will be erased again. Flash again with out finalization. |

lol worse is not an option - i am telling you the problem - The ERASEABLE READ ONLY MEMORY (EROM) has been erased. Flash the recovery file without finalization - very important! (donot turn on)Then after Flash the main and fs files with finalization.
p.s. whats with all the sighs? I am sorry i am boring you..............

ok look this is what i'm getting.
You are telling me to flash the recovery then immediately try to flash it with another file.
So flash Main Recover V800
then
flash Main with FS using the Z800 firmware with finalization.
Now here is the thing.
The leds are on (which mean the phone is considered to be on)
If I finish the recovery, the phone is still on.
So I can't switch the phone onner than it is when it asks me to.
Do you mean, finish the recovery, take out the battery, put it back in the dock, do flash of new firmware?
Remember I'm a big idiot noob with this, so I need baby steps.
edit:
this is what i get after the recovery and trying to flash with the R1Y.
Client Version 12.8
Power on the phone!
Detected SonyEricsson: Z1010/V800.
Status Ok, OTP Close, CID29, PAF1
IMEI: ------------- removed
Flash file CID:36
Error! Phone CID and Flash file CID - mismatch!
Phone CID 29
You must use CID29 Flash Files For this phone!
Execution Time - 00:00:06
Error: 0x003331

No you are not an idiot, but the attitude of being F******* P***** doesnt really help. Best to calm when facing problems.
By the way - about "dont not turn on" that was a typo.
1. Flash recovery file skip finalization as you are currently doing.
2. When finished disconnect, remove battery, replace battery, rconnect phone.
3. Flash main and fs with finalization.

typing *sighs* is a common thing when I'm feeling depressed, not directing at you.
I'm appreciating the help.

ok well thats a good thing. Are you sure davinci can actually flash R1Y firmware?
Also what recovery file did you use? maybe its est to flash to an older version of firmware which is CID29 if you are not 100% dvinci can flash those files. |

it seems to me that my phone is called CID29 and the R1y is CID 39 and doesn't want to let me install it because they are different CIDs.
I'm hoping it can install it, thats what I assumed since it's from their server.

You phone will be CID29 yes. But most server software can flash any CID flashes to any phone - thats what TMS and setool do. Can you tell me what recovery files there are? If CID36 then try to flash with that. |

sorry, our posts got muddled up, i did nt mean to try again as i very much doubt it will work. ater recovery flash with out finalization i would flash older CID29 files - at least you will have a living phone. |

hmm, thats interesting, man davinci sucks. As the flash failed i bet you have erom erased again. So lets try this again:
1. flash recovery file the R1D003 one skip finalization
2. Flash main and fs R1D003 files with finalization
battery should hold out for a few more goes. - If not you will have to charge it in another phone or get a new one i guess....... |

Lost connection with phone. Try to flashing on lower speed. Close all applications, especially ICQ and WinAmp, check the battery charge, check cable connection and try again.
ok one more time then I'll cry
