Hi

I'm essentially a newb at this, and i only heard of flashing yesterday. Anyway, i tried to do as many have done before, and turn my K750i into a W800. I used XS++ and flashed the Flash Main Firmware and Flash File Sytem files without a hitch. Then when I came to Customise File System, instead of selecting the long-winded way, i tried the quick way and, probably deserved, got a bricked phone. Now I loaded it back onto XS++ this morning and tried to re-flash the Customise File System but its been 7 hours and its just said waiting for the phone to reconnect' for the whole time. Is there any way to ressusitate my phone?

hi

how'd you lost it? if you want to make a back up of your gdfs use xs++.

here's a guide and much more: Tutorial | Flashing/GDFS-operations/Uploading files with XS++
