XS++ 3.1 Doesn't detect it either..
This log is from XS++ 3.1 when I press 2+5 :

You can restore your GDFS where you went to back it up in XS++ (its right above/below it, don't remember the exact position)

Like I said XS++ can't detect it either. I can't get to that section (Backup GDFS etc.).

That's strange...
I had such problem but flashng main and then gdfs with setool holding 2+5 helped me try to flash erom first and then main and only then gdfs. To flash erom first download it and then connect phone to setool holding 2+5 and flash erom file as main. Then connect phone again holding that buttons and flash your main and only then repair your gdfs. Everything of this must be done in setool. Hope this will help

Or try a service cable like cruiser... using COM port and externall battery to revive the phone from the dead... reparing damaged GDFS without backup on db2020 phone like your k800 can be found on www.topsony.com on the english forum...

@Malex

You've done it before and it works. Maybe I'm not doing it right, or I use wrong tool.
OK.. for the first step...
I have :
- SEtool2 lite
- DCU-60
- EROM file
- GDFS Backup
- Main Firmware+FS

My phone is K800

The problem is SEtool2 lite does not detect my phone by holding 'C'.
I Put GDFS Backup in misc window and holding 2+5 then write GDFS i got 'phoneid error 1, Phone info read error !' in the log.

My question :
Is your phone is DB 2020 ?
Did you use SEtool2 lite or SEtool full version ?
Did you use DCU-60 or service cable ?

I have k800(db2020 phone) setool lite. You should start your flashing with flashing main(holding 2+5 of course) and only then gdfs. Other order won't work.
