you should have done a backup of the gdfs before executing.

i think topsony has gdfs.

**note: you cant use someone else gdfs**

what do you mean by someone else's GDFS !!!
not even the same phone .........i mean if i have a w700i ....i can't use use the GDFS backed up from another W700i !!

??

i wrote k750i GDFS on my w700i after reading this thread http://forums.se-nse.net/inde[....]436&pid=94151&st=0&#entry94151


it helped putting the GDFS in the right format and i flashed my phone with w700i firmware .......
now the phone turns on shows the SE logo the start vibration occurs .... the phone says please wait ..... the bar starts progressing but then it halts quarter way through and stays there forever ( 2 hours ) !!!

what is the problem !!
