I mistakenly overwrote 3 folders in c:/sys/bin(I think!) when installing the walkman 3.0 app and now the phone wont boot.
Ive tried a reflash but the SEUS wont reqognise the phone now, Ive tried XS++ and the recovery options and files but no dice.
Any way to hard reset the p1i with it not starting?

I fear I have a pretty paperweight...

Woe is me!

The absence of those folders on your c: drive shouldn't affect the boot in flash mode.

Remove and reinsert the battery and try again..

Is it possible you delete the folders you overwritten, because P1i will boot from Z drive is C drive unavailable. At your own risk.
