I wanted to transfer a new flash theme so I did the usual thing and connected my phone to the a2uploader. It wouldn't detect my phone and later when I tried to switch on my G705 it vibrates a little and the keys light up, but not the screen, then it goes dead. Before I did all this there was at least 50% battery left. I tried leaving it to charge for a while but it refuses to charge, the red light on the phone won't light up and the charger does not get heated up.

A quick update: the phone still cannot turn on but now can be detected by a2uploader and SEUS. Btw how do I reflash the software? SEUS says I have the latest software and there's no option to reflash the phone.

Click Re-install in SEUS. If it doesn't, then you have got to change your CDA to Western-Europe or Adriatic to be able to re-install.

Sorry I'm really having trouble here. I understand that I need the main firmware, the fs and the custom pack to flash in a2uploader right? I can't find the fs or the custom files anywhere. As for SEUS how do I force it to reinstall the firmware? I'm tried changing the CDA but this method doesn't work as my phone will not switch on and change the CDA to complete the process.
