Hey guys.
I bought a w705 a few months back.. Great phone and I love it!
But now it is refusing to respond.
Let me explain : When i turn the phone on it works okay. I choose normal mode, enter my PIN and it continues. Then comes the tricky bit.. My wallpaper loads and all the little symbols at the top of the screen (battery bar, reception indicator) load. But the phone "freezes" and stays like this even when you hit a button. After a few minutes the phone reboots itself and trys again but to no avail.
Plzz help me..
Thanking you, Cian

Or flash it with Far manager/jd plugin by downloading generic firmware, if SEUS doesn't work

AFAIK, the W705 is DB2020, so it should respond to farmanger+jdflasher plugin, but its not easy to do, i remember flashing my w580i, very frustrating.

Another option is to send it to SESC probably the easy way.

W705 is DB3210 platform....
the best available option is to flash the phone via seus. i do sometimes encounter the "freeze" situation especially when browsing the net while playing the media and it happened to both my passionate red and luxury silver w705. i think is something to do with the "slow" processor of the phone...

I won't risk all this high tech shizzle! .. I'm going to bring it to my local phone shop for them to send it off. Thank you all nevertheless.

Ah, so A2 uploader can be used i dont think SEUS would work if he/she already has latest firmware
