i accidentaly let my phone's battery drain out.
when i try to charge it again, the famous brod came up.

this is my first brod, so i search and search.
i found that most suggestion to fix brod is flashing MAIN and FS, some say to replace boot file. its easy i though..

but the problem is my phone is not detected by pc, not a single blip.
so i cant flash it or do anything.
any help..?




sorry if this is a repost, i search but find nothing.

Your problem looks like you have a flat battery. You need to find a way to charge your battery other than through the phone. Because a phone with BROD can not charge a battery.

Yes thats right. You need to charge the battery somehow. To flash the phone, you need some charge on battery.

Btw how you know its BROD ?

Yes, deddot thats BROD.

As your battery is 75% filled, you can flash it now.
