i have a samsung a800 that wouldnt turn on but when you try to power on the phone the redish led below the external lcd blinks. the phone is 100% perfect inside and out with NO sign of liquid damage.

everytime i try to flash it i get "LOADER DOWNLOADING ERROR"

lots of ppl on various forums have said that it is dead or hardware fault if it wont flash. i gave the battery to a mate with same phone and he charged my battery up all night, when i put it onto my phone it turned on but soon after it froze, i removed/replaced the battery and it was back to square one again. i then tried his battery on my phone (no difference) and my battery on his phone (worked fine)!!! that was yesterday, i just powered my phone on and it worked but froxe on the start up logo. so battery off then on again and im back to the led blinking at me again.

can anyone point me in the right direction please.

Remove the internal standby batt. then reflash your phone.

Good Luck
