Hello m8s
I've just found this place and i love it!!
Sitting here bored last night,with all my stuff working fine,( even europeonline is working, bringing down several gigs a day with no incompletes) and no MOSCs or goldies to play with i had the bright idea (stupid really) of updating the software on my favourite phone ...Nokia 7110 V4.84.
This is where my problems start,as i'm running xp most flash utilities don't work.
In fact the only one i could get to work was nokia DCT3 service pro by XPMobile, so all the step by step guides i have don't mention this .So being a smartarse i went ahead with the upgrade anyway.
I made a backup then went ahead and flashed the phone with a full flash, it seemed to sort of work but on redoing the faid etc. i must of buggered it up somewhere as the phone came on but did'nt like it's new software and kept turning it's self off and when it was on i could not access any menu's etc. everything looked ok to me (sp locks closed then opened ,recalc faid etc using Nokia Tool v3.03) but as i had tried everything i could think of (not a lot) it was time for bed .
So morning comes to a soggy Newcastle and logic says DON'T PANIC ....
...reflash the back up and all will be well and that nasty need to tinker with stuff that i know not enough about would have been well satisified........................................................PANIC............
On reflashing the backup in a half asleep state i may (thats a laugh) have flashed to the wrong address and now it will not power up at all!!!! ..I'm going liggy eyed at reading different things abut this sort of thing bearing in mind that the only softeware i can get to work is the afore mentioned and the phone will not power up.
PS I love this phone nearly as much as my kids as i've had loads
of different phones but this is the best for txt writing thanks to the roller (builders fingers) . If this dos'nt work i will take the youngest lads 6110 off him and if he complains i'll stop his pocket money HE-HE
Sorry about the long post but .....it's good to linger!!!!!
PPS PLEEEASE HELP!!!!
