8210 flashing probs...HELP!

[CoCo]

First of all I’d just like to say hello to everyone on this very informative forum, keep up the good work people. :)

Ok now for the problem. :rolleyes:

My M8 has asked me if I can fix his 8210 that won’t switch on, he was given the phone in this state.

This 8210 won’t switch on so I thought I would flash it by using rolis 477 with a full back up I made from my 8210.

The phone starts to flash ok but then a message pops up that says:
“Flash Erasing Error
Must Receive 91 00 FF But Received FF FF FF
Check Vpp, Vbatt Voltage, Phone Type”

I have tried different flasher programs but none of them will do this phone.

Can anyone explain how to sort this. :confused:

Thanks, CoCo.

hi
it could be that the connection to your fone-----1- the contacts may need cleaning----2-or sometimes the plastic bit which holds your battery is not seated right into the fone i have had this prob myself a few times wen flashed i just held the plastic connecter tight till flash finished a little arkwerd but it worked!!
hope this helps

Hi thanks for the reply,
I have tried cleaning the contacts & holding the connector but still no joy. :(

I can flash the eeprom area & the PPM area ok it seems to be the MCU area (00200000 – 00340000)
This is when I get the message as in my first post, it pops up at 00261000.

I tried using “KnocK” to flash the MCU area as it has a function that allows you not to erase the area before flashing, but still no joy. :(

Cheers, CoCo.

Hi M8,
Just to let you know that I gave up with the phone eventually & gave it to my M8 who used it for spare parts.
