8210 disaster! HELP

[||Joe]

Having a wee problem with an 8210; I appeared to have killed it.

I backed up the EEPROM as instructed, then went on to flash the partial file to unlock, but just after it began it halted giving the error: "CMD Error!"

Guess what: now the phone doesn't turn on at all, and the backup file appears to be corrupt, full of those ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ characters.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
eddie
