Did you flash with elf-enable MP? If you did it delete elf folder in TF first.

MotoManiacsĀ®  - Before that, Its was raining and i use it under the rain. Then when i restart the hp with 'chat", and here comes the problem.
packpunk - Yeap, i even remove my tf card and try to turn it on but failed..

I cant even charge my hp. When i insert the charger cable, nothing happens

Whats HP? :S

If it works in bootloader I dont see why I doesnt work when you flash it.

Packpunk, I thought of the same thing...

Do you have some full backup to restore? That blinking white screen means some CG is bad, at least from my experience.. Or that your elfloader doesnt work..

oh sry, hp = handphone.

the bootloader works, but when the phone is turn on, just the keypad hv lights, but the screen is blank. after a while, it went off again.

and yeah, i tried restoring the backup and even try flashing new mp but same thing happens

maybe u need apply a flash without patches and see what happen...
if u can enter to bootloader just flash a backup or other MP... remove before ur TF and if u have "ELF" delete the folder.

you need to open your phone.
open KeyTone, then LCD. Then speakers (buzzer).....do this carefully. Don't screw any micro component !!
Check the connector Socket, if pins not correct, fix it with Solder
Before assemble again, you need to drain your phone (can do with sun light).
last, check your batt, and flash with new MP
hope this can HELP. good luck man  ;) ;)

Main steps :
1.disassemble
2.drain (keep your phone dry)
3.check connector
4.assemble
5.flash again

(i think this what he mean)

Do NOT use SOLDER inside your phone!!

Completely disassemble your phone - http://www.e398mod.com/content/view/471/25/

Than put it carefully back together and see if that helps anyway. Please be careful.

Hey NiKSY,
I did it a few times but no news. I guess I hv to throw it away..


Title: Re: Phone cant turn on... Can someone pls help?
Post by: SHENo on September 20, 2008, 05:47:37 am
guys, notice this !! >:( >:(
i NEVER RECOMMENDED to SOLDER, except if there is anything wrong with connector.
(so, do not take any miss communication here !!!)
check connector between batt and phone. bad connection often causing any blank screen, or white screen.
I ever experience problem with charger/USB connector, i disassemble phone then found it.
Then i solder, my phone is okey now, really top performance now,,,
just trying to help. it's yours now....

 and @ JEMAU MANAK (thanks to you) for this
Main steps :
1.disassemble
2.drain (keep your phone dry)
3.check connector
4.assemble
5.flash again

trims a lot  ;)

What I saw on your video I think that the battery is ok, I think your PDS area is corrupted, you must try TP.

Im starting to believe that your phone has some hardware failure... After just flashing 42R_for_all FULL nothing happens? Bootloader info doesnt change?

NiKSY
After flashing 42r_for_all FULL, bootloader did changed. R373........42r
But still, i am unable to turn on my phone.
I just flashed motohell Mp, and now, the bootloader did NOT change.
