Title: died in boot screen
Post by: morpheus5 on September 18, 2007, 10:17:22 am
i got a new e398 recently, and i tried to flash it, many software i tried, SHXCodec, FB2.62 and FB3. I got no problem in the flashing part, but i cant bootup the new firmware, i can only see the boot screen and then it turned off by itself. Any clues what is happening?

It would be helpful if you could mention the MP that you were trying to flash bro. Would also like to find out if you were able to flash with RSD Lite or MFF? As an afterthought, please include the bootloader version as well  ;D

I think you didn't do the R372 to R373 conversion. That happened to me too when i tried to flash for the first time a R373 firmware over a R372.

So you should flash the 42R_for_all CG7 only (http://www.e398mod.com/content/view/65/30/ (http://www.e398mod.com/content/view/65/30/)) if you don't want to lose your bluetooth adress and edit hex to bring it back or restore pds backup to fix it
OR
flash the 42R_for_all FullFlash (http://www.e398mod.com/content/view/506/30/ (http://www.e398mod.com/content/view/506/30/)) and restore a PDS backup to fix the bluetooth adress

Please read this tutorial before you do anything: http://mirror.softcox.com/e398-to-ROKR/ (http://mirror.softcox.com/e398-to-ROKR/)

Let me advice u about software that u must to Flash

-Flash&Backup = for backup ur phone be4 Flash or Convert(This is First Step)
-RSDLite/MFF = for flashing ur phone to new MP or Previous MP
-SHXCodec = To extract ur MP by CG1, CG2, and others
-MRS = To fix ur PDS phone..

Done.. so what u've done to ur phone.. did u follow the rules??
