Title: Scary Experience!! Phone Dead !! and Revived of course :)
Post by: deepaksrivastav on August 31, 2007, 10:09:16 am
Hi all,

I had just become a member of MotoHell today morning and downloaded the Maneesh's Xclear monster pack and started flashing it !

I got a major shock ! my e398 was dead !
One of my stupid friend "accidently" shook my phone when i was flashing it! (believe me it wasn't an accident!) and phone got shut down !

I tried to load the boot loader, and BAM! Not working !
I somehow knew there are lots of people who have revived the phone since i am keeping track of modding for a long time now.!

I have flashed my phone more than 30 times and this was the first time it got dead!

I connected the USB cable and tried to get into boot loader, the device did not detect!

Finally, i opened the Survival and Revival guide in E398Mod.com and tried the force reboot method by shorting the pins 4 and 5 in the P2K port! and VOILA !!! Was jumping when i saw the boot loader !

Reflashed the phone and everything is working fine now :)

I thank the person who wrote the survival and revival guide!

Just love this phone ! Can't part with it even for a second !

Glad to be a part of this forum :)

Thanks
Deepak

As an e398 modder,you must have experience with forcebooting. Thanx to your 'stupid'friend. ;)
And from here onwards,dont get scared on these occasions. Our e398 is unkillable. :)

Same thing happened to me on my first flash attempt. I had nudged the data cable accidentally when I attempted to move my keyboard. Good thing I had hard copies of the revival guide.  ;D
