Bricked w580i, SEtool2 help

Long story short, I got a new phone and was trying to transfer over my contacts to my SIM card when the phone all of a sudden locked up. I left it for a few hours and nothing happened, so I pulled the battery and tried restarting it. It was done, flashing red lights on the C button.

I went looking through these forums and found some guides. However, using SEtool2 I ran into some problems. The program sees my phone, but will not read the data from it. I'm afraid it might not be fixable, but here is the log that I am getting:

ChipID:9900,EMP protocol:0301
BOOTROM MODE DETECTED
Speed:921600
Flash ID check:897E
Flash props sent ok
OTP LOCKED:1 CID:51 PAF:1 IMEI:01127100787167 CERT:N/A
FLASH CID:52 COLOR:RED
no ack during gdfs_readvar !
Can't read SCRC unit
Elapsed:93 secs.


Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

your EROM is damaged.

Phone's Dead and Redlight blinking | Sony Ericsson Flashing

I don't think it's the battery but check it anyway.

Thanks for replying. I have tried that method and get the same error. I'm certain the EROM is damaged.

It blinks 6 times when I try to turn the phone on. When I try the Identify option, it gets to the "FLASH CID" line, then the status bar gets stuck on "repairing".

When I try the Unlock/Repair option this is what I get:

ChipID:9900,EMP protocol:0301

Any other ideas?

Still looking to see if anyone has any ideas. Thanks.

Try to find someone who has Dream Box SE. It can repair your phone via testpoint.

Or change Flash chip (Hardware) and make Emptyboard procedure....
New update of Setool 3 box can repair DB2020 GDFS also with testpoint
