I was trying to unlocking my Cingular W810i using the vpk patch but the phone is now dead. It won't turn on or do anthing. I did not do any backup. Is there any way I can revive this phone? This is my only phone and at the moment I do not have any phone. The Software version is R4EA031.
Thanks for any help.
We need more information. Connect your phone to xs++ or setool lite and copy your phone log here.
Nice day
Phone is prolly not dead. It's likely you need to reflash to make it wake up again. Post your output for a more specific answer as stated.
Sorry all - I stepped away but was still logged in. Here is the log from XS++. I am trying to flash the same Main firmware back on the phone but all I see is 17:30:40| Sending db2010_cid49red_flash_r2a003.bin.... It's been like this for about an hour. Is this normal? If I tried to stop XS++ is says stopping the flashing may cause damage to the phone but it does not look like it is doing anything. PLEASE help me!!

stop it.. no need to worry just yet
then download setool
make a bake-up of your gdfs first of all
then use setool to flash main...
backing up gdfs is a little bit tricky, meaning that in the middle of the opperation you will need to remove batery and insert it back and then press ok and you will be asked to reinsert the cable holding c

Ok, I was able to back up the GDFS after couple of tries. Now I am trying to flash the main (R4EA031) but I am getting this error in the log: SFA block not accepted. (32/10884),error:01FF. Here is what I have done. I extract the zipped file and add it to Firmware upgrade pack in Setool and following the instruction. Also, do I have to continue holding the C button when the phone is detected. Please guys I really need your help with this.

Sorry for the double post. My head is really not straigt right now.
The MAIN must be added in the Files tab, not firmware upgrade pack tab.
Please read a tutorial before you use SE Tool, it may brick your phone easily if you're presing buttons randomly ;)
I was able to revive the phone and unlock it too. I did not flash the main, all I did was use SIMLockPatchGen_v2.1 to make a new unlock patch and apply it to the phone and it worked fine. I have to be more careful next time.
Thanks guys for all your help.
