What files do I need to flash the sony k750i?
just got the uc-10 cruiser cable today...
now which is the best program for flashing the k750i? Also, how do I determine which set of files I need for my particular k750i? I'm in the U.S., so I need an english set..
Also, I can't connect my phone thru xs++ using the 'hold c' method...its not recognized...the phone is totally bricked and has been for a couple years.... so the battery is probably completely dead.. how will I even connect to ANY program?
Re: What files do I need to flash the sony k750i?
You need a charged battery in order to identify your phone in Setool2Lite:

ok i took the battery to an at&t store and they charged it for me.... but now I still can't do the steps u listed to identify my phone. The phone is bricked! What should I do first?

Try to connect with "2 + 5" instead "C".

that doesn't work....still no response whatsoever from the phone..
Which program is even capable of powering up my totally bricked phone?
EDIT: I used SEMC Tool 8.4 "recover certificate" in the flash ARM menu.. and it said it was successful, but I have no idea what this means or what I should do next to proceed with a full flash..

Using setool2lite, I can use the 'identify' function AND the 'unlock/repair' function but the phone still won't power up at all. What else do I need to flash to make it alive again?
here's the reports:

i think your gdfs file is corrupted and cannot flash to that free software you.,. only authorize technician will do that problem.,. i can do that but im here in phillipines i can do that because i have the tools and i have activated setool3
Re: What files do I need to flash the sony k750i?
aren't there free programs that can flash the gdfs?
Re: What files do I need to flash the sony k750i?
After many failed attempts at flashing this phone, I tried omnius and the program actually put life into my k750i when I used the unlock command! I guess this command repaired whatever else my phone needed in order for it to boot.
But now the problem is that the phone is stuck on the 'please wait' screen and I have no idea how to fix it. The phone was converted to cid51 during the unlock process, so how can I flash firmware to match cid51 when there is no firmware for k750i cid51??
Also, the flash option is totally grayed out and un-selectable. What can I do?? Need this phone working!!

convert CID back to CID49 RED (though it was CID36) and try flashing again
