My w580i is dead after inserting battery....!!!!!

I changed the sim card and inserted back the battery of my w580i, but my cell never switched on again, only red light blinks. I took it to a service center and they said dat there's problem in its software and that due to lots of other customers' problems they can't repair it before 4-5days, also demanded a huge sum. Now i want to repair it myself but the problem is that i am a newbie in this field. I've come to know that SEtool2 can help me get it repaired but i don't know how??

I connected my set through its usb data cable to my system and run these commands in SEtool2 lite v1.08.. Unlock/Repair , Identify , Read GDFS, Read Flash. I run these commands separately connecting and disconnecting the cable each time. I got the following information for each command:

Nice day

Since You Have A Red LED Blinking, Your EROM Is Dead. Just Follow Jasmins Link One Post Above.

WARNING: The GDFS You Are Talking About Is Not Yours. Its One Downloaded From Net. GDFS Is Unique To Your IMEI. Flashing A GDFS From Another Phone (Even Same Model And Same Firmware) Will Turn Your Phone Into An Expensive Brick.

Thanks alot jasmin and Mohammad umer for ur kind reply... it was really very helpful for me... could u also please tell me where to get erom from, apart from topsony.com as i can't download files yet.

It's not necessary to download the EROM file. Try to use the WotanServer or KulanKendi client and you don't need the EROM file.

Actually i don't have any accounts there so i don't think its possible to do that without having account.

You don't need an account and you don't need to buy credits for repairing the EROM; it's free.
Use the Wotan client. Leave login and password blank.

I also tried XS++ but as soon as the system detects the mobile, i soon hear a standard hardware detaching sound which leaves the process incomplete.

here is the log...

any idea how to tackle this problem??

give the KulanKendi & setool lite method a go.

Yeah i tried KKclient and it updated EROM successfully in 0 seconds :cool:

But The Problem Still Persists.
The Identify command gives " no ack during gdfs_readvar & Can't read SCRC unit" error. here's the log....

and Read GDFS command gives "CSloader refused to start GDFS services error 29" error.
