SEUS Just killed my W960 - HELP!!!

[kri5py]

Hello,

Today I used the SEUS to update the firmware on my W960i.

The update went all the way through the installation process only to give me the message "installation failed - please retry".

When I connect the phone back to SEUS i get the message 'phone not recognised' and I cannot switch the phone on. When powering the phone on all that I get is the white keyboard light and nothing else.

So....any ideas on how to fix this without returning the phone to SE? Is there a way to put the firmware on to the phone without using the SEUS and if so, what do i use and where do I get the software/firmware?!

I have begun reading about xs++ as a possible route to reloading the firmware and getting it up and running again but am quickly getting lost!

Here's the log when I connect the phone to xs++

Hello,

I had - and I still have - the same problem.
see C902 update-problems with SEUS - hangs at 98% - Top Sony Forums
Don't know if the W960 ist compatible to the a2uploader but if a FW is available try to flash your phone with a2uploader.
>> But note that you will lose your guarantee
