Hi guys. OK. Here’s the deal. I’m an idiot. In the space of three days I got Tropicana in my Nokia N95 8gb, and then in a (rushed/botched) attempt to unlock my previous Sony Ericsson K800 using XS++ & Setoo2lLiteV1.1, (because I needed a working phone urgently) I’ve screwed it up and missed the part about backing up the GDFS (Yes, I know – see fourth sentence). Now the K800 is COMPLETELY dead and lifeless (as if dead wasn’t bad enough), and now I just keep getting “Error: Cannot open phone communication port” message whenever I try to connect it. Does this mean I have what is affectionately known as a ‘brick’? Do I have to take it to a repair-store, and has anyone any idea how much that might cost (£)? Or is it even worse than that and a store can’t fix it? I’ll be extremely grateful for any help anyone can offer.
