Phone bricked!! Need help ASAP (firmware flashing)

[northleaf]

I'll try to explain this as easily as possible... get ready..

Ok. My k750i won't even power on after a failed reflash attempt. While updating using SEUS,the connection from phone to USB was lost. That's when the phone was first 'bricked'.

Then I used Far Manager and flashed:
K750_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1_CL_RED36
along with:
K750_R1CA021_FS_EUROPE_2_RED36.
The phone then would turn on but would pause at the "network configuration" error. I then read that I needed to 'finalize' the phone using Far Manager but didn't know how to do that.

So then.. (since I couldn't figure out how to finalize phone w/ FAR), I figured I'd try a new firmware flash using GFlash.

In this program, I went to the repair tab and inserted: K750_EROM_CID36_RED.mbn. Upon holding 'c' and inserting usb, GFlash detected the phone and gave me some basic info (IMEI number, CID36, etc.) but woudln't flash the erom. I disconnected, removed and re-installed the battery and NOTHING! Now the phone won't even be recognized by the pc using usb nor will it power on.

To sum it up, my phone is bricked and I need to do a fresh firmware update. Any help is aprreciated. Thnx. (i'm gonna copy /paste this to a couple other site as well to gather as much info as possible)

charge your battery once more. keep it plugged in until you are sure that the phone is fully charged. then try once more.
and about far manager, while flashing the fs(K750_R1CA021_FS_EUROPE_2_RED36), you should unbrand the phone, ie, you should copy the respective custom pack into your phone's fs. (tpa/preset/custom). i presume you did not copy the custom pack. that is the reason for the "configuration error". all the best

Well the phone won't even respond to the wall charger at this point. But the battery was full charged before this crash. Also, the phone is already unlocked unbranded SE, so perhaps I used the wrong firmware file. And no I didn't use the custom pack. Where do I get it, How do I know which one I need, and How do I install it using FAR? Thanx.

Friend of mine had the same problem. I just used DaVincie Client v13.7 to flash the phone and FAR to finalize it. Worked just fine after that.

If you need the Finalize package, just pm me and i'll send it to you.

how much is Davinci? Is there a free alternative?

Use gflash - it is free.

the fear of bricking my phone is what keeps me from flashing it with anything. i bought it unlocked though but i'm still scared to try to load other flash lite themes on it.

Backup your GDFS with SE Tool lite 2 before doing anything. That'll keep you safer in case you should really brick it.
