Help! Fooling around and my phone won't boot up

[outlawz]

I was toying around with my old K750i and upgraded the firmware to the W800i.

That worked successfully.

***Here is when I got really foolish :confused: ***
I later tried to install the for the radio without handsfree patch and a quad band gdfs script.

The phone would boot and give me a message " Insert correct sim card"

I tried to restore the backup gdfs copy only to get an error. When I checked the backup file it was blank.

I then tried to flash the phone again with the W800 firmware and still nothing.

I powers on but then it says "Please Wait" and the progress bar freezes almost half way.

Would love some help right about now to solve this issue.

The files I used are:

GFlash 2.0 beta 6
W800_R1AA008_FS_AMERICA_2_RED36.fbn
W800_R1AA008_MAIN_EU_1_CA_RED36.mbn
w800_R1AA008_radio_without_headsets.vkp

I think your erom only needs repairing.

REPAIRING EROM GUIDES for most sonyericsson phones

Nice day

[TheRascal]

The phone would boot and give me a message " Insert correct sim card"

Why u didn't unlock it man :) ??? If u unlocked the phone there was no need to reflash it again. Now u have serious problem. Try with EROM repair.
