Still havent found a solution for my dead W580i

XS++ - As soon as I connect with 2+5, I hear the connect sound, but immediately after I hear the disconnect sound? Log:

Wotan - People claim you can fix the EROM for free with Wotan if your phone is a db2020 phone, but I think the W580i is a db2020 (based on what SEToos says), but I cant connect bc of invaild login. Oh yeah, older clients do not work, just to throw that in if you want me to d/l an older version.

I dont think I can go into more detail than this.
Is it going to be possible to fix this phone? Or should I just buy Wotan credits and get it fixed? But I have heard people claim they never got their data or Wotan didnt fix it....soooo Im skeptical. PLZ HELP!!!!

Try D-Client or Total Multi Server. If you can't do anything take your phone to service centre.

[yooman]

Try to repair your EROM with KulanKendi Client, if Wotan didn't work.

[ts014]

try the KulanKendi Client guide here
REPAIRING EROM GUIDES for most sonyericsson phones - Top Sony Forums ,

if that doesn't work, you should get a service/cruiser cable or send the phone to se to fix.

I had the very same problem. NO software but KulanKendi did update my EROM... But unfortunately it didn't solve my problem :( .. so i suggest u to let ur service centre to handle it ;)

[JudgeMAN]

I would totally send it in to ATT for exchange, but they said if they found third party d/l they would charge me full price for my phone, which is like 250 bucks! I didnt d.l 3rd party stuff cuz I made it on my own, but I bet they will assume since it wasnt created by ATT that it is 3rd party.

Edit: I also tried to flash the phone with SETools with an erom file I d/l under main firmware I think...Is that bad? Will I have to reflash the main and fs to my phone? I appreciate all the inputs bc of what I said above ^ . But yall said I could send it in to SE? Would they charge me like ATT would for having non ATT files?

Edit 2: KKClient Log:

Press "5" and "2" keys, hold them together and plug DCU60 USB cable.
Phone Connected...
Detected: DB2020: A1 Series
Flash ID: 0x897E - Supported

EROM Update Ok!
All Done! - Time:00:00:00

But still wont turn on, so Im guessing its not a corrupted EROM...Any ideas?

[JudgeMAN]

What in the world can cause my phone to do this? Can transferring files I made really make my phone die or defective like ATT claims? Or are they just trying to get money outta me..I think its option 2. Any input would be great

[marn]

The best way use setool full ver so take your phone to service center.

.................I also tried to flash the phone with SETools with an erom file I d/l under main firmware I think...Is that bad? .................................

i think that may be the problem, after the EROM update did you flash MAIN and FS again before trying to start your phone?? if not try that...........

[JudgeMAN]

No I didnt, Ill give that a try. Any clue which main and fs files I need to flash to it, or will it not matter.
