    After updating, you cannot use XS++ to flash or do much to your phone, you'll have to use other apps like JDFlasher, if you want to flash.

    You cant flash it because now is CID53! You can only try to put some display drivers or something!! But better give it to someone who knows what is doing!

    Try to flash it for free with latest KulanKendi client and then finalizate with jdflasher.
    I sugest you to use
    S500_R8BE001_MAIN_GENERIC_LY_RED53 and corespondenting FS file for that!!!
    If you then not fix it go to service center!!!
