low battery and flash problems? - GSM-Forum

Hello

I just got a flash cable to unlock my Nokia 3210 (5.36) and I'd be grateful for some help...

I used a program called Jethro first, everything was apparently ok, detected a 16Mb Atmel chip and flashed it, but when it said it was finished the phone wouldn't turn on.

I read some guides and got to work with Dejan flasher. Basically:

-I can't read properly - I've tried with all the f_loader.bin files I have, including the one for Atmel 16Mb, and all I ever get is 00 FF 00 FF...

-I've tried to write a 5.36 partial flash. Only the Atmel 16Mb f_loader.bin gets me past the 'erasing flash' stage, it says 'Done'. When it starts to write, though, I get "Flash Status error".

Thanks if you're still with me. What does this flash status error mean? One thing I suspect is a low battery - it was almost empty when I started (giving 'low battery' warning).

And in its current state will the battery charge as normal if I plug in the charger? At the moment the phone still responds to Dejan, but with the charger plugged in it doesn't, and this was making me slightly nervous...

Thanks a lot

Use another phone's battery which is full of charge. After this use dejan's prog with approriet atmel's f_loader.bin and an approriate (you have to try it) boot. bin (thetre are 4 type or more??)!

Good luck!
