8210 dead - GSM-Forum

Hi, Ive got a 8210 which is very badly damaged.

This is what i think hapened to it:

Dropped in water then this girl thought it was no good

Somehow it then had oil spilt over it

also a number of problems like the keypad and elastomer were a bit dodgy before all this happened

I would just like some help on how to fix this, I have tried cleaning it with meths in a ultasonic cleaner but no luck also when i try to flash it in rolis 4.77 i select 8210 and when it says power on the phone, if i press the power botton it reads it wifin a second as if theres no software on the phone but wont let me write any sofware to the phone

***also when i try to flash new software to it, it says Preloader error, check cables, contacts etc.....

thanks in advance
Matt

Hi
Before using any software, you should clean it, with ultrasonic cleaner or with some chimical cleaner ( for electronic use ), then rehot the bord.
If your phone does'n accept any softaware connection, be sure to test first your cable with an other phone, to be sure that the probleme is from the cable or the soft or the phone or more than one of them.
test this and give me the result
good luck
