K500 water damaged, not power on! - GSM-Forum

flusher · 08-14-2005, 12:56

Hi ppl.
I have K500 that was water damaged.
Water trails was on cpu, flash, near lcd etc...
So i cleaned all this, reflow all with flux.
Phone still cant power on. But...
if i plug the charger in without battery - red diode near power button blinking repeating fastly.
Normal K500 will just blink one time!
With battery inside, phone has no diode reaction

Tried to flash it:
Seflasher - Phone Detected, but it doesnt show me FID and phone detected model! Then it uploading bootfile and stops.

SEMCtool shows only Error 404

Phone reacting on flahser and power on button, maybe only partly.
So... anybody has some ideas?
