question about reviving blackberry - GSM-Forum

FZA · 03-13-2012, 08:50

I want to find out what files must i use

The mfi and sfi files must it be the prd code files or can i use any files.
where can i download these mfi and sfi files.
After that must i flash it with its prd code firmware (flash file).

If which file fails will it be a hardware problem

thanx

Hello bro

If you dont have the SFI file or you dont know what is SFI file, you can install any BB firmware for your model and after install go to \Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\YOUR_BB_MODEL_VERSION , and find in this folder the *.sfi file,select it, and wait until program finish.

About MFI we not have yet, but if you need you can down mfi loader from here or other place here in gsmhosting.

I tried 5 blackberry with red light but with no success

Here is what i did

-wipe full device 'done' operation finished

-write mfi file "no application linked (factory os)"

-write sfi file Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\YOUR_BB_MODEL_VERSION

-flash with blackberry desktop manager

But still blinking red light

what am i doing wrong

I bought zzkey for repairing only blackberry because it said that it can revive dead blackberry and red light.

I was using blackberry desktop manager before to flash firmware.

My point is that if blackberry desktop manager cant revive the phone then zzkey wont

red light cause mostly hardware
but i think bootrom damaged time bb also show this problem
u can try to load firmware without battery then check it
if still same cause problem go to hardware

FZA · 03-17-2012, 08:39

my point is why must we use zzkey if we have blackberry desktop manager to load firmware

**zz_coder** · 03-17-2012, 17:05

WIth BB DManager you can't:
-WIpeFUll your device to solve possible boot problem or revive dead soft BB.
-NUKE DEVICE
-FLASH ONLY SFI
-FLASH ONLY APP
-PUT IN FACTORY OS.
-ERASE DEVICED ON ALLOWED REGIONS:
-READ FULL PHONE INFO.
-Calculate 5 codelevels for all new 2012MEPS
-....
anyway if you think that with BB DM is enough for you not use zzkey.
