If the firmware is corrupt the phone will not turn on, I suspect you have messed up the firmware.

If you are 100% sure that its a 5.10 then there is no real problem, you can flash a repair file and repair the phone.

The flash loader for your phone will be either Normal (Intel f160) of Atmel 16, and your boot loader should be the 868.

Use Dark Flasher shell, and be sure that your parallel port is configured correct.

If you are not sure about your parallel port you can download a free sample of my ebook from my website at <a href="http://www.theguruguide.co.uk" target="_blank">www.theguruguide.co.uk</a> and there is a good section in there about parallel port setup.

It is always a good idea to hold the 3210 connector in place when you are flashing the phone, you may find it easier to use a rubber band for a full flash!

Be sure to remove and replace battery for a few seconds before every attempt.

If you do not have a repair file, let me know and I will send you one.
