Angry ACK! Disaster! Please Help!!!!

Please Login to Remove!

So i was updating my 8310 with the OS above, and after 4 hours, nothing had moved, the program was frozen, i went to see if i could do anything to cancel out of the upgrade, and my entire system crashed

when i rebooted back up, my phone won't turn on, my PC doesn't recognize it as a device and all i get is a blinking red light from it being plugged in through the usb,

ive taken the battery out and tried to reset the phone that way

but nothing so far has worked

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone help me, i need my phone back!

Try running the loader.exe file by itself. Search your computer for the file.

When I try that, the loader program starts up, and then in the second menu where it asks about the communication port, there is just an empty drop-down menu.

I can't type anything into it and I can't click the box that says "detect communication port" either.

From there, I'm unable to move forwards and stuck


The other thing is that now my computer won't recognize the device as even being connected...

Is the laptop all you have? You might want to try another computer if you can.

It's not booting up to ANYTHING. It's just a blank black screen. Nothing turns on, nothing changes.

The only thing is the light blinking twice ever two seconds...

NJ's link seemed to provide the answer, much much appreciated!

It's reloading the software now, let's hope it doesn't crap out again. THANKS!!!!
