Guest Alex-S Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) Help me MoDaCo, you're my only hope... I've had my Monte Carlo for a few months, and never rooted/unlocked/etc it out of fear of accidentally bricking it. Yesterday, it stopped booting past the Orange/fireworks start-up screen. I can get to the FTM screen, but nothing happens. I've been trying the ZTE update tool, which doesn't get past the 'Scanning port' step. And I don't seem to be able to access the SD card via USB. I've been reading a lot of the rooting threads and FAQs on here, but I'm not sure if I can achieve anything without a USB connection... am I screwed?

Guest razzmataz1478 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 You don't need the SD card. Use the search function and you'll find loads of threads like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alex-S Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Been searching around and I'm probably being thick, but couldn't find anything that exactly matched. But as I say, probably being thick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Alex-S Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Sorry, could someone point me in the direction of a thread for this problem? All the solutions I've managed to find so far involve seem to involve accessing the mini-SD card via USB, which I cannot do, as computer doesn't recognise device.

All the solutions I've managed to find so far involve seem to involve accessing the mini-SD card via USB, which I cannot do, as computer doesn't recognise device. Search fast boot in Google and click on the cyanogen mod wiki. Download the fast boot drivers (they're somewhere around here, windows 7 should find them automatically). Download clockwork mod recovery. When you got fastboot drivers sorted, with the phone plugged in to a computer on the green man, type: fastboot devices [/ code] If it comes up with something remotely like saying 'phone' or 'skate': [code]fastboot flash recovery nameofclockworkmod.img fastboot reboot And hold down the volume- button after the last command. You should get into recovery. Now you can 1. Mount SD card 2. Factory reset your phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
