Guest afroahmed Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 (edited) I was just about to package up my phone to be sent to someone who bought it from me. I thought it would be a good idea to master reset it before i send it, in case it still contained my details. After doing so... my phone is broken! It does the startup sequence in a loop but never gets to normal state! EG Hello moto screen > orange screen > Smartphone 2002 screen > organge screen > hello moto screen> etc etc it keeps alternating between them, then after about 10 mins just dies. I have to take the battery out to try again. I cant even factory reset it anymore... it doesnt work! What can i do? PLEASE HELP ME. p.s i hjave never flashed this fone with illegal roms etc. A point to note : after the second time when the orange screen is appearing... if i close the phone and look at the external lcd it displays a battery meter, and INSERT SIM. UPDATE - after a while it now says - AIRPLANE MODE ON blah blah please turn off and all i can click is DONE, this brings me back to the hello moto screen grrrr!!!!

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Have you tried starting the phone with a valid SIM? What happens when you try to hard reset? also make sure the phone was not plugged into the pc etc when doing the hard reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Remove the battery for a few minutes then do a hard reset. See what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XiSt3nCe Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Well, if all else fails you could always flash your phone with another rom, although messing with illegal roms is risky :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XiSt3nCe Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I can't agree it's more stable. My best experiences have been with the WM5 Rom. But no MPx200 will operate the same. Neither will any computer with the exact same hardware, flashing your phone is risky, but rewarding. I guess depending on what you use the phone for.
