Help with failed rom upgrade

[Guest genecann]

Hi,

I have been trying to app unlock my c600 I re-flashed with the i-mate rom and did the registry tweaks but from then on I was unable to sync with my pc. I then did a hard reset to put the registry back to defaults and downloaded the patched c600 rom (so i could use regedit) however when I tried to reflash it it told me that I needed to get a new NBF so I thought I would just run typhoonNbfTool and rename the version numbr and reflash it worked in as much as that I could flash the phone with the flashed c600 rom but now the phone turns on displays the I-mate logo the screen then goes white and go's into the red green and blue screen I have tried to hard reset it (two soft buttons held in whilst pushing the power button for 1.5seconds)

I am so anoyed at this all I wanted was to sim unlock it!!!!!

Thanks in advance

hey

had same problem a while back.

do the following:

1) download official orange C600 update. see if you can get an older update which you can sim unlock

2) use winrar to extract all the files from the downloaded executable

3) enter your phone into the bootloader screen (the one with the three bands of colour)

4) plug your USB cable into your phone, at the bottom of the screen should change to say 'USB'

5) run the 'upgradeut' program that will be in the folder where you extracted the executable to

6) it *should* update as per normal, dont forget, it WILL hang on certain percentages for what seems like aaaaages! dont take the cable out at all!

7) it should have updated and you'll have your phone back!

DONT RUN AN UPDATE WHICH ISN'T DESIGNED FOR YOUR PHONE!!!!!!!!!

Hi that was a great help many thanks I now have my phone back! Although I have deliberately screwed it up again as I cannont with the orange from update it to the Patched C600 rom (Macado Rom) can anyone offer me assistance romupdateutility informs me that I need to get a newer rom than the patched c600 rom......

FYI

When update utility is running and when I am trying to update to the patched orange rom it informs me that the model is TORNADO this is all

Once again thanks in advance
