Flashing with GrandPrix - beware your battery levels!

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

So I was flashing the Russian HH5 today, and 40% into the phone flash, it failed and the phone switched off! Oops!

Turns out that even though it was plugged in, the battery ran out. I THINK that there are no ill effects (I've managed to re-flash), but I imagine that if that happened at just the wrong point, it could be disastrous.

Lesson: Make sure you have plenty of battery before you start flashing games! :D

yes, be careful when you plug in the phone via USB cable.

the battery will be actually discharging, not charging, even though you see a charging icon on the screen!

why samsung won't learn something from HTC :D

Not entirely true, I understand that if you are booted and in Mass Storage mode, it charges quite well!
