Press the "Red Key" and the "Menu Key" together, while your battery is out, then push your battery back in while holding the buttons still. It will go to the System Recovery, Make sure you have your USB out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Korhan70 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) As you remove the battery your phone will turn off. Press the "Red Key" and the "Menu Key" together, while your battery is out, then push your battery back in while holding the buttons still. It will go to the System Recovery, Make sure you have your USB out. I did exactly what you have said, but still it doesn't open the System recovery. It goes on with ''opening'' the phone. When i push the battery back, the pulse doesn't start Is there another way to do it? Edited October 18, 2010 by Korhan70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TGWS Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Installing the Official 2.1 Update Please note that this portion of the Guide is only for those using a T-Mobile Pulse (U8220). This will NOT work for those using a U8320 or a U8220-6. Please check the label located under the battery to determine your version Difficulty Level 1/5 (very easy) Known Bugs The phone is prone to freezes when using apps that use both Data and CPU in bursts. Fixed Such as: Facebook, Market, Browser Text messages aren't sending / receiving properly Not Fixed The phone may have a ringing delay when receiving an incoming call What you will need: A Pulse A Micro SD Card (Recommended to have at least 1gb free space) A Micro USB Cable or An Micro SD Card Reader A Word of Caution Please note that installing this update will wipe everything off your phone. (Contacts, messages, apps etc.) Please ensure that you back them up if required. Your SD card will not be wiped before, during or after the update process. Also please refer to the previous warning: The Available internal phone memory will be reduced to 50mb (Down from 80+mb) You will be able to install less apps The Guide Step 1: Prepare your phone, backup anything you need to the SD card or computer. Note that everything will be wiped off your phones internal memory. Step 2: Download the Official 2.1 update file from here: 2.1 Update.zip Step 3: Extract the contents of the ZIP file to any location on your computer. Place the entire "dload" folder onto the Root of your SD card By "Root" I mean do not place the file in any subfolders Step 4: Power off your Device. When the phone has fully powered off press and hold the following buttons: POWER + RED (End Call) + VOLUME UP You may release these buttons when the message "Preparing Update" appears on your screen Step 5: Confirm that you wish to update and allow the device to run it's course. The phone may get stuck on "Restarting" if so wait a few minutes then remove and re-insert the battery If your phone "Fails to Update" Please refer to the FAQ [here] Step 6: Allow your phone 5+ minutes to boot up for the first time. You may experience some lag / force closes and some other errors. This is normal at this stage.
