Multicolored canary screen after stupid attempt rom update

[Guest dwlewisii]

it appears that I was a total idiot and I attempted to do a rom update from smart for spv 100 when I have a spv x...now I have a multicolored canary screen.

Go ahead and flame me, I deserve it, but if there is any compassionate souls out there that can help me out short of me sending the phone back, I'd appreciate it

Bless,

Dan

No worries !!! This is the bootstrap loading screen But now you have ta be able to do the following:

1/open the battery compartment and take the battery off

2/wait a few seconds and put the battery back into the compartment

3/press simultaneously the power button and the record button alltogether until you get a grey screen saying "press any key"

4/as the message appears, release simultaneously both power and record keys and press at the center of the joystick until a grey screen appears

5/another grey screen with lines numbered up to 8 will appear;

6/use the joystick to go down to line 8 and validate

7/Be patient as it is going to take a while until all apps arez restored from the rom and loaded bacjk into the phone;

Hope this will help you out of your actual problem
