Firmware update fail

Postby mikeh » Mon Feb 09, 2009 5:35 pm

Not sure of what use this will be to anyone here, but here goes.

Connected phone to pc in Sync mode to update from latest PC Studio version.

Took an a g e to download the update, then off it went with the phone.

About 20% in (Total progress) I got a disk warning on C: (Sytem drive) then the update fell over :( :o

Red screen on phone etc.

Tried to do recovery, but following instructions on the screen (keys 4+7 didn't work!) phone would not switch on.

I tried switching it on again & repeating the update - always got to 20% Total progress and stalled.

Had a read on this forum around this topic, but could find no previous on this.
Then I noticed that another poster did other key combos but included the power key... I tried this with the 4+7+Pwr. Jackpot.

Ran update again, and all went OK.

I suspect that the disk full was responsible for the original failure.

I hope this helps others, check your free disk space.

Cheers,
Mike.
