After installing a program called qt( it was supposed to boost the phone) my phone keeps restarting. If I put the usb and connect it to pc...it switches on but stays on lock screen and i can't do a thing. I tried to flash it but I've set it to "mass storage" before so it goes in this mode by itself when I put the usb in...and I read that it is supposed to be in sync mode to flash it...but how can I make it in sync mode when I can't even unlock it and go to home screen...pls HELP

well just switch off your phone, enter the commands to flash and then plug your phone it in...mass storage or what wont matter if your phone is off...

I tried it and something starts to happen...but after a few seconds the window closes and nothing happens. The phone display switches off and the LED lamp is blinking and that's it

cd c:\program files\nokia\flasher
flasher -f -F rootfs.bin -R
once a suitable device is not found message comes up plug in your powered off device to the pc...

the window opens and closes as you didn't run cmd.exe as admin first!
Just follow my earlier posts steps and you will run it...

ok rename your file to rootfs.bin then copy the extracted file from the attached .zip to the exact directory where flasher is located then right click this file and run as admin...
