I just got my Mini S and it is a BRICK! All it does is go straight to bootloader upon booting... So i can't use the updater that's available.
Even if i do a hard reset, it goes straight back to bootloader. Somebody help, please!

I received it as such, but would prefer to fix it myself- its just different than other smartphones in that you can't load a rom image on it when it is in bootloader.
anyone have suggestions?

somehow get a Rom on to a Mini SD card and restore it thou the boot loader
if you know someone with a Vario then could put a mini SD card in it and back up the rom

Hello timothyadam,
yesterday my "mini s" was also dead (no booting os!), but:
when you are in the screen with the three colors (press Voice and camera Button and then reset) and you have connect the mini s via usb cable (in the left down corner you must see USB) then you can click the exe (imate or qtek prodigy file) and this work.
Regards

I've tried that, but since the K-Jam rom update only works when the device isn't in bootloader, i can't get it to recognize the device...
