I have Qtek s200 IPL/SPL = 2.09.0001/2.15.0001.

The phone does not boot into windows because it crashed from previous flash. Now it only goes to bootloader (tri colour)

the problem i'm having right now is that during the upgrade flashing process (with dopod's no vendor id), the phone would shut off at random places, the screen just fades out (instead of suddenly turning off). Sometimes, this fade out happens at the tri colour bootloader stage right after i plug the usb cable in. other times it fades out when the flashing process is around 40%, or 10%, it's all random.

can someone explain to me why is it like this? and how do i fix this? The phone did work before.

thanks

i don't think the battery is the issue, i bought two new batteries and charged them with external charger (that charges the battery without the phone). both batteries gave the same result with the phone. anyone else seen the issue? is the board busted? i am in toronto canada. we don't have such models here, so what's the best way to replace the board (if it is indeed the board's fault)?
