:( I was flashing my gsmarti's ROM this morning... I follow all the steps and it is successfully go into the "flashing environment"... Unfortunately, the process stuck at the beginning... and suddenly, it turn off itself... then, I cant switch on my phone anymore... and I dont even get the static Gigabyte screen as well...
Is there any solution to this?

Thank you!:)

Do you know where to find the Rom Upgrade Utility for your phone?

If you go to your carrier's website and log into it, do you by any chance have a downloadable file that will restore your phone to its factory settings?

There's also many different GSmart models .. which one do you have?

I looked up Gsmart phones, and their support site has firmware upgrades listed for some of their phones .... see if you're is listed.

Thank for you reply =)
Actually i am using gsmart i (64)... and i have the latest firmware with me...
Because this device is using POCKET GHOST to restore and backup the system...
as i mentioned earlier... my "flashing" process is stuck at the beginnig... so, in my opinion, i think the pocket ghost has been deleted and i cant do the flashing anymore... is it true?

If it run's Windows Mobile ... you should be able to run the RUU at the bootloader screen....

As far as how do you get into the bootloader on your phone ... I have no idea.... on mine, I soft reset while holding the camera button in and keeping the camera button held in until the bootloader screen comes up which looks something like this (note i just randomly found this pic on google images)

Hi... thank you ya...

but i am still stuck in the black screen...

and i cant find any way to access into the bootloader...

i am searching the other sites... and i came across this:

they said if anything goes wrong during "flashing", the ROM will be locked...

is that true?

and one more thing, the bootloader, is it almost same as the bios (cmos) of

our pc?

and for your information... a lot of people are having the same problem...

thx thx... appreciate!! =)

Is this the bootloader?

Yep, that is our bootloader for the Gsmart series. On the i300 its accessed by pressing the red phone, green phone and power buttons at the same time.

If you want to change your ROM then you need to load the new version to your SD card (and I think it needs to be the only contents on the card).
