SD FAT Update Failed

[BetaChris]

I tried flashing my 3125 to the latest official ROM via the nbh from RUU_STAR100_4.1.502.5_02.79.30_CWS_SHIP.exe in bootloader mode.

It gets as far as the "Update SD image?" screen, I press the button to start the update process, and I receive an "SD FAT Update failed !!!" error.

What am I doing wrong? Have I bricked my phone?

Any help would be MUCH appreciated...

Sounds like your SD card is not formatted with FAT32. Verify that it is, or just reformat it and make sure the file is correctly named, resides in the root directory and is the only thing on the card. Reply back on what you find.

I reformatted the card to Fat32, downloaded the RUU again, and extracted the nbh file it to the root directory of my microsd card, as STARIMG.nbh, and still got the same SD FAT update failed error.

(I did not use a volume label, and double checked that my card was in fact formatted in Fat32, which it was)

Is your microSD card from Sandisk? My girlfriend was experienced the same problem (well, I was messing with her cellphone, don't tell her LOL), untill I tried my Kingston card. No idea what is the difference, both cards were with NO errors at all...
Try using few different microSD cards. And format them with the Panasonic SDFormatter only.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm almost certain it's a problem with my phone, and not the microsd card.

I tried using the same card to flash a different 3125, and was able to do so without incident - so, I've pretty much concluded that my other phone is shot.

(Oh, and for the record, it's not a sandisk card, it's an AData one)
