EDIT: Before you read on... The issue has been solved. If you screwed up flashing this thread might contain some information on what to do..

I really thought I read up quite well before attempting to flash my vario III.
Since this is my first attempt at hardspl-ing / flashing I was quite nervous to do stuff wrong..

so you might guess.. it went kind of wrong.

I started of, following instructions on screen. Untill I got the tri colored screen. There it went wrong since I pulled out the usb cable too soon. (I don't think It was copying files yet)

the screen reads:
KAIS130
SPL-1.93.Jump
CPLD-8
..
USB

Now at the moment my phone is still on tri colored screen.. (with usb noted at the bottom).. but it's no longer recognised by activesync... and also the kaiserunlock tool is saying it couldnt connect anymore.. (I see the three step buttons, step 1 and 3 are blanked.. step 2 is clickable...)

thus.. i fucked up. I'm uncertain what to do now. I read about the 16% copy error and that MTTY could be used with the boot command.
Should I reset the device before I use MTTY? Since I tried MTTY while the phone is in tricolorscreen and this is it's feedback:

Cmd>boot
Command error !!!

Help me please..

Is it safe to (soft or hard)reset the device?

@ belchie:

Sry.. I have looked through your links, cant see how those threads would help me? As far as I understand I don't have hard-spl and thus rom flashing is no go..right ?

Is it safe to (soft or hard)reset the device (since it's now running in battery only mode)?

Since the battery didn't charge in tricolor mode I decided to give it a softreset...

black screen.. no reaction to softreset....

my head became red.. I thought I really bricked it..

hard reset... no reaction...

oh oh..

powerbutton...

Tmobile bootlogo...PFJEW!

think it was just (s)spl loaded.. and no file copying had been started.. Gonna give it another go tomorrow :D

This thread can be closed. Thanks.
