Bricked phone, having trouble re-flashing "e - unknown file - zImage"

---

Yesterday I flashed my phone with Kyorarom, as it didn't boot (stuck on loading screen) I kept flashing with various firmwares, one crashed Odin and now I can't successfully flash.

I get a message: e - unknown file - 'zImage'

Might be useful if I could even boot into clockwork, but the key combination doesn't work on this phone the same as other, goes into download/upload mode instead.

So now whichever rom I try, it fails then boots with a G3 mod loading screen and gets nowhere. I haven't found any information as to what causes the above message.

Really want my phone usable again and I've run out of ideas what to do. If anyone can help me get this working, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I think hillbeast has posted zerofill for g3 to wipe everything from tthe phone. Maybe you can pm him if you can't find it AFTER searching

EDIT: I think in one of his threads.

Oo, would it be possible to apply this even though I'm unable to flash? Not sure how to use zerofill, but I'll look into it thanks. Perhaps it was something to do with trying to apply a .img at some point for dual booting?

[Edit]
Couldn't find a thread by that user for zerofill.

Its in one of his threads. Flash it thru Odin one package. I can't post the link for it as I'm on my phone. Search in g3mod thread or kyorarom thread if I rmb correctly...

I tried the search on this form and Google, perhaps I'm searching the wrong thing "zero fill", "zerofill". Been unable to find any posts, especially threads devoted to this subject.

here's the one from hillbeast. good luck.

<1> e - unknown file - "cache.rfs"

Before I had issues, had unmounted all the filesystems in Clockwork to format them, do you know if these are saved?

I haven't been able to find the key combo to get into clockwork for this particular phone.

Things aren't looking good for me. :'(

cwm-vol up+vol down+ home key+ power button

Thankyou that helped.

In the end I just decided the Odin bundled with one of the more popular firmwares was not working properly, then downloaded v4.38 and flashing now works. O.o

Thanks all for your time, if anyone ever has this issue the Google "Odin Multi Downloader v4.38.exe - 4shared.com". (Unsure if posting links to downloads is frowned upon)
