Default locked bootloader + blue screen (+some useful info?)

Anyone knows why i cant access the mass storage device where the image is stored... my bootloader got messed up so i get the blue screen and recovery is a no go. i can get into the purple screen mode, 2 HUAWEI technologies devices are detected and no drivers ofc.

I tried with various usb drivers provided here but none was a match.

and ofc adb isnt working (device not found).

Getting my phone back up and running is stuck behind it.

And yes i have been looking through the forums.... for the last 5 hours... getting desperate.

Gonna install ubuntu and try my luck.. tho i already have bad feelings that all i see is .... no drives.


How damn hard can it be to access a storage device over usb :/

getting access to it is just about the only option i have to unbrick the phone i guess?

Ideos X5 u8800



EDIT:
Edited title to match the real current situation.
So ppl dont have to scroll through it all:
QPST Does work with huawei ascend drivers (it has the modem and the com driver)
http://www.mediafire.com/?4528hetcl916d2o

Used for u8800.

It found and connected to the phone when it was on the blue screen (the purple bootloader screen wasnt working ofc).

For backup, restore etc u still need the SPC (000000 if ur imei is null).
Also phone has to be switched into the debug/manufacture mode - which i cant do ofc.

So as for the SPC: CDMA Workshop should do it (assuming phone is in maint/debug mode also - i just got invalid/out of range value errors) - it has the option to look up a SPC, may need some work tho.

So anyone whos more experienced with it .... use it lol. Tho unfortunately for me.. ill be most likely spending my last 3 months of mandatory military service ... without phone (and therefor no internet or gaming etc - pure hell).

would placing the update.app (gingerbread update rom) on a external sd (in the dload folder + if i find a spare sd card -_-),,, like it used to do for the normal upgrade - would it start the flash automatically once i get into the purple screen...


EDIT ah crap -_- reply... no delete button nether.

looks like its a god damn locked bootloader then.... damn u huawei... last time i use anything from them.
Military service starting again in 2 days and i dont have a damn phone to use -_-

Its your choice either put on external or internal works the same
But if your phone is bricked then external is only option I think

im cursed.... i dont have any microsd cards around here and wont be able to get any fast enough... military service starts again in 1 day (vacation will be over)... and i cont have access to pc. Crap.

So it would be enough iv i place the dload with update.app on external and simply use the vol+ and - and power to switch to the purple screen (download mode ?) and it should just find it as if it were on the internal SD?

cant access internal... and unfortunately i dont have a external card right now, i can get one but its by the time i cant use any pc-s so... not much of a use.

The internal SD tho should still have aurora ICS 1.9 zip... tho without recovery its useless.


Well idk if its absolutely any use but... i did manage to get my phone detected in the QPST configurator..... first progress with anything iv had in past 15h


CDMA workshop connected also - damn demo !!! cant try and see how well it "steals/hacks" the SPC


+++ opst still requires diag mode
