Big problem

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 06:30 AM

Updating the bb 06.15 to unlock with ultrasn0w then completely forgot I could not update with ofw so then retried with cfw, after hours of messing it worked, but now Im just getting more problems the more i try fix it, the phone is stuck in a dfu/recovery loop and every time I try to install cfw I get a white and yellow screen and no more progress after that, tried everything I can think of... any help?

Sounds like you may have corrupted your NOR. Let the battery completely drain (or take it out for a hour or so) then try restoring again.

how would i remove battery?

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 06:45 AM

Just google for a how to on that. Dont do it unless you are comfortable doing it though. You can just let the battery drain if you want but that could take a few days.

yeah i know lol, how will i know when its dead?

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 06:50 AM

Try to turn it on and you get nothing, not even the little red charge battery logo.

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 06:51 AM

I dont get that anyway :S thats how bad it is...

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 07:06 AM

Does it say you are in recovery when you plug it in?

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 07:13 AM

yes

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 07:17 AM

Ok, you will know you are fully drained when you plug it in and dont get that message.

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 08:01 AM

is there no other way?

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 08:09 AM

Thats the only ways I know of.

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 08:15 AM

or a quicker way to drain the battery lol?

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 08:16 AM

Not if you are stuck in dfu.

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 10:27 AM

wish i didnt unlock it now :/ will it be fixable definitely?

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 10:48 AM

Ya it should be

**Peter Griffin** · 01-11-2011, 10:51 AM

Alright, thanks for the help, I feel lost without my phone working lol.

**Simon** · 01-11-2011, 10:56 AM

no prob

**Peter Griffin** · 01-12-2011, 03:42 AM

Couldnt wait... got it open and the battery out, just hope did it all right and it still works lol..

Ok after all that it seemed to work fine, rebooted ok jailbreaking and everything seemed ok but after like five mins I got the problem back with the white and yellow screen although my PC recognised it in iTunes and now its syncing to my PC but my screen seems to be like mixed up, where the screen seems pushed over the the right and is coming round, its hard to explain...

**Simon** · 01-12-2011, 06:06 AM

Maybe post a screenshot.
How long did you leave the battery out?
