I Cannot believe i'm even writing this, based on my knowledge, experience, and the fact that i have helped so many others with phone problems...anyway here it goes...as i stated in other threads, for 48 hours ive been without signal...I was told it was due to tower upgrades, blah blah, Last night i called again, was told that there was an error on their end that they corrected but in my low signal area the activation process can take a very long time to fully finish on my end...anyway i was up till 5 a.m. still couldn't make calls...so...I decided to open up DFS ( the tool i use to flash PRL's, and change my MSL ), and I had this strange feeling that i was dealing with a NAM issue...now I stupidly did not backup all the stock settings, but what i DID do was...under the NAM tab, after connnecting and unlocking phone...there was a box for NAM = 0. I found that odd, figured what the heck, and changed the 0 to a 1, b/c technically it is NAM1 the phone should be using, anyway, after that, the phone would not boot past android logo...wont even connect to pc while stuck in bootloader...tried hard reset tried all combinations of vol+- everything ( it was stock at the time so should have been able to get to stock recovery but nope, nothing) Only progress I've made so far is I can get the phone into "Downloading" mode, done by VOL+ and VOL- And PWR all together (red led lights up), this DOES allow the pc to read it as diagnostic port, which therefore connects to DFS again, but in downloading mode, all the settings are gone, and I do a thing. I'm at a complete loss here...Id really appreciate any input...I think it may just be a lost cause...(which i did tell Appollo i never believed in before rofl, but now i do)...Any input, i'd appreciate...So frustrating i JUST got it back from ZTE...tower issues/can't make calls..so i played around, and boom its bricked...(Since I do have a decent amt of knowledge i've tried alot of things, and the only way i've gotten the PC to read the phone at all was in DOWNLOADING MODE , which nobody has ever discussed on this forum, does anyone know a way to flash recovery or reset while in downloading mode? Otherwise, I really have no clue what to do...I'd greatly appreciate any input...Thanks.
