vx6700 stuck in bootload

[mikeinjersey]

Hello, I've read a lot of threads here but im still not sure what I need to do. I know nothing about these phone hacks. All I wanted to do was update my phone to the latest official version from Verizon -

http://support.vzw.com/how_to_use/xv...re_update.html

AKU 3.3 or whatever. I did exactly like it said and my phone went into black screen mode halfway through the update....with Serial or USB displayed. (usb, when connected to computer)

I tried the soft and hard resets with no luck.

"USB" and "V 2.02" is all I currently see on the black screen.

Please help... I know nothing about this BuildOS or what to do with it ? Do I need this to get me back on track ? As you can tell im a super noob. If I do need to download BuildOS, please direct me to the download link.

I appreciate it much,

MB

Plug it into the desktop and try to rerun the update.

I tried that like 20 times. USB cable direct from the phone to computer.

That software wizard just doesnt recognize it.

My computer (vista) does though. The hardware device recognizes it as "Microsoft USB Sync". Although the 'Sync Center' doesnt recognize it all. probably because its still in boot mode screen.

I tried running it as Administrator as well...no luck.

P.S.
I found this thread too, http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=389568
Good luck.
I am sure you'll get it with the help of the folks here.

Im pretty sure my USB connection is fine. Since the hardware manager recognizes it and it switches to USB mode when connected to the computer.

can someone help me out of bootmode ? Do I need to download BuildOS ?

Forget mtty and trash. Use Vista and uncheck USB Connections in Windows mobile Device Center. Make sure you're uising the right REV version. Hard reset your phone a few times before (It will keep going back into bootloader mode) then flash.

I unchecked that. Should I uncheck anything else on the list ?

And while connected in usb mode, I should continue to try Hard Reset ?

Regarding the REV version of windows mobile device center, i've had auto updates on all the time..so im pretty sure I have the latest version. It doesnt allow me to check for updates anywhere... im not even sure where to look to find out the current version I have. I dont see any "about" anywhere to click on.

appreciate the help, will try anything practically to get this to work.

If you unchecked allow usb you should bee fine, try to flash with VISTA now...
