NicoByNico and Athos
I have waited about 24 hours as I was hoping tkitts will reply.
Like a real trooper he is.....I am sure he is researching the best method to help.
I do not have the device but I have read the other forum post.
It appears you don't need to unlock boot you may be able to use fastboot to flash a recovery image that has been designed for this device.
What I don't know is whether -----adb reboot bootloader----gets OP to a menu or directly into fastboot.
once OP is in fastboot he would issue the command from where he has placed the recovery image on his PC
There is a risk of soft brick so at this stage....I won't provide a download link.
Instead, Athos if you can take OP through the steps to have adb and fastboot working on his PC, that will be appreciated.
If its too difficult, I can take him into Linux corner and show him how to do it on a live Linux cd.
step by step is the key to OP.
let me know your thoughts.
bye
###########
minimum confidence OP knows how to use adb is him showing a positive result to the following commands
If OP struggles.....he can always remove battery if this is a removable battery device
or
remove data cable between device and PC
AND
long press the power button .........to force a normal boot up
