iNew V3 sudden death. Help needed

[kokuo]

in my opinion that sounds like a fried board.
just as a side question - has this phone been used with the modified THL battery?

Nope, it had the standard iNew battery...

I'll try to flash the CWM or system.img as stevenma61 suggested once at home. If I won't get any appreciable result, I'll send the phone back to the shop

Thank you guys

Cheers

Did you try to leave the battery off the phone for an hour or so?

Yes, I left it for 3 hours without battery and with cable unplugged without luck.

I'm starting to think that it may really be a fried board, as linr76 said...

i am still believing that it is a software issue.

have u done manually format in yr SP flash tool.
after manually format, then reflash the rom again

Hi,
what do you mean by "manually format"?
I've tried the format option on every SP Flash tool version without luck.

Check the log file created by spft, it will gjve more detailed info about the error. It creates some 5 log files, i dun think all spft versions do it tho.
Anyway, the penultimate one i think is the log of the flashing attempt, just saying from top of my mind, i'm not at the pc.

I saw the manual format in SP Flash Tool.
I should enter values in the start and end points. What should I put there?


Thank you

After u choose scatter file, then uncheck/untick all the items(preloader, .......) then go to format file, the number should be fill automatically

[kokuo]

So, the error I get is 8043

[Storage Error] The load and target are inconsistent!

[HINT]:
The load to be downloaded is for EMMC.
The target storage is .
Please select a correct load according to the target.


I think that the board got fried....

try one more time

this time try to format the emmc with automatic
DO NOT unckecked/untick all the item. let it run if it goes tru, the run will take a bit longer.

after that, flash the same rom to the phone again
