Hello,

I wasn't sure where to post the problem i have with my gps therefore i made a new topic.

The device went dead after bringing the service menu up while using the pin 9 method. The reason i used this method was because i made a mistake copying an executable file (that fixes file paths) to the internal memory which resulted to the device keep rebooting. Anyways while the service menu loaded i thought it would be right to erase the contents of the internal memory therefore i chose 8=Format, after that an Erase flash label poped up and the rest of the menu got distorted, the interface froze and i restarted the device by moving the slide to reset and then on again without any pin methods (clean). From now on i cant do much as i cant see anything from the screen, i even used the pin9 and pin12 connection in case there was some write protection error which lead to nothing.

To sum up i don't have usb access, no screen .. nothing.. therefore my options are strictly limited.. is the device dead or is there any way to restore the system ? I still get an orange led while plugging the usb cable.. and a green if the battery is disconnected but nothing else.

Any suggestions would be appreciated..
