Hi, just now, I recently programmed my subsidy unlocked v9x with the new firmware posted here, i used flash&backup 3.07 registered version and verified the v9x profile, etc. anyway, after i clicked on "quick flash" it started programming my phone, similiar to when i flashed it with a phone backup once. Anyway, it's been over 10 minutes that the operation finished and the phone seems to be permanently in bootler form. it says: bootloader 07.70 SW Version R2633121ER_U_9E.03.39R then a few spaces under that it says: Battery OK OK to Program Transfer Mode: USB if I unplugged it, it would say to reconnect usb what do I do?! Thank you for any help.

So you have just flashed your phone with R2633121ER_U_9E.03.39R ?
What was the firmware on your phone before the flash?
Do you have a backup?

Flash your backup to your phone.
What did you try to flash to your phone?Hi folks, thank you both for helping me out, ok, I am using the R2633121ER_U_9E.03.3AR firmware recently posted here, after i flashed that, i am getting this error, i previously had R2633121ER_U_9E.03.39R which is the original firmware, i am now flashing that backup back to the phone. I hope that works

Glad that worked out for you.
Not sure why the updated flash did not workout for you,obviously the FB3 program is working as you were able to flash your backup.
Although im not sure what you meant in the first post when you said"after i clicked on "quick flash" it started programming my phone"
In FB3 you should be in the write data tab for flashing this and not the firmwares tab.

In FB3 you should be in the write data tab for flashing this and not the firmwares tab.ok, update, yes, I previous didn't use the write tab, and now I just used the write tab/flash file, then write but it gives me the same problem, then I have to use my old phone backup again, the backup works fine, it is a ".sbf" file R2633121ER_U_9E.03.39R.sbf
so not sure at all what I'm doing wrong, i really wanted to update my phone with the new firmware. Thank you for all your help in this, I greatly appreciate it and thanks again for any more info:)

Very strange as both firmware are at&t branded and for the Bootloader 07.70 and 07.80
Im wondering for you to flash the new firmware you may need to upgrade the bootloader to 07.80 (dont quote me on this as im not sure)
What i would do is try downloading the firmware directly from the link here by Skrilax_CZ its always possible that the file became corrupt somehow when we uploaded to the server.
Give that a shot and let me know how it works out.

No problem.
Another thing to try is flashing the new firmware with rsd lite.
Give it a shot and let us know.

Glad to hear it worked out.
Not always the case to have to use RSD lite but sometimes it makes the difference.

Glad it is all working. I never use Flash Back for flashing. I only use RSD Lite. Some members will only use FB3.
