HOW TO FLASH NOKIA MOBILE

How to Flash your Nokia device via Phoenix USB Dead Flashing
(Phoenix flashing tutorial)

1)Flashing your phone is not an easy thing for an average mobile user. But if you can follow steps carefully then
its gonna be a breeze. I was also hesitant before to flash my Nokia N8 via Phoenix but now flashing my device
has never been so difficult. Flashing refers to updating your device firmware(or internal Operating system) or
to unlock and debrand. Nokia phoenix is service software by which you can restore and flash a firmware. This
is not intended for consumers though. Disclaimer: Nokia Revolution is not liable for any damage will cause
to your device. So read instructions carefully. If you have doubts, you can put a comment here or join our

2)FOR A BUG FREE FLASHING While your device is on, plug the USB cable to your device and to your PC and initiate Mass Storage mode.

Delete folders on E:/ such as private, sys, system and resource

Format your E:/ drive. I use this formatting tool. Click here. Just click on Full Erase ON.

After formatting your drive, press *#7370# on your home screen. Just click YES to delete all files. It will

restart your device, but as soon as you see the Nokia logo press and hold the Power button until it vibrates

to OFF.

3)Lets Start!

   Before flashing, Make sure that the Firmware files are placed into path C:\Program

Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\RM-596 RM folder number will correspond to the RM number of your device.

1. Connect your device via USB cable and make sure it’s turned OFF. Run Phoenix software. Select “NO

CONNECTION” as connection type.

2)Click File then select “Open Product”

3)A window will appear, select the device model and the corresponding product code of your phone. To find your product code – Press *#0000# on your dialer while your mobile device is on.

4)Select “Firmware Update” option in “Flashing” menu.

5)Press “…” button on the top-right corner of the window to select the language pack/product code You want to use on your flashing. Click on the product code / language pack that you have selected and press OK button.

6)It will now show the Product code you have selected. Tick the “Dead phone USB flashing”

7)Click on “Refurbish”. Then you’ll get a pop-up window, follow the instruction. If it did not work, best option is to Disconnect the USB cable from your device. Press and Hold the Power button of your phone

for 8 seconds. Once it vibrates, release the Power button and immediately connect the USB back into your

phone’s port. Then you should see the flashing starts.

8)After some seconds of flashing, it will pause and prompts for the same instructions as above. Do the same

trick as mentioned in Step #7.

9)When the update process finished, a window will appear “Firmware updating succeeded”. Your phone

will automatically restarts when flashing is done. After that, you can safely remove your data cable from

your device. In some cases, when using a CFW, it wont says “Firmware updating succeeded” but will

just say “Flashing  Completed”. When that happens, the device screen will show  “Local  mode” or

“Test mode” or in Nokia Logo. You can try to turn in off by holding the Power button for 8 seconds

untill it reaches the multiple vibration. Then restart your device – most of the time it works after that. But

if not, you have to repeat the flashing process again.
