    Is it a GSM or CDMA phone? Who is your provider?

    There are different versions around. Do you want the Vodafone or an unbranded flash, and is it a R26 or a R24 software on it? Start the phone in BL mode, # and * and "power on" simultaneously to start the phone. There are different firmwares too, but Brandingfree R26_U_83.39.23I is the latest I can get you. But this would be only for V980 with R26_U_83.38.38.04.01P or higher.
    (Use 7zip to unzip the file http://www.7zip.com/ ), http://rapidshare.com/files/22513322...37_1FF.7z.html

    thank you so much sir... the unbranded one is perfect ... thank you so much again...

    I dont know how to thank you enough ") if i had money i would donate a huge amount to this forum.. but unfortunately im as poor as that guy that was kicked out of wall street

    thank you again sir

    edit: oh sir... the phone's bootloader is 05f1 and the software is r24... anyways.. I'm downloading the file that you have uploaded... i'll try the r26 and see if it works with this ancient fone of mine

    Sir i have downloaded the file but MSTOOL cant open it... it says it is an invalid file... i am sorry... i know i'm being a nuisance...

    UPDATE: Sir I have finally got MSTOOL to recognize the file but during flashing.... the phone turns off... an error appears when it comes to the point when its uploading cg1.

    UPDATE:

    I finally made it work... the problem was the Bootloader... i upgraded the bootloader to 6.12 and it all worked... the cursor are working again and the external LCD is working again too.

    @Dumba: thank you so much for your help sir...

    edit: I used RSD LITE and some bootloader files i found using the almighty google. Anyone needing these files just PM me...
