Reviving dead phones & Repair PDS(Tutorial)

[hydroponik]

I am having an issue here, I did a master reset on the phone hoping to clear all data but apparently it messed up the phone instead. I tried to flash back to the MP I was using via RSD Lite but it got stuck at 3% and eventually failed. I tried flashing to the original MP from my phone and it went through but when I turn the phone on, it only starts the bootloader.

So I tried the steps here, and I am stuck on the F&B3 step to revive the dead loader. It starts then just disconnects itself.

Is there anything I can do now? When you start the phone now, it's just in blank mode and I can't flash to anything in RSD Lite, help please.

I know this guide is for RIZR, but I have a KRZR.

Thank you!!! my Z3 is working again. Minor problem though, after I unbricked my phone with your tutorial, it needs a "subsidy password" after I turned it on. This Z3 was unlocked before I bricked. Again, TY diabolic for the easy to read tutorial.

After TP and verified by RSD that it is S Blank Neptune LTE2, opened ramldr2,click "send loader"-then it seem to be stuck, does not say 'ready' if i click 'write boot' phone get disconnected. Nothing goes right from then on.
Can somebody please help, help.
I can follow written instruction pretty well and i know a bit about computer. this thing seem to confuse me a bit.
I've mod my V3 with no problem. this Z3 of mine looks like a brick now...
HELP please...
