Flash V8 Gold

[HateitOrLoveIt]

Does anyone have any instructions for flashing a V8 Gold Luxury Edition 2gb..?If so what are the compatible firmwares I can flash it to?

Does flashing a new firmware reset the lifetime calls?

Hey I need a favor!! I flashed my phone to R601_G_80.56.15R and it works great! also have the latest cf boot loader.

I have the V8 gold and I want that firmware back. Can you make a back up of your firmware please?!!! I have looked everywhere and I can't find the 2Gb V8 Luxury Edition firmware.

To answer your question, I used RSD lite 3.9(seach for it on google).
I found the firmware mentioned above, then extracted the .rar file.
connected my phone to my pc to make sure my pc would recognize it...
then turned off my phone and then put it in bootloader mode>> *# and power button
from there i used RSD lite.
Don't touch your pc or phone while flashing!!

Its in the Super Firmware Thread.

what directions did you use to flash it, did it reset lifetime calls?

by flashing your phone, EVERYTHING is erased! try to back up your contact with MPT.

Where is this super firmare thead?>> nevermind I found it. thanks for letting me know about it.

What is your current firmware version and do yo have any Chinese in your menus? Is your current firmware running well?

hateitorleave it try reflashing one more time with;
R601_G_80.56.15R GSQLID02GBLUXAPMY084. I just flashed to this yesterday and it works really well. I got it from that V8 bible miror for the V8 LE

I also put my bootloader to A3.CF and it's flawless! Upgrading the bootloader is the same as flashing the phone.

Hope this helps.
