Nuked Bold 9900, Pls help! flashing red light and bootlooping!
I have a completely nuked bold 9900. After putting it on charger/putting in charged battery, it only flashes red light and does nothing, after some time it flashes again and bootloops until it dies, if its on charger it just bootloops and after some time just stops and turns off. I tried every combination, swapping the batteries, charging without battery etc. around 2 times it actually tried to boot on charger with battery and has gotten to loading screen. 1st time it has gotten to around 70% on loading bar before turning off and again bootlooping and 2nd time it had loaded about 30% and it just stayed on it. after couple of hours i turned it off.
I decided it had to be a software issue. downloaded the (i think) right version, plugged in the phone and the blackberry desktop software told me that it cant "connect" to phone and to resolve issue i can update which i did. the phone somehow connected (still bootlooping) and the progress bar has gotten to connecting to jvm and it just wont go past this. it just gives me an error "application loader was unable to connect with your device. Please re-connect your device, enter the password, if required, and click Retry." i can either retry or cancel, and what do you know, ofc clicking retry gives me the same error. please help, idk what to do atp really!
