i870..FLASHStrap/White Screen...What's going on?? Flashtrap mode is the programming mode for nextel phones. Normally this mode is engaged through Carrier RSS or some other program. But...I think...I remember reading somewhere that you can manually put your phone in this mode by pressing a sequence of keys on your phone while powering on the phone. This is not recommended, so carefull what buttons you push while powering on your phone. @qumara...Glad you got your phone working. If you didn't want to upgrade, I think if you removed your battery and put it back in, this might have solved your problem. I'm glad you asked around though before attempting anything. You were told right. Messing with codeplugs and your phone in flashtrap can turn your phone into an expensive paperweight.

i870..FLASHStrap/White Screen...What's going on?? It's no bother, I 've never heard of Flashstrap myself. So in my search, I too am learning about this issue. Let me know what happens.
i870..FLASHStrap/White Screen...What's going on?? Camstuf thanks for replying, As I stated in my 1st post I did alot of searching, but I couldn't come up with anything that seemed to fit my situation. I admit I'm clueless when It comes to cell phone technology. I've been told one mistake I could permanently mess up my phone so i wanted to be sure I have the right info before starting this..... 1. I just bought my USB cable (comp sees it) 2. Now I'm DL'ing the carrier rss am I on the right track? i'm sorry to be a bother, but I really need my phone working
i870..FLASHStrap/White Screen...What's going on?? I did a :search: and found this info and this from the same site Flashtrap: Turn the phone off then hold down the two soft keys. keep holding them while you power it on. Connect to PC and run GPS uprgade or reload origional cp. You will need your origional code plug , a USB data cable, and RSS.
