Hi everyone, long story short. I tried to update the leaked version of Bada 2.0.1 firmware S8500XPKG5 and broke my phone shortly half way into the process. So the case for me is a phone with one line of white on a pure black screen. Just that. So if I remove the battery or force shut down, the next moment when I on the phone, its pure pinky red screen of death. Scared the hell out of me for 2 days till I solved the whole broken down process.
Trouble shoot = Nutshell, I flashed on the wrong Multi loader. I did it on the v5.62 (WRONG!!!)
Warning : Make sure your phone is not carrier lock, sim lock or password lock of any kind.
So you are here with a bricked phone, this is the step that I took to recover my broken bricked wave S8500.
These are the full step by step to flash a firmware, follow only the red highlighted if your phone has broke like mine.
1) Make sure that the standard theme is installed
2) Download s8500xpkg5.rar and unpack the files
3) Install the included usb-driver before connecting your phone
4) Connect with Kies and restore the drivers
5) Close Kies
6) Start Multiloader
7) Drag and drop the files into Multiloader (All 8 files from "bootloader" to "ShpApp.app")
8) Select LSI, Full Download and Master ROM
9) Remove SD-Card, SIM-Card and battery, put the battery back in.
10) Click "port search" and after it finds a port "Download" (if it doesn't find a port, try a different usb port)
11) Wait until it is done! Takes about 10 minutes. (DO NOT POWER OFF)
12) Kies -> restore drivers
13) You can only sync contacts.
14) *#5239870*# --> PreConfig --> *#27236*# -->confirm --> XEU (UK setting)
15) *#33284*# --> Low (to avoid bluescreens)
Here is a video I made to show you my process, leave a comments if this helps you :)
This post is about a mod pack I have made…the pack includes all the mods from H2O, but it is for people who don’t like all the mods, or they fear to flash their device again or they just can’t do it at the moment
But, most of all it is for people who would like to make their own mod or just customize mods in H2O…
that’s why this post includes the DOCUMENTATION and explaining about almost all the mods included
so, here’s the sis file with all the mods, you can choose which mods to install during the installation

COMMON PROBLEMS:
- IF YOU GET “UPDATE ERROR” IT MEANS THAT YOU ARE USING SOME OTHER MODS THAT USES THE SAME FILES! YOU HAVE TO UNISTALL THEM FIRST, IF YOU WANT TO USE MY MODS, OTHERWISE THE PACKAGE CAN’T INSTALL.

Set 0×4 to 3, which is the Graphic FX quality (kastors quality) default was 8 (maybe), I
lowered this because I think 8 is not needed, and to improve speed
