MTH800: Erased flash

[kdeam]

Hello,

I was performing several tests on my MTH800 Terminal yesterday, however in that process I have accidentally erased the complete flash, now my terminal is unable to start in flash mode anymore and now comes up as an unrecognized device in windows

is there a way to restore the software on it

Yes, it is. You must connect terminal to CPS via RS232 cable.

you don't need to spend money on the expensive tetra rs232 cable.
you can also use this ******** iDEN rs232 cable: NKN6544B
you will find them on ebay for ~5$

Kdeam, it works this solution?
Do you solved the problem?
I have the same problem at my MTP850S radio...

[nintrew]

periquito, yes it works! i flashed my mth800 already twice back to life

I also confirm that it works.

Thanks all
I'll buy the cable and will report my experience

Hi, I received the cable, but with no success.
I use CPS+ depot 6.0.2 and clicking on "detec radio on RS232 port" don't detects any radio. I tried the same with another correct operating radio and don't detects it too.
The cable and the computer works ok, and I tried the procedure with another PC.
May be I must use another old CPS version?
I have the original codeplug of the erased radio, and all release packs that I can need.
Somebody can help me?
I don't know if I need same flashtool aplication....
Thank you all for your time
