Hi list,

I've had two nice days with my Alcatel. Now I've bricked it. As a side
note, would it be possible that when someone types

$ ./flash.sh --help

That there's actually a help page displayed and not fastboot flashing is
initiated right away? That's what happened to me and now the phone is
dead :-(

Well, not dead. It's actually booting up and I can do stuff with it.
It's just not a "phone" anymore: Doesn't ask for a SIM PIN and I can't
do calls (obviously).

Now in anticipation of my stupidity, I've created backups of /dev/mtd*
as Krzysztof Adamski describes at
http://k.japko.eu/alcatel-otf-hackers-guide-1.html

$ cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 >/mnt/sdcard/boot.img
$ cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 >/mnt/sdcard/system.img
$ cat /dev/mtd/mtd5 >/mnt/sdcard/userdata.img
$ cat /dev/mtd/mtd7 >/mnt/sdcard/recovery.img

The problem is that when I try to flash system or userdata, this happens:

[...]
writing 'userdata'...
FAILED (remote: flash write failure)

The phone is afterwards completely unusable (doesn't leave bootloader
anymore).

So could please someone help me to either create a working image that
I've built myself that actually recognizes the SIM card and works as a
phone or to be able to successfully flash back my backup? I'm kind of
desperate, it was all working pretty nicely and now I broke it :-(

Thanks a lot,
Best regards,
Joe
