Sorry, this isn't a reply but yet another question - if it shouldn't be addressed here, please point me to the correct thread. I really don't want to waste anyone's time, but I've searched this forum site without finding anything that works.
<<<Frozen Meizu M6 SP 8GB (SN M6SP08GGCOKRT7669)>>>
I've had the M6 for 8 or so months and, once before now, had to do a soft reset (hold on to 'enter' for 20 secs). However today, I had a problem:
> I switched the M6 on, the screen came on, I touched the (touch-sensitive) pad, and a set of horizontal lines appeared on the screen, and the M6 locked up.
> I reset (pressed the 'enter' key for 20 seconds) and the M6 turned off. However, it would not turn on.
> I have since tried soft resets, hard resets and formats and, finally, downloaded the DFU tools for the SP - however, I cannot even install these tools, as I get the message 'The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be installed. The system cannot find the file specified.'
> The M6 flashes very briefly when the on/off switch is pressed and when a USB cable is inserted, but no other reaction can be triggered.
> I bought this on eBay from a HongKong seller - Have I now got nothing more than a piece of scrap?
Regards, Allan Hodgson.
