You can flash your dead Nokia mobile phone by yourself using a USB data cable/connectivity cable. The tool, which is required to flash the phone, is Nokia’s Phoenix Service Software. Please remember that you can perform a successful flash on your phone only if its firmware has been lost or corrupted. If your phone is not turning on due to any hardware issue, then this procedure will not work for it. To flash a dead Nokia mobile phone, follow the below steps:
1. Download and install the Phoenix Service Software
2. Download the firmware of your phone. You can download it with Navifrim or can search it on the web
3. Install the firmware to the directory C:\Program Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\Folder*
4. The Folder* should be created manually for the concerned firmware, if it is not created during firmware installation. If the firmware files are in form of .zip or any other compression, then extract/copy the firmware files to the specified location. For example, for keeping the firmware files of RM-240, the location will be C:\Program Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\RM-240
5. The above mentioned location is default for Phoenix Service Software. If you have installed the Phoenix Service Software in a different location, then make sure to keep the folder with firmware files within Products folder
6. After successful installation, launch Phoenix Service Software
7. Connect your mobile phone using the USB data cable/connectivity cable of the phone
8. Select “No Connection” in Phoenix Service Software window as shown below

10. Select the product version for your phone from the list. You can find it under the battery in your phone. If you don’t know, which firmware is suitable for it, then search it on the web by model name

Insructions: If your mobile phone is not detected by the Phoenix Service Software, then you may need to install the PC Suite of the phone or the flashing drivers manually.

(15-07-2016, 07:21 PM)walexydakinga The Phoenix software couldn't detect any product code. My phoenix software was installed in program Files x86 and I've moved the rm-635 for my Nokia 2690 into the product folder. But it still didn't detect product code either manually or automatically
here you can download latest walton firmware please check this site <a href="http://www.flashfile9.com/p/download-walton-mobile-flash-file-stock.html"/>walton flash file</a>

I bought second-hand Asha210(RM-924), and find it is an Indian version with a China version shell and Chinese system. However I didn't know this before I restore factory setting with Nokia Software Recovery Tool.
After restoring operation, I was shock by the English interface.So I tried to flash a Chinese Mainland version in it, I failed server times by using Phoenix.
I downloaded Phoenix 2010 Creacked but it said " Cannot load, the product RM-924 is not recognised."
Google this message, some websites say one way could solve this: write a sentence in to phoenix.ini
"""
RM-924=NMP.Product.Menu.A.1
[RM-924]
Description=RM-924
"""
restarted Phoenix, scaned phone, failed with a notice window(blank window, no any messages).
But I could see the phone type in "open a product" list, and tried to select my phone manually, double click, the bottom flashed a message "initialize product:RM-924", then back to manual phone type chooesing window.
As I see, maybe the Phoenix version is too old to recognize this phone.
Download the latest version
hoenix_Service_Software_2012.50.001.49220_Crackedwhen I installed it, some errors emerged "C:\Program Files(x86)\Nokia\Phoenix\Phoenix_Service_Software.msi An error occurred while trying to copy a file: The source file is corrupted."
By the way, my computer :Windows 7 Ultimate X64 SP1 and running the installation as administrtor.
That all if any masters need more details, I will tell you all I konw.
