Help with K800i frequent WSOD

I upgraded my firmware to R8BF003 and it works fine for 1 month. Then I get the White Screen. It is white and nothing happens, no IR light the screen is just white permanently and nothing happens. So I connect my phone again and it is recognized, so I reflash the firmware. It works for 1 day and then WSOD again. I thought maybe it was the R8BF003 firmware so I get R8BA024 and flash that. It works fine for one day again and I feel pretty confident that it was a good flash because everything is working properly then it WSOD today.

What's wrong with my phone? I'm getting scared that one day the phone may brick permanently and may not be revived. Anyone know what may be the problem? I'm considering whether or not I should resell the phone, it's in really good shape and it works great when its working it just WSOD frequently. I paid $240 for this and I don't want to end up selling it for a brick/glitched phone price of $80-120.

Its probibly the erom.

Search for "K800 repair erom" on google.

The best way is to buy a wotan credit, download the client, put in l/p,remove reinsert battery in phone, hit connect in wotan, connect phone while holding 2+5

I dont even trust wotan anymore they fail at all the times I used that site to fix phones I ditched them and started using davinci team and all the problems I had fixing phones and my old phone went away once I stopped using wotan.

You should give them a try definit

seking is good too. They all have there ups and downs..

If the phone is white screening in the middle of a flash its prolly just time to invest in a new phone.

You can keep trying, but I bet it never works, sounds hardware related.
