    1. Without any OS your phone can't boot. I guess your only option is to access recovery mode, and install fresh OS, though I'm not pretty sure how to do that.

    1. BROM ERROR:S_FT_NEED_DOWNLOAD_ALL_FAIL (4050). This is because the file system is read only. Ive trying other methods. Superonclick, Uberizer and ADB commands in order to mount file system into read-write mode, until now, unsuccessful. This A390 I bough from DX.COM and seems to belong to a operator wo-3g. And has been very hard to mount to RW. I don´t know how to do it and Ive been trying several examples on internet to try to RW the file system. And always the same response. The file system is READ-ONLY and can´t get out from this status. No methods works with this blocked file system. Anybody has the same problem or a solution?

  33. BROM ERROR: S_FT_NEED_DOWNLOAD_ALL_FAIL (4050)
    Ive got this error and try several other ways and the main problem is I just can´t and don't know how to change the file system to read-write. It remains read-only even using ADB commands. I've bought this A390 in DX.COM and it seems belong to the operator Wo-3g and absolutely blocked on the file system. Until now impossible to root. Besides it has no recovery menu pressing on+vol up.
