Thank you for your prompt response. I downloadeded the 0.42 Rom and placed in the following path C:\Flashtool\firmwares and then run FlashTool.exe then it open up the software. When i clicked the Flash icon its shows Flash Cancelled. Please advise.

was your phone on flashmode? to root use SuperOneClick

[Uliwooly]

ok I see what happened, you probably moved the usb cable and/or released the back/volume button too early

check the video on how to flash here
