So I was going through my MOTO Razr V6 the other day and saw a graphics section. There were in GIF format so I thought that I could put my own stuff in there.
Today I tried it out. Moments later... my phone is flashing on and off every 10 seconds and I can't reconnect it to my computer to get it out. In fact, it almost froze my computer. I tried removing the battery. When I put it back in, the phone did the same thing without me having to turn it back on
Is it possible for the phone dealer to wipe the entire memory clean so it works again without turning it on? I think a person could go to the Master Reset area in the initial setup and input the code before the phone turns off again but it can get annoying and the phone might not wipe completely before it shuts off again.
I love this phone to death and I have about 70 DDR songs on there with FELM as my ringtone.
The ironic thing is, my dad was talking to his friend about the iPhone and how Apple is trying to get rid of them for the new products earlier today.

Nope. Just a white screen and then it comes back on.
I have to go to the place I got my phone and hope they can do something with it

Is the card a kind that you can stick directly in your computer, or can only the phone read it?

This happened to my Bro's phone. You're just stuck getting a "replaced" one. If you go to the phone place, they will clam it's moisture damage (and that's BS.) and you can't get a new phone because It's "Still a working phone"
At less that's what happened to my Bro.

It uses a USB connection to connect to the computer. It also uses Bluetooth but I don't bother with it.
The only thing I can do is take it to the phone place. If they say "moisture damage" however, I'm unleashing hell upon them.

Tell us how that goes. Maybe you tampered with something without realizing it?
I don't have any input; I don't know much about phones.

Try a Lawnmower, it may just help.

Apparently, I have to send it back to New York to let them clear it. 4 to 6 weeks plus shipping and handling. I'm hoping a local phone store near my place can do it without shipping it.

I know exactly what I did to my phone. I tried to put a .gif image in there because it looked like it could take it, seeing how there was a graphics area in the phone. It doesn't.
I at least had some fun with my phone yesterday. I was playing "Beat the Clock" with my phone trying to copy all of my numbers onto my SIM card before the phone flashed off. I managed to get 4 phone numbers onto my card before it flashed off, the average being 2 numbers. I managed to get all of them copied so I won't have to email a friend to get the phone numbers of all of my buddies.
A Lawnmower could work but it's a ~$200 phone.
