Place the battery back inside & press the volume down button,camera button & the power button all together. the phone will power up & will have a screen as shown below.

13th Step- The next step is VERY IMPORTANT, choose Rsrc2 (LOW) & not (MID). MID is know to have problems while booting the phone.
14th Step- Finally the MASTER ROM.
15th Step- At last the MULTILOADER should look like below, now click on the PORT SEARCH.
16th Step- Once you have pressed PORT SEARCH, the COM PORT will come up in the filed shown, Click on DOWNLOAD.
Flashing process starts. MultiLoader will erase your phone firmware and install new firmware. My person experience tells that the process will take about 15-30 minutes.
After the process is complete your phone will restart.
Now you are ready with the new firmware. put on the sim, memory card back.
restart it again.
Dark Forest's has recommend preforming a hard reset after a flash. This just makes sure every thing is cleared out and the firmware loads clean but this is not required.(In my case I had to do this)
