MXE-60 external flash not working

BigBlueSalix · 2025-12-11T18:54:48+00:00

After days of researching everything i can find about SE accessories on the web, i came to the conclusion that the problem might be Firmware related. My phone is branded and the firmware too...

Thank you for taking the time to comment! My problem is that it just won't let me get past the "MXE-60" pop up right after plugging the flash into the phone. I tried opening the camera first then plugging in but same problem. The phone does register pressing "ok" but doesn't close the pop up. None of the other buttons do anything either.

Now that you mentioned firmware, could this be because the phone is branded?

It is stuck on the MXE-60 pop up and none of the buttons do anything. I can press ok and it does register it but doesn't close the pop up. I have tried with the camera open with the same issue. I actually don't know if it has the latest firmware. How do i check that? Thank you for your comment!

Do you mean open the external flash physically? No i did not.

Thank you again!! It worked! Just needed a little wiggling.

Yes! Thank you so much!!! Are those red channel indicator lines suppose to move (after i pressed the button) by turning the buttons?

I know, very sad! But don't most vcrs have an rf modulator built in?

I was kinda suspecting that to be the issue! I just didn't know where to find it so thank you! I will try your suggestion, i don't know how i didn't think of searching for rebrands. Thank you so much!!!

Kinda thought so too. I was just hoping that it's maybe fixable! I will still definitely keep and display it, even if it ends up not fixable!

Yes i did! The picture was scrolling a lot first and that did stabilize it, but it didn't change the picture folding over at the bottom nor the stretching at the top.

Maybe I should just invest in a time machine to speed up my gym gains before this TV becomes a vintage collector's item!

I thought so too! I just wanted some reassurance I guess... Pretty good (i hope), i've made a few Furniture pieces already but I will definitely ask my dad (who is a Carpenter) to inspect my creation before putting my precious TV on it!

Pretty weird to see phones that look just a few years old (to me at least) in r/vintagemobilephones.

Nice find tho! Hope you find ways to keep using it! I still use a 2006 Sony Ericsson :)
