So... enough of BROD. I figured SE will not do anything so lets try to figure out a correlation between BROD and what we have done. Why? Two reasons.
1. Prevent future BRODs by finding a correlation
2. Just maybe SE may find this data useful and may release a BROD free firmware.

Okay, So lets get started shall we


1. When did it happen?
Talking/Listening to Music etc/As soon as you switched it on/In standby/other(specify)

2. Did it happen after updating by SEUS?

3. How have u corrected the problem? (DaVinci/SE Service Center/KK Client)

4. How many times have you been hit by BROD?

5. What is your current firmware?

6. Is your phone branded/unbranded?

7. What is your theory to the cause of BROD?

Thanks for your time...

The reason that causes BROD is some firmware versions that have that bug inside... Updating the firmware has nothing to do with this. I mean, if you update to firmware that contains BROD, it will happen someday... Firmware update can solve the problem ...

What i know BROD seams to be a software issue, causing your phone to have a slow death.
which cannot be revived due SUES.

There is no BROD report on the new R1F Firmware (yet), lets hope for the best.

I only had one reboot after the update, thats was my first and last one ..

...you spent more effort on this reply than what you would've had you explained what BROD is.

... and you've not answered it, too.

It's the Blue Ring Of Death, a serious bug when your K850 won't turn on and just the ring around the camera lights up.

Felt as if it was in standby, but a sceldual appointment might have gone off at that time

2. Did it happen after updating by SEUS?
no

davinci
4. How many times have you been hit by BROD?
1

7. What is your theory to the cause of BROD?
Overloading of cpu/ram, easily solved by restarting the the phone every day. I have proof of this theory. Leave an app running, then record a sound 3+ mins, i bet you anything you'll get a restart
