I didn't have a BROD but a flashed with Da Vinci to upgrade my handset. It was soo... easy, i could actually do it with my eyes closed. Purchase credits, create account, download client, connect phone and your away. It costs 10euro, £8, $16. Very easy.
ONE THING, when finished, and turning phone on again, be very patient, my phone displayed the 'Please Wait' Notice for about 2 mins whilst it sorted everything out, very worried that £140 was going to disapear before my eyes, worked simlessly. Upgraded to 031 using SEUS, been going strong for a week now... |

When flashing with Davinci and others,does Davinci ''format'' the K850 before reinstalling the FW?
I am asking that because SE centers could not flash with their own system because they don't erase anything but write over and I think they only flash the FS file without the MAIN,perhaps a SE policy?
The corrupted files are preventing the flashing in SE methods while not with Davinci!!!

Davinci flashes MAIN and FS and FOTA parts of the firmware at the same time. It overwrites the previous ones on the phone, but it doesn't "format" anything.
SEUS only updates MAIN and maybe a part of FS, thus retaining contacts, messages, settings and other things. Davinci resets all those things because it writes the complete firmware (MAIN+FS).
I really wish that SE would come up with a way to back up settings and contacts (including picture and ringtone associations), SMS. Currently, we can only do it partially. This was my problem when I experienced a BROD the other day. I'll be travelling in less than a week, so you guys can imagine my frustration when my phone died so soon before my vacation. Anyway, flashing R1CA037 with Davinci fixed it. I'm not really bothered anymore by having an older firmware, as long as it will work. Took me over two hours to restore everything, though... |

IS the BROD appears only on that phones which was updated with SEUS?
I would update my k850 from R1CA037 to R1EA031, to improve the pictures quality, but I'm afraid of the chance that a BROD could kill my phone. |

i think SE should take out this new 031 firmware from SEUS, there are too many people with BROD!!
How many phone do you think are in SE service centers now with this problem? that's no good for se

Bad news for me! SE technical center here in Lebanon CEPP said my phone is dead and that they can't flash it!!!
Why in the name of God my BROD can't be repaired by SE? I will try with kulankendi tonight or tomorrow...if it works I will send an Email to SE international to shut down CEPP because they would be really a bunch of ****

Hi Guys
Ive just got my new K850i from Tmobile and its got the usual branding on it
When taking a picture should the blue ring light be on cos when i turn the camera on it comes on for a second then goes off!
When debranding the phone what firmware would you put on considering so many people having brod. |
