Thanks for your help gbrooks. My last celfone was t68i so i'm very excited to have the p910. This relocking thing just annoys me though.
It seems that only i have this problem coz i tried searching the forums for this topic and i couldn't find one. |

100% impossible to kill a phone with software (well maybe 1). Infact i challenge anyone to kill a new SEMC phone (k700, s700 etc etc) with software that could not be repaired by davinci, TMS, Setool or cruiser.
Only way to kill a phone is with hammer, brick, maybe also run over it with a Tank.
People, it is very safe. |

@gbrooks3 - My apologies mate, but that is just what the Manager of the authorised  Service Center here in my place told me. I just got my K7 last week (2nd round) and was planning to a firmware upgrade until the Manager told me that just recently they had a case (very 1st he said in their shop) that a K7 firmware upgrade resulted to a - DEAD SET  So, I changed my plans of upgrading mine as it may be included in the RECENT list of casualties I am not technically an Einstein in this field, but I was just relying my posts/replies here from the facts I gathered from reliable sources, in this case, a certified Service Center. I remain!

I would love to hear about this DEAD SET a little more. Using EMMA II hardlock dongle i would have to say this is incredible. Although EMMA II is no where near as powerful as SEtool and Cruiser i find it difficult to know how it happened (i truely believe ou though). Its possible to screw a phone up with davinci so that EMMA II might have trouble flashing it.............interesting. |

@gbrooks3 - It looks like that you are a celfone technician (by profession) pal With all the terms you've posted, I am now at a lost if we are still talkin' 'bout celfone terminologies or some famous personality ICONS here: Emma/Cruise/Da Vinci  I have some doubts though if those technicians 'cannibalised' the fone (instead of the simple upgrading) to make it result to a DEAD set  - just kidding of course. Will ask the Manager the main reason for it's - untimely demise (K7)!

hahahhaha, i am not a professional, lol
I just read things and speak to some very clever people - i am still learning 
The only thing i can think of was that the K700i was flashed with CID36 firmware which EMMA II cant handle - probably phone isnt dead - just needs to be recovered with the required RSA certifacate.
I would love to know what the manager person says though.
Thanks 
Your posts, as always, are fantastic |

@brooks - A fantastic post Well, that only happens once in a blue moon pal. I just envy you knowing how those terminologies - works, when put in practice I guess . . .

Indeed, well SEMC firmware is pretty easy to understand
Here is an extract from the firm:
Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES
Looks like semc developers like to make their coding interesting |

Excellent!
You signature is tiny - it needs a bit of beefing up

@brooks - Will 're-decorate' that sometime mate. Going back to the topic, so what firmware you have now with your K7 pal? Some technicians at the Service Center here told me that, software upgrade will only make the 'move' of the joystick a bit faster compared before, but the stand-by time of the battery will not be that noticeable, is this true dude? Thanks!

I have not recieved my K700i yet, i had a V800 - converted to a Z800i of course
As soon as i get the K7 on Saturday morning it will have R2AT firmware. With a few customized features like my Z800 SE::NSE STYLE!

@brooks - Looks like that's the LATEST firmware for the K7 mate - R2AT . . . The last one I heard was that of the R2L . . . Good Luck pal I hope it'll not be considered a De . . . oh never mind (fingers-crossed) !
