Doesn't debrand require you to flash the firmware as well? That is likely able to solve BROD..correct me if I am wrong. |

I initially thought that debranding was not a complete flash but it seems that you have to reflash to a brand new FW to remove carrier branding anyway. So in essence the different intent designates the reflash by different terms. Unless I am missing something. |

Yeah, debrand = Flash. I was getting the 50Euro for unlocking mixed up.
If the truth be known, Id prefer to just do a Main flash of the currently installed F/W (if it were poss and save all my bits and bobs) but for £5 i'l take that option of a full flash and custom'

@Classicguy K850i has no match so far. It's just a GREAT PHONE in all aspects.

No, it isn't necessary. You'll lose some options(in menu) if u do a master reset.

My restarts are not through overloading the OS, in fact Im hardly using the phone at all right now, yesterdays crash came from asking the phone to open the camera and some reboots happen when the phone is just sitting on my desk.
Seeing so many people getting the BROD is making me nervous. |

I really would like to get e new firmware that handles the camera and/or the processing of the shots taken much better!
Look at my shot of the purple flower in macro mode here:
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=156144
It's disturbing how the shots come out all fuzzy around the edges of, in this case, the flower!

Hi,I dont want to repeat things here,but how can I save my K850 after a blue ring of death? Can I try to re-upgrade the FW or I have to give it to a SE center so they fully flash it? |
