ZZZzzzzZZZZ
My phone reboots itself very often (about three times a week) while doing nothing. It is very annoying! I'm usually in a hurry, waiting for an important call or mail and getting bored seeing the PIN: prompt...
Is it normal or not?
My phone had R2A, now R3B. Nothing changed.
Many thanks!!! |

Try to upgrade the phone. R3B isn't the latest firmware version for R520m. The latest one is R4A008.
The problem could also be the contact-pins for the battery.

I used to have a r520m (miss it a lot actually) that reboots a number of times. Right, have it upgraded to r4a, my t39 and my brother's r520 was cured of the rebooting problem with the latest fw.

I got that problem too after flashing. They gave me a new phone flashed with the same firmware, but problem persisted. Took it to a service point in another country, flashed it again and it was fine. |

ESTOR: It's really nice! Maybe I will try it too! 
(Why they don't let us to flash our phones? Where are those #$*@ firmware release notes? Nomorestupidquestions.) |

Well, if the service points can screw up flashes with such not-that-rare frequency, imagine the problems if end-users are allowed to do it. |

tataaam.
I have R4A now. The problem seems to be gone, but the upgrade happened only a week ago, so I will report back later.

I also encounter such problems with my phone especially if u access some WAP sites using a GPRS connection, more often during downloading backgrounds.

Hi!
My reboot problem vanished (permanently) with a cleaning/upgrade.
Finally I found a good service point in Hungary.
Their work is clean, fast, good, and most important, they fill the warranty card correctly.
Thanks for your help and patience. |
