There is two files you need to download from Davinci. The Main file and the File System (including Language). EU_2 is the customization file but which main file did you download? I think Zone1 is the one you need. If you went for a different main file then this could be why you have had so much problem flashing?

EUX is just the language pack included in the file. You want to look at the firmware version.

The latest available is R2AE033 did you flash this?

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

yep, these are the files:-

k700r2ae_fs-eu2
k700r2ae_main

I can't undersatnd where the problem is. Before I could use Orange no problem....now the signal is there one moment and gone completely the next. Areas where the phone used to work fine now shows as "no network"

It could be a small hardware fault with the antenna. However, try the flash and go from there.

Are U suggesting I reflash?

The signal was fine before the new firmware....can't think it could be hardware.....too much of a coincidence!

Well yes reflash it. Why not? Cant do any harm. I didnt know if you had dropped it or something as it is a fairly common fault.

gbrooks, SUddenly thought, b4 I flashed I charged the phone and one of my dogs knocked it off the table onto my floorboards. It popped the battery and cover off!
I have just removed the antenna cover & BINGO full reception.

Thanks my friend! Dare I put the cover back on!!!!!
