VS6FX, how did you flash it? using the language file method, or the 2 file AVR ARM method?

if it helps, i've flashed all the files to my T68m, and none worked to the point where I had my original standy by time. All had the dreaded 50-60 hour standby thing. Even when I flashed using the language method. I finally flashed to my original firmware (thank god i backed it up) and got my standbytime back.

i just flashed my R4b hardware version T58m from R2D to R5D and there are no problems what so ever. BT is fine, and my standby time is fine. I am a happy person!

Funny thing, my T68m is also R4B hardware... what week is yours? and where did you obtain the flash files? Mine is week 25.

I have no idea what week is my phone.. but my T68m was obtained about a month ago from the Good Guys. It's a Cingular T68m. The R5D files i have are basically from this site, provided from waikincheng. hope that helps.

on the back of your T68 is a number right above the barcode that is similar to mine that says "02W25" meaning mine was made in 2002, week 25. I got mine from cingular about a month ago too...

Hey all, just finished with the upgrading of t68m to 68i r5c firmware...and as indicated...everything that is wrong with the upgrade (shorter standby/talktime) is there, but bluetooth works fine..as far as hbh-10 and hbh-30 is concerned. Now, I'm debating whether or not to do my t68i (r3b) firmware...two questions:
1) What in the heck is a .RAR file, it is posted as fw R5D on
www.alfamobil.cz/support.html. Is that some sort of zip format? I don't understand it and I would like to try my hand at the R5D version.
2) When I followed waikinchen's instructionsd in upgrading the phone, it cost me 2 credits!! instead of 1, like he stated? Any one knows why? I just bought another 2 credits (just in case) from logosunlimited and would like to find out what happened before I go and burn another 2 credits. What happened for me was, I loaded the AVR file, clicked on write, it logged on to the server and flashed the file...then I loaded the ARM file and the wrote to phone, it did its logging thing and verifying username and pw thing and the flashed the phone, all the way to 100% and then everything went fine. So I go back and plugged in my phone (t68i) and tried to read the software to back it up just in case something went wrong and then it told me I was out of credits!!!???
At any rate, thanks alot guys for all of the learning and patience. I tried to do a search for RAR but all kinds of strange things came up, nothing that answered my question. Again, thanks!!

I just flashed my phone using the ericsson client software and an R5D007 binary. I used the flash language method.
Now the phone is completely dead and the client says "failed to restore security data".
What can i do?
