I don't think that we have "permanently" damaged the BT hardware by doing the upgrade flashes...however, having said that, having a chipset that is talking to "new" firmware that doesn't communicate properly with it is about the same as having damaged goods. On the issue of down-flashing to other versions, until we know "exactly" which hardware versions work with which firmware revisions, this is an endless debate. Just sort of fumbling around the dark, so to speak. But I'm sure that we are getting closer...tomorrow, I'm going to go to a friends cellphone "superstore" and see if I can get some more version info for all of us. By the way, my phone is 02W25...keep hacking!

Well, I have just read (to backup) and flashed my phone to R5D007 and everything looks fine in relation to standby time, will confirm later....can't test the bluetooth, but then again i'm not that fussed.
I will go and see if I can get a BT demo in some shop and use my phone as a test device, just for your records
Here are my details....
Originally T68m R1b s/w r1b h/w week 49 2001
Now T68i (R5D007 English and Eastern Europe Language pack)
I used the logs supplied by Unlocking, with the 6.52 Ericsclient (Thai.zip) from Unlocking. R5D firmware from Sevenfire.
Well Chuffed

You can also use another T68i or m phone to discover it

I'm not sure, as my T68m has not been a victim of the bluetooth thing yet (i've tested every time i flashed)... and I've flashed it with every conceivable firmware that is out publicly.
the only gripe i have with r2e006 is that it is the chinese version... meaning that the phonebook along with other menu aspects are stuck in medium font.
I've noticed this with all chinese firmwares... is this a known bug that they refuse to fix?

thejason,
Do you think that perhaps phones with broken BT can be flashed with R2E006 to regain normal settings?

Just a quick question/confirmation before I flash my phone...
1- should sim card be removed from my phone ?
2- phone should be off before connecting to cable/ericsclient ?
I am updating from T68m R2B013 to R5D007 eu (hardware R4C)
thanks for your help...and wish me luck. (i hope the force is with me).
