Here's another success story for the BT failure fix following the procedure I talked about


And here's another one from MagicMan on HowardForums, the only thing he did differently was that he didn't flash the original arm file back - he just did

Master Reset Phone, Turn off Bluetooth, Turn of IR
Flash ARM with NULL file
Turn on phone, master reset, wait two minutes, pull battery
Flash ARM with new ARM (non-backup)
Master Reset

and it works. (I tried that method before and I couldn't get it working without the orig file, but then again, I must have been too tired)..

HOLY CRAP. I did a master reset then turned bluetooth off then flashed the arm ONLY with the blank. I then did a master reset again then flashed with the same ARM file I once used that wiped out my bluetooth. GUESS WHAT my BLUETOOTH IS BACK. just sent some themes from my pc to the t68m that was once lost.

Also I'm giving a major heads up to LVwireless. I was waiting for a check that I deposited to clear and asked if he would preauthorize a few credits on his server so I could try out my theory. Well he did and I'm going to be paying him as soon as the deposit clears on my account.

thx for the reply!

I have another question... How do I buy logs from unlocking.co.uk? Do I have to contact them? Because I went to their site and didn't see anything which mentions how to purchase logs.

funks..another thing..you mangage to have an APN setting for Data also? This is strange since I only have it for the Express/GPRS data settings...Also, I notice that you have different settings for the APN for the two accounts..can you confirm that you actually have these two settings under Connect/Data Comm/Data Accts?

Thanks


Yup, on my T68i Menu/Connect/Data Comm

I have two GPRS Data Accounts as listed above. (if you pick GSM Data instead of GPRS data, you won't have the option to enter the APN), make sure it's GPRS Data.

The WAP GPRS is supposed to use "wap.cingular" (for Cingular WAP)

The ISP GPRS is supposed to use "ISP.CINGULAR" (For other)

funks..that's strange cuz it works, ref. to dial up wap now, even if you select wap..no apn, and first entry is number to dial..which for me is +14152441012...

Maybe I'll try the other thing...don't think if would affect my GPRS access problems however...just keeps coming back with GPRS Failed...

Hmmm, it seems that you are using GSM Data instead of GPRS data (that's why you have the phone numbers)..

Try creating deleting the Data accounts again and re-create the GPRS Data accounts.. Is the blue GPRS triangle showing up on your phone? I'd also double check with Cingular in regards to the provision of your Wireless Internet Express just in case their messed it up by accident..

funks...I don't want to tie up this thread with non-flashing issues..but I thought that maybe it could be a flashing issue...however, I assure you that I have everything setup correctly on the phone...the blue triangle signal meter has been on for over 3 months now...but here's the kicker...put I chip in a brand new Cingular phone, booted up and signal meter shows GPRS available, tried to log in and nothing...GPRS failed, again and again.

I do have a trouble ticket ongoing at Cingular, they are aware of my problem, and it has been going on for over 2 weeks now...new chip, new phone, they took Express off the account and then reprovisioned it...still nothing...anyways, not an issue here in this thread. Thanks for the 411...

Hi. I'm new to this group, and would like to thank all that contributed to tis group. I have over the last several days read the previous 30 pages of posts, and successfuly flashed my phone. HEHEHEHEH
I flashed an AT&T hardware R6B firmware R2B013 to R5D007 EU. Bluetooth works. I haven't had the time to test everything but the standby and talk times seam OK (2xx hrs/11 hrs or so). I have been looking for this info for a while on the net with no success until I found this forum, and it's fantastic. Thanks for all the firmware files, as well. I have previously unlocked my phone myself using logosunlimited (I didn't know about unlocking.co.uk, could've saved some money), so iI had the cable. All I needed was a log and flash files. Yepeeeee...
The flasing of the ARM stopprd at 100% and hang there but it all seam fine.

Thanks again to all that have contributed to the group. If someone needs my old firmware files let me know (I don't know what for, but you never know).

Cheers

Vlad

P.S. Also if anyone in Toronto, ON, needs help unlocking or flashing,you can e-mail me

I want to get my T68i North American flashed through EMMA (it doesn't have any customizations). Hopefully virtualdynamix will get their EMMA 2 setup so that I can just drive over there to get it flashed (want to get this R6A) - lvwireless hates my guts, cuz I left him bad feedback on hofo..

I'll dump it once I get the update, it might be a good one for you people who are in north america and want to get rid of the customizations on your phones (AT&T T68is R5D007 is a good firmware but it does have the LOGO DOWNLOAD disabled - you can't save pictures from WAP sites)..

If somebody get's one earlier, please share with the rest of us

G

PM, me - G.
