> t630 continually restarting (
Bookmark topic
i've been handed a t630 that is continually restarting. it is unlocked and unbranded, i can switch it on but within a minute it turns of and restarts.
in the limeted time it gives i've been able to try all the service tests and i have found that the real time clock test fails!!.. never heard of this before
i've done a search on here and google but have found only descriptions of what the real time clock does nothing about it failing
can anyone help with ideas of what i can try, the phone dosn't give me enough time to do a master reset

i tried one from my old t610 and it made no difference
just tried connecting it to my pc with DSS-25 and float mobile agent but it keeps failing
also noticed it wont let me turn on IR or bluetooth the phone just freezes then restarts

Hmmm . . . I was planning to get me a black t630, I better get me a brand new one, if ever.

JN i wouldn't let this case put you off as i've known hundreds of people that have been using these phones without a problem. i do lots of repairs to mobile and this is the first time i've come accross this with any phone
but on a side note i've noticed the k700i has dropped dramaticly in price over the last couple of weeks. only £179 on mobilefun.co.uk now was nearly £100 more a few weeks ago

it is a software problem, as u mentioned the phone has been unbranded, meaning the previous owner most likely flashed it himself. or her. what you will find is that the 2 flash files used do not match. i am talking about the firmware version. goto service menu then SW information. and on line one and four there should be a number starting with R then a number then C then 3 numbers. for example
r6c005
or r4c003
etc.
if these numbers dont match then it is a firmware mismatch.
hope this helps
