I have been running a bunch of Alltel 8330s using MFI multiloader and have been seeing an issue which I have not seen before. When loading the phones into NAL mode I am seeing some of the handsets fail and display a double blinking red light. I have been able to recover these phones using Loader, but they will not pass MFI (meaning cannot get them into NAL). About 20% of the Alltel 8330s that I have run display this issue. My assumption was that this must have something to do with RTAS security, but all of the phones are ESN phones and I was unable to tell any difference between the ones that fail and the ones that pass. Has anyone seen this issue before? If this is related to security is there any way to check before hand if the security exists?
