I've got one problem with my Ericsson R320s after flashing it with ATR 5.3. I've flashed it with flash file 320R4BE2 - 125229.

After that the battery of the phone started to drain very quickly (for about 15 hours). Before it was working for at least 4 days.

I've also tried with other 3 R4 flash versions (AA1,BE1,BE3) but with the same result. I've changed the battery but again it has the same result. So the problem is in the phone.

Do you think this is some kind of hardware problem or it is from the flashing ???

it is clear that is a software problem - if u said this occured only after flashing.
try enableing the battery menu with zulea 5.3
and try recalibrate it:D

Thanks, i've now enabled the BATTERY menu as well as Channel Info menu.

The information it gives me from MENU 1 is:

0 0 0 385
387 0 9
LI 59%
BT 25 PT 25
HANDHELD

So now my battery consumption is 9mA i guess? And when light is on it is 29mA. Is that number fine?

How can i calibrate it from here? There's only information. It seems to be correct. When the phone is in standby mode for an hour, everything's OK - 59% is 59% from the battery. But when i restart it - it drops below 50% after that one hour. That's the problem i have.

Any solutions? Somebody can help me?

I need my old flash version of the phone. Unfortunately i don't remember it's number. But it's the version where if you go to "Email messages" or "Groups" and select a message or group, there's a field called "CALL" and if you press it - phone freezes.

Please i need this version of flash - with freezing "CALL" option in "Email messages" and "Groups".

Please help - info@poceh.com
