C261 Restarts Continously - GSM-Forum

dannyogolo · 11-13-2006, 14:55

I have received in recent days many of these phones, all with same error: They keep restarting on Power ON.
I have searched the forum, but the only solutions I saw were all for sp-locked phones that were damaged trying to unlock; But I dont think these are the same, bcos they have been in use before the restarting.

@Infinity Team, what is solution to this pls ?

this is the tutorial from infinity support:

How to to repair C257, C261, V175, V176, V177 "restart problem”.

1. Make “Unlock” (exactly like described in unlock instruction)

if software unlock phone withouto problem: phone repaired and unlocked.

if software can't unlock phone go to step 2.

2. Check log file/window after unlock process and find text like this:

"sp-locked: 46000.46002". This means that phone locked to 460-00 and

460-02 network and it's need to write special Flex file (in this example

correct repair Flex file is: C261_Flex_90_64_3009_Locked_460-00_460-02)

into phone.

After writing special Flex file: phone repaired but still locked

(and currently we have no methods to unlock it).

If you can't find required special Flex file in support area: find

original phone locked to the same network, read flash from it, send

it to [email protected] and we will prepare special Flex file

to repair your phone.

Just want to add that it's good idea to check important "sticky" threads in this forum to see latest news f.e. here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=345599
