Lost BIS using Chimera


Hi guys,

I was hoping someone can shed some light on my problem. A few months ago I used Chimera tool to reset life timer in 30 pieces of 9900 and one Porsche P9981. After I reset life timer using this tool I noticed when I sell phone no BIS is working. I test all 30 pieces and Porsche and all have no working BIS now.

I can get 3G and browse internet but cannot enter BlackBerry ID nor can you setup email or BBM. I ask Chimera team but they say their tool did not kill BIS but all these 30 pieces worked BIS before and now not working after reset life timer. They do not want to take responsibility. Maybe today problem is fixed but a few months ago when they first release software, I think they had bug in software that kill BIS as I have done nothing else to the phones except reset life timer.

Now I don't know what to do with these phones. Can someone please help me try and repair what I think is now damaged EFS or NV.

Thanks in advanced,

Thanks for your input and tried your suggestion and rewrote IMEI and debrand but nothing. Then I do second time but used repair EFS options and now phone has white screen of death with APP ERROR 200. I have tried countless times to repair this new problem now this once expensive Porsche phone is now a fancy door stop. I swear Chimera tool has cost me a lot of money.

Donate money to this user
So all these phones sold is going on an active BIS?

Have you tried ..

Quote:
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot

Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
