Hi, Willy.
If i understand correct, error is caused by hardware..
Problem is most 3310 have this..
Will check on a few new 3310.

thanks

greetings.

i'm using the cracked version of wintesla.

i have been following your postings regarding signal repair and the one you gave pertaining to RSSI readings using cracked wintesla really rocks.

regarding my prob, i have a 3310 with no signal. replaced, hagar, vco, C508, and antenna switch. also tried replacing RX filters but still i get no RX/TX (using netmon). regardless of which part i replace, i still get RSSI readings between -117 to -118db.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

@aZyWeRks

u need rf generator to read rssi properly from fone..... if u hav no input signal to fone, then rssi reading will be out..... all rssi would reflect is input signal or close to that!
to really know wut is happening with the rf in that 3310 pcb, u need rf generator to isolate rx & tx & check to c which is malfunctioning...... it is possible that pa is also faulty but again, u just shooting blind without proper equip......

@willy

thanx for ur help rgds with wavtek...... i am still looking for 4107, need jigs also but ur price bit too much for me

Thanks for information.

I tested lot off phones, 3310 8210 etc..
But if i have to change all the Cobbas from the phones that i cannot read, ...i think ill think dont live that long....

If someone could , when he has time, explain to me what i truly need to make a good diagnose off phone error, i would be gratefull.

But i dont mean to buy the newest expensive equipment.
I have money but to spend thousends off dollars i dont think
i can earn it back.
It suppose to make my life somewhat easier....

regards
