When I woke up this mornin, I TRIED turning my fone on but all I got was a message with something about no software and and a circle with the line through it with 507 nxt to it? I called Telus and they said try reloading the OS back on!!!! Well i did need to update it since they shipped it to me with an out of date OS on it to begin with....FACK.....Ive only had this phone a week now anyhow!!!! I hope this isnt a sign of things to come!!!!

Never heard of this happening before to anyone.

T-Mobile is a CDMA carrier... Any OS built for the 9700 will work on ANY 9700, just need to remove the Vendor.xml file and run the Loader.exe.

T-mobile is a GSM carrier, but the rest of your post is on point.

wait, so it just randomly wiped the OS? is there anything at all you did the night before that might have caused it?

[STYLN]

Yep jus randomly wiped the OS!!!! And I didnt do anything the nite b4 - jus plugged it in to charge when i wnt to bed (was working fine) and then BAM no OS in the am 2day!!!

t-mo a cdma carrier??? now i heard it all lol... styln i've heard this happening but i've never seen it, hella random

[STYLN]

Yea its pretty fuk'd if ya ask me....hopefully I can get it workin 2nite with the new OS...altho the one on Telus's website if .544 - hopefully it'll work!

[fatboy97]

Sorry, I had my wires crossed... T-Mobile is a GSM carrier... Verizon and Spring are the only CDMA carrier's (or at least the largest) in the US.

[STYLN]

No worries....I tried loading the new OS last nite with no luck....Desktop mgr wouldnt even read the fone...like it wasnt there!!!! Wouldnt pick up the pin# So now Telus is sending me another one....they say they"ll have it preloaded with the new OS - we'll see!!!

Whats a fone?

[Roscopcoletrain]

Yes, Ive read of it happening. Just a bug or whatever, caused a OS error. Reload OS and continue on your way. And try to keep backups current

There is a trick to reloading the OS. Search the blogs, it was posted here. You have to take out the battery. its pretty simple though to do.
