Hi guys,

I'm having an embarassing moment when I tried to sell my A1200 to my friend. I'm using T-Mobile on A1200 and never have any problem. (well except MMS never worked) I also enable EDGE on this phone.

the problem is when I'm about to sell the phone to my friend, who is using Cingular (with Cingular SIM) when I insert her SIM and turn the phone on..... The phone got pass the Hello Moto screen and the on-off screen after that the phone turn off and restarting itself..... and repeat the cycle. (O_o")

btw, before all this I Master reset the phone.... don't know if this effect anything?

any suggession guys?

Hahaha well I DID it!!!!! (for the first time)

I flash with Bint Generic_08P and it works like a charm!!!!

Thanks for the encourage and Alpha for the great article How to!!!!

Now I'm trying to put the Cingular SIM in to see if it works or not...

The rebooting is caused by the Seem enabled EDGE.

well after flashing to the new firmware, it works and I don't see any problem at all. No more restarting. I even can access to Cingular MEdia Net by the web browser.

Pondo, you said it caused restating itself when you enable EDGE?

well there's my next questions....... do I have to enable EDGE again after flashing? and is it gonna cause the same problem again after enable EDGE?

Thanks guys

PS. I still can't recieve MMS!!! Dang it!!!!!

if you seem enabled EDGE and and flashed your phone you need to seem edit it again, unless you flashed your phone with a EDGE enabled flash, like 29P

If you enable edge again just dont do a master reset again....
