View Full Version : Cingular T616


08-18-2003, 09:08 PM
I have a Cingular branded T616 with firmware R1A that I want to upgrade/unlock. As of the last time I checked, R1B is the latest.

But I see no AVR files for the T616 here, just the R1L firmware for the T610.

1) Will the R1L firmware work on the T616?
2) If not, do you have the T616 firmware?

Thanks!

Hi,

1) Not sure, I would imagine they would not be compatible though! :(

2) I'll check tomorrow and see if I can get the files, files for US specific phones can be a pain to get hold of though.

Cheers, Paul K

I just went to my local GSM dealer and he updated my firmware to R1S001

Apparently this firmware was for the T610 on T-Mobile. I had the Vodafone customizations and I wanted the factory menus.

The dealer told me that he has T-Mobile's firmware with all the customizations removed. So, I am sure that you can get the R1L013 firmware to work on Cingular's T616

Personally I think the R1S001 is identical to R1L013. Here is the SW Information from my phone

R1S001 prgCXC12-5600_US_3
R1S001 prgCXC12-5586_TAE_US_3

LCD SW Versions
Test: 782074
Current: 200302240

Camera SW Versions
Test: 0
Current: 200304224

Customizations MS
CDA102222/8 R8A

Customizations TAE
CDA102222/8 R8A

Can someone tell me if the Camera software in R1L013 matches the one listed above?

My only complaint is that I was stuck with US English and Spanish was the only other language in the menu.

Hi Paul_K!
R1S001 is newer than R1L013?
Do you remember upload R1A052 ARM?
Thanks!

I can confirm you that the Camera Software in release R1L013 is the same as in yours.
