Hi! As you have noticed the BROD bug or blue ring of death that the K850 is getting is the most dangerous and irritant bug,my K850 is in a SE repair center but they still have difficulties on flashing it,they are saying it's stopping in the middle of the process(formating or installing the FW I don't know),some people here whoever said that they could ''repair'' their k850's BROD with Davinci or other thir party softwares.
This topic is here for helping people like me who need real alternatives for giving a second life for our K850 after a BROD,so for all the guys who have succefully recovered their K850 after a BROD PLEASE SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE,what's the tool you used,how hard it was to do it,and how much it cost...
For those who could not recover their k850 after passing by a SE center or even using Davinci or other flashing soft,also share your stories because it would show that SE SHOULD replace any K850 that died because of BROD for free and even if their are no warranty

I've had 2 BROD's, both fixed by DaVinci. First one was after upgrading to 031 using SEUS, 2nd one was after DaVinci fixed the 1st BROD by putting 031 back on the phone. The next time I went to DaVinci to recover, I put 037 because I've had enough rebooting and crashing. Going 2 weeks strong now, MAYBE 1 reboot during that period. I might not have the snazzy vibrate when touching the soft buttons, but I do have a functioning phone

It's weird that Davinci flashing works well with the BROD bug and not the SE center flashing methods!!!
so I need to pay 10$ for this recovery solution?

I used KulanKendi to revive my BROD-affected K850i. It worked like a charm. www.kulankendi.com .

Can you downgrade to 037 with kukadi?
What's the process? how to install a ''clean'' FW means deleting completly the buggy MAIN and FS?

THE TWO SE CENTERS I VISITED CLAIMED THAT THEY CAN'T REPAIR IT BECAUSE THE FLASHING IS STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PROCESS!!! what should I do? Davinci and the other softs can work where SE failed?

Sure you can downgrade to R1CA037 with KulaNKendi. Just run the Client with your login and read the instructions. Good luck.

BTW, I have no idea why SE Service Centre can't flash the phone.

I found DaVinci very easy to work with, but the price is a bit high, mostly because the weak $$$ I suppose I've now made friends with an SETool owner who has already fixed my K790i which was killed by Wotan server trying to put retail EROM on prototype phone and he can pretty much fix/reflash/repair the K850 pretty easily.

Davinci is taking 50 credits for a k850 flash right? means 90$!!!
If my phone is not repaired by the ''unbrander'' guy(he wouldn't tell me which system he will use) I will try kukendi for 8 euros(14$)

The MAIN or FS or both?
