Kyocera 7135 - The Complete Guide...

[Kyocera 7135 - The Complete Guide...]

After de/resoldering the chipset, phone cannot start. It always off. At phone info screen>software, phone software "No Info", prl "No Info".

I tried to enter service mode interface by push light key and click faxmode icon. The screen changed into service mode interface, but nothing appeared at PST server. What am I suppose to do to update the firmware?

Please give me the clue. Thank you.

We had a Kyocera User Group meet at CCD (Cafe Coffee Day ), Sion. It was a meet that was just decided on Friday, over private phone conversations ... and planned in a Day . The post came on rimweb pretty late...

I know that this time the notice was VERY short.. but still we had a good turn up

but the only thing that bothered me was the people who promised they would be there (on phone calls / SMS ).. but did not turn up!

well .. .getting back to the topic in hand...

The reason, I called up for a meet was because a lot of Kyocera Users could not figure out the best way to use this handset - and some of the repairs could be done on the handset without much effort - I can certify this since I recovered my handset from a regular crash(once in 2 mins) and then finally an SRCP [The most dreaded infliction of the Kyocera - that in itself is considered the end of any sane Kyo users - kyo life ]

My handset was showing me the dreaded message sometime 2 weeks back - since I was already in the Kadki stage of my life (kangaal for the uninitiated) a repair was definetly out of bounds...

I just opened up the Kyo - knowing fully well that I had nothing to loose... gave a hot alco bath, heated the board, de/re-soldered the phone chipset (and to be honest - shorted a chip ), but once everything was put back in place. ... .... The PHONE WAS PERFECT!!!

since I was quite confident now .. I decided to call for the meet...

and the people who turned up will certify for the same ...

I will try to make this thread a complete encyclopedia for Kyocera users ... yeah might have a PDF version soon

The innards of the Kyocera 7135
