Root flashing sbf resulting in critical error no matter which one

cinandro · Jan 6, 2011

When ever I try installing and sbf. First I tried Telus, then Brazil, then the thai version and anytime I try flashing sbfs from this site (sbf:milestone [And Developers]) I get this:
critical error:
1337
510B

Does anyone know how to fix that?

What an error message! Haven't seen that before..

Is the phone fully charged, all correct software installed on your machine ect?

cinandro · Jan 6, 2011

Yes it is fully charged and when I try to flash a855 firmware from the a855 sbf page it works perfect. However I am on MTS in canada and apparently I need telus. And that doesn't work for me. I get the error every time. The phone I have is a motorola milestone a854. Tried pretty much every sbf with wcdm 850 / 1900 / 2100.

I can flash the MILER_X1_00.26.0 but apparently it's for the wrong region. That's what my phone is running on now and I have been out of data for a month now. 3G and everything gone. All I can do is phone and text.

Thanks a lot for responding btw.

Frequency: Dual Band 800/1900 MHz CDMA

First of all these frequencies do not match the Canadian Milestone.

I believe the A854 does not have a locked bootloader and you should be able to flash any Motorola Droid roms.

Did you not have data while on the A855 SBF?

cinandro · Jan 7, 2011

No I didn't. Otherwise I would have gladly left it on there. But no data because MTS doesn't support a855. I can't believe how hard it is to find the sbf with the proper dual band.

Thanks

What do you mean doesn't support a855?

Did you set you APN after flashing the A855 sbf?

cinandro · Jan 7, 2011

No I didn't. Can you please explain more about what it is and how to go about it?

TwinDragons · Jan 7, 2011

I tried google searching for the APN settings for MTS but it's pretty hard to find. I would suggest calling MTS when you can and they will help you set it up. I actually think I'm wrong about APN since you're using a CDMA phone, but you need something from MTS for data access.

I know I need something from MTS. Problem is MTS doesn't know what. All I know is the firmware and baseband are different then other phones on my contract on mts. I sure wish someone would get me a different sbf. Is there any way I can make a sbf from a different phone?

MTS has the niof and will give it to you as long as you know what you want.

Talk to them and tell them you need:

APN name for Internet
Username
Password

These three things will be enough to get your phone on the Internet.

Settings> Wireless and networks> Mobile networks> APN names>Menu>Add APN>Enter data>Meu>Save

There is no APN Names in my wireless networks. I know it says roaming, networks, and APNs. But when I click that option all I get is roaming and system select, no APNs option.
Thanks a million for replying and trying to help though everybody. Greatly appreciated.

There is another thread with the same thing:

Post in that one as you both have the same phone version and the same problems.
