8850 - get signal, but can't make a call...

[GeeZuZz]

I have a 8850 in my hands right now. The phone seems to work OK - signal is the strongest. But whenever i make a call, it just stops after about 3 seconds after i press "call". No contact is made.

I thought IMEI changing would fix this, but no. I even tried to flash it with a virgin eeprom, and new mcu+ppm, but it still don't want to call.

I tested to check call forwarding status, and that worked fine, it reported that it was not activated - indicating that the antenna or signal should not be the problem.

I've tried many different SIM-cards.

Have someone got a clue?

Try with an other Eeprom. I will send you an Eeprom of my 8850. It doenst have any problems.

The flash is not the problem. The phone acted like that BEFORE it was flashed.

Is the antenna broken? if it's broken, why does it get signal?

@Gezzuz

I had the same problem on a 6210...Than i have flashed an Eeprom from an another 6210 that works...After than it was ok...

I dont think that the problem is from the Antenna. Maybe an another hardware.... Whats about the Eeprom that i Attached?
