Ok, I got this 8850 and it displays contact service! So I looked around on the net and found some info! However, as I have no experience in it I thought I would get something that would be easy to use! So I bought this dct3/4 clip! I got it and flashed the phone but to my misery it still displays contact service. And in the manual it specifically says that it will fix contact service problems! What is the matter with the phone?
Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Contact service can be two problems! Software (Your clip) or Hardware! Hardware is normally when you turn your phone on and it displays "Contact Service" instantly! Use my contact service guide in the Forum FAQ!;)

Ok i have read the FAQ but i dont understand what i have to do! I have already flashed the phone! should i buy a mbus cable and use "Eeprom Tools" to test it?
What do i then do if it comes up that i have no hardware problems?

Thanks for any help
