    Unhappy 8210 (Flashed to 8250) Signal/Reception Problems

    Hi this is my situation:

    Before I flashed my 8210 whenever I turned on my phone I would get reception immediately after turning it on. Cell info would display the station within my local area. I was also able to get 1-2 bars of signal in a particularly shielded building.

    After flashing my phone the 8250 whenever I turn my phone on it will usually take 1-2 mins (or longer) for me to get a signal. Also it will initally get 1 bar and Cell info would display a station way out of my location (30-50km+) before switching to my local station with 4 bars of signal. In the same building where I could get a weak signal I now can no longer get any signal at all.


    Is this problem due to a bad FAID update? Has anyone else found that they have this problem too? What other cause could this problem be due to? (I haven't dropped my phone since the flash)

    Which version of firmware you using?

    I've try few version.

    5.02 - mostly ok
    5.04 - a bit slow to get signal
    5.06- very fast and stable.
