Hello,


after unlocking but b4 flashing my T715a - it was working perfectly, except of course that branding is horrible - I HAD to be able to remove the Vodafone (Australia) "I'm Live" key, (could incur unwanted charges!)
I have the phone for use on the TIM network here in Brasil, so I used these with a2uploader:
T715_R1GA026_MAIN_GENERIC_AM_RED53
T715_R1GA026_FS_AMERICA_RED53
&
T715_1231-4509_R5A_Customized_Generic_LAM__b_


Now I have 2 irritating issues:
- Sometimes, but rarely, I have Network coverage, but mostly none or far weaker than usual.
- Does not recognise my SD card, (wants to reformat), and this is very irritating because both things worked perfectly (SD card read in full without reformatting), yes here with phone in other country, like I said - it was all good AFTER unlock but BEFORE unbranding/ flashing, in the same location with same sim cards, etc, etc.
Please, simple fixes like reinstalling, trying other firmwares, etc, have been tried, a lot.


This problem has occurred to others and there are some discussions online, that go nowhere. ONE suggestion was that the T715A needs different firmware than the T715, (different ranges in network?) - But not even Sony differentiates between the 2 for software, AND finally - Sony Updates all insist I have latest software.
Thanks for any help.
PS. latest firmware flash log:
