    Att Firmware - need to go back to it (help plz)

    PHONE: w580i

    I havnt had my phone over week and before debranding i noticed a problem at times it stops thinking the memory card is in it.. its a pain in the ass and im gonna have to exchange it via the mail.. I dont think i got much to worry about because they send u the new one first then u mail back the old phone.. but just incase they want to be pricks.. id like to put the att firmware back on the phone.. not knowing much about debranding i just did wonton.. after reading up and knowing what the cid numbers mean for the firmware (thats the part that made me turn to wonton) i think i can do it on my own now..

    Im sure someone has the att firmware... i have searched high and low but i cant find it anywhere at all.. anyhelp here would be sweet. if someone has the attfirmware id be greatfull or if they know where i can get it at.

    my phone is cid52


    just as a side note:
    has anyone had any experience with returning a debranded phone to att during the first 30 days?

    Yes you download the att main and fs from your phone and then flash it. But what phone do you want to brand?

    i tried it said already have the latest version.. i saw where someone said u could update it to an older version but i had no option for that... it just went back to the begining
    the seus program dont seem to have alot of options.
    maybe u can help

    i did the update via the program i downloaded from the website not the update on the firmware on the phone.. (dont have data plan)

    the firmware i went to was the generic america trade r8 on the wonton site
    my phone is cid52

    maybe if i put an older firmware on phone it will update i dunno.. for now its just telling me that its latest version has only one option "click to go back to start"

    Yeah. I'm thinking about the back up, too. You keep the back up, don't you? If you don't, you will be in big trouble. AT&T mail you the phone first, but they charge you in the bill like you buy a new phone. When you have send your phone back, they put the credit in the bill balance. If you debrand it, I don't think they would accept it, and you won't have the money back from them.
