Default SX56 - in South Africa

Hello All :P
Just a quick question to see if anyone had got the SX56 to work in South Africa. Currently running on 3.17.03ENG but alas no Phone signal as yet after some hair raising experiences with Flash ROM

Your help would be much appreciated

You need to change the band to 900MHz. The SX56 automatically defaults to 1900.

Phone Options More

I had exactly the same problem in SA. I found that sometimes, getting to the more options is a problem. If you have this issue, you can get to the GSM bootloader (by pressing the power swtch while soft-resetting and then pressing the task hardware button) and change it to 900/1800.
This should work fine.

Thanks guys for the advice
But alas no joy with reseting to GSM and a Cold reset it STILL says NO service when I look at the connectivity bar and not able to find a network when searching for it either

I guess it's cause I upgraded to the wrong Radio Stack (4.21.00) version last week. Which was a bit silly on my part. I guess that there is no turning back to another Radio Stack?

Pity I was really forward to using the GPRS - in RSA
