4. SIM card security

1 SIM card introduction
SIM is the abbreviate of Subscriber Identity Model . SIM card is always called smart card or user identity. Digital mobile phone could not be used without this card. SIM card has 3 materials inside: surface metal circuit board, I C, hard black protect glue. The surface metal ci rcuit board takes charge of information communication between IC and mobile phone. The hard black protect hard glue is only for IC protection for this IC the core of SIM card. It stores the customer record of digital mobile phone, encryption key, which could be used in, distinguish of customer identity and do speech encryption during the call. The metal circuit board has 6 blocks each response for mobile phone input record, speech, operator command. The use of SIM card prevents the call merging and wiretapping, and SIM card is produced according to the GSM international standard and regulations. It gi ves a reliable protection on customer’s normal communications. The use of SIM card also makes the card and mobile phone separated, one SIM card identify one customer. Any one SIM card could be inserted and

used in any GSM mobile phone and the fees caused by this phone would recorded on the bill of the only customer which this SIM card correspondi ng t o. S IM card contains the al l t he pers ona l data when request GSM service, including:
International Mobi le Equipment Identity
Temporary customer identification
Main system
Registration
PIN and unlock code
Call limit code
Personal data stored by customer, such as messages, certain telephone number,
function setting, fees record and so on

2Security functions

Customer could use security functions in mobil e phone to lock his SI M card to prevent other
person use this SIM card. The PIN number is request when unlock it. Personal ident ity number has 4 digits and is set by customer. This pin is for SIM card and used t o protec t t he SIM card and the initial status is non-active. If this function is activ e, GSM and mobile phone would do automatic identification when phone power on. This identification would judge the validity of SIM card. System would provide ser vice only when this card is valid. Ther e are 3 opportuniti es to enter the PIN. If wrong PIN number for 3 times, SIM card woul d bloc k i ts elf and onl y unbl ock ed wh en enter correct PUK number. PUK(PIN Unblocking Key)is used to unblock the PIN number and each SIM card has its own PUK number which has 8 digits . It could be manag ed by customers themselves or network operator. At present, most of mobile phone office offers P UK checking and c ustomers could manage PUK themselves. Customer would have 10 opportunities to enter the PUK number. If wrong PUK is entered for 10 times, SIM card would start the self -ruin program to make itself invalid. At this situation, customer need apply a new S IM card. It’s highly recommend that do not try to unblock SIM card when do not have correct PUK.

Another security action is setting call limit. Call limit means that user could set pin, limit
incoming call and out coming call. Users could set and unset the call limit to avoid receiving unknown call or being used by other person, especially for the international call. 4 digi ts pin is needed to set this call limit. The initial pin is 0000. User should modify this pin when open call limit service to improve security. Call limit could be set by mobile phone’s menu or by encoding method. These two setting is similar. What should pay attention is call limit service only provide to the user who has opened the international call, and this service could not be used with call transfer service.
5. GSM system introduction
5.1 GSM history and development
The earliest mobile phone service comes from St.Louis. After more than 30 years research
and development, especially with the rapid development of semiconductor , mobile communication service has achieved a huge development in both technology and scope. The analog mobile communication system which is characterized wit h AMPS, NMT, TACS established. In early 90s, coming with the increase of mobile communication users, the requirement of multi-region, multi-national service and other increment service also increased. At the same time, technology of digital communications has grown up. European m obile phone oper ator began to c onsider a new digital mobile communication system. GSM m obile communication system has come out. GSM system is designed for a mobile communication stand for whole European. It’s the first digital communication system and could support roaming in European. GSM is the most successful commercial mobile communication system and adopted by many countries in the world.
During the development of GSM system, several communication systems come out. The
earliest GSM system is called PGSM and the EGSM system is established by extending the frequency band. DCSDigital Communication Systemis established by changing the working frequency band. The GSM system in North America which is called PCS Personal Communication Systemalso c hanges its work ing frequency band. All the GS M system mobil e communication system only has some difference on wo rking frequency and output power, while

the RF modulation method is the same.
5.2 GSM system configuration
The composition of mobile communication system is similar and always made up of following
main parts.
1 NSSNetwork Sub System
Network Sub System is made up of MSC (mobile switching center), operation maintain center
and HLR (home location register), VLR (visitor location register), certification centre and
equipment symbol register. MSC is the core of cell communication network. It is responsible
for the data transitions and exchange of the whole mobile communication s ystem, network
management and connection with other communication systems. MSC also identifies the
user’s identity, updates the user location and router the communication path. Many other
functions provided by system should be done by MS C.
2 BSSBase Station System
BBS is responsible for connection between MSC and MS. BS should has the fixed wire or wireless connection mode with MSC and the wireless connection mode with MS. Each BBS would cover a cell region, and phones inside this region could make communications with this BBS. BBS would control and manage the communication status of thes e mobile phone, including frequ ency, power, time sequence. If the mobile phone is moved to another region, it would switch the region under the control of BBS.
3 MSMobile Station
MS confronts with the user’s terminal equipm ent, i.e. handset or car kit. The MS is physical
equipment and should contain SIM card. Both SIM and hardware equipment make up MS.
Without SIM card, MS could not access GSM network (exc ept emergency service)
5.3 GSM air interface
In GSM mobile communication system, the transmission between MS and BS is RF
communication. Here is a brief introducti on about air RF interface of GSM system
1 Frequency distribution
The uplink frequency band of PGSM system is 890MHz~915MHz and the downlink is
935MHZ~960MHz. The full duplex i nternal is 45MHz.
Department HW Version V1.0 Document type Service manual

TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Ltd. Confidential level High
EGSM system is 10MHz down expending comparing with work ing frequency band of PGSM
system, the uplink frequency band is 880MHz~915MHz, the downlink frequency band is
925MHz~960MHz, the full duplex interval is 45M Hz.
The uplink frequency band of DCS sys tem is 1710~1785MHz, the downli nk frequency band
is 1805~1880MHz, the full duplex interval is 95MHz.
The uplink frequency band of PCS system is 1850~1910MHz, the downlink frequency band
is 1930~1990MHz, the full duplex interval is 85MHz.
2 Multiple access
GSM system uses the FDMA/TDMA solution. It divides the channel with the equal frequency
interval according to FDMA and each channel would be has 8-time slot according to TDMA.
3 Physical channel
We make division in uplink and downlink frequency band for pairs and mark with number.
Such frequency band is physical channel. The corresponding number is ARFCN
Absoluteness RF Channel Number,One ARFCN corresponds to one pair unlink and
downlink channel and they are called physical c hannel in GSM system.
In the all of GSM system, the channel interval is 200 KHz.
The ARFCN in PGSM system is 1~124, the uplink cent ral frequency of CH1 is 890.2MHZ.
The central frequency of ARFCN n is fn=f1+(n-1)*200kHz. The central frequency of
corresponding downlink channel is 45M Hz.
EGSM system also include the 1~124 channel in PGSM. The CH1 frequency band has down
extended 10MHz and ARFCN is 975~1023. There is als o CH0. The uplink channel central
frequency of CH975 is 880.2MHz. The uplink channel central frequency of CH0 is 890MHz.
ARFCN of DCS system is 512~885, the uplink central frequency of CH512 is 1710.2MHz.
ARFCN of PCS system is 512~810, the uplink cent ral frequency of CH512 is 1850.2MHz.
Most of ARFCN in DCS and PCS is overlapped. I t’s because PCS system only used in North
America for no DSC system in this region whi ch means DCS and PCS w ould not e xist is the
same region. That’s why ARFCN could be reused.

4 Modulation

The modulation of GSM mobile phone is 0.3GMSK---Gauss Minimum Frequency Shift

TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Ltd. Confidential level High
Modulation. This modulation could reduce the width of radiate frequency spectrum, and
reduce interfering to the neighbor channel.
5 TDMA Burst
GSM system is TDMA communication system, 8 users reuse 1 channel in different time slot.
For certain user, the sending signal is a pulse. TDMA burst means the entire frequency
spectrum emitted by mobile phone in one burst time slot. It carries the information, which
should be transmitted in this burst. GSM has a strict regulation about the frequency spectrum
width and amplitude of the burst in every time slot. A lot of testing of mobile phone radiate
signal is about burst.
6 Duplex sequence
GSM system has a regulation about the receiving and sending sequence. Mobile phone
would send signals in the third time slot after recei ved a signal. Actual ly, mobile phone would
adjust the receiving frequency to the BCCH of neighbor region to monit or its field strength
during the interval of sending and recei ving time s lot. All t he mobile phone should f ollow t his
way and it should have only one working status i.e. sending, receiving, listening, wait ing at
the same time.
7 Power control
There could be many mobile phone users in one region. If many users communic ate with B S
at the same time, and if the sending power i s the same, the user who are close to BS would
cause block effect to the users who are far to the BS; meanwhile, the users who are close to
BS would have more battery consuming when uses a high sending power. For these reasons,
BS should be able to adjust the sending power of mobil e phone and m obil e phone s houl d b e
able to adjust sending power itself.
GSM request mobile phone should be able to adjust its sending power in step of 2dBm.
PGSM request the mobile phone sending power should has level 1~15, level 1~5 have equal
power which is 33dBm, the level 6~15 would descend in every 2dBm. EGSM has level 15~19.
DCS and PCS system have 16 power levels 0~16, the maximum power level 0 has power
30dBm, and the power would descend in every 2dBm.
8 Time sequence control

TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Ltd. Confidential level High
The di stance from mobile phone user to BS is various and the time when signals arrived at
BS is different. It would have overlap when the pulse arrived BS if using the same time
sequence. To avoid this situation, it’s necessary to adjust the sending sequence of mobile
phone and make the mobile phones which have long distance to BS send in advance . This
control should be done by BS to make the arriving sequence of pulse would not have overlap.
5.4 Subscriber Identify The GSM will allow us ers to access the net unl ess their legal stat us is checked. The net wil l use the status which is registered in the SIM card for identifying the users’ validity. The important digital identifiers of GSM involve:
1) IMSI (International Mobile Subscri ber Identific ation). Thi s code is the one and onl y code which refers to the user ’s status. The system needs it to check the inform ation of users durin g they are logging in. It consists of three parts: MCC (Mobile Country Code) refers to the code of the country where the user uses the net, it has three numbers.
MNC (Mobile Network Code) refers to the code of the company which the net belonging to, i t has two numbers.
MSIN (Mobile Subscriber Identification Number) r efers to the code of the user who is using the GSM, it has eleven numbers.
2) TMSI (Temporar y Mobile Subscriber Identification). It is safer to replace IMSI as TMSI during transfer information. The TMSI is valid onl y in nativ e cell, whi ch has less than four byt es, and the structure of it depended on the administer department.
3) IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Ident ity). This code is the one and only code too. The system can use it to check the loyalty of the equipment.
5.5 voice coding and transmission The analog signals will be converted into di gital signals for transmit ting in the GSM s ystem. If we send all of the voice signals, there would need l ots of bandwi dth. Therefore i t is nec essary to use some coding arithmetic to compress the data. The voice signals must undergo some pro cession before being transmitting.
1. Voice coding (Here we mainly talk about the transmission, the reception is reverse.)
1) Collectingsampling and coding: T he anal og si gnal s wi ll be c onverte d int o digi tal s ign al s af ter digital sampling, then they need to be coding i nto PCM digital signals.
2) Data compress coding: 20ms will be seemed as a ti me unit for digital voic e signals, every unit contain 456 bits. RELP/LTP coder will dill with each unit and change it into 260 bits. The code velocity is 13 kbps, called full velocity coding.

TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Ltd. Confidential level High
3) Error corrective coding: The 260 bits data of the unit wi ll be divided i nto t wo port ions acc ording to their importance. One refers to type I that contains 182 bits, the other refers to type II that contains 78 bits. Otherwise the type I can be divided into another two port ions, type Ia contains 50bits that are most important, the others refer to type Ib. 182 bits of Type I is protected by convolution error corrective code, and type Ia i s protected by CRC code. T he type II is not being protected. So 182 bits of type I turn to be 378 bits after error corrective coded, and with the 78 bits of type II, there will be 456 bits in a time unit.
2. Transmission (After changed into digital signals, the voice signals will be transmitted in each time slot.)
1) Time slot: In GSM system each user is allowed to transmit signals in the respective time slot, during each time slot user can send 156.25bits dat a, cost 576.92µs.
2) Frame: eight time slots compose one frame, cost 4.615ms.
3) Multi-frame: twenty-six frames compose one multi-frame, cost 120ms.
4) Super-frame: fifty-one multi-frames compose one super-frame, cost 6.12s.
5) Bit interlacement and transmission: 456bits in 20ms will be divided into eight bloc ks. Between the synchronous byte each burst will send two blocks data. Actually the two block data which are sent by each burst come from different time unit. 2736 bits data come from six time uni ts are sent interlaced, they are placed in twenty frames, compose twenty-four burst. The circle of one multi-frame is 120ms too. It consists of twenty-six frames. There will be two frames left after sending twenty-four frames voice data. One is used for SACCH and the other is reserved.
5.6 Logical channels In GSM system all of data are sent by burst. The burst not only sends voice data, but also sends many data which is used for control. We can define these bursts as several logical channels according to their functions. TCH (Traffic Channel): This channel is with responsibility for sending voice data.
SACCH (Slow Associated Control Channel): Twenty-four frames in one multi-frames is used for TCH and one frame is used for SACCH. The down channel of the SACCH takes charge of sending control data to the handset such as power level control signal, timing diagram control signal, and configure information of ev ery cell suc h as base st ation address l ist, channel address list. The uplink channel of the SACCH takes charge of reporting some data to system from each handset, such as RX Level report, RX Quality report, electromagnetism power report of adjacent cells and state of the handset. The circle of SACCH is so long that it is only used for transmitting some control data which is needed low speed.
FACCH (Fast Associate Control Channel): When the handset is passing to another cell, the system has to exchange some important control information with the handset, such as the numbers of the new channel and the time slot . The SACCH is not enough to finish it, the system should turn the TCH into the burst which is used for sending control data, that will be called FACCH. To do this, the transmission will be finished f ast but the call is likely to be interrupted because the TCH is occupied.

BCH (Broadcast Channel): BCH is seemed as broadcast, merely using to transfer data. Identifying the net like a beacon, each cell has only one BCH. It also broadc ast some public and special control information. According to its function it can be divided into many channels in details.
FCH (Frequency Correction Channel): FCH consists of one special sequence, m aking sure that the handset can synchronize its frequency with the base station.
SCH (Synchronization Channel): After s ynchronizing with the FCH, the handset makes use of the SCH to adjust its timing diagram in order to synchroni ze with the multi-frame of the net.
BCCH (Broadcast Control Channel): This channel is used for identifying the net, sending the identifiable information and usable channel information in cells.
CCCHCommon Control ChannelThis channel is used for sending some public control signals.
PCH (Paging Channel ): PCH is one sub-channel of the CCCH. The sys tem uses it for searchi ng handset. When the handset finds itself in the PCH, it will return a RACH signal for requiring service.
AGCH (Access Grant Channel): AGCH is another sub-channel of the CCCH. It sends access permission signals to the handset and indicat es handset to access appointed SDCCH or TCH.
RACH (Random Access Channel): For sending access request signals, this channel use the opposite uplink channel of the BCH. All of handsets use the RACH for sending call request in one cell. Because the request is random, the collision among them will pos sibly occur. To deal with it, the Burst of AGCH should shorter than the others.
SDCCH (Stand-alone Dedicated Control Channel): Sometime as one logic channel of BCH, the channel will have independent physical channel SACCH and FACCH. The Burst of SACCH is short and its repetition is lower than the TCH, one physical channel can contain more than eight SDCCH. The mainly function of SDCCH is transition. From the handset sends the request of RACH to start to talk, there will be a long time for ringing and waiting, some control information will be exchanged in SACCH between the handset and the bas e station.
5.7 Calling establishing procedure
1. Register on the net When the handset begins to work, it will be searching signals on each downlink channel, and arraying the signals according to their power degree to find the BCH. Once got a BCH, the handset will adjust the frequency and timing diagram according as the FCH a nd SCH to this BCH. Then the handset compares the information (MCC and MNC) which is recorded in the SIM card to the BCCH. The handset will repeat it till find and lock a BCH that is the best channel in native net. After that the handset reports its state and positi on to the base stat ion, sends RACH requ est and receives the AGCH. At last the handset and the base stat ion begin to communicate with each

TechFaith Wireless Communication Technology Ltd. Confidential level High
other, exchange the control data, and then the register has been finished. At this moment the handset can do its job. Moreover if there is not a SIM card, t he handset can also find and lock the BCH, but it can’t register onto the net and update the position information.
2. Calling from handset When t he user type a serial number and press the button “OK” or “Send”, the handset send the RACH pulse to the base station right now. The base station use the AGCH which is the sub-channel of the CCCH for answering the request f rom the handset. After receiving the AGCH, the handset will follow the instruction, usi ng the time slot at right ARFCN to communicate with the base station on the SDCCH. First the handset receive the SACCH on the SDCCH to get the control signals for adjusting timing dia gram and power, because the base station has calculated the right adjusted time according as the RACH pulse yet. Then the handset can send right width pulses to the base station. The communicat ions on the SDCCH finish the call and identification. One or two seconds after, the handset will be on the TCH from the SDCCH and begin to communicate the voice data.
3. Calling from base station First the base station will send a message on the PCH which is the sub-channel of CCCH, including the code of the seeking handset. The handset will return a RACH signal after receive the PCH. Then the next process is same as the process calling from the handset.
5.8 GPRS introduction GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is one sort of communication that is developed from
making use of the conception called Packet-Switched. We seem GPRS as a improvement of the GSM because the GPRS is a new kind of packet data carrying service which base from the GSM. Packet-Switched refers to put the data into several independent packets, and then send them one by one. It seems like to mail packets in our daily life. The advantage of using Packet-Switched is that it will occupy the bandwidth only whe n there are some data to be sent and it can be charged by the quantity that is sent by the user. It is a reasonable mode for charging users. Using Packet-Switched it is less than one second for ac cessing, it can supply fast real-time connecting, it can improve the efficiency of services (checking credit card and long-distance control), and it can make the operation of the present interne t application (E-mail web scanning)to be more convenient and fluency.
The use of GPRS is widely, including offering E-mail for usersWWW scanningaccessing for
LAN and special data. Using WAP seems like access onto the net at home, first dialing and then accessing. Unfortunately if you access ont o the net, you can use it as a phone. But GPRS is more convenient, downlo ading files and mak ing a call can be proc ess at one tim e. As a respect in technology, sending voice (calling) is using GSM and sending files can use GPRS. Herein the application of the mobile phone can be upgrade onto a high floor. Another characteristic of GPRS is that the speed can be upgrade to 56 so as to 114Kbps. Moreover since it is not necessary to use the medi-switch which is present used in the wireless application, the connection and transmission will be more convenient and facility. So the user not only can be online, take part to the video-meeting but on the same net the user can keep being online without dialing. The development of the GPRS is low-cost, for that it will only need to add some node

(GPRS gateway supporting node and GPRS service supporting node) and Packet-Switched control cells.
Due to the technology and the advantage of GPRS, it is used widely in the present
communication field, and GPRS referred as the key point that used t o transit the technology of wireless communication from the second era to the third era will be developed to higher floor.
6. Circuit
6.1 Receiver circuit The downlink signals from base stat ion to handset access into the receiver ci rcuit. The receiver circuit contains several portions such as Antenna RF-Connector (CONN601)RF- transmit module (U602)、Filter (U603)、Transceiver (U601)CPU(U101). G4 adopt PIFA antenna, the antenna is fixed onto the backboard by a screw. The connection between the antenna and the mainboard will influence the signal power of the handset. So the antenna must be connected to the PAD of antenna PCB firmly. CONN601 is the test jack that is used for testing RF for the handset factory. There is a mechanical switch inside. When a test probe is inserted into the jack the switch will be cut, the signals get into or out of handset through the probe. When the probe is pul l up the switch close, the signals will pass the antenna again. The largest input impedance is 50 ohm, the largest input waste is 0.1dB from DC to 3GHz. U602 is a multi-bandwidth RF-Switch unit. It can work in GSM900 and DCS1800 . The nether figure is the structure of the RF-Switch circuit.

to control the state of U602 (pass or break). So the work state of the U602 is controlled by the U101 who select the wave band between EGSM and DCS. The nether diagram is the logic of the control.
When the handset is working, the signals which pass through the U602 will engender some attenuation, the value of the attenuation will be changed according to the temperature. In normal temperature (25) the value wi ll be ±1.5dB, in extreme temperature the value will be ±2.0dB. The RX signals which are selected by U4 will come into the band-pass filter U603. The GSM PATH center work frequency of U603 is 942.5MHz and valid bandwidth is 35MHz, in normal temperature, the value of input attenuation is 2.5dB and the extreme one is 2.9dB. The DCS PATH center work frequenc y of U603 is 1842.5MHz and valid bandwidth is 75MHz, in normal temperature, the value of input attenuation is 2.5dB and the extreme one is 2.9dB. The band-pass filter will filter the signals and change them i nto two balanceable and steady output signals, then send them to U601. U601 is a highly integrated multi low power transceiver. The nether figure is t he structure of it.

7. FAQ
The failure is divided into PCB and whole mobile phone.
7.1 phone malfunction repair:
The usual failure:
a、CIT station:can not power on、receiver can not work、MIC can not work、vibrator
can not workspeaker can not workkey press no response etc.
bFT stationcan not connecttest data fail cANT stationcan not connecttest data fail
7.1.1 receiver MIC can not work analyses
Receiver and MIC could be checked in loop back of CIT mode. If loop back OK, it means
there is no problem of Hardware; if loop back not OK, we must find the problem is receiver or MIC, we can make a call to check whether it is receiver or not. After we find which part have problem, we can do further analyses:
(1) Receiver problem:
We can change it to a new one, if it is OK, it means the old one is broken. If it cannot
work, there maybe some problems of U101, maybe SMT probl em or the audio part of U101 is damaged.
(2) MIC problem:
Firstly, we must check MIC soldering problem, we can change a new MIC to confirm. If it cannot work, there maybe some problems of U101, maybe SMT problem or the audio part of U101 is damaged.
7.1.2 cannot power on or can not hold power on state
There are some reasons for can not power on or can not hold power on state, maybe low power of battery, battery connector broken, SMT or soldering problem or some components damaged. Firstly, check battery voltage with 50Ω load resistance, if the voltage is lower than 3.8V, we need to charge it, if it can not be charged, we should chang e a new battery.

Then, we should check CONN402 (battery connector) whether the pins are short or open. If the pins are open, re-solder it; if the pins are short, check U401、U101、U602 and U601 to verify whether these components ar e short. If they are all OK, change a good LCD to verify whether LCD module is broken. If it c an not work either, download software again may work.
7.1.3 LCD display abnormal:
phenomenon: display white. First check LCD connecting to pad is good or not, then
check U101, whether the SMT has some problems or U101 have problems i tself.
7.1.4 SPEAKER silence
First check speaker and contact point, we can change a new one to compare; Then we
can check U202, we can play a music and test signal of speaker GPIO42_AUDIOPA_EN and MP3_L/MP3_R with oscillograph to verify if U101 have some problems.
7.1.5 Can not identify SIM card:
The reason maybe SIM card it self is badSIM card posi tion is wrongSIM card
connector is broken or PCB problems
Action: (1) Check SIM card connector contact pi n is dirty, clean it and check again. Then
change SIM card connector to check. (2) Change another SIM card to check again. (3) Check PMU U401 pin SIMVCC、pin SIMRST、pin SIMIO、pin SIMCLK to check signal
of these pins are right or not. Then change another U401 to check again.
7.1.6 Vibrator can not wor k
(1) Check peripheral circuit components . (2) Use external digital power supply (s et to 2v) to contact vibrator 2 pins to check
vibrator itself is OK or not. (3) Check U401 pinVIBR whether there is 3.2V output. Then we can solder it again or
change another one.
7.1.7 Key_press no resonse
(1) Check whether there is oxidation of key contact pads, then clean them and check

7.2 PCB failure
PCB failure mainly aim at BT test failure board.
7.2.1 DOWNLOAD fail or writing serial number error
It is mainly because of serial port or memory error. Serial port: (1) Check 10 pin IO connector CONN406 if OK or not, then check U401 output voltage
use multimeter to test VDD VCORE VMEM AVDD
(2) Check U101 and Memory IC U301, usually it is because if SMT error
7.2.2 Calibration error
Main PCB calibration is BT (board test)it incl ude battery calibration and RF calibrator. Battery calibration is adjust battery and mobile phon e parameter for mobile phone
knowing the right voltage and display. It include charging voltage and current calibration. We can check U401 and R413.
RF calibration aim at changing radio parameter for satisfying GSM spec. It include
frequency calibration, GSM and DCS receive calibration, GSM and DCS transmit calibration. Frequency calibration is AFC error. We can use TAT to check RF performance in signaling mode.
Step: (1) Check U602, U601, U101 (2) Check OSC601 (26MHz crystal) (3) Check U602, U601, U603, U401,U609.
