Introduction
This document describes in overview the different hardware error possibilities for the
RH-12/RH-28 phone.
Not every possible hardware error is described in this document, but only those possible
to correct.

General Failures
Phone is dead
This means that the phone doesn’t use any current at all when supply is connected and/
or power key is pressed.
It is assumed that the voltage supplied is 3,9Vdc. UEME will prevent any functionality at
battery/supply levels below 2,9Vdc and the software will shut the phone down at 3,1Vdc.

Flash programming doesn’t work
The flash programming on RH-12/RH-28 boards is only possible via the pads on the PWB.
In case of Flash failure in production (FLALI station), problem is most likely related to
SMD problems. Possible failures could be Short-circuiting of balls under µBGAs (e.g.
UEME, TIKUEDGE, SDRAM, FLASH), missing or misaligned components.
In flash programming error cases the flash prommer (via Phoenix or Darium) can give
some information about the fault. The fault information messages could be:
• Phone doesn't set Flashbus TXD line high after VCC is switch on.
• External RAM test failed.
These errors are some of the most common errors and based on this, a fault finding diagram for flash programming is shown below. Various errors can appear from the prommer when flashing the phone - not all of them can be directly linked to the HW or phone.
Because of the use of uBGA components, it is not possible to verify on the diagram, if
there is a short circuit in control and address/data lines on TIKUEDGE, NOR flash, NAND
flash or SDRAM.
Re-solder \ Replace componet
Fix the connections if possible.
Else scarp the phone.
Figure 2: Flash programming does not work
Prommer information is:
External RAM test failed. (C108)

Charging Failure
Charging fails and no current
drawn from 'charger'
Yes
Measure Vchar voltage on V101.
Is it > 3,0V?
Yes
Recalibrate charger circuitry and
retest. Did it work ?
Yes
END
Display information when charger
connected: "Not charging"
Yes
Recalibrate charger circuitry and
retest. Did it work ?
NO
Check:
X101, F100, C121, V101, C102,
C103 and PWB
D200 (UEME) is faulty NO
END Yes
No
Verify through Phoenix that BSI =
~75kOhm (BL-5C) and BTEMP =
~47kOhm @ roomtemperature
(~25C)
Yes
Measure voltage on R200 towards
D200. Should be the same as
Vbat voltage
Yes
Phone should work. If not change
whole engine board
No
No
Check:
BSI: Battery (BL-5C), C100, R203,

Phone doesn’t stay on, or phone is jammed
If this kind of a failure is presenting itself immediately after FLALI, it is most likely caused
by ASICs missing contact with PWB.
If the MCU doesn’t service the watchdog register within the UEME, the operations
watchdog will run out after approximately 32 seconds. It is not possible to measure this
service routine.

Display Information: “Contact Service”
When this error appears in the display it means that one or more of the internal baseband tests has failed. The baseband tests (self tests) are performed each time the phone
is powered on. The self tests are divided into those performed while powering up (Start
up tests) and the ones that can be executed with a PC using Phoenix (Runtime tests). The
following Start-up tests are performed during power up:
UEM CBUS IF TEST
SLEEP X LOOP TEST
AUX DA LOOP TEST
EAR DATA LOOP TEST
TX IDP LOOP TEST
TX IQ DP LOOP TEST
SIM CLK LOOP TEST
SIM IO CTRL LOOP TEST
MBUS RX TX LOOP TEST
BACKUP BATT TEST
RADIO TEST
WARRANTY TEST
PA TEMP TEST
SIM LOCK TEST
PPM VALIDITY TEST
KEYBOARD STUCK TEST
LPRF IF TEST
FLASH CHECKSUM TEST
CAMERA IF TEST
EXT RAM DATA BUS TEST
EXT RAM ADDR BUS TEST
NAND FLASH ID TEST
BT WAKEUP TEST
IR IF_TEST
If all these self tests are passed, the phone will start up.
From Phoenix it’s possible to run all the self tests and the additional “Runtime test”. The
test cases can be seen below.
