2. Remove the antenna cover by using the ART–5 antenna removal tool.
Place the ART–5 flat side down in the battery recess of the phone in the
top left hand corner. The extruding ”finger” slides in the hole next to the
battery springs and when pushing the tool the antenna is released for removal
3.Remove slide: open it halfway down, and with the left side first, remove
it by flipping it over its axle.

Baseband Testing
The MCU software enters a local mode at start-up if suitable resistors are
connected to the BTEMP and BSI lines.
NOTE! Baseband doesn’t wake up automatically when the battery voltage
is connected. Power must be switched on via:
1. Pwr key or
2. BTEMP line or
3. Charger
4. Connecting J150 to ground
Alignments
NSW-6
Disassembly & Troubleshooting
Within alignment those parameters are adjusted, that cannot be set accurate enough by design, because of component tolerances.
Due to use of 5% resistor values, the channels of the CCONT A/D converters need to be aligned in the production phase.
Within battery voltage tuning VBAT the MCU software reads the A/D reading from CCONT at 4.1 V and stores this reading to EEPROM (emulated
by Flash) memory as a reference point. Then second reading is done at
3.1 V. Now the slope is known and A/D readings can be calibrated. Calibration is included in VBAT A/D reading task.
Battery charging voltage VCHAR and current ICHAR are calibrated using
one test setting. Test jig in production line must have a connection to battery terminals. ICHAR is adjusted to 500 mA and VCHAR to 8.4 V with
appropriate load connected to the battery terminals.

Trouble Shooting
The following hints should facility finding the cause of the problem when
the circuitry seems to be faulty. This trouble shooting instruction is divided following section.
1. Phone is totally dead
2. Flash programming does not work
3. Power does not stay on or the phone is jammed
4. Display information: Contact Service
5. Phone does not register to the network or phone does not make a call.
6. Audio fault.
7. Charging fault
The first thing to do is carry out a through visual check of the module. En-
sure in particular that:
a) there are not any mechanical damages
b) soldered joints are OK

Phone is totally dead
This means that phone doesn’t take current at all when the power switch
is pressed or when the watchdog disable pin (X101 pin 11 or J150) is
grounded. Used battery voltage must be higher than 3.0 V. Otherwise the
hardware of CCONT (N150) prevents totally switching power on. Here the
VBat is set to 3.6V

Disassembly & Troubleshooting
Power doesn’t stay on or the Phone is jammed
If this kind of fault has come after flash programming, there are most
probably open pins in ICs. The solder joints of ICs: MAD1 (D202), Flash
(D201) and SRAM (D200) are to be checked at the extent possible (by
microscope from the side of PCB and lightly pressing components while
switching power on).
Normally the power will be switched off by CCONT (N150) after 32 seconds, if the watch-dog of the CCONT can not be served by software. The
watch-dog updating can be seen by oscilloscope at J154 (DataselX) of
CCONT. In normal case there is a short pulse from ”1” –> 0 every 8 seconds. The power off function of CCONT can be prevented by connecting
a short circuit wire from WDDISX (CCONT E4 (J150)) to ground (J151).

The phone doesn’t register to the network or phone
doesn’t make a call
If the phone doesn’t register to the network or the phone doesn’t make a
call, the reason could be either the baseband or the RF part. The phone
can be set to wanted mode by WinTesla service software and determinate
if the fault is in RF or in baseband part (RF interface measurements).
The control lines for RF part are supplied both the System Asic (MAD
D202) and the RFI (Cobba N250). MAD handles digital control lines and
Cobba handles analog control lines.
Diagram is on the next page.
