MTS2000 01/93 fail code
Can anyone please explain to me how an MTS2000 gets an 01/93 fail code? Why is it different from an 01/02 code?

Re: MTS2000 01/93 fail code
Thank you for your quick reply Jason. I spent a couple hours researching this before I submitted my question. I am not looking to recover the radio as it belongs to a Police Department & is headed to the depot for repair. I was trying to determine what the error really meant & how it came to be. I spoke with a very knowledgeable administrator from this site (Thank you akardam) who explained that basically the code was Motorola's way of knowing that someone had been "mucking about" with the radio.
My issue is that the Motorola repair shop I work for had been flashing the radio as part of the Nextel Rebanding process when it failed. Motorola is telling me that they won't repair the code 01/93 under the rebanding process but they will repair 01/02.
That makes sense now that I know the difference. Of course, since WE caused the error..........the fight is on!

While that fail code can be caused by mucking with the radio with lab software that is not the only way it can occur. If the flashport upgrade gets interrupted or fails before the auth code is calculated you will get a fail 01/93. We had it happen on about 3 mts portables. During a rebanding project. They will repair it. It was widespread enough moto sent out a tool to clear it to a bunch of there personnel.

As a matter of fact, the guaranteed us that we would 01/93 some, i.e. many. They gave us the tool to undo the 01/93 error, with the warning... it may or may not recover the radio.
Re-banding will take care of 01/93 errors.......
Oh yeah, killed some MCS mobiles, and a XTS3k.

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

You too? Thats funny... we killed more than I was comfortable with. Out of about 1500 radios I would say we had 10- 15 failures. And it was always someone important's radio.spectragod wrote:Oh yeah, killed some MCS mobiles, and a XTS3k.
The first MTS was my bosses fault. He had never flashed a radio before and thought the software had frozen at the loading firmware to SRIB stage, he didn't know it could take a half an hour. But the rest just failed during the process, and were not recoverable like the astro 25 series are.
