Hi @ffbm+problem  have you managed to get into recovery mode ?

 

"Sometimes Android phones get stuck in an endless loop (FFBM Mode) where it is not enough to restart the phone.

If your phone is switched off: Press and hold "Volume up" and the On / Off button until the phone starts in "Recovery mode". Press "Restart System Now".

If the phone is already on: The phone starts in "FFBM mode" all the time. Press and hold "Volume down" and the On / Off button. The phone will vibrate briefly and the display shows the Doro logo.

Continue holding down the buttons until the display turns black, then release the buttons immediately. The phone should now be switched off. Press and hold "Volume up" and the On / Off button until the phone starts in "Recovery mode".

Press "Restart System Now"."

Re: Doro 8050 mobile showing FFBM mode

Many thanks to 63johnw, your answerto my problem with ffbm mode has enabledme to restart my phone and it now is working!  repair shops and engineer from sky failed to tell me how to get rid o the ffbm mode.....they all tried the 1st stage but not the second one. Now all I need to do is cancel the repair booking and happily enjoy my phone again.Thank you
