8. After the upgrade is completed, the phone restarts and the NV items are restored.
9. After the main upgrade pack is upgraded, upgrade the vendor upgrade pack using the
same upgrade method.
If the phone cannot be properly powered on, use one of the following two methods to forcibly
upgrade the phone:
- Install the battery on the phone (if the screen is jittering, remove the battery and wait for
five seconds before installing the battery again). Press and hold the Volume+ and
Volume keys, and press the Power key. The phone enters the SD forcible upgrade mode
in which the upgrade process is similar to the normal upgrade.
- While the phone has no battery installed, press and hold the Volume+ and Volume keys,
and connect the charger to the phone.
The phone enters the SD forcible upgrade. This method is recommended. If the forcible
upgrade still fails, use another microSD card and try forcible upgrade again.

Troubleshooting Process
To troubleshoot the power-on failure, firstly check whether the I/O connector (battery
connector) is damaged. If the I/O connector (battery connector) is not damaged, use a DC
regulated power supply to supply power to the phone, and test the phone's current.
The power-on failure may be caused by any of the following conditions:
- No current

The MSM chip's EARI output signal is connected to the receiver. Bypass capacitors are added
to the signal traces. The circuit shown in the previous figure is designed for compatibility.
L1508, L1510 and U1501 are reserved for the HAC function and are not soldered on the
U8655N. D1503 and D1504 are the ESD protection components on the receiver.

9.4.13 Touchscreen Panel
The U8655N's 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen panel has a touch key area containing three
touch keys. The backlight LEDs for the three touch keys are located on the PCBA. A light
guide film is used to guide light from the LEDs to the touch key area.
The following table describes the interfaces between the touchscreen panel, MSM7225A and
PM8029.

The MSM7225A is not compatible with the SIM card interface. The PM8029's MPP pins are
used to convert voltage levels of the signals for communication between the MSM7225A and
the SIM card.
The voltage of VREG_L16_UIM1 can be set to 1.53.05 V. The USIM interface's operating
voltage is usually 1.8 V or 3.0 V. The following table describes the voltage level conversion
interface of the PM8029.

9.4.15 microSD Card
The microSD card connector's SD_DETECT pin is used to detect the insertion of a microSD
card. When a microSD card is inserted, the pin is grounded and its voltage is at low level.
When no microSD is inserted, its voltage is at high level. The U1402 is an EMI and ESD
protection component for the microSD card.
