To you programmers out there I want to know if it is possible to put a new OS on the Sonim XP5s phone? I only need this phone to make calls, receive calls, have a list of contacts and be able to call voice mail.
I bought this phone new Sep.2021 as an unlock phone from a third-party seller. The phone worked fine until Jan 2022. I then had intermittent problems with the sound setting resetting itself. One of the settings, outdoor, would go to silent all by itself. When in silent mode it does not indicate a call has come in. I missed very important phone calls. All the other setting in sound would change. I called Sonim and they had me do a factory reset of the phone. However, the problem persists. They then had me fill out a bunch of questions in order to send the phone in. When they found out I bought the phone from a third-party seller they told they would not repair the phone nor honor their 3-year warranty. So, me being me I just canceled my phone service. I had bought this phone because it was rugged, and I have a cat. Now, this over $100 phone makes a good paper weight. Also, I emailed the company which is on ebay and they have never returned a message. I have also found out that if you are not a member on ebay there is no way to contact ebay or a vendor. My solution to that has been to stop buying anything from ebay.
