I will try that. Hopefully it will restore 3G access on a debricked K5.

Has anyone debricked a 3G K5 and their 3G worked afterwards?

EDIT: I erased the guid file, and rebooted. The ";311" search still does not find any 3G networks. A debricked K3 demo 3G access works fine, and I even saw one do an OTA update over 3G while in demo mode. The K5 demos have a B00F serial (3G model), and internally they contain a 3G modem and SIM card, and the 3G antenna. There should be a way to get it working on 3G...

UPDATE: My 3G works after flashing with 5.0.0 instead of 5.1.2, as reported here:
