Unable to add microsoft account (Samsung Ativ S)

[rotkod]

Unable to add microsoft account on Samsung Ativ S, last update on phone, soft reset, hard reset... Finally, I did a flashig my phone, the phone did all the updates after that and as I opened the MS account, he dumped me on the screen:

"we have got to technical difficulties

wait a few moments and try again
If the problem is not resolved, try restarting the phone"

I try to all this 100 times!

Sometime i got this massage on screen!

Error Code 80070057

Google account works fine...

And... This massage is from Microsoft

"Please ignore any previous suggestions, there was a temporary problem on the Microsoft servers which is now fixed, please try again.
Talking to Microsoft location around the world would not have helped you in the slightest"

Ah I see, I guess they covered the server problems with "technical issues", Microsoft and their vague error messages lol.

Glad it's working for you again and I reckon i'm not the only one as there are still many people using Windows Phone 8.
