I would guess something happened to the model file.
Can you reproduce R-factors yourself? Take data file and model that you 
sent to PDB, and use either of availbale tools in Phenix to compute 
R-factors:

phenix.model_vs_data model.pdb data.mtz
or
phenix.refine model.pdb data.mtz strategy=none main.number_of_macro_cycles=1

Do you get the same R-factors?

Use FEM instead:

phenix.fem model.pdb data.mtz

There is option in the GUI too. More information
