[Q] Stuck on Edge, lost 3g on Tmobile after flashing Euro firmware

Any idea as to why this happened? I am sure i lost the USA Tmobile 3g band when i updated. Any way to restore this?

Very detailed answer you will find in numerous postings.
My advice would be to read and learn other peoples experience before doing such things like changing your expensive toy's firmware.
Cheers!

Not feeling very helpful huh?
There is a t-mobile stock firmware in Odin compatible package by rotohammer.
I think you need to extract the modem.bin and just flash it back using Odin.
But frankly speaking, I don't own a tab, let alone a US version flashed into Euro.
I am just lurking around to read as much as I can before buying one and tinker with it.

Yeah, you should be able to extract the modem.bin from rotohammer's T-Mobile backup. Put it into the PHONE slot in ODIN and hit Start. (Just reflashed my modem on my AT&T Tab to get HSPA instead of HSDPA, but the process should be the same.)

I would like to be helpful but seriously man! Did you even read the COUNTLESS threads on this?? Anyway, im assuming you flashed the euro firmware to get telephony capabilities. If you flash the stock modem.bin then u get 3G but u dont get phone. If you want phone then your stuck on edge. Thats just the way it is...for now.

Even though some of us have provided some help, I must agree with what you and others are saying. It is a BAD IDEA TO NOT RESEARCH BEFORE FLASHING. Flashing is not without risk, so it is in everyone's best interest to read up before trying.

Greetings.
I'm from Puerto Rico. I have a T-Mobile Galaxy. Flash my Tablet and I got the phone. Runs much faster than the original ROM, I am using the Euro version. I echo a couple of tests with several Moden.bin. The Vibrant original gives good speed, good signal but very low sound on the phone. Axura The same thing happens. I tried the T-Mobile Original Galaxy tab and try to call and falls. I will continue playing around with it to see if I get something. In PR I have only 3G in certain areas. So I strive to both the 3G. But I will keep trying and tell them my experience. So far I leave with Moden that brings the Euro, a little shaky in the signal, but I can accept it. Great work friends.
God bless.
Saludos.
Soy de Puerto Rico. Tengo una Galaxy tab de T-Mobile. Fachee mi Tablet y conseguí el teléfono. Corre mucho más rápido que la ROM original, estoy usando la versión Euro. E echo un par de pruebas con varios Moden.bin. El original de Vibrant da buena velocidad, buena señal pero muy bajo sonido en el teléfono. El de Axura pasa igual. Probé el Original de T-Mobile Galaxy tab y trata de hacer llamada y se cae. Seguiré jugando un poco con esto a ver si consigo algo. En PR solo tengo 3G en ciertas zonas. Así que no me esforzaré tanto en el 3G. Pero seguiré probando y les cuento mi experiencia. Hasta el momento lo dejo con el Moden que trae el Euro, un poco inestable en la señal, pero puedo aceptarlo. Gran trabajo amigos.
Dios les bendiga.

I had the same problem. This is because you flashed the wrong modem.bin file I am pretty sure. I am in BC Canada, so I have to use the bell modem.bin file. I have JM6 with the bell modem giving me full data and voice capabilities. I posted some details and files on how I got it working...

What's your version? If it's international i9000 (without T or M in the end), then you cannot do it. The hardware is just not there!

My phone is a GT-I9000 dont have T or M in the end.
But i think its internacional
Thank you

Flash this modem and it will work , make sure u flash it from sd

If you have the international version though, i'm pretty sure you will never get the 850 band because of the hardware.
Let us know how it works.

The modem will not help. You don't have the hardware for 850 umts in your phone. Only i9000t or i9000m have it...
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App

Si tienes la version internacional i9000 (sin T o M en el final), el 3g 850 no va a funcionar, porque la antenna de 850 no esta dentro. Instalar otro modem no te va a ayudar.

Hitec Wireless,
Like others have told you... it is just the software side of the "support"! If you have checked with the Service manual and Schematics, some variants of Samsung Galaxy S (for RoW/EURO/APAC) lack the required PAM and FEM for the UMTS Band V (850) operation physically, while some lack the required counterparts for the UMTS Band VIII (900) operation.
Try to hook one up with a set of signal isolation box, signal generator and analyzer (R&S, Agilent, etc.), then you will find out if the Galaxy S I9000 is capable of "WCDMA 850 (FDD V)". DO NOT get confused with the "Quad-band GSM"... "If it can do quad-band in 2G, then why not in 3G?" BECAUSE the it is handled by another set of PAM and FEM.

Entiendo
He probado varios modem y nada...
Digo que es internacional porque es GT-I9000
No se mucho de eso pero seguramente tengas razón... Lo que no comprendo es porque si dice que en WCDMA si esta activa dicha banda...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Dice que esta activa, porque el sistema operativo diseñaron para ser compatible con todas las versiones de i9000 (T - Latinoamérica y Oceanía, M- Canada, B- Brasil y Argentina). Si prestas atención en Wcdma hay cuatro bandas 850, 900, 1900, 2100. Las versiones M y T tienen la ANTENA FÍSICA para las bandas de 850, 1900 y 2100, mientras que la versión internacional tiene para 900, 1900 y 2100...

I have an I9000T with Darkys 9.2 rom
I have gone into the service menu and set my band to the following
GSM: GSM 900
COMBI: GSM 900 , DCS 1800 , WCDMA 850
But everytime I change network mode from GSM to WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA
Or at least everytime I turn the phone off on
The band selection is lost and defaults back to the original
Is there anyway to hack this so it stops changing to the defaults?

I don't know a way to save these settings. I am not sure if it's even possible...

Someone please separate the U8800 and U8800+ or pro or whatever forums. This is getting too confusing. And as far as i know the U8800+ FW bricks the U8800.

Te Funciono el 3G ? ....
Y te funciono el Room que subieron? .... me gustaria resetearlo completo desde cero, por que desinstale los fondos animados y ahora no puedo instalar ninguno, es raro pero bueno.
--------------------
3G works for you? ....
And I worked the Room that went? .... I would like to completely reset it from scratch, to uninstall the animated backgrounds and now I can not install any, it's weird but good.

No me funcionó el apn. El rom que subieron funciona bien salvo por la conectividad 3G.
Apn does not work. The rom works fine except for 3G connectivity.

trataste de usar los datos apn de otro movil entel? o llama a la operadora para las datos
you try use other data apn form mobil entel? or call the operator for data

Los use pero no funcionaron.
I used but not work.

The problem is the BASEBAND
Hello, the problem for the Phones in CHILE is the Baseband, not the APN configuration.
Your baseband (and mine) is the N° 203026 (MSM7X30203026C00B628SP01_AMSS). That's the reason you only have 2G. You flash a ROM from another country with a radio frequency distinct. We don't have a copy of our ROM, yet.

Gracias.
aun asi el Room no me sirvio y bueno creo que no lo cambiare por que no quiero quedarme sin 3G ...
Alguien me podria ayudar con el problema de que elimine el Pack de fondos animados y ahora no puedo instalar casi ninguno por que no aparecen.
Gracias
-----------------------------------------------------------
Thank you.
even so the Room served and good I do not think he'll change because they do not want to stay without 3G ...
Someone could help me with the problem that eliminates the animated backgrounds pack and now I can install almost any that do not appear.
thanks

No, no me anda el 3G, pero yo no lo uso nunca, así que no es problema para mi.
Otra cosa, el Swype les anda correctamente?, me refiero a si les predice las palabras y todo eso?
________________________________________________________________________
3G doesn't work for me either, but i never use it so... it's not a problem for me.
Another question, Swype works ok for you?, i mean does it predicts the words and all of that?
Thanks c:

Existe alguna forma de usar el baseband de la version anterior y usarla la actual rom o una nueva?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there any way to use the baseband of the previous version and use the current or a new rom?

Tengo el mismo problema. ¿Alguien tiene la stock Rom de Entel Chile para el U8800-51? Gracias.

(9505)problemas con el 3g y WiFi en 4.4.2 carHd

Hello friends tell them:
I have a 9505 with carHD Rom 4.4.2 with baseband
I9505VJUEMKE. With this modem all well in 4.3 but switched to 4.4.2 and it causes problems WiFi and 3g. Being online is still falling ... The 3g connection ON tells me error.

Thanks

Question for the DEVS

Hello guys I'm here to ask for the advice of the devs, I live in Mexico and currently using this lovely and amazing phone, but I only have one not so amazing issue and thats where my question comes from, I'm with the company Movistar but its only running with the 3G band, I read that the band for LTE is 1900 and the phone does not support this band, is there any kind of way to force, patch this band on the phone, but I'm not aware if this is software or hardware, anyway please help .

It's a hardware issue, the phone only has the bands that support Tlecel and AT&T, I'm from México too.

You could try change company, Movistar is cheaper, but Telcel has better signal.

Deberías considerar cambiarte de compañia, Movistar es barato pero telcel tiene mejor cobertura.
