I bought an European Optimus 7 and it shows on the box "WCDMA 900/1900/2100, GSM850/900/1800/1900"
There's any way to put this phone to work on 3G WCDMA 850 networks at full speed?
Thanks
I own a Telus version of Optimus 7. My phone has the 900 3G band on it. I will tell you how to check whether your modem supports 850 or not. First, you open up the dialer and enter ##634#. This will install the MFG app, that will be accessible through your app list. The password that it asks is 277634#*#. Now you have access to the manufacturer test/setting menu. Proceed to the Engineer Menu, and then Modem Setting, followed by Band setting. There, you should see all the bands that are available, and WCMDA basically means UTMS or 3G. If you have the 850 band, it should be available in this menu. There are two other things you need to do before gaining access to this band, if available. But in order for me to continue, I need to know which carrier you plan to use this phone on. I am going to assume you want to use this in North America and you have already unlocked it. Let me know, and I shall help you further on making your phone functional for a 3G connection. BTW, I am typing this on my Optimus 7...the keyboard is seriously great, and if it wasn't for the loose buttons, I would have absolutely no regret over my purchase.
Thanks.
I saw here, there are these options available:
1.Automatic
2.WCDMA Only
3.GSM Only
4.WCDMA 850
5.WCDMA 1900
6.WCDMA 2100
7.GSM 850
8.GSM 900
9.GSM 1800
10.GSM 1900
11.WCDMA 900
Sorry for picking up this old thread again but there is no final answer on this.
The point is that I'm having the same problem, I have a european E900 and I can see the WCDMA 850 in the MFG settings. So is this working?
I'm going to Thailand next week and wanted to use True Move 3G which is on 850 Mhz.
Ok, just for the record - I am in Thailand now and the 850Mhz 3G Network from True Move is not working on the European E900.
Hope this helps for those who were looking for this answer.
Ok guys I don't want to take credit for any of this, the credits for this discovery goes to a captivate user in USA named shoman94. Here's his post.
I'm just reporting it here so a lot of canadian galaxy s users (I9000m) will save some search. The method to enable this frequencies is pretty simple but you need to have the recovery 2e version not the 3e that comes on UGJL2 firmware version from Bell. So if you still on stock firmware and want to play arround with modem version to see if you can find a better HSPA+ connection or a better GPS, I recommend you flash the last Speedmod Kernel via odin so you have clockworkmod recovery and the ability to apply update trought zip file not signed.
The method goes like this and it is good for I9000M / I9000T. (Might not work for I9000B as there is a tv tuner antenna so the modem firmware must be different and will not work for I9000 due to hardware limitation)
You need to have a modem that comes with 850 mhz enable (UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4, UGKC1). So if it's not your case just flash one of these modem first.
Put your phone on 850 mhz only mode. To do this just dial *#2263# in samsung dialer to enter the band selection utility. Enter menu [2] WCDMA Band en press on [5] WCDMA 850 (FDD V) and it should tell you W850 Only.
(Optional) You can dial *#0011# in samsung dialer to verify that you phone is realy using 850 band.
Reboot in recovery and update your modem with BVJJPD or BVJJPG version and reboot into android
(Optional) You can dial *#0011# in samsung dialer to verify that you phone is realy using 850 band.
Reboot into recovery and update your modem with the version of you choice (XXJVK or ZSJPG or XXJQ1 or BUJS1 or XXJVE etc) and reboot phone to android
Repeat step 2 and 3 and you should have network connection on 850 only. If it's not the case then you miss something and need to start again from step 1
If everything is good dial *#2263# again to reanable all the other fequencies so your phone can chose the strongest one depending on where you are. To do so select line [1] AUTOMATIC and it should said Select GSM & WCDMA All Bands. Then touch you optical menu button and hit back. Select Line [4] COMBI BANDS and click on the only one without asterisk ([8] WCDMA 850 (FDD V)).
Enjoy any modem version with 850 Mhz enable
Here a link to download the modem needed in step 1 and 4. There is also this site wich is good to find any of the i9000 modem version. Ironically they put UGJL2 modem under captivate folder even if it's use for I9000m.
Mod : It would be nice to have it pinned or at least added to the list of How to's and Guide.
Will this also work on JVK/B? Are there any special procedures necessary for Gingerbread?

Could not say as I haven't tried GB yet. But If you can install zip from sdcard in recovery I think it will work. This would need confirmation from other user but I'm currently using JVK modem with JS8 (2.2.1) so the other way arround should work too but I can't confirm. Make a complete backup with clockworkmod (data + system) so if it doesn't work you could just restore the system partition and everything will be fine.
could you attach the necessary modem files to your first post? or maybe a link to them
will help make it stickyable!

In theory your process should work. However, I may be doing something wrong, but the gingerbread boot loader does not allow older-CWM flashing of the modem files I have found. If there is a kernel that allows flashing of older CWM files, or if I can find the .bin files of the BVJJPD or BVJJPG so that I can flash them with Odin, it should most likely work.
At this time though, I can tell you that flashing a Froyo modem such as UGJK4 on JVK/B Gingerbread works. This is the configuration I'm running right now, and my 850 MHz band seems fully operational.
pardon the noob question but I'm on a local carrier (GCI in Alaska) and my phone doesn't get 3G when I travel to areas where it exists (I'm rural). I think they want to charge for adding 3G, even though it exists only when traveling.
I found a reference how to enable it:
androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s/258859-how-enable-850mhz-3g-network-frequency-your-samsung-i9000-galaxy-s.html
but I get an error saying the selection doesn't exist when trying to choose that 850mhz.
My carrier says it isn't enabled on SIM card. Am I S.O.L.? They have a Blackberry Plan for $30/month that says includes 3G, they have a $30 Android Smartphone plan that doesn't mention it either way, and then their basic $15 data plan I think doesn't mention it except they have a 3G option for $5 extra. Otherwise I only get Edge.
I've rooted the phone to install a couple things but haven't yet flashed any new firmware - it is buggy as heck (crashes a lot) so I'm reading the forums here - it is on baseband version XXJP2, thinking I may have to try something. Saw this thread and wondered if it would be of use to me.
thanks for patience, JD

Never heard of this model #. GT-I9000 is the international version and it will work on it if you are refering to this version.

First you need to have a modem version that supports 850 Mhz to be able to enable it (i.e. UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4, UGKC1). Once you have one of these modem you might have to add the 850 band in combi bands screen before you can actually select "only 850" in WCDMA screen. If you have JP2 modem you will be able to enable 850 only mode but you won't get any reception.
I wish someone could figure out what this procedure actually does, there must be some specific difference (in settings files?) after the phone has gone through this procedure. That difference could potentially then be applied directly.
I have a slight interest in trying the newer modems but can't be bothered to jump through this many hoops.

Once you have the file on your phone it take only 2 reboot time. 10 min max. It's not that hard and I've explained every little details so every one could follow these steps. Plus you only need to do it the first time you flash a modem that's not supposed to support 850. After that you can swich to any modem and still have 850 working.
aftter doing steps 1,2 and 3 i get no reception (if i go back to 2100 mhz, i get the signal back).
thx anyway.
To the OP, you might want to mention that this will NOT enable 850mhz on phones that do not have the hardware support!
I have enabled 850 on jvk and jvb modems with this method, they work fine with js8 froyo.

All the i9000 have the same hardware, it's just that software is not there on some version. Do you really think samsung will have made a chip that support 850/900/1900/2100 and another one with only 900/1900/2100. Complete waste of time to change the assembling line plus there is report of people with i9000 having reception on 850 band with this method.

If your operator uses 2100 frequencies it might not be using 850 too. Here in north america, operators use 850 and 1900 frequencie so we need to have both available but if your operator doesn't broadcast on 850 then you wont have any network!! My guess is that your operator uses 2100/900 or 2100/1900 frequencies or maybe they only have one. Where are you from?

Sorry sir, but you are completely wrong.
Samsung has a variety of modem chipsets used in their Galaxy S phones worldwide.
In the USA, Captivate has 850/1900/2100. Vibrant has 1700/1900/2100.
Elsewhere I believe the regular I9000 has 900/1900/2100 and the I9000M has 850/1900/2100.
There is not just one model and there is no way to activate a band on a phone whose modem is not compatible.
I wish all phones just had all bands (Nokia and Apple do the best job of this) but we are not there yet unfortunately. I too would think it would be more economical, but there could be other reasons like carrier lock in (i.e. in the US you can't switch a Vibrant to AT&T or a Captivate to T-Mobile without loosing 3G coverage).

That's why I said I9000 refering to i9000/i9000m/i9000t. The galaxy S in the US are all f***ed up. I Don't understant why samsung has to made such different model.
Then how do you explain that it's impossible to have 850 band working on any modem other than UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4 or UGKC1 without using this method. Be my guest and try to get 850 band on JPJ, JVK or any other european modem without using this methode in the first place. If you already did then it's not valid as the 850 band will stay. But I can confirm you that if you skip the part about BVJJPD or BVJJPG and then you try to turn on 850 band in the service mod with JVK you will never get reception on 850. I've tried it before I found this method on captivate forum.
So I might be wrong but I think it just a firmware limitation or compatibilities that blocks 850 bands when you have european or asian modem.
Flashing BVJJPD or BVJJPG does something special and after that you have 850 available regardless of the modem firmware you use.
If the limitation is realy hardware then samsung is complettly stupid but they seems to have learn their lesson as the SGS 2 is advertise as HSPA+ 850/900/1900/2100.
But I don't think we have any way of confirming any of these theory out of any doubt so I'll change my first post.
After updating my i9000 to GB (and of course changing the bootloaders),The GSM (not WCDMA) 850 simply can´t conect. Has anyone had the same issue? is there a way to revert to 2.2.1 bootloaders (in my opinion is the only change I´ve made). Really need help! Txs all.
PS: this issue is not related to 3G 850 mhz, which is working just fine, but to 2G (Gsm) 850 mhz, which used to work prior to GB.

Txs, but I'm having this problem on GSM (2G) 850mhz, not on WCDMA (3G).
It's like this freq suddenly "disapeared" after updating to GB.
It used to work on the same modem I'm using now.
Also no response when trying to go back to 2.2. That's why I suspect it's something related to the bootloader with GB.
have you had any luck getting your 2g working im in the same boat
Hey all,
Just recently bought a 2nd hand Samsung galaxy s i-9000.
My sim card here in oz uses 900/18002G/gsm and 900/21003G.
However, I am having problems connecting to the 900Mhz band for 2G and 3G networks in this phone.
When I go into service mode of phone *#*#0011#*#* I can see the bands it uses under automatic
showing
gsm
850*
900*
1800*
1900*
wcdma
2100*
1900*
900
850*
I also went into the service menu under version info and have seen this
CP sw version i9000 UGJK4
FTA sw version I9000M.001
Does this mean this is an 850Mhz phone for wcdma and is the Canadian Galaxy S version or the i9000m model? Can any experts gurus confirm this?
Interestingly I cannot get 900Mhz 2G at all or call out on this frequency instead getting 1800Mhz as the only gsm band to work with my sim card.
TIA to all expert replies.

Ok,
Discovered the solution hope this helps others getting into the brilliant Galaxy S phone.
This link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377042
shows that the OP had the same issues as me. So I did what he said and flashed the signed CM7 version of JVT onto the phone with clockwork recovery 3 button press.
The previous modem was utilising the 850Mhz and that is not compatible with my sim card as certain bands were blocked.
Now going into the service menu I see the JVT baseband modem and furthermore all the GSM are * and for the wcdma
2100*
1900*
900*
850
note the 850 is not ticked anymore and I confirmed in basic information that the gsm 900Mhz now works..
Woooooooooooooooooooooooott I am excited phone now works properly with my sim carrier. Seems like the previous owner was using the Telstra network on this phone.
Hello. I have a Xiaomi Redmi 2 2014811 subversion which doesn't have the 850 GSM band that I need in the rural area where I live.
I have seen that the submodel 2014819 (Brazil) has this band and I would like to know if is possible to change the baseband by flashing any software.
In other words: Are submodels 2014811, 2014819 the same hardware with different radio/modem partition softwares or have they different hardwares?
I have seen that with other mobiles like Moto E 2015 is possible to change the region of the baseband by software:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/help/question-models-bands-t3163453
Thanks
I hope someone can help you with this
Hi, I'm Brazilian and got the HM2014819, as soon as I get the partition table I will upload it for you TO TRY of course after a Nandroid Backup by you. I will upload if the size match with my data plan :good:
Well, I don't know if you will can successfully flash it, and if it will work.
Going to dump the modem here in a .img that you can flash or make a flash zip
Thanks Lennoard, but I think is not a modem issue. I am on the way to Unlock the GSM bands in the Qualcomm, if it would be possible.
I have followed all the steps in
- Unlocking Basebands on MI4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4/general/unlocking-basebands-mi4-t2879685)
- Unlock all bands of your Qualcomm device! Use your phone globally! No bs! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...ad-progress-please-leave-im-updating-t2871269)
- [Q & A] how can i enable qualcom diagnostic mode? SOLVED (http://en.miui.com/thread-100458-1-1.html)
Now, if I read the NV_RF_BC_CONFIG_I (#1877) from phone, the value is changed and all GSM and WCDMA bands are enabled, included the GSM 850 MHz band.
But I cannot connect to any GSM band and doesn't recognize any GSM provider in the area.
Bad luck
Anybody has tried this way with success?
Thanks
Anybody changed the basebands of a xiaomi redmi 2 in the qualcomm way with success?
I've tried the Qualcomm method and so far it's not working. Whenever I tried to add GSM/WCDMA bands, my phone keeps restarting. But, I can confirm that I can disable bands. When I tried to add LTE bands 5(850mhz) and 28(700mhz), the phone didn't restart but after disabling all other LTE bands, I'm quite sure the phone couldn't detect those bands. I don't think I can enable it because well... someone with an OPO couldn't... and 700mhz is just really low...
I don't know what's causing my phone to restart everytime I've added additional bands. What rom and you using? I'm using resurrection remix.

Thanks. Now I doesn't feel so lonely.
I did the changes of NV with MIUI v7 installed in the phone and indeed, the changes are still present and the mobile works exactly like before the changes. I read the NV and the bands are enabled, but still doesn't connect to any different bands than before.
It is strange the behaviour you get with a different rom. The NVs should be not affected by the ROM, it isn't?
Which submodel of redmi 2 do you have? Is possible that different hardware or antennas could be assembled in the different submodels of this mobile?
Thanks

I'm using 2014813, I wanted to add 900mhz wcdma which 2014811 has, but I chose 2014813 because it supported more lte frequencies that my carrier uses. There's also some lte frequencies that both models don't support which I tried to add.

Ups! What a different behaviour! Is it maybe because you are changing the NVs for 4G/LTE? I only enabled all the 2G and WCDMA (3G) Bands and didn't changed anything in the 4G and my phone just works and detects networks exactly like before, nothing looked like to change.

Have only messed with 2G/3G so far, adding 900mhz wcdma is still causing issues for me. I can enable 850mhz gsm but I don't know if it would actually work because no carrier uses 850mhz gsm here.

According to the specs:
HM2014813 Is "China Mobile 4G Dual-Sim Version". It Supports These Network Bands/Frequencies:
4G Network : TDD-LTE (B38 / B39 / B40 / B41: 2555-2655 MHz); FDD-LTE (B3 / B7)
3G Network : TD-SCDMA (1900 / 2100 MHz); WCDMA (850 /1900 / 2100 MHz)
2G network : GSM (900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz)
The phone should have an antenna capable to work at 900 MHz, because it uses this frequency for GSM, then, adding support for WCDMA 900 MHz is not a radio issue but a logic one. Doesn't it?

I enabled all the bands using the NV calculator and saved the value that after restarting is still stored, but nothing changed. The phone is working since this (2 weeks ago) exactly like before, no any strange behaviour.
Then... still there are no signs of anybody saying that this method works with this model.
But I don't loose the faith

Unlock all bands of your Qualcomm device! Use your phone globally! No bs!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...ad-progress-please-leave-im-updating-t2871269
I enabled all the bands using the NV calculator and saved the value that after restarting is still stored, but nothing changed. The phone is working since this (2 weeks ago) exactly like before, no any strange behaviour.
Then... still there are no signs of anybody saying that this method works with this model.
But I don't loose the faith

I don't know if antenna placement is different but the modem between the sub models aren't compatible with each other. This is what I would need to do to get any signal at all.
With mztool, try selecting only 850mhz gsm and edit the RF BC Config as well as the Band Preference values and see what happens.
I think I might need to conclude that I have not been able to get 900 mhz wcdma working on my 2014813 despite the 2014811 having it. Also with LTE I haven't been able to unlock any additional bands.
Hii all, I'm interested with this topic too.
I would like to add LTE band40 which 2014813 has.
What happen if i flash baseband from rom 2014813 to 2014811 ?

Flashing the 2014813 modem on your 2014811 would probably lose your signal. This or this is what would need to be done if you have a 2014813 and flashed a rom with a 2014811 modem in it.
Happy new year to you, all. @MagMar I already try to flash 2014813 modem to my 2014811..it is no signal but imei n baseband are find..but my 4g card display correctly at lte discovery..so maybe you can share nv config value (like nv 1877, 6828 n 2others) that 2014813 have...n i think lte freq dependent with 3g freq also

While I've flashed 2014811, my phone does recognise the imei and baseband but it'll tell me that I have no service. Both models do share some of the same bands so it should be able to connect assuming both models have a supported band to the carrier. This is why I think that flashing different modems and editing the NVs won't work.

I'm using 2014813, I wanted to add 900mhz wcdma which 2014811 has, but I chose 2014813 because it supported more lte frequencies that my carrier uses. There's also some lte frequencies that both models don't support which I tried to add.
I'll try to add bands with miui tomorrow.

Mine is 2014813(running a mokee 60.1 rom), too. I've tried to add wcdma 900 through changing the four nv values specified by the mztool and fdd b1&b8 through changing the lte_bc_config nv value. So far everything seems to be fine. While, I not sure whether those changes are successful or not. Do you have any idea how to confirm that those added bands are working or not?
