Hi,
I have SGH-M919V and its unlocked.
I am on Bell and want to use LTE. But this model has LTE disabled. when i enable it, cant make phone calls.
I cant seem to flash T mobile modem via odin. there is this secure boot issue. the AUTH: Fails.
I was thinking of installing Bell SGH-I337M rom on my phone. Is that possible? If so, how do I go about doing it?
Thanks!
Since you have a T-Mobile variant you should ask in the sgs4 tmobile forum...
However your problem with lte/phonecalls is likely just an APN issue
To further assist we would need to know which carrier you are using the device on

Hey. thank you for the reply, I really appreciate it.
I've been asking a lot there. No one is answering.
Please help me out, please.
My phone is Canadian variant, originally from WindMobile - SGH-m919V. Wind uses Tmobile freq. = 1700/2100 (AWS) only. No LTE.
I got it unlocked two days ago, and switched over to Bell carrier. Bell uses the other freq and LTE.
When I do force LTE by *#2263# - and enable all LTE, i get LTE speeds. But NO calling or texting. this is with the original Windmobile stock rom. No modification. No root.
I tried to flash Tmobile modem via odin 3.07, didnt work. I used the phone button to load the modem.bin. It gave me AUTH: Fail, secure check fail.
I agree, wrong forum, but we are here to please....
if you have a M919V then you would flash the rom you want, before you boot, flash a tmo m919V kernel, it will boot, manually add your apn settings for your device, it will work with data/wifi/calls.
Good luck....
Hi, im sorry for posting in this forum.
so if I want to flash the bell rom - I337M stock original rom , how do I flash it without booting??
And then how would I flash the tmobile kernel so then I can boot??
I dont mind keeping my current rom - wind stock. But, I want to be able to use LTE like how tmobile has pentaband 3g plus lte.
:/ .

A friend of mine got a Sprint S4 but he wishes to use it with a GSM Carrier.
First couple things I noted are:
1) No SIM Card Contact Management, had to use an App to copy all to phone
2) Cannot find GSM APN settings to manually enter
Is it possible to flash a stock International i9500 ROM over this to alleviate the issues with using a mainly CDMA version?

I do not believe you can flash an international ROM to this phone unless you want a pretty paperweight. But there are some tutorials to unlock your SIM to be able to use on other carriers, here is where I'd start. However if he's on a Knox bootloader I think the chance is next to zero for using it on GSM because you have to 'go back' to MDC to do some required stuff.
If he wanted to use a gs4 on a GSM network he should have gotten a GSM version not a CDMA

It is actually already unlocked as he can use Voice etc just a bit tricky to get the APN settings to work for 3G...

you must install roms for sgh-i337m
Using Claro in Puerto Rico?
roms for gt-i9505 support if your team is sgh-i337m... my phone is sgh-i337m variant and this compatible install roms, which are SGH-M919 and SGH-9505
I f you want to saty on the rom you have now, check your APN settings, if you have the i337m and want a different rom, check out mapleleaf, it is close to stock and specifically for th i337m. You will need to flash modem NC1 through Odin PC.
4g lte not working
But one more thing my phone is unlocked and I'm ussing ATT service that why I am requesting help for the 4g lte issue.Should I use your recomendations or I have to wait new info.? otherwise I'm downloading mapleleaf .... mood (( STAND BY))))!
Hi,
I just purchased a Galaxy s5 sm-g9006v. This is the chinese unicon Samsung galaxy s5. It's unlocked.
I have a t-mobile sim. The phone works fine but the only problem is that it's only running 2g speeds! and i've been reading and i think it's a problem with the bands the phone is working on.
I've also been reading about changing the firm-ware modem but I need a little help.
My question :
Can I change the bands that my phone is using to t-mobile compatible bands to run hspa+ or lte or 4g ?
If so, is it as simple as flashing flashing t-mobile firmware from sammobile (sm-g900t) to my phone via odin?
And if I can fix it without having to flash the whole original firmware by just flashing the modem (which is 5mb), where can i get the modem for that firmware and how do I flash it alone ?
Thank you
i know n910C is not for USA, but here I am using N910C in USA on Tmobile network
and i am having issue with weak network/signal at many places
and i was wondering if there is a way i can install Tmobile modem/bootloader on N910C.
I already downloaded tmobile modem and bootloader and tried to install using odin,
but it fails everytime.
any help please
thanks
i have an n910H. by default, its set on 3g, metropcs lte. then ill just register it to a tmobile network. i guess my version cant get lte so the highest i get is H+. which is still as fast as lte, at least to me. and im using tmobile.
You cannot flash tmobile modem or bootloader only thing to do is buy a tmobile branded phone

Hi,
I have a Note 4 (model N910A) that I was using with AT&T. Recently I moved over to T-Mobile and kept the same phone.
So my phone is 'unlocked' and working fine but I noticed I have a lot of AT&T bloatware still on the phone so I was thinking
of flashing it with a custom ROM; my question is this.....
Should I be following the instructions for a T-Mobile Note 4 or for a AT&T Note 4? Or perhaps it doesn't matter?
Thanks in advance, any help appreciated....
As far as i know if you have n910A model you cant flash custom rom beacuse thier bootlader always comes with lock

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend flash a custom ROM onto your device. As it's specifically design to work on AT&T's LTE/4G bands, so even if you do flash a custom ROM onto it. You are not gonna be able to say put a Verizon SIM into your device and be able to use their LTE/4G bands on your device.
