[How To] Enable HSUPA on Captivate

Okay, I'm sorry guys, I made a huge mistake and didn't test an actual voice call before posting this guide. I saw it connect to the network, and the data including HSUPA worked, but voice calls have no sound. Not only that, but this DOES only work on 1900 MHz, so if you're in an 850 MHz area, you won't be able to connect to a tower. So for now, this guide is no good. Not all hope is lost though. There are compatible Canadian carriers, and when we get a radio file from them we can try again. For now, don't apply the EU radio to your Captivate or you won't be able to hear anyone in voice calls. Sorry again for not testing better before getting everyone's hopes up. I'll update this thread once I get a Canadian ROM to test.
Well, I've been pretty vocal about this issue, because it's one that really bothered me. Mainly because the Galaxy S supports HSUPA, and really, any new high end phone should. I suspected AT&T was disabling it on the Captivate, likely to save features like that for the iPhone 4, and it looks like that was right.
After a suggestion from trinikartel (thanks twice for good info that helped figure this out!), I flashed the i9000 JP3 modem firmware to the Captivate, and sure enough, the result was:

I've only been an Android owner for less than two weeks, so it took a little while to figure out at first, haha, but the process is very simple:
1. Download an i9000 firmware, I got the JP3 firmware from http://samsung-firmware.webs.com. See my note below
2. Extract the firmware and find the modem firmware tar file. I9000XXJP3.tar for JP3, not to be confused with I9000XXJP3.rar which was the whole archive. If you're not sure, open it up, it should have modem.bin in it.
3. Put your phone into download mode by turning off your phone, plugging it into your computer, waiting for the green battery charging icon to appear, then holding vol+ and vol- at the same time and holding power until the screen goes black, then releasing power ONLY until you get the yellow construction sign that says Downloading...
4. Use odin to flash the modem firmware file. I used all default settings, just click the PHONE button under files and choose the modem firmware tar file, then press start.
It should only take about 10 seconds or so then your phone will reboot and you're done. This is what you should see on odin:
Once it starts up, you can run a speed test to verify that it's working.
NOTES: Of course the standard disclaimer applies, flash at your own risk. Hell, I haven't even had an Android phone for 2 weeks yet and this is my first time flashing, so be careful. It should be a very easy process though.
In regards to step 1 above, I have only tested this with the JP3 modem firmware, however, that's a 2.2 beta or even alpha firmware, so use it at your own risk. Everything seems to work fine with it coupled with my stock JF6 ROM though. I don't see any reason at all why an i9000 2.1 modem firmware wouldn't do the same thing and be more stable though, I just haven't tested it yet. I'm about to test it now, and I'll update this in little while with the results, so if you don't want to use the JP3 firmware, wait a few minutes.

Very nice, it will be even better once they fix the upload issues on their network!
flashing now... I will report results asap.

CONFIRMED WORKING!

Great job on the write up! Glad to have helped with this one...it's gonna be huge for everyone involved.
Double check to verify GPS, Bluetooth etc are still working like normal

Okay, so there could be one possible issue, but I can't test it in my area. I don't know that the EU modem software will support 850 MHz 3G, but my area is only 1900, so it works fine.
This may cause issues with 3G for people in 850 MHz areas following this guide, but you can always flash back if you do have issues, so we'll know more after someone in 850 MHz area tries it.

Neither can I. As you can see it gives me a Tennessee server as my closest, but I live in Raleigh, NC. I know there is a server that's just down the road from me, but I can't get the damn thing to see the right servers. Just play around with different servers until you get one that seems pretty fast. Even with 10 or so servers closer, I found the Reston, VA server to be the fastest for me when it was finding the proper location.

thanks buddy!

I am in a 850Mhz coverage area, flashed to the 2.1 MODEM_I19000XXJM1.tar and couldn't connect to a 850Mhz tower. Usually when the phone is by my desk I am on 850Mhz, and I verify it by putting the phone in network mode *#0011#. After flashing the phone showed 1900mhz and poor -db, flashed back to default modem software and locked back onto 850Mhz band.
Someone else in a 850Mhz area should verify my findings that the modem firmware for the EU version disables 850Mhz band.

****, can someone try making a call that has done this mod? I connected, got internet and everything, but I'm not hearing anything in my calls. It looks like it's calling, I just can't hear anything. I guess I never tried actually making a call before posting this.
This whole guide may be pointless other than to show us that it is indeed a restriction in modem firmware.

haha, yup, nothing....

hi where did you find the default modem firmware ?
thanks

Guess we'll want to try and find the Canadian firmware since it will be 850mhz and see if that helps (when it's available).
-James

Well damn, sorry for the premature celebration on this one. I could deal with no 850 MHz 3G since we're only 1900 MHz in my area, even though that wouldn't be a good final solution for everyone, but no voice in call isn't good for anyone.
I guess disregard this guide for now. Like I said, I'm still new to Android, but I've asked and it looks like there's no way to modify the radio firmwares.
It looks like the best bet is to look to the Canadian versions, I know they have networks that run 850/1900. If it's just AT&T with the restriction, perhaps their radio will enable HSUPA without any issues.
Edit: Hah, James beat me to it, exactly what I was thinking. I know Rogers has a Galaxy S planned. As soon as I can get one of those firmware's I'll try this again. Sorry guys, a call should have been the first thing I did, that was my mistake!

If you haven't flashed anything from the first post, then don't worry about it. This ended up not working on the Captivate, so there's nothing to change right now. I just posted the stock radio for anyone who had done my mod before I realized the mistake. That way they don't have to download the entire firmware, they can download the smaller radio file.

Nice try man. Subbed for your future endevors

[Tutorial] Why my IMEI missing & NO network?

Your IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is transmitted to the Network provider the moment you switch ON your phone
It is used by your Network to identify the following
1) The first two numbers is RBI (Reporting Body Identifier) = who registered that type of phone ( verify here )
2) The next four numbers is TAC (Type Allocation Code) = what type of unit and its complete specifications
3)The next two numbers is FAC (Final Assembly Code) = who manufacture it
example :-
01 AEG
04 Samsung
07 Motorola
10 Nokia
30 Ericsson
41 Siemens
50 Bosch
51 Sony
4) The next six numbers is the Serial Number of the Phone
5) The last number is sort of a check sum, that verifies the previous numbers
Combined a total of 15 numbers is used by your network to get the complete information about your phone that is used against their database of Blacklisted phones and final approval to connect to their network, IF they were inaccurate or had complaints (like being stolen, not paid telecoms dues etc) it will be rejected and BLOCKED immediately from connecting to that Network
You can verify all this by entering you IMEI here and here
And also here to check if it is blacklisted
Your IMEI is also needed for networks to BLOCK your phone when needed as well as ANTI theft apps.
Hence if your IMEI changes or gets lost, it may fail to connect to the network, depending on the restrictions of that network provider.
It is clear that Flashing custom ROMS can cause your IMEI to Change or get deleted as they may be ported from another manufacturer or from another version of the same manufacturer as the IMEI embedded in the chip of your phone.
IF you want to AVOID this problem, safe you EFS folder the moment you think of Flashing any ROM that is NOT the original Firmware for that phone
It is noted that to resolve this problem you have to return to its original firmware to recover your embedded IMEI and do a progressive upgrade . eg. from GingerBread to ICS before going on to Jelly Bean

I believe this is also possible as some of the manufacturers are using more than one FAC (Final Assembly Code) and some do have the same FAC....end of the day only the manufacturer would have chosen what they wish to use, on the other hand the checksum of the 15 numbers in total, should give the correct model and specs to the network .

I had this very problem tonight. Flashed back to stock to try and fix a camera problem, then just installed cm10 to fix the partitions and applied my JB backup.
That's when I hit the imei problem. When I copied the efs folder across and rebooted it didn't fix it, came up some error. Then I manually copied the imei folder across, and then manually copy/replaced the loose files from my efs backup across into efs, leaving the extra files that were there from the install.
Meaning instead of completely replacing the efs folder with my backed up one, just adding all the files from the backup folder into the installed efs folder, replace any with identical names though.
Rebooted and it worked fine saving me having to go back to GB and progressively work my way back up. Nice..

Nope...what you did has already been written and advised as a way, to resolve IMEI recovery by me in June 2012 and other methods were recently deleted by MODs as they can sort of edit the IMEI (which is illegal to do) ..so, no problem, you have done it in one way ( because you had a backup) and there are other ways too...all compiled on that link as well as My Android Solutions, link below

Just had a proper read through that thread. Thanks
I thought that the way I did it was a little different because it didn't work when I tried replacing the installed efs folder with my backed up one, maybe not though.

Galaxy y Duos 3G/HSDPA lost after rom flash

Hello guys,as the title says,i have this annoying problem.
After the phone came from warranty(due to a sod),the connection was ok.used 1 orange sim(1900mhz) and 1 data sim(umts 2100) without any problems.i got a very bad itch :banghead: and updated the rom to latest Croatia pack(MA1 if i'm not mistaken,i dont have the phone now,my gf does).i'm from Romania,wich is very close to Croatia.flashing went good,no problems,but now all i get is EDGE/GPRS connection.no 3g or hsdpa/hsupa.what could've caused this and,most important,how could i fix it?i looked for the original firmware,couldn't find it.it was something with XXLL9 or XXLA9.i already tried flashing another stock rom with odin,pit and bootloader.
if it is modem related,what version should i flash?thanks in advance.

Then I flashed this http://galaxy-updates.org/showthread.php?tid=83,(Croatia) since is newer version.Wanted to have a new base for any custom rom i would use.After this i flashed DreamFusion ICS.All installes were clean,with proper wipes.
Tomorrow will try stock LG3 firmware.
Besides, i always set the CSC to XEU(nordic countries),because there are some promotions on samsung apps on that region. It happend to me many times to get free games/apps from samsung apps,while on market they costed alot .

Are you sure your setting is proper.. i mean have you set 3g connection to proper sim?? inside settings-->wireless networks--> mobile networks option?
Also, check in sim manager option to see if it has set to proper data connection if you have data connection on both sims.. you might be using the wrong sim here.. and make sure you are getting 3g reception in that area where you are trying to use 3g connection.. by putting that icon to some other phone with 3g capabilities.. or try changing sim slots and see if 2nd slot / vice versa may be able to connect..

My friend, i'm not that noob...Both sims working great with other phones,3g/hsdpa ok.
It also worked before i got that itch to flash new rom.The funny thing is,after the kies update, it is the same version i flashed with odin ...
I made some investigations, using secret codes.Status check with *#*#4636#*#*
Results are these:
Orange Sim(2G/3G-900-1900Mhz) : can connect only on EDGE,it shows network type EDGE only(while it should've been HSDPA)
Digi Mobile(Data only sim UMTS 2100Mhz) : The damn thing sees the HSDPA network type,but GPRS service disconnected.
I'm going NUTS:cyclops:

Those minor details might get overlooked when we try to troubleshoot.. so to be safe than sorry.. just made sure it wasn't the cause.. anyway... can you show screenshot of both sim setting if you don't mind? I mean , mobile network option(in settings)
It would help understand more.. have you tried contacting your service provider? What they told?

I don't have network mode option like you do.But i went in service mode,with the secret code, and choose theer proper settings...
I don't have other options.all i have is dual sim manager and some suplimentary settings in wireless and network.
all of those are properly set,no problems there, since i do get edge connection on the 3g settings on orange sim.to be honest, i don't care about that sim, because i don't use data on orange.i'm interesting in data sim(digi mobile),but that network works only on UMTS2100.this means no gprs/edge connection will work....and this sux...big time.

Well, I do have y duos.. and I don't know why samsung choose to put that pop up menu instead of check box option only in indian stock version roms..anyway, I like it that way.. anyway.. I guess this is going no where.. as I'm not able to understand how you are not getting 3g if you have 3g coverage and if your sim was supposed to be able to connect to 3g networks.. you sure you have been able to connect to 3g with that same sim? And your carrier has not blocked 3g to that sim??

APNs missing your Simcard not download it auto you must manual

on orange,the apn is created automatically.2 apn's,mms and internet.
for digi,i create it myself,i need only name and apn to be completed.this is how it works here.it always have been like this.orange is a recognized provider and the apn is created when you insert the sim.
the sims are ok,i tested them on this note.
i guess i'll just send the phone to warranty,since it has the original software.

I have the same problem. i.e. it works great on 2g/gprs but the moment I change setting to WCDMA it gets disconnected and won't connect.
Driving me nuts as I tried to reset the phone few times to factory defaults, but still the same.
Not rooted.
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: S6102DDMF4
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7
Version: DDMF4 (auto update from samsung)
Any help is greatly appreciated. I use this as my backup phone / hot spot when I travel. This issue made it effectively useless..

Well, I think its a baseband issue as the two "XX" in your baseband version should be "JC"
A quick search on google led me to this site;
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f45...known-baseband-successfully-repaired-1760141/
I would advise you to read it and follow the instructions, on your own risk of course.
Basicly you need a rooted phone and odin installed on your computer.
Then download the EFS file provided on the forum, and flash it with odin. They say it will give "error" message, but you should not wory about that.
At the end he says that you might need to follow these steps and it might take a while.
1 - Choose GSM in network settings.
2 - Turn "airplane mode" on.
3 - Call 112 (radio will be automatically activated) and DONT interupt, let phone end call itself.
4 - Power off the phone.
5 - Power on again and now let phone find the network itself, for him it took 2 hours, for his friend it took about 6 or 7 hours.
Try this and let us know if it worked!

Just like that without even mentioning what variant and region. Gl

First of all you need to see if the baseband is normal and need to see if the IMEI is normal if it is 0049 that is more trouble
If everything is normal, you can try to use Odin to restore or SPT-BOX software tools to repair my English is not very good sorry

my imei 0049 ... and the serial number 0000 ...! What can I do about it? Ariza patch does not work on note 3. Yes, and at the Lollipop ...

You lost IMEI. Try to install stock rom with odin (I solved the problem in this way)

I have new motherboard, no officially motherboard!

I have the same big problem , I installed a stock rom 5.0 not modified, I did a factory reset. My imei is
358588058911910/01
the imei wrote behind the battery is
358588/05/891191/0
What should I do to return to a normal use, I can't give a phone call. The rom is
Android 5.0 N9005XXUGPOF3
I have change The BB original to N9005XXUGBOA1
BUt allways "not registered to the network !!!
I'm lost !! Thanks to give a solution if you have it.
