S5 G900L LTE problem in Europe zone

Hi, i have an S5 model G900L but i live in europe and seems it use different band frequency (850 instead of 800?) for LTE.
I'm able to get gms 2G/3G network but not 4G also if i have a 4G LTE enabled plan from my provider.
So i tryed to flash with odin g900f firmware on my g900L it fail for secure check.
I flashed it with mobile from device and SD odin and it worked. but device wont boot and redirect on download skin for odin for boot failure.
I also tryes to flash only modem part of firmware. phone boot but no 4g yet.
I hear the chip support all LTE frequency so it should be a parameter/soft problem.
There is any exploit for enable or costumize LTE frequency of my G900L for my geographic zone (europe)?
My device is rooted and with cwm recovery 6.0.48 working.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but frequencies are a hardware capability, not software. So the hardware you have is not capable of supporting that frequency.

I'm not sure LTE (modem) chip is integrate into Snapdragon 801 processor. Every model T-F-L-I-A etc have same hardware chip "Gobi" should be MDM9625 model.
Chip is able to work with multi-band so if frequency are not fixed into something like an eprom of gobi for each model i guess it just work with drivers/firmware loaded on device boot.
I found a file in root>dev> __properties__
and found a different modem model
"MSM8974PRO"
with all specs and was a row interesting about gms band
Code:
ril.skt.network_regist_status „ÿ baseband
G900LKLU1AND2 gsm.version.baseband operator 8 ´ H numeric 22201
gsm.version.baseband operator 8 match with korean skt operator maybe i should switch it to 5 (european LTE band).
I wish to try replace some file from stock g900F firmware but have few issue to extract system.img.ext4 on wndows.
so i can't test if replacing firmware ans some setting file want let me able to connect on a different LTE band

Hello All,

and about 2G,3G and LTE are you able to switch data mode from "mobile network" menu?
Mine G900L not show me switch option
can you post a screen of your menu is look like this?

Yes, I get the same screen each time I start the phone and like you, i'm not able to find the menu to switch networl option.
I will take the screen captures asap. But for me i can get the LTE without problem.

Do you mean guys that if I bought a galaxy s5 model SM-G900F I can flash it with another model frimeware like SM-G9008V or SM-G900I and the 4g frequencies will will work fine after the flash???

Hi all,
I am having the same issue with my G900L (on Baseband G900LKLU1AND2) in the UK - 3G is fine but no 4G (SIM is 4G ready). I am getting the same prompts that ramsesxv posted as screen shots. Ramsesxv have you found a fix? Does anyone else have any ideas please?

I just got my s5 g900L. I too had problems with LTE. But I found a fix from another post.

Hi Bimmerboii,
I also have an unlocked SM-G900L which I picked up in Hong Kong and use on the 3-mobile network in the UK. I have changed the Data Setting to Auto and will wait to see if it can pick up a 4G network when I am next in London.
Could you help with some of the additional settings please? The Phone is LG-Uplus branded and is set by them to always be in roaming mode when I am in the UK. If possible I would like to make the UK my home network. Under Data Setting there is a submenu called Roaming Realm. Entering this opens a dialogue box with Cancel and OK buttons. Would you know what to enter here to set the United Kingdom as my home country?
Many thanks,
Chuffbabt

I'm confused by your query, I've just bought this phone from an eBay seller (wish I'd researched beforehand, but hey oh) and will also be using it on the Three-UK network when it arrives. I'm convinced it should work on 4G though since I believe Three UK is using the 1800mhz (correct me if I'm wrong) band for 4G which this phone definitely supports. Other than that, have you had any other signal issues in general?

Hi,
Overall I am really pleased with the phone, and the reception has generally been excellent but I have never managed to get it working on 4G. I can't say I have spent a lot of time trying, because there is no 4G signal where I live anyway.
It may well be hardware compatible, but the connection settings imposed by the Korean issuer will not allow 4G in any country it sees as roaming (ie not Korea). It works fine with Three in the UK and I have used it extensively abroad on Three's Feel at Home contract without any problems.
If you do come across any sort of firmware update that allows 4G in the UK, it would be great if you could let me know.
Thanks,
Chuffbaby

[Q] No 2G on N9005

Hey guys, first timer here. Having a bit of issues with H+ / 2G and 4.4.2 battery drain.
I know that 4.4.2 has a battery drain bug that will be addressed with the launch of 4.4.3 and so I'll have to just keep waiting until it reaches my phone. However, I'm using the LIME network here in Jamaica and I'm unable to get 2G. This being the case, my phone stays on H+ while I'm on the road and this kills my battery very rapidly. What I usually do with my note 2 was to keep it on 2G until I needed to browse and that would allow my battery to last for up to about 16 hours.
When I select GSM only, I don't get any data whatsoever. When I check with my provider, they claim that the 2G band on my phone probably isn't compatible with theirs. I find this strange, because this note 3 is an international version. Are there any tricks, hacks or anything that anyone can give me to get 2G on demand and save some battery?
Ps. I normally use 'tellinfo' on the note 2, but it apparently isn't compatible with the N9005. Any help'd be greatly appreciated.

ask operator for their band specifications and then search it to find flashable package of modem of
N9005 that s compatible with urs.
then flash that modem.zip Or flash whole rom of another region

According to GSMArena, Jamaica uses the following bands

Are you sure, that there is 2G coverage in your area?

Many phone flashed with Super imei facing this problem, comform your imei number typing in keypad *#06# , compare with sticker under battery or box.

Well I don't know how it was flashed, but when I typed that in, I got a different imei than what's on the back of the phone. Is there any way I can fix it back? The phone keeps coming off the network and saying not registered, etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a fix for this problem but u need to tack your mobile to Mobile service shop who has a TOOL SPT Box, look below link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2639341
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50669735&postcount=8

Sounds promising. I'll get on it Monday morning and post back here with the results. This should work for the 2G issue, but what do I need to do about the changing imei? I'd much rather get the phone back on the original

Additionally, I hear mention from a couple of persons that they ended up taking their phones to repair shops and had them do it. Is it that special hardware has to be used along with the spt software; or can I just connect up to my laptop with the software and do it myself?

Can you force 3g

My office is at my home. Our area has very poor sevice. I had to get a range extender from Verizon since it is so bad. I have no need for 4g since i have good wireless internet. I don't want to drain the battery with the phone constantly looking for 4g. Does the phone have a setting to force 3g or does anyone know if one of the toggle widgets will work?
That is one of the things i didn't like about my LG G2. You could not turn off 4g. Battery life on it is excellent on it despite the issue.

That's the problem I had with the G2. There was no setting on my Verizon phone to force it. No widgets would work with it. To my knowledge no one ever found a way to do it. Can anyone confirm we can do this on the Pure with Verizon service.
Thanks,

Also on Verizon and would love a way to force it off 4G at the area by my work which is where a bunch of medical centers are the 4G bandwidth is <1MB and often internet cuts in even with good signal. The issue is simple overcrowding of their local capacity. When I had my OG droid which used CDMA I had no issues with performance.
I think we are going to be finding more users looking for this so hopefully there will be a hack or an update to allow for this!

You can force it on LG devices (tested on both G2 and G3). Provided that your device has the Verizon Hidden Menu apk (custom ROMs have it, might not be present on stock, I don't remember), run the following in a terminal app: am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.lge.VerizonHiddenMenu/com.lge.VerizonHiddenMenu.systemSelection.SystemSelection
It'll pop up a menu selection that lets you choose between the various network modes: CDMA+LTE/EVDO Auto (2G, 3G, and 4G), LTE Only (just 4G), EVDO only (just 3G), CDMA w/o EVDO (just 2G), and CDMA w/ EVDO (2G+3G). There's also some GSM/WCDMA options in there.
No clue if something similar exists for the Pure, but just thought I should point that out.

I downloaded the LTE OnOff app for HTC Thunderbolt today and can confirm that it does work. I set it to CDMA auto (PRL) and the phone is staying in 3g.

I have a network extender at home on Verizon. My old S4 would connect to the extender. After 2 days, my MPXE has not connected. I just moved the SIM from the S4 to the MPXE.
Do I need to call Verizon and register my phone with them?
Any suggestions?

I did not have to contact Verizon. DIAL #48 to see if you are connected. I just had to force 3g so my X would not constantly try to connect to 4g. You dont get the little house on this phone, so you might actually be connected.

I use the app call Network Signal Pro which tells me what kind of cellular signal is being used. It reports LTE, but has low signal strength.
With my old phone, when I was connected to the Net Extender I would hear a beep before the call rings thru. the Net Signal Pro would also report "network extender" as the network type.
What does #48 do to the phone?

I think in the secret menu you can force it to CDMA only. I saw it but for me I chose lte/CDMA I usually have lte everywhere. But yes there is option to set it to CDMA only

Verizon dropping to 1x and !

Have not seen any mention of anyone really having data issues. However this was my experience once I was rooted. Of course all the proper settings in networks tab. Thought maybe a bad sim as I had it for awhile and cut it for the MXP. Verizon swap no problem. Leave the store and ten minutes later it happened again. While rooted I only had gravitybox and viper installed along with kernel auditor. Uninstalled them no change. So here I am now after a factory restore and no signal drops whatsoever. About to reroot and go step by step to try and trigger again. Besides returning phone for what I think is software related is there anything else I am missing to setup after rooted that is tainting my setup. Maybe a rom would help. But not too many days left for Amazon 14 day return on cellphones. This is last resort as I love the phone. Thanks for any assistance.

Sounds like you're in LTE mode only (even though you may have it set properly in settings) so any time you lose 4G it can't drop to 3G. You need to access Phone Info and change it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL).

It's a hidden menu that can be accessed several ways. I have a direct link to that I created in Nova launcher (widgets > activities) that I restore to any rom/phone I use. It can also be accessed from the dialer (sorry but I don't know the code to enter) or with an app (Google HTC Thunderbolt LTE On/Off app - it may no longer be in the Play store). If I'm not mistaken there's an Xposed Module that'll add it to your power menu.

I will look into it. But right now I don't have any signal issues. I have installed everything but xposed and gravitybox. No issues yet.

I am also having issues getting the 4g to kick over to 3g. I haven't had a chance to try this setting out yet because I have no cell service at my house.

Assuming OP has the same issue I am having then it isn't in LTE only mode. The issue I'm having seems to be APN related. I went camping this passed weekend and the data connection wasn't available which shows a ! in the signal icon. If I went to the APN settings and tried a different APN then it would connect and show LTE. This is a bug similar to what I've seen on some other phones using AOSP systems like CM, etc.

I'm not sure that actually changing the APN is the issue. I think it has more to do with it resetting the data connection state. Sort of seems like a race condition because changing the APN didn't always fix it for me the first time.
I've also never seen a data issue in my hometown. It was only when I was out in the middle of nowhere.
My wife's Nexus 6 never had the issue while we were camping.

LTE/GSM/CDMA is fine. This corresponds to "Global" in the main cellular settings. It simply means it will use either GSM or CDMA depending on the sim card installed. With a Verizon SIM card it is the same as having LTE/CDMA.

Yes but I have tried those settings as well as hidden menu settings. Only one that works is LTE only mode in hidden menu. Just don't understand why all the issues on any other setting. This is first unlocked phone for me but I've never had to change these settings while running stock roms. Is there anything else that I should of done after installing sim? Or even after to get these settings to work.

(Experimental) Enabling 2xCA support support in RN4 - Mido

Mi Guys,
(Standard word of Caution: Risk of bricking your phone! Only proceed with, if you understand what you're doing)
After becoming very happy to see dev supports on our Mido, I was very desperate onto enabling LTE+ (Actual 4G) on our device over Bands 3/5/40 for Indian 4G only operator JIO.
SD625 - Actual Hardware supports it so if software support is enabled theoretically it should work...
Hence I followed this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/how-to/enabled-4g-ca-p2-t3707584)
After using 549755813908 value and restarting the phone, I got very happy to see 4G+ on MIUI9. BUT BUT BUT, Phone actually doesn't aggregate with two carriers still! What happens now is whenever the phone is in Band 3 or 5, this + sign just appears.
After that, I flashed NOS ROM and even now, LTE+ appears, but actual carrier aggregation doesn't happen. I can confirm No Data Speed improvement whatsoever and can confirm same using NSG App. Pls, check Screenshots attached. Any leads are most welcome!

Band 5 has slow speed due to its 5Mhz bandwidth. Remove it and try locking on B3 or B40. I am sure it will provide you faster speeds. B3 has 10Mhz and B40 has 20Mhz bandwidth.
So i removed band 5 from my phone to have better speed and it worked.

ChinaTelecom 4G Band1+Band3
Mido Can not use it

is there any trick to use internet on 3g sim and 4g sim volter for calling only, means if i change default internet to sim other then jio , then jio should get network only for calling

While that correct, the point about this post was to enable CA in Mido. Most of the articles point 625 chipset aggregates stably over Band5 with 3/40. Anyways it doesn't aggregate on any bands, as I explained

Yeah, chipset supports it, but Mido doesn't

So far nope..

May be this is due to locked nv values. When was trying to modify nv values for LTE bands i found that many other values were disabled.

So, what is ur final suggestion? Should we unlock ca and b40 to get 10m+ speeds or shouldn't we?!

By NV values did you mean changing RFNV LTE B(x=No.) CA BC CONFIG..? If so thats exactly what I tried and it didn't work to me

You can try to enable 2CA by following my thread. But it doesn't connect 2CA as expected hence no speed improvement so far.., I have no clue what is going wrong. Thus I created this thread to gather some inputs by some experienced guys who know about this..

With this error hint, I have to close this post I guess. Don't buy Redmi Mid range you are looking to escape carrier congestion

It was proven it doesn't work, since why OP removed all the files.

It's useless even in those bands the jio speed is capped.
FUP=fair usage policy :silly:
