[Q] Can't flash stock

Hi,
Recently, a relative of mine purchased an Unlocked AT&T S4 from a local shop here in Canada. I found a bunch of bloatware from AT&T and some of the settings on the AT&T are different from what I have here on Rogers. Since he has the SGH-i337, I figured I can flash the Rogers SGH-i337M ROM no problem. I attempted to do through Odin, but I keep getting this message on the phone:
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
and I get this message on the computer:
What can I do so I can get the Rogers ROM onto his phone?
Android Version: 4.3
Baseband version: I337UCUEMK2
Build number: JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2
Thanks

Even though you live in Canada still doesn't mean anything even if you get it to “unlocked" because unlock means SIM UNLOCK. He has the i337 “at&t US version" Only the i337m “canadian variant" will only be able to flash Canadian ROMs unless he has the phone on MDL baseband or a Google edition phone. The boot loader is locked on the i337 so there is no way you can flash anything besides the stock Rom that comes with it... However if he's on MDL baseband he can flash most whatever he likes if it is mf3-mk2 you need to look into safestrap. Do more reading and researching before your friends phone turns into a paperweight.

[Q] Baseband, Modem, CSC...

Hi Guys,
On my Galaxy S5 (900F), this is what's installed at the moment:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Quick questions:
Is the Baseband the MODEM?
How do I update only this? Is it possible to take it off a ROM?
I want to upgrade it to NG2.
thnx

Baseband is the radio (aka modem) version. The radio can be separated from a full firmware package and in the past, some people have done this, preferring to change or update only the radio. Android 4.3 made flashing more restrictive and the bootloader will now prevent doing this for most carriers now. So if you wish to update the radio you will likely have to flash a full update or stock firmware package.

- Yes. Baseband, Radio, Modem and CP (Cellular Processor) are referred to the same thing.
- To update only the baseband: Download the appropriate firmware, extract and get 2 files: modem.bin + NON-HLOS.bin. For detailed instruction how to update the baseband, please refer to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...900tuvudnf4-extracted-stock-firmware-t2834398
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help

Galaxy S4 i9505 4.4.2 Wi-Fi Fix?

I live in Pakistan and no official firmware is present for this country. And also I don't know which region firmware was installed on it because I did buy GT-i9505 used from a shop.
I wanted to upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4.2 hoping that it will fix the WI-Fi issue present in Galaxy S4 I9505, so I flash 4.4.2 stock rom (Newzeland NZC) with ODIN.
This is the file I Flashed :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d...CGNH2_NZC.zip/
The issue of Wi-Fi that was in 4.3 was it Wi-Fi Button was not enabling and was grey out(light green color) when I enable it.
So for fixing that, I flash stock 4.4.2 rom.
I read this thread present here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2192025
But I couldn't decide which file(modem) to download and flash via odin in (Phone) Tab.
P.S: Is there any other way to fix the wi-fi or the only way is to flash any of those modem? Please help !
I have a doubt that when I synced Gmail and samsung account caused the wifi to not work i.e turn the toogle grey/light green.
Here are my current screen shots of totaly stock rom which I'm using. I have not even applied root.

NK1 Modem for Korean Note 3 (N900L)

Hi guys
I have a korean Note 3 (N900L) running on Omega v23 custom rom developed for N9005 version. When i initially got this phone it has NK1 baseband version which was a bit weak in receiving signals so i decided to try out other modems. After a very brief research, I found NG1 modem and flashed it but the result was even worse than the previous modem. Now I cant even get messages and make phone calls. Although my signals are full and phone is registered on network but still.
Apart from the signal issue, the rom works just fine so the problem is with the modem file.I downloaded NK1 Modem for N9005 version and tried to flash it via odin but the flashing fails during file writing ( I guess i cant flash some other version baseband ) If anyone can guide me to the right direction or give me a link for NK1 Modem file it would be great. I know NK1 is out there somewhere for this model because I saw it flashed when i get this phone. I just need to find it. any help will be much appreciated.
P.S: I have attached a screen shot for reference

Difference between L720VPUGOD2 and L720VPUFNG2

Hey guys i recently updated my s4 to the new OTA lollipop and it came with so many issues that it basically rendered my phone useless. I looked at the baseband version and it says "L720VPUFNG2," when I looked up the update version on google it comes up as "L720VPUGOD2."
Just curious what the difference is between the two. I am hoping that maybe the OD2 version would solve my issues with the phone. Otherwise I will be downgrading for now.

OD2 is Lollipop, NG2 is KitKat, and because the baseband is still NG2 I am guessing something went wrong with the update. I would Odin the OD2 tar. By the way, DON'T TRY TO DOWNGRADE YOUR FIRMWARE. You can flash older ROMs but do not try to Odin an older version.
