Check by Xperia Firm for Z3 TD-LTE D6653 get update 108 version.
Anyway to know what is updated in this build
Telstra have not even released the Z3 yet.. I'd say though, this means they will release it soon now that Sony has fixed up the firmware issue that was causing poor Z3 network performance on Telstra.

hmm, does the Customized AU version have the 108 update yet? I'm at work and can't access XperiFirm myself.
edit.. sry all, changed my mind.. don't really need telstra bloat and branding without root to allow me to get rid of if [emoji12]

Recently with the delay on 5.0 for the US LTE variant, because of AT&T, I have lost my patience with them. I am looking for a way to rid myself of this BS while maintaining full stock software. I have heard that the variants of the tablet are actually not different, and the firmwares may work on either model. Has anyone tried this? I'm well aware the cell bands supported may change (but my carrier only requires one band, and the WW variant supports one of my carrier's bands). I would love to know if it works, and if I can dirty flash the package to keep my data, since the rom is basically identical.
I flashed OTA posted in general forum for LTE and using it in ATT. Unlocked bootloader, CWM, and root afterwards. I'm not quite sure what you're looking for?

Bricks.
No what i'm asking is if i could convert my device to the WW variant with a firmware flash, and thus avoid needing to manually flash OTA files becauze of delays. I know this isn't going to be the last update delayed on the US variant so i'm wondering if i can just switch the installed software from the US LTE version to the WW LTE version, without bricking.
Yeah.. I am thinking the same thing as well.
If it was possible without bricking the device, I would love to flash the "Rest of the World" firmware on the AT&T set too.

You're welcome to try it with the factory images. If it does brick, you can always restore through the same process. I plan on attempting it soon, but i am waiting on a microsd card.

Theoretically, the only thing that would be changed between builds is the GSM stack. However the OTA between the WW and the US version would not work by default. You'd need to go into the OTA zip and mess around with some of the build.prop info. Which then may cause MD5 mismatches when it is parsed, and would definitely affect subsequent OTA updates because of MD5 mismatches.
If there are Android 5.0 factory images available for the WW ROM you feel would be suitable for your geography, then this would be the safer way to proceed.
I remember when I owned a Samsung Galaxy S2, there was an XDA thread with flashable modems you could push to your device to get better reception in your area. Essentially the differences between the WW and US/CAN versions should only be the GSM stack, and perhaps some carrier-specific bundled app (like the AT&T app for example).
Just a quick update for those who are interested:
Well ... I just did it. Successfully flashed the RoW recovery image on the Shield Tablet LTE set which I purchased from US via Ebay. I'm still in the process of restoring but so far everything seems to be working fine.
Confirmed 2 things during the flashing of recovery image,
Quote:
1) Issues of Cellular/Sim Card on the US LTE set is almost certainly Lollipop firmware related. No problems on FW 4.4.2
2) Problem of Wi-Fi authentication error after sharing files via Super Beam ( Wi-Fi direct ) is also resolved after revert to 4.4.2
I think I will be sticking with 4.4.2 for now with the added bonus of file managers working on Kit Kat.

Thanks for the update. I am interested in this also.
So i'm assuming from your post you got LTE working? Which country are you in? Where do you get the factory images from?
I live in Australia and have the US LTE version. HSPA+ is good but it would be nice to have LTE working on my network (Telstra).

Actually, I don't have a 4G LTE micro sim card with me so I can't verify that at the moment. I am trying to test it out using my friend's sim card and will report back with the results. In my opinion, it's not a good idea to be trying my nano sim on this.
I'm from Singapore and the network I'm on supports LTE Band 3 & 7 and my AT&T Moto X which supports Band 7 works out of the box.
Got them from Nvidia developers website but you have to register for a free account first.

Yep I need LTE band 3 for my network which is not supported out of the box by my US LTE shield. If your network supports LTE Band 7 then your shield should also be able to access your LTE network as BOTH the US and RoW LTE shields support LTE Band 7.
So I don't think your experiment will help me. Is there any way finding out which LTE Bands your shield supports now that you have flashed the RoW recovery image?

I am not really an expert on such matters but let me try and if it's possible to find out the information you are looking for.
Why not try flashing it and give it a go ? There's the bonus perk of removing the AT&T app from the device.

Hi, I am currently using US LTE NVIDIA Shield Tablet in Singapore as well. I have successfully flashed the RoW recovery image to my tablet (since I'm downgrading from Lollipop as well, so I thought I might as well try), but I noticed that there is no baseband file in the recovery image package. I proceeded to flash anyway.
One thing I noticed after flashing is that I still am not getting LTE (half of Singapore is band 3, and my home is under its coverage). So, it's pretty safe to say that the baseband is not affected by the factory image.
However, it might also be that the latest recovery image doesn't cover the baseband, and it might be included in the previous updates. So, I'm trying to download the previous recovery images and see whether there are baseband images are there.
EDIT: baseband image is not in there. The baseband version is definitely still for North America (e1729-nala.4.05_0.6.3 @786934, notice the 'na' part?).

Sorry I don't really understand ... the RoW software cover for both Band 3 and 7 since the UK edition supports these LTE bands as specified in Nvidia FAQ.
You should still be able to get Band 7 coverage which the NA edition supports as well, right ?
Am I missing something ?

Thank you. That is exactly the information I was looking for. Unfortunately there is no point flashing the RoW recovery image if you wish to change your baseband (and then use different LTE bands like I want to).
Is there anywhere I can download the RoW baseband images? I remember they were readily available for my nexus 4.

As I said, the image doesn't include the baseband image. So, no matter what you flash on the rom side, it won't matter.
Also, about band coverage in Singapore, it's not a full overlap. Some areas are band 3 (south and west), while some band 7 (North and East). I know this from an M1 engineer friend. So, yeah, no LTE band 3 in this factory image here.
But not all hope is lost. If one day Nvidia decides to update baseband, it will then definitely include the baseband in the OTA or factory image. So, possibility of switching is still there.
Was there a baseband update with the latest software update (2.0)?
The factory images for 2.0 have still not been released.
In another strange twist when i turned on my tablet this morning I was surprised to see my US shield had LTE here in Australia. Which means only one thing - Telstra are expanding their LTE spectrum in my area!

I downloaded the OTA manually and checked the content. It doesn't have any baseband update. Also, just to confirm again, I actually re-installed Lollipop. The baseband is still unchanged (only the suffix @ part changed, but I think it's just some marker).
I checked wikipedia, and it seems that Telstra has band 3 and 28. There's a good chance that they switched your area's band to 3, or they simply add band 7 (the latter is, of course, ideal).
I read that Nvidia is preparing an update to the existing Lollipop system. Hopefully they will include a baseband update, then we can probably make the jump to the RoW ROM. For now, I'm sticking with the US ROM first.

Okay ... I see that you are not able to get Band 3 coverage. But just to confirm, you are still able to get band 7 4G LTE coverage on the ROW Rom right ?
My phone 4G LTE is on Singtel, getting pretty good coverage island wide on Band 7. Unfortunately, it's a nano sim and I'm hesitant to test it on the tablet in case in gets jammed inside the slot.
So long everything works fine, I'm sticking with ROW Rom as it will probably not have none of the nonsense whereby it require AT&T approval before release.
Sorry to trouble you on another matter, I have reported this 2 issues to Nvidia customer support but just want to check if it's just my set or an common problem.
1) Cellular data connectivity will not return after enable aeroplane mode. SIM card is subsequently not detected.
2) After sharing files using Wi-Fi direct ( SuperBeam app ), Wi-Fi connection doesn't auto reconnect due to failed authentication. Require manual intervention.
What I can say is this 2 issues no longer occur once I downgraded the software from Android 5.0 back to Kit Kat 4.4.2

According to Nvidia faq, the North American version that works on AT&T, T-Mobile and Rogers on LTE bands 2, 4, 5, 7, and 17 and HSPA bands 1, 2, 4, 5.
I see that this article ( http://www.cnet.com/au/news/telstra-expands-its-4g-services-including-the-700mhz-band-trials/ ) states that Telstra is conducting trials for 700mhz (Band 17) in your area. Maybe this is why you have begun receiving 4G LTE reception in your area ?

I initially thought it may have been the planned 700mHz expansion by Telstra in my area HOWEVER Telstra's 700mHz expansion is actually Band 28 (not Band 17) and my US shield does not work on Band 28 out of the box. Although LTE Band 17 and 28 both use the 700mHz spectrum they both use different parts of that spectrum so are not compatible.
What I think has happened is there is some LTE Band 7 coverage in the middle of town here which is where I was when I got LTE coverage today. As I understand it Telstra has some limited LTE Band 7 coverage with most of the LTE network being Band 3........ so I'll still have to wait until I can flash a RoW baseband which will hopefully give me Band 3.....
I currently own the Galaxy S7 edge UK (unlocked) unbranded handset, however my network is with Three. Supposedly you need to have bought the handset from them to have 4G Super-Voice (VoLTE/HD-Voice) enabled, so I'm wondering if anyone can help me source the firmware. I'm sure this will be useful to anyone else on the Three network with an unbranded handset.

Latest BTU firmware has it as default (3 sim on unbranded S7 Edge).
Use the Samfirm tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647).
1. Set "Model" as SM-G935F and "Region" as BTU.
2. Check "decrypt automatically".
3. Extract the decrypted file with WinRar or similar, then use odin to flash.

No need to lock will stay default unless it auto changes by itself but for me its okay and 4G voice works fine as default like on all devices
There is no need to flash H3G firmware any more. I have returned back to stock unbranded volTE works.
Just use smartswitch to revert back to stock firmware!
Sorry for the bump but does anyone know what settings were changed on the S7 root directory to allow unbranded devices to connect? I looking at modifying the files myself for the 6P as Three don't seem to be taking the rollout seriously for unbranded devices - so far the only thing I've found that relates to H3G is the mcfg_sw.mbn that states "No VoLTE" within, though the Swedish H3G configuration allows VoLTE, so I'm going to try modifying that unless anyone around has any ideas?
I've got a three s7edge couldn't get volte to work ended up flashing btu firmware and there is it listed in Network and it's working when there is no coverage as I get a volte displayed along with the empty signal bars

Some folks have noticed that the radio's included with marshmallow remove band 12 from the list of available lte bands. I've created some flashable radio zip's that allow you to go back to the radio for 5.0.2. This has been confirmed to restore band 12 functionality while still allowing you to run marshmallow. No additional changes are required or expected. It ONLY updates the radio. To my knowledge t-mobile is the only provider using band 12. I've included some others for folks having connectivity issues on variants other than the 6045i. Please report in if it restores your band 12 access. The flashable zip files are at: https://mega.nz/#F!u0UBAICD!DzKYnswfK5J6dw5WQNgEDg
These should be flashable via TWRP and for the 6045i at least I've also included the 6.0.1 radio so you can go BACK if you run into any strange issues. Hope it helps someone.
*update* I've added a flashable zip named 6045X_Backup_Modem_to_sdcard.zip to the folder as well as a readme with general instructions for people wanting a radio not already in the folder. Basically you get someone not yet on marshmallow from the same country you are in to run that zip in twrp and it will put a copy of their modem at /sdcard/modem.img. Get that file to me and I'll make a flashable zip for it.

First of all thanks for this, but it do not work for me or other users especially from Spain, in other zones from Europe it works and i and more other users of the 6045Y versions start thinking that this could be a problem for Spanish versions, so i think we could do a update zip of the modem/radio especially for Spanish users and to do this it will be great if you could help us with the process to create it.

This radio zip is working for some people in Europe but not for Spain.
I'm not trying to come back band 12, i'm trying to come back the band needed in Spain (if it's possible).

The band 12 question was strictly on my part...they were always focused on getting lte working again. To my knowledge only T-mobile (in the USA) uses Band 12. I am curious if T-mobile uses Band 12 anywhere outside the USA though.

Having mediocre reception since upgrading to stock MM in USA and I think this could resolve my issues.
The thing is I've never rooted the phone, so I am guessing I have to revert to 5.0.1 and then root the phone and then upgrade to MM and then flash the modem?

Well..technically you don't have to be rooted to flash twrp and that's the only requirement to flash the modem zip...the problem you will have is I've heard mobile q is flashing marshmallow for the 6045i now.....so you'd have to flash the panasonic eluga switch software to get back to 5.0.2...flash twrp....then upgrade to mm using one of the rom's in android development so they won't wipe out your twrp. I saw at least one person say the factory rom won't wipe out your twrp either but I wouldn't risk it.
Down here in the Tampa bay area band 12 is everywhere for cricket wireless it's literally the only lte band I am always on from Tampa to spring hill. I cannot risk using an mm build till I know for sure I can get band 12 back on the cricket 6045O. No complaints about the cm12.1 build marionette has going tho it's great. I'm still tweaking the CPU settings to get the bat life up a bit more. I'm looking at around 5-6h sot right now which includes running summoners war for 2-3 of those hours so not bad for 5.x

The band 12 question was strictly on my part...they were always focused on getting lte working again. To my knowledge only T-mobile (in the USA) uses Band 12. I am curious if T-mobile uses Band 12 anywhere outside the USA though.
How's your phone? You didn't reply to my other post asking.

Cricket uses band 12 heavily in Florida for sure, and I thought cricket was part of att network.
Quick question famewolf, can I get the files necessary for modem flashing for the 6045o from the stock unrooted backup I made of the stock firmware? Its a backup made right after I activated the phone using the instructions from the thread in this forum. Boot and system image twrp options I believe.

A 6045O modem flashable zip is already available in the modem folder. The folder now includes two additional flashable zips that allow you to back up your OWN modem to /sdcard/modem.img and the 2nd zip will flash it back to the modem partition. This should take care of just about any scenario. Details in the Readme.txt in that folder.
As you stated however, TWRP only does system and boot by default...it's not going to handle modem, aboot, spl, hyp, rpm, tz, etc.........

Hey that is good enough for me, I'll play with it next time I get 2 days in a row off, thanks for all the volunteer service you do for us. I definitely would not have got this phone if not for the epic work of the idol 3 xda community!
On cm 12.1 marionette this 129 dollar phone performs as well or better than my coworkers high end stock Samsung and apple devices, heh. And they spent crazy money on them or have 2 year contracts with added monthly phone payments, ouch!
Well Alcatel gets props too, the design of the phone is solid and the display really is beautiful for an IPS display. I originally was dead set to get something with an amoled, and while sitting next to my buddies s6 his color still 'pops' more but the brightness is almost identical and the color on this thing looks much more natural and realistic.

Hello everyone
I'm anup yesterday i brought a Xperia X Compact through eBay India it's a (US imported Version)
I had already flash the UK firmware but VoLte doesn't work.
Even my friend had Xperia X Dual on which VoLte work pretty well.
So there is anyone who known how make VoLte working on Xperia X Compact there is any specific region or country which supports VoLte.
I think (Germans firmware) supports VoLte anyone conform that.
Because Xperia concept test is available only for Germany
Please help
I've got the same X compact (US firmware) from ebay India.
I flashed the Central Europe firmware to keep the LTE icon.
Fingerprint enabled but VoLte lost.
Central Europe doesn't support VoLte.
Not sure about German firmware.
Thanks brother do you have any solution for VoLte
Nope! Not yet.
This is VoLte setting for Android device: *#*#4636#*#*
Enter this and select phone info. You will find VoLte setting. I had tried turning it on but again it got turned off by itself.
Check whether it works for you or not.
