[GUIDE]Remove baseband restrictions

EDIT:
@devilsshadow has done a more useful guide in this thread based on the discussion here so this thread will be closed!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Hi all,
seems that some guys where able to remove software based baseband restrictions from SnapDragon modem chips so it is possible that you use your phone in every band that is supported by your hardware. In that post a driver for OnePlus is linked too For worldwide travellers this seems to be quite comfortable.
In the quoted post you'll find the necessary drivers for our OPO and in the first post you'll find the whole procedure.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55395908&postcount=153
BE CAREFUL!
BRICKING OF DEVICE IS POSSIBLE!

So, what bands are available after doing this? Are there any unmentioned bands?

Just take a look at the first post in the thread. Some bands are restricted through software. There is a screenshot before & after unlocking. There are a lot of LTE frequencies which are unlocked etc. It depends on the modem of your phone.

I believe this is only worthwhile for the Chinese OPO to unlock the worldwide LTE bands to be able to use it in the US.

Possible, I can't prove that because I've got the international version. But as far as I know many here in the forum are using the chinese version of the OPO so perhaps it could be useful.

No, worries. I add all important threads to my index.

Did anybody succeed enabling 800 MHz LTE for Europe?

Thanks for posting this I travel all over the world and this will be very helpful to me. I will try this out after work and see what bands I am able to access.

This doesn't matter for OnePlus One , we don't have restrictions in the baseband. You can use it worldwide without doing this thing.

If you have the Chinese OPO, you do have restrictions (aka those who bought the phone without a invite)

how do you get into the relevant diagnostic/debugging mode with the 1+1 .
Download mode is easy, +vol and power with usb connected, or +/- with usb connected but not diagnostic, the process described doesn't work in download mode.

*#*#4636#*#*

That's not diagnostic mode though is it ? That's just the test app.

But would this allow to have the extra LTE channels? Some say it doesn't have the antennas for it but not sure and it might be licensing stuff.

From what I've read diagnostic mode is ROM dependent. Can anyone with a stock CM11 S try the following from phone:
*#*#8778#*#*
On my crdroid variant this magix sequence does not work. Regarding orgingal thread the phone should just go off screen without any error after typing this numbers.

Seems to do nothing on my CM11s.

None of the existing short codes work. We have download mode by pressing both vol buttons while the device is powered off and connected. This mode is close but it's not quite the same.
Which is why I asked, I've tried all the other published ones. Someone in the other thread said they'd got the devices showing up in device manager, but not how.

Yeah, I can't get past the 3rd step either. And step 3.5 is a bit confusing as I don't understand what I'm supposed to use to enable the diagnostics port. Any help would be appreciated.

Someone got these problem? Please respond. Thanks

As "man007cgr" said try to downgrade to 4.2.2 via CWM he says 4.4 cant see COM ports.
you can find it here: needrom.com

Thanks. I give it a try right now

You are welcome
CWM posted on needrom is in chinese
but you can find english one here in forum.
Let me know if it works...

IT'S WORK. THANKS, YOU SAVED MY LIFE :crying:
Yeah and I just flashed the stock indian firmware via GNQC :good:

You are welcome!
Good you manage it! :good:

*#*#452789#*#*

Just a warning!
I just want to warn you about the 4.4.2 update of the india gionee e7 rom. It seems a little suspicious. I personally stay away from it as it charged 9 euros from my sim card without any reason. And not only that, but also it closes the COM ports to prevent you from flashing another firmware.

Thanks for letting us know!
You were charged for data traffic or instantly cashed you?

He is charged because this rom has 2 programe that sends automatic messages and need to Be deleted.
Salestatistic and
Salestrack
You need Root for that.
Also You can shut them down by modify build.prop lines:
ro.gn.oversea.salestrack.gi=yes
ro.gn.oversea.salestrack.gi=no
You should do both for safety.
The messages are sent to
00918527214747
00919880938662
Also,for fun,You can change those numbers with any so the messages will Be sent to that number.
The messages contains phone imei,operator code and other things about phone.
The messages are being sent every time You power on your phone and yes,IT charges your phone bill.
Sorry for my bad english.

Good to know, thanks!
So installing the 4.4.2 ROM without sim card will be safe.
You just remove that spyware and put the sim back...

What about this?.. anybody knows something about that?
Could be this a fix for the COM port error on 4.4 kitkat?

I'm on contact with Gionee India.
I talked with them to communicate the problem of SMS and this is what they replied:
"Hi, in this software we have introduced new activation logic.
As per new logic phone will continuously send activation message until
phone will not receive reply message from server.
Note our Server never reply on ISD number that why its happing.
Pls ask user to send a message which contain below word from another phone
to his Gionee phone.
1. Gionee
2. Toll free number 18002081166"
Course is a toll free number, but from Spain, where I am, believe me not. Someone living in India, dare to try?

have you fixed your issue mate?

Thanks Nathan. Nothing related, but I sent you a PM cause I have a problem since latests updates where I am stucked with ipv6, if I switch to ipv4, no data at all anymore (Bouygues telecom)
Did you received the PM ? I would like to know, if possible, if you are on ipv4 with bouygues and with data ok ? Eventually share your bouygues APN settings ?
Thanks a lot !

It's because it's still early test version... Should be sorted on stable rollout.

Check Play Store settings. Is your device certified?
Check Google Pay. Are you allowed to use contactless payments in shops?

I used this method successfully with what I assume is a UK device (bought on ebay) a week ago.
I used VPN for St. Petersburg as Moscow wasn't available.
None of the issues that you mentioned.... I usually factory reset after a major upgrade but haven't this time as the rom is running flawlessly.
Have you done anything other than update, factory reset perhaps? Seems strange that only you appear to be having these issues.

Yes...and Netflix. There's something in the coding that some apps see as a circumvention of security (root).
We know it's not a true root...no root checking apps detect root and luckily my banking app can detect root in any scenario, but it is working (I've come to this phone after years 6 years of custom ROMs), but something is missing from this firmware.
I mentioned in another thread, that I have been in touch with Google about this an they have suggested that Oppo may not have submitted their software for verification which is leading to this error.

Actually in the Google play settings Mine is not certified.but does it matter? however I don't use Google pay. I think this certification is a matter of days .this is a may be caused by regionalization by wave of updates. the next security update should be fixed.wait and see .
Oppo is a serious company Chinese Group BBK (with Vivo, OnePlus and Realme) ...

Just updated mine as well. Didn't even need to change device language, just vpn and location on russia did the trick

New update ColourOs 7 with Google protect certified
Now proposal of a new update and this without VPN, after installing this update the call is now certified Google protect ...

After update c11 - the device says google play is certified but you still cant use it for Google Pay.

Wow they pushed that updates very fast - downloading now as well. If it fixes the play store issue thats at least something good. Hopefully the google pay issue is worked out quickly enough
