[Q] Xoom on wrong baseband - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I changed the baseband of my Xoom from GSM/UMTS to USA by a mistake.
No Idea how to reset this to european settings.
The mistake happened using the app "Netzwerk" by Phillipp Mangelow.
Since then there is no chance to get an internet connection.
All settings i can directly access are ok.
The above named app has an error and offers only "USA" as selection of baseband.
Has anyone an idea how to reset this or knows an app which modifies this setting?
Xoom without radio is not even a half xoom
Kind regards,
Willy

Try tiamat new rom, there is a possibility to change it back to EURO mode

Hi,
i use a international version of motorola xoom mz601 in india and have updated to android 3.1 and use the latest baseband n_01.83.35p.
after this update the band changed to USA band 800Mhz? i cannot use any network 2G or 3G and the motorola doesn't show any network operators.
i really want to revert back the settings.now how can i downgrade my baseband and what commands i need to execute also i have tried moving to stock 3.0.1 but no change in baseband.
any apk file that would help me change the band?
thank you.
Please help

If you are rooted, and if you have a previous backup done thru recovery before, just go to recovery, advanced restore and restore system only. It should bring back your baseband.

What I did was go back to a stock 3.1 provider firmware. Being in India I used Original rom. I flashed boot, system, data and recovery. At that point the 3g radio still wont work, Let it do the OTA updates to bring it to 3.2.2 and it will start working, I think one of the OTA updates flashes the modem and or bootloader and resets it to the correct band.
I could then go back to a custom rom and it was all good, I make sure I stay away form the band settings in future.

[Q] Reversing Gingerbread Baseband Flash or Correct Baseband for my Provider

Good Morning,
After flashing the Gingerbread Baseband I no longer am able to register on the network for my provider.
The device is from Rogers but unlocked and being used on the Bell network.
After flashing I realized there may be a different baseband for me to use in Canada (just North of Toronto).
I require some help in locating a Gingerbread baseband that would work or provide me with instructions on how to return to the original baseband.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you kindly,
- Audi2Audi
Did you set the APN manually? You have to do that.
Hello!
APN in Menu|Settings|Wireless & Networks|Mobile Networks|Access Point Names ?
I have set that to: pda.bell.ca
Is there other steps required though?
Thank you for the response!
apn settings is for internet. phone must tower of sim. may be flashing baseband again will soveit because i am tower getting for my country
If you're wanting to go back to stock froyo first you need to visit here to get your original rom... these will also flash the baseband back too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246678
or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155874
then you will need to follow this turtorial in order to flash the stock rom back on (go down to second post that one is in English )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490
Although it is a possibility that the BB hasn't flashed correctly, might be worth trying it again... might also be worth trying a froyo rom to see if you get a signal then, because if you do you still have the froyo baseband on...

Thanks adixtra i always forget about the tutorial of yours
You can flash a .Bin File for Your P920 or P920H.
Ok, now this is getting bizarre hah.
I reflashed the baseband again and everything went normal as it did before.
This time I searched for networks and selected my provider. After about 5 minutes of the device trying to register on the network an error was received that said it was unable to register on this network.
However, when I got to my home screen I was registered on the network. I tested a voice call and it worked. I have tested data as well.
BUT! This is where it gets even more bizarre...The device cycles from 4 signal bars to 2 signal bars to none to 3G (from H) followed by not being registered on the network. Then a few minutes later (sometimes only after a reboot) it returns to 4 bars and begins the cycle again.
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Thank you again for your help!

Good Evening,
Would you be able to upload the KDZ file from your update?
I am having problems with the LG Phone Recovery indicating that I have the most up to date software and halting the recovery process.
Thank you!
- Audi2Audi
Hello,
I flashed an earlier KDZ which allowed me to use the LG Update tool to restore my stock rom.
Thank you everyone for your help and advice.
- Audi2Audi.
it will tell you that but if you use recovery mode and it will download the file then you will have to unplug the phone from usb hold vol+ power then plug it back into the usb and it should download. like i said i used similiar method to flashing baseband
On my windows 7 not detect omap 4 and i can't flash baseband,what can i do?

[Q] Used Select radio band on Razr HD Maxx, now will not work in the UK

I'd been using my Razr HD Maxx xt926 in the UK on the stock ROM 4.1.2 but could not get WiFi hotspot working as it called back to Verizon and told me I was not subscribed.
I unlocked the boot loader, installed TWRP did a backup then flashed with LiquidSmooth 4.2.2 all good so far but could not connect to the cell network and make calls or data. Then I found the *#*#4636#*#* and Select radio band menu... in the LiquidSmooth ROM there are various bands to choose from non or which worked and no European Band. I restored my Standard ROM where the Radio was working then I took a look at *#*#4636#*#* and Select radio band menu and choose USA Band. This turned out to be a bad idea as now I cannot get the radio to work, all Im seeing is the signal meter with a red no entry symbol on it.
Since then I've tried: Wiping / Formatting use TWRP, Going back to LiquidSmooth, Eclipse 1.3, CM 10.1 and various fiddling with the Networks options in setting and this (but its for the US) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2166542
Any help much appreciated as the only other options I've read about are walking in to a Versizon shop where they can flash it back to standard, but I cannot do that being in London :s

After lots of fretting I've finally fixed it by following this http://www.andromods.com/tips-trick...-unroot-unbrick-droid-razr-maxx-hd-xt926.html

what's causing slow network speeds?

I'm running the KitKat+ ROM I found in the development section plus faux kernel, I flashed over jellybean and applied fix v2 so I'm getting no problems uninstalling apps or entering security settings. Thing is when I'm at home or even outside I get really slow network speeds of about 0.4 Mbps down,and in settings-aboutphone-status it switches between hspa and hspa+,but down the road about 350 metres at my kids school I get up to 7 Mbps down,I'm just wondering what version of the moto g is this KitKat+ rom based on,I own the UK retail version and was thinking if its based on a us version would it cause problems with connecting to a UK network or have problems with hspa+ in the UK based on what base this ROM is using,just throwing it out there.
Have you tried setting it to GSM auto (PRL) ?
My previous phone (HTC One X+) was running BlackBean rom and was set to CDMA by default, meant that i had to reset to GSM after every reboot.
I have experienced this also on a UK XT1032 running US Global GSM 4.4.2 - Data works but often slowly and stops entirely for periods of time. I had assumed it was the ROM and I'm waiting for the UK 4.4.2 stock firmware image which I expect will solve it. Perhaps unrelated, but I've noticed Opera Mini will not work over 3G in this ROM, but it works fine on Wifi.
EDIT: I was just thinking; that by fastboot flashing the Stock US firmware image, the UK modem firmware may also have been replaced. That could explain the problems. Flashing back the 4.4.2 UK modem firmware might fix it.
My Baseband version:
MSM8626BP_1032.340.63.00R​
Can someone with a US Global GSM XT1032 confirm their Baseband version? Nevermind, confirmed via google. UK Tesco XT1032 running 4.4.2 also has the same Baseband version.
You could try flashing the UK stock 4.4.2 'NON-HLOS.bin' which appears to include the modem firmware. However if I remember correctly, flashing an incorrect radio firmware is one of the few ways to irrecoverably brick a handset.
Safest bet is to wait for the full UK stock 4.4.2 firmware image and fastboot flash that. In future when you flash a different ROM, i.e CM11, you are likely to use CWM/TWRP and the existing UK modem / radio firmware will remain untouched.
If someone wants to correct me on this, please do.

[Q] Lost 4G after flashing another Stock

Hello guys.
I have a xperia Z3 from VIVO and flashed a rom from OI, everything went well on flashing the rom but after it finished i noticed that i lost my 4G. When i search for network there have a TIM BRASIL LTE but it won't let me register on it.
Do anyone know how to solve that?
Thanks!

Lito, do you think that would help?
Because the problem is that I am not able to register to the LTE network, it's not related to the ability of using internet.
Actually, this is exactly what happens, after i flash the firmware i have 4G but after a few minutes (Between 5 and 10 minutes) i completelly lose connection to the LTE network, even if it's available in the networks list.

Like mentioned before this post, try to flash only the baseband from another region, hopefully that will solve it.

Lito, thanks for the sugestion, i flashed the baseband for the Customized PT and after flash i got the 4G signal for about 30 minutes, but when i rebooted the phone, i completelly lost 4G again, and now in the network lists there is no LTE from TIM. Could it be because i installed an european baseband on a mobile here in brazil?
Thanks agian.

thats weird... are you sure you have the correct APN settings inputted? Also, i would assume youve tried flashing the VIVO's baseband or any other USA roms?
Try the following if you have already done all those: go to dial pad and input *#*#4636#*#* > phone info > menu top right > select radio band > try Australia or USA or what ever pops up > scroll down and make sure LTE/GSM auto is selected or try out the other ones > scroll back up and hit the "run ping test"
if all these doesnt work, i would advise you to go back to the original rom.
just curious, which model number is your Z3?

Lito, now i will complicate a little bit more then. First, the model number of my mobile is D6646 from Brazil with DTV.
Also, i tried to flash the Vivo Baseband and it was worse, i did not install any baseband from USA, just from Portugal.
I tried that on the keyboard, but when i chose USA band i just can't even register on any TIM network.
Also, i tried to flash the original rom, but i can't flash any other firmware apart from Oi. I get a blank error line on flashtool for every other rom i tried to install, so it's even worse
Feel the challenge.
Thanks again for all your help.
flash back to the original ROM if you can, also, how did you flash to the new rom? through recovery or Flashtool? if you see a blank space or what ever, you might not have the correct drivers installed on your computer, especially if youre running Windows 8.
that being said, i dont see D6646 in Xperifirm, i cant tell you what to flash and what not to flash. Without that, i wouldnt advise you to flash anything but the original rom that it came with, you dont want to soft/hard brick the device.

Lito, I tryied to flash the original room, I am using XperiaFirm to download the firmware and flashtool to flash. I can flash the Oi room, but i can't flash the vivo BR, the Claro Argentina, or the Customized PT, all of them results in a blank error, it's not drivers problems, since i can install the Oi firmware and also i disabled the signature on windows in order to install.
Anyway, i solved the problem in order to show another problem. Here is the situation:
I created another APN to use when i don't want to use internet because even with data package disabled my mobile send data to the carrier that charges me, when i deleted that APN the 4G worked perfectly, but now my carrier is charging me the data . Any idea how to block this data comsumption?
Thanks again.

that is extremely weird, never had such issues with any of my android phones. make sure data roaming is not on, the carrier shouldnt be able to charge you if you disabled data
Also, make sure the FTF files youve made with xperifirm and flashtool are correct, like not including the TA files etc..., i would advise you redownload those FTF files and try again, also make sure you have the latest flashtool available.
at this point, you are probably better seeking for a developer or someone who can read codes, make a logcat and see if the flashtool thread is available and ask there. Aside from the FTF files, you are better off asking the carrier why they are still able to charge you in such way. Sorry man, this is as far I can aid you in this matter. GL bud!

Marshmallow update broke LTE?

I have a US version MM LTE Nvidia Shield tablet. After the recent update I don't have LTE anymore on my tablet. I have tried to go into Cellular network setting and change the network type manually but the option is not there. I have also tried putting the SIM card into another tablet to ensure that it gets LTE and it does. (Samsung Note Pro 12.2). I have also hard reset and even flashed the MM firmware to see if it was a software issue. Still can't get LTE. I have verified that it only connected to the HSDPA network in the Settings > About Tablet > Status > SIM Status > Cellular Network Type.
I have also tried to download various apps to change the Cellular network type none have worked as of yet.
Does anybody else who has this tablet have the same issue?
If so can anybody recommend a good work around or good ROM to flash to alleviate this issue. I honestly rather go back to the previous firmware version to have LTE back.
Update
I flashed back to Lollipop and still have the same issue.
Update 2
I flashed the ROW version and able to select LTE recommended from Cellular network settings but still doesn't get LTE.

Can you be more specific about which update you got? Are you using the US LTE firmware version 4.1? What method did you use to flash the firmware and did you use the full firmware or OTA?

I received the Marshmallow 4.1 update from Nvidia. I am using the US LTE firmware version 4.1. Once I realized I was not getting LTE I then reflashed the device using the guide supplied by Nvidia and from the user guide posted on this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tablet/general/stock-recovery-images-ota-library-guides-t2988881
I was thinking of flashing the ROW LTE stock firmware on this device but I don't want to brick it.
