Hi everyone.
I've bought my Motorola Xoom 3G 32GB from the internet and it came with the "international" firmware.
3G used to work all fine with any carrier I try until I flashed Tiamat ROM for all the advantages it supplies.
It just can't find a carrier (which is probably US Verizon).
Is there any way I can regain my 3G back?
Well its been a couple days. Has the 3g kicked in yet by itself?
I went ahead and unlocked my zoom yesterday and when it booted back up I didn't have 4g service kinda like you.
I tried finding some APN settings but the xoom wont let me edit them anyways. By the end of the night I went back to try and fix it again and I noticed it had connected again by itself.
I would try calling the carrier you prefer and get them to reset the APN. Moto might do it if you leave out the rooting part.
If its like phones it might be a case of flashing the multiCSC. Because on my old captivate the multicsc was the international unlock you described.

Well, I'm in this state for moths and still didn't regain my 3G back.
And, is there any way I can re-flash the files which determine the carrier alone?
Or alternatively, isn't there a way to manually compile Tiamat ROM with the international build files for universal support?
well you could go back to stock and that should work to get 3g-
I really like this ROM and don't want to go back to original.
That's why I'm asking for solutions '{: (

Look in the Development Section. TeamEos ICS Nightly is now available for 3G/4G...not sure if it supports international 3G yet, but they're working on it. The ICS rom, while still in alpha/beta stage (missing binaries for cameras) is stable and smooth and has tons of functionality.
Thanks okantomi!
I hope this ends my dilemma (fingers crossed).

Do I need to flash a stock kernel?
I've been on Prime 1.6 and other roms and just went to the pure root stock rom and noticed that my baseband says "unknown".
Will this cause issues?
You're using a Transformer. There is no 3G model present. So there is no baseband.
Everything's normal.
thank you....I guess I just never noticed...that's embarassing.

It's all good. That's what XDA is all about, learning from each other
The 3G version of Transformer is expected to come out next month if you're interested. I still don't see a purpose for having a 3G/4G-contracted tablet though.
We all have enough bills as it is already, we don't need another. Tethering ftw!
My thoughts exactly!!
I currently own a droidx on verizon but I'm tired of the monthly $110 so I am switching to t mobile $30 prepaid. I just ordered a unlocked lg g2x running android 2.2 from ebay. It appears to be an amazing phone. I have experience in rooting the droid x installing roms etc. but lg is newish to me.
I assume first I should root the phone then install a boot loader and do a backup.
But after I'm a little hazy about. Do I update it then root it again or is there a one click program that will update and install root from my current version?
I assume tethering works in the same manner. And I can't find anything new about throttle override for t mobile. Does one exist? I mean I typically use 6gb every month now.
Thanks for your help and guidance
Mike
Boot loader is already unlocked. No need to root. Simply install cwm via nvflash. Download the rom you want to use. And install it via cwm. All the info you need is in the dev section.

Thanks, as soon as my phone comes I'll be ready. Hope it goes well
And this will update it to the current 2.3 right?

Yeah if you flash a 2.3 rom. If you want to update the base band you need to kdz flash v21e

Thanks again! Btw what is the sim size so I can order it?

Tethering works fine for me on stock or rooted. No known way to over ride throttle right now. The sim is the standard sized sim it's NOT a micro sim.

I got my phone in this week, it actually shipped with:
version 2.3.3
baseband m6600a-scautnz-2.0.9720t 1[jul 15 2011 10:00:00] mp:trulge_08.09.02r_mdm
kernal 2.6.32.9
software lg-p999-v21e
build gri40
I plan on using the phone on he $30 dollar plan because I plan on travelling and swapping sim cards when I visit my friend in japan among other places. The phone is unlocked and works with a AT&T card I hope it works outside the country too.
This lg is alot different than my droidx and an lg optimus I worked on. between what you told me and what the Guide told me, think I understand. I havent put anything on the phone yet, been waiting for my sim card
Question though, is there a reason to update the baseband? and when/if I do will it interfer with forgien sims?
LG G2X is a "stock android" it doesn't have a overlay or different UI on it... but does have a butt load of LG (poopy) coding, which is why root and a different rom is so good.
there is no reason to change base-band, IMO, from the one you are on. I had the latest base-band (Mar '12) and it has a little pllus to it like the GPS was a tad bit faster, but it had more downfalls, you cant have any other custom rom on it besides the one Kwes is working on and that won't cut it for my personal flavor as it doesn't get the kind of battery life CM7 base roms will get FOR ME.
base-band should not make a difference when it comes to changing sim cards and traveling.
Situation; Moved to Germany, Have a perfectly good AT&T Infuse, In the USA any ROM or Port worked well. The phone is unlocked and rooted, however. I tried JB (ParanoidAndroid) Great rom but not working for some reason here. went back to stock and I am now on Mind of Mac. Good rom but slow, So here is the question what ROM will work with Vodafone and which ROM is best for playing games and such?
When you say that it's not working, what do you mean? You may need to go in and manually change the carrier and configure your data settings. I've found the Infuse to be rather temperamental overseas. I found Nitrality to be helpful in getting me where I need to go in the phone settings, btw.
Also, you probably need to change your kernel. What kernel are you on now? Stock will be slow.
Hi!! I moved here last year. I have run Zeus, emann, uniporn, cm10, and cypher while living here. Just flashed, never changed modems or kernels or anything. Just ran whatever the ROM came with. Also to let you know I have run the phone on T-Mobile, base, and o2. O2 has been the best. Where in Germany are you. I'm in Munich.

Good day people
Im a newb when it comes to radios...
i have rooted / unlocked and installed the cyanogen superlite JB Rom
which i love
Now i'm in canada and traveling to the states in about 2 weeks and i have a prepaid sim cad but its not activated
i have traveled to the states before and used the t-mobile pay by the day plan but could never get any better than 2g connectivity because i have the stock rogers radio...
after doing some reading i have learned that i need to flash another radio... i have flashed different roms etc so i know i can do it...
but im unsure of a few things.
is there a radio that is universal? which will give me 4g / lte on rogers and t-mobile so i dont have to flash when i get off the plane?
if not what are some radios that will work with JB and give me 4G connectivity with T-mobile?
also what radio would i want to revert back to stock rogers / att radio?
i know everyone one says try different ones but im in a different country so i would like to have everything ready to go as soon as i land...
Thanks
Rom...
I am not sure about that specific Rom, but I know with the Official Team Chopsticks version - they list UVLE1 as the radio.
I know that some Roms have modified radios/kernels so check with the Rom Dev for which one he recommends as he knows what he has baked into the rom...
If you are really scared about it, download several and have them handy on your SD card and when you get here you can simple try several and see if one yields better connection speeds for you.
As far as reverting for ATT/Rogers I believe UCLI3 is the latest but might not be the best for your area... UCLF6 was our previous radio and I get good results with both..
Just make sure you make a GOOD nandroid backup and try them all....
Good luck!
tmo uses a different frequency than rogers/att, so the tmo compatible radio has to be flashed, to my knowledge noone modified a rogers/att radio to work with tmo's 3g 4g, im not sure they have lte, theres a few threads on which tmo radio works well with the skyrocket, and remember to add the tmo's apn. need ics radios to work with jb roms. read the links below

I am also in Canada, have had great luck using the T-Mobile card, but unfortunately not with getting my speed up. I did try downloading several different radios and flashing them while in the US.
Unfortunately it went from 2g data to no data or reception whatsoever. So I restored to my nandroid backup and continued on with 2g.
Just wondered though, did you say ics radios are compatible with jellybean? I've been wanting to make the jump to jellybean on Rogers, but wasn't sure if I'd lose my Lte speeds. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

The title says it. My Wind SGH-T959W's (Galaxy S 4G) 4G is not working on the ROM that I am using. The ROM that I am using currently is Octane 2.3.6 for T959V, but all ROMs for that phone work on mine. 4G Only works on a few ROMs that I installed, but they aren't Deodexed (which i need). Is there a way to get the 4G to work on the phone?
Thanl You

If it says "H" next to the signal bar, you're using "4G". The stock Samsung ROM uses 4G instead of showing H, all other ROMs show H.

There isn't an H either. I think the problem is that the ROM has support for only T-Mobile, but I'm just looking that there is a way i could get 4G with Wind.
@getochkn made a thread for the Wind LB6 modem here:

There doesn't seem to be a flashable zip for 2.3.6 but if you update to anything newer than ICS you'll be able to flash it.
I actually recommend you give CM11 a go. 2.3.6 is now 2 years old and your phone is vulnerable to a lot of exploits that Samsung never patched but are fixed with more recent ROMs. KitKat runs amazingly well on this phone and you won't have the bloat that the stock Samsung rom comes with too.

I thought about that earlier, but I predicted that the battery life would be very bad, do you know anything about the battery life?

Check out the CM11 thread, there haven't been complaints about the ROM. There was an issue with a Google Play Services update causing some battery drain, but I released an update a few days ago that had a patch fixing that.
It's a solid ROM, it still amazes me how well it works on this phone .

Try doing a factory reset, if that doesn't work, do full wipes and then reinstall the ROM.

I got 4G working by wiping everything, and installing the rom again. Then I installed gapps and 4G wont work. I did all of that again but didnt install gapps and it works great! :good: The ROM is actually very good for this phone and I will probably keep it like this.
But I still need the gapps for automatic updates, and very easily downloading apps. Mobogenie just doesnt do it for me.
And Candy Crush wont work as when i launch it, it stays at the loading screen then just closes to the home screen.
Any way to fix these issues?
