[Q] ATT Infuse on Rogers, need 4g modem/rom

Hi All,
I have an ATT infuse 4G, just arrived last night.
Which modem do I need to get the 3g/4g working on Roger's?
Hopefully something that I can flash with CWM.
I just finished rooting, unlocking and installing CWM recovery.
I now have a "I997RUXKG3" for a baseband, but it is still not getting any data.
Need also a good rom that will work with this setup.
Thanks
Heeter

Bump.
Could really use some advice.
Thanks all.

Try as many out as you can and see what works best!

As long as rogers supports the exact same 3g radio bands as ATT then it should pick it up automatically. If they use different ones then no matter what you do it won't connect to anything other then edge

I'm on rogers and have no problems with any of at&t modems. Just try them all and see which works best for you. I'm currently using UVKJ6. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353209
hope this helps

Hey thanks guys,
I don't have any data (3G, E, H, nothing) So I am gonna try Spider posted.
Will report back in a bit.
Hmmm, you mentioned that all modems should work, maybe there is a setting that I am missing somewhere, 'cause I got no data whatsoever.
BTW, Spidey, Which ROM are you using? And do you have a download link for it?
Thanks
Heeter

Hey I'm using Darky Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354321
After flashing make sure everything is running and then flash InfusionGB-CoreA2 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212485
Then flash this tweak Universal Adrenaline Shot v13.zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236779
Before doing any of this try downloading tweakker https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tweakker&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50d2Vha2tlciJd from market it fixs apn for specific carrier.

Try inputting the Rogers APN look for a search on the forums to find it, it should activate your data.

Thanks for the heads up Spider, Sarius.
Will post back when I check that out.

Hi Guys,
Update:
I flashed that modem that spider provided, and as well I used tweakker.
Now I have a "H+" sign on top,
Is that good?
Heeter

Glad to hear that all is good. enjoy

Isn't it supposed to show 4G or is H+ normal for that modem?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using xda premium

I don't know if H+ is good for my area. Don't know if 4G has even made it to my area (Edmonton). I know rogers has been talking about something called LTE in my area.
My Nexus S always says 3G, but it is 3G only, not a 4G device.

Infuse running spectacularly now......
I don't want to get rid of the original Rom, so I just removed all ATT apps with Titanium.

h+ = hsdpa+ = "4g"

Thanks for that explanation, Entropy
Heeter

h+ is the 4g in infuse 4g but its more like fauxG, really its just marketing, the infuse and many other 4g phones work on the 3g network, lte is the true 4th Gen network and the infuse doesn't support it.
the att kernel seems to get faster data because of tcp buffer changes ( if I got that mixed up with something else someone correct me) but the recent custom kernels have the changes and are all built on Rogers sources. the rom shouldn't matter but you need to use the Rogers apn settings. the modems should all work including modems from the sgs4g
weather you see h+ or 4g depends on the rom. it can be changed in the theme. they indicate exactly the same thing.

US vs EU rom

What is the main difference between a USA Rom vs a European Rom other than language. Im in the US and I have T-Mobile em I loosing out on anything going with a European Rom?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium

there is no difference

Ok thanks

The eu Rom will display "h" at the top vs 4g. Same speed though.

Idk if I'm imagining this...but it seems like the data connection is more stable on T-Mobile Roms.
On EU Roms my data constantly switches between 2G and 3G. While on Tmo Roms it stays constantly on 4G

I've noticed this as well. On the EU ROMs my data was rarely ever connecting. When i flashed a custom T-Mobile ROM, I only get random disconnects every once in a while. Interesting!

Using EE 4G Contract SIM

I put my EE 4G contract sim into this phone, and it cant find network or anything, tried various basebands, the most common working one for UK is V20a so I tried that. Tried V21d which someone had luck with in the UK too.
Im not sure why its not working..

you sir don't know much about phones then. My area has no 4G coverage i live in the highlands of Scotland. It goes to 3G default ( altho at my house its 2G max speed sadly ) wouldn't it go to 3G or 2G does default as it does in the 4G phone?
also its crashing every few minutes, i was told to change baseband but ive tried many, none are stable. Just leaving it locked it will restart after about 30 seconds. Tried new kernel too.

LTE not working for me. (90% SOLVED)

Update: 4/13
I was just able to figure it out and for the most part. The basic problem is that my network mode was stuck on GSM/WCDMA. Here is the solution:
1. go to settings/more.../mobile networks/network operators.
2. Once you click network operators, it should start searching automatically. If nothing comes up, then hit "search networks". FYI, sometimes, it decides to act wonky, so you'll have to exit out and come back in to get it to work. Eventually, it'll show you carriers in the area. Being an AT&T customer in Philadelphia. I saw three results. The first two were AT&T. The last one was T-Mobile. I don't think there is a difference in the AT&T options, but I just clicked the first one.
3. Once that's finished. Go back to the "mobile networks" menu and click on "network mode" and change your preferred network mode to LTE/GSM/CDMA.
4. The last step is change your APN. In the "mobile networks" menu, click on Access Point Names. Click on ATT LTE pta. Scroll to the bottom and click on APN Type. Change that to default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hip. Then hit okay. Hit File and Save. Then just select the circle next to ATT LTE pta. To be honest, just selecting ATT LTE PTA might be all that's necessary. You might not have to edit it.
Now, here's the catch. All of this stuff resets (with the exception of the edited APN) when you restart your phone. But it does work everytime.[/COLOR]
So, I just got the skyrocket (AT&T in Philadelphia) and have the 03-24 nightly on it. But for some reason, I can't get LTE to turn on. I've played with the different APN's. I've flashed the at&t radio on Chopstick's webpage, but no dice. I'm only getting H+.
I even called AT&T to make sure my data plan was LTE provisioned.
The only thing I can think of is that the ROM currently cannot change preferred network mode and mine is stuck on GSM/WCDMA preferred?
Please help.

Re: LTE not working for me.
OT but where in Philly? I'm a NE transplant from SW.
Additionally, I'm on the Rogers rom and have LTE so def not AT&T.

Which radio or baseband version is it?

How old is your SIM card?
When I got my Skyrocket, all network modes except LTE worked.
It ended up being an older version of a sim card that didn't support LTE.
Swapped out for a new one...no issues since.

I doubt that's the problem. I actually flashed back to Stock this morning and LTE worked great. I had speeds around 35mbps. However when I restored the backup of the CM10.1 rom, same issue. Only gettings H+ and speeds around 2mpbs.
THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!!!! I don't get it. Am I really the only person with CM10.1 not getting LTE? It doesn't make any sense.

Would you kindly answer these questions so that I may ascertain whatever is it I'm doing wrong?
1. Are you using an AT&T Skyrocket? or is one from Rogers/others?
2. Are you using the official CM10.1? Which build?
3. What your baseband version?
4. What APN are you using?
5. In the mobile network settings/preferred network mode dialog in settings, what option is checked?
The only thing I can think of is that the preferred network mode for me is stuck on GSM/WCDMA preferred?

Would you kindly just check your preferred network mode for me? In case you don't know, it's on settings/more/mobilenetworks/networkmode.
And just to confirm, you are getting LTE with the 4G Signal notifier, correct?

[Q] Blaze does not get 4G after mod

I have not been able to connect with 4g since I modded Blaze.
I have used many ROMs and settings, searched for weeks to find answer to activate 4g, no joy.
4g works perfectly with stock Rom. My wife has identical phone that easily and automatically picks up 4g sitting next to me while my modded phone only gets 3G or occasionally H+. We have swapped SIMs to confirm SIM and hardware are functional as well as signal reception.
I have uploaded and reloaded many different mods: stable, nightly, paranoid, Pac man, etc.- Same result, everything works pretty well except never 4G
All installs were clean and fresh.
I have seen this question in this forum and other, but no replies/ solution.
Anyone have an answer why the 4G does not work on my modded Blaze?

H+ is 4g it's just displayed differently. Nothing is wrong with your phone.

I suspected, but could not confirm that H+ and 4g were the same, Thank you
P.S. Speeds on H+ with 4 bars are ping 1048ms, 9.19 Mbps Down and 1.87 Mbps down. Isn't 4G faster?

Our phones do not have true 4g. The stock ROM shows 4g more as a marketing gimmick. I'm my experience with the blaze 3g has better ping times while 4g or whatever you want to call it has better speeds. Of course it all depends on location

Thanks again, I guess reassurance is what I needed!

If you want 4G, get an LTE phon
EDIT: Oh I'm sorry, I just realized that H+ is like 3.5G or something. I have the exhibit "4g" and it was H or 3.5G
Either that or H was 2.5G
