Hi,i'm italian user with continuum4 rom and i have a occasional loss of gsm signal,on the contrary wcdma work fine;so i have try to change the modem downloaded by this app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936727
but with the modem i have tried (.zsjpg, xxjve and .jpk) the gsm signal is totally reset to zero,the phone doesn't register on the gsm network;it register gsm net only after the CWM jp4 modem reflash,but with the problem previously cited.Why?
Thank you
Ps:sorry for my bad english,i'm italian

i had good luck with the jk4 modem while i was there on vacation over Christmas.
edit: actually, that's what comes with continuum already, isn't it?

Effectively,i've also had the same problem with serendipity 6.3

I am in Morocco , running Phoenix rom with no problem. You should give it a try.

[Q] 3G @ 850mhz?

Is it possible to run HSDPA @ 850mhz on our devices?
Iam trapped on an remote island in australia for work with only one service provider, providing its service at 850mhz. Their are calling it NextG but it isnt anything new, just limited frequencies.. I dont wanna buy a new phone (what is not even possible here) Wasnt able to get any service so far. Have u guys got anything for me?
Can i somhow run it at 850mhz by flashing a custom modem or is it the hardware what sais "no you cant"?

There is also the P6200L which works natively on the 850mhz frequency. Some people have suggested that both of these share the same modem chip which is also supposedly supports quad band.
I've personally tried flashing the modem of the 6200L on my 6200 using odin. But could only get EDGE and not HSPA. I think others have had success though.

Well, that would be enough already.. Going to search for a p6200L modem file, will try it out and report back here! Others had success? Sounds promising... thanx!!
If u dont mind and you still have it, can you upload it?

[Q] Can I flash a Canadian FIDO model to European firmware?

Hey,
Can I flash a Canadian Fido model with the French SFR ROM? It's not a US Droid, so I'm assuming the bootloader is unlocked?
It looks like the Euro model is getting quicker firmware upgrades (they got JB late November, whilst the Canadian model is pending for Q1 2013), so I would prefer to be on that ROM!
Cheers,
Su

Your bootloader is locked, but can be unlocked. I wouldn't recommend going to European firmware though since I've been seeing a lot LTE issues when users switch off of the Rogers ROM. What's another month (or 2-3 weeks) anyways? You might end up spending a lot of time getting your phone to function just how it did on the Rogers firmware.

Hey,
I'm actually based in the UK, but thinking of picking up a Fido RAZR HD because they are much cheaper over there!
We have only one LTE network at the moment, and I'm not on it I'd prefer to have JB and HSPA+ if possible!
I've just come across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35085808
Looks like the Australian ROM is using the new(er) version of JB?!
Thanks,
Su

JB "should" be out at the end of January for our phone claims Rogers. I would at least wait till Feb 1St b4 tinkering

I flashed the Fido Razr HD using an Australian JellyBean sbf with the Rogers modem_signed and fsg_signed files from ICS. Works a beaut, not sure which rom you would use the files for to get it working in the UK though. The Australian rom had minimal bloat and I didn't feel like waiting a month for Rogers/Fido to release JB.

Does the Rogers/Fido ROM have a lot of crapware in it?

Not too much... Nothing compared to Verizon! I saw like 7 or 8 bloatware applications when I first got my phone and was able to disable all of the apps I.don't use. Heck, they didn't even pre-load an ebook software!

Hey I just rooted my fido razr hd and I am wondering where you got those specific files and how you used them when flashing the Australian sbf.
Do you know if you can revert to the fido rom if you ever wanted?
Thanks in advance

I got them from the Fido/Rogers ICS rom. I opened the JellyBean rom with 7-zip and dragged and dropped the files along with an xml file found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2054906
I missed a step when doing it and missed putting the fsg file in there and was without LTE, I was then able to use a fastboot script to flash it after. I have attached the script and fsg file. The modem file can be found in the referenced thread. You also need to have an unlocked bootloader.
I'm fairly certain we are able to SBF to the Rogers/Fido JB when it comes out safely. I would not SBF to a prior firmware like ICS myself....and why would you want to?

Thanks alot for this did you unlock the bootloader with the official motorola site? I don't like the idea of losing all warranty even though the phone seems to be built very nice

I have the fido one,
crapware, honestly about 4 apps, just like myaccount, vvm, ringtones and shop.
But when they sold me my phone it was apparently a Fido/Rogers verison, and i had to return the phone, then i got my new one i never hit SIM CONFIGURATION when it booted and now my rom is completely stock from factory, no crapware whatsoever! not even a fido boot screen.

I did, warranty's are made to be broken right?! lol
If I ever had a defect; I would return it to Fido anyways...they have no idea if it's been unlocked nor would they care to check.

Just a little warning for you ...
if you use a rogers/fido on UK :
you can flash any firmware with any radio file ... but YOU NEVER GET LTE ( NOT SAME BAND IT S HARDWARE NOT SOFTWARE )... and Rogers/Fido phone don't have dual carrier chip (42mbits)... only hspa+ chip (21 mbits)
if i have the choice i prefer pay 50 $ more to get lte or dc hspa ...

Hmm, well I assumed there would be physical hardware differences, but got different info from another thread:
EdwardN said:
Not exactly true. The XT925 firmware is what determines which radios are active. Having 700/800/1700/1800/2100/2600 all active at the same time would drain the battery like woah. Currently you can merge the radio you need into the rom you want to use, and make it work that way.

The DC-HSPA point is a good one though, thanks for the heads up so you're saying the Euro/LatAm model does support it?

For sure the xt925 have two model ... in canada only compatible to hspa up to 21 mbits and lte band 700 and aws ...
European device have dc hspa up to 42 mbis and all others lte band...
In first time this is hardware... after there are the base band... i have test all baseband and i don t get dc hspa with my razr hd

How to get 4G LTE to work with XT925?

Hi,
I just change provider to AT&T using my XT925. I don't see the 4G LTE logo. How do I know it is actually working?

Could someone tell me how to enable LTE in the XT925 on AT&T using stock rom or with any other rom? All I get is H+

Which country did you get your phone from? It may not support the AT&T LTE bands...

It is from Claro PR and the box says it is 4G LTE.
I only get H+ at less than 7 Mbps down and no more than 1mbps up. With my S4 I get between 6 to 22 mbps down and 5 to 12 up.
Any Idea what could be the problem. I'm using the stock ClaroPR firmware posted here and all I get is H+.

Any one there that could help me?

Claro LTE works on 07 band (2600 MHz) and AT&T works on 04 band (1700 MHz).

Yeah there are basically two versions of the GSM LTE RAZR HD - one supports 700 / 1700 / 2100 and I think is only available in Canada, whilst the other version supports 800 / 1800 / 2600, and is available in Lat Am and Europe.
Sounds like you have the second version, which as rafjak says, will not work with either T-Mobile or AT&T LTE

You can't use LTE, it's not compatible.

Just flash a rom with the correct modem. I dont which one has the correct ones for at&t.
Or you can always flash a custom rom.
Sometime ago i was using brazils jellybean when i live in mexico. I just added mexicos modem files to the brazil rom.

I'm a little confused now! So does that mean that the problem could be fixed flashing other modem? If that is correct could some one point out which one should I use to work with At&t 4G LTE?

If the only problem is not having lte then yes.
The modem is flashed since the beggining. So you would need to reflash you rom.
You extract the modem file from what ever rom has the correct file had replace the one youre using. Or simply flash a rom with the correct modem file.
I had the brazil retail rom since it is bloatless from the get go.

Well I can tell that with At&t as provider I get H+ with data.

Can any one confirm if I could get LTE by flashing other modem and what modem should I use?
I just downloaded and tried Rogers Canada Modem and it did not work. All I still get is H+.

I'm using a Fido RAZR HD (original, not reflashed), and it works fine on T-Mobile LTE (same bands at AT&T I think).
Are you sure you have an LTE-capable SIM card? And also your plan includes LTE access? Are you using a direct AT&T plan, and not an MVNO (e.g. Aio).

Yes I'm sure I have LTE card and plan. I understand that T-Mobile Band is completely different from AT&T band... or am I incorrect?
I found this on Wikipedia and it seems that they are not so different. Can someone explain this to me?
Operator Country Frecuency (MHz) Band
AT&T Puerto Rico 700 c 17
AT&T Puerto Rico 1700 d e 4
Claro PR (PRTC) Puerto Rico 700 b 17
T-Mobile PR Puerto Rico 1700 f 4

So, I have LTE that only works on AT&T frequencies... I need it to work on the Europe frequencies 800/1800/2600. Is there a way I can change the modem files without reflashing? I got root, but locked bootloader... :s

I have the same issue. I have phone from Claro PR but I am from Europe. The LTE does not working due to wrong frequency.
Should I upload a new modem driver ? or should I flash my phone ? What is less harmful for my phone
My phone is rooted and I have unlocked bootloader.

Do NOT ever flash the modem or any file from a different device. But my old i9100 gets about the same signal as my n9005, note 3 is possibly a bit better for me
