Hello... I'm new here. I bought the new n8020 LTE (France). I saw that we can make calls with this tablet but my operator SFR have blocked this function. I know i can use SFR Libertalk or CsipSimple app but i really want to make this tablet as a phone. Any suggestion? I'm already rooted and have already test a lot of firmwares. thx

Dear all,
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S2 from Swedish 3 Network.
Obviously the phone is bind to the carrier and I rooted the device and unlocked the SIM and bam! I got the phone working.
I wanted to test 3G Services from Vodafone and before I jumped on to that part something in between caught my attention..
Frimware update with Gingerbread 2.3.4.
Initially when I got the phone it was on PDA:XWKF4 PHONE: NEKF2 CSC: HTSKF1 with Gingerbread 2.3.3 with lengthy 3 Network boot loader.
The firmware that interested me is PDA:XWKI4 PHONE:XXKI1 CSC:Multi with Gingerbread 2.3.4. I flashed and the phone and it is back into sound operating mode without any hassles.
Now I decided to jump on to 3G testing part. I called Vodafone Care and they advised me to send an SMS to 144 mentioning ACT 3G which I did. I got a confirmation saying that 3G is active.
However, here comes the problem part. Whenever I turn Data Network mode all I see is "E" with up and down arrows. And when I go to Phone Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> Network Type it says Edge.
Am I missing anything here? To add ambiguity I didn't test 3G with the previous version of firmware. One thing I'm sure about is 3G worked on this phone before on 3 Network.
Any inputs greatly appreciated..
Regards,
A.
Fixed: No 3G on Samsung Galaxy S2 Vodafone India
Well..
My problem resolved..
I flashed my SGS2 with below firmware combination:
PDA:ZSKI3 (Hong Kong)
PHONE:XXKI3 (Hong Kong)
CSC:INU(India Localization)
And now I have H+/3G whenever I turn on Data Network Mode.
At last.. I'm at peace.. Device fully functional..
Regards,
A.
Hello Arun,
I too am having issues connecting to the 3G network of Vodafone in India. My SGS2 is from AT&T and I was able to root it & unlock it and its works fine with the call and other stuff. I flashed the UnNmaed v1.0.4 ROM and its been pretty stable.
I looked up at the CSC code on my phone by dialing in *#272*<your IMEI># and its shows as ATT. Can you please enlighten me on how to change the CSC to INU like yours so that I can access the 3G network here.
Thanks
Hey,
I'm running an SG 2 I bought in Mumbai about 6 months ago with the following stock firmware -
PDA: KE8
Phone: KE2
CSC: INU
Gingerbread 2.3.3
I activated 3G on Vodafone a few days ago and they insist its active from their end. Been thru the manual settings routine and restarted the phone a dozen times, but it refuses to latch onto 3G. Data works, but only EDGE, like you've mentioned in your original post (the E with the 2 arrows).
Any suggestions how I can get on to 3G? This is frustrating, and I'm positively a noob as far as rooting/flashing ROMS etc goes.
Thanks!
Hi all,
First time poster, long time follower!!
I'm hoping someone can help me here because i have a real headache with my galaxy s2.
When i got it at Christmas everything was perfect. But two weeks later i suddenly lost my 3g. Phone works fine on 2g (except for the slow speed), but i contacted my carrier 3Ireland and they said everything is fine on their end. My APN is perfect, i've tried toggling airplane mode, entering codes, data package checks. You name it and i've tried it.
When i force my phone to select 3g it looses all signal and i have to restart my phone and quickly go back into settings to choose 2g or i will loose signal again.
This is the following on my phone.
Android version 2.3.5
Baseband version I9100XXKI4
Kernel Version [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKI8
I've being reading about modem/radios lately, is that just the baseband? Could that be my problem. I'm a noob at this kinda thing.I just want my 3g to come back.
All help is greatly appreciated. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks.

Hey,
just a short question, to which i couldn't find an answer..
is it able to enable and use wifi calling on my sensation in germany?
thanks for any answer.
Sure, if you are a Tmobile USA user. I get the feeling you are not however, and so unfortunately it will not work.
Hey xda!
I'm getting a SGS3 soon, and I was wondering if getting the i9300T model (as i've only been able to find T models) is worth getting, especially if I'm considering installing a custom ROM (cyanogen) to then use it only for calling and texting via my OPTUS network (SIM), would I have to flash another modem on to it JUST to get the network to work (e.g. texts and calls), or would I only flash another modem on to improve the 3g internet speeds.
As i'm not looking to use 3g Internet on my i9300T with Optus SIM, would I be good to go without flashing any modem on?
I'm kinda new here, so please go easy on me if I've mistaken anything,
Any help or guidance would be appreciated

Hello from Tokyo.
I recently went to Korea, and I purchased a Garnet Red Note 10.1 (SHV-E230L).
This is a LG-U+ carrier branded model for use in Korea, but is unlocked to use in other countries.
It has LTE at 850/2100 which matches my carrier in Japan (Ntt-Docomo)
I have a Note 2 from Docomo, by the way.
OK......I swapped my sim card....and my 10.1 worked.....I received 3G and 4G, however, the signal keep dropping in and out every 15-30 seconds.
I cannot maintain a proper data connection. (yes I added my proper APN to the phone...mopera.net)
SO.....what should I do?
I looked trough some of the CSC files.....and they are loaded with information about Korea and LGU.
I am at a loss....but I want to be able to stabilize my connection. WIFI works fine.
I wish there was a vanilla stock rom for this, or a way that I could make one or clean this one out. I do have the SHV-E230L rom from Samsung, but no ideal what I should modify other than CSCs.
Do I need to do something to the radio possibly?
Progress made....but
Today
I copied all my CSC information from my Docomo Note II and put it inside my Korean LGU+ Note 10.1
It now works ALMOST works perfectly.
3G works!!! Is stable!!!
One problem.......
4G/LTE
When 4G is on.........I cannot make voice calls. The phone bars are gone.
What do you think?
Possible wrong modem for your location / network .

Funny you should mention that. I was just researching about flashing the modem only.
Any advice on that? Meaning.....will I need a modem specifically for a Note 10.1 or a specific model like mine SHV-E230L?
The note 10.1 is not sold in Japan yet. SO I am not sure how to proceed.
O the other hand.........I deleted all CSC XML files today...........and now everything seems to be working great!!
I still need to test on the 4G/LTE network. My house is only 3G.
Hi All,
Meanwhile i do have my Hisense A2 for nearly 2 Month. I am a TeleXXX Customer and was having no problems with connectivity for my older Smartphones.
With my Hisense A2 it isnt possible to get a Dataconnection higher than 2G and all without working SMS. WLan is working very well.
So i was searching for Help in the Worl wide web.
I tried the correct APN from my Customer.
I was resetting my Phone.
I upgraded by the English/Chinese Version, and downgraded back to L126.1.6.03.09.00, thanks to Baistan.
Meanwhile i am near lost by find my Failure.
I rooted my MDA Innovation, my S2, my S5, my Ipad...., but my Original Hisense A2 wouldn`t work.......
Is there anything i can do, to get it work correctly? Is there another Thread i havent found?
Are there different Versions of that Phone, or do i have to upgrade the Baseband? (937_GENNS_PACK-1.79261.1.82796.1 (Kernel 3.18.24))
Thanks for Your Patience and, maybe, Help.
LTE and UMTS use different frequency bands and modulation types in different countries.
The A2 was made for the chinese market, and may not work well or at all on 3G/4G in other countries.
I'm kind of in the same boat, I'm using the A2 in Switzerland and can only use 3G but not 4G.
You didn't say which country you're in. Your phone may work with a different operator but I wouldn't bet on it.

I have found A2 works on ATT at 4g and 3g but only 2G for T-Mobile in US.
