[Q] Changing from TD-SCDMA TO WCDMA

I bought China made BBK Vivo XPlay model X510t which is running on TD-SCDMA. My country is using wcdma and thus I have problem with 3G. I successfully rooted my phone and replaced the Vivo XPlay X510w ROM. With the new ROM, all phone features running well but the phone still running on TD-SCDMA.
May I know in what way, I can get it changed to WCDMA?
Your valued advice is very much appreciated.
Thx/ Jim

Yeah you'll have to return it to seller and ask for a WCDMA version. There's no way around that.

Nope. Snapdragon 600. Still it have TD-SCDMA modem and i don't think there's really a way around it. Only replace it with WCDMA model.

like xiaomi mi3, this phone come with 2 versions, one is wcdma, another one is td-scdma, td-scdma only works in china. both versions are equipped with snapdragon 600. unless there is a way to flash radio @ baseband like nexus, lg @ samsung phones, i cannot see any possiblities to change it.

wcdma&scdma
Hello everybody,
This is my first message.
I have the same problem with a Jiayu F1. The mobile runs with MTK 6572 chip and it supports both base band, therefore, i am sure that is a software trouble.
I have installed the WCDMA ROM and I lose the IMEI and the radio identification file.
Is there any possibility to unlock of the last option (OEM-specific info/setings) of Phone Information showed by MobileUncleTools? I think that the solution is here hidden.
Thanks...

im late read this post...

I have lenovo golden warrior s898tp it is also td-scdma and mtk chipset
That is mtk 6592 using mtk uncle but it doesot show option only show td-scdma bands
What can i do

I have a solution, but it demands our collective efforts. Both MTK and snapdragon 600, 410 MSM 8916 has capability to process the WCDMA frequencies, but the phone makers disabled the function. Radio flash of the chips will enable the 3G, 4G mode of WCDMA. So lets work and see if there would be a simple way to do that. If you got answers whatsapp me on +2348064782500

[Q] Which Moto G version should I get ?

Hi to everyone,
A friend of mine is travelling to the USA in a few days, and I will ask him to bring me an unlocked Moto G. Now my questions are:
1) Which are the diferences between the US and the International versions in regards to the software updates?
2) Does the US celullar version receives the android update before the International one ?
3) If I bought the international version, would I still be able to flash the GPE rom in it ?
Thank you in advance

1) I think none
2) I think so
3) You should be able to do this with xt1032 and xt1033 with The others im not sure.

Get the "Global" (XT1032) model.
Seems both the retail "US" and "Global" models sold in the USA get their updates at the same time.
"US Cellular" is the name of an American carrier, be careful not to mix things up.
The GPE is an XT1032 and there are conversion guides on here for that exact purpose.

Thank you both, you have clarified me lots of things. now I know which exact model I should ask my friend to bring me. Thank you again.
Cheers

[Q] Is it possible to change the LTE bands on this phone?

Ok so I bought this phone online without knowing much about frequencies and such.
Now I have it and I'm unable to use anything other than edge service! I freaking love this phone but the poor connection leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
The phone supports bands 1, 3, 5, 7, & 17. And LTE 1800mah & 2600mah frequencies.
Is it possible to get my phone to accept USA frequencies?
Thanks for all input in advance!

AT&T uses band 2,4,5 and 17. I am using F350 on band 17 just fine.

Thanks for your reply.
I have the d838 model.
Your phone connects to AT&T's LTE service on band 17?
Sent from my D838 using XDA Free mobile app

Band 17 is the main AT&T LTE band. I don't believe the D838 can connect to Band 17 LTE700.

LTE Lost on D838 LG G Pro 2
Can any one tell me why the option of LTE/4G has lost?
How can I restored it?
I never Root my phone, my last Android Version is D83810f.
Thank you,
Best Regards,
maxivan

I have 10f Version on it and no Option 4g.
With 10e have 2g/3g/4g

Install the 4G Switch app from the playstore and you'll be able to enable the 4G/LTE. With this app you can even change the GSM/UMTS band (Auto, Euro, USA, Japan, AUS)
or
Enter this 5457#*838# into dialer (which will get you to the service menu) from where you can enable the 4G/LTE .

Lte works with 10f with this trick 5457#*838#,but when you go in the settings 2g/3g switched lte automatic off,you must go back to 5457#*838# and turn on the lte,this is not good.
I go back today to 10e and in the settings have 2g/3g/4g and no must go back in the hidden menu.
Sorry for my bad English,i hope you understand me.

Hi,i found a Trick,delete or copy to Sd Card LteConfig.apk and LteConfig.odex in System/app.
You have 2/3/4g in settings.
Your Phone must be rooted!
On next reboot goes this automatic on 2/3g,but you can go manualy on 2/3/4g

[Q] H60-L02 dual sim update from EMUI 2.3 to 3.0

Hi everyone, I got a dual sim H60-L02 from China (rooted by the seller) and using it in Malaysia.
The shop dealer asked me not to update the phone as I will not be able to use Malaysia SIM card upon updating to the latest firmware.
Is it something to do with the baseband?
Is there anywhere I can find the baseband if I updated the phone and fail to connect to the cellular services?
Do advise / correct me should I have made wrong statement.
Thanks.

sorry but it sounds to me you've got either a clone device or spyware from your seller. try the app Z device test to check the hardware

I have L-02 type, unrooted, using it in Malaysia, 1st sim Maxis and the other one use indonesia's SIM. It's running properly for 3G. I unable try 4G coz my sim card not support for 4G.

thanks for the reply.
Just to update, as there is a small note not to update to EMUI 3.0 while in rooted mode, I had factory reset the phone and then only updated the phone to latest firmware. Since Gapps does not available in China, I installed the Gapps from huawei app centre (Google calendar and contact sync adapter are available in that app centre) and the phone works well up to now except whatsapp chat history problem.
Hope you all enjoy Honor 6 H60-L02, definitely a phone worth to buy.

I have H60L02 .. Bought in Chinese... I am in India
I want or remove chinese app ..
Even in Contacts i could see chinese.. kindly Help in rooting it to International version EMUI

Japanese version SCL24

I'm considering this version imported. I understand it has different bands, and a TV tuner integrated. But what do we know about UK compatibility and is it possible to root it?

Considering this version as well, obviously because of the cheaper price for such a great phone, however without the ability to root or flash roms doesnt quite seal the deal.
I am trying to see if there is an alternative model no, as whats listed is scl24... aka sm-n915? if anyone has any information that would be great as i cannot find any information on this model except from the official au site.

First of all... i have scl24, root with custom rom. And it work in israel, except a gps problem i dont have any other.

Hi all, you can go to vietnamese site to download the 5.0.1 firmware for SCL24 as: http://choimobile.vn/threads/scl24-...-edge-au-beta-3-full-unlock-10-06-2015.60411/
The best for me is Beta3 with auto unlock for Sim and every things work great.
PS: Thanks to Mr. MANH IT for this super rom.
