[q] base band - General Questions and Answers

Correct me if I am wrong, but since the GSM bands are same in the two models, why should there be any problems in connecting to the GSM n/w? i Would've understood had the problem been with LTE, but regular GSM, I think shouldnt be a problem.

gsm r same no problem i think

[Q] [help] Use Inspire 4g in the United Kingdom

Recently i bought the Inspire 4G from USA through Ebay
and found that the only network i can use to be connected to the internet is GPRS
I started wondering if this phone support the UK network (HSPA)
i'm currently using Three (UK)' 3G network, my HTC Legend works fine with HSPA
Does Inspire 4G support HSPA?? or only HSPA+??

u mean that's the problem with my APN settings?
So how can i find the correct settings then??
The DHD and Inspire 4G are one in the same with a few minor differences. If you've s-off and downgraded, you can directly flash the new stock Desire HD Gingerbread ROM without all the bloatware from here. You will have to root using Gingerbreak, then install the tinny audio fix from here. Works like a champ. Of course, there's all the DHD GB ROM's based on that same kernel which can be flashed using CWM. Lot's of options here...none include the stock AT&T ROM.
so you are saying that the problem can be fixed by flashing a new DHD rom??but not the own problem of inspire 4G?
Yup...give it a whirl. AT&T ROM's are preloaded with their own APN and do not allow you to use the built-in network configuration utility at first boot. Just downgrade and s-off first. It used to be that the original shipping DHD ROM's would cause the I4G to lose audio. Now it's just a bit tinny which some do not like.
i tried this before, it doesn't work, there is still only GPRS network
i even flashed the latest radio just now, but it just doesn't show the "H" icon at the top!!!!
please brothers, i am also facing the same problem in middle east using inspire 4g with vodafone sim card. mine is rooted inspire 4g and i couldn'd get the 3g connection.
Hmmm...unless the radio hardware is different, and I don't think it is, I don't know what the situation is. You flashed the whole ROM right?

This thread has so much wrong info in it.
The Inspire 4G will NEVER work with European UMTS(3G) bands. Only EDGE. The reason is frequency. The USA uses 850/1900 for UMTS. The EU uses 900/2100. There is no way to change this.

No you wont ever get 3g with the inspire in Europe. It only has American 3g bands.
I don't know why this thread got so many replies with nobody saying this, but it lacks the hardware for your country. Sorry.
OK...the European ROM flashes to the Inspire, radio and all, and HSPA works in the US without a hiccup. How does the DHD radio firmware work here if the hardware is different? I'm assuming that the same firmware works on both phones but the hardware to receive the 900/2100 mhz band is missing. Oh well, learn something new every day.
FWIW, you may try changing your band on the phone by using engineering mode *#*#4636#*#* and seeing if you can play around with network preferences. Other than that, I think the guys above must be right.

LTE not working

My lte is not working. I'm rooted and running cyanogen mod 10. I am in an LTE area. I've tried a number of different roms including sense. I've tried flashing different radios. Nothing seems to be fixing the problem. I got lte a while ago when I was on viper rom and haven't gotten it since. Flashed back to viper and still no lte. What should I try next? Thanks for any help.

From the CM10 Q&A:
Q: My signal strength says 4G. Why is there no LTE?
A: E=Edge, 3G = UMTS, H = HSPA/HSPA+, 4G = LTE
Go into system tuner or ROM manager and then edit this build.prop:
ro.telephony.default_network
Change the number to 10 or 11 (that's what worked for me)
Save it and reboot.
Let me know if this works. I've brought this up before but I was shot down and told no one has this problem.

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..

No 4g modem = no 4g reception.
Seems pretty obvious this wouldnt work.

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.

[Q] Supported 4G bands on MSM8960Pro

Hi guys,
I am trying to confirm what bands are supported and the MAXX. I have done some research and it turns out that most of the latest Moto phones with the
MSM8960Pro Snapdragon support different bands. The Motorola Moto X XT1052 for Europe for example supports the following 4G bands: LTE 800 / 1800 / 2600
The MAXX however only supports LTE 700 MHz Class 13 / 1700 / 2100
So, is it the hardware that is different on these phones or is the baseband installed the deciding factor as to what band is usable?
I've tried to find technical documents for this chipset, to confirm whether it supports all these bands or not but can't find anything.
Last but not least, would flashing the european Moto X baseband on the MAXX unlock the band 7 frequency?
TIA

It is hardware different, there is is different radio chip.
If you flash moto x radio there will not be signal.
Different radio chip, everything it's the same

New Nexus 5 - network problem (a complicated one)

Hi
need your help, I have tried everything..
I can not connect to 3G
I tried to flash image factory/set correct APN setting with the operator/switch radios/replacing new SIM.
didn't helped my!
When I connect to 2G everything works for me, calls and online.
When I switch to 3G, I have no service, it writes me Unavailable operator.
It get stuck on the "Search" when I try to search manually.
When I try to go back to 2G, it is still stuck on "searching.." and I have no reception! Only reboot fixes it and I can go back to work with 2G.
It is important to note that when I take out the SIM I can find operator on 3G.
How can I fix the problem or even understand what it comes from?
I have Nexus tool kit, maybe I can sent you Catlog \ bugreprot?!
Thank You in Advance
What about, when you are in LTE ? Will you get 3G ? You should get either 3G or Edge (came to know that your country don't have LTE yet).

I don't have LTE in my country yet, and my operator only have 2G (no EDGE)
If you choose LTE on your phone, it supports all lower versions (i.e 3G / Edge) ! So you must get Edge (2G) !
LTE option doesn't force only LTE !

I know, if I choose LTE I get the same problem, no service..

This. The Nexus 5 very well may not support the 3G frequencies your network uses.
Sent from my iPhone 5s using Tapatalk
I certainly know that this is not the problem, Nexus 5 is supported in my country
Should not be a problem with the 3G frequencies of both models 820 \ 821.
If that's the case, I'd recommend contacting your carrier.
