Just moved to grand Cayman. Can anyone help me out here? Need a modem that is flashable or Odin flashable that will get me some reception. I came from Canada rogers. Currently running a s5 port. Will I need tonflash a new ROM? Or am I able to flash a modem on top.
Much appreciated.

Here's a collection of modems, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475714 .
Though, different Notes have different radios with different frequencies, and coverage wherever you are depends on that.
A lot more depends on the carrier, though, if no carrier has coverage there, don't expect a miracle from any software, when it's the right hardware that you need.

I will assume you would have an N900W8.
You have a high risk of bricking if you flash an N9005 modem on your device.

Haven't we already gone over the fact that you are trying to run US based firmware outside the country and it won't work right?
Yeah dude. Enough is enough. What you're looking for wont help you. A Fascinate radio on a Mesmerize would be idiotic, and the Showcase EB11 on top of that would just be even more worthless.
Just let it go. You should've bought a phone for your country, from your carrier.
Hi,
First time posting, long time reading.
Having issues getting LTE/4G access on my Samsung Note 2 on the Vodafone network in Australia. I am currently running Hashchcek v2.5 ROM on 4.1.2, have a baseband of N7105TDVALK2 and using saberkernel.
According to Vodafone the baseband version N7105TDVDMB2 should have been pushed out with their update to 4.1.2 to allow LTE access.
Does anyone know how I go about getting this latest baseband or getting LTE as a network mode option?
Do I need to obtain the latest CSC/modem and flash with that? If so does anyone know where I can get this from? I have had a good look around and can only find the old Vodafone CSC which I am currently using. Can I just use the Telstra Baseband?
Or am I way off and someone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Installed the following and so far so good. Not in a 4G area ATM but will update once I have done some more testing. So far the 3G speed tests are noticeably better.

since no one was able to help me with this problem, i figured a workaround would be to install the T-Mobile Galaxy S2 stock 4.1.2 rom on the skyrocket, which is a supported device for the ISIS system.
so is there a way i can flash the stock t989 rom on the i727?
i don't care about losing some functionality, like lte, as the flash will only be temporary. i'll switch back to i727 when i need to.
if someone can please provide me a guide on how to accomplish this, i'll really appreciate it.
thanks!

From my experience I've read some of the guide and they haven't worked out to well.
I suggest the following.
Install T989 recovery to avoid modifying settings
Do all the wipes like usual, flash T989 ROM
Flash the stock skyrocket kernel that matches the T989 rom that you're flashing.
I've had good success flashing skyrocket modem (LTE worked like usual)
The above gave me, a not perfect, but best experience, a working ROM and more importantly a working camera. Rotation fix didn't fix everything so I suggest the above.

Hi OP, I bought an i727 and started to wonder about the same thing. And I'm on T-mo. So did drago's method work for you? Thanks
i actually didn't try it out to be honest. got an S4 shortly after.
I was looking at how-to's for flashing a custom ROM onto my new phone (which I rooted with TowelRoot), and it said you need ND8 firmware to flash an ND8 ROM. However, I can't find this anywhere. Can someone help me out? I'm looking to flash LiquidSmooth, eventually, not for any particular reason other than I don't really like the default and it was recommended to me.

Unless it's a typo, the Sprint Galaxy S5 does not have an ND8 version. Also, AFAIK, there isn't a LiquidSmooth rom for the Sprint S5 either. You posted over on MOAR, so I'm sure with a little more information on what you've done so far (and more reading on your part), we'll get you up and running.

Yeah, I realized after I posted this that I was still in Galaxy S3 mode and that it's probably different for S5. I've done as much reading as I could find, but it didn't really help me too much. A lot of terminology that I didn't understand.
This thread can be closed, if'n that would please the people.
So i got a Galaxy s7 from rogers here in canada. My model is SM-G930W8. I'm wondering how/what are the effects of flashing ROM on this device? Rogers is super slow with their updates, im still on their April update, and it's in fact the only update they ever put out. So if i flash a stock rom onto this phone, will i get the updates directly from samsung? How does this all work? Also if yall are too lazy to answer can you link me to like a good Q&A thread that would answer my question?

Well, I'm no expert in that area since in my country there aren't any carrier locked s7 devices. But I'm guessing that flashing a different stock rom might not be a good idea because you might lose some features or in the worst case scenario, your phone might not boot up at all. So, if I were you I would root my phone, search for a custom rom that's as close to the stock one and which can be flashed on Canadian models.

If you flash a rom from the dev section you won't get any updates since the phone will be rooted, you'll have to rely on newer roms from the dev section. You'll also lose volte/wifi calling from rogers.
Now if you flash a stock telus rom and have a rogers sim i doubt you'll get updates either but who knows, only rogers is holding up the update, every other carrier already pushed out the july update.
