Hi,
I am in Australia and I got an unlocked Spring Galaxy S5 g900p which I was using with Vodafone AU on 4G.
Last night I updated to the latest g900p firmware using Odin to get the stagefright patch and afterwards I am only getting 3G. The "Global" network mode is gone and was replaced with "Automatic." Is there a way in the system where I can re-enable "Global" or atleast LTE Band 3? I am rooted with the latest stock firmware.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
you can, but apparently you need to do some work with odin.

Sir I purchased a new unlocked S6 Edge ( 925A) at&t device from abroad to use in india.
The guy told it's fully unlocked and it support any sim card. Buy when I checked with Indian Sims I am getting only 2g signals .. I am not getting 3G and 4g signals..
When I checked for network selection mode settings it's missing in the settings.
No software OTA update is available. . I think it's also disabled.. when I checked the device status it is in "custom"..
So if I flash a stock ROM with Odin will it lock again ?
Do I need to unlock it again.. ??
First check the model from bootloader, if its actually a att variant then you can flash a stock rom too make it work as normal, but if its some other variant then get back to this thread again.
Its surely an at&t Variant of Samsung Galaxy S6 EDGE.. its model number is 925A.. which is only available for ATT..
Its baseband version is G925AUCU1AOCE
I purchased this phone as fully unlocked from UAE but in india when i start to use it i came to know that its not taking 3G and 4G signals .. but 2g Signal and Data services are working fine..
I got the phone in rooted condition without any Boot animation of At&t. Since its rooted i am not getting any official updates.
I am also facing many software bugs.. from different apps..
So really want to flash the phone with a new stock rom for using it..
I have some doubts about it please clear it..
1) if i flash it with an official att stock rom will it lock again for att network ?
2) can i remove the att boot animation after flashing with stock rom ?

Providers in India use bands 3, 40, and 41 for LTE. The AT&T S6 Edge is only compatible with band 3.
I doubt you'd be able to flash a different ROM, and even if you could, you still wouldn't have compatibility with bands 40 or 41.
Firstly Thanks for your reply.. i know that S6 Edge at&t only support Band 3 LTE cuz it's a FDD LTE supported device.. in my country here providers are using both TDD & FDD LTE bands for LTE..
In my region "Kerala" at presently all the providers are using Band 3 which is compatible will my phone. But i am not receiving any LTE and 3G signals..
My friends have different unlocked phones from T-Mobile they are not facing any problem..
I am still doubt the flashing ROM.. i am going to flash the stock rom for at&t.. it's the only official rom available for my device.
It could be an APN issue. Make sure the settings are the same as your friends are using. Beyond that, I have no idea.
Nothing Wrong with the APN.. cuz i am using 2G data without any problems.
We have same APN for all 2G ,3G & 4G..
I think its the problem with my software..
I can't switch between LTE/WCDMA/2G because that network mode selection option is disabled or not available..
I am compelled to flash a new Rom..
I don't have any other options.
I own a good phone but i can't use it . Really sad about it..
for sure people here can help you more on this

I own an unlocked Samsung G920A which I actually flashed to a G920AZ (Cricket Wireless (who is owned by AT&T)). I now want to flash to T-Mobile as I want to be able to 1. get Marshmallow. Cricket may never. 2. Be able to use WiFi calling and you can only do that with the TMO image (from what I read). I downloaded the G920TUVU3EPD1_G920TTMB3EPD1_G920TUVU3EPD1_HOME.tar and using Odin tried, but it fails.
Is it possible to flash to the T-Mobile firmware/ROM ?
If it is impossible, then I think I would want to go to the G920A again to get Marshmallow 6.0.1, then simply pop the T-Mobile SIM in, update APN, etc. Unfortunate though as the LTE bands all work. Seems sh***y it wouldn't work to use their firmware.
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if it would be possible to flash an EE (EVR CSC) onto my rooted BTU 6.0.1 firmware? The BTU 6.0.1 firmware doesn't support EE VoLTE. I don't want to be on EVR firmware because it messes up my dual sim model (G930FD)
VoLTE became active on my EE G920F (BTU) earlier today. I'd been asking the same question as you for a few days. Was messing in the settings, disabled and reenabled wifi calling and it just happened. Phone rebooted itself and VoLTE was active. Tested with a few 4G calls to confirm.
None of the ims files were changed but there is a new APN named 'ims' in the settings. It isn't selected active but it is there - it wasn't before.
Yes, the phone was bought.from an EE shop and still carries the original IMEI. So I believe as long as your phone was bought from an EE outlet you will definitely be able to use VoLTE sometime soon.

Hello,
I am going to attempt to Flash my Sprint S7 Edge with current Firmware version G935PVPS8CRK1 to the Unlocked firmware of G935UUES8CRK1 as I have ported out of Sprint and need to enable all LTE bands for a different network now.
My questions are
Can this be done for the above firmware versions and will it enable all LTE bands if successful ?
In the SAMMOBILE page, there are different variants for the SMG935U including one for Sprint. I was assuming that all 935U variants would be identical, but I guess I'm mistaken. So, should I download the Sprint version of SMG835U or something else ?

Never mind, I was able to flash the G935UUES8CRK1 firmware. Also, in Odin I tried with the HOME CSC. Although Odin showed a successful status, my device went into a dm verity boot loop. Then I had to flash it again with the regular CSC file and it worked.
I'm about to do the same thing, were you able to use LTE and VOLTE? Or access other bands that didn't work while on the sprint firmware? Right now i have the sm-g935p and am using it with t-mobile. I can only get 3g speed and have voice working or LTE with no voice.
Yeah, LTE was working. Band 40 which was otherwise disabled in the Sprint firmware was open and LTE Discovery app confirmed it. Not sure about VoLTE.

Yes. The bootloader was updated a few months ago. There is a thread here with files and instructions.
