Has anyone tried flashing or porting the Mate S modem to the p8 Max. Also has anyone unlocked more bands for the US.
can't flash modem.img partition from MATE S ... on P8Max ... ... said Operation not....
I'm curious too. I'm in the EU and have a chinese P8max and not all 4G frequencies are supported, so I rarely get 4G, instead it's 3G most of the time, even at places where 4G was always present.
Could something like this be fixed with a modem flash?

Yes. A modem flash, or if someone could modify the modem file. You would have access to more bands. There is an article here on XDA to modify frequency bands. But I don't know if it would work with Kirn! Nor do I know if it would work with the p8max at all. I have heard rumors that the mate S modem would be portable, as they have the same hardware for the modem
OK, it's the same chipset. Anyone has a source for the Mate S modem image?

Haven't found anyone who has it or is willing to give it to me! I do wonder though if any of my article I found would work as the processor is Kirin and not Qualcomm!

Everyone thought you were gonna, lol. No has tried, flashing it yet
How is it going? Somebody flashed?
I have 2 questions:
It is possible to activate additional baseband of modem and not having only 3 one?
It is possible to get LTE+ working on your ROM in Europe?
Thanks for your help

I'm on Rogers. I actually don't know if I don't have LTE, or if the region I'm currently living in just has terrible LTE support since my friends don't have LTE here either (and I'm sure like, none of them have flash an.. anything).

Can you post some noticeable difference after the update?

How did you update the modem to NI1? I Odined the modem.bin file, but my baseband is still NB7..
Any mirror links? That site is always horribly slow and prone to failed downloads all the time.

You have to turn off your device ... Not just reboot to download mode.
If you just reboot to download mode, modem partition will be protected... If you turn off your device before going into download mode, you will be fine. I even removed the battery to make sure it was really off.

No idea if it it's any better than NB7, but I'm definitely getting LTE. Must have been the building I was in when I flashed.

Is there a way to flash the Chinese P8 Max DAV-3L with the DAV-1L rom which I downloaded from Huawei Thai website. I tried local update but it didn't work.

That's a question many will ask. It probably won't work because of different hardware and hence the difference in model number.

The only way you can make this happen is to root your phone and create a custom rom from a 701 source without the modem and baseband. Then you can use the custom recovery to install them rom or push the system, data,kernal and ... via adb.

It might work. The update.app can be repackaged to contains only the system.img. Since probably the only hardware difference should be the modem.

Hi there,
Not sure that is the case actually. Like the Qualcomm SoC can be tricked into supporting more LTE bands, Kirin might also.
Kind regards,
can you do it the other way around ? install a DAV-3L on a DAV-1L ?

Yeah it might since they both share the same cpu. Technically, they should have the same number of LTE bands. Actually I did a comparison and the 703L have 2 extra bands more than the 713L.

Flashing it on a single-sim version won't brick it. There are several people doing it because they want to get dual-sim working. I am currently making a backup and trying to flash it on a german 1572.
Like I said. I'm not responsible.

Edit:
Getting this error: error executing updater binary in zip
Will take a closer look at this.
Like i mentioned, this rom is for the Indian dualsim version and probably won't work on other style/pure phones
Sent from my XT1575 using XDA Free mobile app
And I repeat: It doesn't brick the device! It's the same like with the Moto X Play. You can also flash on a single sim device a dual sim rom.
Where did I mention anything about bricking?

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Oky to explain what changes for a single sim Version: you get a menu for dual sim, but the options change nothing.
Hi @alex1301. I am from Australia. I have a single Sim XT1572. Can you point me in the direction of how to flash the new Indian OTA zip going around? Was there any complications doing it on your European XT1572?
Also do you know what is the safe way to make a backup of my stock 5.1.1 rom in case I brick it and need to try and flash a back? I am familiar with Nexus phones but unsure how this works with Motorolas. Thanks!
The problem at the moment is that it doesn't flash correctly because it only patches existing files. We need to wait for someone who makes a backup of an updated factory resetted marshmallow rom.

What to debranded this phone but can find MHA-L09C34B122 incase debrand goes bad. This is a single SIM model so need a good replacement rom that will get ota faster. Any ideas
Sent from my MHA-L09 using Tapatalk
The best rebranding option for a single-sim device is probably MHA-L09C432.
But there's no reason you can't rebrand it to a dual-sim device. It's just, the IMEI will be 0000000 for the second sim, so you can only use one sim.
If going to another variant and can get orginal provided rom C34B122 can i cross flash Cust partition? To other variant

No rom isn't on Huawei servers looks like Optus hasn't released firmware yet. The Optus P9 Roms are on there so maybe due to it being new
