Hey all,
is there a way to gain access to the AWS (1700MhZ BAND) on the R7f version?
It uses the same SD615 processor as the NA version, so is there a way to flash the modem or radio from the NA version to the F version ?
Ik now this was possible to do stuff like this with Samsung phones (Note 1 and 2 as I've done it myself) But I'm new to the Oppo R7 plus.
Thanks in advance
If someone with a North American version could extract the radio/modem I'll be happy to falsh and report back
Or is there a hidden menu that can enable/disable bands? I think I've read that the Lumia 1520 was able to do this as the AT&T version didn't do AWS and someone was able to enable it.
Thanks again

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.

i have bought td-scdma phone its doesnt support 3g in pakistan how can change its frequency to wcdma via mtk uncle tool i tryed but couldnt find the way i will be glade if u will help me?
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 bought HUAWEI HONOR 3C... with TD-SCDMA mode...:crying:
and i think no hope to get HSDPA signal now ?

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
I have a new Moto G LTE 1039, it is a Great Britain version radio, only support LTE Band 3/7/20.
But my local ISP support LTE Band 1.There is a Europe/Australia version, it has a Bands 1, 3, 7, 8, 20.
Can I unlock my phone LTE bands by install other EU/AU Stock Firmware?
By the way, and HOW TO?

Thank you, I had read the pages. I found that th main idea is that I should use the QPST to do it,
not to swap to other system version(e.g. EU/AU). It that true?
And if I have unlock the other LTE bands, need I install the EU/AU system version, or still use the GB version?
Hey Guys!
So I have just gotten an S7 (930S) and apparently, there is a mismatch between the bands present in the phone and the one offered by my network. I would like to know if I flash 930F modem on my phone would that be ok or not? I just want to flash the modem as well as the CSC of the 930F model. I hope someone can take the timeout to reply to my query.
Thanks

Yes you can, hardware is the same. However when you talk about network bands I assume your talking about the difference between networks using GSM and networks using CDMA? In which case you need to flash firmware which uses CDMA radios.

Well, when I am talking about Bands I am talking about the frequencies in which they operate. For example, my network offers the UMTS 900 frequency, but that frequency is missing from my current modem.
Therefore, I am assuming that if I flash the 930F model's modem, which does supoort the UMTS 900 frequency, I will be able to operate on the UMTS 900 frequency. Can you confirm me on that?
Or will I have to flash the 930F firmware on my phone to operate on the UMTS 900 frequency?

Yes 930F will work and install the radios you require.
The problem I am facing right now is that although the modem (Shannon335) on my phone (G930S - Korean) is the same as that on the international model (930F). But my phone (G930S) does not support one of the bands that my network supports which is UMTS 900 and that band is supported on the international version , although hardware wise (both are Shannon335) they are both the same.
So, I was thinking if i change my modem, currently its a South Korean modem and flash the international version modem could it work and make the band work for me?

Yes it should work
Thank You very much.
I would also like to know how should I choose and which modem to flash on my phone. Which things should I match and what to avoid during the flashing process. I have currently U1 security level modem, so when I flash another modem should it be U1 level as well?

To avoid problems you must match the modem to the version of firmware you are using, so yes U1 to U1. Flash the modem separately via Odin
If I have an Indian 8T (KB2001), would I be able to install a global/beta ROM (if and when available) and be able to unlock the bands so that I can use it in USA? 5G bands (n71, n41 , n260, n261) and bands 66, 71 is not available in the Indian version but present in the US model.
Just wondering whether a software update would turn this on as I believe it's the same hardware but the software hides it? Just a wishful thinking on my part, of course.
Unlocking 5G-bands is not possible. Phone example missing mmwave-antennas so n260, n261 bands doesn't work and I think it's not ready for even low bands. n41 may work this model.
In US I recommend buy US-version of this phone.
i want to use n41 in Indian model KB2001. I am in Thailand using this device and not able to connect to 5G as AIS uses N41 Band. can you help me with unlocking N41 band on this model.. ANy guidance?
I bought indian version, also want to unlock other 5g bands.
Is it possible if I just change DA rom to AA?

No way unlock without recompile modem firmware... If i know right all unlocked variants (China, India, Global, US) have same modem firmware so rom changing doesn't help. But you freely try and report here.
Can someone enlighten me please has I got today a OnePlus 8 and it is version IN2010, I have read on different sites and some say that it is compatible with band 66 and 71.
I used Shortcut master to access band menu but they are greyed out. Well this is a used OnePlus so how do I know that it's running on International rom? If I flash international bands can I use USA bands? Since it has 865 SD? Right?

Hi,
Bands cannot be activated/deactivated through software and ROMs. If you bought an IN2010 you'll get the chinese bands. And you can check if you're on the global ROM by going into settings then about phone and look at the Oxygen OS build number. If it ends with IN21AA it's global. A simpler way to check if you're not on chinese software is that they use Hydrogen OS, which is Oxygen OS, but complying with the Chinese gov's policy. So you'll see a difference.
Hope that helped
