if you flash a rom that isn't for your region, you probably cant conect to 3g cause different regions uses different radio bands.
So, if you got this trouble, you might flash this binary via odin to recover 3g connection.
it's for north america, south america and thailand!
just flash any rom you want, then flash this in the phone section of odin:

if you think this is useful, say thanx is always welcomed.
let me know if this help anyone
I am reluctant to believe that you can't connect to a 3G signal because of a software limitation. If the radio does not support certain bands no modem.bin can solve the problem. The P6200 support 900/1900/2100 the P6200L support 850/1900/2100.

not true

if you dont know yet, models like p6200 and p6200L got the same hardware. But the firmware changes, because of regions. That's why p6200 got 3g over 850mhz band and p6200, on 900mhz.
The modem.bin is the firmware for this region.. like a driver, that make this band freq work.
if you dont try this yet.. go ahead and you will find that you cant connect to 3g in your country. this is only for thailand and americas
dont talk if you dont try first man
cheers
You are saying that both the P6200 and the P6200L have the same quad Band radio on 3G at 850/900/1900/2100. But the P6200 has a baseband that only supports 900/1900/2100 while the P6200L has a baseband that only supports 850/1900/2100?
Has anyone else successfully been able to flash the modem.bin of a P6200 over a P6200L and connect to 850mhz on 3G?

yup.. im from chile and my device was SOD. so i have to flash a firmware from rusia.. there 3g band works on 900mhz so i only have edge on my GTP. i flashed the modem.bin from thailand (where 3g works on 850 mhz, like in south/centroamerica) and voila: IT WORKS.
You are confirming what I am saying : your TAB is a P6200L, thus has a 3G radio that works on 850/1900/2100 . You flashed a baseband for a radio that works on 3G on 900/1900/2100 . While your phone was still working on Edge ( since the radio is indeed a quad band on GPRS/Edge ) it could not connect on 3G.
I am assuming that the code of the two baseband is the same for the GPRS/Edge part, and this is why you are still able to flash it and have it partially working on a radio with different frequency.
But do not tell me that the P6200 and the P6200L have the same radio because they don't.
P_
they do have the same HARDWARE but different FIRMWARE
You've lost your mind. Someone please call 911
i already test that on 3 different devices: i9003, galaxy fit and galaxy ace.. all the same thing. and now, the GTP..
that's why im talkin bout that.. because i try it already man
P6200L to P2600 firmware to get 3g on 900mhz

please be real. to say something AT LEAST try it first. you dont know anything about this topic, so please dont be like that. you can change the firmware to anything you want and vice versa.
It's possible, but you'll have to find the modem from the P6200. I don't think anyone has uploaded it yet (could be wrong).
you are wrong my friend =)

that's it

Matey I live in Australia I ihad firmware from Hong Kong but I the used this to fix a messed up ROM and wiped it with a pit file as well now I have lost 3G HSPDA all I have at the top is H by the way I am using a Galaxy S4 so far you are the only person that I have found with a fix can this be adapted to the GS4 to work on the original firmware?? If not do you know what direction to point me to I have tried doing all the manual APN etc. but no go please I would be so grateful for any advice given.....
DEVICES GALAXY S4 GT-I5905 NOTE II GT-N7105 NOTE II GT-N7100:good:
Thank you!
This method works for my P6200 phone. Now I can connect to 3G at 850MHz. Amazing, thank you!

Absolutely no difference between a D820 and a D821 except the LTE bands they access. They share the same firmware.
There is a thread in the General section for activating one or two specific bands which aren't officially supported, but only do it if absolutely necessary.
Can u link ?
I have d820 and i need to access 1800mhz LTE

Thanks,
It will work on Lollipop stock kernel?
Since the whole device is same will there be any issues if i do it will i face any radio issues?
One way to find out...flash it.
The whole device is not the same. There are some different LTE bands on the phones aren't there?

Technically, it should matter because of the different hardware.
In Brazil, the model sold is the same 920i - which by the way doesn't stand for Indian.
I know people who have installed the Xtrestolite 2.0 which is 5.1.1 for F and T models. The only things that happened is that they can't use the fingerprint scanner or connect to LTE...

The model is a variant of the Verizon Model SM-G930V. I believe the model is also factory unlocked.
does anyone know if this one has b12 (700) to work on at&t?

no it does not have band 12 it has band 2 1900mhz for lte 850 mhz and 1900mhz for 3g
Anyone know if I can turn on band 12 with qpst or other software?

Flash the SM-G930U firmware with oding and profit.
I have heard the hardware is exactly the same on all versions. Just not sure though if flashing to 930u will have enabled my CDMA radios and band 13 LTE.
Anyone tired this?
Bump.
