[Q] S2 SHV-E110S 4G - Baseband & Qualcomm Firmware - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
My first post on this forum, and as there is no place here dedicated to SHV-E110S (4G) model, I post my questions here.
My question is about baseband on this smartphone, drived by qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8060 SoC.
Detailed specifications show that it is 4G compliant on the LTE 800, LTE 1800, LTE 2600 bandwitdh. But it seems it only works on 800 Mhz bandwidth, and I would like to know if someone could help me about the way to update or flash this APQ8060 SoC.
My theory is that the current qualcomm firmware doesn't allow to use 2.6 Ghz bandwidth as this smartphone is designed for korean market, and Korea use 800 Mzh LTE bandwidth.
So I am for some advices to upgrade the firmware or finding a way to use this smartphone on 2.6 Ghz LTE bandwidth.
I guess the baseband firmware is corresponding to the PHONE part in Odin software, am I right ?
I am also looking for the stock ROM for this SHV-E110S, which seems hard to find
Thanks for providing me informations about that if you can !

I think better to see in other thread. Because here is discussed international variant of Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100, that is completelly different with yours model.
Better to see in AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket threads, because its specifications close to yours.

SHV-E110S
Can we use the firmware of different galaxy s2 models if the specifications are same? In different countries they have different names of model... but when we check the spec it looks same.

You can use another rom if the specs are EXACTLY the same. But I wouldn't risk it on any high end phone.

SHV-E110S
Can anybody point out which rom will suite for Samsung galaxy s2 lte (SHV-E110S) korean version ?... the spec looks same with Samsung Galaxy S II LTE (Rogers) SGH-I727R and Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727. Thanks

Here is the link for latest firmware for SHV-E110S which is rooted.
http://bvlgarian.tistory.com/247

Thank you guys for your replies.
Unfortunately this smartphone is now hard-bricked since several days, after having tried to update phone firmware with another one originally designed for SC-03D, which though have the same hardware.
Maybe I will try to call a JTAC service to know if they can do something for it.
But I am still very disappointed with the specifications for LTE bands on the E110S... really seems like the 4G/LTE B7 band (2.6Ghz) does not work on the device.
I now use a GT-i9210, and it works without problem on 2.6Ghz network. The hardware modem part is (in constructor specifications) the same as E110S & SC-03D...
I had to translate a lot a chinese & korean forums to get informations about this model, and finally find some firmware but none of them lead me to get it working on 2.6Gz LTE network.
I had no problem with rooting the phone, however thank you for the rooted firmware link !

How did you extract the files? filename is blablabla.zip.001 and .zip.002 and so on.. I really need this.. And HOW? How do I do it? Do I need to use Odin to do this? Can I use Odin to do this as my phone is pretty messed up..

just all the blablabla.zip.001 --- blablabla.zip.077 files in one folder in your PC.
Click with right button of your mous on blablabla.zip.001 and click extract it with archivator (win-rar, win-zip, 7-zip)
I do not se this file, but i assume that inside file for Odin.
If file name ends with *.tar or *.tar.md5 - it's for odin

"File Splitter & Joiner" is the program you need to join the file *.001 *.002

[Q] Samsung Note SGH-I717 or SHV-E160L?

Hi.
I have a problem with my Note. I bought the Korean version of the phone (at leats it should be) but the specifications of the phone are driving me crazy lol
As I said, when I bought it, it should be the Korean version, however the rom running on it is from AT&T (AT&T splash screen, AT&T wifi hotspots in the settings, AT&T phone update and so on). The phone is rooted. When I run a device info app, it’s a mess:
Android version: 2.3.6
Release Codename: REL
CPU ABI: armeabi-v7a
CPU ABI2: armeabi
Hardware: SHV-E160L
Board: MSM8660_SURF
Device: SGH-I717
Display: GINGERBREAD.Jhonms.557419
Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-i717
Product: SGH-I9220
Even though I don’t understand some of this info, there are 3 things that intrigue me. The CPU, I guess it’s from the Korean version, since it seems the AT&T devices have a QUALCOMM processor. But the weirdest part for is the Hardware (SHV-E160L) and the Device and Model (SGH-I717) information. Shouldn’t that be the same in all the information? So my phone is it the AT&T model or the Korean model? The guy who sold it to me told me it was the Korean model but they change something in the ROM to support Chinese (I live in China), and the Korean ROM doesn’t support Chinese. However, I want to put the original Korean ROM because it has the NFC already working, while in the AT&T build I have in my phone, it’s not activated yet. So, anyway can anyone tell me which model I have?
And, if it's the Korean model, how did he put the AT&T ROM on it? I thought you couldn't mess the S7000, SI717, etc model roms?!
Thanks in advance.
This is all correct for an i717 at&t model.
hi,
i am also living in china and i guess i have the same device with yours.
i checked some web sites and they said at&t model doesn't have any physical home button.
but mine has it and the korean model (E160L) has it, too.
so i guess the hardware is from korea but the rom is not the original one.
does your device has '掌界网www_dot_wpcnn_dot_com' in Build number?
if so, it must be the same as mine.
i am thinking whether i can rewrite E160L original rom by modifying some information in build.prop. but i haven't succeeded in doing it because i don't know correct data in E160L's build.prop. (i am thinking samsung kies can update the rom to E160L's one if i fake it to E160L)
this device supports LTE though. i don't know if it's enabled on this device or not.
*#2263# doesn't the menu for it.
and i tried to install CMW (for SGH-I717) by odin3 today. flashing it to the device was ok. but the device cannot get in recovery mode....(infinite loop of booting)
anyway, this rom sucks.

Was anyone able to flash CWM on this? I am also having a loopy-recovery.
AFAIK... CMW = for ENGLISH, FRENCH and SPANISH etc ...languages.... and not set for 128bit character languges (am not sure iof right-correct tech word for chinese kange etc sorry to lazy to look that word up!)
the CMW = for 'western languages' only
Smart for S'sung = KOREAN MODELS = as non western languages .....
((( that they designagted that as "INTERNATIONAL MODEL" phones different MODEL NUMBER to ATT/Rodgers etc )))
There is a thread from one OP = about BOUNTY for making "korean models' able to do CMW + ATT/Roders ROMS etc ,,,,, you can search for there for my comments ..
Cheers , hope this helps towards some explinations of CMW/Drivers etc between two models of NOTE

no, no and no.
If I may have your attention within this Thread, the report system is not for ROM issues .
The report system is for Forum Rule violations, so please do not use the reporting system to identify your ROM/Rooting and or any issues regarding this manner.
Please understand that issues if they can be will be addressed, within the thread. Continue reporting that regarding your ROM issues, will result in abuse of the reporting system.
Thank you.
i have the same phone as you do some chinese guy rooted the phone without asking me and then i have ended up with this boring software i have tired everything the at&t thing doesnt even work but i will keep looking and when i find it i will post to let you know what i did!!

[Q] S3 I9305 change baseband to AWS 1700?

Is there is a way to flash change the modem for my S3 I9305 (international unlocked) so that it works with Wind mobile which uses the 1700 band?
Is there a custom ROM for this, or a modem rom I can flash to make this happen?
Hey Max,
what model do you have?
i9300-international
or the i9305 ?
Anyways both models doesn't and will not support the 1700 band as it's a hardware and not software.
sorry mate..

I thought the modems were just software controlled for the bands?
The modem can affect your signal, but only as long as your device has the required hardware.
I mean, you can't control the TV from your S3 as you don't have the IR like the S4 does

Convert Samsung Galaxy S III SHV-E210K to International version

Dear All,
I have been facing an issue of slow gprs on my Samsung Galaxy S3 SHV-E210K due to edge network and HSDPA network not being shown while gprs is connected(instead, G and 3G are shown). The speed has dropped to as low as 1/6 of the original (which I get on my Nokia C5 phone).
I have a strong feeling that if I convert this korean version of Galaxy S3, I will be able to solve the problem. Please help me converting it completely to international version like Galaxy S3 I9305 because the configuration is exactly the same.
I dont know how to root, how to install custom rom, where can they be found. But a step by step guide will surely help me a great deal. I have heard that this is the best site for all the android forums. Please post the complete solution as soon as possible.

@kasingy: I was able to convert it successfully to i9300 using HD Revolution ROM for SHV -E210K but the problem of slow gprs persists. the data sign show G in place of E in INDIA. I think it is due to only 900Hz frequency available in this rom where as Indian phones support 850Hz for edge network..
I have tried flashing various modem.bin files for i9300 to it but didnt get signals.
What to do please help. Will be very very grateful to you!
One more thing, if you are able to solve this, many Indian customers of SHV-E210k could get relief!!
Is it posible?
Is converting to the international version even possible??

Is the Canada Bell Galaxy Alpha able to be rooted?

Does anybody have the Canada Bell version of the Alpha? Can you root it?
Also, does anybody know if CanadaGSM.ca is a legitimate website? I see they sell unlocked version of the Bell Alpha.

Hi, I've got a Galaxy Alpha (SM-G850W) from Virgin Mobile. Unfortunately there wasn't any information if my phone would be bricked or not after rooting since the baseband version on chainfire's website is Videotron.
My Phone :
SM-G850W
sltecan
msm8974
KTU84P.G850WVLU1ANI4 (Virgin Mobile Baseband Version)
4.4.4
Description on Chainfire's Web Site:
SM-G850W
sltecan
msm8974
KTU84P.G850WVLU1ANJ4 (Videotron baseband version)
4.4.4
So I had to try and...
I was able to successfully root with Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root!
So yes it's probably rootable
And keep in mind i'm not responsable if you brick your phone.
Big thanks and thumbs-up to Chainfire!

Are you in the U.S.? Any idea where I could get a virgin mobile galaxy alpha?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G850A
No, I'm french canadian.
I'd try swappa or ebay and search for devices from canada.
But i'd recommend you get one with an octacore (from europe i think).
Or you wait for the time being since there's not much developpement for this device cause sammie announced the end of the alpha.

i had one which i sold i a good price can`t root till i had and don`t know about the legitimacy of mention website. but did successfully unlocked mine from phoneunlockingshop.ca
I was tempted to order from Canada GSM even though in the USA because the Canada Bell Unlocked Phones they sell appear to have exact same Bands for Tmobile/Metro PCS in USA.
However I found a Alpha 850M which is an International Exynos with
7 LTE Bands and even has 1700 WCDMA Band ( not listed in the specs) in addition to the others that are specified.
This one definitely has a louder, fuller speaker than the AT&T Qualcomm and faster, so I assume better than
Bell Canada's Qualcomm Alpha.
The Alpha 850M is made for North,South America and the Carribean so should work well for you.
I am not sure Canada GSM is legit but if not we would have heard about it..right?
ALSO - not a Dev so you need to find out if 850M can be rooted etc.

1) Accept the fact that you may void your warranty, brick your device and are doing this because you're brave
2) Locate SM-G850W file
3) Read instructions from start to finish
4) Read instructions AGAIN !!!
5) Go for it!

Good luck. It worked for my SM-G850W, KK 4.4.4 Canadian Bell :good:
I have not upgraded to Lollipop yet and know only what is stated here...
Worked well for the sm-g850w sltecan from Telus too. Now, there is absolutely nothing else. No recoveries, backups must be made the hard way (building your own flashable .tar file), no custom roms. That's not the ideal phone to customize. It's my ' corporate business ' phone. Rooted, but not customized.
I have a Google Nexus 5 to try anything. My Samsung tablet runs on an unofficial BlissPop rom, which is pretty cool.
It is easy to root, just be sure to use sltecan (snapdragon) and not slte (exynos) files. You' ll soft brick your phone, which is not ideal (been there, done that...)

I know older thread, but Just about to try this out. on my Telus Alpha, however, I'm currently on 5.0.2 (G850WVLU1BOD7) ...will this revert me back to a previous version, then if I update from that point will I loose root? I mainly want root, to get rid of these damn youtube ads lol.
EDIT - nevermind - worked no problems, no issues whatsoever. . If anyone has any ?? let me know
Now I can't seem to understand the whole process of installing xposed. Seems different than it used to be and reading things about deodexing etc etc. Anyone here had success?

newbie needing help with Samsung S7 , SM-G891A to convert to SM-G891T

I bought and unlocked Galaxy S7 to get service on Tmobile network and the phone works fine but is an AT&T phone with
all the accompanying bloatware. I am in a bad cellular area for tmobile and depend on wifi calling as the signal is very weak.
The wifi calling on my purchased phone is grayed out which i found out through forums that AT&T has something to do with this.
I decided to root my phone and load firmware to Tmobile but have only found the process and firmware SM-G930T and not SM-G891T. The phone currently has SM-G891A, which is AT&T 's firmware. Baseband version G891AUCS4DRK1. I haven't been to find the right firmware for my phone. Can anyone help me? Thanks

Are you sure you didn't confuse device version with firmware version? SM-G891A
Is not a firmware, it's your phone model, which is of course galaxy S7.
But anyway, there is not Tmobile firmware for that model. Only 930T as you said.maybe could be possible to port the rom.

I wouldn't recommend to flash it yet. Processors should be the same, as well as the screen size,for flash a different rom.

If battery isn't the same, power consumption could burn the phone.
