If i have my note on the leaked ics roms, will i be able to flash one of the tmobile modems to get tmobile 3g or 4g
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yes, that's exactly what I'm running. I get respectable 4G speeds (6 up / 3 down). Of the 3 or 4 T-mobile modem files out there, I found 2 worked for me...then it was just a bake-off with SpeedTest.net to see which one I wanted to stick with.
Unfortunately, I couldn't tell you which specifically...once I got it working, I didn't keep the files around.

I worked the hell out of the telus, KID and Blaze radios in ICS and have found, for me, Blaze gives the best result, with KID a close second.
You can find these in the developers and general sections under threads labelled for T-Mo modems.
Does my phone have to be unlocked or can I just flash the blaze modem?

Are you using the same modem/radio or are you changing them with the Rom?

Are you using the exact same APN with the Canadian ICS ROM as you do the custom ROMs?
I am with Rogers and currently have a jb custom rom and find my lte to be the same, if not better with the UCLF6 modem.

so i left verizon, due to service coverage at work, and am wondering can i flash a ATT ROM now that I'm using GSM sim ONLY now? if so, any special way of doing it or just flash as normal? thanks a ton.
I think that world actually work. The ROM would have the Att modems inside. I would look for one that has the APN settings unlock just in case. Back up always and please report back.

For any one interested I have successfully flashed att rom to my Verizon note2 with no additional steps needed. This is only good for someone using the gsm side as there now no option for cdma. But just letting everyone know

Does LTE work on your verizon note 2, now that it's running att rom? Or just EDGE for data?

thanks for the reply. thats the same one that im using at the moment but the back of my phone keeps heating up when im using mobile data. im wondering is there a different modem that would work on mobilicity?
Heat is normal for me under data usage. Every phone does that.
For the modems, just keep trying different ones until you find the one that works best for you. There is no 100% guaranteed to work modem for everyone. Good luck

Bad news. Phone isn't compatible with 1700mhz frequency. Might be out of luck. Sorry

I'm wrong! Lol thank you for posting Shane. So now it basically narrows down for the best modem that works for you.
There might be a Wind/Mobilicity thread around here somewhere. Wish you luck
Maybe here?

Im with wind and use the telus modem which gets wicked speed. When using a cm based rom yhere is no need to tweak but if using a TW based rom do this trick, go into dial pad and input *#2263# then chose wcdma then pick 850 band, exit out and then go back in again via *#2263# and pick auto, wait a few secs and run a speed test. Mine hits around 2500 to 3000 which kill my hd2 at 1600 to 2000

Like they said man, their are tons of thread asking the same thing...
But to answer your question, every international Rom will work on our model, however you will loose wifi calling (it's tmobile specific and unless you flash a stock Rom you won't have in any other Rom).

Don't do it. There is another thread in this forum where some one lost their, hspa data.
It's generally better to wait until ruins stabilize brie you start flashing unless you are masochistic.

Yah you need to do some reading.
That said, Android Revolution and TrickDroid work great for TMo and have all the TMo stuff including wifi calling included. There probably are others, but these two are by far the most popular. I personally run TrickDroid.
hello all I have looked everywhere for the answers all have dead links,
I have a unlocked att i717, rooted, flashed radio I have pretty much the works on the phone
I am using metropcs as my cell service they use tmobile towers, I am wanting a tmobile rom that I can
use the wifi calling, I read that I can use a stock rom and use a few other files to get it to work correctly
with my service. every link I have found is dead, can someone please point me to the right place or
link me files I need to flash on my i717 so I can use the wifi calling that is built into the tmobile rom.
thank you everyone

It will work. If you mean on a telus network, the wifi calling (do they have that?) likely will not, and you'll probably need to flash a different modem. I know nothing of Telus, though.
Hardware wise, though, it will work just fine.
My wife is using MetroPCS as well. Her phone is from CA Telus. Mine is from att. Mine was i717 before I flashed a TMobile ROM. Hers,is the i717d.
