Hi!
Huawei yesterday did publish a Version of ICS for the S7-302u MediaPad (is the S7-302u the 4G Version for T-Mobile USA?)
Until now they did publish only Software for the S7-301u (3g Version)
Thanks! Kind regards from Kiel, Germany

Hi,
I think the S7-302u is the 4G Model for T-Mobil USA.
Regards,
Thomas
No, 302u is an 850/1900/2100 version. 301u is 900/2100. T-Mobile Springboard is 303u, AWS/1900/2100. AT&T's is 312u.

There are no differences between C232B005 and C232B001 firmwares, I checked and compared each of the files. The only change is the channel name which is now "austrulia" (wrong too).

Is there not even a difference between the radio files?

No.
Weird, because after I switched from the 301u firmware my upload speeds were sometimes in the 100 kbps range. I had never seen them so low.
I wonder if maybe the radio files actually contain code for multiple hardware radios, and some little setting in a .prop file or such is responsible for activating one variety or another.

You can ensure by checking that yourself.
And if you find the reason or something different please tell.
Okay well this is wi-fi related and not cellular radio I think, but on the 302U firmware in /etc/sar I see six files: 3xxU_NV.bin and sar_3xxU.conf, one pair for each of 302, 303, 312. Seems to hint at some sort of difference.
Curiously the 301u firmware also contains the same files with none matching 301.
The corresponding directory does not exist at all in the T-Mobile Springboard (303u) Honeycomb system image. But it does exist in the international 302u image for Honeycomb.

...maybe it's something in the line of the old MS-Windows "all OS versions are identical, but you need the right key" - feature. It would make no sense for a hardware manufactor to build different hardware platforms for a small range of different features, it makes much more sense to give the same model to all buyers and let some code decide what to switch on and what not. Which makes new OS versions interesting even for folks who *don't* have the "correct" model version
I am pretty sure that each numbered model does genuinely have a different radio chip. Otherwise I'd be capable of accessing 850 MHz 3G towers using the 302u firmware on the 303u - and this is not the case. 1900 works fine.
But for whatever reason I am still unable to access the AWS 3G band on any ICS firmware I've tried. And this band must be supported by my hardware because T-Mobile USA is branded right on the back.

Have you tried looking at the options in the manufacturer testing menu ?
Under "Tablet information" you have some choice and an extra menu that lets you select GSM/UMTS bands and see other bits of the radio. In there you maybe find something, you can for example change from GSM, WCDMA, EvDo auto/only/preferred.

Those are protocols, not bands. There is no option available to select actual numbered frequency bands that I can find.

You are wrong, recovery image is not different and modified time of system image is not different either.
I don't need to decompress each image, enter each directory and compare each file to check if images are different.
Why you want them to be different ?

The change is irrelevant since only the channel name has changed ("austrulia" as already said a couple of post above).

The "select radio band" menu is blank on Mediapad firmwares. In firmwares where it has not been blanked out, the options are "EURO, USA, JAPAN, AUS, AUS2". These are totally undocumented options AFAIK, and they don't seem to allow the user anyway to select individual numbered bands. There are three different HSPA bands used in North America and there is no differentiation between them on this menu.
Again, GSM and UMTS are protocols, not bands. Notice the menu that lets you choose GSM, UMTS etc says "network type", not band.

I am not a telephony expert but you surely haven't explained nor decided if GSM/UMTS are network bands, network types, protocols or all of them together, which is not the matter of this thread.
Here you can find what Wikipedia says about GSM/UMTS frequency bands:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_frequency_bands
I also attach a couple of pictures here so there is no confusion about this talk
The only two place I mentioned are marked both with the text "band" (in red in the pictures) so I referred to what I was seeing on screen ("bands") just for references not to teach you anything about telephony.
By referring to what I see on screen I prevent some error on my part and I avoid confusing people further. It was a good tip I gave you.
Edit: it seems I am not able to correctly attach pictures
So.. running the TMO branded springboard, I should install the 301? 302? 303? I would love to run the update as I have like 301b10 on now, I think off hand.

Okay, let's go through this again. What do you need it for? A 2100mhz baseband won't do you any good unless you adjust gains and even then you risk making your unit work harder.

Well, then your backup won't do you any good. You're using an NA baseband.
If you're sure you have an EU unit, you can try flashing an EU backup but you'd be better off flashing one of the newer firmwares I linked in the EnSec thread (specifically the EnSec-EU-0706 for non-May units).
It will change your baseband to an EU, but won't guarantee you a 3G connection. If you have a 1900MHz antenna nothing you do will make it magically connect.
Where can i download a EU Backup? With the original Rom the 3g has worked

Look, let me be frank with you. You're not really giving me any information to go by here. What original ROM? What did you do that made it not work?
Please, stop talking in single-line sentences asking for software you're not even sure is going to fix your problem.
Kuronosan, he don't speak English so good, but I think he is saying he had one of the many 2100 releases with the 2100 antenna, but somehow flashed something that had the 1900 radio in it and now he can't get 2100 reception any more.
Yes, maybe he got a misdirected 1900 unit, with that antenna (what's the difference ? those were clipped a little bit shorter ?), in which case he would have never had any data connection, other than WiFi, but in that case he is Screwed By Omate (tm) and good luck to him.
Ah, then I have a solution for that.
guys i have a question,i m from Greece and i have a problem with my signal..Although it has 2-3 bars outside ...indoors i have nothing
i went to settings/about device,and in baseband version it says moly.wr8.w1315.md.wg.mp.v4,2013/08/14
does it mean i have a 1900mhz unit?if i root it and flash a new rom and flash again the 2100 baseband,is there any chance to work better?

No. Your baseband is most definitely for 2100MHz. The 1900MHz modem is dated in November.
The question is what Antenna you have, and unfortunately I cannot answer that question for you. I do know that when I had my 1900MHz unit tethered to T-Mobile I had absolutely zero issues with signal indoors.
I don't really have a solution for you outside of trying another SIM or carrier. Other than taking it to someone who has a 1900MHz SIM carrier there's no way to test the difference.

Hi Kuronosan,
I have actually the same issue but in reverse as discussed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/omate-truesmart/help/loki-flashable-baseband-zips-available-t2818169
Loki said you might have the US baseband in a TWRP flashable zip? I have a US 1/8/1900 and I flashed another rom that was originally EU based. It works, but it changed my baseband to EU. I can make calls but my data is stuck on EDGE speed. I restored my NVRAM from my previous backup, but my baseband still shows that its EU (MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V4, 2013/08/14)
Would you happen to have the US baseband .zip?

You're welcome.
Hello, I bought the LG G2 D802 from china, I live in Georgia use beeline as my network provider. The phone satisfies all specs for Beeline 4G LTE.
I did all of the tricks described on XDA-Developers (changing to lte from hidden menu, editing build.prop and settings.db). Software which was installed was HKG. I installed resurrection rom but still don't get LTE signal. What should i do now?
Please help
Do you use old sim card or new usim from beeline ?
I seem to have similar problem with 4G.
It was announced today that 4G is available with phone network so I tried most things and can't get 4G.
The phone company told me to wait for lollipop and then try again.
I will update manually to lollipop and see what happens
I have new USIM card.
Maybe B20 is disabled manually?
I installed EUR-XX stock rom now i can't enter LTE-Only testing menu. Toast appears saying not supported
Hmm try RAT...do
*#*#4636#*#*
Go to : phone information
Set the prefered network to LTE/WCDMA.
do not use LTE ONLY other wise you wont be able to receive sms and call
I tried RAT selection already, i tried all of the methods described here.
I even tried other cellular network which supports 4G LTE, still nothing
Try deleting LteSettings.apk reboot and report.

Tried nothing changed.
I checked the cellular provider's website they have feature which auto-detects if phone supports their LTE band and website confirmed that this phone supports it (B3 1800MHZ).
Maybe the problem is here i opened the LG hidden menu -> LTE-only -> Modem Settings -> LTE Band selection. all of the bands are unchecked. (Check attachment). If i check them up nothing changes, there's no save button, opening hidden menu again show that they are still unchecked even if i check them

Well.. applying a different rom as you mentioned earlier will not change your baseband. Even thought the phone has the specs to work on your area, it may not work if the applied baseband is not compatible.
Browse for a suitable baseband, flash it and report back.

Sorry what do you mean in baseband a modem? I thought baseband was dependent on OS like JB baseband or KK baseband.
If you've meant the modem so yeah I have flashed a couple of modems but nothing changed at all. I'm gonna go to cellular provider's office on saturday.

The software claims that it's D802
That doesn't mean it is a D802 actually... there's a lot of cases of China's bought phones that aren't what they should be.
https://cdn.recombu.com/mobile/images/phones/1282/1378840179.jpg its should we written on the back of the phone D802 (under the logo)
I have the exact same problem as op. My phone is an HKG real D802 because imei on back of phone match, and i flashed an Open euro D802 kdz over original HKG. That said, i dont need 4G as my career doesn't support it but it's nice to find a solution for this problem.
Hmmm, i think what you need is to flash modem / radio zip...
I'm from Indpnesia. As I have D802 and I reflashed the SEA v. 20B modem/ radio then recheck lte/wcdma using RAT menu it worked...

pardus classic 7.7
FR 1.2
Bruce.
This morning I flased Pardus 3.2 sensation black and no LTE found.
i have tried all reflashing :
Stock Baseband, 20h baseband (both kitkat)
Stock kernel / then dorimanx kernel,
Bootloader,
Modem/radio ESA 10b
update:....
It works...I get LTE again.
I knoq its a long shot why dont you try flashing other modem/radio. (At least same network provider and make sure its GSM / CDMA network)... If u get no signal effect than just revert your current modem/radio file again...
Cheers,
I would exactly call this an enabler but it enables band 12 on any custom rom for the XT1575. No more needing to do the manual process of flashing back to stock and take OTA. Just flash the zip and reboot.

Thanks @Spasticdroid for helping out.
Please explain exactly what this does.
Thanks!

It enables band 12 on custom roms. There was an issue where band 12 was not getting enabled on MM custom roms.

For those of you on T-Mobile who cannot access BAND12. Before flashing this try this: go to settings and IMEI ,if you have t-mobile sim and it displays IME SV - 01. You have no access to b12,after flashing this if it shows SV - 02. Flash worked and you have access to B12 and VolTE

It doesn't mean you are connected to b12 but it means you can access it. Download lte discovery to view which band you are connected to

I'm pretty sure it deleted your modem files and replaced it with the newest one from the OTA. That's why the people that took the OTA or sideloaded the OTA are able to get band 12. Custom ROMs don't flash modem so the old modem was still on the phone if you were on 5.1.1 when updating to a custom marshmallow ROM.

My original modem zip just installed the new modem from the mm ota. This does that and updates another modem file that was missing in some custom roms. Which enables imei sv 2 for band 12.

Well, thats a great question I never looked into it and it seems that you are right, EU doesn't use band 12 at all. I actually realised that using XT1575's modem I'm limiting myself to a great amount of less LTE band. Basically I leak Europe's specific band 20 which is accordingly to wiki one of the main bans :S.
Do you guys think marshmallow works with 5.1.1 modem files? I want to flash the modem from my stock version so I can get LTE working as it should.

For T-Mobile, just remember folks, Band 12 only helps if you are in an area with poor LTE reception. If you live in an area with strong Band 4 LTE, you will never see it connect to Band 12. I am in NYC and mine never connect to Band 12 since Band 4 LTE is pretty strong in tri-state area.

I am also in NYC and my phone pretty often connects to B12 mostly inside building and when I visit my family inside the apartment only band12.

Most likely not, you won't get wifi or lte at all.
I just got this model of V30+ but didn't know TMobile LTE would not work on it until after I paid. Just didn't read it good enough I guess.
Just wondering if I will still be able to get 4G Data on the phone using TMobile(mintsim) or at least HSPA+ or if its possible to make LTE work on it.
If you flash that to H930G, you'll get s few more U.S. carrier LTE bands. Not all but more.

Is this something that has been tested and working?
Yes, but let me find the post when I get home. Unless someone else finds it before me. It was someone who bought Hong Kong H930DS raspberry color and they wanted more US bands.

I haven't got then phone, it's for my friend in the US, she really wants the Raspberry Rose variant, and on Hong Kong firmware only 1/4 4G bands are supported, however if flashing the European firmware means she gets 3/4 bands that's a lot better and I can tell her she'll be okay to get it

Found the answer to this incase anyone ever needs the answer, flashing this firmware onto a H930DS also includes radio.img apparently, which means it will support the same bands that the H930 does :highfive:

I thought you wanted T-mobile USA. Why do you need dual SIM? But you can go to that thread and search for H930DS. LOTS of people flashed that to get Oreo.

Yea I have 2 Sims. Just got the mintsim prepaid for a year witch uses T-Mobile that I was going to use with my essential but that had a fried board in it I think. Artifacting and crashing constantly. Now I just plan to use both Sims in the dual SIM phone for some extra monthly data since I already have both prepaid service Sims.
So if I were to attempt to flash the euro Rom on my hk v30 would it just be a normal flashing process? Require boot loader unlocking? Is there any detailed outline of the process posted up?
alright thanks the information I read through a good deal of the thread at least to where they claimed it was adding support for more us bands.
One other question. After flashing this will I then still be able to receive ota updates and will it be safe to install them?
It's. A brand new phone I just don't want to take any unnecessary risks. But also of course want to be able to get full service. Don't want to have to sell it off to get another one or anything.
Thanks again.
You do not have to worry about Root or Bootloader unlock when flashing the EU-Oreo, it should be safe. I have my doubts with 4G on T-Mobile's bands though, read this thread first: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/help/lg-v30-unlocked-h930ds-doesnt-t-mobile-t3734810
One should note though that all comments were made prior to the possibility of flashing the EU-Oreo. I cannot test it with a T-Mobile SIM anymore (last post in this thread is from me) but my AT&T SIM gives me more 4G bands than it used to.
Ok I'm still waiting to receive the phone to test it myself. Obviously going to check it out stock first. According to the frequency check site it supports 2/5 bands for T-Mobile and metropcs. But doesn't support the protocol supposedly. I guess I'll see. I have both at&-t and T-Mobile Sims to test.

The frequency check site has been wrong before. I am not talking specifically about this situation. I've not investigated the H930DS and T-mobile, but in another thread about another V30 it was like they didn't even know the LTE bands AT&T currently uses. Seemed outdated information like, 4 years out of date.
Ok i got the phone today and only getting edge connection.
The phone i received is the india version h930ds. Will this make any difference when flashing the eu oreo firmware?
Also for flashing i am assuming i just need to download the eu open market firmware put the phone into download mode and load lgup via uppercut?
One other question does it matter if my phone is fully updated or not with the current india firmware?
Thanks.
Going to take me several hours to download on my internet connection so just waiting on it to finish now and trying to get as much information as possible in the meantime.

No, it doesn't matter which DS variant you are flashing from.
No, you don't need current India firmware since you'll be switching to Europe KDZ.
See the Euro KDZ thread for instructions.
Im sorry i don't see any flashing instructions. Just an outline of different methods such as uppercut or using model specific files or development lgup. Dont mean to be a pain just want to verify im doing everything right before i try. I did something like this on my g6 as well and the procedure was.
Put the into download mode
Launch lgup using uppercut
Select the kdz to flash
Not sure on this whether to set it to upgrade or refurbish? I think refurbish just wipes all user data like a factory reset?
Thanks.

Most people used upgrade. Try that first.
You can always reflash with refurbish if you don't like the result.

Ok thanks for the information. Its a brand new phone so i don't want to take the chance of doing something wrong but at the same time i have 12months of prepaid 4g LTE service that i would like to fully utilize.
Yeah ok. Finally finished and flashed this morning. Made absolutely no difference and actually broke dual sim support for me.
Do i have any other options?

When you open the >firmware page< and select your region and then your firmware version, there is a short instruction.
Correction: I want to flash the U.S firmware (w/U.S lte bands) onto my international version. No PC access so I want to use KINGROOT!

If they differ in hardware, don't even try.
They are the same.
In general, US versions have support for different radio bands than the international versions. If you upload the US firmware to the international version, you may lose not only gsm radio support, but also WiFi.
Try looking for a method to activate the US band in the current firmware. This is the only safe method.
Once again thank you for the your help! But as you might know they're saying this phone will be no good after Verizon shuts down it's 3G.I already switched from AT&T to Verizon earlier this year. I was told I can just do what I was asking but if you know of any way possible I can save my phone? I know it needs band 14 for AT&T. I already did the apn thing but it's not enough. They still read it as 3G. This phone has extreme sentimental value to me.
