Please forgive me if this is a dumb question but can I use the ROM from different provider in my tablet ?
I have a P7500 with canadian provider videotron who will not upgrade to ICS or JB. I've been trying without success to use CM 10.1 but I'm wondering if I could flash with an official rom from another canadian provider and upgrade via kies or ota.
I'm assuming everything should be compatible since videotron and rogers both use hspa+ network but are the roms from sammobile unlocked ? Would their Rogers rom work with my Videotron sim card ?
well im using a custom rom with rogers provider
custom roms are not provider dependant.
even using the voice call modem (baseband) and it works great.
i dont see why not..but recovery from odin should not be a problem
in other words difference between rogers p7500 and videotron p7500 is it's bloatware that is not in custom roms
My question is not about custom roms, it's about the official roms available at SamMobile. Are they locked to their providers ?

Hello what is the best radio (modem) for Note Bell ICS ? UCLF6? .. i am still new to it but after ICS official on my Bell note (SGH-I717M) the modem or communication signal is not working intermittently when using LTE signal and when it happens i have to reboot my phone ..
I thought that maybe by upgrading the modem (signal) it would go better but what would be the best for Bell Galaxy note ICS ?
I have seen things like UCLA4 or UCLF6 ... but honestly i cannot know which one for Bell and what is the best one ...
Thanks

I was on perfection roms for a whicle and had tried pretty much all the firmwares. So far the best one is the Stock ICS one.
if someone can post a guide on how to extract the modem, i can do it tomrrow for you.
Would it be the UGLF4 ? the one you are talking about .. as it is the one i have for Stock OTA Bell Galaxy note with ICS ..
Do you know so far if LTE has issues with ICS ?
My other question would be UCLF6 is it for Bell or ATT only or such or for any carrier ?
Thanks
I'm also having the same issue as you. I upgraded to ics on my bell note and sometimes it won't register the network and I would have to reboot.

thats correct it its : I717MUGLF4
Someone could say what it would do if i would flash the modem to UGLF6 or UCLF6 (could make a typo) ? ... would it work good with Bell and be ok ? or just for ATT ?
By the way ... so far if i block the network to get anything but LTE . it seems ok ..
So it seems to be a problem between that version and LTE network .. but i am just a beginning in cell phone .. could not tell for sure
All the the Note modems have the LTE issue unfortunately. I have the same issue and the issue was widespread on all the roms and modems I have tried since May (mostly UCLE and UCLF modems).
On all of those modems, I had to disable LTE to get a solid signal. I did this with a dialer code. If you keep the stock Bell modem and rom, you don't need the dialer method...just go into mobile networks and select GSM/HSPA(AUTO) option (this option did not exist via the settings panel on the 4-5 other ICS roms I used)
The other concern I have now is that I flashed the modem of my bell g note with UCLF6 and when I tried to flash to BMUCLF4 bell. ... IT works but then when I reboot it still remains UCLF6 as a baseband. ...

Flash any ROM you want, branded or unbranded.

Hi all,
I have two Galaxy S2 devices. One which is on tmobile UK that has a baseband i9100BVLPJ and one which is on 3 UK that has a baseband of i9100NELS1.
The tmobile device is on ICS with no official jellybean out yet where as the 3 UK device has jellybean that came out quite a while ago.
Is there anyway of changing the baseband versions so that the tmobile device will be seen as a 3 device and therefore be able to receive official jellybean?
I would rather try and stick to the offical ROM then go down the custom ROM route. If it is possible to change the devices identity over would that mean it would get a new sim lock? Also would the device then receive future 3 UK updates (assuming there Re any in the future).
Many thanks

Flash 4.1.2 to it with Odin. If not wait.

So I can flash and both devices will be identical? Do I need to Root the device or simply flash over? Will there be any problems with simlock?
Flash unbranded firmware mate or galaxy Sim unlock from play store before you do. Test dif Sim if you flash unbranded it wont have lock
Root not needed for unbranded
Hi guys, i want a firmware or custom rom for galaxy gt-i9100t, if there is any rom after 4.1.2 ! , also i have a question: the normal rom for g-ti9100 could be installed on gt-i9100t !!?
There isn't any stock firmware >4.1.2. Yes, you can flash I9100 stock roms on the I9100T, but you may have to use a modem from an I9100T rom if you're using the phone on a network belonging to a carrier who sold the I9100T.
okay 10x for help, i'm so greatfull
What about a i9100 custom rom?! Can i use it to i9100t !?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Yes, of course. the I9100 & I9100T (I also have an I9100T) are exactly the same except for a very slight difference in radio output, achieved by firmware - the modem.
If you flash an I9100 stock rom, it will include an I9100 modem which might (not always though) mess with your connectivity, and as I hinted at in my PP, in my experience, using modems which have been bundled with stock roms released by carriers which sold the I9100T tends to result in the best connectivity. You can check these by searching the I9100T firmwares on Samfirmware, which lists the baseband (modem), and you can then find/download whatever modem in question here.
However, if after flashing an I9100 stock rom your connectivity is OK, no need to change the modem. Only change the modem if your connectivity isn't great. Custom roms don't include modems, so flashing a custom rom won't change your current modem.
i got it, thank you very much for your help and your notes about the modem thing :good: .
Can you flash a different carrier via Odin on this device? asking because I have an AT&t version and was wondering if I could flash a T-Mobile network ROM.
