[Q] Enabling SGH-i527m for Wind Mobile AWS network? - Samsung Galaxy Mega

Has anyone successfully implemented a qcn for the sgh-i527m to work with AWS networks for wind mobile? If so, can you please post the proper method? I'd like to switch from Fido, to Wind with my unlocked SGH-i527m. I understand wind uses aws, 1700mhz band.
Thank you.

BUMP on an old thread because I'm currently looking for this info

Nothing still.....
no one has even a yes or no answer for this question??

I went to samobile ( the website to download all Samsung firmwares for almost if not all Samsung phone models from every carrier in Canada. ) and downloaded the firmware for 4.1.1 android version carrier " unknown " (how it's listed in the firmware list) downloaded it and used the software "Odin" to flash the firmware onto my phone. (Make sure you make a backup copy of your phone in case something goes wrong and you brick your phone. Flashing is not easy if you don't know what your doing. So read read read about it on XDA Developers before you begin. Good luck

Sorry forgot to mention that I have not switched the mega sgh- i527m over to wind mobile. I am currently working on the galaxy s3 and the Samsung note 2. I will post further info tonight if the mega did successfully accept the firmware for wind or not

Official gb is not out yet

EDIT: After doing a thourgh examination of the pkg it may contain a serious bug that could potentially cause a super-brick. Until I can confirm that it's safe to use DO NOT install it.
As with all updates not on the official server they're not released because they're not fully tested. This is NOT the first time a pkg was released that had serious bugs, do not install.
Do you know what frequencies are used in that model? I know that Dell sells an unlocked models for AT&T and T-Mobile. Does the Olleh model match one of those or are the frequencies different? Does it matter?
I should get my Venue (AT&T version) on Monday. It will be interesting to see what ROM is on it.
It shouldnt matter, nor do I know what submodel is sold in korea anyway
Can I use it on my device?
My build no was 13040.
If this is not build version then how to find my build version.
Indian version, network independent I mean i can use any sim.

If you bought unlocked AT&T version then probably 325, if locked AT&T then 321.

After you flash the right recovery it will work with your SIM - but you will have to switch from Korean to English, and most likely there are no other languages besides those two (I installed Olleh GB ROM on my Dell Streak yesterday and can attest to that). But certain things may not work like USSD codes (if you need to check your data, minute balance with your provider via SMS type service) and so on. I would suggest waiting to see if Dell would have an unlocked retail version out that will support all languages and will not be carrier specific.
Hi guys, need your help. I have a Dell Venue Olleh 2.2.2 Android. I turn wi-fi status bar freezes, hangs up the phone, too. restarts itself. Lost network. Turn off the wi-wi, reboot the phone and everything is normal. Reset all did. It did not help. I apologize for my bad English, I write a transleyt.
When the wi-fi It is on, sometimes (if you pull down the status bar often) Flies system error and he reloaded. If the status bar does not touch, you can enter the market to upload something. Still slower than usual by 50%
Getting anxious in anticipation of the GB ROM. Hope Dell can release it soon.

Problem with mobile network

Hey folks, sorry to open a thread about this question but one of my friend unlocked his p765 (indian version) flashed recovery and then cm10.2 but he is facing problem with network. Most of the times he is not able to call neither he is able to recieve call. The network loss is not permanent but it goes and comes very frequently. Does he need to flash any baseband or as such? Searching the entire forum can be very painful so thought I shud better ask in the general section. Any help appreciated.
Edit: Please ignore, luckily he lost his phone.
i have the same exact problem i had unlocked my p769 with the euro v20b but my phone is usa
---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------
if your using us p769 with t-mobile on custom rom use carloswii5's radio.zip file to flash right baseband
Me too, but only when i update to 4.1, in ICS is fine

Flash different firmware for MetroPCS LG L70 MS323

Hi
I bought MetroPCS LG L70 MS323 unlocked. I am from india and i realised now that this doesnot support 2100hz UMTS frequency which is the one in india for 3G.:crying:
Please help whether i can flash different international firmware to make it work on 2100hz band
Thanks & regards
Bands are your hardware so you can't,download the lg firmware update tool to see if your firmware updates.

Hi i read that the phones are made for all markets. So the manufacturer would have just disabled this band for metro pcs
so i was thinking whether by flashing different firmware we can activate this band

I believe it has the 2100hz band. To check all the available bands on the phone do the following:
1. On the dialer, key in 3845#*323# to bring up the hidden menu.
2. Then select the following menus: WCDMA-Only > Modem Settings > Network Mode
3. You should see WCDMA 2100. From googling my understanding is UMTS is built on top of WCDMA. So technically you're good.
Now why 3G may not work in India - One possibility is you may not have the APN settings configured for the local operator.

Since the title of this thread refers to flashing firmware, I've a question: Can one flash the international (D320) firmware i.e. kdz file without any modification on the MS323 phone? Yes I'm aware about the boot loader being locked. But the goal here is to flash LG's own kdz as is - perhaps by tricking the LG Mobile Support Tool. There is a thread that talks in general about flashing any kdz. But it appears to be leveraging the older version of LG tool. Curious, if any one has tried using the newer version or has alternatives ideas if this can be done.
can we unlock the bootloader
hi thank u for the reply. itried the way u told. there is wcdma2100 available. but when i select this it says fail.
but for wcdma1900 it says pass.
i think since metro pcs doesnot operate on 2100hz this may be disabled in s/w.
tthat is reason i was asking bout flashing diff firmware
can we unlock the bootloader ??
thanks

Check out the Metro PCS LG 70 thread for the D320 firmware (FYI - It's not D320N but D320 may be of alternate interest). There is also another thread about flashing KDZ. If you're able to flash successfully, please do post your experience.

FYI - On a different thread (scroll to post #790), they have now posted instructions on how to unlock the boot loader. Perhaps one can now try to flash the d320 firmware.
Thanks For Reply !! Via Flashing can we unbale 3G Band in India ?

The band may have been disabled via software. If that is the case, you may get lucky. But if the hardware itself is absent to begin with, then the flashing will not help. Unless one tries, one cannot conclusively tell one way or the other.

According to earlier comments#5, the MS323 hardware supports WCDMA 2100 band, but this band is blocked by software.
So, anyone can try this method to unlock 2100 bands.

Did you try enabling the WCDMA AWS Band under modem settings>WCDMA Only( to get this, please dial 3845#*323#)
Try this and see if if you can get 3G sinals in India...
dose any one fixed this problem??
I am also looking to see if the LG L70 can be flashed to a different baseband radio. I'd like to see if flashing the international firmware will not delete any data on my phone. I travel to Spain and woudl like the L70 to be on anything other than the 2G it defaults to. My L70 is BootLoader unlocked, carrier unlocked and rooted. Thanks.

which variant did i receive???

Alright so I'm really confused. The past couple of months I've been flashing ROMs onto my Note 3 (sprint). The correct ones to flash as far as I know are the hltespr... but they never work for me.. instead, I am able to flash hlte only which are for the SM-N9005 which is the international variant, correct? (sorry, I'm fairly new to this) Also, when I post onto xda through my phone, it says sent through my SM-N9005, but when I go to 'about phone' it says SM-N900P, which is the sprint variant. Anyone know what's wrong? Is it possible that best buy mobile gave me the international variant? Every time I flash a ROM something doesn't work for me... With CM11 and C-ROM, i couldn't send picture messages... and with CM12, i can't use data or send texts.
