According to spectrumgateway.com/compatible-phones , the Moto E 4G LTE (2nd Gen) XT1527 is band 12 compatible. Can the XT1528 be made band 12 somehow, or is there a physical hardware difference between the devices?
What I gathered reading around here.
* Firmware images are available for T-Mo 1527. However I read that only the 5.02 firmware has band 12 working
* The bootloader is locked on the verizon device
Someone suggested that it might be possible to use part of the 5.02 firmware files for the radio for the 5.1 firmware, to enable band 12, but so far one person claimed that it did not work. . Looking at the number of views this thread has gotten, it appears there is a lot of interest in getting band 12 working on the verizon handset. If any of my statements are not correct, or otherwise, feel free to correct me
Verified the bootloader is locked on my 1528: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b
* If it was not the case, then it might be possible to flash a firmware which enables band 12. Then we need a way to unlock the bootloader to enable band 12.

Hi,
i own a HTC One S (16GB) device, am running a custom rom (MaximusHD 10.0.1), Android 4.2.2, Htc Sense 5.0, rooted, TWRP 2.7 recovery, HBoot 2.16, Radio 1.20.50.05.16, Carrier is Tmobile, supercid 11111111 and bootloader unlocked. i recently installed maximusHD 10.0.0 everything works fine expect for the network connectivity, i can only make use of 2G (edge) signal but i can't switch to 3G only. Whenever i switch to 3G only my networks goes off but when i switch back to 2G it works perfectly please i would be glad if you guys can help me out
You have the official Tmo version or an international version of the phone? That rom is for the international version and might not be set up to properly utlilize the bands of Tmo service 100 is the first thing that comes to mind.
Confirmed: International version of One S does not utlilize any of the bands for T-Mobile past 2G / Edge.
From HTC's website:
HSPA/WCDMA:2
Europe/Asia: 850/900/2100 MHz
GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
850/900/1800/1900 MHz
T-Mobile HSPA/WCDMA uses a combo of the 1900 Mhz frequency and a combo 1700/2100 AWS band.
I don't know if I get you correctly but if this is what you mean my device displays either GSM OR WCDMA so that mean I have the official tmobile version
I'm confused...you don't know if your phone came from T-Mobile or not?
My HTC one s is from T-Mobile, pls can help with the situation would really appreciate it
Ok. When you installed the rom, did you also install another radio or firmware package as well? As in the one that was listed in the OP of the rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2445392 ? If so, that is probably why. The rom and radio are for the international version of your phone, not the one from T-Mobile. Now, obviously the phone are so similar that the software works on both versions. The only difference is the data bands that are supported for 3g/4g and the radios that interface with those bands. So, if you have never changed your radio like it was suggested in the thread for that rom - change your rom to one based off of T-Mobile software. If you have changed the radio, then flash one for the T-mobile version, and you should be fine. If it doesn't work after that, you'll just want to make sure both the rom and radio are for the T-Mobile version.
Thanks man, I think I messed up my device and a newbies to this time installation things. I actually followed the instructions given in the maximushd Rom, I flash the firmware packages with my tmobile version device. Pls what can I do to fix this I need your help

Are you S-Off?
If so: http://d-h.st/7V7 - It's a large file with the Aroma Installer to let you pick which radio you want. I believe you'd be looking for the T-Mous 1.13 one. If you aren't S-Off - Don't bother with that.
S-On?
If so, you need to re-lock the bootloader and run the RUU (Rom Update Utility) to get everything back on track, then you can re-unlock the bootloader and redo the recovery and rom stuff. http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo..._10.30.50.08L_release_309489_signed_ICS_2.exe

During the installation of Sense-Radio-Installer-v6.zip i came across where it asking to select either US BUILD.PROPS OR NO EDIT please what does that mean

When I purchased my phone, back in March 2015, the marketing material listed band 12. Now if you go to the motorola website they have removed band 12, this is such crap.
can anyone help me get back to 5.0.2?

Is your phone carrier branded? If it is, you can't do anything, as the bootloader is impossible to unlock.
The first thing to do would be finding 5.0.2 firmware for your device. This folder has a lot of firmwares, maybe yours is in here. If it is and you're sure it is, you'll need to unlock the bootloader to be able to downgrade, if your phone is carrier branden, I think you can't do this, according to this page. If your phone is a retail one, you'll be able to flash a firmware with band 12, and then re-flash 5.1 firmware with band 12.
I took care of it, my phone is not branded. Motorola support confirmed band 12 was disabled with 5.1. And before anyone asks, no you can't just flash the 5.0.2 radois on 5.1, that doesn't fix the band 12 problem, I tried it.

Yeah I am in the same boat..just bites. Band 12 was the only reason I got this phone.

Hello,
I was wondering if is possible to flash Europe's model Firmware on US model,and get the device work?
I want to do this because I am in Europe and I cannot connect to LTE networks because my oneplus X is US version. So I want to change the firmware to european version to be able to connect to band 3 - 1800Mhz networks that are not supported on US version.
If this is not possible, is there any solution to change the frequency and the band of the device?
Thank you
The firmware is the same. It's the hardware that change.
You can't do anything about that I'm afraid..

Hello, thanks for your answer.
I saw this article : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-unlock-additional-lte-bands-t3519563
and that is why I was wondered if is possible to work on our onyx device.
I knew it was possible on some Xiaomi devices too, but I didn't know some OP could do it too...

That process won't work on most M8 version (including AT&T). It only works on Verizon and (possibly) Sprint, which are really different phones.

It may be possible to add band support by flashing another M8 version's radio baseband (or along similar lines, probably preferable to flash the full firmware or RUU). But you need s-off and change CID to do this. S-off is only possible with sunshine app ($25 US).
Plus, consider that even with the proper band support, your phone may still not support LTE. Since we've seen that happen in many cases. So the money spent on sunshine s-off may be wasted; unless the phone already happens to be s-off.
Ok, so I have the SMG991U and almost every time it's in 5G I have no internet: it feels almost as though there is no date.
Tried poking around and I can't find anything but I'm sure I can't be alone. I think I had the issue with 12 (hard to say as I was carrying two phones at the time - one work one personal). Now that I'm down to one phone and this is my primary, it's pretty damn annoying (to say the least).
There are places where 5G is working fine, but most of the places when it's on 5G it's as though I have no coverage. When it rolls into 4G it's flying.
If I could set it to run 4G only that'd be great BUT there is no option for that. Any suggestions?
I'm running Android 13. All current updates. Baseband is G991USQU5DWa8
Try this dialer code and report results.
It lets you disable 5g bands. The app won't work probably, it was messed up before 13 came out, try it out and let us know!
How To LOCK LTE Band Without Root on SAMSUNG Device
This method is specifically for Samsung Galaxy. Because the default hiddennetwork system application is available. for devices with other brands and types, I haven't tried it. Please follow the following methods: 1. You need to install this app...

" does *#2263# give you the menu to select bands for each SIM slot?
This is another way to choose LTE bands but a little annoying." .
Btw since you're on u5, you could roll back to the one from May 2021, i used the T-Mobile cvdb version. It lets me use that app to easily switch bands as a few bands are worse than dial up in my area
This is Verizon's cvdb

You can roll back... The u5 of your current version means you can roll back to that one I linked which is also u5. After doing this,
Also remember to adb disable the update app
( com.wssyncmldm )!
If it were u6, you can't go to a u5 firmware.
I forget what that's called, some kind of revision number. Older ones could be rooted and use custom roms.
