Hi folks
As mentioned in a thread I posted a couple of weeks back (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1207476), Samsung have very annoyingly blocked WiFi channels 12 & 13 on US-originated Tab 10.1s with their latest TouchWiz UX update.
I've got a Tab that I had been using quite happily on chan 13 (minimal interference from neighbouring WiFi APs), but after the updated it wouldn't connect at all, yet could see other networks. Moving the AP channel down <12 solved it, but this only works for my home AP that I have control over. The one at work is on either 12 or 13 and therefore now isn't visible.
The guys at PC Pro have tried their UK-purchased Tab 10.1 and it's working fine, so it seems to be just with the US ones that Samsung have blocked this.
I've logged a support request about it but don't hold out any great hope of them fixing it.
I was therefore wondering if anyone could think of a good way to re-enable this. Do the Tabs had a modem/radio type bin that could be flashed along the lines of the SGS II? If so would this do the trick or are chans 12/13 being blocked elsewhere?
Thanks for any suggestions - as you can see at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223978 I'm not the only one who has run into this problem!
(PS - have already tried a full factory reset before anyone suggests it )
What about flashing a Euro rom, would that then enable the extra channels?
That's the kind of thing I was wondering about, but wasn't sure if it would work or not.
My model number is GT-P7510UWYB and it's 16GB WiFi only model.
Do you think it would just be a case of getting hold of the stock August update for a UK device (and if so, any links? ) and installing it via Download mode/Odin or would it object to that saying it's not a valid ROM for that model?
I don't know I.f there's a newer rom than those shown on the samfirmware site, someone with more knowledge than me may point you in the right direction.

Moving to Q&A
Hello there everyone. I'm on AICP 11 MM ROM with quite an old build, 17th of September.
For now, everything is going really super smooth with my ROM and all setup and configuration.
Also, my app list is quite lengthy (312 installed apps) so I dn't really want to start from scratch.
.
Is there any way I can enable native VoLTE (calling from dialer with Jio SIM in India) without changing ROMs or shifting to Nougat?
Maybe somethiing like flashing a specific Firmware or modem version which has been CONFIRMED to enable VoLTE or something?
Anything that works . . .
.
I searched quite a lot in xda before posting, but wasn't able to find much that would work for me. Any suggestions?
.
Also, I'm posting a screenshot of my current system details. Please let me know if some specific baseband version has seen VoLTE as CONFIRMED working. There you go -

If you want VOLTE on marshmallow you have to use MIUI.
You can try your luck with this patches for Cm13 on this thread

Tried with these patches, but don't work in AICP, maybe because they're CM13-specific.
Any other way to make it work on AICP itself?

So, I'm planning to flash MODEM_419D_V.00050 to my x829, running stock 16s. I don't want to flash a whole new different region stock ROM (23s) just to get the modem upgraded. Also, I've read that the modem files contain the fingerprint firmware as well, so that's a plus. I want to do it because I've always liked to have the latest versions of everything and keep it all updated. Just for the protocol - I don't have any modem or fingerprint problems with the stock 16s that my phone came with.
What should I backup, so I can go back if something goes wrong, or my network starts misbehaving? And how should I do it?
Thanks.

16S is too old. Get yourself on something more recent with a more up to date security patch level.

419D is newest right? Than is 23S?
Do you know changelog or diference. I have problem with GPS on Small EUI V10 where is newest modem.

Not sure about the radio files. I use the one from 23S. Regarding ROMs, the D ones are the more alpha or early beta experimental dev test ROMs. 23S is a stable beta I believe. I think 21S is actually the last official Chinese release. 19S was the last Indian release, maybe? Looks like that side of LeEco's business has gone down the pan, so wouldn't be surprised if they don't release any more. LeEco seem to be in a bad way financially, so praying that we at least get an N based update before they go pop!

16s is the latest for x829. Actually, it's the only available US ROM and from that point of view it is the most up-to-date of it's kind
Makes no difference which you use as every one of them has bugs. Using 20s Chinese currently and can't get Gmail to come through auto and sometimes don't get texts sent to me and often sends 5 texts to someone when I send just 1.
I am very tempted to sell it and but a oneplus 3.

That's one of the most tragic truths of this phone. LeEco abandoned US users of this model, in favor of a specific US model. The 16S modem is the only one I have found which supports WiFi Calling with Tmobile (which is the only US carrier which supports that feature on this phone.) So we are stuck using it, unless LeEco releases an update which incorporates this functionality.
Basically, if you are in the US, and need WiFi calling, don't bother trying other ROMs which are incompatible with the 16S modem, or other modems. It probably won't work for you.

You're right about the incompatibility. I was using Small EUI (23s) rom and tried to flash 16s modem on top of it but then the phone refused to boot up.
how can I find my modem version?

I have 23s modem installed but my baseband version shows a 19 in the name not 23 as per pic which is strange. I installed it again too to make sure I had installed it ok.
No, it shows 33 , take glasses on

Yeah but if you look at the modem download page all Chinese modems end in 33 lol. It was just the 1.9 at beginning I was referring to and nowhere on that baseband does it mention 23s?
What Modem had D466? Anybody tested?
Did flashing modem actually helped someone with "dead" fingerprint Reader?
I read in other threads that flashing developer modern helps.
But the question is how to back up original modem?

Heyyo, boot to TWRP and go to backup and scroll down to firmware and select it... She's hidden at the bottom of that scroll menu. Took me a bit to figure it out heh
Tbh I find Chinese firmware 23s or 26s better. They are technically modem firmwares but they do also affect fingerprint reader in sleep mode
Thats fine, I installed the latest dev modem firmware. I thought it may help me see something in qxdm, most monitoring fields seem to be empty for me. But it didnt help... The providers here are using bands 1, 3 and 7 mostly. I get less than 50mbit downlink speed most of the time I know the connection is good in the area because when I put the sim into another phone, I get up to about 150mbit.

Ah you might benefit then from checking your band selection from this thread but I'm not 100% sure.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/guide-unlock-bands-leeco-le-max-2-fix-t3439154
Tbh I myself use Chinese 26s firmware since I find it gives me the most reliable signal and the fingerprint reader speed is ok. Developer firmwares to me are the opposite with fastest fingerprint reader but worse signal quality
https://yadi.sk/d/woKdrlRrv8yhr/Китай
I'm on the Chinese 26s from that link. the one without 0509. Of course results vary from user to user so you can always tinker to your heart's content as to which modem firmware compliments you the best.
I have a problem with Lineage OS unofficial ROM on Xperia Z3 Compact Tablet from this xda thread.
When mobile connection (using SIM card) is established, Android overwrites allowed Wifi channels settings with restrictions, based on countries. This is a well known feature, but for Russia it seems that any 5Ghz channel becomes restricted - even through channnels 34-165 are legally allowed in Russia (I can't see any networks, no matter what channel I use on my access point).
I want to find, where those restrictions are located, and fix them with appropriate values (I suppose there should be some kind of table with those values). I am sure that this is possible because 5Ghz works both on this device with official ROM and on xiaomi device with official and Lineage OS ROMs.
Unfortunately, ROM author is not interested in fixing this bug so I want to do it myself. I managed to get 5Ghz working using Magisk, Xposed Framework and module for fixing region - but that solution is damn unstable to I want to avoid it and make a normal fix.
By the way, setWifiCountryCodeFromMcc is met in this source and it calls "setCountryCode" from here. I just need to go a little bit deeper to find restricted channel options - but I don't know where and how.
AT&T and T-Mobile detonators for the S8/S8+/N8 PIE
Thanks to user bigTINY779 I now have a twrp flashable tmb csc features working on pie with my SM-G955N. Should work on most Exynos S8/S8+/N8 PIE - SM-G95X
Please understand the risks of flashing this. Dont try if you dont know how to restore and start over.
I was given permission to share as this is not my work.
I will give no support on this I am just passing it along to the public.
Features include:
wifi calling
caller id
spam protection
recent app protection
call recording
enable camera during call
video calling
Based on the latest omc from n950u. Clean rom flash is recommended but not required, and as always, MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR EFS AT LEAST! Can be flashed directly after the rom, no need to boot first. ENJOY!
Thanks is also due to tekhd for his original detonators

Added S9/S9+ and TEST version of N9. If you try the N9 please let me know if it works well. I don't have N9 to test...
I am using the TMO detonator on a Samsung S950FD and it works well (WIFI calling, VoLTE both working), including on a T-Mobile MVNO. I am wondering though if there could be a similar detonator prepared that would be for CSC XAA (which is the US market generic unlocked CSC). Using XAA would allow the same functions to work without having to reflash the phone each time the operator is changed. What do you think?

Is this as simple as restoring a rom backup and possibly also restoring EFS or is there something more to this that I should research?

Hi, since you know more about this phone I have a quick question
I got G955N and I'm running on this ROM
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...--s8-cross-device-development/thread-t3822134
which is pie based, and I'm going to switch with Verizon in future so I installed
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-1-0-t3636739
last CSCSelection_SM-G95XF_V2.0.0_O_Final.zip which I believe is for Oreo base
it went fine, but after that my phone is mad laggy and I'm keep getting IMS service isn't working. is there any way I can add those CSC for USA base networks manually so it can work with Verizon and others USA base network?

ATT_pie_detonator_bigTINY_G95X_N950.zip for AT&T
TMB_pie_detonator_bigTINY_G95X_N950.zip for T Mobile
T-Mobile detonator works perfectly and I love that you kept it minimal to only get all the needed features working.
I'd appreciate a T-Mobile bootlogo removal though tbh
Sorry, I have done quite a few searches, but haven't found any clear instructions on how to install these files. I have a N950F, but use it on ATT, and would like to get wifi calling working. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm new to this. I also am unclear on how to install.
G950F, TWRP 3.4.0 and Magisk 20.4 running. Using Tmobile.
Is this something I have to flash via TWRP or via Odin? And how do I tell which Tmobile file to flash?
I went ahead and just tried to install it the best I knew how.
Phone: SM-G950F Firmware: G950FXXSBDTJ1 Security Patch: October 1, 2020
Carrier T-mobile USA.
I used TWRP 3.4.0 to flash “TMB_pie_detonator_bigTINY_G95X_N950.zip”.
In "Settings>Software Information>Service provider SW ver."
initial CSC was XEU/XEU/OPS.
post detonator it is TMB/TMB/OPS.
I note VoLTE and Wifi Calling options are now present in the drop down menu.
I note HD+ icon during calls now.
I note the 'signal strength' icon on the top now says 4G LTE instead of just 4G.
I'm experiencing poor signal strength and was hoping flashing detonator and getting CSC 'right' for TMO network would help. It has not. Still low download (~5Mbps) and very poor upload (~0.1-0.05Mbps).
My home/neighborhood has lackluster 4g coverage, one of few spots. The TMO-Sprint merger is partly to blame - they're transitioning sprint towers to TMO/making infrastructure changes due to merger. I'm informed things should improve in coming months.
I have yet to test whether everything works 'right'. So far it looks okay, but i'm setting up the G950F as opposed to using it, and instead to give up trying to make the G950F work as I need it to on Tmobile and go for a Pixel 4a 5G on Google Fi and hope that the difference in phone, and the 5g, and ability to switch between networks will meet my needs.
As another poster noted, the tmobile startup splash screen is annoying. I imagine one could hunt for which file to remove from the detonator and repackage it.
That said, thanks to the developers for this tool. It allowed me to answer whether or not optimizing the G950F for the Tmobile USA network would improve signal strength. As such I no longer have to wonder if there was a way to make the G950F work for me and perhaps in the future, when coverage improves, I might find the G950F works quite well and I can give it to a family member.
Does anyone happen to have the files and can reupload? This may be one of the last ways of obtaining t-mobile functionality for the international S8.
I am specifically looking for " TMB_pie_detonator_bigTINY_G95X_N950.zip "
The mega download link must have recently died... (or it just doesn't work for me?)
@LastQuestion any chance you still have it since you posted fairly recently and seemed to have success?
I need these files too
@Puremin0rez were you able to get them?
