Hey Guys,
This is my story. I recently brought dis Defy and till date i was using a standby SIM (DOCOMO) in the fone as i was waiting my reliance number to be ported and den finally use Defy with Vodafone.
In the meanwhile, i rooted my fone n had installed Pays-ROM Defy v5.1 Froyo with Ginger feeling [3.4.3-11 based!]. everything was great and i was really enjoying the modded firmware.. Now, today, when i inserted Vodafone sim, i realise, that my fone is unable to catch vodafone's network. it remains on "Emergency calls only" mode while the fone just besides gets full Vodafone's network. However, if i insert back DOCOMO sim, it gives me proper network. I tried to make a manual search on network and it doesnt even display Vodafone and Relicance network. I can bet that i cld see reliance network on defy before i modded the firmware.
I tried to search in forums but I got multiple issues like sim slot being big or modded rom problem or network frequency issue etc.
If at all this is the ROM problem, is thr a way, we can further mod the ROM so i can use VOdafone or i wld hv to go back to the stock rom?? if yrs, then hw is it possible to move from PAYS to stock rom??
PLS HELP!!!!!!!!

It is certainly the base band problem. you can change your base band corresponding with your mobile provider.

so can u convert it to d new one or an u suggest an alternate way to install d update??
I have Arc LT15a from Rogers Canada (fw 3.0.1.A.0.145) and want to upgrade to the newest fw 4.0.A.2.368- however, it is available only for LT15i.
If I simply flash the firmware, will my phone work?
(I know the difference between LT15a and i is in frequencies, but they might be entirely hw based- the fw maybe doesn't even "know" what frequencies it is using)
Thanks!
It works fine I just put the new one using the xda flasher tool works great slot faster you have to manually add the apn but I love it so far. You can find the rogers apn info but if you need it I will post it
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App
it works..
Build 4.0 on my Rogers arc.
You can flash any v2.x firmware onto any phone. The firmwares contain both (software) radios for i and a.
However, flashing an "i" firmware onto an "a" phone will NOT give you "i" frequency 3G support and vice versa ("a" firmware on an "i" phone will NOT give you "a" frequency 3G support).
The HARDWARE radios are fixed.
It also doesn't unlock your phone (buy an unlock code) nor does it re-lock a SIM/network unlocked phone (unlocking in once and permanent).
LT15a update 4.0.A.2.368 ad hoc?
Hello everyone.
Does the 4.0.A.2.368 FW comes with Ad Hoc support? or is it just a urban legend?
I am really trying to get ad hoc support for my Xperia Arc. I have already checked around and didn't find any "success" story..
I tried myself with 4 different wpa_supplicants from around the forums.. for android 2.3.3 (my current version)... I was hoping they will work.. but nothing... most of them don't work at all (either the Wi Fi doesn't scan or the phone crashes completely )
I also read a post saying that CM7.1.0 - FXP045 has ad hoc support can anyone confirm this? what about the other functions? given the comments I read on its thread it seems to be rather bugsome...
I also found out this thread for X10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253087
I will either try that X10 solution to see if it works for ARC ... or go for the update to 4.0.A.2.368 if it has Ad Hoc support already..
I have a Xperia Arc (LT15a) Rogers Branded - rooted - 2.3.3 - 3.0.1.A.0.145
Any help would be great!.. Thanks a lot.
Guys it seems that the uk virgin mobile company has now released the ONE V so PLEASE either say your using GSM version or the CDMA (simless) mobile PLEASE....it will help us to help you and avoid killing your phone
*edit*
VIRGIN MOBILE CANADA YOU GUYS ARE ALSO GSM SO USE THE GSM TAGGED ROMS
thanks

That is correct, I live in the UK and have the One V from Virgin Media - here's to hoping that people don't get mixed up between Virgin Mobile GSM and CDMA and brick their phones

Yeah, I was actually about to suggest [GSM] and [CDMA] thread tags
whacking this back up
Very helpful! Was wondering which one was mine.
Better option
It would be better if we separate the GSM and CDMA threads like "One V GSM Android Development" and "One V CDMA Android Development" to avoid confusion...
Just suggesting guys as it would be easier to maintain threads and mix ups.. :silly:
im a noob and i believe i soft bricked my htc one v from cricket wirless and im stuck

yeah my phone is all but dead outside of bootloader mode. smh. fml. i just paid 250 for it a week ago. and im looking at all this on how to fix it and its a foreign language to me. its gotten to the point where i dont care about the custom firmware no more (which would be awesome tho) and just to get my phone back
helpful , thank you
I wish more people did this, i was unaware of this difference when rooting/ installing roms on my one v and almost bricked my device because No one labelled CDMA or GSM, it caused all sorts of trouble and a few hours more hassle then it should have been

The [GSM Flash Recovery] is for all phones that are sold and made in the USA or countries that are associated. [CDMA Flash Recovery] is for all phones that are sold and made in other countries (Europe, Asia, etc.)

WRONG. The Virgin Mobile USA version is CDMA. And most versions in other countries are GSM. To avoid confusion, I would go with lloir's suggestion. If it has a sim card it IS GSM. If it doesn't have one, it IS CDMA. Some countries in Asia do use the CDMA network, IIRC.
well which is it??
I'm getting ready to order a new phone and I'm leaning towards the One V from Virgin Mobile(I live in the USA). However I have been researching roms and root methods and I want to make sure I am looking at the right threads. Is the USA version of the One V from Virgin Mobile CDMA or GSM????
Virgin Mobile USA uses CDMA.
?
What's the difference between primo c and primo u? And any other primo's that I don't know about?
As far as I know...
PrimoU = GSM 3G
PrimoC = CDMA 3G
Everything else, is the same.

Phone must be in fastboot mode. Connect to your computer with the USB cable that came with your phone. Open a command prompt and cd c:\fastboot(assuming your fastboot folder is on your c: drive). Make sure you have the boot.IMG copied to your fastboot folder. In the command prompt, once your in your fastboot folder type" fasboot flash boot boot.img". If everything was done correctly then it should complete without any errors.

Don't use the boot.img from that rom if you are virgin mobile!!!! Use either JMZ's ics kernel or Simon's sick kernel for CDMA
the reason is the boot.img from that rom is from the GSM version as far as I know that will cause a hard brick of the phone
s-off
if only s-off could be achieved. im trying to fix my aunts phone now and no s-off is really pissing me off because she took the ota and as far as i can tell sick kernel is the only choice to boot any custom rom running this hboot and radio and bluetooth wont work on sick.lets just say she is pissed cause she has to have bluetooth for her job.
Hey guys,
I hope somebody can help me with that one.
Ago some days I got my HTC One M8 and its O2 Germany branded.
After going through all the procedure of unbranding(unlocking bootloader,s-off,changing CID,international european Stock Rom) I found myself in a situation with a not working LTE connection on my phone. I've tried fixing it with one app called "LTE OnOff" to force using LTE only but it didn't work.
The international european Stock rom for my phone just gave me HSDPA or EDGE/GPRS connection but not LTE.
After trying some Rom's in the hope of fixing that problem I reverted back to my branded O2 Germany Backup.
Only that gave me again a LTE connection.
Does anybody know how I can fix that problem and have LTE on other roms too ? Or is that not possible ?
Thanks guys I hope my english isn't that bad, I didn't used it for quiet some time ..
Copy your apn from stock Rom. Grab your stock radio. Flash Rom. Flash radio and enter apn. I'm not 100% but I would think this would work for you.

hi, guys
i bought z1 compact docomo
Android version 4.4.2
Model SO-02F
Version number 14.3.B.0.310
its used, i live in east europe, and its working fine except cant connect to my mobile internet, wifi is working properly, i can call, receive sms and so on...
Im pretty sure that i configured my APN properly checked that like 10 times, still not working.
So i thought, its not working because docomo preinstalled soft is blocking that.
So i think i need to flash my rom to not docomo, to some generic to make mobile internet work, what do you think guys? Should flashing my rom would help?
Can you guys help me, im kind noobish about all this flashing rom thing and i would need a step by step manual/tutorial.
Thank you very much.
p.s. sorry for bad english, not my first language
