I have a Note 2 SGH-T889V from Wind.
I've been playing around with a few roms and have been using LiquidSmooth for a while which is pretty good, but I would like to try out CyanogenMod.
Has anyone installed CM on a T889V before? Will it be safe to wipe everything, flash the t0ltetmo nightly from here, and then flash the stock T889V modem from here?
EDIT: Also, I would like to update my CWM from 6.0.1.4 to 6.0.3.0; Do I get the T-Mobile (recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.0-t0ltetmo.img) one or the HSPA+ one? I don't want to use ROM Manager to update it because it says my device is GT-N7105, which it isn't.
You shouldn't have to flash your modem going between ROMs. Searching for T889V and bootloop will in fact tell you it's not that good an idea.
The GT-N7105 is the international LTE Note II. The CWM for it will also work for the other LTE Note II variants, including the T889V. The one thing that does come to mind is that its build.prop will report an N7105 to scripts that check for device prior to flashing. Not usually that big of a deal.

I used this root method: http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-2-easiest-method/
Then, to flash ROMs, I wipe everything, flash the T-Mobile ROM, then the Canadian modem. I have flashed this way around 5 or 6 times without any problems..

Be careful not to flash a T-Mobile radio. I lost my IMEI and had to follow a bunch of complex steps to get it back. I can't put a Wind modem on my phone anymore though.

Flashed this to the SGH-T889v (canadian version)
Got my signal back (it says no sim as it didn't before)
Problem is there is still no IMEI.....
Tried reflashing all components a few times but still nothing.
Is there no end to this issue!?!?!?

Checked all the Bell network APN settings...still says NOT REGISTERED TO NETWORK
Any suggestions?

Hey Shawn,
Wipe data then flash the Stock ROM, flash the flashable Modem.bin and you're all set my friend!!!
Im basically a genius.
I flashed my original rom to the t-mobile one and did NOT make a backup
Now i have a sgh-t889v with t889 rom
Ive tired everything including what adidas recommended but nothing...big NO SIGNAL and no IMEI
I msg'd someone who's got the exact phone as me but they have not replied. He's rooted so he should be able to make a full nandroid backup but no reply....

Hi, excuse me. Do you this modem note 2 T-Mobile can flash to N7100 international? So the result for N7100 can get 1700 Mhz freq using T-Mobile network service without EDGE??? Please answer my noob question. Sorry my english not perfect. Appreciate. Thank you.

Greetings all.
I rooted my sgn2 using the toolkit and installed TWRP.
Then proceeded to install Omega rom.
In TWRP, I wiped cache dalvik syetem, factory reset.
I now have my IMEI as unknown and I do not have a efs backup. Is there a way to restore my imei/efs partition? I have searched all of xda without a resolution. I seriously wished I backed up my efs partition.
Please let me know if there is anything I could do.
Thank you,

I have a CMW backup of the SGH-T889v from a brand new device which has all stock firmware and modem and all...
I took the backup and tried to restore on shawns phone however the Baseband still remains the same it wont change it....
I donno why it is happening i thought when you do a cmw backup it backs your modem and all....
Any suggestions?
I've seen this happen with the original note with "0" as the IMEI. i had to do a warranty swap.
So what I am gathering is that some people flashed a rom that was for the international note 2 and now they have no imei or signal is that about right? So was the rom posted in tbis fourm? Or did they just do something really stupid?

Ha your probally right. I havent gotten a chance to read up on this phone yet I worked 102 hojrs last week when I am not workin I am sleeping. But that is over now. One thing I noticed is it seems like samsung might have used one design for all the different carriers but I would assume that the software is still a little different than the international one.
hey i flashed this modem , also flashed to original stock rom, no luck i get imei as 0/00 and if i put sim card it shows searching
please helppppp thanx
I'm a noobe just learning the game of flashing roms. I have my phone rooted and a back up done and some rooted apps like tibu but that's all. I'm looking in this sectionbut most of what I see is for at&t. I read that at&t roms can be used on Telus, bell or Rogers. But then I read the opposite as well. I really don't want to brick my phone. Whats a great rom and kernel that will work for me? Good customization and battery performance. I also have cwm touch installed. Thanks

This is accurate for all third party ROMs; it's not true for the Odin-flashable stock images on account of the different modem firmware between AT&T and Canadian models.
As an example, my Telus device is running CyanogenMod 10.1 just fine...
So if I can install it through cwm its ok as long as I have the right model but if I have to flash it using odin I need to have a Telus rom?

Basically, yes.
Pretty much any d2att rom you find should work. As long as you can get to recovery you will be okay. Have fun, you're on your way to becoming a flashaholic!

I just get an T999 S3 from TMobile, already SIM unlock, Root.
Already have downloaded CM 10.1.2 d2tmo Stable ROM, also downloaded Gapps 20130812, CMW/Odin Files.
My main question wash if is really necessary have the Bootloader Unlocked? or I can just proceed installing all on the right order...
1) Flash CWM with Odin
2) Copy CM and Gapps files on MicroSD
3) Reboot on CWM
4) Wipe all
5) Install .zip files CM10.1.2 and Gapps
And I believe Im ready...is that OK?
If I want to return to stock ROM..I have to just install via Odin the Stock ROM? Or there is something else.
First time on CM I hope someone en-light me.
Thanks a Lot!!!

Yep, Odin will put the stock rom back on for you. You will lose all your data though, so make a backup.
Also, I think it's rude to hijack someone's thread. Make you own with your own question.

I'm sorry for make an question here (hijack). But I think my question helps a little.
People I know highly recommends CM10 Stable version for S3 TMO over nightly since stable have almost no bugs. I download CM10.1.2 but have questions and doubts about how to install.
I will trie to install this one in next week and post as soon install CM10.1.2

If you have the T999/T999L/T999N, you should stick with what was made for that device. Metro was recently bought by tmobile. Previously, the S3 for that network was SPH-R530 or something like that.
most likely the cwm and cm for metro were made for that older model device. When T-Mobile took over, the Metro S3's are now T999N which for our purposes is identical to the T999L. (Read my thread linked in my sig). If you have the older model metro s3, use cm built for it. If yours is T999 variant, use that version instead.

That CM was likely for the old ?Sprint? variant for metro. I wouldn't use it on the new one. d2tmo should work.
And odin won't wipe your data, but you will have to factory reset, which will.

Hello,
I have an unlocked Tmobile Note 3 (running on AT&T network) and I would like to know if I could install roms from AT&T version on it? If so, do I need to do anything special for it?
I was just about to post the same question. I am still trying to search for a way to get ISIS working and at the same time not tripping Knox. I think this method may be it. I read some folks on the AT&T forum (AT&T Note 3 running on T-Mobile network) got ISIS working by flashing a T-Mobile based ROM.

Yes the AT&T Roms will work fine. You just need to follow these steps.
1. Backup
2. Wipe
3. Install AT&T ROM
4. Install T-MO n900t TW kernel of choice
5. Install n900t NFC/WIFI fix zip (this is necessary for international ROMs to work so I assume you need it for ATT also. I did it and it works fine for me) FOUND HERE

Honestly, KNOXRAID was the best one...but that got shut down due to some drama. Not sure if the download files are still available but that's what I was running. I've heard good things about the BOBCATROM port too, but that was uploaded by the same guy so I dont know if the links are there still. I think you can try any of those safely. You have to be careful on the international ROMs though because if you don't download the right ones for your phone it will wipe your internal memory (PITA).
I also edited my first post to include a link for the NFC / WIFI fix.

Ya, it took me couple of hours to get everything back up but then I installed Wicked ROM and not its back to square on. I'm stuck in boot loop. :crying:. Will probably have to start all over again from stock.
Hi all,
I was hoping one of the resident geniuses could help me here because searching and experimenting haven't worked yet. I bought a i337 because I'm on AT&T and when I found I could only run TW roms via SS (it was already on 4.4.2), I bought a M919, and I've got it rooted and running TWRP 2.7.0.1 and some new roms. I've been able to flash i9505 and M919 roms and then an AT&T kernel, but whenever I flash a i337 modem it doesn't take. The baseband continues to show it is on M919 NB4. Can anyone help me understand how to get the i337 modem? I can make and receive calls, but do sometimes see some signal drops and I understand this is the way to go.
Thanks!
I meant to mention I am flashing via recovery, and I understand ODIN may work but that runs the risk of impacting my bootloader (which I think is bad, as i337 is locked and I have a M919 anyway)? Can someone confirm? I'll keep trying recovery zips, but I wonder if it's something in the Tmo NB4 or bootloader keeping it from sticking?
Do not flash i337 modems.. What was the firmware you were on before you started flashing?

The phone came with latest Tmo firmware and the NB4 baseband. I'm running Phoenix ROM now, Ktoonsez kernel. Can't say for sure yet because I just got on this combo, but as I've been testing over last 24 hours I've seen a LOT of my phone dropping signal when the screen locks or sleeps (I think). I get the crossed circle and I have to go into Mobile Networks and have it search for a network to get my cellular signal back. So it isn't the Tmo modem impacting this? Will I get LTE? Are there any better options if the signal keeps dropping short of going back to that bloody i337?
Try flashing fenny's NB4 firmware with Odin, the modem shouldn't be the problem there have been people with same issues running T-Mobile. Flashing firmware should fix it.. Try running stock for a few days and see if you keep getting drops

This really can't be repeated enough.
NEVER flash modems meant for another device. Never.
Ever.
Man, I could swear I've seen folks recommending to do exactly that for all the bands to work properly and for the best signal. Thanks for setting me straight folks!
