[Q] Is there a way to configure the Bell i747M for a Wind SIM

I have unlocked my phone by downgrade to 4.1.1 stock rom.
When I insert the Wind SIM, detected the network but only the roaming network, and I can not register to that network.
When I change to a Rogers SIM, everything works fine.
Does anyone know if there is a way to configure the Bell i747M for a Wind SIM?
Thanks a lot.

Well first if you havn't done it you need to unlock your phone which you can do for free by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34661189&postcount=1 (It's for the note 2, but it should all work.)
If your phone is unlocked already than you probably need to set up the apn settings which you can acces from system settings>more>mobile networks>Access Point Names. Create a new one and fill in the info in this http://www2.windmobile.ca/media/pdfs/Non-WIND/Non-WIND_Device_Configuration.pdf document.

Still not working.
Hi FoxTrotz,
Thank you very much for your reply. I have unlocked my phone and followed your steps with no lucky.
When I manually search the network operators, I get Rogers, Telus and Bell. Can not find Wind network.
Any other ideas?

Enable WIND and Mobilicity on a SGS3 I747/I747m

Yes, here's an idea: SEARCH THE FORUMS...see that little box on the top right of the page that says SEARCH ALL FORUMS? Well, if you had typed "S3 WIND" into it, you would have come across this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2344627
Also, for future searchers: You cannot see/register on a network band that your phone does not support. the SGS3 I747/I747M does NOT see or have access to the 1700/2100 AWS bands, so it will never see them via the network search or allow registration on them until you force unlock the AWS bands.
MOD, please close thread.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

[Q] Wrong carrier name

When I flash p.a. rom the carrier name is always wrong. I have the correct apn. I try to select the carrier manually but it doesn't work. I'm on AT&T and it says ROAM as the carrier. I'm not actually roaming, it just has the carrier name as ROAM. On cm based roms it shows as AT&T so I know it's not my sim card or location. Any help is greatly appreciated!

You can change the carrier name by using xposed framework and installing 'X blast tools'. Inside you'll find the option for changing your carrier name.
Hope this helps

I need help on samsung note 4 N910v

My friend brought an original refurbish Samsung N910v android version 5.01 which was working with GSM 2G if not 3G until when I tried to update to new version android v6.0.1. In the menu>setting>about when I checked first before anything it showed me N910 F v5.01 but in boot mode Odin it was N910v.The problem started when I just typed *#9090# the phone immediately started reboot loop. I have managed to unlock the boot loader and root the phone installed custom rom version 6.0.1 by Paul Pizz rom VRU2CPJ2.r-1 but still can not have 2G or 3G GSM network. Please help to revive the phone again whether it meant to go back to 5.0.1 that would work with gsm cause am full stack now.

Have you checked to ensure you have the APN information in place? I have a Galaxy Note 4 N910V now (just got it a few days ago) and when I put my T-Mobile SIM in it from the very first time I have to manually put in the APN data - on custom ROMs it's usually picked up and there automagically but not always so, my suggestion is that you check to make sure your APN information is currently there as it should be.
Settings - More - Cellular networks - Access Point Names - make sure the one you need to be using is selected and if it's not then you'll have to put that info in manually and save it.
As for the actual model number, take the battery out and see what the model number is on the sticker in the battery compartment area - if the sticker isn't there then it could be a device that someone has done some experimenting with because that info can be changed. The sticker should be there, of course, but sometimes people take 'em out when they're mucking around with stuff, who knows.

The APN will be your network. Are trying to use Verizon? If so, you should have a spot to tic the VZWINTERNET. If not, then you have a sim card issue.

Is the sim from verizon? If you have a good account go to a corporate store and have them give you a new one. It's free.
Also, what are your APN settings and I will compare to mine. Everything works on mine.

the fone I have came from china ,am in Africa and remember I told you it was working woth N910f firmware version 5.0.1.All am asking is there anyway I could make this fone work again on Gsm network, cause all it says after re flash is the card is not from verizon

- N910VVRU2CPJ2_FullFirmware_NoAboot<--- Full Framework with no aboot so you will not re-lock bootloader, but will unroot and restore back to 100% stock. once your on the full stock check if your connections are working fine, if they are then install custom rom, otherwise change the sim card

go in settings, connections and select network mode to global, should be fine

LTE connection problem

Hi All,
I'm looking for help with this odd issue I can't seem to solve:
SGS-I747M, originally from Bell, unlocked and flashed with Telus stock firmware; testing with Telus SIM card. Only able to _functionally_ connect to HSPA(+) network: when trying to get LTE, the phone shows "LTE" but no internet, no SMS; I'm able to place/receive phone calls.
Tried editing the LTE-related NV items (as referenced elsewhere on this forum) -- the changes don't stick, and the values revert to the original (interestingly, they are the same as on an original Telus phone that gets LTE no problem!).
I made sure the modem is from Telus stock ROM.
This issue is obviously not a show-stopper, and the phone would be totally usable on Telus network, but I'm just curious: the hardware is the same, the software is the same... what the heck is the issue?
Could someone plz point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
Alex

You have an LTE card? I have Public Mobile which is a Telus sub that runs off the Telus towers and I can get LTE on a stock i747m.

Of course. It is my primary, Telus "proper" card. I get LTE on a former Rogers unlocked I337M stock Lollipop, as well as a former Rogers unlocked I747M with stock 4.3 (not to mention the Telus I747Ms I have... I rescued all my other phones from a trash bin, restored the glass on some, swapped motherboards and screens on some).
APN settings are also correct.
thoughts?

If all of the parts are original and there is no damage, I'm at a loss as to why there is no connection on LTE.
Have you tried changing the csc to telus using the dialler menu? Maybe it needs the stock telus ROM?

CSC = TLS. So I'm at a loss as well. Hence the question to the community

LG-G710AWM firmware question

I'm wondering how are the carrier firmwares provisioned in the Canadian model (LG-G710AWM). I purchased mine through Fido.
Do all carriers get their own firmware, or is it provisioned by the SIM card. Like for example, if I install a Telus SIM card into my Fido G7, it will prompt a reset to install Telus customizations?
