Lte on non-lte phone - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've just brought back to life my wife's old note 2. Now that it's going again, it's time to start flashing, but it has been so long and now my n7105 is also available with lte, which seems to be most roms.
What would happen if I flash a rom that is for the n7105 but is lte? Could I just flash the radio afterwards?
Thanks in advance

The n7105 has a built in lte chip. As long as you have the correct modem for your device and a lte enabled simple card from your operator you should just get lte

yep. N7105 indeed is LTE device. sawdoctor is correct.
Just an additional info, as long as you flash ROM for N7105 device, you should be fine. So far I flashed on my N7105, any roms, I do not need to care about the radio. So far so good, LTE network always work.
If you feel bored, you can try AT&T rom, but you have to flash modem for N7105.
BUT, don't ever flash N7100 rom into your N7105.
cheers.

I would rather wait for some N7105 Development instead of flashing something which could kill your device.

Possibly, but if it doesn't work, then you risk soft-bricking the device. If it does boot up, your LTE data functionality likely won't work.
Please try and let us know. I'm interested to know whether it's the baseband that determines the LTE capabilities and if so we can basically cross flash any ROMS..

I Get the N7105 now, I want to move data form I9100 to N7105,But I can't use Titanium Backup because not rooted, so how can i root the N7105?

Isn't the 7100 the international version? If so I'd highly doubt it. I've seen many bricks with people flashing the i1900 roms on the epic 4g touch since the bootloaders are different

I got the same device N7105 Note II LTE. I managed to flash the CF-N7100 auto root (the one without CWM) by odin and works very well. It doesn't break the LTE/4g connectivity, nothing wrong on the IMEI no. So you can try it ....
I also use titanium backup to restore my apps and data from GS3..... everything's alright. LTE speed is really amazing....
but please don't try to flash any N7100 rom, someone reported it doesn't work on LTE

I don't think so unless Samsung cheat all of us that N7100 has exactly the same antenna/hardware with N7105

Why would Sammy sell more expensive hardware at a lower price?
I flashed a N7100 rom on a N7105.
All apps work except data/3G/SMS/MMS. No cellular connection.
To recover, I downloaded a stock N7105XXALIJ rom and flash it using PC odin.
Everything is back to normal. 3G, 4G, LTE, sms, mms, data all working.
Then I rooted it using this guide:
http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/s...-rom-flashing-tutorial-r-d-stage-3942841.html
Everything is perfect so far.
Thinking if remove the modem then replace the drivers with the N7105 one, will flashing the ROMS work?

Already tried, it isn't as simple as this.

Are the custom roms for the N7100 model flashable on 7105 model?

I'm gonna buy a note 2 LTE (N7105 model) but i don't know if the customs rom of the note 2 GSM (N7100) are flashable on this phone. I asked this because the custom of the lte model are very few.. and i love to flash roms.. Please answer me!
No they not.
Sadly you are going to have to wait til more come out for the 105

my friend changed his phone in brick after flashing i7000 rom
You can flash 7100 on 7105 HOWEVER you'll need to do some modifying of system files
[HOWTO] Port N7100 ROMs to I317 and N7105
Check out this thread from teh AT&T forums. It'll apply the same in regards to libs, etc files
Also you'll likely need to replace the boot.img/kernel with one for the n7105 and remove any modem from the ROM zip as that would be a way to brick your device

[Q] SGH i317 recomended modem?

Good afternoon
After working on the phone all day trying to figure out how to unlock i manage to do it flashing a roger 4.1.1 modem. The issue now is that i forgot to backup the 4.1.2 and don't know where to look for it or if i should update to a better modem if there is one better than the 4.1.2. Currently on Clean rom 5 is that matters. Thanks in advance.
You can choose from the modem list in my thread one stop. You can try the MK4, but the latest is the MK6 and those are both for AT&T btw...

Thanks for the fast reply, the one i installed was ROGERS_MODEM_I317MVLALJ2 just so i could unlock the network of the phone,i ask cause mk6 seems alot different from i317MVLALJ2.
Ok i tried the MK6 but the phone was rebooting after a few minutes so i had to re flashed the rogers j2 modem back....
This SGH i317m is from a company named Claro, is there any other detail i can provide to improve the chances of finding the right modem for my phone? i haven't tested the phone on the 4.1.1 modem yet, current version is 4.1.2.

So far i tested the phone which is a Claro note2 with the new radio modem and seems fine for the moment, i hope it works better with net10 when i move to the states. I let you know i find something bad. Thanks a lot for help.
Ok for some reason, my SGH I317 passed to be a GT N7105 as model number, is that normal when flashing radio/modem? Will it affect the phone?

That's because you flashed a Rom which changed it to that. You know the model of your device, so you use the correct modem according to you device model. And everything will be OK..[emoji106][emoji41]

Hello Bajanman,
I am also facing the exact same issue that you are solving out here, I am using at&t galaxy note 2 sgh-I317,
I flashed DN4 rom into my device, i got it all up and running. But now I am facing issues with network reception and my device also does not allows me enable "wcdma only" network mode. Is that an issue with my modem? kindly advise on this.
@sawdoctor and @dicksteele is currently guiding for this here.

[Q] flashing N7105 to T889

can I flash stock rooted ROM of N7105 4.3 to unlocked T-Mobile t889 4.1.2?
Regards
guys ...any reply please
I would like to know the answer to this too for the record. People say the hardware for both the N7105 and the T889 and I317 is similar but there's no concrete information other than someone 'saying so'.

Hardware is basically the same except modem, so any roms that have a modem must have an i317 or a t889 modem in its place, or the installer script must be updated for the removal of the modem out of the zip.

Guys, I had the same issue, you could install any roms from n7105 roms... Then install modem and update VPN... Try dn3 roms... Its good.

ROM/Radio for unlocked T-mobile s4?

Hello,
Recently my friend gave me a T-mobile S4 which I successfully unlock using this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283068 )method. I aslo was able to install Chaos (universal) ROM and seems to be working fine, but I have a few questions.
Can I install an ATT ROM/Radio or I need to stick to universal ROMs?
Can I lose unlock status if I upgrade the radio?
TIA!
Anyone?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
I've never tried ATT ROMs and haven't seen much mention of them in this forum, but I know i9505 ROMs usually work if the developer hasn't put specific device checks in the updater-script. I would guess ATT ROMs will work as well. You may need to flash a T-Mobile kernel though. Radios that are not specific to your device should not be flashed.

Why would you want an ATT Rom or radio? The Tmobile radio package supports more frequencies than the AT&T version. I am currently using my M919 on an AT&T mvno and my girlfriend has the I337 (AT&T S4) so Ive switched sims around on both and could find no significant difference.
