Would my baseband version still be NF1 if... - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Okay, so if I Odin the NF1 firmware and then reroot and install a custom recovery and then restore a nandroid backup of CM11(from NB4 baseband) would I still have NF1 baseband version or would flashing the nandroid cause a soft brick?

You can only update the modem with Odin. Flashing your nandroid zip will not affect it any which way.
I have been running CM11 for a month now, and just flashed the NF1 modem separately through Odin last night - didn't have to backup anything and I am now on the NF1 baseband.

I just downloaded the .tar.md5 for the modem, and used Triangle Away to reset my flash counter so Odin would properly flash it.

Thank you for your help!

You said download triangle away so Odin will flash correctly. You do this before flashing the modem? I am researching this since I am still on Nb4 and would like to update modem. I've never updated a modem. I'm on aosp ROM 4.4.4 Nb4 I really want NF1 but nervous about Odin

Yeah, you run triangle away, then reboot into download mode and flash just the modem file with Odin.
Piece of cake, nothing to be scared of.

I am not sure what you mean, you say have flashed the latest MDL in odin and then you say you are on the latest OTA, it cannot be both.
You are either on the latest OTA or you are on the latest official FULL Samsung MDL Jellybean v4.2.2 stock rom which you say you flashed in Odin.
So which is it?
If you are indeed on the latest OTA as you have stated then here is what needs to be done to get MDL as your baseband.
You need to Odin flash the FULL Samsung Touchwiz Jellybean MDL v4.2.2 stock rom.
After doing that you will have MDL but you will need to get yourself rooted.
Here is the link to the FULL Odin flash rom: http://k0nane.info/rom/M919UVUAMDL_M919TMBAMDL_TMB.zip
The OTA upgrade is just that an upgrade it's not the same as flashing the full official stock jellybean MDL 4.2.2 rom.

My bad. What I did was installed the mdl full base in Odin. No ota, don't know why I mentioned it. I did a full wipe in my recovery then flashed the 1.6gb tar file in Odin. It took about 4 minutes, rebooted to the compete fresh stock Rom, and I have no Wi-Fi. In settings, the baseband says I'm on mdb. When I try to toggle Wi-Fi, it just won't switch on.

Is this filename below the exact same filename that you Odin flashed?
M919UVUAMDL_M919TMBAMDL_TMB_3.zip
If it's not the same filename, then download this rom from my previous post and Odin flash it and you will have MDL.
This is the file everyone has been using.

before you odin flash, go into recovery and do a "factory reset"
and then odin flash stock mdl and you should be good to go.
Good luck!
Are you flashing roms with Odin ? You should use TWRP or CWM to flash roms, not Odin.

At the moment no. And I have the slightest feeling that when you did that, you tripped your Knox flash counter by trying to Odin MDL firmware while on the newest. Now since you most likely tripped it, you won't be able to reset the counter because there is no way yet and that has permanently voided your warranty for now. Once you've updated via ota or kies or Odin to 4.3 you're stuck.

Its because when you flash a fireware it communicates with the new boot loader to check if its the same version or newer.
If oyu pull the tars apart and retar just the system/data/and image files it might flash.

Need clarifications.

Hi everyone!
My gf's GS3 is running CM11 but she runs across various issues in every custom ROM I flash onto her phone so I decided I should just flash stock 4.4.2. I have heard that in mobile Odin I should make sure that the modem or bootloader does not downgrade. I remember that I did flash the I747MVLUEMK5 bootloader and the I747MUMUEND3 modem. Is it safe to say that I can use mobile odin to flash stock 4.4.2 as well as the bootloader and modem without having the fear that it will downgrade one of those? I am thinking this because I flashed those files BEFORE kitkat was released, which has to mean that the 4.4.2 bootloader and modem are newer. Sorry if I'm not clear or that I repeat myself a lot I just try to spit all the information I have because the last thing I'd want is a bricked device.
Thanks Everyone!!!!
Only flash 4.4.2 with mobile odin if you have already fully updated to 4.4.2! It is not capable of flashing mist of the base firmware, including the bootloader. But it does flash the modem, and if you get a 4.4.2 modem on 4.3 firmware/bootloaders,...permanent brick!

What if I don't use mobile odin? By using regular odin can I just ignore all of this and flash 4.4.2? Can PC Odin flash the base firmware and bootloader?
Yes regular Odin will flash everything. After that it'll be safe to use mobile Odin.

Bootloader

Hello everyone, I am in need of some help.
I tried to update my l900 mk4 rooted to NE2 yesterday and it failed and left me in a situation.
My bootloader got updated to NE2 but everything else stayed as MK4.
My issues is when I try to ODIN flash a stock MK4 tar, I get an error Binary:3 Device:2.
After research I getting that everything needs to match up I'm guessing. (I could be wrong)
So what I am needing is a MK4 bootloader to flash via recovery or ODIN or a way to get everything to NE2 (I just need them matching)
Someone has uploaded a MK4 bootloader tar (I cant find the link) but is does not work with ODIN.
If I am completely wrong about all this please chime in, I'm not developer and could have misinterpreted my research.
My status right now is a very early, dirty flash of CM11 (I had a backup) that will not update with nightlys via updater giving MK5 checksum verification error. I am assuming this is related.

You cant downgrade bootloader without causing issues. Also you don't have to have bootloader, rom, and radio versions match. I am on ne2 bootloader running mk4 rom with the ancient lj1 modem. Not sure what your cm11 issue is not mismatch of versions. You can flash the full ne2 tar with odin if you want but cant go backwards with odin.
Sent from my XT1045 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ah, I see now. So basically the only TAR I can flash is either a NE2 or NK2?
I guess I have something else going on with CM11 and CM12. I cannot update CM11 at all and if I try to flash CM12 I get a boot loop. None of this happened till I tried to upgrade from MK4 to NE2.
Not sure how to fix it, I'm stuck on a Dec of 2013 CM11 rom. Every NE2 TAR I download, both my computers say they are corrupt (I'm thinking it might be a windows 8.1x64 issue)
If you go to androidfilehost.com/dev/jlmancuso and search around you will find a copy of the ne2 tar I uploaded. It should download better/faster. Hopefully it will help you out.

Much appreciated.
When I load this into ODIN 3.07 I get a MD5 hash error, and when I load it into ODIN 3.09 I get a binary invalid error.

You can also get it from here http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SPH-L900 , but it will take a long time to download, this is where I downloaded mine from and its worked fine for me many times using odin 3.09.

How i can update the Baseband - From M919Uvufnk2 To M919Uvufoh3 using TWRP?

My method...Backup your current rom. Odin the oh3 stock release, odin cf root, odin twrp, backup the new stock rom, restore prior backup.

Hmmm...thats what i am actually thinking as of now....but looking for easy alternative like if we get the flashable zip or something of this baseband i can just flash it without taking backup of ROM and reinstall the ROM etc.....
But am looking for a site where i can download these basebands....
i take it you are trying to update the modem/baseband ihere you go. Must be done thru odin.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/general/foh3-modem-bin-mdl-bootloader-t3191094
IMPORTANT: DO NOT CHANGE THE BOOTLOADER unless u KNOW EXACLY what you are doing...changing bootloader to the wrong bootloader will brick your device and some modem packages conatin bootloader. so make sure that you are getting a ODIN file that only contains the modems and no bootloader!
if you wish to properly update the bootlaoder and baseband properly ....just ODIN the OFFICIAL samsung release for your device and then re-root and reinstall recovery and then your rom.

Perfect....I will use this one....
And on S4 you don't even need to root before flashing TWRP and your ROM of choice. Just double flash the stock release with ODIN, let it boot up and make sure all is well, go into Camera to let it see if it needs a firmware update (happens automatically first time you run stock camera app), and when satisfied your phone is good, go into download mode, take TWRP + whatever else you want.
