So ive gone ahead rooted my P935 many times now quite simple to do. The question is its a Telus phone i'm with rogers, when i flash the v10f kdz i get origninal GB korean rom fully unlocked phone shows using rogers network. When then doing nitro hd unbrick guide and if i only DD the system.img file to install the att version p930 then do the battery pull factory reset my phone still is network unlocked. What i'm tryin to find out is which .img files baseband firmware etc would control this network lock, since when i tried to flash H!ONO v20c P930 cmw flashable ics leak my phone became network locked again. Ijust cant seem to straighten it all out , information overload .
That's very strange, flashing ROMs should not affect network lock. I'm using Bell P930 on Fido, I've flashed AT&T leak and Bell official ICS and neither have re-locked the phone. As long as the IMEI remains unchanged you should be able to use the original unlock code you received to unlock the phone again.

Interesting indeed would it be the v10f .kdz korean somehow. And heres the thing I have recieved no unlock code to unlock. And now am back to running the CM9.1 unlocked working on Rogers Network .
Aha! I figured it out. CM has your Rogers APN preconfigured. The official roms would not lol. I don't know why the SU640 rom was letting you connect. It really shouldn't because your firmware and baseband should be incorrect if you flash it. Anyway, APN has nothing to do with your phone being locked or not
w0095157, are you certain your phone was never carrier unlocked by someone? Did you purchase it brand new in box from a store?

brand new in box i swear, telus store,. must be a fluke. but it works id like to find more information on different radios modems, which may change service for me, but i was comparing this to what iphone 4 service was saying side b y side.
Yeah, that makes more sense. Unlock codes are $2 off of eBay, it's worth it just to make sure you don't have any hassles switching between ROMs.
Does LTE work on Rogers when using the Bell unlocked version (P930)?
I know you have to get an LTE Sim card and an LTE enabled plan, but before i buy on eBay and update my plan, i was wondering if the LTE band works on Rogers even if it is a Bell phone.
Yes, i have LTE in my area.
Cheers!

I don't live in Canada, but from what I'm able to find online, Rogers and Bell are using compatible LTE frequencies so it should work just fine.
It works!!!

So after trying million and 1 things I made it work! Baseband and firmware go together and I thought they contain the SIM/network lock so i tried changing them, but apparently all the versions i tried were locked too.... so since the Korean version is with unlocked SIM, why not change directly from it to Cyanogen build ??? Because the wifi is not working!!! and since i did not manage to fine how to install in while offline (CM or Clockworkmod) i flashed from the Korean version just the system.img and voila! I have unlocked SIM with working WIFI ... so putting CM after this was a breeze!
so:
1. flash to Korean V10F_00.kdz
2. root the phone
3.adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27
should have unlocked SIM + everything else working on the ATT version which you can now install Clockworkmod and go for Cyanogen mod of your choice. i did cm-10-20121105-NIGHTLY-p930.zip - works great!
I have a p930 with at&t permanent locked network, I discovered too that the baseband of the korean version is unlocked, I made a thread about this but nobody commented or cared i think lol, you can install any rom you want but remove the baseband of the rom before install.

Ok I have a similar problem with an at&t Lp 930, did the unbrick guide to sim unlock with the korean baseband. While in the koream ROM sim was succesfully unlocked. But after following the guide, flashing to AT&T Gingerbread and installing ClockWork Mod, I flashed it to HO!NO! AT&T ICS CWM Flashable ROM once in ICS, I lost Sim Unlock and was back to: Network Locked on Phone.
So what your saying is to basically only flash the system.img after the korean ROM is on the phone and ignore the other images, then after flash to desired ROM with CWM?
And if so, if I flashed to HO!NO! At&t flash, would I still have Locked Network?
Thank You

I have a Verizon G3 that is unlocked with my AT&T sim card. When downloading device specific files do I want to use all Verizon files since it's a VS985 (Verizon Model #) or do I have to download stuff for AT&T model version. I assume I would use Verizon but I just want some assurance. If anyone could answer this for me I would appreciate it.

If you're still running the stock ROM that came loaded with Verizon software, you would have to download Verizon files. If you're running a different ROM then it's really at your discretion. You can try the AT&T files, but changing the SIM won't make a difference with the software of the phone

So basically once I have it rooted with recovery installed I can flash AT&T (D850) G3 custom ROM's? Thanks for the quick response.
No.
You cannot currently load a custom recovery except on the T-Mobile version of the G3. Even if you could, you couldn't install a GSM phone's firmware onto it and expect it to boot.

Hello gurus, i have a problem with my LG G3 i upgraded it to 5.0.1 but it is stuck at the LG Logo but without a sim card in it it works fine.
i don't think there is an issue with the sim card itself as it works in my other phone and was working fine in my LG G3 before the upgrade. the phone itself in not rooted, it is still locked by Fido so i don't see why there would be any conflict with the sim card.
i tried to restore upgrade errors with PC suite but that didn't help either. help?
Carrier: FIDO Canada
model: LG-D852

download the kdz and flash it(gogle how to or see in my most thanked
I'm not new to roms and rooting but recently I bought an LG G3 on ebay. The phone model says it was an unlocked d851. I know it's the T-Mobile variant and it even says it's D851 on the system settings. It is currently on kitkat 4.4.2. The point is, I want to flash the Lollipop kdz for the T-Mobile variant but whenever I power the phone on, I get the Viaero Wireless bootloader and the phone does not have any T-Mobile apps whatsoever. Any suggestions on what I can do in this situation? Any help would be highly appreciated
I have the same problem
Did you find a solution to this issue? I'm currently expeciencing the same problem. The phone wont uograde from 4.4.2 kitkat
