[Guide] Install New Modem (Baseband) on Note 8.0 GT-N5100, GT-N5110, GT-N5120.

Installing a new modem for you Note 8.0
The below guide assumes you have:
1. Rooted your device. If you don't know what this is, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389973
2. Have a custom Recovery installed (not stock recovery). An example of a recovery program for the Note 8.0 is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2287802
3. BACKED UP YOUR ORIGINAL ROM (including the EFS folder) VIA NANDROID BACKUP. Do not skip this step. If you do not know what a "Nandroid" is, you should not go any further. Read here if you are clueless: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389973
The process of flashing a modem (baseband) over another modem is as follows:
1. Extract a modem.bin file from a stock ROM of choice. You can find your countries "Modem" file in the stock Samsung ROMs by simply downloading a stock ROM from SamMobile (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) for your country/carrier, and then use a zip program (like 7Zip) to explore the ROM contents, and find the "modem.bin" file from that. Make a copy, and place onto your Note 8 (internal or external SD card).
Alternatively, you can access Civato's modem collection by reading the post below this one by Civato (Thanks Civ).
2. Make sure you purchase the "Mobile Odin" app from Play store.
3. In Mobile Odin, find the "Modem" menu, select it, then navigate to the file called "modem.bin" that you got from the Stock Samsung ROM for your region.
4. After selecting, it will return you to the main Mobile Odin menu. Select "Flash Firmware" menu item.
5. Check the box that has "Wipe Davlik cache" so it is on.
6. Mobile Odin will now flash the modem.bin file.
7. If you check your Settings-->About device you will find that your baseband has not updated (well it didn't for me).
8. Press and hold the power button on the Note 8, and the recovery menu should come up (if you are using Philz or TWRP recovery). Select "Reboot". Then a 4-way reboot option menu comes up. Select "Reboot into recovery".
9. Device will then shutdown and go into recovery. As it does so, it actually flashes the modem file at this point.
10. Restart will occur automatically, and android files will be updated.
11. After it boots, a check of the settings will reveal the baseband has been updated.
12. Done.
Thanks to cherryanne who pointed out the direction.

Hey Civ. Please find here the link below to the 4.2.2 Modem for the GT-N5120 Australian Modem shipped in the JB 4.2.2 Official Sammy Rom with Baseband: N5120XXCMG7. It's in .bin format and I assume you know how to get it into appropriate Odin .TAR format (I have no idea).

Hey Civ
I wanted to stay on your ROM, but I lost WiFi scanning ability to detect one network here. On stock, I can find both the access point & the router. On FlexBeam, I lose the router in the scan. So I am stuck on connecting to only one access point. I thus went back to stock ROM
When you have the aroma settings, we have to select a region. Unfortunately U.K. is the only one I can select, and I wonder if this cuts out the Australian modem (if modem has any impact on WiFi). All I know is that on Stock, I can connect to the router and on Flex I cannot.
I really appreciate your work on this, and am NOT complaining. Just saying why I reverted back to stock on what is otherwise a solid ROM experience.

I can take a look into the wifi configs but it surely doesn't got anything to do with modem.
Edit:
No difference between wifi config with stock and flex-beam
Here is the CSC for the autralia rom (will included in new update of flexbeam)
flash it with recovery. Hope this will help. Remember this is a beta test csc.

Hi Civ. Not much luck unfortunately with the flash of the Australian CSC file (it did flash, I could select it, but WiFi still not performing as well as stock). WiFi can only find one of the routers and not the other as it can under Stock Rom. Very frustrating as it doesn't make any sense (especially as I loaded your rom after the stock Rom, so it should have the right Modem).
Don't know what else I can do. I have tried your latest ROM 3.6.2 with the above, and no luck. Anything I may have missed?

[GUIDE][HOW TO][N900W8]Canadian Note 3 - KitKat 4.4.2 ROM with WIFI/BT/NFC Fix

*MEXICAN USERS, PLEASE SKIP TO PART 4*
The following is for Canadian Note 3 users - model number N900W8. Please do not attempt the following on ANY other device (including the N900T). I am not responsible for your phone or any damages, so perform at your own risk.
[PART ONE - UPGRADE FROM 4.3 TO 4.4.2 STOCK]
1. Download the following Stock TelCel (Mexican) 4.4.2 files.
http://pc.cd/7kH (AP - System)
http://pc.cd/gXH (BL - Bootloader)
http://pc.cd/K7H (PIT - Repartition)​
2. Download the following Canadian modem and CSC.
http://fs1.androidfilesharing.com/d0ed8bf1a29d2c01 (CP - Modem)
http://fs1.androidfilesharing.com/6cb078fbe8a64316 (CSC - Carrier Specific Code)​
3. Download Odin 3.09.
http://fs1.androidfilesharing.com/7625af2fbef08abc​
4. Backup important files to your computer and boot into download mode (hold HOME+VOLUME DOWN during boot).
5. Plug the phone into your computer, preferably with the cable that came with the phone.
6. Open Odin 3.09 and load the 5 files you just downloaded into their corresponding spots.
7. UNCHECK Re-Partition. Make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are CHECKED.
http://i.imgur.com/f5vVc5h.jpg​
8. Click start and wait for it to finish.
*Notes*
-This will factory reset your device.
-There has been some controversy over whether to leave Re-Partition checked or unchecked. Try unchecked first, then checked if it doesn't boot up.
-If you are having problems, try booting into recovery (hold HOME+VOLUME UP during boot) and factory resetting your device and restarting.
-If you boot and find bloatware from a different carrier or something isn't working, open the dialer and type *#272*YOURIMEI# and change your CSC to the appropriate carrier. This will factory reset your phone.
-We have the ability to revert back to 4.3 (flashing stock 4.3 rom in Odin), but the method isn't concrete. You should be ready to stay on 4.4.2 if you are going to flash it.
-If you are having issues writing to the SD Card, take a look at this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2617921
__________________________________________________
[PART TWO - ROOT AND CUSTOM RECOVERY]
1. Download Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root file.
http://download.chainfire.eu/352/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip​
2. Load into Odin 3.09's AP section and flash in download mode.
3. Download BigBiff's N900W8 TWRP recovery OR Chenglu's CWM recovery.
TWRP - http://techerrata.com/bigbiff/hltecan-recovery.img.tar​CWM - http://d-h.st/users/xiaolu/?fld_id=31963​
4. Load into Odin 3.09's AP section and flash in download mode.
*Notes*
-Assume this will trip Knox warranty to 0x1. Some users have reported otherwise, but just be ready for it.
__________________________________________________
[PART THREE - CUSTOM 4.4.2 ROM AND KERNEL + WIFI/NFC FIX]
1. Download your favourite custom 4.4.2 rom from the N9005 forums.
2. Download custom (N900T) 4.4.2 kernel.
Custom (CivZ) - http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12054​Custom (Wootever) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581888​
3. Download the WIFI/NFC fix (NB7 Source)
fs1.androidfilesharing.com/2a941b72c218c505​
4. Place files on SD card. Some roms are known to wipe your internal storage.
5. Boot into TWRP Recovery and wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
6. Install custom rom, kernel, and WIFI/NFC fix, then reboot.
*Notes*
-A custom rom alone will break WIFI and NFC, follow these instructions to install a custom rom and fix connectivity.
-The stock kernel caused connectivity issues on custom roms, use CivZ's custom kernel

I've managed to successfully install 4.4.2 onto my Rogers Note 3. I extracted the modem and CSC from the latest Rogers 4.3 and flashed with Odin 3.09 along with TelCel (Mexican) files below.

Stock kernel, Mexican and Canadian variants are both N900W8.

Just successfully flashed back to stock Rogers 4.3.
Flashed stock via odin, first boot was hanging so I factory reset in recovery. Works fine now.

Thanks for this bro!!

this is probably more wishful thinking than any real hope of it having happened yet - but I have to join the hordes to ask the one question - has anyone flashed on TMOBILE Sucessfully yet? (Intellectually I am sure I know the answer - but I feel compelled to ask the question just the same)..

Apparently you can flash a modem.bin with Odin...give it a quick google.
I didn't know this and used Cygwin64 Terminal to convert it to a .tar

[ROM][ODIN] SPH-L710 MK5 (MK5 Modem/Kernel/Bootloader/ROM - Full Restore - Unrooted)

First, a HUGE thanks goes @garwynn for helping run the site and building all these one-clicks! Second, thanks to @jdsingle76 for posting the original TAR this was based off of, available here.
This Odin One-Click.exe contains the Stock MK5 Bootloader, Kernel, Modem and ROM for the Boost/Virgin Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH-L710RWBBST). Yes, that means this comes with the full Knox Bootloader.
There has been no change to the ROM from the initial build released by Samsung.
This will NOT trigger the Yellow Triangle NOR will it increment the Odin flash count.
This one-click resets your whole phone to the stock MK5 experience, similar to a factory restore and it will wipe all data. It also contains the full bootloader and Knox.
Instructions:
1: Backup anything important and Disable any PINs.
During this process your phone's software will be returned to the Stock setup. All system data will be lost. To be safe, it is best to archive your backup off your phone, ie on your PC or Dropbox.
2: Install Samsung USB/Android drivers (if necessary).
Samsung Drivers Download Link
3: Download the MK5 Stock ROM One-Click.
SPH-L710RWBBST_MK5_Full Restore_UNROOTED (Compressed Archive).exe (Resets user data)
4: Unzip One-Click ROM using 7zip (this package is a self-extracting exe you should just be able to double-click on it after download and it will do the rest).
5: Start the Odin One-Click.
Navigate to the location where the SPH-L710RWBBST_MK5_Full Restore_UNROOTED.exe was saved upon extract from the 7Zip archive.
Double-click on SPH-L710RWBBST_MK5_Full Restore_UNROOTED.exe. *On Vista or newer, you may need to right-click on the file and Run as Administrator.
6: Place phone in Download Mode.
- Power phone completely off.
- Press and hold Volume Down, Home and Power buttons, all at the same time.
- Release the buttons only when the ‘Warning!!’ message appears.
- Press [Volume Up] to enter Download mode.
7: Connect USB cable to PC and phone.
Odin should show a yellow COM port in the second column. If you do not see a yellow COM port, you may need to run the Odin One-Click as Administrator and/or unplug/plugin the USB cable after starting Odin One-Click.
8: Start Odin flash process.
Press [Start].
9: Complete - PASS!
Status should change to green PASS! At this point your phone should automatically reboot.
Android Instructions:
Download and install ZArchiver on your phone. Use it to unpack the Odin One-Click 7zip self-extracting exe file (long press on the 7zip exe. Select "Open As Archive". Select the One-Click.exe and then select Extract). Use Mobile Odin to Open File the SPH-L710RWBBST_MK5_Full Restore_UNROOTED.exe. FYI - Modem will not flash with Mobile Odin.
The boot process will take slightly longer than usual during which time you'll see the Boost/Virgin 4G logo screen.
Congratulations! You've flashed the Factory Restore MK5 build!

What?

Good stuff man...glad to see you back to work I know this goes without saying, but if anyone on Sprint/Boost/VM has already flashed the ND8 4.4.2 update, they CAN NOT flash this one-click, since that would be downgrading bootloaders, which equals BRICK!!! Great work man...thanks for this, and all that you do.

Tried to flash it but not working. Do you have the file without the exe?

I flashed Stock Rom NJ2 since I lost my MEID and restore it back but since then I have not able to flash other Stock Rom.
The reason I'm trying other stock roms because my phone is always roaming. I would like to try with other modems.
I tried to flash modem but my baseband became unknown.
I think my phone also have other problems, see links

No you will not be able to recover. A hard brick is not recoverable. A soft brick (or sponge) is usually recoverable. But flashing any firmware from before nd8 (once you've updated to nd8 or later) will result in a hard brick and your phone will be a paperweight. Modems too, do not flash any modems from before nd8 (like mk5) or it will be over.

Is it just in one location? Sometimes they are working on towers in the area which can cause problems. Have you done a clean Odin flash with a factory reset? If yes then I'm not sure what else you can do. The .tar has everything in it. Flashing around older modems isn't going to help. What started the problem?

The problem started when one morning I woke up and I lost singnal, MEID. My MEID was 00000000000. My baseband was also unknow. Then I fixed my MEID it by going to the Full restore (Older version) with DFS QPST QXDM.. I got my MEID Back and my service back. but another problem with full restore was, the phone asked to insert sim card. Since I could not find any solution then I Odin NJ2 tar. Since then I have signal but I get 1xRTT all the time. 3G super slow and hardly get 4GLTE. Even when I get 4GLTE, it is not working.
@madbat99 I saw this flashable modem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787677 Will this work if I flash NJ2 already?
I really think the problem is the modem.
Thank you so much for responding. I posted on Q&A and no one has responding.

I know this thread is old, but I could not get the 'one-click' odin file to run for me. So, I extracted all of the individual files, wrapped them in a tar-ball, and created a tar.md5 that can be flashed using odin. This is confirmed working as I am currently running it now.
I want to upload it to the community, but I do not think xda would accept a 897mb zip file attachment. if anyone wants it I do have it and am looking for hosting sites.
***edit***
I am hosting the file on my private server. this is the link.

Just so I'm clear... if the Boost Mobile S3 I have is on ND8, NJ2 or NK2 (which I never heard about) ... I should not use any of these MK5 Restore ROMs?
I made a mistake in buying this phone thinking any S3 could be used with the Ting service. Found out that neither the Boost nor the Virgin Mobile phones can be used due to some contractual thing between Sprint and Ting. Basically since Sprint owns parts of Boost and Virgin Mobile... it's against their interest to allow those phones to be used with another Pre-Paided Provider.
At any rate, I am trying to revert this phone back to Stock regardless of the radio version. I don't care what the resulting radio is. I just need to revert it to Stock so I can toss it up on eBay and get rid of it. Is there a Stock Restore ROM for ND8, NJ2, and NK2? If yes... anyone have a link? If not... is there a way to revert the Nxx version back to the MK5 version in order to apply the MK5 ROM in this thread?
All help appreciated.

as far as i know rooting wont make any sense without a custom recovery and a custom rom and/ or recovery. According to The Sickness in post #7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-4-released-t-mobile-s4-t2872900#post55538578 ... "Rooting doesn't trip Knox. Flashing a custom recovery or kernel will put the knox counter at 0x1." i hope this helps, if not let me know.

CF Auto Root WILL trip the Knox flag. The way CF Auto Root works is to temporarily install a custom recovery, copy the the SU files to the /system folder and then when finished put back the original recovery. This WILL TRIP Knox. Since, Knox is tripped anytime a non-stock recovery is flashed/installed.
TowelRoot installs the SU files using another method. However, part of 4.4.4 was to eliminate the security hole that TowelRoot was using. So, as far as I know you can't use TowelRoot on 4.4.4.
If you want to root 4.4.4 at this point, until another exploit is found, you will be tripping the Knox flag. Since, the only way to root currently is to use CF Auto Root.

Also install Kies. This will install the necessary drivers for the phone to be used with USB.

Odin is recognizing phone, but keeps freezing, running as administrator.

Uninstall kies and download Samsung drivers straight from Samsung website, after that it should recognize it

I actually did the Samsung drivers, it recognizes my phone in Odin, says added, but then freezes when start, then have to exit out of it.

Youll need a pc. And since you already tripped the security blanket, flash the firmware from the firmware link and youll have zero problems.
I added an Odin 3.09 link to the thread for you.
Instructions
Download firmware
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin zip-file
Run the exe in Odin v3.09 folder
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes
And youll be good to go. If you want to flash the stock rooted knoxless deodex'd rom, just install twrp/cwr/philz, flash it, reboot directly to recovery and flash the rom and youre set

The permissive kernel is to be flashed with twrp/cwr. Or I could actually put it in a tar to flash with odin later

Anybody else having data issues with the FNI3 modem? I did a factory reset, flashed the full firmware using Odin 3.09, rooted with cf auto root, and reinstalled twrp. After that, I set up all my apps again. But now with the FNI3 modem, I can't keep a stable LTE connection; it keeps dropping to really slow 4G. I had to flash back the T-Mobile NH7 modem I was using before to get a solid connection again.

Any idea why xposed won't install?
It worked on a clean stock install via Odin but no longer works after flashing rom

Here is what I did since I needed to update my bootloader anyway
Download stock firmware and the modem/non-hilos combo and also the twrp odin flashable file and Odin
Put them on your pc in an easy to find place
Put phone in download mode (power off. Hold volume up and home button and press power, volume up at confirmation screen)
Open Odin make sure repartition is not checked
Plug phone into pc
When it's detected click "ap" and select stock firmware
Click run
Wait
After reboot go back in download and repeat process but use the modem package
After reboot repeat again but use twrp recovery
Download rom
Boot recovery (power off volume down, home power)
Flash rom
