I have a hongkong T705. It does NOT support LTE Band 28, the Taiwan 700MHz LTE Band.
I noticed that the tab S sold in taiwan is T705Y. I also found that someone flash T705 ROM to T705Y and it works perfectly.
So, is it possible that I flash only the t705y modem to my t705? And can I use LTE Band 28?
I want to go to taiwan next month.
I will have a try and post the result.
I tried flashing modem.bin using Odin, but it failed.
Should I root my t705?
UPDATE
I rooted my t705, and flashed t705y modem.bin in TWRP. Now I can see B28 in *#0011# menu, but B20 is gone.
I look forward to enjoying LTE in taiwan next month.

Hello
I saw your post which was from many months back. Were you successful in your modification to get the band you wanted?-pretty interesting and innovative! Also, how did you flash the modem.bin through TWRP (did you also root first?). I would appreciate any details on your process. Thanks!

I made a TWRP-flashable zip file, so that I can flash it with TWRP. I don't really remember why I rooted my t705, sorry for that.
Unfortunately, my t705 did't connect to LTE Band 28. I guess some modification on Android System is required. I did not try any custom ROM, so I have no idea if Taiwan modem and custom ROM will work with LTE Band 28.
By any chance to you have the T705y modem.bin available?
I have the T705y but I can't find the modem.bin available anywhere.
Thanks.

Hi, does anyone have a stock .tar Odin file for the Note 10.1 (2014)? I would sure like one. It would really help if I want to go back to complete stock. I haven't been able to find any Odin files, except for TWRP CR.
Thanks

Here,
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-P600&pcode=XAR#firmware
I apologize that this is a common topic, I've searched quite a bit and although this comes up a lot, I don't quite know the best way forward with it.
I've been running Fenny's 4.4.2 on my TMO S4, but had stability issues. Since 4.4.4 was released, I tried out http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...stock-base-4-4-4-nh7-rooted-deodexed-t2873695 this ROM but had the wifi/radio issue not working. Sound was working however. I flashed the modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55373341&postcount=22 and gained radio + wifi, but lost sound.
Is there a basic modem I can flash to reset it and fix the sound?
Thanks,
Aaron
Iirc new LTE modem (NONHLOS.bin) will only work with the new boot loader. If you don't want to upgrade boot loader then flash the LTE modem (NONHLOS.bin) for your current boot loader.

That did the trick, found a non-hlos.bin for the original 4.4.2 firmware on my phone and it's working great. Thanks!
Is there any rationale for why the LTE radio has to pair with the boot loader version but the gsm radio is easily upgradable? I'm curious why they aren't both easily portable.

I was wondering about that myself, if it had to do with the difference between how the LTE radio code is bootstrapped versus a more portable gsm code?
Right now I'm trying to figure out how to update my bootloader to 4.4 to try and see why my wifi won't enable.

If you update the boot loader there's no going back. Aboot.mbn, sbl1.mbn, sbl2.mbn and sbl3.mbn are the boot loader files to be flashed in Odin.

Understand about not going back, I went ahead and reflashed stock 4.4.4 to get it back working again. Since this is my primary/only phone, I'll have to hold off on doing anything more non-standard for a while.

I followed the instructions there and regained audio, then flashed ONLY modem.bin for the new NH7 and did NOT flash the non-hlos like a dummy, ha!
(Bonus that I got 10 posts and can now posts these in the appropriate threads!)
I wonder if the new GSM modem gives any tangible benefit over the NB4 one...
I've also wondered if a "better" GSM modem helps at all with LTE, given the LTE modem is part of the boot loader...

Is the "Mobile hotspot" and "data" on the Notification panel (when you swipe your finger from the top of the phone) ???
Or is it the same as the Tmobile version, Mobile hotspot is on a separate app in the app drawer, and mobile data can only be accessed under settings menu?

The nonhlos.bin version must match the bootloader version. For example, if you have the NB7 bootloader, you need to have the NB7 nonhlos.bin. Flash the proper nonhlos.bin.

Thanks for the reply. How can I find out what bootloader I have? I pretty much had rooted my MetroPCS S4 shortly after I bought it back in July of 2013. It was still using Jelly bean 4.2.2. with older firmware M919NUVUAMF2. I hope that info helps. Would I need to find a different nonhlos.bin file or update/upgrade my bootloader? I'm really SOL right now cuz I can't make phone calls. At least I can still recieve texts. Thanks again for any help?

July of 2013 means your warranty is up so tripping knox would be no issue. I'd completely update with the firmware then you can not worry about stupid mix match problems

AP. Uncheck auto reboot, flash it, when done pull battery, back to download mode and flash it again and reboot. Just to be 100. Sometimes bootloader and/or modems have a issue writing to the device.

Edit: Looks like you're flashing the firmware...good choice.
If you've never flashed a different firmware then you would need the nonhlos.bin from the MF2 firmware. You can find that firmware at this link, under firmware...
http://androidforums.com/metropcs-g...cial-metropcs-s4-root-information-thread.html
Alternately you could just flash the new NI3 firmware like shiny suggested. It would be easier altogether. Your manufacturer warranty has expired so updating the bootloader is no longer an issue.

On GSam Battery Monitor's phone signal graph, I noticed fluctuating signal graph. I work in city core and signal is always in good 65-72 dbm range.
There is certainly no reason for the phone to have signal problems. Worse is that signal problem causes battery drain.
Fix is rather simple. Update firmware or modem (NON-HLOS.bin.) Though I flashed entire firmware, updating modem alone should do it.
To update, follow [GUIDE] How to manually upgrade firmware posted by @Presterin .
However, note that I used 26S firmware as 23S firmware is the one that gave me the problem.
In the picture, those crazy fluctuation is when I was on 23S radio and right after I I flashed 26s one, it is nice and stable as you can see.
EDIT: Do not flash system.img and boot.img if you want to keep your current rom as it is. Obviously, do not format Data neither.

You will need to find latest stock rom which contains firmware and flash it. As for which modem works best, I do not know. I suggest you compare them using GSam Battery Monitor.

Hey looks like all weapons are available for OnePlus 9 pro(root, magisk, Twrp), I have a T-Mobile version but converted to EU, Only step I cannot do on my phone is to flash modem after OTA, just wondering can we do that via Twrp/without laptop?

For conversation from t mobile to EU, you need to flash modem after OTA otherwise you will not get service
Flashing the modem is necessary to regain data since EU uses an incompatible modem that does not work with TMO.
Regarding flashing the modem, it could be done but as TWRP is kind of buggy, I don't think this is a good idea. It only really accepts .img and .zip files anyway. So to answer your question, no.
EDIT: I take that back, you could use the terminal and just dd the modem.bin to the modem partition.

Ah nice, can you elaborate how to do it via terminal?
It probably goes something like this:

Not sure about T-Mobile but when flashing EU firmware for the Global/US model there is no need to do anything but flash the firmware itself. I'm running BA and have not flashed the modem. The same applies for my 7 Pro when I ran EU firmware.
Have you actually tried to get service?

T-Mobile has a different baseband, and thus is needed. Your 2125 does not have the same issue so you don't need to. Why would you think people haven't tried to get service w/o a modem flash??
I've done 2 OTA updates on my Tmobile 9 pro that is running the EU firmware and have not had to flash the modem.

Did you use the msm tool that doesn't require an unlocked bootloader? If you used this conversion method then you absolutely need to flash modem. It says so right in the op of the TMobile msm to EU thread. Also I've updated twice after using that method and absolutely had to flash TMobile modem to a and b partitions in order to have data.
Was wondering if we could get a flash able zip for this as well. Would make life so much easier then I won't need a computer to flash my roms anymore lbs
