[REQUEST] Looking for stock ROM I8150B

Hi,
I am looking for a stock ROM for Galaxy W, stock ROM I8150B. I bought my phone in Europe but I cannot get it to work in Latin America. Stock ROM I8150B is the one approved to work in my country. Does anyone have the I8150B? I think it was first released in Brazil.

Hi freditoc......
In the other thread
you see this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22213775&postcount=10
So, you can see, despite what I did believe, there may be a difference in the HW supplied with the Brazil/S America/Central America/US versions of our phone as opposed to Euro/Asia
The actual Radio Module to enable 3G/UMTS/CDMA on Bands 850/1900 may not be there, so S/W will not solve this.
As requested by friend arth_ur, in that thread, I have uploaded the back-up of radio/modem.bin from my Euro phone, and perhaps there will be a solution.
See below:

Try http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I8150&r=2#regiona
these appear to be LB's but do mention Asia in their description

So there's a significant difference between I8150 and I8150B? I bought mine on Brazil and couldn't update it to 2.3.6 version via Kies Air (it doesn't show any option that might be it).
That's my first android phone and like the presentation video said, i'm a freaking noob (but very interested in learn). In the settings i couldn't find any information about the firmware. I found the Android Version (2.3.5), Baseband Version (I850BVJKJ5) and the Kernel Version ([email protected] #3(i believe this is about the linux kernel or something).

Which is the latest Bada2.0 firmware for Wave 723 (non-branded German)?

Hi there,
a while ago I installed a Bada2.0 firmware manually on our non-branded Wave723 which worked fine. Now I wanted to obtain the lifelong license for Route66 on that mobile but had to accept that the navigation app contained in the firmware I installed is not the correct version - hence it doesn't work.
From Samsung support I got the information that latest firmware version is S723EXXLG1. I already searched for it but only got a custom ROM version and another one where I do not know whether the German country code is also contained. Updating via Kies does not work (it claims latest firmware is already installed - seems to be contradictory to what Samsung support says).
Maybe someone here can tell me where I can get the latest Bada2.0 firmware for Wave723 (non-branded) from containing German country code?
Many thanks in advance!
Bye

[Q] Vodafone UK Firmware on M9?

Just received my new M9 from Vodafone UK - I have firmware 1.32.161.15.
Keen to try the most recent firmware updates as reported in various places believe it is x.xx.xxx.33 which has updated camera settings.
Anyone know how to do this on the vodafone UK network? Or have nay idea when it might be released?
Cheers!
Sam

I believe it was only USA versions that needed the camera update. International already had the update on release I think

Ah OK, that's good to know, thanks!

Getting 6.0.1 by changing region in Singapore?

Hi,
I just got a tab-s in Singapore which is stuck at 5.0.2. After a bit of firmware hunting it seems like 6.0.1 was never released here. What is the best way to update to marshmallow? Download a firmware or change my region to some other country? Can you please also provide a howto for the second one. All firmware sites I have tried to get 6.0.1 are horribly slow.
Thanks!

Singapore/the rest of sea got the update on october. If you root your device it wont update by OTA. you need to update manually. Use this website fw.updato.com and download your fimrware. this site will download fast.

Z5P Dual (E6883) 1299-6237 Update to 7.0

Hello,
Been waiting for update to Android 7.0 since the news been spread on XperiaBlog and XDA, but still no official release for 1299-6237 (HK Version). Hence, a question arise: Are there additional certifications that apply to HK ROM version that it takes so long for an update, or is there is another reason for it? Also, any idea when to expect the update then? Thanks for help in advance!

you can take the Indonesia or India version... since HK , the last update was .305 / oct2016 ... i am not sure why the stopped pushing for HK

Thanks for reply! I know I can manually flash it, but to be honest, with device like this I cannot be bothered (and frankly not many people do, as pretty much no development going on). I am more reliant on OTA or Companion updates as I do not want to lose my data. Hence it owuld be nice to know if someone would have an explanation for such nonsence really.

I was in the same boat as you. I bought my Z5p dual off of Amazon and received an HK version. I've been waiting for a Nougat update and could wait no longer. I updated using the russian update file and can confim that everything works and no bugs to report. Also no data was lost and my phone language remained in English post update. Should you change your mind...
But to contribute to your question, according to the Experia blog there appears to be a relatively big update coming in April to fix a couple of the Nougat issues with sound some users were reporting. That could be why they halted rollouts again.
