galaxy s4 wont work on wind - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

alright, so today i restored my tmobile galaxy s4 to 4.4.2 stock, I did that AWS stuff... and when i inserted my WIND sim card, it puts me into the "AWAY" network.. Now if i want to select another network I get Telus, Rogers, Bell.. NO WIND!
Before I did the AWS thing, I only had AWAY, AWAY, AWAY
(I restored the s4 to 4.4.2 because the wizcyan rom didint make my pc detect the com ports)
please help with me, im not the best with android but i know my way around things usally
this phone worked with other networks like Chatr, T-Mobile (obviously) Rogers, and fido

also its rooted

Which aws thing did you do? I believe the wind and T-Mobile s4 is the m919. It's possible that the phone cannnot connect to the wind towers in your area.
I'm not sure where you are located but many people on different forums complain about wind's poor signal and coverage.

the one where you flash the qcn file
also, wind updated to Freedom Mobile, and they have LTE rolling out, does that make a change, so then I can use wind without flashing the qcn, or do they still use those different frequiencies?
sorry i'm kinda a noob.

What is the phone's model # in download mode? If it is sgh-i337m, the s4 is not from T-Mobile. The T-Mobile s4 (sgh-m919) supports all of Wind/Freedom's frequencies @ 3g and would not need any patch to work.

Oh yea, forgot to say, I flashed T-Mobile firmware on it cause i thought it would make a difference.
but on any rom, I get ROGERS, TELUS, BELL.
before the qcn flash, I got AWAY, AWAY, AWAY
Away is winds roaming network.
Also they upgraded to LTE in some areas

What is the model # in download mode?
You flashed stock T-Mobile firmware with Odin?

No, its a dedoxed ROM, also here:
This is what it says
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I337M
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0X0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0X1
CSB-CONFIG-LSG: 0X30
WRITE PROTECTION: ENABLE
eMMC BURST MODE: enabled

The s4 is not a T-Mobile s4, it's a Canadian s4 (i337m) issued by rogers, bell, Telus and has no native aws support with the stock rom.
T-Mobile and wind/freedom use the m919.

Does it make a difference if wind switches to LTE networks?

The Canadian s4 does not support Freedom's LTE frequency band.

using rogers version in at&t's network

Hi I have i747m (rogers version, canadian) that I have unlocked.
Currently, I am using it with straight talk service (at&t//t-mobile)
However, I get really ****ty 4g service and I feel like maybe this is because of the modem that is currently in place (i guess it would be rogers modem)
Would it get better network service if I change the modem? should I just flash modem from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898 ?
so first, should i root it using this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 and use roger's version?
Thanks so much for your help guys!

Flashing Verizon SM-G960U to other Variants

Hello, I have a Galaxy SM-G960UZKAVZW, The Verizon model, and it is unlocked. I use this phone GSM in Peru, but It noticed that I can not switch freely between 4G and 3G like I could in a S8 Tmobile model.
So I have to Flash other firmware, if it is possible, I don't want any carrier logo so I need to know what firmware I have to choose. I looked into Sammobile for G960U and found:
Spint (cdma) (SPR)
USA (TMK) MetroPCS
USA (USC) US Cellular
USA (T-Mobile) (TMB)
USA (Verizon) (VZW)
Unknown (BST) Bosst Mobile
Unknown (CCT)
Unknown (XAS) Sprint XAS
Virgin Mobile USA (VMU)
What firmware I have to choose, or I need to choose a G960U1?
Then, I have to do wipes?
Thanks.
Use the one for the SM-G930U1 with CSC code XAA and flash with the modified odin found here on the forums

S20 Wireless Bands and Firmware

Sorry newbie here.
Do all US s20 variants (Verizon, ATT, Sprint, Tmobile) the same hardware to access all cellular bands if the correct firmware is installed?
For example.... If I had a ATT s20 and flashed the firmware to Sprint would I be able to access all of the bands required for Sprint like CDMA?
Thanks!
