so ehm... what do you really want to know?
What is CDC, PDA and PHONE?
When someone asks "What firmware are you using?", which of these is the correct answer? I see that i have JM5 for PDA and JM1 for PHONE and CDC.
I guees he wants to know which file has the correspondance in odin:
csc --> csc
modem --> phone
code --> pda
My turn to guess
Maybe he wants to know what firmware we use.
In my case, I use :
CODE_I9000XWJM7.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJM3.tar.md5
CSC_I9000OXAJM1.tar.md5
from samfirmware.com

Which would work out as you are running JM7.

Hehe I guess the question was not very clear.
I just to know what each software component is, functionality wise. What does PDA control? Is PHONE the firmware used by the radio? What about CDC?

It's not really that your question wasn't clear, but you're dropping a few words, so... yeah, your question wasn't clear
Anyway, from the pinned topic called "[REF] BIG FAQ! {Flash/Root HOWTO} {ADB&Tutorials} {T&T} {FW-Guide} [MUST READ!]" :
3.Why are there multiple files in the firmware archive/folder?/Why do I get three different versions when using *#1234#?
Galaxy S firmware updates come in three parts:
-The CODE itself (called PDA). This is android and all the applications that come with it. (The archives/folders will be named after the version of this file)
-The MODEM (called Phone). This is the firmware of the wireless chipset of the device and will operate you WiFi, Blutooth and 3G/2G/GSM connections. (ie Radio ROM)
-The CSC (short for Customer Specific Customization). This includes connection data for the broadband networks as well as apps that are only available in certain languages/intended for a specific area.
If we ask for your firmware, we want to know all three!
Since not all of these require updates simultaneously, often then CSC and MODEM files will have lower version numbers.

Learn how to use the search function Edit : Oh, and how to double check your post before posting, for that matter
Not sure exactly what to search for...of i'm just stupid or burnt out
got linux running on a Gnex
changed driver so evdev works and i can use it like a mini computer for the most part (fluxbox + easystroke...stroke my...too-da-loo)
i know android has different groups that you have to mess with (adbd doenst work without adding groups and changing permissions/sysctl)
so what do i have to do - what can i look for - to make calls and connect to data network?
/dev has cdma and lte devices...on android they are radio:radio owner and group. but dmesg comes up with nothing other than an offline msg on nix.
(yes i'm using a 4g sim card/plan while trying to do this - not that i've messed with sim cards before...assume it should work with it in there?)

not in /proc/sys on nix. not sure how to add, or what that's called to search for either...
rild seems to be what i'm looking for...
now i just need to know if that's the lib (if so i need to know more about kernel/proc settings) or if there's more
Sorry, don't have anything to contribute but I'm really interested in finding this out myself. I'm gonna try getting Ubuntu and or BT running today through VNC. If I could get the radio working, I would put some heavy commitment into this.

hi all-
Can anyone tell me if there is a hardware difference in the radios of NA/EUR models of the LG G3 such as the D855/852/850? Is it possible to change radio band support by flashing a different radio or other mods? I recall that this was possible with the Nexus4, to enable LTE support when the stock phone had it disabled. Could you flash a different radio baseband package to enable AWS on a D850/852, or additional LTE bands on a D855? I have a Bell D852 that I'd like to be able to use effectively on Wind, or T-Mobile in the US but obviously it doesn't support all of their frequency bands.
[update 11-18-2014] I've changed the title to reflect that editing G3 radio bands appears to be possible, user JustLiveIt has done so with a D855, but we do not have full details yet. Much more testing with different models besides the D855 is required!
Hi,
I am interested to know the answer to this for the reason you just gave, as well as myself having issues with low signal area performance.
If you find out the answer, please share it.
Cheers,
Maybe a better or more precise question would be; do the G3 models have a baseband radio package that is flashable separate from the existing ROMs? Can someone familiar with the previous LGOG->N4 conversions and the process to turn on the N4 LTE radio define what is necessary in this phone?
Simply put: this sort of thing clearly has been possible before with older LG models like making the Optimus G (E970/973) compatible with Nexus4 ROMs due to having common components. And logistically/economically it's in a manufacturers interest to keep the highest commonality of components for economies of scale in manufacturing. So logically- the various G3 models should use as few different hardware parts as possible, and differences should be defined in software as much as possible.
Has anyone tried this Qualcomm SoC dev mode hack on the D850 or D852? JustLiveIt has done testing on a D855 only so far. This thread seems to indicate that any and all GSM bands could be enabled on any current Qualcomm SoC.
Any D850, D852. D851, F460, etc users who feel lucky.. please give this radio edit a try and let us know!
Does anyone have the specific instruction set for LG phones or the G3 in particular? I have tried sending PMs to the LG users in the Qualcomm unlock thread but still no reply.
D852 sitting idle, awaiting some LG-specific instructions. I'm willing to do some testing and provide feedback, I just need a guide on testing with the G3, everyone else in the Qualcomm thread is either Sony or HTC users it seems. And neither of the users working with LG phones in that thread have responded in a week..
I got a reply back from JustLiveIt on Wednesday, unfortunately he has been offline while moving from the US overseas, so he will try to provide his radio details to-date on the D855 as soon as he is able. :good:
It's easy on LG phone...I have tested on G2 CloudyG3 (I just bought new G2 so far )
1.Install LG United driver
2.Require root
3.Turn on USB Debugging and switch to MTP mode
4. Connect the phone to PC and open terminal
5. Type this
adb shell
su
echo 1> / sys / devices / platform / lg_diag_cmd / diag_enable
setprop sys.usb.config acm, diag, mtp, adb

6. After that check your Device manager, this will show up "Ports (LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (ComXX))" ComXX is any number
7. Now you can do anything, play with it....

Can you check that in your rom there is /sys/devices/platform/lg_diag_cmd folder? Use any file manager apps to do this...
Also if you running custom ROM, maybe the ROM author remove it. Try to flash stock ROM and try again.....

That's weird...No comment...
So what can we do to re-add or load the necessary files on a Lollipop ROM? OR do we need to flash back to a stock Kitkat build? Does anyone who actually knows anything ever read these threads??
---
I've only been looking and asking for help and information for FOUR MONTHS in the G3 forums and the Qualcomm chipset thread and noone has provided any tangible information for the G3 phones, ever. I said right from the start I was willing to use my D852 to test and provide feedback, noone could even be bothered to reply. I asked people who claimed they'd had success with other G3 models, they provided nothing. This is why people hate on XDA- because it's full of useless posers who can't do anything except rehash files written or edited by others and take their credit. LOL ROMz!1one!!wan But ask for something original and useful to edit the hardware? Complete silence. Guess I may as well just sell my 852 and go buy an 851 on eBay, at least it will have what I wanted out of the box, for only $500.
Enabling LTE bands on LG VS985

Hi Enigmafied-
can you follow up here, or preferably here with the details on how you have edited the G3 radio bands? I have been looking for a set of instructions for testing this with a D852 for months with no reply from anyone..
I wanted to test access to the AWS bands for HSPA and LTE with Wind and T-Mobile on a Bell-sourced D852.

I unlocked some others LTE bands on VS985, I tried other tips from Sony Xperia forum with no success and now just with hiddenmenu it work, for that:
1. Download Shortcut Master (lite) from play store
2. Top right -> App Explorer ->Verizon Hidden Menu
3. go to -> LTEBandSelection tap and select Launch
4. Now choose all Bands and Save and reboot
Need ROOT
That's all

Sorry, this is actually just the LG service menu accessible on any stock ROM LG phone with the standard 3845# code.. It is not really unlocking or enabling anything that wasn't already available from your provider. In fact this is pretty clearly an LG service code testing hook as this works on the stock ROM, but does not work at all on a Lollipop ROM such as Candy5. 3845# doesn't work there either.
Has anyone gotten this to work?
I have a d851 on t-mobile in the us and want to try to enable band 12 for lte
Glad that this treat is revoked again and sorry that there still is no usefully info about some interesting questions, specifically about hardware ( also regardless to ^^^post#15), would like to provide some personal update and experience past couple mounts with mine d851 model that i don't want to give up, since where i am, accordingly to lte i need bands 3 and 20, which d851 officially doesn't have them.
I did try every info that was find on net, was do a every idea that i can thing of (lacky me phone survive after couple serious crashes ), what from i know fore sure in editing android or it was hit and miss, try and error, restrictions of free (read demo) softwares, pagans magic and voodoo zens, etc etc... all i can say that i didn't succeed in enabling 3 and 20 bands and still looking for answers.
Also have a question: is it possible to change some hardware part (radio, modem, soc, whatever) and from d851 to transform in d855/d850/bands 3,20, and supporting it with appropriate software (kernel, baseband, whatever)?
I got it working.
working with qxdm not in a band 12 area dont know if it worked but settings sticking from boot.
You need to set the selinux to permissive then run from a su adb prompt
echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/lg_diag_cmd/diag_enable
setprop sys.usb.config acm,diag,mtp,adb
I followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059 but the only addition was using this to change selinux to permissive http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524485

I had performed a quick search regarding the...
Alcatel Linkhub - 4G LTE Wireless Gateway Modem Router (using EE Logo)
Model Name : EE Alcatel HH70VB
Model Number: HH70VB
... and I had located the following link that may not be your exact question but, it looks like it includes information that you may be looking for (though there's a handful of posts there that may/might also be helpful as well).
https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/4GEE-...-Wifi-home-router-had-a-bad-flash/td-p/720166
I had also located the following link that could also be helpful/useful to you too (in some way).

I couldn't, personally, locate any threads on the XDA Forum but, just because I couldn't locate anything, doesn't mean there isn't anything here.
This is the best guidance I, personally, can provide you with and I'm hoping that it was helpful for you to get what you need.
Good Luck!

Unless asked to do so, PLEASE don't PM me regarding support. Sent using The ClaRetoX Forum App on my Apple Macintosh.
thank @Ibuprophenphen;
i've been to the ee community site and the other backdoor reveal and thats how i got into the device to know it was still funcitoning. prob i have now is to flash with the firmware i downloaded. Thanks for all you help so far. Please let me know if you come across any other info.

Hi!
I've been lurking this forum for a while and am really eager to change my Galaxy Watch Active 2 CSC from Hungary to UK to make Samsung Pay work. I have a Curve card specially for this but I've been too afraid to do it because I'm afraid I will lose the 4G functionality of my Hungarian Telekom provider.
Right now my watch is set up with Telekom and has 4G set up as esim.
My big question is if I change my CSC to UK, will I lose the 4G functionality? Will I still be able to connect to my Hungarian esim account?
Please let me know, any information is greatly appreciated!!

I did it, Samsung Pay worked, but it doesn't connect to the Telekom network. Then I also made the mistake of wanting to re-register the eSIM, but it no longer allows me to try any available ROM. Now I should get the factory Telekom ROM, but I have no idea where it comes from. It sucks. Very big sucks.
Theory.
ESIM is activated and work. :good:
IMHO eSIM profile will not be erased.
So IMHO eSIM is lowest problem.
But SPay chance 50 / 50...
Maybe your plan will NOT work for Samsung Pay...

Hi Adfree,
First of all I want to thank you for your reply and all the work you are doing for this community. You are by far THE Galaxy watch expert. You're always commenting constructive feedback to people.
Everywhere I see your comments and helping out people. A big THANK YOU!
I will try to change the CSC, even though I'm a big newbie to this.
One last question: will I be able to revert the watch to its original state if it turns out it doesn't work? With that I mean original firmware that it came with?
