Hi there,
Apologies if this is the wrong section or if it has already been posted.
I recently acquired an 8500 from Overseas (Middle East region) which doesn't seem to hold a stable 2G or 3G signal here in Australia (both before and after the update - see below).
I am normally an Android guy, and with Android you have the ability to flash different radios/modems/basebands btu I cant seem to find this anywhere. Is the radio automatically upgraded when flashing a new firmware?
I just (literally hours ago) upgraded to KL6 but it seems the radio hasnt changed.
WHen I type in *#5239870*# into the phone this is what I got both before KL6 and after.
Pre flash to KL6
S8500+JP+JH1
Modem:
SHP: VPP R5 2.1.1
CSC: S8500OJPJG1
Post flash to KL6
S8500+XX+KL6
Modem:
SHP: VPP R5 2.1.1
CSC: S8500OXAKL6
Note in both cases, there is nothing next to Modem
Is there a repository of radio files that is out there (for the life of me, no amount of google or xda searches have found anything)?
Any Australian users out there care to share what modem they have?

That was for bada 1.2
Nothing available for 2.0 yet
Best Regards
Thanks, I am getting 3G but its just seems unstable.
Can I flash that same amss.bin from the argentinian 1.2 with my KL6 bada 2.0 firmware?
Frankenware 1.2.0
you can try but honestly i doubt that it will work
Best Regards
Right, MyLove90. I just went through the same thing with Bada 2.0 flashed on a Bell Mobility Canada S8500M that I am trying to use in Thailand.
Step 1 - Try amss.bin from DXKE1 firmware with Bada 2.0. - No boot up - freezes on flashing SIM image.
Step 2 - Try to flash DXKE1 complete firmware. This is a downgrade from Bada 2.0 to Bada 1.2. Also set Preconfiguration to THL (Thailand) from default KOR.
Now the phone boots up, but it it cannot be used with the GSM network. Why is this? GSM is a world phone, right? People travel all over the world with their GSM phones and just buy local SIMs while travelling don't they? I had no trouble at all with this when I first brought my T-Mobile G1 phone from the US here. I just popped in the same AIS SIM and it worked fine with no fiddling with the phone at all.
By the way, my Thai carrier is AIS, and setting preconfig to THL makes this a fully AIS phone. AIS menu options and Mobile AP settings, etc that were not there before now appear all over the phone menus.
When trying to dial, I get the no network service error. If I try to select network manually, or access the SIM for a contact phone number or to set a PIN lock, the message changes to "Emergency Calls Only".
So I'm starting to think that I have a defective phone with bad radio, but I figure, well, I can dial 911 with no harm because here emergency is 191. So I dial 911 and the phone dials and starts ringing. Oops! So I hang up so I won't get in trouble, but at least the phone works!
So what's wrong? I went to AIS and after playing with the menus and trying one of their SIMs, they blame the phone not being from Thailand, but as far as I can see, after the Thai firmware flash, this phone is the same as what Samsung shipped to AIS themselves. There are no SIM locks or any reason the phone shouldn't work.
Any ideas? Am I missing something?
can you please mention full info about your very first firmware maybe i can get it for you from Check fus or Slyfer ??
S8500M model is not available at all on Slyfer ...I just heard about it today
You can see...i am from Egypt and here we don't have branding or network lock and such stuff
So all what i can do right now is getting your old firmware for your so your phone work again
Best Regards
Wow! I never even thought about that being a solution!
S8500MUGJF5/S8500MBMCJF5 (BMC)

You also have to pay upwards of €100 per download, not sure if the CSC is included for that price either. I know because I bought 2 firmwares several months ago.
sabaramo, it sounds to me like your phone is not a 8500T or a 8500M model. Thus unless you are with Telstra, using the Argentinan modem file wouldn't be recommended as you would be changing your broadband frequencies.
Who is your telco?
Let me have another try with SamMobile this time
Maybe our admin add support for Canadian Wave
Please don't pay for a firmware again

You are so right mylove90! This experience is starting to bring back memories. I've been using my G1, so this phone has been put aside since I got it, but now I'm remembering how hard it was to find the original ROM. KrazyKong is right. It is 120 euros to download from that site. But with your help and suggestion, I started additional searching.
First I found this service tech offering to share it for a fee because he bought it too. I remember finding him last time I looked for the FW:
http://tinyurl.com/83w3q8k
He's actually on the second page of that thread, and I saw him around other forums last time I searched that firmware too. Other than the pay services, he's the only private party that comes up on that firmware search.
Still, I decided to search the FW name again to see if it crops up anywhere else for download. Actually, after a lot of practice with these searches, I'm starting to learn that Google isn't too useful, and that searching file servers like Megaupload directly are more useful, and those all panned out negative, as I expected since that firmware was non-existent last year too.
But searching that ROM number did find a fresh post from someone with the exact same phone as me and the exact same problem. It's really timely because he just posted the problem 5 days ago and found the answer 3 days ago.
http://tinyurl.com/7x25ags
In a nutshell, he recommends the Brazilian firmware because it has the same bands as our Bell Canada S8500M phones. I gave a try first just to flash the amss.bin file over my Thai firmware, but no luck. I am thinking it is because the Thai firmware I installed is Bada 1.2 and the Brazilian is 1.0.
So next I tried to flash the Open Brazil he recommended (but didn't work on his phone) because I didn't want to try the branded one first. That was unsuccessful because it's not a full firmware and I got error messages in downloading. I'm guessing again it's because I'm trying to load Bada 1.0 over 1.2.
Still, before going to the branded (Vivo Brazil) firmware, I took another look at samobile.com/firmware and found 2 similar Brazil ROMs misfiled under North America. But more hopefully, I found another "U" series ROM: S8500L UHJL1 (Bada 1.0)
I was hopeful for this because my Bell Canada phone is similar: S8500M UGJF5
Because of the common "U" prefix, or the close UH/UG combination, I had hopes that this might be a correct firmware belonging to my Canadian hardware, but for the other Canadian Wave provider/carrier, Rogers.
While I was flashing, I noticed the file name protocols for firmware files and saw that the Brazil file had "Open Brazil" embedded in the file name, so I checked the corresponding file name in this ROM and found CI Entel PCS, which is a provider in Claro, Chile. This corresponds well with the other firmware for S8500L, VCKH1, for Claro, Argentina.
So anyway, after finishing the flash, my phone is working again thanks to your tips and suggestions to point the way.
Thinking about the theory behind this, I have to ask why the regular telephony GSM bands didn't work regardless of firmware, or why flashing different amss.bin files didn't correct the problem.
The only thing I can conclude is that these S8500M phones have a different modem to accomodate Bell Mobility Canada and need firmware to support the oddball hardware. Fortunately this same hardware is available in other countries as well. This procedure also changed my phone to an S8500B.
my head is going to explode
WTH all these brands for
Why it isn't just a normal phone ?!
But still i have curioustiy to get that damn firmware for free
Thanks for explaning...maybe others can use this
Best Regards
I won't be paying for another firmware no. But the branded firmware I was after could not be located any other way than by paying and going through www.anysvc.mobi

Yeah, I understand the feeling mylove90. It had my head spinning too. This has been a big learning experience for me too. Like you, I just imagined all the phones were the same, and that having the right firmware would make it work anywhere in the world.
I can only guess, but I'm thinking a lot of non-standard telecommunications equipment is out there with the carriers, and Samsung just tries to accomodate their needs for hardware variations so they can make the sales.
A consequence of all this is that I have lost Badadroid. I used Rebellos' Bada 2.0 fota to install Badadroid the first time and everything worked fine. Now I need to set it up with Bada 1.0. Of course, this firmware isn't on the supported list in the tutorial, but I tried a couple of fixes posted in the thread.
First I installed the bootloaders that are supposed to enable you to run the regular TUT fota on any firmware version. I don't remember off hand what post I got them from, but they installed fine and did not disrupt my phone at all.
Next I tried to install the fota for Bada 2.0, but it doesn't work, giving a fota erase error. I suppose again this is a consequence of trying to mix Bada 2.0 files with Bada 1.0.
So, since I supposedly have the boot files that work with the TUT fota on any firmware, I went ahead and flashed the regular TUT fota. It will not start Android. It goes straight to Bada.
So then I got Rebellos new universal boot fota that is also supposed to run any firmware here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020444&page=34
http://code.google.com/p/badadroid/downloads/detail?name=S8500_bl_univ_boot_v2.3.zip
It does not work either, booting straight to Bada.
Any ideas? I hate to lose Android on this phone.
Also, if you find that Canadian firmware for free, let me know. I would like a copy in case I ever need to restore the phone to original.
You are trying with bada 1.0 !!
Fota won't work for sure because it is not supported at all
Also bada 2.0 Fota may have a different address
Universal fota may have or may not have your bootloader address it use
Flash XXJEE bootloader because i am sure it is supported
I think it will work as normal bootloader
S8500XXJEE bootloader : http://code.google.com/p/badadroid/downloads/detail?name=S8500XXJEE_BL.zip&can=4&q=
Also you may need to patch apps_compressed.bin to make it support fota
About patching apps
You can use mijona's app : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15159642&postcount=309
You have to use it through windows cmd....place it with apps file you want to patch...go to that path from cmd and write command as following
App_ena.exe <inputfile> <outputfile>
Example : App_ena.exe apps_compressed.bin patched_apps_compressed.bin
or read my post and try to do it yourself : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15151700&postcount=300
I think mijoma did a good job already

That's what I was thinking in my process of trial and error. I felt like the OS was protecting itself judging by the nature of the MultiLoarder error messages, so I wasn't worried about bricking the phone as I tried to see what the phone would and wouldn't tolerate.

Okay. I put those in. The phone accepted them and continued to boot just fine, but there is still no Android boot, so on to the next step:

Okay, so true! It's been a long time since I have edited files in hexadecimal, so that's nice. I don't mind hex editing, but I haven't poked around with Wave Remaker to get a feel of how to operate in it, so I appreciate mijona's file.
Navigating in cmd is a nice time to do work in C:\ !!!
So that was fun, but flashing patched_apps.compressed.bin made the phone stop booting. So I went on to another route.
Somehow I still had a tab for this thread open from my amss.bin research. These guys are struggling with the same issue in Bada 1.2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313675&page=3
Particularly this post gave me a lead on a solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20068355&postcount=26
I didn't follow their approach of mixing firmware files though.
Since the CSC file is also a "U" series ROM from Latin America, and in fact closely related to the CI Entel PCS from Claro, Chile firmware that I had already used to successfully get my phone working, I decided to use the entire firmware to reflash my phone with the indicated firmware: S8500LVCKH1
This firmware has no bootfiles, so I used the ones you gave me above. This flash was successful as far as the phone booting okay and working with my carrier. I was surprised to see all my setup options and changes still preserved after the flash. I expected to lose everything on a Full Download flash. I only lost the numbers I store in Contacts for the service menus. This firmware changes my phone to an S8500L. I lose the cute Bada animation for a cheesy Claro animation, and get a stupid message everytime reminding me that data charges can be expensive. If you know how to change the animation back and get rid of the message, it would be nice!
Since this is a Bada 1.2 firmware, I was hoping for this solution to get BadaDroid running again. Unfortunately there is no Android first boot with the power+menu+vol up command. It goes directly and immediately to Bada first.
I tried this both with the Rebellos' Universal Boot 2.3 fota
http://code.google.com/p/badadroid/downloads/detail?name=S8500_bl_univ_boot_v2.3.zip
And I also tried it with the TUT fota, but neither one will boot Android.
Any more ideas?
Of course, all this progress is possible because of your help. Thanks.
This time i had to know what i am dealing with so i downloaded that firmware
and as i thought Apps_compressed.bin needs to be patched
flash the patched file from an old multiloader let's say 5.62 so you won't get errors
If after flashing the file your phone didn't restart please don't panic
Just turn it off then on and it will be fine
Don't use fota made for bada 2.0 please....use the one from the tutorial
About Power On/Off animation
We got a great thread made by adfree in which he explains everything : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944620
An advice : Use latest Wave Remaker because it is so cool in this part
You can even make your very own animation
Believe it or not
bada hacking is more cool than the whole Android thing to me and more fun but needs someone who really try to do it
Best Regards
Okay! Thank You MyLove90! You have really made a happy day for me today!
Patching this binary did fix my Android boot, and I spent the rest of the afternoon re-installing all my Android apps.
I miss Bada 2.0, but it wasn't completely functional, so I actually have a better phone now that I have gone back to Bada 1.2.
Even though the Android port isn't complete, it is more fun than my T-Mobile G1 because I haven't upgraded Android yet. Now that I have the Wave working right, I'll go ahead and update the G1 too.
I found this post from mijoma as to possibly why the patch didn't fix my Bada 1.0 install:
"It's also problematic with loading patched version using new bootloaders."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15206739&postcount=1240
Of course, I used the same bootloaders you gave me for both the 1.0 and 1.2 installs, but maybe it was an issue of 1.0 compatibility.
I appreciate your appraisal of Bada. Before I got the Wave, I read rave reviews of Bada, so I didn't mind owning a Bada phone. I just need some Android apps when I'm out, so this phone is working great for me as is. It will be nice if the port is properly finished, but I'm glad I have what they have done.
Thanks also for the animation thread. I'll look into it and Wave Remaker more.

I have a problem similar to PKJ2011. I have an unlocked Bell Canadian wave with firmware S8500MUGJF5. I am using it in Barbados with that firmware on a 2G GSM900 network. I flashed it with S8500XXKL6 Euro firmware and now it is not getting signal on the 2G GSM900 band. When I do a network search it picks up the 2G GSM1900 band but it has a circle with a slash in it. Is there anything I can do to get it working with the Euro bada 2.0 firmware on the 2G GSM900 band since this phone is a quadband phone?

You have to wait for Bada 2.0 to be released for one of the carriers that uses our same modem. This includes some carriers in Australia and South America like Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. So I had to downgrade to Bada 1.2 to keep my phone working. I used Claro in Argentina.
Hi all, I have recently purchased a LETV X800 from Aliexpress. Seller said he will ship with international firmware but i've read that it comes with some viruses and malware.
First thing when i get the phone I want get it on the original firmware, as long as it has English! Can i flash the latest firmware from here? Or could you give me the right link to download the firmware?
Any tips on how to flash the original firmware on the X800?
First of all, you have to find out what kind of phone you get ! The CN model or the US version. Only then you know what firmware you can flash (or not !).
Oh, to quick with answer, see that you'll probably get the CN version. Maybe this forum is for you : ****://www.letv.re/forum/16-le-1-pro/
Thanks for the quick reply.
Yeh most probably i'll be getting a CN version. Phone should be reaching in about 7 to 10 days.
Hi there.
Just received the phone. I got a CN version.
Is it recommended to move to the latest EUI5.8.017S firmware? I am currently on EUI5.5.0.13s
Maybe for you it's better to ask your questions in the forum http://www.letv.re/forum/144-rom-cn/ ?
This one is more for the US version of the phone.
Thanks
does anyone know how to remove the network speed on the notification bar ?
Edit: Solved - Dual sim mobile networks >>data managment >> trafiic settings > turn on display real time speed
u can find it from setting -- about Phone , above have phone model
Hi
I just bought a ZenFone2 yesterday. It's a China/India variant
Code:
[B][U]551ML Z00_ADB[/U][/B]
- (4GB RAM + 16 GB Internal + 1.8Ghz CPU).
Because it's a "grey import" there's no manufacturor's warranty with it (unless I fly to China) - so I'm gonna get to modding this. Now I've been doing it for years with my previous HTC One and Galaxy S3..
However, this Asus Zen seems to be "too commonly named"... the variants, the different versions.. many of them ZE551ML - yet specs different. In fact it took me 5 minutes just to find this one I bought on any website at all (cuz usually the 1.8Ghz version is supposed to carry 2GB RAM)..
Anyway- sorry to drift off topic - I need a quick/easy link to the right files to turn this into a WW version with all 4G channels open hopefully.
It's currently on Android 5.0 and baseband 2.something...
I don't really want to experiment too much because it's my first upgrade in 4 yrs...
So ideally - I'd be asking anyone familiar with this specific variant to point me in the right direction..
Bootloader/Root
FW Upgrade
WWE Variant
Kernel
MM/Noug (I'd go with AICP but ZenUI does offer some cool stuff)
Very familiar with adb commands and stuff - I've been modding apps and kernels for a long time. *Not*Coder* though.
TIA

Okay - But this variant has only one Chinese band. I travel a lot (and live in UK) so I'd need EU + North America + India/Bangladesh -
-- Would be able to answer the rest of my question please? -- (the official asus site has only Lollipop in CN variant SKU, WW has Android M but Japan variant is even newer (Dec 2016) - Shall I grab those or....? I need to fully unlock/crack this open as I will be modding into Nougat soon from Cyano/AiCP

as i mentioned earlier none of the firmware will open all the frequencies.
TW version will open band 1,2,3,4,5,8,9,18,19,28
WW version will use 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,20
US version 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,17,20
CN version 1,20 on FDD and 38,39,40,41 on TDD
and you can choose any of above version of firmware. to change the firmware you must get RAW firmware of your desired version and flash it via Fastboot commands. there are other ways to do so like flashing ifwi and boot files then updating via zip.. but raw is the most safe method. as there are lot of chances you may brick your device..

buddy either you are unable to understand or i am not getting it.... being on latest firmware will not change anything in Band configuration. whatever firmware you are on. either it is very first release or the latest one band configuration will be the same. you have choose firmware according to your required Band Config. don't look at latest release. look at your requirement..

-Then you did not understand. Please let me repeat it again.
Your msg quote " choose firmware according to your required Band Config. don't look at latest release. look at your requirement. "
My question in my reply " What bout Japan? - They have the latest (Dec 2016) FW "
=
There was no information about the JP SKU FW
- so if I do not know what bands are availabe in THAT FW, then how will I know if it matches requirement?
Choose FW based on Requirement
Don't look at Release FW, look at your requirement. - That's a paradox BUDDY.
Someone has to look at the Released FW (bands + other features) AND then check if it matches their requirement. YES?
Also (separate question)
isn't it possible to merge the various radio_xx.img from different FWs into one CFW so all are open? I've done it previously for HTC One long time ago. I'm wondering if it is different for this device or OS.

unfortunately i tried to activate different bands but no success till now.. as per concern with JP firmware.. download it and look for active 4G bands in tlv file..... i don't have JP firmware on my PC. and not willing to download too. data is too costly Buddy. so check it yourself
Solved it, it was easier than other phones actually sys/intel has the right files that need merging from different variants.

can you elaborate which additional band you opened on which firmware?
Hi there,
my girlfriend has a Mi 10T Pro and still has MIUI 12.1.4 and security Update from February.
Is this normal in Europe or is there something wrong?
I read here about global Version of 12.1.5 for months now, but it still hasn't arrived in germany?!?
The device is in original firmware and bought free, no provider device.
Thanks for answers!
btw: Is there a normal Firmware update thread? For my Huawei P30 Pro there is a thread for updates, but here I don't find the thread where users just post: I got Update xyz in my land and it has these descriptions.
Hi,
Here is the actual list about the available firmwares for MI 10T pro:
Download Install MIUI ROM for Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro firmware
Download & Install MIUI ROM for Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro – All MIUI firmware that will help to upgrade or downgrade your Xiaomi smartphone.

It's OK that you are in Germany, but your phone is global, eea, or what?
You can flash the latest fw, but you must to be sure which version need or else you can brick your device.....
I wrote above that the phone is global
And I don't want to flash anything, I want to know why there is no update from Xiaomi itself for the phone. You know OTA.....
And the thread you posted is not what I asked for
Yes, you have right.
I don't know why not updated automatically your phone, but you can do the followings:
Settings\About the phone\MIUI version:
click sometimes the 12 "logo" and you will get some extra options...
right upside, clik on the dots ( menu ) \ update settings.... download automatically, and accept earlier updates
If still not update, you can download manually from the mentioned link the right version, copy your phone, and select the update package manually.
Didn't change anything.... and I just don't want to download. It has to work automatically.
Is there anybody else with the problem?
Even changed system region to India...
If manually checking for updates doesn't work, then you'll have to wait. Update rollouts don't occur to all phones at once and sometimes they get paused or even skipped until the next version when bugs arise.
You'll get it when you get it.
Same here, also Mi 10T Pro Global in Germany.
I tried changing region to India, but no difference. So I think, we have to wait :-(
Just follow the steps in post #4 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/update-12-1-5-in-europe.4312725/post-85403933 and download the rom from the official miui download page. Also set back your region to your default. Sometimes it just takes more time for the update to appear but you can always update it manually - it's not a big deal.
I'm in the UK with a Mi10T Pro with a Global/EU firmware, and was stuck on MIUI 12.1 with January security updates.
I downloaded this stable Firmware from the FlashXiaomi website:
https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.5.3.0.RJDEUXM/miui_APOLLOEEAGlobal_V12.5.3.0.RJDEUXM_394b6c2000_11.0.zip
Then you go to settings/about phone/MIUI version and then keep taping the logo till it says something like additional features activated.
Then click on the 3 dots in the right corner and it will say 'Choose update package'
Hello to all,
I'm here because I need help with a problem.
I have a onepus 9 pro model LE2121 (version LE2121_11_C.66). I think it is Indian from what I have read here.
I want to change it to the european version LE2123 (with android 13 if is posible).
I have tried to download the rom using the app "Oxygen updater" selecting the European device, it says that my version is Indian and that I must select the correct version, anyway I download the European version and then in settings > local installation, but I get an error when check the package and it doesn't start the installation. I have also tried the application "system update" but I still have the same problem.
As descrived here
(I haven't touched the roms on my devices for about ten years now... I seem to have gone stale.)
What am I doing wrong, or what do I have to do to be able to update?
Thank you all in advance
I'm pretty sure you need to use the appropriate MSM tool. Lots of reading and fully understand what you're doing. Someone more knowledgeable will be able to help.
It should be covered in this forum
This should start you off in the right direction, have a read through and post in that thread for support
