Hello just had a question about the Rogers version of the phone:
http://www.rogers.com/web/link/wire...normal&productId_Detailed=OPTIMUSGBLK&N=52+11
wondering if this is same as the att or sprint version or a different one all together?
bottom line:
when ill need to flash things which version should i choose?
I believe it's an entirely different version altogether, Rogers has their own version and Bell/Telus have their own as well.
Rogers is the E971.
I'm not really sure what version you'll need to flash with.
E971
Perfect thanks for the info

Nice I did the same for bell, but the baseband is the same. Weird as I thought this device supports bell dual cell hspa+ which rogers doesn't have.
Anyways its attached.
How about someone putting a version of the at&t version if we need to flash back. Also anyone tested these modems to see if it allows you to goto the network settings and choose wcdma ie 4g 3g it lte etc.

Thank you for this! Any chance you can do a stock flashable Bell rom too?

The rogers and bell versions both allow you to specify the order for GSM, HSPA, and LTE.
Here are the menu from my *#2263#* service mode. The problem is, my phose is not unlocked ans I don't have the sim card to try the other frequencies and see if the antenna can actually connect to these frequencies.
With my i9000m I was able to chose WCDMA 900 which was not supported by the phone.

i have i747m bell Galaxy S3. I want to use my Fido Sim on it. Will it unlock it or is it different procedure ?
Is it safe to do so? I dont want to brick my phone. Thanks
It won't unlock your phone by flashing the radio unfortunately. Shouldn't cause a brick though.

The Telus Version shows I747MVLLE8 as the Baseband Version as well.
Also for SIM unlock you can probably search eBay and get it for about $15. I unlocked my Telus phone to work on Rogers.
would the rogers modem work for att model?
I was told that LTE toggling depends on the ROM, not the modem.

Hi, my phone is originally Rogers but I had flashed over to an AT&T ROM. Would flashing this brick me phone or would it be okay? Thanks in advance!

They unlock the SG3 for $US 7.99. I unlocked mine and it works like a charm :good:

mine is locked to bell and they charge 33$ way to expensive.
did anyone actually try to flash this ZIP? it doesn't seem to actually work from CWM as it is not changing the baseband on my AT&T unit.
Like I said in the full dump thread, I don't think this is a modem dump. This was dumped using instructions for the international model which probably has a different partition layout.

We can get the modem.bin file from the Rogers ODIN package but how do we flash it?
Odin will not allow flashing a different model radio, so DD or a CWM zip will work (or mobile Odin once released for our model).

Hey ive got the gliderunning n rogers stock and since it dosent seem we are going to be getting any ICS love up here i have. Acouple questions:
1) can i flash the leaked at&t rom onto an unrooted Rogers glide?
2) or can i flash at&t firmware onto the rogers to get the official update?
Thanks from a newb

You can absolutely flash the leaked AT&T rom onto an unrooted Rogers glide, it's no different from installing it on an AT&T glide. If you're new to flashing in general, you can see my walkthrough here.
You should also be able to flash a stock AT&T firmware onto it and get the official update through Kies, but that seems like more effort than it's worth. I'd recommend either flashing the leak (and then clockworkmod and the keyboard backlight fix) or waiting for someone to release a version of the official 4.0.4 rom with the AT&T bloatware removed, which should happen soon.
You'll need to set your APN to match Rogers, or your MMS and internet won't work.
Hey thank you very much for answering..prob gonna give it a shot tonight. Gotta love paying 600 for a phone outright to get no help from your carrier lol.

Hi i just got a GS3 from Claro Puerto Rico and its model is i747m lte and im not shure witch rom i can install on it i was checking the at&t roms but at&t is i747 so im confused here i would like to know what rom is safe to flash on my GS3 i747m.
You should be able to flash Any ROM just back up or APN settings and do some reading on the different radio files and I believed u will be fime

i have my t-mobile t999 gs3 and i know what i can flash but this is new to me Claro was using the international version first but now they have LTE and changed the model to i747m,i think this version is not the same as the at&t version so i dont know if the roms are compatible and dont want to risk a brick.
All ROMs in this forum are compatible with your s3.

Ok so I bought a Galaxy SII unlock from ebay. Phone says t-mobile but the model # on my splash/boot screen says SGH-T989"D" how ever when I go to phone info it show as model SGH-T989 (no "D") my provider is t-mobile on a monthly unlimited (no contract) Phone works just trying to update to get the benefits from the update... I have tried to update using Samsung kies and it says device is not supported (am I missing something? ) so can anyone enlighten me to whats going on
* why phone is not detected in Kies.
* why cant I update to jelly bean.
* is the D on the model number for a different provider and is there a way to update to jelly bean through software from that provider.
UPDATE: Just realized that the model # SGH-T989"D" only shows up on my Splash/boot screen, in my about Phone > phone model it shows SGH-T989 (without the "D")
Feedback will be welcome
Thanks
I'm pretty sure the t989d is e Canadian variant from Wind Mobile.

from some other post Telus and Koodo.....this phone work on my t-mobile account it even says t-mobile when it boot and even on the front of the phone.
Could any one else give me more feedback to help me solve my issues
Thanks

What it says on the boot screen depends only on the Rom. If the front says T-Mobile it's probably a T989.

It doesn't really make a difference, both are the same and any t989 roms will work. It would be good to know which it actually is tho....a D or not a D. A few minor issues could arise. I have the D from Telus.
The only issue I can think of off the top of my head is that the 4.1.2 Tiberius kernel messes up my rotation. But I was also using a Telus based rom at the time. So not sure if that was a rom or phone model issue.

It doesn't matter if you're flashing the ROM, but if you use kies or odin it might not work with the wrong model. I had the t989 but I wanted the Koodo rom since there was less bloatware. I wasn't able to do it using kies or odin, but I could flash t989d roms through recovery.

Telus version updated the baseband version to the current one and now the t-mobile ROM seems to be working now
Hello,
Recently my friend gave me a T-mobile S4 which I successfully unlock using this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283068 )method. I aslo was able to install Chaos (universal) ROM and seems to be working fine, but I have a few questions.
Can I install an ATT ROM/Radio or I need to stick to universal ROMs?
Can I lose unlock status if I upgrade the radio?
TIA!
Anyone?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
I've never tried ATT ROMs and haven't seen much mention of them in this forum, but I know i9505 ROMs usually work if the developer hasn't put specific device checks in the updater-script. I would guess ATT ROMs will work as well. You may need to flash a T-Mobile kernel though. Radios that are not specific to your device should not be flashed.

Why would you want an ATT Rom or radio? The Tmobile radio package supports more frequencies than the AT&T version. I am currently using my M919 on an AT&T mvno and my girlfriend has the I337 (AT&T S4) so Ive switched sims around on both and could find no significant difference.
