Question about custom ROMs and baseband/modem - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does custom ROMS replace/change the modem/Radio/baseband of our phone? I own Korean note 2 e250s LTE and i installed Ultimate ROM in AT&T and it work great and my model number got changed to N7105 from e250 s. I read that I can install any custom ROMs meant for n7105, tmobile, AT&T etc as long as modem of my phone dont get change
How can i flash custom ROMs without changing the modem or how i can know that which custom ROM will change the kernel or modem of the phone..I am not talking about aroma installer which give us option to not install modem or kernel
Are there chances of bricking the phone if I flash the custon ROMs meant for different versions of note 2 or if my korean baseband get replaced with any other ..

First of all, do an efs backup. After that, you can try whatever rom you decide to flash. Not all roms come with modem.

I own n7105 international version. I dunno if korean version will be different or not. But certain rom got option to keep ur modem and csc file. If not... you can download modem and csc file of your region to avoid any signal lost or other problems due to different modem and csc files.

Yes it's different from Nandroid back up. For more info about efs, here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2420881

my friend changed his phone in brick after flashing i7000 rom
You can flash 7100 on 7105 HOWEVER you'll need to do some modifying of system files
[HOWTO] Port N7100 ROMs to I317 and N7105
Check out this thread from teh AT&T forums. It'll apply the same in regards to libs, etc files
Also you'll likely need to replace the boot.img/kernel with one for the n7105 and remove any modem from the ROM zip as that would be a way to brick your device

[Q] Is GT-N7100 from other vender count as the same model?

I want to flash this stock with root injected rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975560&page=28
on my Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 that has the original stock rom from Thai's vendor.
While I've done a lot of flashing rom on the 1st Note GT-N7000 and there's this kind of rooted stock rom release with all variation of rom including Thailand version so I just feel safe and flash it away with odin without problem.
but Note II forum have splitted into 4 version of American's vendor. And I found this thread of stock injected rom with some of different vendor, Now I'm not sure if there's any different in hardware of my phone and those vendor. Because there's no LTE in Thailand and I don't know if this function's include on the phone or not. or if there's any other of hardware's different.
So my question is does my Note II and any other GT-7100 from different vendor are the same model? Is it safe to using available rom or root method from this forum on my phone? or if not, where's the right place for me to find more information of my "international" version of Note II?
The tmobile version shares more similarities with the N7105 than the N7100. You cannot flash tmobile based ROMs on your phone. The correct forum for you is

Just in case some of you may not know, but none of the CWM or TWRP
flashable custom roms here in XDA come with a modem/radio.
So what happens is, when flashing any of these zip file custom roms they do not
over write the existing modems since these custom roms have no modem in em.
That''s why it's safe to flash the i9505 roms, however this does not mean that you can flash any custom
roms, only certain Galaxy S4 roms are safe to flash unless the devs port a Verizon rom for example.
I already flashed the i9505 rom and it worked just fine, but basically it's not much if any different than the M919 Tmobile
roms. There is one thing which you will loose if you do flash a i9505 rom, you will no longer have wifi calling.
Good luck.

Ooo, did not know that the modem had no roms, now I know, and that's right, you have reason, be careful with the roms you flashed, should be similar to international models. In this case I337 and M919 models are similar to the I9505 international rom quadcore (i9500 not! Octa) And finally, if lost wifi calling, but in my country MX, operators do not have that yet, maybe in some future , but when you need it the original rom I can find it.
Greetings.

You don't have to make sure because NONE of the custom roms come or came with a modem image.
All the developers have know not to include modems in any of these custom roms for many years now.

Got samsung galaxy note 2 Korean version(E250S) by mistake

Hi guys,
I purchased note 2 on on ebay UK and the seller did not mention anything about version but now i see its note 2 LTE 4g version . I see that most custom ROMS are there for international version n7100. Is there any way to convert Korean version into n7100 to get advantage of most custom ROMS? Which one is better? i see that mine have got 32 gb internal memory and is LTE 4g any useful in uk?
I will also apprecaite if someone guide me root procedure and install CMW recovery for this version
Thanks in advance
No there isn't an easy way to convert your phone into an n7100.Internal hardware is a bit different and that makes all the difference.

Its stupid for samsung to release so many versions of same device with almost same specifications and call all of them as note 2..why korean cannot use same note 2 which people use in uk and rest of the world
Is there any way to root this korean model and install cmw and get rid of koreans apps

if you have the lte/4g model, you could try the custom roms for the N7105
i think i have a t-mobile version myself but flashing the roms marked for "t0lte" (international unbranded version) work flawlessly for me

You can change to 4.2 or 4.3 but the boot.img must be changed too. If not, your phone will get boot lop. My phone is E250S too and i use Deadman DMB6 Rom with SJkoon kernel V1.83, don't change baseband version, if not your phone doesn't has signal for calling. SJkoon kernels don't support 4.3 now so we have to wait.

[Q] flashing N7105 to T889

can I flash stock rooted ROM of N7105 4.3 to unlocked T-Mobile t889 4.1.2?
Regards
guys ...any reply please
I would like to know the answer to this too for the record. People say the hardware for both the N7105 and the T889 and I317 is similar but there's no concrete information other than someone 'saying so'.

Hardware is basically the same except modem, so any roms that have a modem must have an i317 or a t889 modem in its place, or the installer script must be updated for the removal of the modem out of the zip.

Guys, I had the same issue, you could install any roms from n7105 roms... Then install modem and update VPN... Try dn3 roms... Its good.
