To all who may have taken advantage of the $300 -$100 Visa or Gift Card for this phone: What Version and Baseband is your phone running?
My phone is running Android 4.0.4 & T989DTLLG2. I find no reference to this baseband on Koodo, Telus, Samsung or searching Google for that matter.
Who can confirm that this is the new valid version and baseband for Koodo?
FYI, I just spent an hour on the phone with "Tech Support" who only wanted to argue with me that this "information wasn't relevant or is available to her". Her customer service was atrocious which in fairness to Koodo was the first time I've encountered such bad service.
Koodo = Telus basically, TLLE4 is the ICS radio for telus so I would assume that TLLG2 would be koodo just different naming schemes, or it seems like as it's the same phone. Plus the telus radio is more than likely compatible with the koodo phone.
Correct Koodo is a Telus subsidiary but Telus' version is 4.0.3 and Koodo's is 4.0.4. This leads me to believe the radio could be an upgrade rather than just a rename.
Any one confirm or refute that Telus radio T989DTLLE4 = Koodo T989DTLLG2?

Nice, any chance to dump the ROM and radio for the rest of us who got 4.0.3 and LE4 from Telus?

Be happy to once I figure out how. Any pointers?
FYI, I'm coming from a Galaxy Ace and have flashed many roms via CWM. Not so familiar with ODIN which I believe would figure into the equation of your request.

To extract the radio, follow the steps here:

To get the system image, just do a nandroid backup in CWM and extract the system TAR file (not the other CACHE/DATA files which may contain your personal information).
Thanks a lot!

Did you dump the stock baseband/radio from your phone?
I loaded a different one to unlock my phone (which worked) but I want to use odin to flash back the latest one.
Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
My phone is as follows:
Koodo Samsung Galaxy S II X
Model number SGH-T989D
Thanks in advance,

Here is a link where you can download the stock TLLG2 Koodo Radio. And for the stock TLLE4 Telus radio you can download it from here.
You should be able to download a .zip file which you can flash through CWM/TWRP. A little searching through the threads goes a long way. Cheers!

The i747M is the Canadian model for carriers such as Rogers and Telus
The i747 is for AT&T etc
The ROMs are interchangable, but I think the modems are different. For flashing, you can mix and match in ODIN (however you should keep your i747M modem). Which carrier's SIM card are you using?

He mentioned he's in china, using a canadian modem won't help much.
I'm with Rogers and use the latest modem. Just gotta look for your carrier's modem if you get bad/no reception. And check your APNs of course.
But like Unknown mentioned, I747M and I747 are pretty much the same and ROMs will work on both.

ODIN should generate an error message if you attempted to do it.

I doubt that chinese is included as these ROMs are for the US/ Canadian markets.
I'd suggest that you keep the stock ROM on the device as is.

Does your current phone work fine with the data-plan on your SIM card? If so, the only think you need to be concerned about is how to flash a new language on the device.
Basic rooting should be able to achieve this.

I'd suggest you use the stock LL1 ROM from the Puerto Rican market. This has NO carrier bloat whatsoever and will flash successfully on your device (i747M).
You would use ODIN to flash this.

Android Version is????? and plese give me the link,thanks.
I just moved over to an I747 yesterday (previously I had a Verizon I535 S3 on Verizon), and I'm running one of the modded TW 4.1 ROMs from XDA. Well, I noticed it is downloading a big update, which I presume may be 4.3. I've stopped it because primarily I don't want any bootloader surprises. Can anyone else confirm that is what this update is?

Yup, the ROM I was on said it was 4.1.2, but clearly it was 4.1.1. Thanks.

What does your current modem/baseband show? I'm running ezkat and flashed the rogers modem no problem. I'm with Koodo in Canada i317m
If you download the latest Stock ROM from sammobile you should be able to extract the modem and flash it using odin. source
I have the stock koodo rom and was able to do the above succesfully to test just now.

Perhaps it's time for a new rom? Rogers, Telus, Bell, Fido, etc... all use the exact same modem. I finally have all my roms and mods all linked in my sig. I also flashed the MK5 just right now. Everything seems to be working fine on my end.
Edit: So this morning when I started to make a few phone calls my phone would just reboot itself and be stuck in a bootloop. Flashed the BMA3 modem and everything is back to norm.

The Canadian stock 4.4.2 firmware came out today. I'd recommend you Odin the stock 4.4.2 Telus firmware then rooting it again. This way you get the lastest Telus Modem and 4.4.2 booloader. Latest Telus Modem is in my sig. You can try it. Works great for me on eZKAT 2.0 rom.

Do you know if all the Canadian carriers use the same modem? I am on Bell Mobility and was thinking of downloading the new image today to extract the modem. I just downloaded your Telus KK one but am hesitant to flash it..

Yes, most Canadian carriers (Telus, Bell, and Rogers/Fido) uses the same modem. Not sure about Wind and Mobilicity though.

Not sure about 4.1.2. Do yourself a favor and spend 30mins and get it done right.

OK.. I flashed the zip in your sig. Was a bit better, but still having reception issues. Does the zip include firmware update? If not do you think flashing this would help? I'm a bit out of practice so please gimmi the steps to update my bootloader. And is there a advantage to doing this?
