[Q] I Want To Flash FTF Of 4G For 3G - Sony Xperia ZR

What Will Happen If I Flash Stock FTF Or Flashed In Recovery Of 4G ZR For My 3G ZR " D5502 " ?

It should work. YOu will have the option to use LTE in the network settings, but of course you will not really get LTE.
To be able to use 4G your antenna needs to be compatible and the c5502's antenna is only 3G.
Short of this difference in settings you shouldn't notice any changes.

[Q][CM9] Modem, status? 3G/H icon available, but real speed is only 2G

Hi,
I flashed CM9 nightly on my galaxy tab,
tried 2012-04-27 and 2012-05-03. Everyhting works great, expect for the 3G transfer speeds. The status icons shows 3G/H, but the speed is still the same as when using 2G mode only. I already tried different modem files. Any advice how to debug the situation? with JPZ (in europe/switzerland) I see the 2g,3g,H icons but only get 2g speed. Speed was fine on Overcome v4.1
Thanks.
Try to flash different PRL's. I've expected the same problem when I've downloaded wrong PRL.

Did you try Settings -> More Settings -> Mobile networks -> Network mode, set it 4G only or auto connect.
Another workaround maybe there's problem with your apn's? For example I had it set to MMS then ahd EDGE available only.
Second warkaround is secret menu, type it in dialer *#0011#.
how to set up MMS then ahd EDGE available only?
and i typed ?*#0011# and its showing

I have exactly same problem with silver.. Have you fixed it? I have tried to fix problem some, but nothing looks like gonna fix it...
I have tried everything that was written on the forum..
When I check *#0011# it shows that only GSM900 is available...
Anybody?
Have you tried changing it to WCDMA. I was having that problem with the 3g service not going above a few kbs, I changed it from gsm to WCDMA nd its back to full speed 3mbs.

Where did you buy it?. Did you see if the modem frequency of the carrier it's available in your phone?, I got the same problem and it's possible that my phone doesn't have the hardware ready for the carrier in my country. I still looking for an answer.

LTE radio issue

Hello,
I bought an Xperia SP from bulgaria and the model is C5303 who supports LTE bands. The issue is that there is no such an option on settings to select LTE/WDCMA/GSM band. Only GSM and WCDMA. In the secret menu (*#*#4636#*#*) i cant select the LTE/GSM/WCDMA option, or any other option except GSM or WCDMA. When i press LTE option, it returns automatically, to WCDMA Preferred.
Any ideas?
Use flashtools to flash a stock ROM that is for c5303
Sent from my C5303 using xda premium
Thank you. I wait to be approved in order to use flashtool
Have you tried just to reset the phone to factory settings (wipe)? If that doesn't help perhaps you really should flash it with stock rom of your carrier/GSM provider, or at least try kernel only? Could you be so kind and post a screenshot from the normal settings screen, the part where you should have 3 options but you got only 2 (not the via code menu)?

i9305 Galaxy S3 LTE Signal Problem / fluctuates

Hi,
can You help me pls with ny LTE i9305 S3? I have problem with signal (antena OK, any sim any network), is just good outside but whan I go somwhere in house, is very bad or stop working network. I am not sure if can be some chip on motherboard problem, or if I solve this problem by some flash.
Thanks
Does it happen when you go inside in any place or just in your house? If it's just in your house then clearly it is just a problem of coverage on your area. I9305 international version supports bands 800, 1800 & 2600 for LTE where both 1800 and 2600 have bad coverage inside buildings. Check as another test if selecting 2g (pure GSM 900) you still have bad coverage. Can you try with a SIM of another carrier? This could also be the definitive test.
If it is a common problem (anywhere, any carrier...), then maybe you can solve it by flashing with Odin a different modem baseband (also called radio).
You have some basebands for download here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/djb-tgp/files/CWM_Flashables/Modems/4.3 Modems/
I'm using the XXUENA2 with very good results, been used before others also with no major problems (XXUEMK1 and XXUFNI3 for example).
This is my "About device" screenshot where you can see the Baseband I'm using. Works fine in Europe as well as in Brasil:

Hi, thanks for Your reply
my problem is in house, but anyway problem with signal is without any sim always.
So I have now 4.4.4 and pls can You show me where I can download good one modem for this Android for my LTE? I´ll try it
thanks so much
EDIT: I have one. Is South Africa 4.3, there is XXUENA2 Modem, so I´ll try it and let You know.
EDIT2: So I have problem, I can´t downgrade 4.4.4 to 4.3 because will EFS faulty, so You have some idea how I can choose repair my modem for signal repair?
Hey Paul...
1) About signal: how do you expect to get signal without SIM? Or maybe are you meaning signal for just the 112 emergency call?
2) Modem/baseband: I already provided the link in my original post, check it.
3) No need to downgrade. You will only flash the modem/baseband without touching any partition, neither the ROM nor the EFS. You can do that via Odin (check any Odin How-To document -search Google-) or via the recovery if you have TFRT or QWM (at recovery menu select flash zip file and choose the one for the modem -you need to copy the zip file previously to your sd card or internal memory).

Signal problem
Hello.Sir I have a s3 i9305 when i am on LTE auto network mode then i was unable to make any phone call it always show wrong mmi code or connection problem and then it lost signals after that i rebot it then it pick the network can you tell me how to fix

ZR does not get coverage in WCDMA mode.

I'm looking for a solution to ultra frustrating problem I encountered after performing OTA lollipop upgrade from kitkat. My network coverage gone after lollipop upgrade, I can't make calls or send messages. While I played with settings i found that with in Preferred network type there are three options as below.
WCDMA Only
GSM only
WCDMA (preferred)/GSM {Default option}
It was set to 3rd option. When I changed to GSM only option my calls and sms started to work flawlessly but as you all aware Internet was on 2G(Edge). To get HSPA working as far as I know I have to use WCDMA in xperia phones (Not to be confused with CDMA). When ever I switch to WCDMA my coverage goes off.. I can't make calls. So i end up using the phone in GSM only mode and made a thread in official xperia site as below. I also tried repairing using PC companion and resetting the phone no avail.
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z-ZL-ZR/xperia-zr-c5502-does-not-support-WCDMA-after-lollipop/td-p/1001920
As you can see one person with the ranking of moderator acknoledged the issue and suggested me to revert it back to Kit kat until the fix has been made. I tried flashing using flashtool still problem exist. Even in old kit kat firmware which i was using it for long time with out any issues. I think some thing has happend to my mobile after lollipop upgrade.
Yesterday I unlocked the boot loader and flashed Cynogenmod 11 as well.. Again same problem. WCDMA does not work thus no 3G. Now I'm using Sony official lollipop firmware by flashing via flashtool.. I ended up using my phone in GSM only mode (Edge).
Any suggestions? Ideas?
I would try downloading stock LP ftf file with XperiFirm, then using Flashtool and try flashing only baseband. Not sure if it would work if you install a KK baseband, i would stick only to LP files in the meantime.
There is also another option to force select the bands, just dial *#*#4636#*#*, go to "Phone Information", and on the preferred Network type, choose "WCDMA Preferred". Wait 5-10 minutes, it might take a while for the carrier to recapture phone signal.
If that doesn't work, you might want to check if somehow the bands were locked with the LP install. There is an excellent guide on how to unlock bands, i tried with my SO-04E (japanese C5503) and i was able to unlock some of them, as not all carriers on my country were recognizng HSPA, and were recognizing only EDGE.
