[Q] Galaxy Y Duos, GT-S6102B (changing Modem/Phone) - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl

Hi Team,
I'm from Colombia...
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Y Duos (S6102B), It Came with Gingerbread 2.3.6.
Version Kernel: 2.6.35.7 se.infra_AT_Sign_SEI-44 # 1.
Number of Compilation: GINGERBREAD.VJLC3.
*#1234#
PDA: S6102BVJLC3
PHONE: S6102BVJLC3
CSC: S6102BUUBLC2
What region does the firmware?
Where does this firmware?
I think that Samsung Galaxy Y Duos is very different to:
Samsung Galaxy Y (S5360)
Samsung Galaxy Y Pro (B5510)
Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos (B5512)
In Colombia the frequencies for WCDMA are 850MHz/1900MHz (like USA, Canada, Mexico, Chile, etc).
My GT-S6102B has preselected 900MHz/2100MHz Asian frequencies, and I need enable 850MHz/1900MHz for gain advantage of HSDPA (3.5G) data connections.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UMTS_networks
worldtimezone.com/gsm.html
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code
Could I use ODIN for update (wich file .OPS I doubt to use)?
According to ODIN (modem file option) how to change phone (modem or amss),tar.md5 file?
Could I unpacking zip (with firmware) specially for this model specifically, from samfirmware.com ? - (the zip has one only unextractable file)
Is It possible download files of Firmware from my mobile?
Thank you.
Jose Luis

Looks like your device is specifically tailored to Brazil, hence the B on S6102B and the weird frequencies.
I'm still investigating if the UMTS frequencies are software controlled or limited by hardware on a GT-S360L (currently supporting 850/1900 MHz UMTS, my goal is getting 850/2100 MHz).
I will let you know if I advance more.

Hi Jose Luis,
What you are reporting is weird as the GT-S6102 is supposed to be 900/2100 and the GT-S6102B is supposed to be 850/2100. I bought a GT-S6102B (exactly the same specs as yours: *#1234#, kernel, compilation) on Amazon.com 2 weeks ago. The HSDPA frequencies written on the box are 850/2100. Even if I live in Europe (frequency 2100), I especially bought my phone in the US to have the 850/2100 as I often travel in North America. I could not try yet if it works on 850MHz, but at least, it is written on the box.
Edit: I found this code *#*#197328640#*#* that seems to allow you to select the operating frequency. However, I didn't try it myself. Maybe somebody might confirm this?

Hi johnNavi,
I tried to changes frequency band using *#*#197328640#*#*, but the behavior is same;
Maybe you can change in the menu, selecting Frequencies for USA, but in functionality is not working.
I had a same case with GT-5670L(came with Gingerbread 2.3.4) -> updated to 2.3.6 for India, and the functionallity for operate in frequencies for America (Colombia Incluted) was damaged.
I needed to change only the file modem (phone) 2.3.6 to 2.3.4, not all Firmware.
Bye.

Hello,
to make it complete. I am from Germany stay in Argentina and have bored a S6102 from Russia.
Cards:
T-Mobile from germany (for phoning)
Moviestar from Argentina (for phoning and 3G)
Phone works fine, not like my HD2, but it works. Problem is, i cant use 3G (only Edge). could it be that i have the same problem with the frequency's?

Eso es precisamente lo que intentamos arreglar. (Is is that We tries to fix )

Ok guys, here's the result:
I flashed the modem part of my device using data from a 5360B and toyed with it through *#197328640#, setting to only accept the 2100 MHz. So far so good, but I wasn't able to get any operator on my carrier lists.
The conclusion? Looks like software has some minor capabilities to lock down any unknown frequency, but the lack of right hardware is the major problem for us.

Hi, Would you mind changing using a version 5360B for LA (S5360LUHLF1, S5360LUHLB1, S5360LUHKJ2) in S6102 model?
Is there problem going back to the original Firmware?

You must remember that Brazilian frequencies (850/2100) are different to Colombian (Chile, Argentina) frequencies (850/1900) for UMTS.
It's the test needed.

Hi Friend,
Sorry for asking you again, but I need to be secure for make changes in my phone.
I was reviewing in http://www.sammobile.com and I found that the S5630L Firmwares most complete would be Uruguay (850/1900/2100) and Venezuela (850/900/1800/1900) according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UMTS_networks
Uruguay:

My questions
Would it be possible to change the S6102B (the modem firmware) version S5360L one?
If problems occur the change can be returned?
Thank you.
Best regards,

Has anybody been able to make the s6102b pick the 850/1900 band by way of flashing new modem? Thanks

2.3.3 (UBJV6) upgrade for I9000T

Hi,
Just wanted to let you guys know the official upgrade is now available for the GT-I9000T.
Not sure what's new in it though.
Enjoy!
Did you get this through Kies?
Is it carrier specific?
What region?

According to Samfirmware letter code, UB is Brasil.
http://samfirmware.com/samsunglettercode.htm
Well, it is not a I9000B, which I believe is the Brasil version of the SGS. This one is the I9000T, and it is for TTT which initilally I found was dor Trinidad and Tobago.
And yes upgrade through Kies.
I have a I9000T too, using 2.2.1 and it shows me new version available.
Finally Brazilian languague for Gingerbread.
Can somebody post update here. I also have 9000T, but since sitting on custom ROM, Kies will not show the update.
Thank a lot
You can use this software.
It's too complicated. I have to disable Lagfix, flash new CSC, etc. Better to use Odin and flash the ROM at once.
Cannot find this with FusDownload... What product code, pda, phone, etc?
I9000t has 850 umts correct?
can you post the modem.bin?
i9000T use 850, here in Panama it's distributed using Cable and Wireless and they are using 850. Would be very nice if somebody post this ROM here for Odin update. Will solve many problem with local provider.
DITTO PLS post the odin tar

I don't think our problem here is with our modems, I'm guessing is C&W itself. I've tested my SIM in different GT-I9000Ts with 2.2.1 and even Official 2.2.3 (and other SIMs in my SGS as well); the connectivity is still ****ty as hell. [i.e. today's ping is high as hell, download reporting +/- 400, up 1.2]
Since they went to "3.5G", we've been experiencing lots of issues. Blame it on their NW. Throw some tests late at night and you'll see how responsive is the NW. Though, it would be nice to have this update to make further tests

Here they are:
PDA: I9000TUBJV6

S5360t roms and radios?

So I own the Telecom NZ version of the Galaxy Y. The only difference this phone has to the other version is that it supports the 850mhz 3G band in conjunction with the standard 2100mhz band.
I have managed to root the stock rom the phone came with (DOKK3 2.3.6), and I wanted to install Creeds Rom 3.5. I wiped the phone, flashed the rom and restarted, but my camera didn't work. I'm now back on stock DOKK3 (lucky I made a backup, because I can't find the original firmware anywhere else).
Is this because of the radio/baseband? It is currently DOKK3. Does it need to be anything specific? Would flashing an international radio disable the 850mhz 3G band?
Thank you for listening to all my questions

Normally it does not matter what baseband do you flash(thats only my opinion,when im false then sorry).my phone is mixed:the cusrom that im using based on DXLE1 a asia one and my baseband is XXLE1 a german one,the only thing on my phone is the language,its englisch but only the normal settings etc. all apps and etc. are in german and i have never problems.try an version from this thread to test.i think that you have a brandet phone,its a prepaid pack right?

You're from Cologne! How cool. I'll check out that link, and yes, my phone is a prepaid carrier branded one. However I haven't read anything about roms for it because it's only sold in New Zealand and there are probably only like 10,000 of them out there.
Thanks!
Don't suppose you have a flashable version of your DOKK baseband I could download? I made the stupid mistake of flashing my phone with an international version after I bricked it and didn't make a backup. Now it's not showing the XT network anymore.

Hey Ketchup,
I also have the Telecom NZ galaxy y and have experienced the same issue regarding the camera, and the accelerometer is also out by 90 degrees. However I did not make a backup of the stock rom
Can you please please please upload your copy of the stock rom so that I can download it? It would be very much appreciated as right now my phone is nearly unusable :crying:
Thanks very much

Settings for Base band switcher in Defyparts in quarx cm10 in india

hi,
I am having data connectivity problems with my defy. It periodically loses data connectivity and even switching off and switching on of the data toggle isnt helping. I have to restart every time i have to connect to net and then eventually it again looses the connection after sometime. So i am wondering it might be some problem with my settings in base band switcher.Quarx Cm10 dont have india in the South east asia region. So can any one suggest the settings for india? Also if some one else also faced the same problem kindly suggest how you overcome it.
Thanx in advance.

How to select proper settings
Hello. After testing of this program I (and some of my acquaintances) have not doubt that basebandswitcher really changes frequencies. But I feel that this program is just additional unlocker of operator (or locations) at operating system level.
For example:
I and two my acquaintances live in Ukraine. Frequencies:
2G 900/1800
3G 2100
All devices has been flashed equally:
At first flashed sbf 4.5.1-134_DFP-10;
then flashed radio EPU93_U_00.61.00;
after getting root and installing last version official CM7.2, which used by default this baseband settings: central_europe_34x (it is equivalent Central Europe Hong Kong, Taiwan, Arabia, France, Nordic 3.4.x United Kingdom 4.5.1-85 900/2100MHz)
The first device (from central Europe) start to work correctly after choice Europe RT 3.4.2-145;
The second (from Poland, was locked under orange) began to work correctly after choice Poland Orange 3.4.2-131z
My device from the USA (was locked under t-mobile). It works only with US T-Mobile 3.4.2-107-4 or US T-Mobile 3.4.2-107-9.
So, 3 devices equally flashed and used at one country, but worked on a miscellaneous (depending on from where has been brought). After a choice of settings for the INITIAL OPERATOR OR LOCATION (instead of current basebands values of current region) devices began to behave equally.

Sorry. I just open this topic again. My unit still the same no LTE option or acces. Pls help. Ty
I have the same problem in the Czech Republic.
Can any one provide assistance on this? I was told by a fellow N900L user that using a custom rom aryamod + Lean kernel might help. I do not know how to install custom rom and kernel. Does anyone know how to do this?
any updates on this? I just have may Note 3 2 days ago, and I'm having problem with weak sigal on TM/Globe.
Can it possibly root and flash a custom rom, I'm thinking to have it on Cyanogenmod ROM
First, check that your SIM/Phone provider offers 1. LTE 2. LTE in your area
Secondly, If your phone is a Korean Original, I dont think it will be global-ready... you may have to update the modem & CSC in order to receive the 4G/LTE bands that you are after.
Third, check the reception bands of your phone model and check that your provider/country uses those 3G/4G/LTE bands. (eg: 700MHz, 750, 850, 900, 1600, 1900 etc)

Third, check the reception bands of your phone model and check that your provider/country uses those 3G/4G/LTE bands. (eg: 700MHz, 750, 850, 900, 1600, 1900 etc)

I have had a brief look in my files and dont have your models firmware or modem to send.. I am not sure if SM-N900L has cross-compatibility with SM-N900S for example, I recall something like that or vice versa..
There are a few options;
> http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares
- Find and download the firmware appropriate.
> samsung-firmware.org
> Try connecting phone at desktop with Kies, this model may have an update per your area of the globe.

unfortunately there is no available stock firmware for n900L...but it's the same specs with n9005. so i guess i won't be havingg a problem with that stock firmware.
I'm currently running CM13 in my n900L, the rom was for n9005 and other Note3 with the same specs as Snapdragon800 chipset and Adreno GPU
It's work for me, i'm use ALL Band
Thanks bro :good:

Did you try manually select the band?
Enter the secret code *#2263# (*#BAND#) and try.

Glad that you sorted it out.

SM-G900MD vs SM-G900FD

Hello guys, need clarification, what the difference between SM-G900MD and SM-G900FD? Is it possible to use ROMs from MD for FD and from FD for MD? For my opinion they are similar.... but may be i'm wrong

As far as hardware they both are same. The SM-G900FD is for middle east countries and SM-G900MD is for Brazil.
I am using SM-G900MD on my SM-G900FD device without any problem. You have to check what bands are supported for your country.
Cheers
Dear altogether,
please excuse me, that I dig up this thread again, but I think I have more detailed question to this issue:

Despite the fact, that their hardware is the same, their supported bands are different as found in their specifications (https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...m-g900fd-galaxy-s5-duos-lte-a-samsung-pacific). Does that imply, that the range of supported bands is solely defined by the (modem-)software used?
If so, I would be quite happy!
Here is the background to my question:
I aquired a MD (as shown in download mode) which was labeled as FD (in Device Info -> Model in its stock firmware AND on its sticker behind the battery(!)).
Thinking to own a FD, I flashed the DevBase 3.5 by @_alexndr with noroot option (great thanks for this firmware, I already use it with a true FD!): http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-bof1-devbase-multi-csc-safe-bloat-t3145437.
When I bootet in download mode to flash the bootloader and modem as well, I first noted Knox 0x1 and then the letters SM-G900MD where I was to ecpect SM-G900FD. As I was curious, I flashed them anyway after finding this thread and the device booted successfully.
Now I ask myself, if this action made this device support the bands of the FD instead the ones of the MD. Unfortunately, I can not test it, as I have no LTE enabled SIM nor have I an idea to test the support of a single band.
Maybe there is someone who has an idea...
Best and thanks for your efforts!
