[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ruinkhan:
No need to Follow this method anymore.

There is a much simplified method if you follow OP.

Go back to 1st post and follow instructions

Here is what I did to enable AWS on my Rogers note 2:]

I'm not responsible if you brick your device. Follow instructions at your own discretion.

Also please dont forget to thank sjravi for his fantastic workthat enabled us to use AWS band.

1. Download and back up NV files via NV writer+reader. Also make sure that you Samsung drivers are installed on your PC.

2. Google for QXDM Professional (I have 3.12.714 on Win7 64bit) & QPST (QPST is required to run QXDM, so make sure you download both programs).

3.Back up qcn file via QPST.(If something goes wrong you can just restore you qcn backup to get your phone back to functioning state) Here is the link on how to backup your qcn

4. Download note2_aws_nv.zip (created by sjravi and I have also downloaded nv aftr qxdm removed imei.zip by Manni.k

Note: you can use either one of them, you dont need both. Personally for me Manni.k's text file worked.

5.Then after downloading NV backup text file (in my case it was nv aftr qxdm removed imei.zip) I have changed the line 01877 in text file to look like this :

01877 (0x0755) - OK

80 03 E8 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 | €.è.............

basically added 80 03 E8 06 according to this post

After changing that, I saved the file on my desktop. (you will need this modified text file later to restore via NV reader/writer tool)

6.So now I moved to QXDM and QPST tools. First you need to make sure that you have added your usb port in QPST. Follow this instruction (Step 1 to 9) to add a port (as QXDM will not work if you dont add it).

Note that after adding a diagnostic port you might see your phone name as ???. Dont worry.

7.Now you need to add above diagnostic port in QXDM. Use this zip by sjravi and follw instruction. Also after adding your device port go ahead and open NV browser (check the zip for instruction).

8. You will need to manually enable these lines in NV browser. Simply click on the number and hit write (bottom right corner), wait till it says NV Written. If it says No response or No diagnostic response received, then keep hitting Write until you see NV Written. Check spoiler below for the NV parameters that need to be enabled. You will need to enable all of them in NV browser..

Also go to line 01877 in NV browser hit read and change the input number to 115868544 then hit Write. Make sure you get a response saying "NV Written". You can verify if it changed successfully by hitting read again and now input should say 115868544.

9.Now go back to NV Writer + Reader tool and restore modified NV text file that you saved on your desktop (Not your actual NV backup, but the one you downloaded and modified line 01877). Remember NV writer + Reader tool will keep saying device does not respond or connect. Be stubborn and keep trying to restore, you will eventually succeed (at least I had this problem).

Reboot your phone, insert T-Mobile or Wind Mobile SIM and go to Settings-->More Settings--->Mobile Networks and choose your desired network operator manually. (assuming you have already unlocked your phone , if not use this method to unlock. It worked for me.)

Also make sure you have correct APN addedto be able to use internet.

Even after adding correct APN I still had no data, so I turned off Data toggle in notification panel and turned it on. I got H+ right away :).

If you experience issues just restore your qcn backup via QPST and start all over again.

For Canadian users if you have Wnd Mobile add the following APN:

If you have voice & data plan add internet.windmobile.ca

If you have data only plan such as usb stick then add broadband.windmobile.ca

I was in the same situation as most of you are at the moment. Was very confused so thats why I decided to share my little noobish experience with you. Dont blame me if I missed something or if your phone blew up. I'm just as noob as you :)
