I enabled AWS on my ATT S4 with 4.4.2 before. Yesterday I upgraded to lollipop and kept root by following muniz_ri's thread. Do I still have AWS band enabled? If no, does this method work for s4 with lollipop? Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Maxpowersxp:
i tried this mod for fun with my virgin(bell) s4 that is and with lollipop I get usb device not recognized(win7) when im in any of the last 3 options on the *#8080 screen, Iv tried different cables, laptops, the *#9090 settings mentioned above, and I get unknown USB device in windows 8. I have not tired to do a full format nor have I tried this before lollipop. phone works fine as USB/abd so it might be just my phone but I suggest to anyone do this mod before you update in case its not just my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] stefanthehuman:
I have legit followed all the steps in 3 different computers and 2 VMs and I am always stuck at the fact that there are no drivers available to install when it switched over to rndis.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] megaoreo:
Is this still possible to do on Lolipop 5.0.1 without rooting? I've literally spent all day trying to do this and get stuck on step 5-6. I cant get my pc to install the proper drivers no matter what I try . Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jian1:
so lollipop doesn't work, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dohdies:
Seem to be that way. I also have the same problem doing this after update to 5.01.

Windows 7 won't recognize the phone with RNDIS + DM + MODEM usb settings.

EDIT*** just found this thread

but I'm already flash to 4.4.4. Can any one confirm above method with 5.01. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] matchmakeme:
So my question is this. If I downgrade my phone that has lollipop to 4.4.4 and then enable AWS bands will they stay enabled in lollipop or will they get disabled when I upgrade. Even better has anyone succesfully enabled AWS in lollipop?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Buccanero:
People have stated that the enabled bands should persist even through ROM changes as the way you're enabling them isn't tied to the ROM itself. It just looks like something changed in Lollipop that made it impossible to use the method described to enable them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jonb13:
Yes, I used this thread to enable AWS on 4.4.x many months ago then upgraded recently to 5.0.1 on the phone/OTA without issue.

5.0.1 lolipop on samsung galaxy i337m

Hey, i got a samsung galaxy s4 with 4.4.2 and it aws mod. If I upgrade my samsung galaxy s4 i337m to lolipop will my aws mod go away?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cantenna:
Working for me in lollipop, enabled in KitKat :) XDA is great ::))
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ariex8:
Wait so, you aws mod your phone on kitkkat and you upgraded it to lolipop and it still working?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cantenna:
Yes, using modified XDA ROMs of course. danvdh gpe 4.4.4 and danvdh 5.0.1. Also used Cm11 and Cm12. Haven't used a actual true OEM stock in years, so can't confirm aws mod would hold there.

Sorry just to confirm if my S4 is on 5.0.1 (rogers S4) i must download stock rom of 4.4.4? I can downgrade S4 5.0.1 to 4.4.4?

Any other solutions to enable AWS on 5.0.1?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dark_Fantom:
From what I can tell it persists through from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1, but if I downgrade to 4.4.4, enable AWS and then flash CM 12.1 will it persist? or is it only on OTA updates?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Buccanero:
I think it should persist, but I haven't done that myself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DemisesAngel:
What are the ways to tell if this have been applied properly? I've used mzTool to verify the decimal value that I applied (this was based on the 4.4.4 thread) and I've looked through some of the hidden menus, but all I've seen my phone hit is "LTE Band 2 850+10MHz." The "LTE Discovery" app wasn't too informative for me either.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] A0425A:
So I'm confused by this post. If we are on NJ4 and want to enable AWS do we use the directions linked in this post??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] unlocked01:
Can I ask why everyone is busy trying to patch the QCN file to enable AWS? There's no guarantee an OTA update won't wipe out AWS support. Though I understand updating from KITKAT to LOLLIPOP there were no issues but there's no one knows for sure this will stick in the next OTA update.

I was able to flash the stock M919V rom onto my i337M model without any problems. I tested updating from KITKAT using OTA and with KIES...no issues, it just downloads the update for the M919V model and flashes it keeping AWS intact. And there was no need to waste time downgrading the firmware in order to patch the QCN file, etc.

The only drawback is LTE is disabled in this rom but if you need AWS for WIND or Mobilicity I don't see why you'd need the LTE bands.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
Worked great thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mahasmb:
I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy S4 (i337m) currently running CyanogenMod 11, Android 4.4.4 (I don't mind changing the ROM if there's a better one. And of course, I'd prefer Lollipop). Baseband version: I337MVLUAMG1.

I switched to Wind mobile just yesterday with the intent of using this guide to enable AWS on my phone. I am currently left with a phone that is unable to connect to Wind.

I have tried installing the phoneutil.apk but it will not install. I get a message that says "app not installed." When punching in *#0808# or *#7284# I get "Mobile network not available."

Please, if anyone can't point me in the right direction, please help. I am left without a properly working phone in the meantime. Should I install a different ROM? Do I have to change modems?

Any help will be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
The problem is you are running CM. For this to work you must be running a Touch wiz rom. Same thing happened to me with Miui. I had to flash a kitkat tw rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mahasmb:
Thanks for replying!

Alright, I'll go back to stock and take it from there. Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
I just flashed any kitkat tw rom like imperium and did the aws modification and now I can use wind on any rom

Okay. I'll try that.

Thanks a bunch again.

That don't matter. I just selected italy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] HansZ!:
SO anyhow I've flashed it, everything went fine and then wen i boot it appeared stuck on samsung message for a long time (as long as few hours, until battery died). So then I've used ODIN and tried to reflash it to bell stock 4.4.2 ( I337MVLUAMDJ_I337MOYAAMDJ_I337MVLUAMDJ_HOME.tar), again flashed successful, and again same problem - stuck on boot message (Samsung). I was on stock lollipop 5.0.1, phone is brand new. Now I need help....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
Sorry tapatalk accidentally hit like. Anyway I never had that at all. Did you try booting into recovery and wiping data and cache? I find whenever I use Odin I have to otherwise I will get boot loop. Only thing is it will erase you internal storage. You can try flashing jfltecan twrp through Odin and supersu then boot into twrp and restore your backup rom if you have one or flash one
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
Hi Zehlek,

I want to get my galaxy s4 bell with lollipop to work with WIND.

I am getting the same error that device is not recognized when i switch to RNDIS +DM + MODEM, how did you solve that?

Can you provide step by step instructions if possible please?

Would really appreciate that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
First of all, are you stock lollipop or custom rom?

Are you unlocked?

What recovery do you have?

Are you rooted?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
stock lollipop

unlocked

i dont have any recovery but i dont care if something is lost on the phone

i am not rooted
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
Hopefully this works for you. This is what I did

Flash this with Odin to get root

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293800

Flash this with Odin to install twrp.

https://dl.twrp.me/jfltecan/

Flash any kitkat rom like the one I posted a few posts back

Do what is posted in OP to enable AWS.

Then just flash any lollipop rom you wish
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
I flashed with Odin to install twrp. Installed twrp-2.8.4.0-jfltecan.tar. But when i press volume down, power and home, it takes me to download mode and when i confirm by volume up then it turns off.

Any idea what i did wrong?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
It said flash was successful? Turn off phone and hold volume up an power for recovery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
It worked, okay i understand i need to create backup of my system and install new kitkat that i have to find right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
That is it yes. Once you have installed a kitkat rom (Must be touchwiz) you can do the process to enable aws
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
I am downloading this android downloadandroidrom.com/file/Gummy/M3/GalaxyS4/Gummy-M3.0-07-16-14-RELEASE-jflte.zip

Then I will start to enable aws as it is described in the first post.

Do you know what is the executable file name of QPST configuration? Hmm not sure if that is in QPST\bin location?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] HansZ!:
So I've fixed it. I've installed twrp recovery, rotted phone, flashed 4.2.2 bell ROM (so step back from 5.0.1. to 4.2.2) and after successful re-flash did factory reset thru recovery. Phone finally booted.:o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] pit_ns:
Can you provide link to 4.2.2 bell ROM please?

I recommend FJLTE GPE by DANVDH. I just cut my teeth on this excellent LOLLIPOP. I started with a rooted 4.4.2, read for several days and ended up throwing in with Dan, version 2015 0601 and have had 3 updates to date.

I flashed the phone with different androids and i was able to enable aws, but when i try to call and somebody calls me, it starts lagging, and freezes, whatever i do it does that all the time, is that file correct for SGH-1337M?

I use odin to install android.

Did you use 337_AWS.qcn file from the first post for you Canadian Bell I337M? I think i have problem with calling because of it. Was there any update to it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
I used the one in OP. No issues with mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] HansZ!:
Actually i'm back at the beginning... Once I have installed 4.2.2 room as per my previous post, phone at first looked fine however i had some strange problems (no sounds/audio at all, after placing call phone freezes, blacks out) but i was able to properly execute AWS guide from the first page. I've tried to upgrade to custom lollipops after AWS procedure, such as goldeneye and kangapop, however I was getting on sorts of error and phone just couldn't function. Then I went back to stock bell 5.0.1 and now phone is normal, but I lost AWS. I believe that I have to fully downgrade rom including modem....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] HansZ!:
Moving forward, I've found following guide:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/general/i9505-downgrade-5-0-lollipop-to-4-4-2-t3052472

Now I need to find correct bootloader and modem files for sgh-i337m Bell. Has anyone done this before (with sgh-i337m)? Thanks for help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
You didn't need to downgrade bootloader and modem. Just flash a kitkat Tw rom like imperium. Anyway you can download LP firmware from sammobile for bell. Not sure if flashing full firmware will remove the aws or not
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] HansZ!:
Correct. I was overdoing things, however mistake was actually not doing proper wipes before ROM flashing (factory restore wipe, then 4 individual segments one). After re-rooting, again installing custom recovery (lost with official ROM), I flashed imperium 4.4.2; and due to proper wipes, this time phone booted correctly without any problems. PC immediately installed com ports (following first post steps), and WIND was enabled. Then I've decided to upgrade to lollipop, and first tried flashing latest imperium lollipop ROM. Problem with this ROM was that for some reason phone touch screen didn't work!? I had to use combination of buttons (power, home, volume) to move trough installation options, so i quit. Then I've downloaded and installed latest lollipop goldeneye (proper wipes again) and ROM was flashed good, no problems. After initial boot up network wasn't showing, I went to manually re-scan available networks and WIND popped up. IT works!!! I've used S4 so far for few hours, didn't noticed any problems. Thanks Zehlek for guidance:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
No problem I'm glad it worked
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xperia Player:
hey you seem to know a good amount of info about this, so I'll ask you (others feel free to answer too ;) )

does this tutorial require your bootloader to be unlocked? My phone is SIM unlocked and is running the NC1 base band. I get to the restore option at 5% then it says received an invalid command from the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
If you are using a Canadian S4 then i believe your bootloader is unlocked. For baseband not sure if needed but i was on ll oc4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xperia Player:
I got it working after I flashed the MF3 modem thus changing the baseband. Only problem is not many roms support the MF3 baseband. I'm wondering if anyone else with an ATT S4 has successfully got this working with other basebands. NC1 always fails at 5%
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] xocoatl:
Stuck trying to get this to work. I have a rogers S4. Have unlocked, and then downgraded to 4.4.2 rom from sammobile (won't let me post link, but its the rogers 4.4.2 one)

Following directions if first post, it seems to load the new .qcn file, but I still don't see AWS active.

Do I need to try an older ROM? or am I missing a step I need to do with a 4.4.2 rom?

Any guidance appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Xperia Player:
Mine seemed to load but how can I tell if I'm getting the AWS bands? I usually have 4G LTE 99% of the time.

QPST Won't recognize my sgh-i337m(telus)

I have been trying to get QPST to recognize an s4 I was given. it is sim unlocked but as we all know only recognizes the wind away frequencies. I have made all the proper steps by installing the drivers and setting up QPST, but for some reason my QPST wont recognize the ports that the phone is running on. I am so close! I do not want to go back to my ZTE Zinger! I have switched between the two USB settings already, and neither seems to make a difference. The most frustrating part is my mother owns an original wind sgh-m919v wind s4 that QPST recognized with absolutely no hiccups! I do not understand. Is it a hardware issue? I have already hard reset the phone through the stock recovery. I am running 5.0.1. and to the gentleman above me who had trouble connecting the phone via usb you need to enable cp logging through the stock recovery. Any help would be appreciated please! is this something to do with my version of QPST. F.Y.I. it is 2.7.

I have an AT&T G4 Sgh 1337

android 5.0.1

Build #LRX22C1337UCUGOC3

It was my Dad's phone it's nicer than the one I had so I unlocked it to use on T-Mobil but have found that the data doesn't work as well as my old phone I am assuming because I need to enable AWS which by the OP seemed simple enough but I can't get my computer to recognize the phone in the RNDIS+DM+MODEM mode. From what I am gathering I need flash the rom to an older version to beable to install the fix. I am totally new to android so an updated synopsis of what needs to be done to enable AWS would be helpful if that is possible. I have read through a lot of the posts but the info is a little hard to follow as it addresses many different issues. I think someone posted something about flashing the phone with T mobile firmware or something like that is that possible. Just want to phone to work well on T mobile nothing fancy. I was able to change the setting to get QPST to recognize the phone just haven't gotten the usb drivers to reconize it so I can get a com port number.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
It won't work unless you have kitkat. You will need to flash a 4.4.2 rom for it to work with your computer. I'm not sure which ones you can flash as I dont know much about safestrap with at&t

Upgrading to 5.0

Hey, I am currently on version 4.4.2 with the AWS enabled using this method using it on WIND Mobile

I am thinking of upgrading to 5.0 Lollipop. If I flash from ODIN will this AWS be disabled, and I have to do it again?

Can someone please advise.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Zehlek:
I don't know about if you flash Odin, but I can confirm that it still works if you flash a custom lollipop rom with wiping system and data
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Product F(RED):
Supposedly on Canadian S4's it sticks, but I know from experience with an AT&T S4, it doesn't. So I'm going to say you will lose it just to be safe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] yoyoo2112:
So say for example it doesn;t "stick" is it still possible to do this tweak on lollipop 5.0 Oc3?

Please advise
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Product F(RED):
Not that I'm aware of. You can try flashing a Lollipop-based custom ROM if you want instead of using ODIN since that won't touch the modem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] JDM STi:
I'm very late to the game. I have a i337m and has been running on CM rom since day 3 I got it. I changed phone and needed to sell my S4. I decided to flash it to OC4 and it is now on Stock 5.0.1 Lollipop.

Then, I realized I should enable the AWS too so that it widen the possibility to get buyer. Now, I'm stuck! On Lollipop ROM, there is no way to enable RNDIS+DM+MODEM and recognized by Windows 7. I at first thought that my USB drivers on Win 7 was messed up. And I tested it with my laptop and result is the same. I have no connectivity issue when changing to MTP or PTP mode but that's it.

Anyone has a solution?
