LTE Modem

I am running pac_hltevzw_4.4.4.RC-1_20140918-222228.zip. When I boot with a wiped install on my VZW Dev Edition. I am not getting cell service. When I go into settings LTE box is checked. No service notification opens scanning and shows Verizon wireless, T-Mobile and AT&T. Regardless of what I choose it says could not connect try again later. If I go into phone info (either with dial code or "Network" app from market ) It keeps on defaulting back to LTE/GSM auto (PRL). I can get it to work if I change it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) but it only works at 3G. Not sure whats going on.

Also I am stuck at the 4.3 bootloader because I received one of the earlier devices. So far TWRP has not released a 4.3 compatible V2.8 recovery. So I have to modify the install script on the image to get it to work. (Change HLTEVZW to HLTE) Not sure if this is relevant but thought it was worth mentioning.

Network types which work: Testing in a location where I get LTE service. Turning Radio on and off after each test.

CDMA auto (PRL) (1X Only)

CDMA only (1X Only)

GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) (1X Only)

LTE/GSM/CDMA Auto (PRL) (No data)

LTE/CDMA Auto (PRL) (3G Only)

Periodically jumped to "unknown" or LTE/GSM auto (PRL) setting

All other settings do not work.

When I was running CM11 it was set to LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) and I had LTE data.

If you have trouble getting the bootloader and/or Modem to stick, install "Triangle Away" by [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] and follow the directions to reset your counter (even if it says zero), then boot into download mode, and re-flash them with Odin and they should stick.

To verify, you can download "Phone Info - Samsung" and make sure that all 4 items say NF4 (Bootloader, Baseband, PDA and CSC).

For general discussion about NF4 - [MENTION=4125131]CravingMender9[/MENTION] started a thread HERE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
To update to NF4 from NE6 or NF1 rooted with Knox 0x0:

***NOTE THIS IS NOT GUARANTEED TO WORK AND I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE***

IF YOU ARE UPDATING FROM PRE-NF1: It has been noted by several members that you may have issues with Wifi Calling and VoLTE if you do not remove your SIM card before updating.

Download the FULL stock firmware package above directly to your device

Download and install Mobile Odin Pro (MUST BE PRO VERSION) From the google play store

Download and install Triangale Away from the google play store

Launch Mobile Odin Pro and select "Open file ..." and select the FULL stock firmware package you downloaded above

Make sure the checkboxes for "Enable EverRoot", "Inject SuperUser (SuperSU)", and "Inject Mobile Odin" are checked

Click "After Flash ..." and select Download Mode

Download the MODEM+NON-HLOS combined package and the BL package from the first post to your PC

Download and extract Odin 3.09 to your PC

Launch Odin on your PC

On your PC in Odin, click "BL" and select the BL package you downloaded above

On your PC in Odin, click "CP" and select the MODEM+NON-HLOS package you downloaded above

On your PC in Odin, make sure ONLY the "Auto-Reboot" and "Phone Bootloader Update" boxes are checked

On your phone, in Mobile Odin Pro, click "Flash Firmware" and follow the prompts

Once your device reboots into download mode (and doesn't have the progress bar), connect it to your PC using the USB cable

Once Odin 3.09 sees your device, click "Start"

Once your phone reboots you should be on NF4, rooted, stock, and Knox 0x0

Enjoy! :good: :D

EDIT: Step 3 is optional. If you download and install it, the only reason you'd need it is if the modem and/or bootloader do not stick.

EDIT2: Added instructions for the MODEM+NON-HLOS package for Odin that I accidentally left out. Oops!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
Fixed... Dunno what happened there, but it ate the one for Triangle Away too. Fixed them both, and added the URL for MOP.

:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] idtheftvictim:
In order to get the baseband to stick, you must enter download mode via the buttons after the phone is completely turned off. It is this way for the S5 also. If you flash via odin after using the os to boot into download mode the modem won't stick.

Is the link to the modem incorrect? Filename says NF1?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
No, it was the correct modem, I just named it the wrong thing. Oops. Thanks for that - fixed! ;)

Is there an change log around?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mocklee:
I used Triangle Away in conjunction with Odin and managed to get my bootloader and baseband to stick to NF4. But, for some reason I can't get the CSC or the PDA to stick.. they're still reading NF1 in the Phone Info app linked in the OP. I tried flashing stock recovery and kernel to no avail. I'm running Tweaked 3.0 on the NF1 base.

As for the Odin version I'm using, it's 3.09. I'm flashing CSC via the CSC mode, modem+NON-HLOS via the CP(Phone) mode, etc.

Thanks for posting these, by the way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dtr145r:

What is modem+nonhlos (combined) vs modem-hlose.bin??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
We have NEVER been given a changelog by T-Mo, I don't know why you expect one now...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
They are broken out for those who need them separate.

modem.bin is the actual GSM/WCDMA/LTE baseband

NON-HLOS.bin is the wifi firmware

Generally they are flashed together, which is the combined .tar.md5 file (as they work together), but I provided them separately for those who just need one or the other.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rolling56:
Thank you for the files which i gladly slapped the thanks button.

One question....why can't we update to F4 just like i did to F1 using Mobile Odin Pro for full firmware and Desktop Odin for BL and CSC files?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
If you read the post, that's exactly what you're doing here. The CSC is only needed if you run into issues, as it's flashed with the full firmware. The reason I put the modem flash in the desktop odin part is just to help attempt to stick it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
Here's the huge change log: Turns on VoLTE, and Network Improvements.

4.2.2

/ Baseband N900TUVUDNF4." So are we going backwards? LOL
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
LOL... I never considered that info a changelog. I guess I come from more of a development mindset where changelogs are based on actual code changes and what they do vs what you see there.

Either way, thanks, and I'll add this to the OP.

What benefits will we be getting upgrading from NF1 to NF4?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] siraltus:
For one, it should solve not receiving texts and phone calls on WiFi Calling - I had a master trouble ticket open with T-Mobile engineering over this and they told me they fixed it both on their servers and in the NF4 firmware.

Two big ones for me are the Fake ID is patched, and VoLTE. I've noticed calls are a lot clearer. Very good quality. Also they added a locations quick button toggle when you pull the notification bar down, and some new smoother animations.

I was wondering if I can upgrade to the NF4 from NF1 without reinstalling the whole rom? I don't want to have to reinstall all of my apps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
I took the full image, and flashed it through ODIN, and it worked perfect. Flashed right over the old one. No apps, settings, or anything else was lost. You will lose root, so you'll need to root, and install a custom recovery again, but if you stay stock all you have to do is flash it.

I tryed to flash nf4 baseband only with odin mobile the system protected exiting out??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] guaneet:
i just flashed mine. make sure to "phone bootloader update" in odin. ins a little under the first column of things that can be ticked. i just odin'ed the modem and BL just fine. also make sure to use triangle away first. you can find that in the google play store or simply googling "triangle away xda" and get the apk from the thread

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] siraltus:
VoLTE has been enabled since NE6.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
While NE6 did enable volte, it was only for certain markets and has had issues (such as volte tower handoff and 2g handoff - ran into these in particular in Chicago). I'm thinking maybe these have been resolved in nf4 now that they've had it out in test markets for a few months. Haven't been able to test the handoff issues because of the great coverage here in Huntsville AL, but perhaps it's fixed.

Another issue was nf1 (a volte update to ne6) could sometimes fail to allow calls at all on 2g when volte handoff to 2g failed while in a call. I'm hoping this is also fixed.

Just out of curiosity i wonder i we could go back to nf1 after updating to nf4?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rolling56:
I say yes but you try and let use know. ....unless you want to keep root then i say maybe. Depends on how you do it.

Well...imma give it a shot shortly! ?

if i did need to, would this trigger knox i was able to go from nf1 back to ne6 will this be the same for this new rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rolling56:
I doubt it would trigger Knox but i dunno if it would keep root.....depends on how you do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] nightmare reaper:
ok thanks haven't noticed a difference yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] NMonster69:
That's all it took, thanks. Fought with this over and over.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mardukeme:
Yes you could first time I flashed nf4, using Mobile Odin my Wi-Fi calling broke. So I flashed back to ne6, and Towel rooted. Then flashed nf1, and then flashed to nf4. Knox didn't trip, just when using Mobile Odin to flash to nf1, or nf4 firmware remove your Sim card before hand to prevent Wi-Fi calling from breaking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chipworkz:
I successfully upgraded to NF4 without tripping Knox while retaining root and was hopeful that removing the SIM would fix the Wi-Fi calling issue getting stuck on Enabling. I had the SIM removed throughout the entire process. Wi-Fi still got stuck on Enabling so for me, removing the SIM had no effect. I had to do a factory reset to get it working again just like before. I normally do a factory reset anytime I install new firmware anyway since I have seen it prevent a lot of issue in my time on Android. It isn't always necessary but I have had good luck with this method.

Also to note, I did have to install the CSC file at the end as I did when I upgraded to NF1 from NE6 as many people have had to do. Phone Info showed my CSC was missing but after installing the CSC file, everything was good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rolling56:
I could be wrong but i think you have to take out the SIM card going from E6-F4 or from E6-F1-F4 and not from F1-F4 if you did not take it out from E6 for it to hold the WiFi Calling.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lmarranzino:
Is the bootloader on F4 backwards compatible (meaning can you flash older ROMS on it) ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kingfisher1111:
Guys,

Is this the same procedure from MI7 to NF4 wiht out loosing data? I am on Factory rooted with MI7 using AT&T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CravingMender9:
It is backward compatible with older Kitkat firmware versions. I downgraded to firmware NE6 (bootloader NF4) to re-root with Towelroot, without any issues.

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

One addition: If you are coming from Pre-NF1, then please take the SIM card out before upgrading. This way, you can use WiFi calling/VoLTE without problems without doing a factory reset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] baudac:
Has anyone encounter any issues going straight to NF4 from stock NB4 w/ knox 0x1 tripped?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rolling56:
Did you ever factory reset your N3 in your process?..might save me a step ;) You had a busy day :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
If knox is tripped already there's no need in following the steps outlined; just part down the device for 15 to 30 seconds, and flash the full firmware using desktop odin and reroot using CF-Auto-Root.

The only issue I've heard of is one post above yours, where they discuss removing the sim card first to keep wifi calling from breaking.

Hi toastido how do you set up Desktop Odin for that?... if i can bother you a second.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
Download odin (i use 3.09), then download the full firmware package from the first post. Launch odin, check the bootloader update box and leave the other settings alone, and load the full firmware into the ap slot.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] imaleecher:
Just followed the guide and phone is up and running NF4 but it was not 100% straightforward.

It booted and the stock launcher kept failing. Had to do a restart and was able to get back in the phone.

Following that, I noticed root was lost BUT I opened up SuperSU and it detected a new binary was needed and a restart. Now all is well... for now.

*note, I did not wipe the phone prior to the update due to laziness.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CravingMender9:
It is highly recommended. But no. I did not do factory reset.

But upgrade with SIM removed to not break WiFi calling.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Androidnewuser1:
just to let everyone know I've noticed an improved signal quality since installing this ROM

This was definitely not the case earlier. The best part? AT&T didn't have network ;) FINALLY!!! I got to say "HA! This time it is YOUR network that su***!" LOL
