[Galaxy Tab General] mywingtophone:
I just installed the modem you gave me and there's only one thing i can say to you .... your Fu#$%^4g awesome!!! It works, now i have 3g and voice at the same time!!!!!

THANKS!!
[Galaxy Tab General] mrsexkey:
Link to modem file and how to install? Can I just use this to pull down 4g data? That us more important to me than voice
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
Anytime

[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
Hey i just PM'd you about the modem file, i cant find it anywhere. i've been searching for 2 hours now lol.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Interesting.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
11:51PM

01:19AM

So let me guess, you walked into the T-Mobile store at midnight and got new service?
[Galaxy Tab General] olegmamaev:
What is it, Roto? I'm all anxious to run ahead and updfrade a modem file to get voice on my tmobile tab! Is there anything we should know?
[Galaxy Tab General] djdysfunktion:
I'm assuming the tab needs to be rooted to install a new modem? I don't have one yet but I'm planning on picking one up in a week or two and this really made me excited about it.
[Galaxy Tab General] olegmamaev:
Ok, and what is the procedure for installing a new modem file? Flash with Odin or just cut and paste a new onw with root explorer?
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Theres no modem file.
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
Also the I5500 stats are here

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i5500_corby_smartphone-3371.php

The 3G freq on this device are 900/2100 as well, most def not compatible with T-Mo 3G...even if there were a modem file
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
No simultaneous voice and data is a bit suspicious to me. Although I've never tried, it would be quite simple to change the E to an H in the framework as I assume it's a PNG?

[Galaxy Tab General] olegmamaev:
Ok, so I am all confused now... is there a solution permitting to enable a voice function on tmobile tab, besides flashing with european firmware?
[Galaxy Tab General] jay_jay_n:
I'm confused so is this fake can anybody else confirm this?
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
No, you must flash the European firmware.
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
3g

sorry roto just trying to help the others who dont have 3g as yet to get. i know i do and enjoying it and i do surf and talk at the same time.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
It would be more convincing if it was done that way :)
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Keep up the good work helping others!
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
roto are you getting 3g on your tmobile tab? sorry with voice
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
confirm

ok can anyone i sent the modem to confirm its working please.
[Galaxy Tab General] olegmamaev:
regular voice or voice via some sort of software? You are confusing people, bull.
[Galaxy Tab General] Shane_pcs:
Are you using the voice on a webconnect provisioned sim or is it a regular voice plus android data sim? Why not post the modem file here?
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
I tried I can't thats why I ask if anyone I sent it to can upload it so everyone can trying. I don't see what the problem is you try the modem or u dont and stop *****ing.

I post photo a video and still I'm getting all this carp I should have just done like roto get my 3g with voice working and say nothing to anyone.

SGH-T849
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
If you want to be like me, share the source of your modem if you can't upload it, not a video and some screenshots of your "proof".
[Galaxy Tab General] lasvegasx:

[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
ok so thanks for the modem.bin file bull, it flashed and no problem, but, i cant seem to get any icon next to my signal bars, they are full signal, i just get not E, 3G, or H next to it. Any instuctions on what you did? what type of sim are you using?
[Galaxy Tab General] lasvegasx:
sorry i kept saying

waiting for xda forum to approved it.:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

This thread just keeps getting better
[Galaxy Tab General] mywingtophone:
I dont need that lame modem switcher apps anymore! Life is good!
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
How did you guys flash this? I got the tmobile usa tab, flashed the eurp firmware and the modem.bin file that bull sent me. But no 3g or network connection at all. I have both the tab sim card, and a G2 sim card
[Galaxy Tab General] bulldebeerman:
In stead of *****ing roto just try the file

My brother gave it to me from his phone I can only email the file I can get it post for the 20th time

[Galaxy Tab General] clubtech:
Ever heard about multiupload.com or any file sharing site???

What do you mean "I can't post it"......
[Galaxy Tab General] swordsaint_ss:
Check the 2nd post of this thread. I attached the modem file that Bulldebeerman emailed me to that post. Good luck
[Galaxy Tab General] slimatic:
Ok Bull, can you email it to me please? thanks. I will try it out and if it works I will post a link. What's all the confusion anyway?

Roto, can you please break it down for us simple minded folks?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] mywingtophone:
Dont talk to roto like that he is the MAN at least he think he is .
[Galaxy Tab General] mywingtophone:
Ok here's the modem file for those who want to test it. This is the file bull emailed me.

http://www.multiupload.com/OIUPDNMYHH
[Galaxy Tab General] lasvegasx:
1) Put the Tab into download mode and flash the attached modem.bin file (the one you extracted) by selecting the bin file under "phone" in Odin. NO repartition and NO PIT file.

2) At this point your phone will reboot and you should have 850/1900Mhz enabled and everything you should work just like the euro version of the Tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
but isn't the Tmo 3G, 1700/2100 mhz? And this is just flashing the modem.bin with the stock Tmobile firmware correct?
[Galaxy Tab General] Havoc1127:
Hey because of that switcher you got both voice and 3g. Calling it lame is a bit harsh.

Without it you wouldnt have have that option.

That was someones work that didnt have to be shared in the xda community.
[Galaxy Tab General] slimatic:
I am on the stock tmo rom now - newly rooted tab. what do i need to do before i get to this stage. Can someone walk me through the pit files i need to use etc.

i bought a tab earlier and got the phone working with edge but returned it. this is a new tab - i need a refresher. thanks
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
ok i've tried flashing the Modem.bin file you sent me with the euro firmware and with the Tmobile stock firmware, and i get service but no 3G, EDGE, or H. How exactly is this done?
[Galaxy Tab General] swordsaint_ss:
i believe this is to be done only with the Euro Firmware. Tmobile 3G works fine on Tmobile Stock Firmware. This file is to allow us to get 3G data access on Tmobile with EURO firmware (voice capabilities). Previously, we only had EDGE service with the voice.
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
yea i did it one the Euro firmware, and now i'm getting EDGE but nothing else.
[Galaxy Tab General] gtabhoe:
What do I use to open the155000 bin modem? I have the gscript to switch modems but it has to b n (sh) format. I think I missed a set. I rooted the tab, backed up the Rom, downloaded the modem and my dailer is still not supported. What next? Oh I'm on the t mobile tab
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
Dialer support on the tmo tab only comes from flashing euro firmware like jm6 jma. the modem has nothing to do with this
[Galaxy Tab General] slimatic:
Ok so I just flashed the T959UVJL4 firmware on my TMO tab. I flashed the modem file. still get Edge only with calls. On Edge it keeps sending me to the t-mobile page. How can I fix that? Is there something else I am missing? A Home switcher I heard?
[Galaxy Tab General] scottprotege:
from what i know on tmo service the only way to avoid the redirect on a non webconnect rate plan is to clear your /efs folder. if you do that though use root explorer to zip the folder and double back it up first
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
You guys are so irritating with this question. Do you use the search button? its been asked a million times and there's a freaking how-to on the dev forum. What more do u want??? STAY ON TOPIC!! I swear to God if i was a mod i would delete ALL your repetitive and pointless posts.

I tried this modem.bin by using rotos modem switcher. I switched name of it to match the one roto provided but it does NOT work. Don't wasted your time. This Guy is bullshitting.

someone should ban this dude here for doing this.:mad:

that's what i get for trying to help don't worry you wont have to ban me.

[Galaxy Tab General] android-rules:
redeem yourself Bull please show us how you did it, i still have faith in you.
[Galaxy Tab General] jarez:
First of all, you can't do phone calls and use the internet at the same time. Anyone who has a phone since 2002 should know that. Second, i can confirm that it does not work.

BTW, You can very easily change the internet EDGE icon to 3G by renaming it and repacking taskbar/icons file.

I haven't seen the video. But if you can do an settings---> about phone--->status showing 3g and long press home preemptively having phone dailer open call your voice mail.
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
Jarez sorry to correct you, but you can do phone calls and internet at the same time, thats one of the features of the iphone, and ive been doing it with ever android phone ive ever owned on tmobile.

Just sayin. . .
[Galaxy Tab General] jarez:
You can use wifi and phone. Anyhow, after seeing the video data arrows don't move. I suspect that the Wifi icon replaced with H icon in framework.

Just use roto's dd script backup rename the original just as backup and rename the euro Rom that is provided as the euro 3g/voice here in comment 2. Do a *#2263#, set to gsm all band, and see the lies unfold, lol. Delete the fake spoof and rename the original to get back to get back real UTMS/HSDPA. And thank roto for doing a kick ass job.
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
i tried this again using heimdall and of course it didnt work but i could of sworn i heard ONE ring before it hung up. thats the issue here. i do get HSPA but ultimately the phone part of it doesnt work. at first, i wasnt getting any signal but doing it this method got me only 4G but like i said, i swear i heard ONE quick ring before it hung up. idk if that even means anything.
[Galaxy Tab General] jay_jay_n:
ok well i think i can clarify some things , since i got a msg from bull the other day regarding a question i had from a old post about what happened to his tab on tmobile being blocked, well he replied and said he has changed is IMEI, so from that assumption this modem will allow you to get 3g on tmobile tab with euro rom as long as ur imei is changed.

and this is my assumption.

if this is the case thx bull, now i just need to decide to change my imei or not.
[Galaxy Tab General] wawoox:
.....no need to make bad assumption ..I think we are getting something here, just be patient guys...
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
I personally wouldn't change my IMEI. Its has nothing to do with getting 3G.
[Galaxy Tab General] jtc442:
To add my .02. As far as using phone and internet. You can use the phone while surfing the net at the same time as long as you are in 3g. But, if your phone is running on edge, internet is a no go.

Sent from Jt's Samsung Galaxy Tab!!
[Galaxy Tab General] jay_jay_n:
yeah i feel the same im more worried about what the carriers will do to the accounts that have the same imei's, but in this case the imei does effect t-mobile tabs to get 3g since they need the proper modem to be able to use the tmobile bands on a euro tab as well as a workaround to the imei block.. so yeah imei isn't really effecting the ability to get 3g but it does effect the usage of it on tmobile. just trying to clarify what i meant.
[Galaxy Tab General] Shane_pcs:
nm. Jay already clarified.
[Galaxy Tab General] turruso:
What plan did you signed up for? I am currently on the $40 internet + texts, does anyone had any luck getting a helpful Tmo salespeople changing their plan
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
as roto said, it IMEI has nothing to do with getting 3G. can we just close this thread? if roto said its not working then theres nothing to argue about.

i see u clarified it.

[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
only one t in hater. nice video.
[Galaxy Tab General] TurckBoatTruck:
So let me get this straight... you make a post claiming: "ok guys i don't know if im the first but i got 3g and H with voice on the t-mobile tab i use the modem out of the Samsung I5500 lol woohoo."

We all see that and think, well, despite his basic grasp of grammar and proper spelling... maybe he has done it.

And so we go about asking you how you did it... and continue to ask you how you did it. Yet you ignore these requests for some unexplained reason or you give unclear responses.

Then someone else posts a modem.bin that you sent them (oddly you can't figure out how to post a file to the forum) -- several people flash with it and it doesn't work. So we go back to asking you how you did it... and you continue to ignore.

Then you post a video that you think proves your mad "skillz"... throwing mud in the process towards Roto -- someone who is everything you are not on this forum (i.e., someone who has earned his cred repeatedly).

Yet, AGAIN, you don't say how you are doing it... and worse, you have the balls to get mad at us for not believing you?!?

This isn't some car show where you pull up in your ride and everyone just drools all over you -- we are all here to learn and share and show. Yet you seem to have missed the learning and sharing part.

So please pardon us for calling bull**** on you, but until you can back-up your bull**** with something real -- with something others can repeat and replicate -- then you are just that: Bull****.

Bull**** from Brooklyn.

So, Bull**** from Brooklyn, put up or shut up.

Ah people mad at me and i don't know why.

I gave out the modem for everyone to share and to test in your tabs,

some people test some just wont but talk crap about it.

Again I didn't do anything special im on

change imei

tmobile android unlimited data and voice thats it.

Oh and I'm sorry about the bad grammar and spelling TurckBoatTruck.

My inbox is full so Im sorry if anyone here pm me and I didn't get back to you

I cant get to everyone its to much.

The modem is up here just download it and try it I guess from what some people are saying it's not working in some tabs.

But despite popular belief Im still working on getting other modems for people to try.

good night and god bless. :-(
[Galaxy Tab General] happybabyhippo:
Dude, I think you missed the whole point of being in this forum. You are on this forum for two things (whether you know it or not) to gain from others' experience or to share what you know with the community. Showing other people how to do it via PM certainly goes against the whole premise of being in this forum. If you do have something to share, don't keep it, if everyone here thought as you did then XDA-Dev wouldn't even exist.

bulldebeer: it goes without saying that people were harsh in judging you, but you do know the implications of posting a fake find right? One reason a lot of us are here is to be able to maximize the potential of our devices with each other's help because we sometimes feel that the companies who sold us these devices have left us in the dark after taking our money. So if you did have something to share, share it the proper way. If you don't know how to share the proper way, check out other people's posts when they share ROMs. Post clear instructions on how what steps you took to reach your goal so others may follow. If others are able to follow what you did, then people will respect you here.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
So now that you got 3g with your neighbors SIM, are you going to switch carriers or keep using the modem switcher?

But then again, what service are you using? If you used the modem switcher then youre on Tmobile, but then why did you need to test with your neighbors SIM at midnight for?
[Galaxy Tab General] mywingtophone:
I was thinking of testing your famed "modem switcher" till i found this thread that doesnt mean i've used it.

Do you have any issue asking your bestfriend which is your next door neighbor to test his sim card? Well I DONT!

Have u smelled a tobaco smoker lately?
[Galaxy Tab General] jtc442:
mywingtophone

mywingtophone: You know, im sure this thread will be locked/closed soon, so what the heck.

Im not really sure what a tobaco is? I tried looking it up, but didnt find anything on it?

You have been ragging on Roto throughout this entire thread? Why is that? Has he done something to piss you off? Or, are you just pissed because he hasnt solved the whole Galaxy Tab mystery? My God man, chill the F out! Roto has helped many of us with this tab, in many different ways. Maybe not you, but that is your fault, and its probably because of your attitude. If your tab is working with voice and 3g, great!! You are one of the select few. But jeez, to put in your posts, Dont trust a guy smoking a tobaco, or Have u smelled a tobaco smoker lately? Get a life. I wish there was a way for people like Roto to block people like you from seeing/downloading/using their work. Its guys/girls like you that are slowing the progress of the tab down. People like you are keeping the modders and developers of other devices from coming over and lending a hand. Why would they want to try to help out if all they are going to get are insults? Just grow up and move on!

Oh yeah, the correct spelling is, tobacco!
[Galaxy Tab General] Droidz:
I been following this thread since day one i even got the modem.bin file from bull. I think that bull was trying to help by posting this up but maybe his lack of forum experience or his excitement to show us what he got made him post before giving us instructions, on the other hand insulting roto and whining instead of just posting exactly what he did after i and others repeatedly asked for instructions was immature. So that being said i hope things can get worked out, if not we will find another way to get voice and 3G on the tmo tab. Thanks for the effort at least.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
I'm starting to get the feeling you're right. ie: "Never attribute to malice..." if you know what I mean.

The modem posted is from a Vibrant, not a i5500 and then there was the dorky comment about the modem switcher, so that lead me to believe this was a hoax.

But, not everyone shares my level of articulation, so that throws us a curve ball as well. Bull and mywing share a common spelling/grammar/communication pattern that indicates we may have to give them some more slack.

If there ever was a modem that I was betting on to work, it would have been a Vibrant modem. I don't have the same SIM that Bull has, so theres no way I can test with his exact setup. But, using that modem, I get zero bars of WCDMA, and the SIM wont register to the carrier, but in the diagnostic menus it indicates an H connection to 6 points.

That could just mean something simple, like the problem is a SIM authentication problem, and Bull just happens to have an authorized SIM and the Vibrant modem is the correct one. Theres no way for him to convey that to us.

So, anyone with the free time to test should give it a go, especially if you have a similar T-Mobile phone/net SIM.
[Galaxy Tab General] SteveSlimer:
They just consolidated all the vibrant modems into one thread. If people are daring and want to try them out on your tab, you can find them here:

Good find! I'm trying the JL5 modem now.
[Galaxy Tab General] n1tro:
Roto,

Do you think using a turbosim or something similar would bypass the problem of the sim not being able to be registered onto the network? I tried the modem file posted and can see my carrier listed but it won't register.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Possibly, as Bull mentioned he changed his IMEI as well.
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:
guess ill try some too
[Galaxy Tab General] n1tro:
I'll hack up my sim card later tonight and use it with a turbo sim type card and post the results. Would the IMEI not have changed when the tab was flashed to the euro firmware or when I had to manually unlock it? If not, I will try that after the turbosim test.
[Galaxy Tab General] ayman07:

-no go.

-edge + phone.
