Flashing different region Rom - Nokia Lumia 920

Hello,
Currently I have an imported unlocked phone from France 1232.2109.1242.1001 and I was wondering if there is any downside to flashing a different region rom from 1232.5951.1249.100*.
Do they allow english and support the sim unlock?
I live in Australia and I'm on Telstra, but I really don't mind losing the 4G capability for an updated rom. Since 4G isn't really supported everywhere and is a battery killer. My phone is a rm-821 model
Should I just bite the bullet and flash stock AUS rom and wait? Or will the new roms work?
Thanks

I personally flashed the latest unbranded AUS ROM over my 920 and Im going to stick with that ROM gets updated on Navifirm or released OTA.
The only ROM's available with the latest update seems to be some North African carriers, Belgium, O2 (Europe) and Orange (Europe) plus the American model RM-820 which wont work on our handsets. I would wait if I were you. Im not sure if there will be any problems with selecting a different carrier unless it stops certain frequencies from working that Telstra require.. eg. 850MHz for 3G/H+ and 1800MHz for LTE/4G. I doubt that would be an issue though.
If you do flash a new one, can you keep us updated on how well the ROM works?

[Q] Update to Lumia 800 come from Germany or Portugal?

I have a problem regarding the update of my lumia 800. I bought via ebay a lumia 800 from germany but know i am using it in portugal with vodafone. The phone i think is unlocked but is branded to vodafone germany as the product code is the one from germany as it i can see in the nokia webpage support. There i can see that there is an update available for my device "059L701" but via zune its just says that my device as already the latest firmware. Currently i have the 12070 firmware and i don´t know why it won´t update. Can it be because i am using vodafone portugal as carrier and not vodafone germany? And how do i know if the phone is factory unlocked or was unlocked by some sort of firmware?
I have an unlocked United Kingdom Variant phone I am using in the USA on T-Mobile, so similar issue.
Try the disconnect trick on Zune, but make sure both your Cell data and Wifi are both turned OFF, or it won't work.
why you dont flash with NSS
i´m portuguese to and i dont receive update to
but i´m download FW from United Kingdom Variant TANGO
and its work very well

[Q] 7.8 on RM-819 (Cyan Telus Model)

Hey guys, just wondering if I'm SOL.
I was going to wait for the official update, but I noticed last night that I have over 8GB used by "Other" and thought it might be a good time to factory reset my phone. If I'm going to do that, I might as well install 7.8 right?
So I started looking into installing 7.8 and noticed that there are no Telus/Canada versions of 1750.823.8858.12460 in Navifirm. Is there another version I can use without bricking my phone?

You should be able to use any version on your phone including RM-801 variants. I have the Telus model and I have experimented in the past with other firmwares. Keep in mind that if your phone has been unlocked it will re-lock after flashing a new firmware, so make sure you have the code.
Are the radios effected in doing this though?

RM-801 are 900mhz and RM-819 are 850mhz. This is based upon the hardware not software, so if your phone is RM-819 and you put 801 firmware on it it will still be 850mhz.
I have a Nokia Lumia 800 Black Telus, I have been using it unlocked in the states. Anyway, I flashed the RM 801 APAC black version and it kept my phone unlocked. I have been using it for a couple weeks no problem.

Ok cool, I'm still more used to Android where you can mess with the radios and connectivity a bit.

Found dev rom in navifirm for RM 821

Hi all,
a Developer rom is available in navifirm right now

Hi Ellokomen.
Probably a stupid question, but what are the advantages of a developer ROM?
The Developer ROM has been there since at least November (as that's when I downloaded it)...
I don't know how significant it is, but there was never a Portico version of the Developer ROM before they were all pulled so it doesn't appear it's first on the list for updates if that is what you were thinking.

The portico version of the developer ROM is now available (see 1232.5951.1249.1002 - RM-821 VAR EURO1 Developer Device).
But again: what would be the advantage of flashing that to my phone?!?
Can the Developer rom side load apps?

I think it would help to remove the internet sharing block on AT&T and rogers phones.
Has anyone tried to flash this RM-821 ROM onto a RM-820 device? I know that technically they are different phones but you could flash the RM-819 (Lumia 800) onto a RM-801 without issue aside from perhaps a missing 3G band. But the 820/821 have exactly the same 3G bands just different LTE (which I don't care about) so it shouldn't be an issue right?

That's odd because when I tried to flash the RM-820 ATT Firmware to my international RM-821 Lumia Nokia Care Suite said that it's for a different model (or sthg like that) and then aborted the flashing process. This left my phone "soft bricked" - meaning that I had to re-flash it with a RM-821 ROM to get it working again.
I wonder if this Dev ROM might actually be a RM-820 ROM that is only (by mistake) labeled as RM-821?????
Has anyone tried to flash it to a RM-821 international model yet? Because from what I know the only Dev phones were RM-820 models and that always left me wondering why there is a Dev ROM for RM-821 but non for RM-820 when on the other hand there are only RM-820 Dev phones but no RM-821 dev phones.

It's not mistakenly mislabeled b/c nokia care suite now identifies my att lumia as a RM-821 (originally RM-820) and now in extras+info the manufacturer model name is RM-821_eu_euro1_425 so it's obviously designed as a european rom.

Well this makes me wonder whether RM-820 and RM-821 might actually be the exact same phone hardware wise with only some (artificial) lock preventing cross-flashing between those variants ...
Would be interesting whether you could flash other non-developer RM-821 ROMs to your RM-820 now and also if you could still flash it back to an RM-820 AT&T or Rogers ROM.

It shows the product code for the RM-821 dev rom and identifies it as RM-821.
edit: looked at the wrong place for the product code. It still has the original ATT product code but NCS still identifies it as an rm-821
I just tried to flash my att Lumia several times but just get the phone bricked and flashed back to att rom
Sent from my RM-820_nam_att_100 using Board Express
Oddly the update menu entry is grayed out for me too but you can download a later version here:
http://www.seidea.com/2013/01/03/nokia-care-suite-pst-5-0-2012-51-4-4/
(don't forget to uninstall the old version before installing the new one!)
What @patrick92260 said about his phone now being identified as RM-821 and even with the Developer phone's product code makes it seem like he did not only flash the phone to a different ROM (with keeping the phone's original identity [model, product code] intact) but he also somehow managed to overwrite the part that holds those "phone identity information" with the ones of the Dev phone.
Maybe this has sthg to do with the version of NCS being used:
-the old version just flashed the ROM but didn't touch the "phone identity information", it allowed to flash to a different product code but refused to flash to a different model (RM-821/RM-820) and even after flashing to a different product code the phone still had it's original product code
-now the new version on the other hand might not only flash the ROM but might also overwrite the "phone identity information" with the ones of the ROM you are flashing and is thereby effectively changing the phones "identity" (model, product code) to the one of the ROM you're flashing.
This is just a theory of mine but when summing up the facts that:
-a few weeks ago I was unable to flash my RM-821 to an AT&T Portico ROM and now @alfaro58 tried it the other way round (flashing his RM-820 with an RM-821 ROM) and we both ended up "soft bricking" our phones and had to re-flash them with the "correct" model's firmware to un-brick them
-a few months ago sb tried to unbrand his Roges RM-820 by flashing an RM-821 ROM and he also ended up soft-bricking it and then had to wait for a few days until a RM-820 ROM became available on Navifirm before he could unbrick his phone by flashing one of those
[email protected] now basically did the same thing that other guy did a a few months ago (flashing an RM-820 with an RM-821 ROM) but instead of soft-bricking his phone it seems that he even managed to not only flash it with an RM-821 ROM but to actually make it an RM-821 phone.
All these facts kinda lead me to that assumption that it might have sthg to do with that new Nokia Care Suite version that was released earlier this month.
If I still had that buggy pre-Portico ROM on my Lumia I wouldn't hesitate trying to flash my RM-821 to a Rogers or AT&T ROM (because those seem to be first in line when it comes to updates - or at least they were this time) but with my phone now working perfectly with that RM-821 Entel ROM and me having several exams during the next few days I'm really not going to wipe my perfectly working phone just to prove this theory right or wrong - I hope you understand that.
@patrick92260 Which version of Nokia Care Suite did you use?
@alfaro58 Maybe you want to install the new NCS version and then try to flash your phone with the RM-821 firmware again using that updated NCS version?

[Q] How can I get AWS bands back on a bricked Rogers Lumia 920?

Hello everybody,
My Rogers Lumia 920 (unlocked and pentaband beforehand) was bricked mysteriously overnight and I came across the instructions to unbrick the phone. In my NaviFirm search, I noticed that the Rogers ROMs (releases 1232.2109.1242.1002 i believe) for the RM-820 have disappeared as there are many screenshots of them which were posted a few weeks ago. As a last resort, I flashed the AT&T ROM onto my 920 and I have lost the ability to use my phone on Wind mobile and all other AWS networks. Does anybody by chance have an already downloaded Rogers ROM they could share with me? Are there any other roms for the 920 that don't have the AWS bands disabled?
Thanks in advanced!

I just posted links to the Rogers firmware at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36686433&postcount=8 .
However, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there are reports of the AT&T firmware fully disabling the AWS bands, even if you re-flash the Rogers ROM afterwards. Maybe the posts I've seen are wrong, so by all means give it a try and please let us know the result. :fingers-crossed:
Good Luck!
Wow, thank you so much!!! I'll try it and let you know how it goes.
You have just made my week
Edit: Yeah, the band is still disabled on the Rogers ROM. CURSE YOU AT&T!
Does anybody know how to do a total clearing and re installation of the Rogers ROM then? A bit of a stretch, but hoping this phone won't have to meet Craigslist or something, I love everything about it minus the fact it doesn't work on my network.
Thanks again!

After reflashing the rogers rom did you do a factory reset? I really doubt that flashing an at&t rom permanently disables the aws band even after the original rogers rom has been flashed again. That would mean the at&t rom changes a very secure low level area of the phone and it just doesn't seem that likely or anything I've heard of happening before...

Yeah that's what I meant for a reset. The only other way I can even think of getting the AWS back is possibly finding a dialer code that would let you select radio bands. I want to figure this out too b/c I have a sim unlocked at&t lumia that I want to flash the rogers rom to so I can get the AWS band.

I really have no idea then... But I'm 99% sure after flashing dozens of phones from different companies that the AWS band is not permanently disabled. We just need to find a way to get it back on. Problem is it's probably going to take someone with more technical skills about windows phone 8 (probably searching thru the root directory) to re-enable it.
someone would need to post the baseband of the rogers model and then you can flash the baseband and get your aws band back.
I read somewhere that all the lumias 920 are the same on hardware side, that they only have different softwares and firmware on the inside; rumor has it that if you could get the firmware and baseband that nokia flashes into the dev phones, you could convert any lumia 920 into a dev phone with anything unlocked.

If flashing the att rom to a rogers phone installs the att baseband (which disables AWS) then reflashing the original rogers rom would overwrite the att baseband with the original rogers baseband (should re-enable AWS) so I don't think that is the issue.

The AT&T baseband seems to stick though, maybe the AT&T rom has another file that has no equivalent in the rogers ROM that's sole purpose it to lock out the AWS band. Hopefully we can get this fixed soon, I'd love to love the Lumia 920, but at this rate, my eyes are starting to turn to the 8x.

I don't think the rogers firmware includes the rogers baseband, as the baseband is the one that controls the radios and frequencies of the handset.
One can install a firmware without a baseband and viceversa

The baseband for my stock at&t 920 with the portico ota is 1.0.202075.3. Someone who has a stock rogers 920 that didn't flash the att rom what is your baseband version? (about - more info) Then we need to compare and see what the baseband is on a rogers phone that has lost the AWS band.

I just updated my phone to portico and it seems that I've got the same baseband as you. Can anybody with a stock Rogers ROM post their baseband? After updating, my phone popped up with a new message when I put in my wind sim. It said "Phone mode changes. Your phone is now in GSM mode." I have no idea if you can change modes or anything like that.
Hey guys, I just wanted to jump in here and say that I'm having the same issues. I have a BUILD Dev phone that was bricked -> flashed AT&T -> flashed Rogers and the AWS band is disabled / vanished.
I've contacted Nokia Experts and was told the only option at the moment was to get me a new phone... and I've been waiting for months, lol. I'm thinking that they're going to send me a standard unlocked L920 without AWS bands but that's a bridge I'll cross when or if I get there... I was also told that the repair center did not have the ability to fix this problem and when I asked for the original firmware I was told they (Nokia Experts) did not have it.
Someone HAS to know what's going on here and how to fix it!
If anyone finds a way to get the AWS band back I'm willing to PayPal them $100. Maybe those with more skill will help if we offer financial incentive?
I'm in the US on T-Mobile for reference.
What we need to figure out first is what the baseband is on a stock rogers 920 that has never had the att firmware flashed on it. If it is different then it looks like you'll have to wait this out until nokia comes out with new firmware that has an upgraded baseband and hopefully that brings back the AWS
What about the base band from a Dev device like mine? If the Rogers would work as a reference point then I'd imagine the Dev base band would work too.
There are several users here with them. I can't provide mine because It's been flashed as I mentioned, but I'm currently running 1.0.202075.3 as well as others in this thread.

Is there a way to port TouchXPlorer to WP8? I think it has access to the system directory on WP7 but I've never actually used it before. That might help us extract the correct baseband.

LG v10 korean version-flash or not

Hi to all!
This is my first post here.
Couple days ago i purchased LG v10 (F600L) with 64GB of ROM! This is korean model from network U+.
I live in Croatia so I can't use some features from phone, and it's not the major problem.
I wonder if is possible to flash phone with H960 firmware? Via LGUP app from my PC? Is it problem because my phone has no unlocked bootloader and in some posts on the internet I readed I can brick up my phone.
4G does not work either. Probably only korean version of LTE, not supported in Croatia.
So, if I do firmware upgrade via LGUP, with euro-version, will I get phone with only 32GB, will LTE bands be opened to euro-networks?
I didn't say that I can't upgrade my korean version to Android 6.0, via OTA or LG Bridge. It says Cannot check the latest firmware.
So, guys, to do it or stay out of any attempting?
Thanks and regards from Dubrovnik!
Is it true that noone knows?
Cannot, ne mozes! Just try to read a little more about it.
If you click the link you can see there is support for 4G in Croatia.

I can see Croatian operators can offer me LTE 1800mHz only.
So, in suburbs of croatian big cities I have LTE, but only in streets, outside places etc. Whei I enter in some bar or restaurant, LTE wanishes.
I'm on VIPnet Croatia which provides LTE 800/1800. It seems my Korean V10 works only on 1800.
Too bad. Cause, it's good phone. I upgraded recently to Android 6.0 (MM) via link on this forum and it works even better than on 5.1.
On posts on this forum(s) I can see that my device cannot be flashed with another firmware. I've downloaded Turkish version (64GB) but LG UP says Error. It seems I have to root my device, but even than, it's not for sure that all LTE bands will working.
Koreans made the mess by locking with brandings their devices.
@moby77: for what I know, you can't flash a different firmware... a brick is nearly assured.
But you can try this code: 5457#*600# then go to Multi Band Selection and check LTE bands that are available in your Country.
Don't know if that procedure works in your device, but it well worth a try!

I am not sure but most probably flashing wrong firmware will brick the phone. However, one thing I am sure is just flashing the firmware on different version never unlocks the bands of 3G/LTE. These bands cannot be unlocked this way. If F600L does not support a particular band in your country, it will not run LTE no matter what firmware you flash.
F600L is very well locked by Koreans so I san't do anything except flashing new kind of firmware, but one provided from U+ network.
One day I got mad, so I used LG UP, downloaded firmware for Turkish H960, and pressed Start button (it really was pissed off so even I bricked phone, my fault. Totaly insane, but...). After 4% od doing "something" it said Error, cannot flash firmware! (or something like this).
Official os
you have H901-10c official os bcz when i upgred using LGUP my phone is not starting as well as not showing charging sign when i am connect my charger
