D3 in Italy

So in five days I am going to italy for spring break. And I have no idea what fixes I need for gsm and what roms work for gsm. So with that being said could some one point me toward necessary files for gsm
Thanks in advanced.

So I assume you'll be using an italian SIM? Else couldn't you just roam?
For usage with GSM-SIM outside of USA you need to buy an unlock code (ebay, etc?)
Apart from that, you'll have a big change it'll just work.
If it does not:
1) you have an old SIMcard
2) you need to do some edits (e.g. vodafone)
3) stock rom is giving you trouble (for me sometime 3G wouldn't automatically turn on)

Just make sure your SIM slot is unlocked and you will be good. I don't think you will need the AT&T/T-Mobile hack.

Sweet thanks guys. I don't need any hacks and the sim card is already italy ready. But for ics roms is there a fix that I would need?

[Q]Droid 3 US Gsm ICS

How to get the Droid 3 on ics with US Gsm capabilities, i know this was possible on gingerbread, any ideas?

Hi,
The Droid 3 can be used only to Verizon in the USA even if you unlock the phone.
There is a thread for using it in tMobile not sure if it works. GSM will work only outside the USA. Flashing a Radio, recovery.. Etc are not possible in it because it has a locked and encrypted. bootloader... Only option is to use bootstrap..
If I'm wrong, please correct me...

Its possible
Use the Radio and build.prop from this thread

There are two major ICS ROMs, one of them has better GSM support (can't remember which one)

It hasn't been updated with the ics build.prop

First, install the XT883 radio. Then, you can flash this zip I made to get it working.

These patches are for gb roms. Make sure you use the correct one for either bootstrap or safestrap
Sent from my XT860 using xda premium

The patch should fix it. You need a different build.prop and libmotoril.so IIRC.

your phone is a xt862 or 860?

check your network settings, i presume you want to be ar CDMA-EVDO, NOT GSM, this may be the problem

[Q] Does the XT860 Radio work on XT862 ?

After many months of discussions, I was wondering if anybody had ever flashed an XT860 radio on an XT862. I know people were using the XT883 to get Tmo/ATT access on their XT862, but has anybody ever tried using the XT860 radio? Some have said it's different radio hardware. I'm not 100% sure, and would like to hear from experience.
Also, if anybody needs it, the SBF for the Bell XT860 has been released so you can easily pull the radio file from there.
Please let mek now!

Bump, Anyone?

Curious about this myself. I've heard the same question asked in a couple other Droid 3 threads but it doesn't look like anyone's tried it yet.

Dunno, but with ATT having the Note (one sexy beast) why would you want a D3 on ATT?

I'm interested more for the overall engineering process for motorola. Do the different model numbers actually have different hardware on the inside? Or is it all software based?
Also, the note doesn't have a physical keyboard

I know this is an old thread but since some time has passed and more people have had time to play with using the xt883 radio on the xt862 I'm wondering if anyone has gotten around to trying the xt860 radio? I have an xt861 I'd like to put the xt883 radio on and don't really have the experience needed to try out the xt860 radio without some idea it would work but it seems to me that if this worked it would be a better solution than using the xt883 radio and having to deal with the few bugs that has then just using the xt860 radio which to my understanding is a straight gsm radio to start with. If there were a way to use the xt883 radio and maintain cdma and gsm then I could see the point but since we lose cdma anyways why not just go with the xt860 anyways? If someone wanted to provide the files and walk me through it I'd be willing to try it either on the xt861 I have or on an old xt862 if you'd rather after I get the 861 up and running on the 883 radio. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree and this has already been tried and didn't work but I haven't seen anyone state that to be the case when I went searching. Anyone have anythoughts on this?

You can always go back to original radio so there is no risk for you, maybe the latest baseband (newer than Verizon's one) from sbf.droi-developers.org the ACG OR ACG-nTelos will work fine, who knows maybe is US gsm-unlocked, just extract and flash the radio.img, no modified build.prop is neccesary
For the moment I don't have a D3 at my disposal to try the 860 radio but you can try to mount the system.img from the xt860 sbf zip file(mount -o loop) and copy the build.prop if after flashing you have unknown baseband version.

Don't flash the 860 radio on an 861/862/883 or vice versa. If you want GSM use the 883 radio, if it will let you.

The baseband on the xt861 I have is n_03.18.37P . This is different than the xt862 I'm using now and appears to be newer would this cause a problem with using the xt883 radio? If so is there a way to change the baseband on the xt861 to the same as the one on my xt862? Would using the one click unbrick found on this forum change the baseband?

It's easy to change it, you only have to write de radio partition with the radio.img file, the user data can remain intact. the ACG version number I remember that it's ending with 37 and the verizon's one is ending with 32
you have to put the phone in fastboot mode and use the moto-fastboot.exe /flash radio radio.img
all the radio.img versions can be found in the zip files from the http://sbf.droid-developers.org/ site, it takes around 5 minutes to do it, but as I said maybe you need a modified buid.prop from xt860, because for xt863 if is not modded you will have unknown version number for the baseband and no radio signal.

When I did this I didn't need to change the build prop. It work just fine for me. It worked while I was in Afghanistan and works on ATT and T-Mobile here stateside.

I appreciate the advice and I have used the 883 radio sp successfully several times but what I want to know is why can't we just use the 860 radio? Is there a hardware difference or will it just not work ith the 862 firmware? If the firmware is the problem could we just puut the entire 860 firmware on an 862/861/883 and essentially make it an 860? Have you tried this and it didn't work?

I think I read somewhere that with a foreign sim in the phone it will work on at&t and tmo and it would work in afghanistan anyways so I guess my question is were you using a sim from a carrier in afghanistan when you returned here?

If you updated to kitkat then downgraded to 4.2.2 knock on will be broken. You need to go into the hidden service menu 3845#*950# and go to hw device test , touch test, then update touch firmware.

I'm sorry for a noob question, but I just got my hands on one of these, how do you flash the ROM on this? I saw someone claiming there were no custom recoveries, is this true? Mine is rooted so far..thanks in advance!

I have installed custom roms but this kind is new to me, ummm how do I install it? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good day. I flashed this rom on my Sprint LS995 and now unable to get gsm connection. In settings network is grayed out. Is there a step by step process to get this rom working. If anyone else has had success using this rom on their LS995, can you explain what procedure you followed. Thanks in advance.
