The bandwidth of your JVU must be compatible with the spanish regional networks

[Q] strange problem of only one sim working.

I have a galaxy tab p1000.
Firmware-2.2 (stock version)
Baseband- p1000DDJM2
Kernal- 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #
Build no-Froyo.DDJM8
Its network unlock as I bought it from market and I have used
Different sims..
Bt recently a new problem has started.. Only bsnl (india) sim works
On it.. Other sims dont get signal..
For eg. If i have inserted vodafone sim, It shows vodafone sim bt i
Dont get any network tower. Instead I get a crosscircle.
I checked my sim lock by dialing some code I gt here(*#7.....#)(dnt remember)
it shows all of them off..that means it not locked.
So I cant understand why my other sims have stoped working suddenly.
Plzzz help.
it seems no1have a solution to this problem yet..

Try flash a different modem. JPZ for example.

How to do tat??

Get JPZ
I can't confirm that Gingerbread modem works in Froyo.
But I am pretty sure it can.
You need Odin v1.7
and need to put the modem.bin in the "PHONE" part of Odin and DON'T tick "re-partition"
I would recommend upgrading your tab to at least GB though when you are up to it.

I think the stock one is JK4 for JB. But for jamaica, I'd suggest looking at the modems your carrier is on, those would probably be the best.
Ok after doing some research i found out that the network I'm on uses the 900mhz frequency.. which modem uses 900mhz as default?

A modem with 850mhz unlocked would probably do great but what I think would be best is to find the base of your carrier's modem.

Well, JK4 is actually UGJK4. So let's say you have JK3 (UGJK3) and it works great, you know that the newer modem, JK4, will work well.
But now that I'm thinking about it, did your phone come with GB? If so, it's quite hard to us to know which modem is came with. Modems are by area so (almost) every carrier uses different one. There's a modem thread in the Dev section (stickied), you might have to try a few different one.

When i got the phone it was running Froyo which I later updated to GB.. my brother's Cappy has the UCKK4 and he's still running GB.. we got the phone the same time and both updated the same time so I'm assuming that is what I had before I upgraded to JB.. I'm on JK3 modem but i can't seem to flash JK4 or any other modem.. it always ends with an error...
[Status: 0]
Installation aborted..
I re-downloaded the file several times and still nothing.. I even changed the CWM and nothing.... I'm on the verge of giving up

U can use Odin3 v1.83 (the regular Odin) to flash a modem as well. Just pull the modem.bin out of the cwm zip of the modem u want, get into download mode, put the modem.bin in the PHONE tab/slot in Odin and flash.
Get the Odin here if u don't have it already... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33577757
If u r running a JB Rom, then u will have to use one of these modems...http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
I have had success with the i9000ugkc1.

No need to give up, you can flash modems after modems without any problem. It just a bit time consuming.
To be safe, backup your efs folder so that if your IMEI is unknown again, you can use the backup.

From what i know of the Captivate specs...the gsm 900mhz frequency that it can operate on is just the 2g/edge network. U said u saw the H before on GB rom (custom rom or leaked firmware, i'm guessing?). That letter H can be changed to read whatever letter u want. Just saying.
So in reality the problem may not be the modems (although some modems will work better than others for sure), it may just be the network service that your provider has in your area... It may just be low/bad cell signal.
What other frequencies are used by your provider ? Compare that with the frequency band specs of the Captivate and you will get a better answer on the quality of service you should expect. Maybe your provider has a coverage map that you could compare to as well.

Why dont u try flashing EURXXX firmware instead I think you wont notice anything different, I flashed a brazaian firmware and not a damn thing was diferent from EUR firmware
Keyboards also were the same as I bought the phone. Even BALTIC languages were same
PS I tried this because I tought my sim will be unlocked (no luck there anyway)
Stop spamming all development threads! We won't help you if you're that annoying and don't respect the forum rules! You are lucky that I'm on my phone right now and can't report every single post you made!

What do you expect from wifi on your phone? all wifi use in every country use the same protocol (802.11a/b/g/n/and so on). 802.11b/g is very common this day. The differences between country only in the channel they are allowed by their government law.
In summary, you can flash any stock rom (euro or asia, or china, or anything you like) and your wifi should work. If your wifi don't work, check if your wifi AP in your home/office (any place you use wifi) is working well or the configuration is correct. If you are sure there's no problem with AP and other device (like your laptop or other phone) able to connect, then maybe you have a faulty wifi hardware in your O4X.

upgrade rom solves these errors????
thanks a lot all
(sorry for my english)
Hey,
Yeah, upgrading even to a 2.3.6 version should solve those probles, but JB is also pretty stable
For starters, if your phone is an I9000, then I think you should be able to flash in any 2.3.6 rom for the I9000 to root... But I'm not sure about this, mine hasn't been branded so someone else might be able to give a bit more info on whether its safe.

Yeah, you should be able to (I don't think it'll cause any problems), and your sim should work fine with an Italian 2.3.6 rom. PM me at some point if you want instructions

Yes should work. Never had 2.2 on my galaxy. Use Odin to flash a new stock firmware. Search for your country so you get your APN settings. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9000&pcode=-1#firmware
Here is a guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259240
Or you try it with Samsung Kies

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100642
And after that try to flash indian JB.
Not sure if it will fix it, but you can try.
Or you can use Indian JB firmware which is ddulp8. Either way using other region firmwares doesn't really effect anything except some cases of xxlqg(lux..I think) have problem when roaming and old china firmware which causes hardbrick.
