Hi everyone, I'm working on Project Fi and the build is LVY47H. I found an image in another thread and it seems to be an older version. I was wondering if anyone who had bought an N6 from the Fi signup has made a stock image of this build with bootloader and radios, and if they wouldn't mind sharing? I had lost my stock image when it became corrupted.
The only reason I ask is because according to the people at Fi said this build has a few tweaks specific to using the Fi network, one important one being switching between Sprint and T-Mo networks easier. It may also have different Wi-Fi settings as Fi works on Wi-Fi as well. Could anyone help me out? Thanks!

Not sure what you mean by "older version" - if it's H it's H, there aren't various builds with the same build number.

This is what I had thought, but based on what I had been seeing on other boards from Fi users it sounded like there could be slightly different software and radios from the H posted version to the H version some are running. It doesn't help that there is no factory image available from Google on this or a way to verify, but it does seem the H build does work best on the network and just wanted to be as thorough as possible. Thanks!

Hi guys, appreciate the help with this. I have rooted and have tried all sorts of roms on my Milestone
However with Cyanogen cm7 with Gingerbread 2.3 and other variances of the cm7 i cannot get any network coverage or cant connect to my provider. However my phone works perfect with the 2.3 AOSP roms...
Is there something obvious I am doing wrong? Am i missing something when installing cyanogen roms?
Help?

Yes...You probably need to apply the basebands of your region when you install CM roms.
You can do that in Androidiani 3.3 Open Recovery, on the menu "Change baseband"

Ahh OK so it has got to do with applying the basebands to my region.
I have seen this option in Open Recovery 3.3 . Is there any specific file I need to download or number I need to know before attempting to change my baseband.?
i live in New Zealand.
thanks.

No, you dont need to download additional files. Just go to Androidiani 3.3 and try applying bands until you get coverage. Many of the people apply RTEU and it works. I dont know what is the baseband for your region, but you switch between them and you will find the proper one.
Hope I've been helpful!

If you're with XT use the Brazil bb.

Where abouts in NZ are you? I'm also a Kiwi (Gisborne) and I have no baseband trouble at all on any of the GB ROM's, or any ROM's for that matter. I've never had to mess with the baseband and I move from ShadowMod to Cyan7 all the time as they release new updates.
What baseband did you use? Im having the same problem and I can't get 3g working for the life of me. I think it's a mixture of apn setting and baseband. Im on 2degrees btw.
I need help with this too. I live in Auckland and use Vodafone NZ. Originally, my milestone came installed with Froyo (v2.2) and it was the Europe version I believe......both 2G and 3G works fine on it, however I have problems with the wifi like many people have.
So then I later flashed to the New Zealand v2.1 SBF, and now wifi works fine but I can't get any connection to Vodafone. The reason is basically because Vodafone doesn't support Milestone, only Telecom XT does. However, if I switch the network from 2G to 3G, then I can connect to Vodafone. I can also connect to 2Degrees, I can see all 3 networks (Telecom, Vodafone, 2Degrees) when I'm on 3G and I get about 3/4 bars constant so it's stable.
But when if I switch to 2G, I get completely no bars and can't detect any networks at all. Not a big deal but I wanna use 2G to save battery. When I was using the Europe SBF (the v2.2 Froyo that came pre-installed with the Milestone), I was able to use 2G no problem.
Anyway, I think a simple baseband change should be fine, but I'm not sure which one I should use that works well with Vodafone NZ.
The baseband has to match your handset's capability. Xt units lack the Vodafone 900 band, they have 850 instead. Both carriers use 2100 in the CBD. Vodafone has also 2g network that has crap coverage. I'm using my xt set with Vodafone, but there's no point changing the bb as xt ms can't do 900 anyway. Basically get ****ty GPRS except right in town. It's only used as car GPS/stereo so no biggy for me.
but mine isn't originally an XT Milestone, I bought it 2nd hand on Trademe and the original owner of the phone got it from somewhere else. It's just that I flashed the New Zealand v2.1 SBF, which just so happens to be for Telecom since there isn't one for Vodafone......
Plus, it was able to work fine on 2G when I was using the Europe v2.2 (Froyo) SBF, so I don't see why a simple baseband change isn't possible?
Check the exact model number, most of the ones floating in nz are telecom models, no matter what the previous owner was using it with. You can change basebands as much as you want, if it doesn't match your hardware it just won't work. I.e. you will not have 3g outside of main centres. Afaik, 2g is the same on all models.
So, install OR, then one of the cyanogen based roms (it has all nz apns). Boot into or, there's a list of basebands - try till you get one that works.
Have you set your APN setting right?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
Cyanogen based roms have all the nz apns, otherwise, you have to put the correct one in.
Hey all.
I've looked for some info on here but couldn't find any.
I am on the Z build from Sprint since I activated the N6 I bought from Motorola on sprint. I know the project Fi N6 ship with a different build. Has anyone come from a Z build (5.1.1) to the Fi build 5.1? Is the service any better? I also want to be able to get the 5.1.1 from Fi when it drops. I just don't want to flash and have to setup my device again if the improvement is slim. I have asked on the G+ closed community for Fi and I always get a canned response.

Not quite what I was looking for but got me a bit closer to my answer. Thanks for the heads up. I was looking for more of a personal experience going from Z build to the Fi build when on Project Fi
Well I have unlocked my bootloader, fastbooted twrp, rooted, flashed stock Project Fi build (H) , fastbooted stock recovery and relocked bootloader.
Now I don't have the fluctuations in signal on project Fi that I had with the Z build. Also I'm ready for 5.1.1 from project fi

So it looks like new Nexus phones are not supported yet, and its also reported that you look band 12 with M and Project Fi. So does it work on Tmo?
Yes. I'm on T-Mo with a stock N6 running Android 6.0 and LTE discovery (app) is showing lte band 12 right now.
Android M doesn't support any bands. It's hardware.

The problem with an OTA is that it can only update a specific build. The normal OTA everyone else will get will not be able to update a t-mobile rom, so t-mobile will have to release their own.
Bands themselves for LTE are hardware in the SoC.
As for WiFi calling, that's built into Marshmallow..my understanding is you just need the "my tmo" app from play or something.
But yes, if you want to receive an OTA then you'll have to wait, but you should also be able to flash the system.img and boot.img

Thank you sir! I'm rooted, so I plan to update manually with fastboot anyway. I'm seeing conflicting reports from others that have manually updated about WiFi calling working or not, and band 12 being available or not. Guess I'll wait another day or two and see how it shakes out.
I am a stock non rooted T-mobile user and i upgraded to Marshmallow using the standard image that google posted. everything works, LTE and wifi calling included. I have had no issues so far.
I'm running stock factory 6.0 rooted with twrp and T-Mobile WiFi calling works perfect. Thanks marshmallow

Thanks. Are u on latest build? Fi users reporting that M killed band 12 for them on N6
Band12 data support is removed for Fi users in the M radio because Fi will not support T-Mobile's proprietary VoLTE. So, no band12 data with the Fi SIM installed.
If you run M on your N6 with a T-mobile SIM in, you do get band12 ?

Hi,
From Google official image download site, there is only one image to download, it doesn't specify XT 1100 or 1103. So one image for all model? I flashed several ROM to My XT1100 , but I cannot get T-Mobile wifi calling to work, so I want to try the factory image. Also where to download the T-Mobile official ROM?
Thanks.

tmobile doesnt add any bloatware(having the sim in your phone on first bootup does). att, which has a lot of bloatware, also doesnt add any. but when you boot up the very first time with your sim card in the phone, it sees att, then adds the bloatware. if you boot up without your sim, no bloatware
Thanks. I flashed factory image, however I still cannot get Wifi calling to work. I turned on the airplane mode, turned on wifi, and then turned on Wifi calling (Wifi preferred). Nothing happened. Cannot call any number. I did same on iPhone 6 and it works. How can I trouble-shoot the problem?

I think if you don't activate it with project Fi you won't have any bill with them and could activate it on any carrier.
Yes, there are other versions available, but if you are specifically after the XT-1900-1 Android One version, I think is only available through Fi.
Will the Android One version work on Sprint? I'm wondering because my wife has ordered the Alexa version from Motorola and we're on Sprint but thinking about switching to Fi. And I don't think the Alexa version works with Fi, correct? I think if we get her the Android One and use it on Sprint for now, we have options without having to buy her another phone if we switch. Thanks!

Correct, they have the same bands, just different software. So the project for one can be use on Sprint, but not vice versa.

Actually according to the Project Fi guy on reddit the Alexa version is 100% compatible with Fi. I'm to new to post outside links but if you search the ProjectFi reddit sub for "Will regular Moto X4 work on Fi" or "Does the Alexa version of the Moto X4 work with Project Fi?" you will be able to find more info.

I can confirm that my Project Fi Moto X4 purchased directly from Google work on Verizon wireless.
I picked up two of them as I am able to trade in a couple of Nexus 6's and receive a decent credit amount towards the purchased phone(s).

Eventually, should be able to. Once we have root. And TWRP (or some other recovery). I'm not surprised if there is a way to flash things thru ADB with the new partition structure for Trebble.
Can someone here who does NOT have the Project Fi model please post your build, firmware, and baseband versions?
If someone is willing (non Project Fi), also do "adb pull /system/build.prop" and PM me a link to that file? (let's not clog up the thread with it)
We have a root method, but trying to determine if it is variant specific.
Thanks!
