I got the N910T. Can I use any baseband? - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the T-mobile N190T Note 4 when it first came out and I bought it the first week of it.
Can I flash any baseband on it as long as it is for T-mobile? Can I use COG2 or any others?

My N910T is currently on COG2 baseband, bootloader and rom which I got by ODIN flashing. In dev forum, I saw people upgrading from COG2 to DOK2 (latest) by flashing DOK2 baseband and bootloader, then flash DOK2 based custom ROMs and they worked for them. So I think you can try the same to see. Hope that helps.

Sammobile firmware flashing questions

I have a Canadian variant with a different model number but I want to install firmware from tmobile which basically has the same specs, but when I do Odin flash I get fail messages. The only firmware that works is for my specific model N910W8.
How can I flash other country firmware? Anyone know how? I did it with my S5 so I'm confused. Thanks

It's not a question of another country's firmware but instead it's just a fact that
you should not and cannot odin flash a different model's firmware into your
phone no matter how similar the two models might be.
I cannot odin flash firmware from sammobile designed
for N910W8 into my N910T model either.
You are lucky that your odin flashing of N910T firmware simply failed,
it could have been a disaster since it could have easily bricked your phone.
Remember there is a BIG difference between firmware and roms...
They are NOT the same thing...
You will be able to flash some zip file roms which are designed for the N910T
successfully using twrp recovery but before you do I would strongly suggest to
do a lot of research before flashing anything so you don't wind up with a shiny
brick.
Good luck!

Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910T 4.4 - Can I Flash 910F ROM?

Flash N910T with F910F ROM
Hello guys, I need your help. I got as I thought SM-N910F brand new in Russia with 4.4 KK. It worked fine except for being weak to work with 3G. 4G was OK. Russian localization was OK. When I tried to update the ROM, I discovered this device is not 910F but unlocked 910t instead. While experimenting with flash, I damaged efs. Then I restored it with Kies flashing stock ROM. So now I'be got lollipop phone which says "insert T-mobile SIM".
SI my idea is to flash it with some European ROM which support Russian language. Possibly, some 910f mod? Can somebody suggest which ROM to flash? Unfortunately, I didn't backup original ROM.

You cannot flash a N910T phone with a N910F custom or stock twrp flashable zip file rom.
What you need to do now is to find, download and ODIN flash the official firmware which
came with your phone in order to get your phone working properly again.
Sorry about that,
Have a great day!

Thank you, Misterjunky. There is no such a thing as "official firmware" for my phone. Because it was brought to Russia and unlocked unofficially as I can see now. They even changed the phone label on the back side. So they flash some custom firmware, I think so but I have no idea which one.
To put it more clear, what i have now is exactly official firmware. I've got it with Samsung Kies Tools - Firmware upgrade and initialization which downloads the official firmware based on model name and serial number. But unfortunately this is not what I need because it doesn't accept my local SIM
BoBCaTROM by @turilo worked for my device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...cial-bobcatromn910fton910tw8-v2-0nk5-t2992648
But the problem with 3G persists. Device works with 2G and 4G without problem, but doesn't work with 3G. Any ideas how to adapt modem from 910C to this model?

Yes, you can install nearly any of the firmwares from the sammobile site. If you're asking which firmware would be the best to flash to your device, it depends where you are located. The NI1 firmware is available for several different countries, so I would flash the firmware for your region, it should be optimized to best work on your networks.
update: I installed the DOD3... it worked!!

When you flash the firmware through Odin it will completely wipe the device, it doesn't matter if you're rooted or not.
thank you
but what if the S4 is locked to orange carrier?
The firmware I have downloaded is carrier free...
is there any problem?
I am afraid of bricking the phone.... I understood the root will not be a problem, but I am afraid of the lock carrier.... the baseband is not the same as the one installed on the phone now

Baseband?

Hello XDA comunity i have a note 4 in which i have installed Dr. Ketan Rom. Now I want to install a Note 7 port but the ones i found require some baseband that should end in EPE3 or something, but my baseband ends in DOK2. The question is, what happens if i proceed with the installation? Would it brick my phone? What are the consequences? Thank you. :fingers-crossed:
For note 7 roms you need any marshmallow baseband.
Flash any marshmallow stock firmware in odin then flash twrp recovery.
Now you can flash any note 7 Roms.
Dok2 is lollipop baseband if you flash note 7 Roms it will not boot.and your sim and wifi will not work
So do i wipe everything and flash a marshmallow firmware first and then flash the note 7 rom or how do i do it? Thank you

Downgrade firmware question.

I have a ATT s7 edge. I was running on g935AATT4CRE4. Oreo. I found a firmware that was a 935U firmware. I flashed it with Odin with no problems. I liked it a lot. I wanted to go back and compare the 2. I know, kind of dumb. I had issues flashing original firmware listed above. I did some research, I downloaded latest att software and flashed it. Worked fine. Here is Build number G935AUCS8CRK1 . Now I cannot go back and flash the 935u firmware. I have noticed the 5th digit from the end is now 8 and not 4. Could this be issue? Any ideas.
This is snapdragon
G935UOYM4BQD2 this is unlocked firmware

You are correct. There is an 8 version on the U firmware that will work though
Any idea where I can find the u version?
Found it on Sam mobile. Thanks
Is there a place to download this firmware without paying?
I found version 8 935u firmware. Used odin correctly. It flashed and said passed in green. Kept rebooting to samsung power on screen. What am I doing wrong?
You need to download and flash the SM-935U 8.0 firmware that matches your baseband version exactly if you scroll down you will see an USA(AT&T) version that matches your baseband that is the one you need.

So just to clarify. My baseband is G935AUCS8CRJ2 can I flash this Unlocked firmware? G935UUEU8CRJ2
If so, do I use all of the parts in Odin, or just AP?
