How to use Tmobile LTE with XT1052 (Asia retail)? - Moto X Q&A

Hey... I just moved to the US and do not want to give up on my XT1052 Asia Moto X yet. I have taken a T-mobile connection, and want to know how to get the 4G to work?
I am able to make calls and use 3G... but I am not getting the 4G signal.
I am currently using stock 5.1, rooted and xposed. I moved to this from CM12, and I am not sure if its that there is something wrong with the ROM, or if the phone itself is not compatible with it.
Any pointers on how to check this?

[Q] att htc one using viperone 2.6.0

hello everyone. im using att htc one that is rooted using viperone 2.6.0. the rom is great!!. im using t-mobile us but my problem is that i only get edge data. is it possible to get 4g ?? another stupid question. is it possible to load t-mobile software on it??. i really want to be able to get 4g on my phone. please help guys. i thank you all in advance.
You don't need to run tmo "software" on it. All GSM ones basically can run the same roms/software as far as custom roms go.
Have you checked your apn in settings? My guess is the current T-Mobile lte apn isn't selected or added.

[XT1060 Moto X Verizon Dev Edition] can I flash a XT1053 firmware onto XT1060?

Hello dear friends, Ive been wondering if it's possible that I flash a XT1053 (also D.E.) firmware onto my XT1060 Verizon D.E. and it would become a XT1053 handset for use on GSM networks? Sorry in advance if my question is too silly, but I have searched much for a week now without no any clear answer. Thank you very much too pay attention to my question?
You probably can, but you would get no service since the Verizon Version es CDMA and the XT1053 Version is GSM. But I think I heard that if you edit the Build.prop lines you can probably get service. Also this shouldn't go in the Development Forum, you should move this to the Q&A Forum.

Maybe if u edit the .xml to avoid flash the modem

You can definitely flash foreign builds onto the XT1060 Dev Edition. I was in fact running the German build of 4.4.2 on my XT1060 because there is no bloat to mess with. I've switched to the T-Mo 4.4.2 build now so I can use faux kernel but thats beside the point. I have no problem using these builds on Verizon's network as long as I have LTE/CDMA selected as the network mode (instead of LTE/GSM).
BUT
You can only flash system, boot, and motoboot to my knowledge. I haven't flashed any of the others because I haven't wanted to take the chance and have to spend time fixing it if something goes wrong. If you know how to use fastboot to flash specific files then you're golden.
If you want to use your XT1060 on GSM networks, then flashing system, boot, and motoboot from a T-Mo or foreign build will help you in that department. The VZW firmware doesn't have a lot of options for GSM networks (network modes, APN settings etc.) but the GSM builds do.

Thank you guys!
These info are surely helpful to me. As for my case, I'm going to receive a Verizon Moto X Xt1060 from my brother, but my network in here (outside of US) is GSM. Though my brother told me Verizon Moto X is a dual network handset and it supports GSM carriers, but through searching I read that it's right that it is able to work on GSM networks but not fully, especially 4G LTE and some other value-added services. Well, the only two things I need to be clear is whether XT1060 works perfectly in voice calls, 4G LTE, sms, mms... and other GSM stuff. A friend told me that by flashing a XT1053 firmware which is original GSM, my phone would become full GSM handset, no longer Verizon or any CDMA at all.
Well, anyone else please confirm this for me? Any dear friend have been using XT1060 with identical issue as my case? Many thanks again.
can someone make a guide for flashing foreign builds on different variants will be highly appreciated :good:

Flashing T-mobile ROM onto AT&T Moto X

Hello all,
I flashed a T-mobile 4.4.4 ROM onto my AT&T 4.4.4 Moto X today to test it. I've since reverted back to my AT&T 4.4.4.
My question to you...is there any real benefit over the T-mobile ROM, other than little to no bloatware?
Pros, or Cons?
I found that my 4g LTE was working, and WiFi too. Everything seemed to work. IDK about Wi-Fi calling?
Thanks
Where did you find 4.4.4 for T-Mobile? I thought the latest was 4.4.3.
I flashed my brother's nandroid, and did a factory reset on it afterwards. It worked fine, but I want to know if there is any real benefit. :good:
Thanks
Was this to one with a locked bootloader? I'm assuming not.
I unlocked my bootloader on my XT1058...Just wanted to know if there were pros, or cons to using a T-mobile ROM on my AT&T X.
Would WiFi calling work? I'm assuming not, as it's based on carriers network, but I thought I'd ask.
Thanks!

If you have T-Mobile version switch back to stock using motox toolkit.. Now you will be on stock 4.4.3 and then go to settings -system update.. You will see update to 4.4.4 ..its not a major updates it also SSL fix regarding to heartbleed bug

How to downgrade from 4.4.4 (NJ5) to 4.4.2 (NC2)? [AT&T Note 3 for T-Mobile]

Hey guys,
Upon reading through the threads, I wasn't able to find specifics to what I'm looking for.... it's apparent that the support has stopped for this issue, which I completely understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have an unlocked ATT Note 3 on (NJ5) to be used on T-Mobile.
I'm wanting to downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 to get back to (NC2).
Can someone confirm the following: (Please add to it if I'm missing something)
Odin ATT 4.4.2 (NC2) - Anyone have the direct link?
Root - Best method?
Safestrap work around? Is this the correct thread? How about this?
Planning to flash ATT FireKat (TouchWiz based) ROM....
From my understanding:
I only have one shot at this, therefore, I want to make sure that all my ducks are in a row before doing this as a "mistake," isn't an option right? I only have one shot at this or Hard brick yes?
Questions:
After successfully doing all this, with the correct TM APN settings, will the ATT phone be able to use all TM's bands? LTE 1700, Band 4 etc....
What are any drawbacks of using the ATT N3 on TM, if any? (I'll be happy with 4.4.2 so no worries on any fancy updates.)
The phones currently unlocked right now. Will doing the steps above lock the phone back up?
Is this all worth it or should I just sell the ATT N3 and buy a TM branded one?
Is there anything I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
* I hope this post also helps anyone in the future that's in the same boat as I am.

this will give you 100% stock nc2.
Best way to root is with towel root.
with safestrap you do not need a workaround as it works perfect on nc2 you only need to do a workaround if you would like to go to 4.4.4...And for the record I've done a lot of flashing of random stuff that came from here and I did myself and I'm yet to hard brick or come from a point of no return.
all those t-mobile questions I can't answer cause t-mobile is crap in my area..
Hope this helps!

Thanks a bunch! I really appreciate it.
To confirm:
From a dead stop (the state my phone is at right now on NJ5)...
1. Odin NC2. (Which one specifically shall I download? I see a bunch of different links.)
2. Towel Root.
3. Put the TM Sim in...add APN's...
4. Flash ROM if desired...
5. Good to go?
Just need these 4... and if you want to rom you need to install busy box and safestrap after you root with towel root. Then yea should be good to go!

Gotcha. Thanks!
Oh and would you happen to know if the ATT device has the 1700 band (band 4) to support TM's LTE? I remember with the older devices ATT branded phones didn't have the 1700 build in, but now I'm thinking it might be different....hhmm
Also, it is unlocked right now...will the phone lock itself after all this?

Not sure but I think there is some that use att note 3 on t-mobile and works fine I'm guessing... and personally never unlocked a phone for use elsewhere as I been with att for like 10 years lol... but I really don't see it locking it personally...
Help on using 4G LTE in Pakistan
I have just received my AT&T Samsung Note 3 model SM N900A and am using it in Pakistan with warid network. I received the sim unlock code from AT&T. Warid is giving us 4G LTE service but my cell does not work on it. Since warid is not giving 3G service, my cell just connects using edge which is very slow. I actually bought Note 3 for 4G LTE but due to some reason its not working. The carrier people have no answer except that my set is not supported by their system. Can you kindly help? My set is not rooted.
Warid 4G LTE is working on 1800Mhz FDD Band 3 which is supported by my set. Other device parameters are as below:
Baseband version N900AUCUBMJ5
kERNEL VERSION 3.4.0-1625098
[email protected] #1
build JSS15J.N900AUCUBMJ5
Android version 4.3
And I would also like to know if I can update my set to newer android version or not?
Awaiting your positive response.

Question, are these files also downgrade the modem firmware to match the 4.4.2 ROM?
The reason I want to downgrade to 4.4.2, is to fix the GPS signal issue we all AT&T Note 3 owners having after the 4.4.4 update. Does anyone downgraded to 4.4.2 and GPS issues fixed?

If it's the US Cellular variant then no, none of the ROMs have working mobile signal. I'm not sure about other XT1093 versions as I have only tested the US Cellular one.

I appreciate your response, but it wasn't long after this post that I exchanged the Moto X for the G3. I needed more memory.
I reflashed my stock rom and my signal never came back. Don't know what to do. Matches my wifes phone exactly but I cant connect to mobile network even after flashing her working modem to my phone. Stumped. Reactivated phone. Still nothing. Flashing a US Cellular Rom to my phone killed it for good.
