[gillim74]

Crap....yes! you are correct! I dunno why I had Band 20 floating around in my head this whole time. Yes, Band 13 is for USA Verizon (not Band 20).

Lol.ok.are you gonna try it

Not necessarily. The A3000 is the North American model and then there is the slightly different variant still with the same A3000 model number that is China model. the A3003 is the Europe / Asia model

A3003 is Europe/Asia model. North America and China shared the same model number which is A3000

Actually, the A3003 is the European model, and there are two variants of the A3000, one for China, and one for the United States. The difference between the two are the bands that it supports. Also, the Chinese A3000 comes with HydrogenOS, however I don't think all Chinese A3000 variants come with H2OS because mine is a Chinese A3000, and it came with OOS.

(edited my previous post)
Also It they dont all come with it. I have both version of the A3000 and they both came with Oxygen OS (and when I say "I" I mean I have the US version and my brother has the China version which came with Oxygen OS)

Will this work on the 3T? Have the US version, need the Asian bands.

I assume you would need the a3000 one, but I haven't tested so im not sure

Ok thanks for the quick response.i might kniw how to back up the a300 qcn

 

[DarkN3ss61]

Yeah if anyone knows how to do it and remove the IMEI, i can backup both version of the A3000, the US and China version and upload them

Also is it safe to use the QCN of A3003 with the A3000?

Fact is,

Am using A3003 QCN as a base on my A3000 CN now,

Reason why i do so, is because A3003 has broadest band available, so that it theoritically also will have more NV value configured into it,

I used to try to do the unlocking process using standard A3000 QCN, and it wont connect to the network, some config must be missing

One thing you have to take note is, that it will remove CDMA capability from the phone,

In case you still need CDMA, please add it back in DFS bands section

If anyone here can provide the A3000 US QCN, i might try to see the result using it as a base

Like I said, I can. I just need to know how

Am afraid that the config might be different,

Although in my experience, even SD625 & 820 share similar config and can be exchanged

So who knows, 821 and 820 might do same thing,

If you are confident with your ability in restoring back stuff, you might want to try it

 

[gillim74]

Im downloading cm13 rom now ill back up a3000 qcn

You can use this trick here : http://cellphonetrackers.org/change-imei-number-snapdragon-device.html

basically either you need to strip it, or change it into number we can easily find so that we can replace it with our own IMEI later
