The only Three firmware that I got to work was http://storagecow.eu/Xda/Galaxy%20S5...G1ANG2_H3G.zip
It had about 4/5 OTA updates before you can actually make VoLTE calls. The only thing I forgot was to factory reset before flashing when I did it the first time. Hope this helps. So you flashed on ODIN using AP/PDA file I'm assuming? And it was successful on the first instance? Because all other updates end up failing on the hidden.img part of the flash which basically is right at the end of the flashing process. Really annoying. EDIT - Realised this is Kitkat 4.4.2. I'm currently on lollipop. Is it possible to flash a downgrade just like that on ODIN? I will give this a go and update you on the results. Thanks again. |

All you need to remember is to restore to factory setting before or after flashing. |

Just seen 4g band 20 on my Note 4 when I picked it up from charging! Vanished just as I was screen shotting and now the dam thing is hanging on to the mast south of me which is not enabled to look for 4g... Normally when I use it indoors it laughs at me and displays emergency calls,
That's today's not at work time waster mission sorted, trying to replicate it.. Where's 3g cell breathing when you need it! Quote:

cheers mupet, den
Looking on the samsing website http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/m...SM-G360FHAABTU can see 4G FDD LTE B1 2100 mhz B3 1800 mhz B7 2600 mhz B8 900 mhz B20 800 mhz so another way of looking is *#0011# on the dialer at the top BAND 3, 10MHz = 1800MHz |

Yes I flashed it in Odin 3.09. Unfortunately only the KitKat one would work, but after you've successfully flashed and set it up just go to OTA updates setting and you'll soon be back up to Lollipop. I also had lollipop before I flashed it.
All you need to remember is to restore to factory setting before or after flashing. UPDATE - keeps on failing for me. You must've got lucky somewhere. |

Changing topic for a second; just seen on Three's Irish site that you can get 60GB for just under £30 a month.
http://www.three.ie/eshop/broadband-...pay-broadband/ If only we could have rates like that here. Three Sweden is much the same. In fact, without checking, I wonder if all Three networks abroad have better mobile broadband rates than we do? There's a five euro surcharge for 4G access from next year though it seems, but even then it's still cheaper than anything we have. |

Cheers, I've factory reset and now currently flashing age old 4.4.2. Lets hope this is successful then I don't mind going through several OTA updates after that.

So anyone with an LGG4 who lives in an 800 area? Have you had an update and can you help answer any of the outstanding queries RE where the handset originated from, signal priority etc?

No VoLTE or 800MHz access. I'll try to ring Three when I have time and also clean flash the HUK firmware. |

So for now the best device for the new network is still the Galaxy S5?

When I said about not being able to access the maintenence checker, is that you can no longer view future maintenance, I'm a aware you can still see current maintenance on the coverage checker.
Anyone know how we can see future maintenance again? |

Based on the priority info from japaul I've merged 4G 1800 + 3G layers (blue) and overlaid that on top of the 800 4G (red) to see where might be benefiting from the 800mhz
http://gdurl.com/YlLL ![]() So very few people will benefit from 4G 800MHz with network priority set to Zero, let alone the debarcle of network branded firmware updates being required for Android. Nice one Three
