Disabled SPB filtering in md1img, and added US band support (as far as I know…)

Please try:

fastboot flash md1img md1img-us-bands.img
fastboot flash nvdata nvdata_F30_US_REGION.bin

Then check in engineer mode for bands

Even if they show up, they may not work properly. Would help if I had a USA device firmware for another phone, so I can see the RF calibration data.

Can Modem Meta generate calibration data? Never used it.

This might use the same RF chip, I’ll check.

TCL-5007Z-T-Mobile-REVVL-4-LTE-US

nope, it’s mt6177L, not M

Anyways… Please try the above:

china is now sold out of the old board for both black and white, 32GB and 64GB….
There may be one or two suppliers that still have….

Wonder phone? You told me it’s 6761, you think it’s same? With same frontend RF? Who knows

Well… I wonder if they would be upset… I should stop wondering, they’d be upset. Lol, not happening.

Need RF config for LWTG_6177M_R3_6761

LWTG_6177M Build = China Market Only

Build code breakdown:

  • L = LTE
  • W = WCDMA (3G)
  • T = TD-SCDMA (China-only 3G)
  • G = GSM (2G)
  • 6177M = RF chip variant

TD-SCDMA is exclusive to China - no US phone would ever have this.

The Problem:

Any phone with MT6177M + US bands would have a LWG build (not LWTG), which means:

  • Different modem firmware structure
  • Calibration may not be directly compatible

Why do they care if you make it work in America it gives them more sales

It’s not about caring

They changed the new phone for a reason

I’m talking about like qin in general

They should allow US bands they’ll get more sales

its not just that
as they also released it with a locked down ROM

That’s every f21 stock ROM

no
this one had adb install blocked etc
and the other things that had in build.prop…..

All like that :slight_smile:
Check the other stock roms
