w220 Change Band 850/1900 to 900/1800 ???? - GSM-Forum

reo · 07-19-2007, 03:23

Hi

i wanted to find out if anybody has a solution to convert the Bands on the Motorola W220 from 850/1900 to 900/1800 or vice versa.

i read a post from infinity team suggesting that you should try to flex it, has anybody or Infinity Team tested this theory and if so can you please give us some feedback.

Thanks

Hello,

You can easilt yry to make this test by yourself.
1. make flash and eeprom backup for emergency case
2. use different flash files from support area and write in phone

when they are going to him to place the option to read firmware, idio and flex to infinity, I turn w220 9000/1800 to 850/1900, just by to flashear it with iq-box or rockerbox. with you he is not thus?

Hello guys, Im new in this forum. Im from Mexico, and the band used here is 1900 (TELCEL). Im intended to buy Nokia 8910 (900/1800), and I really would like to know if there is a way to change it to 1900 band, because Im in a hurry to make a decision of buying. Can anyone tell me if that is just possible or is a sure thing? How can I upograde the software? by bluetooth? Thanks.

hello!

i think to get fast response better to post this question in Nokia repair forum.
Anyway, i dont think it is possible to do by bluetooth. Need flashing and hardware modification
