How do I enable 850 MHz support without flexing my T-Mobile phone? Adjust seem 0025, offset 00 so that bits 0, 1, and 3 are all "on". If you're a stickler for detail, grab seem 0171_0001 and change the text in there to say "Quad-Band GSM" - this is what displays in the Settings > Phone Status > Other Information > Technology menu. Restart your phone and you'll have 850 MHz support. You will likely not be able to register on any of those towers, though, due to lack of roaming agreements.

SEEM 0025_0001

**all offsets are HEX**

offset 00 - bit 0, bit 3: 900/1800 and 1900 (set each of these bits to 1)
bit 0, bit 1, bit 3: 850/1900 and 900/1800 (set each of these bits to 1)
bit 0, bit 2, bit 3: 850/1900 and 900 (set each of these bits to 1)

Cingular tx/rx on the 850/1900 in my area, not on the 900/1800, will this help at all?

Cingular tx/rx on either the 850 or 1900 band, not tx on 850 and rx on 1900, if that is your question.

What you can do is go to Motomodders.net, and download seem backups from v551, and upload them into your phone. Much quicker if you are not exprienced in hex editing

My v180 is already modified from the factory how strange, the bit manipulation for that seem was already checked but the phone doesnt have "other info" on the screen. the quad band is already entered into the phone

Posted by: DLando

oops I didnt upload the seem correctly to the phone, and yes it is quad band from the factory on this one when "other info" is activated.
