Hi everyone,
I have two computers, exactly the same (same software and hardware) - see attached picture . The only difference is the Vodafone firmware version:
- 001.001_000 which works (even on two other computers I have
- 001.001_002: with this firmware I can’t connect to 4G/3G/LTE
I am thinking that since it’s the only difference, if I can install the older version of the firmware, it should work, since it’s an exact replica.
But when I try to install this firmware: 9999999_9904930_SWI9X30C_02.24.03.00_00_VODAFONE_001.001_000
I get the following message. Can anyone help me install this older firmware?
FDT version: 1.0.1702.1

“MT29F4G08ABBFA3W” is new flash, you cannot apply the old FW/PRI
Ok thank you for the feedback.
Why isn’t it working with this new configuration?

I don’t know, can be some setting (like APN) are different
Have you tried AT!RMARESET to restore the problematic module?
Is the APN changing when firmware is upgraded? Isn’t it supposed to be independ?
As said, everything is exactly the same, except for the firmware version.
I have tried to restore now, but same result.

have you compared “AT+CGDCONT?”
have you compared “AT!GSTATUS?”
You can check whether the received signal is good in the RSRP value :
I suspect your main antenna is not receving signal well:
I will try that, but I juste realized another difference, do you think it might explain it?
.
and on the one with the issue :

no idea
have you swapped the module among the two PCs?
No I haven’t done that, I am a little scared to mess up the functionning one.

then you need to compare the AT command settings
