IT WORKS!!!

I was getting 3G and H+ on my N900P and I couldn't have

been more happy. Alright, so I've uploaded a zip file with
everything you need.

Here's the link to the zip file on my Google Drive:

Edit: The modem is version MI3 (That's emm eye three). Also,
after you apply the GCF settings and reboot, you need to

change your mobile networks settings from CDMA/LTE to

GSM/UMTS for the new SIM card to be recognized. Enjoy!
