No network access - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I was recently running Ultibread 1.3 with Android 2.3.2 and Speedmod kernel (not sure which version) with no problems. Then a mate recommended I try Darky's ROM 9.5 which I did. After flashing it (following the instructions very closely), I didn't have any network access except via WiFi. My SIM card is no longer being read. I have tried flashing it again and even tried reverting to my previous ROM and also tried flashing various modems, but to no avail. Have I done something wrong? I would appreciate any help.

Sounds like you need to enter your apn settings

Yeh I've tried that multiple times but still nothing.

Some Mate .
Flash stock rom with pit 512 and repartition checked usually cures fixable problems .

I have flashed 2.3.2 official leaked Samsung ROM and I've also tried the 2.3.3 ROM, both with the 803 pit and the 512 pit. Nothing makes a difference. As said before, I have also tried various modems and kernels. Nothing is fixing the problem. It just says 'Emergency calls only'.

No support and majority of help broken phone posts on this forum are darky roms .
Thats the only reason .

Check imei?

edit: wrong answer..not data related Any chance to try your sim in other phone also?

my imei is correct, and my sim card works in another phone i'm using as a spare until i get mine working again. i'm currently trying cyanogenmod 7 nightly but still haven't had success. i've been given a tip to flash back to the stock rom. apparently that can fix the problem?

I have the same problem with Darky 9.5
I try a lot of flash with repartition
I am speaking with darkyy (on GTalk) for try to solve the problem (I think there is a bug on this ROM)
I tell you if I have the solution
Here there is my topic of bug

[Q] Baseband unknown after flashing to Froyo

At first, sorry for - in a way - repeating myself, as chunks of my problem are spreaded across some other posts. However I still haven't managed to solve the problem and haven't received any working solution I've decided to create a new thread.
I would really like to taste some of the sweet of Doc's Froyo ROM but my SGS is refusing to cooperate with any Froyo version. Originally it is DTJG4 (JM8 works without any problems). The trouble starts with any Froyo version, as every attempt to flash results in baseband unknown and no IMEI. Recently I used the Doc's v8 and still got the baseband unknown and no IMEI, however this time I've checked and the /efs folder is untouched.
Tried already:
-JG4-Doc Froyo v7 and v8
-JG4-JM8-Doc Froyo v8
-JG4-JM8-JPM
-JG4-JP6
-JG4-JM8-JP6
Am I really stuck with JG4 ?
same here....have tried all the methods i have searched but still no luck! ><
waiting for any new solution...
I think it means the modem.bin was not flashed (or flashed incorrectly) to your device. This happened to my Captivate when flashing a new ROM. Pull the modem.bin out of the ROM you are flashing and flash the modem using Odin v1.3.

Actually I haven't tried taking the modem out of the ROM, however several times I have flashed just the modem using both, ODIN and CWRecovery. It is just a stubborn bastard that won't get the Froyo running .. it makes me frustrated

Am I really stuck ? .. As the carrier and samsung are delaying the official Froyo update from month to month, I'm starting to lose hope that my phone will ever run Froyo .. There must be a way !
have you tried just flashing the modem file? I think doc's thread has a bunch of modem packages you can use..
I have a similar problem and flashing the modem still leaves you with baseband unknown. I have yet to find a solution for this either.
Mine now works fine
so what was the cause - still no idea
so what did help - rebooting the phone couple of times without the sim inside
heads up !
I have been experience this problem as well, and it seems to be a quite common problem when flashing froyo. But I think I have found a solution to the problem.
For some reason the nv_data.bin is changed during the flashing process, so that the phone can not read the imei. Therefore the phone / modem / baseband is not started correct. I loaded an old backup of the nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 (there are threads on this forum how to do that) and then it worked again.
But the question is what is happening when flashing? My product code is still readable in the nv_data.bin. And when I go back to 2.1 everything works again. From my testing, this happened with every 2.2 and 2.3 version I’ve tried.
Does anyone know what is changed when flashing froyo in the nv_data.bin? Why is this only happening to some of us? For your information I loaded froyo half a year ago via kies and a register hack which changed my product code. To solve that I reverted back to the .bak files. Maybe I did something wrong back then?

[Q] GPS died from flashing?

When I flashed my phone with a popular custom firmware everything worked fantastic, so I flashed a friend's SGS as well, but the GPS simply died, in applications like Twitter and Maps it's like the GPS function is off.. I've now tried 3 different roms, they all work om my phone but the GPS is still dead on my friends phone... Can someone please tell me what is wrong and even better - maybe have a sollution to the problem?

I doubt the GPS is damaged by a flash. More likely something on the system got corrupted. Try a factory reset and/or a full flash with partitioning, using Odin.
Flashing has messed up some files more than likely popular custom rom no guesses which one .
Flash to stock rom to see if that fixes the problem.That fails take it to a Samsung Service Centre .
ODIN METHOD

What version/ROM should I install via ODIN, that will work when I activate re-partitioning?
The one in the post Eclair first then latest JPY .

Samfirmware says "1 file select NO .PIT", should I download the right PIT and ignore that message? I understand that a .PIT is necessary for a Re-Partition?
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE POST i gave you the link for .
Samfirmware is not mentioned in that post .

Hi! I had the same then I found that assisted GPS was turned on and the mobile network is not everywhere supports it.
Check with this: *#*#3214789650#*#* at Application Settings check Operation Mode. It should be standalone.
But of course it can be anything else... And you can check the debug logs with adb too.

flashed new rom now NO GPS

yes as title says flashed a stock rooted rom, installed darkys 9.5 after 4.5hrs of trying now NO GPS what so ever
gps data app from ap store shows no sat`s what do i do?

not sure if i went flash correctly to GB 2.3.3

Hello
I used heimdall to flash the samfirmware Ginger bread rom
i wiped data from my phone but in about it says I900UGJK4 is the baseband
but build is GINGERBREAD.UCKF1, also going to download mode I still get the old digger android guy i thought the new was two computers
firmware says 2.3.3
Please help, not sure if something is wrong but it boots and works, just think its odd
Thanks
so what is the problem?
download mode didnt change the image shown
baseband is your MODEM
.....
not really sure what you think is wrong about it
I just wanted to make sure that it flashed correctly so I can try other GB roms, 1st I have to find a modem that works can not get or make calls
Thanks
that would be because of your modem. the samfirmware.com UCKF1 tar file includes a UCKF1 modem that will work for your setup.
Thanks never got the modem working that came with I reflashed just the modem to the correct one from Sammy I could nor hear people I called they could hear me but no sound heard from them tried to call me voicemail same thing. Gave up on official 2.3.3 kept bootloaders just flash another rom and now good. Also never got the H or the speed of hspda

Sometimes mobile networks don't like your phone, try to put it on airplane mode, and then back to normal mode, this has helped me before on similar cases.
Search for Perka's stash for modem files.
