[Q] Constant FC over com.android.phone after CM6 or MIUI

Hello,
I need some help with my Milestone ( Cellcom Israel ).
After installing any custom ROM on milestone: CM6 (before the 6.1 & 6.1), MIUI or the FroyoMod whenever the phone stats it will:
FC every 2-5 seconds over com.android.phone (each time changing the signal to an bar + X on top of it ) and have no Signal (no network found).
I cannot go into mobile networks options (as each FC closes it automatically).
G.O.T 2.2.1 is running perfectly fine with no changes after install (installed the Italy Wind Rom).
Tried to change the Band from the OR to both the italy one + cellcom's (ISRAEL, which is my provided) but nothing helped.
I did manage to get it to work once (after removing the SIM, choosing Italy band, restarting and... i think thats it) but after another restart it got broken again.
I found a topic on this, stating that it might be a SIM problem and that replacing it will fix it, but its not much of an option (as there is nothing wrong with it to the provided).
Does anyone has a clue?
Thank you for your help,
Alon

My device has problems just like your MS, I asked this issue throughout the topic, but still do not have the correct answers.
someone said that the error was due to sim, change the sim will solve the problem but I think something was at fault in the development process. eg FroyoModv1. EclairMod, Ho! No! Froyomod, there are not errors. But MIUI, CM6.0, Sense .. phone.apk crash again.
hope someone will find out this error and help us.

try to do a full whipe clear everything and go back to your stock ROM, flash your version/region SBF with RSDlite from http://and-developers.com/sbf
and replace Simcard as stated

Well, i will try replacing the SIM, but im not sure that the provider will just approve of that.
I mean come'on, i can't tell them it doesnt work on CM6
as for the whole wipe, ammm, maybe ill try it later on today, in order to install CM6, i must install the GOT2.2.1 first ?

haha, just tell your provider that your sim has been lost and get another one.
I will do it in spare time .

Well this is weird.
Reinstalled MIUI, same problem
turned on and off airplane mode 10 times (while trying to fix), moved to 2g and other **** in the mobile network options, NADA.
Restarted, reinstalled ITALY BAND.
restart, everything ok.
had my fun with MIUI.
restart, bad again.
repeating the process of installing the italy band doesn't help anymore.

if you want totry, I'll tell you my experiences.
flash rom and switch on airplane mode, then restart. when the operating system booted, turn off airplane mode and everything is back to normal until you restart it again.

hmmm, that makes sense.
I probably left it on when I was experimenting with the airplane mode I'll give it a try later on ,damn this is annoying!
So this is probably a rom issue... I wonder why the sim card change fixes it.

"Call Failed MM #4" after stock system flash (XT860 Claro, Argentina)

Hello to everyone, i have a problem. My phone is XT860 (Milestone 3).
I've flashed the stock system for this phone (p2b_solana_umts_solana_claro_ar-user-2.3.6-5.5.1-112_SLU-56M-111106-release-keys-AmericaMovil-01.xml.zip), and I had some issues flashing one part (RSDLite failed to flash the boot.img).
But I could flash that part with moto-fastboot, and everything went fine.
After that, there was just a major issue, I couldn't make any call (nor receive), neither send or receive SMSs. When the phone boots up, a message appears: "Call failed MM #4". And when I try to make any call, it just "hangs up" (telling that Elapsed time was 00:00).
But I can use 3G and HSDPA without any problem.
The signal level is working fine, and in phone info, I've got good signal strength (-76 dbm).
I've tried the same SIM-Card in my old phone (Sony Ericsson W580, EPIC PHONE!) and it worked fine (Calls, SMS, Internet).
So I thought that sim was causing some problems in Milestone 3, and tried another SIM of the same carrier, and same issues appeared.
Other things that I've tried (no one fixed the problem):
* data wipe
* re-flash files via moto-fastboot (all of them)
* changed phone mode in "secret menu" (GSM, CDMA)
System version: 5.2.560.XT860.AmericaMovil.en.01
Baseband version: U_03.3B.00R
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-g9f70789 [email protected] #1
Compilation: 5.5.1-112_SLU-56M
What can I do? I think its the baseband, but thats a new subject for me.
Any help would be appreciated!

[Q] Flash ROM - SIM works for about 2 minutes.

I have a p925g, unlocked but originally from rogers canada. Using it on Koodo. It had a funky digitizer so i replaced it, (ghost touches only half screen responded). All good right? No. Phone works fine for about 2 minutes then loses connection. Does not get it back ever.
Try the simple stuff first, factory reset, Ensure sim is properly inserted, manual APN entry for koodo. reboot. no signal.
Use lg software, upgrade to 4.0.4, factory reset. Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Root using wpark method, install CWM, then xbsalls rom, xbsav8, factory reset, Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Change 5 different basebands, nothing, use getRiL, error everytime (RiL and baseband dont match).
Flash back to stock froyo redo stock bootloader etc.Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Upgrade back to stock ics, same thing
I'm sensing a pattern here. After about 90-120 seconds the signal DbA drops out and I lose all connection to the network no matter what ROM I use and it's the same thing every time. I get "reorganizing internal processes- please try again shortly" for about 30 seconds, then I can make and receive calls and mssgs, then it drops off and wont work again until i re-install the rom (any rom)
My question is, has anyone heard of this before? Could it be my SIM? Or hardware?
Thanks for any help.

managed to do getRiL while I had a signal. screenshot attached.

I have your s problem and dont know what i will do. If you can. Please help me/

i have the same problem with my p880

I had the same problem...
In my case, as far as i can tell is hardware related.
The connection (imei and baseband) returns only if i use brute force, and start to press the phone very hard near the edges, near the the sim. .But they disappear if i turn off or reset the phone...

Is hard to take pictures because this is not a tutorial, i press different parts every time i lost my imei, until it works. What i do is pressing really hard (even bending a little the phone) everything above the battery, especially the sim card holder. Sometimes take 5, 6 , 7 attempts until the signal returns. When the phone turns on wait a little, because takes a few minutes until the signal returns.

I have kind of the same problem, but with slight differences: if I restart the phone, most times than not I get the signal back (at least for a few more hours) and using Zaiben's RC17 ROM it manages to get the signal back by itself after a while, no reboot needed. What I've found to be a "hack/solution" for this problem is to use the app Tasker to change network mode from 3G to 2G when the screen turns off. It appears than while in 2G this problem doesn't present itself...

@sergiohinniger apparently your brute-force method kinda works for me as well.
My phone started losing IMEI and baseband version after I replaced the audio jack and "small" PCB (the one with USB - now I'm back with original one). I then re-chcecked all connectors and coaxial cable, but the issue persists.
I think it works after few reboots with pressure on the back, so I believe that most likely it's caused by some bad cennectors. I have no idea though what to do with that Help, anyone?

It's true, with Zaiben or any stock roms the signal returns far more easily and sometimes resists the reboot. But now i have a new problem, the mac address, even when the signal returns, stay 00:00:00:00:00:00. I can only fix with a mac spoof app. This problem doesn't happen when i use custom roms, but the 3g signal is harder the return.

Some news, bad news
I have asked some repairers and here is their answer:
It's baseband file problem, if you have original Nandroid backup then it might help otherwise you can say bye bye to it
Click to expand...

basically, the baseband/IMEI file is damaged due to flashing rom, if you dont have origianl file, there is noway to save it
Sorry for bring back a dead post, I think it's a good infomation for people

Need Help "LOST IMEI and Baseband Unkonwn"
I was using Euporia 5.0.1 on LG 4x
I received update notification and I downloaded Update.zip ( which included to 5.1)
By mistake i flashed the zip directly from CWM ( without Formatting any partition )
after restarting there was no IMEI
Following things I have tried
1) Trying to flash Original V20C KDZ. via LG Flash Tool. ( I think it checks for IMEI , and that's why stuck in between)
2) Use LG Software Update tool. ( also can't progress with IMEI)
3) Flashed Original V20c Flashable zip from CWM (But it didn't restored my IMEI)
4) Contacted LG Service Center, and They say You need to change whole Motherboard. ( I was Shocked to know that )
:crying:
If anybody went to same problem. and resolved .
Please Guide me.

A repairer told me that some rom might contain RIL or baseband bugs that accidentally **** up our IMEI partition/files, so if you have NANDroid backup then try to restore it

[I9295] Cellular not working

Hey guys,
in the beginning, sorry for my bad english (native german). I have a problem with my I9295 aka S4 Active. Since the update to 4.4.2, my phone gets thrown out of the network. Wlan and Bluetooth is fine. Now I flashed the official Samsung DOB4 firmware. Yes, I've downloaded the file multiple times, and the md5 sum was always right. After I flashed it, I was very happy because my cellular network was working again, I could make some calls, etc. But after 20 minutes, it started again. No network. Well, my IMEI was null, and to fix it I had to root. After rooting, my IMEI is there again (yes, the right one) and everything worked fine and was still working, up to yesterday. IMEI still there, baseband too, everything seems fine, but I can't get network. I have to reboot multiple times to get it working again, after that it's working maximum a day, after that, no network again . Atm, i've flashed CM12, but the error is still occuring. I'm very desperate, I hope somebody can help me.

I have a quite similar problem:
My I9295 loses service randomly. Happens quite often.
When I try to go to Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks I am told "No SIM ..."
SIM is in and had been active. Phono tells me I have network reception.
After reboot it works for an hour or 20 minutes or whatever it wants to.
Sometimes it reconnects after a while, sometimes not.
When I leave it on during night netx morning reconnect works only via reboot.
SIM reader had been replaced.
Problem persists with genuine 5.0.1, with this one: [ROM][Official Nightly CM12/Unofficial CM12.1][5.0/5.1.1] builds for I9295
and WizCyan ROM.
Any suggestions?
BTW I use a TWRP recovery

Possible reason explained here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56955843
Enjoy

Thanks for the hint.
Not sure if I get this. The problem was also there with the genuine Samsung ROM (lolipop)while the thread talks aout losing modem function after flashing custom ROM.
About previous I am not sure as I bought it used with 4.2.2 on it.
I updated to 4.4 and then 5 OTA, all genuine.
Only because the mobile kept on losing network I switched to custom ROM, but the problem persists.
At the moment I use the Pac-Man ROM 5.1.1 where it seems to be more stable.
Strange!

@augek
The linked thread isn't only about custom roms - you can end up with partly flashed baseband on genuine if you don't power off before download mode and flash using Odin.
Was the replacement job of SIM reader done by a qualified person?

Following your Suggestion i flashed the genuine lollipop with odin. Yes i switched of Prior to flashing.
And Yes the Person Who did the card reader Job is qualified.
Still the Problem persists.
So to me the question is if the Firmware (driver) is the Problem of my sim card. The sim i tried on my s4mini and doesn't cause Problems so far as far as i noticed.
P****es me of somehow.
