Hey guys ,
I installed the OTA ICS update.
I decided to try using some gsm sims i have stashed a away and i was screwing with the gsm band settings. I selected the automatic band selection. DO NOT DO THAT YOU WILL EFF UP THE RADIO!!!!!
Once i switched back to my verizon sim i could only connect to the LTE network. I was unable to connect to the cdma network and because of that i could not send or receive texts nor could i make or receive calls. Hard resets did not fix the issue. I had to switch to a 3g phone( samsung haven) white i waited for my replacement device to arrive :/
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Have you tried reflashing the radio through fast boot? Or, maybe reflashing the entire thing?

Hi,
I have a samsung Galaxy S, and it was horribly branded, so i tried wiping the software, 1st time I tried it, I got no signal at all (don't know why?!), forgot what software it was because its been deleted.
Since then, in an attempt to fix it I flashed I9000XWJS3 with Odin.
Now it shows I have signal but "Emergency Calls Only" is shown where the network operator should be. Why is this?
This is a used phone that i bought from ebay, can't remember wether I got signal on the branded OS. Could it be a faulty sim tray or a fault with the phone? Or it is software?
Any ideas on how to fix? Please Note: I am a UK resident, My network is o2.
any other details needed let me know.
ALSO: If I go into network settings and select o2 as the network, it tries to connect but just ends up saying "Unable to connect. Try later"
Does it show signal as well? What I mean is do you have full.signal and it still shows the tab emergency calls only?

Yes, phone still shows it has signal, just emergancy calls only
Ok. Under settings what is the baseband version? I had this issue when I was on darkys rom and the only way to fix it was a reboot. But that would happen several times a.day.
Recently I have changed to docs rom and cooked fairly stock Tom and instead of jpy modem I used jpe and haven't encountered.the problem since.
Also you.might want to clean the sim card contacts.

Dear Experts
I was having some weird issues with my XT862 flashed with XT883 china telecom ROM. So I thought about a factory reset. After reset my phone was up & asking for network activation, I managed to skip it but it is not accepting my CDMA-OMH sim card & says INVALID UIM.
If i go to network selection at first click it crashes & then reopen with 3 option of 2g/ 3g/ Automatic. Earlier I used to get 3 options as GSM Only/ CDMA Only/ Global (GSM/CDMA). Now when I insert CDMA Sim i get a green + sign instead of signal bar & error : INVALID UIM & if I insert a GSM sim I get a sim error icon & no signal bar icon & error : NO SERVICE (NO UIM CARD)
As i checked up *#*#2468#*#* doesn't work after OTA update to 57.1.60.
On dialing *#*#4636#*#* I get all the options & I select CDMA Only (PRL) but nothing happens.
Luckily I had safe strap installed & it was working even after factory reset & I am able to restore my backup.
I even tried copying build,prop & ril files from working backup to system & etc after factory reset, but nothing changed.
Please help

You need the build.prop from the AT&T/T-Mobile thread.

Still on XT883. Downloaded XT862 Verizon ROM one click flash (RSD Lite) but not Flashed till now.
Confused that shall I try MVP3 method or this one. I am afraid of loosing CDMA-OMH else If I had GSM I would have flashed.
But I am going to do it any way, just waiting for another CDMA phone in case after flash I am not able to configure CDMA OMH.
Which ROM you are using?
I'm running the 883 radio and build.prop and I don't think it will let you run CDMA and GSM at the same time.

I'm running that Rom on my xt862 and was under the impression that after flashing the build.prop and radio.img files that you can no longer use the cdma and global capabilities of the device.

Correct. My phone in theory should use a Verizon signal but when I switch over it doesn't find anything.

If I am not wrong , I have seen post on XDA about how to use Droid 3 on T Mobile & ATT after sim unlock & also switch back to Verizon if required. It may not work together but it can work that way. Please correct me.
So in theroy if I flash XT862 and I have to move back to XT883, should there be any problem?
When XT883 ROM works on GSM/CDMA together why XT862 can't be modified for that. (May be a silly question)
I didn't think it was. I dunno. I always have had to flash the 862 radio.

You may be able to make it work for you, I flashed my D3 strictly for use on AT&T because I dislike Verizon but they seem to have the best phones. Let me look around on google for you and if I find anything I'll send you a pm.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28888-cd...rom3d-v42beatstweaksxloudbassmod/page__st__70 this might help you with switching back to cdma and using it. I'm almost positive though that once you flash the radio and build files, that you won't be able to use the cdma side of the phone anymore.....unless you use the unbrick method thread on here and take everything back to stock.

You can flash the radio file from the 890 spb and get a regular build.prop easy.

I haven't been able to find a definitive answer to this question yet: Does it make a difference which JB ROM I flash on a SPH-P100 on which I am only using wifi? I have been using CM10 Nightlies, which are fine, but they do incorrectly identify the phone as Verizon. Basically, I'm interested in trying out some of the other ROMs.
Thanks!
if you aren't using data it won't matter. you won't be able to use the data anyway if your esn isn't registered to their network.
Just to be absolutely sure, would it make a difference if it's a GSM ROM?

I was replying to the person who want to flash the GSM ROM into his CDMA device.
I personally have never encountered anyone who has done that.
Are you saying you accidentally flashed a GSM rom into your CDMA?
As long as you can still go to download mode, you should try to flash a stock CDMA rom that has a pit file as well, using Odin repartition or use heimdall.

Well I Flashed the p1c (CDMA) CM10 nightly. while I'm connecting to my WiFi it shows verizon wireless on the status bar. and if I go to the status it shows Network (Verizon Wireless) ,signal strenght (akward -4dBm), Mobile Network type (CDMA - EvDo rev. A:6, Service state (In Service), Mobile Network state (Disconnected) I turn off the WiFi and it stays in Connecting for 10-15 secs and goes back to Disconnected.
I tried heimdall and I was able to put the zimage and recovery. when I add the pit file it grays out, so I tried some of the One Click restock and it allowed me to go back to my NAND backups on CM9 but it just doesnt want to connect.
any other suggestions??
THANKS A LOT for all your help!!!!

You probably just had to flash a radio to it using fastboot.

radio ????
Radio aka baseband aka modem, without it your phone will not get signal.
Just check for it in the Settings -> About tablet, under Baseband version. If it said unknown, then none is installed. If its there and you still don't get and signal, maybe something is wrong with the rom you are using. In anycase try following the guide to factory reset your device using fastboot.
Can somebody help me with this 4g problem?
This is what i did:
1.flashed custom ROM (worked like a charm,i did nandroid backup)
2.flashed other custom ROM (didnt like it so I restored the first one from nandroid)
3.everything went well except no imei and no baseband
4.reverted back to stock rom with odin
5.and here is the problem,no 4g signal at all. 3g/2g works fine.
If I post my build.prop can somebody tell me whats wrong?
I have tried to put my sim card in other phone and it works but not in my phone.
Did you enable 4G in Settings?
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes, I did...network mode is set to LTE
Is there a test that I can use to test is it a software or hardware issue?
Maybe an issue of Stock rom you flashed using odin.. Which one exactly have yoi flashed? What modem you have now? And finally, is your S3 i9305 or some i9305T variant?
Check this out:
Typ *#*#4636#*#* and goto Netinformation, then you will find a special-setup for the 2G 3G & 4G.
Sorry about my english. Cause i am german.

Thanks for your replies,I flashed stock german 4.4.4 from sammobile.It worked very good about 2 months.
I think that modem is xxufoa1 and version of phone is i9305 lte international.
If somebody could help me with this issue,I would appreciate that.But no hurries,I got new playmate S6 edge...
try doing a complete wipe of data and cache, then flash stock rom again to see if problem persists
I have tried many times but no help...
Hey, try flashing the parambin.zip file (look for it on google related to s3 lte, you'll find it easily). Another thing to try is just wait with the phone turned on with a valid SIM. I found out that sometimes it delayed a lot to get signal, specially when changing SIM carriers on another country. After a while waiting it finally succeeded (probably unrelated but I also saw on the catlog entries about upgrading the sahara file of the qualcomm chip -the modem-).
