[q] no base band after flashing

Hello every body,
I have a little big problem, i flashed my samsung galaxy S with I900XWJM5 from samsung firmwares.com
And after flashing my phone loose his BASE BAND so i can not call anymore, i inserted my simcard but the phone don't detect it.
I checked phone information and discovered that BASE BAND VERSION was " unknown " !!!
I tried to flash back to original firmware the I9000JF3 but same thing. I tried to flash only the MODEM part but still samething.
I called samsung technical and they told me to check in ODIN the case " Re partition " and flash again. But in Odin when i cheked the case " repartion" the flash hangs on " don't plug off target "
I tried to flash with a new computer under win xp, but same thing i can not do " repartion " with Odin
My mobile is not simlocked when i bought it, is my phone network dead ? PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ?

Did you try updating the firmware through Kites? Also, try flashing it again with ODIN, after selecting all the 3 files - modem, code and csc.

You need to try with "Re-partition." until it works.
Also make sure you are using a 512.pit file.

and do not forget to take ur battery off and put it back before you try to run ODIN...

You would have to do that to remove the SIM anyway.
Make sure you remove SIM and SDCARD.

Unrelated, but what is the reason for needing to remove the simcard (I have never done so)

Thank you every body for your help
befor this problem i use to flash with Odin 3 firmwares and had no problem.
But now i can not tick the case " Re partition " to solve the problem. I called samsung technical service and they told me to do a full " Re partition " and flash again.
The problem now is that i can't do repartition, because the flash hangs at " don't take off target" and nothing happen.
may be the phone had serious problem with memory, i had to sent back to samsung after service .
Thank you all

I have the same problem. I have flashed many times with different firmware versions, but it didn't work. My phone couldn't attach network, I couldn't see neither IMEI nor Baseband version.

try just flashing the modem file until it works
the modem file is what controls the radios

During the flash it may take the SIM as part of the hardware and ignore it once it's done flashing.
You'll have to reflash without the SIM to get it to work again.
It's not a real issue, but if you are failing with Odin I highly recommend sticking to those recommendations.

Also remove all usb devices other then phone, mouse and keyboard. Had heaps of flashing problems due to external hhds sucking power while flashing. Now works 90% of time for me. Next thing you do is find a xp box and try again.

I've got the same problem. I am able to get JM8/JM4 (Kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #2), and then whenever I try to go Froyo (JPM or JP6) I always end up with baseband unknown I did remove the sdcard and sim card - still the same thing, is there any solution to that thing ?

[Q] Mobile Network State "Disconnected".

After rooting my LG Optimus 2X and installing CM7 as directed via the instructions my phone failed to bot up the new rom correctly, it just froze at the CM7 intro startup video of the blue character. I then tried to implement the recovery of the backup I made before installing the rom through rom manager in the boot recovry screen, but after applying the recovery to the original stock rom that too also froze at the start up screen so I found some instructions to then take out the battery and connect to a PC via USB which I then had to download and reinstall stock firmware which was successful and the phone is fully operational. I can produce and recieve calls/sms/etc but it is unable to connect to to any network to enable me internet access even though it worked an hour before ****ing my phone up in the the "about phone" info it says "Not Roaming" and Mobile Network State "Disconnected". even with full bars. Could this be cause by installing stock firmware from a different country or firmware intended for a locked phone?
I am with 3(three) in Australia on a $49 Plan but bought the phone outright/unlocked from an authorized dealer.
Any help and insight would be great. Cheers.

You could try to get the newest Australia one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035041
And to it the SmartFlash way, I have not had any problems with either NVFlash or smartflash.

Ok thanks for that. I will definatley try it and see how it goes.

[Q] Galaxy Tab (Australia-Optus) Flash failed, now I have no IMEI

Hi all, I have messed up my Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 (Aus-Optus-CDMA) trying to flash. I managed to get it going on the following FROYO.XXJME Version 2.2 Kernel 2.6.32.9 rootatSEI-28 #1
Unfortunately I did not do a full backup!
My problem is now,
1/ No imei shown
2/ No serial number shown
3/ Not recognize my sim card
4/ Tab reboots regularly
Have done the factory reset however I am not sure if due to my flashing is it the original rom?
I have the imei written but cannot get the Tab to find it, thus cannot connect to Kies to get the samsung updates which would fix things, "I think".
Can anyone help
Thanks

Did you flash with ODIN?
Did you get an error message?
Have you tried re-flashing to a stock ROM?
You should read through the following thread before flashing anything else
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071&highlight=no+imei+after+flash
And you are correct in assuming that a factory reset would only re flash the ROM you "replaced" your stock ROM with.
Also remember that using the SEARCH button usually will get you a lot more answers than just waiting on a reply here.

Did you unlock the tab first, no network lock, no sim lock... If you didn't this may explain whats happened. Don't know how you're gonna fix though....
Your Gtab is also NOT a CDMA tab, its GSM as you use a sim card... You may have bricked it if you flashed a CDMA rom.... Lucky if it starts up at all...
You need to tell us more info, what rom you flashed, how you flashed it - ODIN, Heimdall , Kies or just by pure magic. Then you might get more help....

the /efs folder contains all information/numbers about your gt including IME, mac address, bluetooth,etc.. It may have been deleted yet there should be a bak file inside the folder. since you are able to boot as you mentioned then you can still go into download mode and reflash a ROM?

Hi "theREDlegion" & thanks for your time.
Yes I did flash with Odin.
I got a red FAIL in Odin & an error message, trying to remember what it said exactly.
I am not sure which is the correct ROM to use for me here in Australia, CSC file & Pit etc, I'm kinda new to this stuff.......as you guessed!
I rooted the Tab with z4root, then used the repair nv_data to unlock the network which was succesful, so it said by entering the code.
So will the "Gingerbread" ROM work on my Tab?
I tried P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar which failed.
Thanks again.

Hi ultramag69, appreciate your help.
I was installing a game when my Tab froze. No matter what I did I could not get it to respond. This is why I thought lets try & install Gingerbread. I managed to get it connected to the PC, however I am not sure if I did as you said "sim unlock". I did the network unlock. My Tab runs okay now but will loop boot when idol for 30 sec. I still whish to do Gingerbread if it is possible, or "overcome"
Thanks again.

Hi bongski55, thanks for your assisstance.
I have the backup of the efs & the files in it are dated 27/10/2010 which would indicate they are the originals. I have replaced the new efs files with these but still no change.
Not sure which file is the imei info though.
Here is my plan,
1/ Do factory reset - this will allow me to reroot
2/ Root the Tab & unlock network, learn how to unlock sim?
3/ Remove SD & SIM cards.
4/ Use Odin to flash with Gingerbread, I think I have the right ROM!
Wot u think!!!!!!!!!

Is your bootloader safe? Do you know what your original firmware version was ?
edit for my english: is "was" at the good place in the second sentence?

You've tried chainfire's safe rom, have you checked out the overcome thread, there's a safe rom you can install through ODIN there too... Might work. Also, do a search for Telstra rom, might take back to stock Froyo but with all the Telstra bloatware, I started on this.
After you take back to Froyo stock you can try again for GB. Can't say if this will work though as you have an Optus tab, mine was Telstra from the start...
Good luck...

Without restoring the efs folder CORRECTLY. All your efforts are futile. Follow this thread to restore /efs folder: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859914. Reboot your phone, Charge it and try flashing a stock ROM.

Some very helpful information has been posted here, thanks to the very helpful members of xda.
If I was in your shoes I would do the following:
1) Follow the link provided by DarkPal in post 10, complete the steps necessary to restore the efs folder.
2) Follow the link I provided in post 2 and confirm your bootloaders and take necessary actions to patch if necessary.
3) Your device (on Optus) should be WCDMA/GSM. I would go over the OVERCOME thread and follow instructions on flashing a stock safe rom and attempt to flash the OVERCOME rom. It is important to follow the instructions step by step for a successful flash. The OVERCOME guide is very detailed, if you follow it correctly you should not have any issues with the flash.
Do post back your results and good luck.

Thanks for your help so far,
I have been able to find the backup of my efs/ which was created during unlock process.
Thank god.........I have now done this, patched bootloader.
1/ Used Overcome safe rom & flashed
2/ Flashed to Overcome "Jupiter" v3.3.0 & changed file system to ext4
3/ restored efs/
4/ My imei is now back to original....Yippee....also is my serial number.
Now when I boot it gives me full bars of service & Yes Optus on the screen..Great!
But I still canNOT connect. My Wifi works fine.
I notice my IMEI SV is now 05 but was originally 01.
I am not sure how to see what csc I have & don't know if it matters?
Any suggestions....
Cheers

Google "optus apn settings" and check yours (settings, wireless network, apn).
Check if wireless mode is auto.
What is your baseband (modem version)?
Because you see optus on your screen, your voice service is fine, but no data connection means your apn values are incorrect or missing.

Good morning all, well I would like to thank everyone on this forum, particularly those who have promptly responded to my questions.
I am glad to say that after 3 days of stress I have finally got my Galaxy Tab back on the Optus Australia internet service, I had to change the APN from Optus (Internet) to Optus (connectcap) in the Access Point Names & also at the bottom of those settings I had to select Internet. The connectcap option is not there by default, you have to add a new APN & choose these settings. My sim card is a data plan only.
So I now have my Tab running Overcome Jupiter, thanks guys, love your work, on the ext4 file system and already it is noticably faster.
Now......probably a good time to do a proper backup......yep I'm learning!
So thanks again everyone.

No Sim Detected LG Optimus 2x :(

Hi
My phone suddenly stopped detecting all sim cards ( I have tried various working sims ).
It is running CM 7.2 and has been running cm 7.2 for a few months with no problems.
Today I took out the sim and put it back in to reboot, all was fine. I went to shower, came back and the sim suddenly stopped being detected.
I have tried to google but it seems most problems are to do with flashing a new rom and having the sim not work, my case is that the rom has been the same for a few months.
I have tried to flash different roms and I still have the same problem. I have a gut feeling it is the hardware that reads the sim that is faulty.
I have read something about a baseband, I dont know what that is but if it helps, when i go to the settings and click on 'about phone'
It says there is a baseband and it is version something. There are no question marks or anything like that.
I appreciate the help and would love some more troubleshooting suggestions.
The worst case scenario is unrooting it, flashing stock rom and send it back to warranty. I actually don't know how to do that so if anyone has a guide lying around please link me on that.

I have similar problem with new boot loader.
Download getril app from play store and see if your baseband is OK. If not, download and flash matching baseband from development thread. You will loose all personal data and your apps after flashing. Then download new ril with getril and reboot. Good luck...
This method was no helpful for me. Maybe you will have better luck.

Thanks for the reply,
When I first opened getril, it said RIL not found, I did not have one. I downloaded one and then it said RIL does not match. I then redid it on another firmware and it now says RIL and Baseband matches. Is this enough? The only weird thing is the baseband has canada and europe in it. I am from Australia. How do i tell which baseband/ril I need?

You can flash as much as you want, none of that will help. Had same issue once, flashed almost everything there was through SmartFlash, NVflash and all of that. This is what you need to do:
First, remove the battery from your phone. Write down the IMEI. Now boot up your phone, write *#06# and see if the IMEI that pops up is the same as the one you saw behind the battery. If not, let us know and I'll hand you the solution, but first check if the IMEI matches.

I checked the IMEI and it matches.
I have some extra information if it helps, when I choose a random RIL from getril, the battery might become a ? mark and the sim card not detected error doesnt show anymore, however when I put it back to the original RIL, my battery bar starts showing the 'power left' and also the sim not detecting error shows again.

I get the SIM Toolkit Incompatible Handset error and then whether I press OK or Cancel, shortly after I lose mobile network access. I've been trying all manner of different things, Smart Flashing, NVflashing, changing basebands, Rils, you name it.
I'm currently on the V30B root ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064793 and the Ril matches the baseband from that ROM, but that hasn't helped either. So I went and check the in phone and behind battery IMEI and they are different! I'd love to hear what your solution to this is!

My problem was no service and IMEI unknown... Never managed to solve it. Reverted to old bootloader and problem solved.

IMEI Solution
If IMEI does NOT match, you will need to do this:
Check if you can get in a menu by typing 1809#*990#. If you can't, you will need to use a GB ROM (I remember I used Homero's GB NVFlash as I was on ICS bootloader and couldn't get access to it on ICS). Follow these steps if you are sure you can get into the menu:
1) Connect your phone by USB.
2) Enter 1809#*990# in dialer.
3) Select Port Setting -> Select CP USB
4) Install a program called Hyperterminal on your PC and open it. In COM settings select same port as in device manager -> LGE Mobile USB Seial Port (should be 115200)
5) Type at%imei and it should respond by saying OK
6) Now type at%imei and it should now display your current IMEI number.
7) Type at%imei=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX where X is your original IMEI number.
8) Reset phone.
You might have to reboot your phone after step 3. But see if it works without.

I have been thinking that this is a hardware issue, I have not changed a single setting/rom/baseband at all, the sim just wasnt detecting when I came back to my phone. The rom and settings were the same for a number of months.
I am now going to give it in to warranty, however it only has 1 month left. I have tried to install the stock firmware but with no luck..
I found a rom to flash for my region, it is a zip file but when I try flash it with Clockworkmod, it says installation aborted....
Shouldnt I be able to flash the roms with CWM? The file is a zip file just like the CM7.2 rom I flashed. Do I need nvflash instead? I found the rom here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852112 (the download links were removed so I googled the exact same rom)
I was also told that if I just use the LG update tool, it sohuld automatically update the phone to stock firmware AND unroot it, only that the update tool gives me an error. Whats the best approach guys?? I need to get this fixed before my warranty goes.

Your imei should not show in settings, it should show in the back of your battery and when you dial : *#06# into the phone (where you dial numbers for calls).
Cant help you with baseband.
OP here, I am trying to unroot my phone and put stock firmware to get warranty to fix the simcard reader ( i believe it is a hardware issue ).
If I use nvflash and flash any stock firmware I can find on the internet, will that be OK? I have a feeling each region of optimus 2x has slight differences in firmware, eg swedish stock roms and australian stock roms may differ in the default applications etc.
Will it be ok to just install any kind of stock rom for my warranty? Help would be appreciated my warranty is running out in less than a month now.
I also tried to flash stock firmware with CMW, it didnt work. I am about to try NVflash, so I went into greater detail in page 1 but no one replied yet. If you guys know please help. I am more familiar with CMW than NVflash. I have not used NVflash yet.

hahah after 2 sleeples nights i menage to restore my sim to be recognize ,whit this metod,.. NFlash rulles ))

After I finish typing in 1809#*990# in dialer, nothing happens. If I press the green phone handset icon to dial that number it comes up with an error message of "Mobile network not available".
Any further advice? Thanks.

Okay, I failed at reading comprehension – it has to be an LG Gingerbread ROM for this code to work, NOT a CM-based one!
Trying one from somewhere-I-cannot-link-to-yet

Success! Once I was back on the original stock LG Gingerbread ROM, I could reset the IMEI and make/receive calls again using this method. Thank you very much!
Now all flashed back onto a nice "working" nightly CM10.1 and a very happy little device.
Many thanks all.

Hi,
Anyone have a working link to "progmaq-default-cm-10-20121105 ". My Optimus 2x has been bricked as well, and can't find any other version of this on Google unfortunately
Appreciate all help.

Thanks guys, but can you point in the right direction (with flashing the stock ROM)? Like, where do I find it and stuff...
(I don't know how I managed to root my phone without breaking it in the first place xD)

I've writed how to reflash stock firmware in this thread, you can follow up to the sixth step, and if you are interested also to root and CoCore kernel go up to tenth step (after this reboot device)
EDIT: You don't need "Re-Partition" option in Odin

No SIM card (but network OK 4 bars)
Hi,
I have a 9070P (NFC) simlocked to Orange France.
I've got the very same "no SIM card" issue after upgrading to JB via Odin (3.07) (tar downloaded from samfirmware).
Network is OK (4 bars), but "no SIM card". The SIM works fine in any other phone I have tested + inserting a SIM from a different operator does not trigger the "enter unlock code" popup at startup.
My IMEI is OK and has always been (*#06#).
Note : from the many posts I've read, it is *not* stored in /efs on this phone but could be stored in CSPSA partition.
Note : I've always flashed the *right* firmwares for I9070P (not I9070).
What I have tried so far :
* restock to GB with this tutorial : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2247604
--> No SIM card
* then flashed Orange's stock firmware with Odin from samfirmware
--> No SIM card
* played a bit lot with "secret code" *#197328640# menus. It happened once that I recovered the SIM card + data connexion then it failed again after next boot. So I'm pretty sure the pb *is* software.
It's a pitty I have backed up my "efs", and "CSPSA" partitions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145464) after the pb occured...
I have rooted the phone, dumped and tried to analyse modem/RIL logs, but did not manage to spot the pb...
I'm used to linux, flashing and so on but not that much of Android intricaces, so if anybody is willing to help me finding the solution I'd pay him/her a bear (or two)
Questions : does anybody know how to check CSPSA partitions ? It's content might have been damaged during flashes. As I have repartitioned when downgrading, partition size should be OK, but as I have read somewhere in xda that that partition content might not be replaced when flashing a tar.md5 that contain a cspsa image (which is the case in the ROM flashed to downgrade) because it contains the IMEI encrypted.
-> is there a way to mount and explore it or to extract the content of a cspsa image from a ROM (I've tried to mount it as ext4: failure)?
Thanks in advance !

What version of Jelly Bean you have flashed the first time?

Hi!
It was this one : Germany (T-Mobile) I9070PXXLPJ grabbed from Samfirmare (I doubled checked it was the one for the "P" version)
Any known pb with those JB upgrades?

I don't know if this version has the simlock, maybe your phone doesn't recognize sim card because you have updated with Odin from a simlocked GB to a non-simlocked JB or with simlock from another carrier

Hm, did you try to do factory reset? People had problems with signal if they do not do it after GB>JB.

I restocked to original ROM : still no Sim card + if the pb was simlock, it would ask for unlock code whereas it just say "no SIM card".

Yes, I did factory resets, cache wipes, dalvik cache erasure multiple times (like 20) : no dice.
Does anybody know how to activate and analyse modem and RIL logs (and manage debug level) ? I think it would help find the root cause faster than "trial and error" + decrease the risk of bricking.

Right, as you said maybe the problem is really the CSPSA because simlock infos are stored in this partition, seems that there is no way to unpack or to see the files contained in it, if you try to reflash Jelly Bean using repartition?

- Reflash Jelly Bean with repartion : already done without success + JB ROMs (I've seen until now) do not contain CSPSA partition.
But my problem is not SIM lock, it's "no SIM" at all, as I already said, if it was a Sim lock issue, I would have the "insert unlock code" dialog at logon.
- For reference : I've found the sources for CSPSA Android manager and desktop tools at : download.meego.com/live/home:/imppa/Trunk/src/[/url] (it's from the Meego project)
I think it would enable to read/write from/to CSPSA partition properly (not peeking/poking blindly).
- For now, I'm trying to analyse "adb logcat -b radio", but lots off errors seem to but "normal", I can hardly identify which ones are relevant.
Anybody reading radio logcat fluently ?

Guys, could any of you backup the 3 following partitions of their I9070P and post them somewhere to me so that I can try to restore them on my device to see if it sorts out my problems ?

Thanks in advance !

Bump !
Nobody willing to help me ?
Tried installing CM10.1: still "no SIM"

Hi Zakaria !
thanks for your answer.
This solution works if you have flashed a "I9070" ROM on a "I9070P". But I never did that, I have always flashed "P" ROMs.
I have checked the MD5sum of the files in my "tee" folder, they are (as expected) the same as the ones into the .zip you are recommending me (I've checked the rights too : everything is OK).
Given what I see in the radio logs (logcat -b radio), the problem appears to be under the RIL layer: modem seems OK but it replies that the SIM is "absent" when queried. It could be a hardware problem to, but as it worked well before, I don't think so.
I would really like to overwrite my CSPSA, modemFS and EFS partitions from a working I9070P to see if it would solve the pb (I've made backups of mine in the current "non working" state).
I'm just expecting someone to dump and send them to me...
Have a nice day.

We do not have much P ROMs, maybe just one. What P ROM you flashed?

I've always flashed stock ROMs from SamMobile. There are dozens of them.
As explained in a my first post in this thread, I have tried to upgrade to JB (German (T-Mobile) I9070PXXLPJ) : this is when appeared the "no SIM" problem.
Then I went back to GB (tutorial posted in xda ref. given in my 1st post) and then applied stock ROM from my Carrier: stil no SIM. (SIM card is OK in any other phone, and tried at least 3 other SIM cards from my carrier, -my phone is still SIM locked to it: no SIM).
Even if I use a SIM card from another carrier, I don't get the "Enter unlock code" popup.
If I remove any of those SIM while phone is on, I don't get the "SIM removed: reboot" popup.
I have even flashed the latest nightly CM10.1 for the I9070P.
I can past radio logcats if anybody want to have a look at it...
