[Q] Flash ROM - SIM works for about 2 minutes. - LG Thrill 4G

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.

[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.
im puzzeled @[email protected]
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.

Flashed kdz with lg software, imei and boot problems.. Help please

. I flashed the KZ file with lg update software as explained in the XDA thread but I could not get the process to work right. My phone kept disconnecting at 28% and it would not turn on no matter what I did. It would only make a short vibrate as if it was turning on, and the computer would notice it but only for a short time. And never once did a light on the screen, or LG logo, or anything at all ever appear.
I figured I had really screwed it up, but when I plugged it into the wall it booted up perfectly. All my data was in tact and the rom i had flashed through cwm was still there, not the kdz file that I flashed with the lg software.. I noticed that my sim card did not come up as being in the phone at all. I looked in system setting status and noticed that all info related to my imei said unknown. I opened up the mfg app (277634#*# from the phone app).. Under "version info" then "factory version" my phone now says xmm6260.. It always used to say p925..etc... Even after flashing the zip to debrand from at&t this never changed from p925 even when every other aspect of my phone has.. I was hoping maybe once I put in an activated sim card everything would be fine and my phone would be unlocked which is why i flashed through lg software.. But seeing as how other people are having this similar issue and their phones not seeing the sim card, well im looking for some advice.. Should I try and re flash kdz file through lg software again? if i do, im going to do it on my XP computer this time, not Windows 7..
Just wanted to add that I did try wiping data and cache from cm and no dice.. Root and CMW work fine but no matter what I do, if my phone is turned off, i cannot boot up or boot to cwm or boot at all unless i plug the phone into a wall carger and then once its on it stays on and i can unlug.. SORRY ABOUT THE LONG POST, THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP..
I would reflash CWR first and foremost, then try to flash back to stock.
No IMEI/GSM Radio
Hi, were you able to fix your problem? If so, could you please give me a hand, I have same problem.
Im attaching a couple of screen shots, one where you can see that IMEI is not shown and other is where you see the phone number thats on the SIM but has a sign like if no SIM were inserted.
Using the KDZ detects the IMEI, but after flashing it doesnt show up on phone.
Thanks
Took my phone to a cellphone shop and they fixed it. Everything is back to stock and working normal.
Hi ive got the same problem, did you fix it?
Yes, my phone is working perfect at stock. Im going to wait for GB ir ICS with a working 850MHz baseband.

Phone doesn't read my SIM

I have been using CM11 (14-03-2014 I believe), without major problems until yesterday. Sometimes my phone seemed to disconnect from my SIM and I had to re-enter my pin code to reconnect to my operators network. But as of yesterday my device doesn't seem to recognize the SIM card, It doesn't ask for a code at all and can't make any connection whatsoever. I didn't change a thing, this problem started out of the blue.
I wiped cache and dalvik, updated to the latest CM nightly (08-05) but that didn't make any difference. In other threads I read about the baseband that might need an update, but I can't check which version I have now because when I try to enter the hidden menu I get the no network connection error. The strange thing is that CM11 has worked with (I guess) the stock baseband.
Is my phone tripping or could it be that my SIM card is broken?
Help and thoughts will be very much appreciated
Try it on stock to be sure about it.
After some searching I found a phone that could fit a regular SIM card, a Blackberry 9900. My SIM worked perfect in this phone, so that is not the problem.
I Also did a complete wipe and installed a stable version of CM 10.1.3, but that didn't seem to help. I hoped that a downgrade would have done the trick. I might try a ICS ROM or the stock firmware, but I kind of lost hope and i'm starting to think this problem is hardware related in stead of software. I'll report back with results on stock firmware and the ICS ROM.
How can I make sure the SIM reader in my phone is working properly?
Sorry for double posting, but I got an update:
SIM wasn't working with ICS so I decided to go back to the stock ROM. However, when I tried to flash V20B.kdz with KDZ_FW_UPD, the program got stuck at wParam=2010 and iParam=210. The phone is now stuck in S/W Update mode, and I haven't found a way to restore it yet. I will argue a little more with my phone when I get back from work, I'll open a new thread on how to unbrick when I can't do it myself.

I have the same problem, and exactly the same error at reflash.
Dead end. Buy a new phone .
I tried to flash it about 80 times. One guy from a gsm repair has a bit luck and make it work at the first, but then, when he wanted to repair my imei, the phone stucked again in S/W Upgrade.

[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.

N4 unable to connect to network..Help please!

Hey everyone, so I just recently upgraded my Note 4 from KK to LP, but during the process, I had to flash the Baseband and modem before I flashed the LP ROM. I then flashed the ROM after I did that, and ended up with no network... I'm still able to make calls ONLY when I'm connected and close enough to the WiFi, texting is still fine I believe. So then I tried going through the process of downgrading to see if that would relieve the problem of my network issue, but it still isn't even working. Even after doing the process in reverse, flashing the baseband and modem before flashing my ROM.
I'd like to add that I did take apart my phone because my screen needed replacing, so I took apart my phone to see if I made my signal cables loose, they were, but then I popped them back in again, turned on my phone to see if that was the issue, and it still doesn't work, as well as my hardware back button doesn't work anymore so I have been using a nav bar to access my multi-window app.
I have tried flipping my signal cables, going from LP to KK, KK to LP, and reinstalling the firmware...
Edit: Whenever I factory reset in the stock recovery, I get an " Error:failed to mount /preload (no such file or directory)
Have you odin'd to stock lollipop?
You need to Odin stock firmware from Samsung, this will fix what you borked.
Then you can try again.

I've tried 2 fresh downloads of the stock firmware and it hasn't worked, but I will just download the file straight from Samsung this time to see if that could fix the problem. My new signal antennas I ordered from ebay are on the way and should arrive tomorrow. I'll then try that if this troubleshoot doesn't work because I don't have any 4gLte network at all, and it only pops up randomly and at certain areas I drive. I'm constantly moving and I could never have a stable connection, no calls, no text messages till I'm connected to the wifi:crying:
Edit #2: So I have installed new signal cables, and still not getting any 4G/LTE Network. I have constantly checked on my wires to see if it does anything to the network, but it doesn't. Still able to make calls on Wi-Fi only ): And I have used Odin to try and revert back to stock fully and no luck..
