Yesterday I got an S4 Active and as it featured Android version 4.2.2. I proceeded to update it OTA to 4.4.2. I did this with no SIM card inserted.
I then rooted the device and put my SIM card in it. But all I got was a "forbidden" icon on the notification bar. Before you even ask, I tried everything:
. Locked the device to 3G + 2G
. Locked the device to 3G only
. Locked the device to 2G only
I figured something must have killed the radio on this device during the update, but these were purely stock updates conducted via Samsung's own OTA system.
Today, at work, where network reception is VERY, VERY strong, I got 3/4 bars in 4G, 1/4 bar in 3G and 1/4 bar in 2G. Therefore, the radio on this device isn't killed, but network reception is very poor... Yes, I get full bars in any radio with any other phone with the same SIM card.
Unfortunately I haven't tested network reception with Android 4.2.2, just to make sure there was nothing wrong with the update.
Apart from sending the phone to repair... and before I start flashing unofficial CM builds and custom ROMS just for the sake of trying something... Where can I download the stock 4.2.2 files to use with Odin? Searched everywhere in the S4 Active forums and couldn't find it (or any other stock firmware for that matter, seems like only ATT&T versions were posted).
Thanks.

Hi there,
Try to wipe everything and to flash the stock Rom again. Me, too I had huge problems after I flashed the new stock the first time. Check in device info for you baseband. If the baseband version is not the one of the new 4.4.2 (NE5), then you definitely have to flash again.
I hope this helps. Best of luck and Godspeed.

Hi... Ive just registered to ask if you found a solution to this problem. I just bought a second hand s4 active and im having the same problem... I was going to roll back to stock 4.2.2 from updated stock 4.4.2 untill i read that it might brick the phone... I flashed cm11 last night but unfortunately still cant get any better then H+.... After many hours of research im getting desperate for some help... Otherwise the phone is in great condition and it would be very disapointing to have wasted my hard earned cash on a phone thats not even capable of downloading apps.....

I after my simcard broke on me i resorted to pauls nv flash to stock rom to get the new simcard at the shop.
in the shop the card gave the 3g notice and i thought all was well.
went home and tried to root but failed with superoneclick and then tried trymhansens one that worked and i installed CM9 again.
i found out today because off using wifi at home that my sim shows that im using 3g or H but that im not getting any traffic i am able to make and recieve calls and sms.
so i nvflashed again and went back to the shop to ask if it was a provider side problem.
they told me its software related.
so here's my question what should i do now
nvflash the paul 10b or flash the latest dutch released rom that i downloaded from here.
or is there an other way that i can get it back to stock without the change of breaking it further.
i dont have the cash at the moment to get it fixed or by a new phone, so i am willing to use it as is now and just have internet at hotspots or at home but would like to fix it .
also flashing requires that i close down all other programs on my pc to avoid corruption ?
thanks in advance
I don't know if any one of you have encountered this before but here's what happened
I installed a new rom and my network lock came back
so I installed galaxys_unlock + busy box to unlock my phone again.
the phone gets unlocked and signal does seemingly work.
now here's the problem.
my sim card + plan can go on internet. but for some reason when I try to go on the internet it doesn't work.
I clicked on mobile network on my phone and what shows up was this message of "insert SIM card to access network service"
which really confuses me because I can actually make phone calls.
If anyone has any solutions please let me know. I'll be more than happy to try it.
Is it even normal for my n7000 to lag so much and have so many problems? I feel like I spend more time trying to fix it than actually enjoying it.
1 Try restock to see if problem from rom side or hardware
2 Reinstall new rom, make sure file downloaded match md5 (might be corrupt dl) and follow instructions
3 Update latest proven stable kernel for that rom
4 If else fail try diff rom or restock
Good luck

What does restocking mean???
Restock = basically back to original official stock firmware of the rom (non moded ics/jb based).
Also good idea to state your rom that you use, carrier etc, hopefully other user of that same rom can guide you?
I think you need to put the settings for internet access back in

Hallo members,
I need help.
The cell phone of my daughter does not connect to the cell phone provider.
The history:
My daughter bought 6 mounts ago an Samsung Galaxy S3 mini. She made many pictures and videos , so that both memories of the phone was full. Than she made an official update vrom version 4.1.1 to 4.1.2. After some days she got problems to make a call. She cant make a call by her self, and also she cant got a call. If she tried to call, the got a notification, that the cell phone does't registred by provider. The phone was not rooted and has a stock room on those time.
My activities to solve this problem:
I read many threads about brocken IMEI, or problems with base band, but on this phone ist the IMEI ok, also baseband.
At first I made a factory reset.
Second I rooted this phone and flashed an custom room from maclaw. But this does't solwed my problem too.
If I start this phone, I got always an notification message in the top of display, that the cell phone provider does't selected. If I try to search one provider, I see in the phone all available provider on my geo position, included my cell phone provider. This search lasts very long, about 5 minuts. After the search is finished, I try to connect to my cell phone provider, but without occur. I get a message that the connection is not possible on this moment, and I have to connect later.
At last I try to change radio from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548453&page=2, but also without success.
Cell phone data:
Model: Samsung Galaxy S3 mini
Model-Number: GT-I8190

go to settings - more setting - mobile networks - netmodus - choose auto modus
the go to settings - more settings - mobile networks - third point (the one under data roaming) and choose your provider.
update your baseband to the latest one XXAMJ3 (flashing with CWM or TWRP)

HI, and sorry for my late answer.
I tried to configure like your description, but it dos'n help. Thank you anyway.
What I tried to make also. I installed a rooted stock rom, and update after that to a new radio XXAMJ3, but it does'n help to solve my problem to. I can't make a call, or send a SMS anyway.
Have somebody an idea to solve this problem?
The SIM card oft this cell phone works very fine. I tested it with another phone.
Exactly I am with the same problem. There is no issue about sim card or service providers. It is all about the phone. Please tell me the solution.

You don't have warranty?
---------- Post added at 03:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 PM ----------
You may try others baseband versions, If none of them fix the problem it's probably hardware related.
A simple way to do that is flashing different versions of stock firmware, just make sure it's for the right variant GT-I8910 N L T
Is there a fix?
Long story short...
My son's i8190n has been rooted for over 2 years. He has a new phone and I proceeded to update to a new rom. After that I think I messed up the modem/baseband somehow. The recovery is TWRP from maclaw.pl. At some point I even managed to soft brick this phone. I was able to use Odin 3.10 to install a stock rom unrooted.
I can:
* Install any rom and/or baseband
* Leave it unrooted or rooted
* Everything seems to work fine except...
I can't:
* Register the phone to my network
Tried different SIM(s) from different providers, but still no go.
Any suggestions?
First time poster, long time lurker, absolute phone novice.
I am using a i9305 (Hong Kong model, bought from Kogan Australia). I am based in Malaysia. Before all this I just popped my sim card in and utilised the stock ROMs. No issues with 4G or network whatsoever, but the phone got really slow after 4.3 to I decided to install CM11 using Heimdall.
Long story short, I absolutely screwed it up, and the phone showed the "software fail" screen. After scouring XDA and undertaking a number of fixes which didn't work (I'm scared this is what screwed my phone), I finally worked out to flash the Hong Kong stock 4.3 ROM using Odin,which brought my phone back to me. However, now I can only pick up Edge and barely get network reception. It is definitely not a sim issue as my sim in my wife's identical i9305 picks up 4G and network within a second of switching on.
I've searched every thread but cannot find an answer which works.I've flashed a whole bunch of modems but to no avail. I hope I haven't screwed my phone. Threads I've utilised include:

Have you tried wiping your cache in stock recovery (or whatever recovery you have, I can't really tell from your post)? I think you had problems with CM11 since you likely dirty flashed (no wipe of cache, data and system) and used Heimdall instead of flashing it through a custom recovery.
Possible answer

When you wipe the whole system to change to another rom, there is always a good chance that you can lose the modem during the process. Rom's may come with their on custom modem , but may not be fully compatible. try to download and flash with odin the modem of the stock rom once again. Your problem is related with the modem
Sorry for not responding, I was in Korea for work and left the bad phone back at home for the past 3 weeks.
I tried the clearing cache, but no good.
I will try flash the stock modem now (see below I notice the difference).
I noticed while syncing my google account that the IMEI on my phone had changed. Would this have anything to do with the issues I am facing? The below is my "before and after".

Stock modem didn't work.
Factory reset, odin flashed the stock software again (with the stock modem). Same issue.
Followed instructions on this page for missing IMEI: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...warning-guide-backup-restore-imei-nv-t1946915
Tried *#06# but still no IMEI.
Any solutions?
Tried everything I read in lyquidperfection's awesome mega-thread, but nothing works. still got a /01 when I type *#06# and in the 'about' section it now shows IMEI: Unknown.
Everything else works fine, just the internet is stuck on Edge.
so I tried a few more things today but to no avail.
The IMEI shows up as "Unknown" in the phone settings and when I do *#06* I get a /01 message.
However, when I check my IMEI against my Google account, I get the above number.
Any suggestions as how to fix?
as of today, new modem is being release. I9305XXUFNI3
info here
for modem u can read this
download links from page, or this link
im quite new, but i hope this helps.
Thanks. Didn't work, still Edge.
Going to try flash again.
You could try running a different country's stock ROM, or maybe seeing whether you get 4G while using a custom ROM (Liquidsmooth maybe).

1. Restore a working QCN backup (like this one) http://www.mediafire.com/download/4j...4_19-53-39.rar through the download tool of the QPST suite
2. Change the IMEI to match yours. <<<<. DON'T SKIP THIS STEP. There are many way to do this, i used RF NV manager. I can't be more specific since this topic is off-limits on XDA.
3. Perform a factory reset.
I can't test LTE connection, because where I live there is no coverage, but I'll try as soon as I can.

For absolute n00bs like me:
Step #1, use QPST Suite from this thread to install the QCN backup as per above: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...warning-guide-backup-restore-imei-nv-t1946915
Step #2, uninstall QPST, follow this thread (post #4): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32397-tutorial-imei-backup-nv-with-qpst-us-variants/
>> I didn't have the US version LTE phone, but it works on my LTE International
Step #3, go into recovery and wipe cache and factory reset.
>> *#06# should show your imei, and your 4G should be back. mine came back instantly two months of pain over!!!!!!!!
Hello developers.
I am amz. In dire need of your help.
Ok so i have a new mini
I turned it on n it would jus turn off if I used apps. I got a new battery. That stopped.
I then try use Internet it works only on G and E but if I go to 3g or Lte. .H will never come on. Can't call it says not registered on network only on the higher bands not gsm.. It's a 4G sim it works perfectly in my old s5 mini and signal is excellent here. I got new Internet settings too. G n E works why the he'll doesny the other bands register on network? Imei shows its not blocked either. I'm in the UK on EE. I cannot understand. I have all the OTA updates. Can u tell me if I can fix it by doing something thro service menus or anything also all sims do the same in this phone. I don't have a pc to change the rom. Could I do it through a external SD card.
Please I beg of you help.
Run the system updates, I had network issues until it was fully updated.
They are only patches, no new rom.
Reboot once each batch has completed until there are no more.
If that does not work, potentially you have a row version which uses a different band than us in the uk. Send it back.
I have the June 2015 update. I ran all updates. Still not working? I wanna install the cm12 rom m see if that'll fix it but kingroot not working. How do I see what band my phone is tryna connect in wcdma mode n what is required by the network? 4g don't work either?
I just Checked. My networked EE uses wcdma on 2100mhz. My phone is trying to connect. But it just says emerge calls only. Wth. What's wrong with it??
Can you post a screen of the About phone?
Should look identical to mine
Also, have you tried googling ee 4g settings s5 mini?
My network required me to get a 4g sim upgrade, before that it needed settings for hspda 3g which worked
I have a similar problem. Phone worked fine for couple of months, but since tuesday, it only works when I force it to GSM only.
G800FXXU1AOG2, nordic
(the thumbnail above equals to mine)
Maybe the network providers have changed 3g/4g details.
Check the website for correct details and update them in phone, if that doesn't work try a friends sim, if that doesn't work return phone
I had the problem aswell. I searched for the newest firmware in the internet (in my case I used the russian one). Then I extracted the modem file and made a tar file of it to flash it through odin. After I've done it everything worked fine.
If you want me to, I can do this tomorrow or saturday for u.
I flashed the original firmware (July 10, Nee), that did not help. What is the date of your firmware that works now?
I thinky june 2015.. I had the problem in February last year
It's me amz
Ok so basically I found out I need to flash my modem file or change the rom. But I have no PC to flash
.so I need a app which can root my phone or something without a computer. Kingroot didn't work. Anyone got any ideas on how I can do this? I've Google relentlessly. I need a developers help lol
I'll even pay them
