What do you mean with "foolish play with root permissions" ? Did you root your phone with one of these suspicious tools ?
In this case it could be bricked.

I had unlock bootloader,rooted my moto g 2014,flash twrp latest version, flash more tha10 roms , I want to check the permissions in root folder, unknowingly change some permissions ,but I can't remember what I'd done.then no sim,after reading in xda I triedto flash my firmwarenow, but everything work fine except no sim cards.no mobile network.WiFi working.I love this phone .I think the files for sim card connectivity will be the answer,but I don't know what files/folders?

Flash 1068 modem files
Sent from my Moto G

I'd tried that also but no benefit , but I will try again today, any other choices?

Did you check how your APNs were configured?

the phone not called, there is no network .. does not know the sim .. does not matter APNs.. no sim no apn
I'm not sure to understand, does your phone shows "SIM unfound" or a similar message?
If yes, double check that your SIM card is properly installed.
You can also check that another SIM card works on your phone.
I already saw some strange behavior with a defective SIM.
If not, the problem source can be you APN configuration or a bad flash.
Why do you want to downgrade to ICS?
This is very risky, you may brick your phone.

i have downgrade the phone to ics.. and here are the photos of the problem, the phone will not connect to GSM, and does not recognize the sim, and when I check with * # 06 # there is no imei
Ok, downgrading has probably messed up a few things.
I'm not confident with all this, I just can advice you to check those posts:

Not to blame you and no offense, but downgrading from JB to ICS is a really bad idea.

SimLock Solution For All 4.3 users

Hello to you all
I would like to show all of you 4.3 users the solution "elvisypi" gave me in my private mail and finally i succeed to unlock my device.
So all of us know that sprint or google changed the way HtcOMADM works and we can't use the original system for unlocking our device.
So here is the solution that "elvisypi" gave me :
1. Download the "Stock with goodies 4.3 ROM". Don't flash it wet. (link : http://www.mediafire.com/?9y21d2wlszh6d6c )
2, With an archive viewer like winzip open the ROM.zip and go to /system/app
3. replace 2 apps which I have attached: HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_SPCS.apk and HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk. Just drag and drop and replace.
4. Finally flash the ROM.
5. Install the HTCOneSIMUnlockHelper and follow the onscreen instructions.
This system works 100% and this way you can be on 4.3 rom and still have an unlock GSM sprint device.
again , many thanks to "elvisypi" for his great support
sim unlock
Hope it does
downloading....

I've followed your directions, using the ROM you provided (only difference being flashing the root-fix) and I get vDM errors every time I boot and the app says it's unlocked but my Tmobile SIM gets no signal. Is there any other way i can check if my phone's unlocked?

Yes I have, it says preparing SIM card but I never get any bars. I read in another thread that I need to be on an older radio in order for Tmobile to work. And for that I'll need s-off which I can't. Sigh.

It didnt work for me?
I did exactly what you said an When the phone starts up it says unfortunately ui has stop working an it keeps popping up an i cant do anything with my phone
Thank you for this already pressed the Thank you button also
i was getting annoyed that i couldnt find the files before i found this thread
HTC ONE
I did everthing s-off....flashed to the old radio baseband....tried everything still havent got any signal....who know what a problem?
The only thing is that I've flashed my sprint htc one to the Straight talk. Could it cause a problem?
I am also trying to unlock for T-Mobile. Running into the same issues as others. I was reading a thread where someone was apparently using it on T-Mobile, and PMed them on how exactly they did it but never got a response.
Would love to hear if anyone has it working on T-Mobile
This works. :victory:
Only need to extract, modify and zip again.
Flash with TWRP.
And everything is working normally, no need to reinstall or root, or whatever.
The only problem is that every time I turn on the phone, I get the error message VDM, but it disappears instantly, without stopping or forcing any application.
I live outside the U.S., and continues to operate all perfect with SIMUnlockerHelper. :fingers-crossed:
My device: Sprint Htc one = Unlockboot, TWRP, SIMUnlocker Helper, Root, and the rom on the top of the post. (benny's 4.3 LOL)
it actually works, but if you're using a sense rom I think you only need to download the apps in the op and replacing in system/app
I did this with insertcoin 6.0-4, the unlock helper app didn't recognize the rom, but with the terminal emulator method it worked just fine, tried with a sim and all fine ... then put again the original apks and you don't have to deal with any error popups
Interesting. I was under the impression that our version of this device did not support domestic (only international) GSM bands, hardware wise.
Is this version of sim unlocking different than what you would get if you asked Sprint? (they do allow you to unlock it if you meet certain criteria, like good account standing)

it supports the bands, but all the radios except the original one block domestic gsm carriers. if you still unlock and use that radio, it'll work.
Not working
I tried everything mentioned above, ( Unlock bootloader, S-OFF, Root) also changed the 2 apps in the system for the 4.3 ROM Stock rooted deodexed and then used the SIM unlock helper.
Then Got the same result : No GSM signal, and the SPRINT logo still on the top when I make a call, the same answer comes: " Error number 16 script 3."
I'm using Straight Talk Sim by ATT.

GT I9305 on Omni rom not recognizing UMTS sim cards

Long time omnirom user here with an issue I cannot find a fix for.
In my country there's a cell operator called RCS-RDS that has always had very good rates and unlimited 3g internet but, up until recently, very bad coverage. I have used 2 sim cards from this operator whenever I was in their coverage area for years now without a problem.
Last month RDS, has signed a national roaming agreement with VODAFONE so that you can use their network for service whenever you're outside RDS's coverage area. To use this national roaming service however, I had to replace the sim cards I had from RDS with new ones which, they say, operate in the UMTS 2100 band. I've checked the I9305's specs, and that band should be supported without a hitch.
Problem is however, that if I try to use either of the 2 sim cards, the phone gives me a no sim card error message and will behave as if there's no sim in the phone.
I'm using the radio recommended by mccamblesmith, the I9305 omni rom developer, in the omni rom development thread, and I have tried flashing every radio I could find, from the newest 4.4 radios to some very old 4.3 ones, but no change, and I've tested the two sim cards on other phones, including an S4, a beat up old Allview, an even older and more beat up Huawei U1220 and a 3G USB dongle, and both sims worked flawlessly on all of those.
I've also tried getting help on omnirom's irc channel, but the place is dead.

i understand the issue here, but dont know how to fix it easiest way without loosing all your data and personal stuff etc.
it seems the issue is not modem related but i think its related with the roms settings you applied but dont know what exactly. all i can say is make a nandroid backup to external sd of current rom and flash back your official stock firmware with odin, root and install recovery and flash omni again, then try the sim cards again. if it does not work you can always restore the nandroid backup from recovery.
i hope this helps

Due to a HDD failure a while ago, I no longer have the nandroid or the stock rom I saved from before I CFW'd the phone. Would changing to something like SlimROM or the likes help?

well you can always make a nandroid backup at any time in recovery mode, you know that right? cant tell if changing CFW will help but you can try it..
Edit: if i were you, i would make backup and put anything else important in internal or external sd to my pc temporary and wipe everything system/caches/dalvik/internal memory and then flash another custom rom or flash back omni again

Here you go, download mod 7 and flash with odin maybe you will need to flash the custom recovery of your choice over again and then you can flash the supersu update zip in my odin guide (in my signature) to get root acces.

[Q] Lost network & relocked BL?

Hello,
I've a weird problem with my Xperia SP. Today i wanted to get back to rom based on stock rom to get miracast feature.
I downloaded newest existenz rom and williams kernel for stock based roms. Installation went fine system booted ok and everything worked fine. After some time phone turned off and didn't wanted to start. Only flashmode worked. I've decided to download stock .205 CE1 rom and flash it.
It booted up, sim card was recognized(had to write PIN). After that network was not found. Signal with red "X". I've tried to manually register to network but i could not.
Next thing is that after flashing stock rom fastboot mode stopped working. Service menu shows that Bootloader can not be unlocked even that it was unlocked before and flashtool(BLU option) shows that it is still unlocked. Flashtool also shows Bootloader: NOT_ROOTABLE.
I have actually no idea what have happend. Now i'm installing stock rom using Sony PC Companion but i think this wont help for network problem.
My main network is PLUS GSM(Poland network).
Could sim card die? It is old type card (almost 10 years) and i had to cut it manually to fit micro sim for the phone.

Does it matter which country is it for? I can try some of them but i think that won't help. I've checked other sim card and it was recognized but didn't even ask me for pin. Weird Oo.
If nothing helps i will just flash stock firmware with SEUS and let sony service take care of it, hopefully. Phone still has guarantee.

Regions perhaps. But the thing that does not make sense it that that why did it work before and not now? It should work. Anyway, my SIM was mini too. I, too, had to cut it. It works. Or possibly contact your service provider maybe something is wrong with the SIM. They might have have locked it or something?

For anyone who had the same problem. Sony exchanged my whole phone with information that mainboard was broken. They said that phone could not be fixed.
Good luck

do a restore of Your TA will fix the problem, now my phone can detect SIM card

Droid Turbo XT1254 SU4TL-49 Baseband unknown, IMEI blank, SIM not detecting

One fine day I used the Verizon's software upgrade assistant to reinstall the 23.21.49 as my phone was randomly restarting itself even in safe mode (also tried resetting the phone and left alone). Once Verizon software upgrade assistant reinstalled the software, am not able to use the phone at all (. SIM was not getting detected, WiFi not working. Googled about this issue and then realized that the IMEI is blank, Baseband version in About Phone is also unknown. Thought might be after unlocking the bootloader I might be able to fix this (some post mentioned that they have fixed by regenerating some MPB_001 in some root folder). Tried to unlock the bootloader, chatted with @jcase in Sunshine - he suggested me to flash the stock rom (SU4TL-49) again from 'https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=44740'. Flashed that but still same problem.
Interestingly my bluetooth was working. I used my friend's phone's data (bluetooth tethering) and installed Sunshine and unlocked bootloader (paid $25 ). Then flashed latest TWRP 3.0.2.0 and installed latest stable CM12.1 hoping that it might fix something. In CM12.1, my WiFi started working )) but it was still not detecting SIM, IMEI and Baseband were still blank/unknown.
Is there something else I can try or is it better to assume that the Turbo will die without tasting stock Android M? Need help!
Update: Left the phone alone for 3 days, and to my surprise baseband version is showing now!! Sim card detected, IMEI is showing! Only sad part is I already purchased another device, wasted money . Not sure how it fixed itself on it's own, anyways am loving it!
You might need another sim card. Unless you have tried your sim in another phone.
