Depzai,
Please be more specific, type out entire or post photo of TWRP log people can see the error in full and help you the best we can.
For the time being try this. Do an ext4 format in TWRP, then wipe /data /internal storage /dalvikART /cache - be sure you do this or else you will not be able to boot due to Samsung's encryption. Flash rooted rom provided by Travis via TWRP. After flashing rooted rom, do not reboot, proceed to flash HKernel provided by Travis. Wipe /dalvik and reboot. It will take a couple of minutes for the whole thing to reboot - let your phone sit and do its thing. Check your kernel and build# under settings and post back with results.
I know for a fact what Travis provided works, since hes fixed TWRP and the HKernel for the SCV33 variant recently.

change apn settings seems to be your issue or re-flash your csc with odin. I can't guarantee the jap versions will be 100% perfect, if you want this, someone needs to donate me a s7 edge docomo.

Try and do as Travis has stated, if no luck.
Redo your install. Not sure how you got these errors. My front cam works as it should, and all calls out of JPN and in JPN work with country codes.

I'll get twrp updated for the other 2 variants this weekend also.
First I installed TWRP via ODIN
Then I installed the SU from the memory card
I rebooted the phone, no internet and no cellular network
I read somewhere that needed another kernel I installed what is in the link of this post
In log appeared error messages: could not mount ... (I forgot the characters here sorry ) but in the end appeared sucess
I just installed and restarted, message on display: KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
WARRANTY BIT: KERNEL
Stopped in the galaxy logo
I read more posts that I needed to do wipe
Dalvik / ART Cashe and Cache
But messaging appeared: Failed (same as above process)
So I decided to use the FORMAT DAT option
The phone started again and all functions ok.
Now comes the bad part
Wanted to see what the error that appeared in the log
But this time there is no error
But in rebbot the message appears: NO OS INSTALLED
And now how do I solve this? please :crying:
Sorry bad english
twrp via odin, boot twrp and format data, install kernel, done

Performed but does not start
Always returns to TWRP
what about previous kernel? Odd some are saying no problem, some are saying errors, how do I know what is what when I do not have the device in my physical possession?
If you all seriously want support like on SM-G9350 I really do need the device to run debugs and get kernel logs so I can do fast builds to troubleshoot. It's very difficult building blindly ya know? So as of now I will not update the Doco variants any longer until I am able to have a hands on experience with it. Sorry about that but I think its best for now.

Dear @travis82 can you port your room SM-G9350 for S7 edge Japan?Or can you upload only system.zip of you i will try update my phone.Thanks so much.
no more docomo updates until I get a docomo somehow someway, its too difficult to know rom error or user error since i do not have the device.
I think I deleted the OS somehow
So I installed the rooted room and the kernel beta 2
Everything works but with a lot of lag
Should I Try Another Version Of The Kernel?
Please do not abandon this version
Only you are giving support
Updating
After installation of Rooted Rom the device was showing a lot of lag
I uninstalled the apps that did not interest me and I rebooted the device by entering TWRP
I reinstalled Kernel Beta 2, after the installation I clicked the option WIPE CACHE / DALVIK, after complete reboot
On restart it appeared the message ANDROID IS OPTIMIZING APPS
After this the system became perfect without lag
Everything running internet, cel calls ... and root
its great , I am very happy
I'm going to assume you're on stock lollipop, doesn't matter what radio
This guide will help those who cannot text, receive call or make calls, and those with no service after flashing and cm 14.1 based rom, Hoping to try out MM soon so if I find anything relating to this, i'll add it to this guide
Step 1 : Start by rooting your devices, here is a guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257101
Step 2 : Install twrp official app, grant it permissions and follow instructions on installing twrp recovery.
Step 3 : Download any custom 7. + rom of your choice (RR, Oct-N, Vanir) and Gapps of your choice (16gig models I recommend micro or smaller)
Step 4 : For Some devices, most will end up with No Service (I've experienced this and its one of the reasons why i'm making this guide) I recommend you flash this Patch to fully enable GSM on CDMA Global phones with Android http://www.internauta37.altervista.org/en/patch-fully-enable-gsm-cdma-global-phones-android
Step 5 : At this point some might start receiving call, text messaging (incoming an outgoing) and some wont receive calls so I recommend you flash this Mod by @Geofferey at https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/general/fix-calls-receiving-gsm-t3213006 ( I recommend the MM-GSM)
Step 6 : reboot device, you should be able to receive incoming calls now
All credit is to guys that came with these mods, and I do not take any for that
just helping point a brother to the right place
thanks
Are there any up-to-date ROMs? The Oct-N is dated at 207-04-12 ... Thanks
https://www.teamoctos.com/oct-n-weekly-lineageos-base/oct-14.1_release/jfltespr/
Thanks! This is the first post I've seen of this kind, and I'm trying to decide if it'll be worth potentially losing my unlock for Nougat.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/general/fix-calls-receiving-gsm-t3213006 This link, has anyone successfully attempted this flash yet and received a working signal on an older modem and/or unlocked domestically by flashing this? Any input on this would be incredibly helpful.
(I know you said lollipop, however...)I'm stuck on KitKat because I can't find any other ROM that either won't drain battery (gpe lollipop), and won't break my unlock, turn out incompatible with my baseband, or (frustratingly) update it, resetting my baseband modifications.
Edit: Works fine, finally running on Nougat rom.

Been running JDC since this guide and haven't had any issues, glad the guide helped you
Hello and thank you for this guide! It didn't solve my problem alone, but did help me to find my way to what I needed to do.
Here's how I fixed my problem (No service, No 3G, No LTE on Ting with JDC 7.1.2 rom)
Preface: Only follow these steps if the steps in the original post did not work for you. I'm not responsible for any problems you run into.
1. Follow Steps 1-4 of this guide.
2. If on Ting (or other MVNO), install MVNO Slayer (Buzbee's version) in TWRP. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65917850&postcount=30
3. Download a Build.prop Editor of your choosing and add the line "ro.telephony.default_network=10" under # Radio.
4. Save your build.prop file you edited and restart phone. You should now have working LTE, 2g, 3g, and 1x. Enjoy.
is it possible to flash any custom rom from other variants similar to how other guys are able to flash non sprint roms on sprint note 3s like here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/help/note-3-sprint-sm-n900p-t3595399 i don't need calling or data since i'll be using this as back up phone to play around on

I'll write this out the best I can. Never written tutorials before.
Step 1: With your current system, flash the build.prop CDMA TO GSM (i think zip) zip file.
Step 2: In TWRP, flash your rom (7.1, etc). Wipe System, Data (not internal), Cache, Davik/ART Cache, and then install your rom; note that i9505 roms will work as well.
Step 3: After the rom is installed, do the account setup and start setup, then if you notice you have no signal, go to Settings > More Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode, or Preferred Network Mode > WCDMA/GSM.
Step 4: Wait. After setting the preferred mode, you should wait at least 10 minutes for signal.
Step 5: If it didn't work, tell me. I'm terrible at text tutorials.

Nope. It was my own problem. (old battery, and was using a bad micro sd card inserted 24/7)
I got some decent screen-on time with the Nightmare governor in Stweaks on the first two cores, and conservative on 3 and 4.

gsm unlock vs. data fix???
Hi all. Pardon me for being dense, but I really don't know what I'm doing. I have an unlocked SPH-L720T mostly functioning on Mintsim right now. I can make calls, have regular texting, and I have Edge data. The problem is, no 3g and 4g. Do I need to follow all the steps posted in this thread in order to fix the data, or are the beginning steps a gsm unlock? I used idoneapps to get my phone unlocked and working on Mintsim. I've added Mintsims APNs manually. I'm on OK3, Sprint stock rom, and looking at installing a custom rom in the meantime. I'm also trying to figure out if current modem vs. android versions have anything to do with the data trouble, as I read a reference to that somewhere on these forums, but have yet to find anything solid.
There is now https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga.../jdcteam-android-source-project-oreo-t3685231 (CDMA support is WIP?)
Hi MY problem is incoming and outcoming call no sound. please help ! my phone : sph l720 and all stock rom and custom rom tested but fail.
Aosip for Motorola Z2 Force
What is this?
AOSiP is a quality custom ROM based purely on GOOGLE AOSP source since 6.0 release. Twisted with the latest features and blended with stability. We strive for perfection and it shows.
Obligatory Warning: This guide and ROM assumes you know the fundamentals of fastboot, flashing TWRP, and running a flash all. Your warranty is voided because of the unlocked bootloader. This is a Third Party ROM. Things may not work as expected compared to stock (for better or for worse).
Warning 2: If you can't do fastboot commands, do a flash all, root your device or flash TWRP/ROM, please do not ask for help here. If you cannot flash all back to stock, please stay stock for everyone's sake.
Warning 3: if you don't flash the firmware so you are on Oreo on both slots, when you boot after flashing, you'll be on Nougat firmware and have a brick. Try a flash all as that's your only hope on recovering your phone.
How to install
1. Download the latest ROM from here.
2. Prepare your phone for AOSP style ROMs. (download one of the firmwares depending on your model)
Flash the firmware with the .bat file. (See links below or on Post #2)
3. Boot to TWRP
4. Flash TWRP to boot image (with the zip from their website.) Reboot to Newly flashed recovery.
5. Erase oem, data, and system
6. Flash rom like you would any aosp rom, in twrp.
7. Reboot to bootloader
8. run the command "fastboot -w" (this will erase EVERYTHING from your phone, even internal SD, but is needed to have these ROMs work)
9. reboot.
Whats working?
Wifi
RIL
Mobile data
GPS
Camera
Flashlight
Camcorder
Bluetooth
Volte (T-Mobile)
Change quick charge
Fingerprint reader
NFC
Lights
Sound / vibration
Some motomods (soundboost mod doesnt work)
Team Illusion:
Josh Fox (xlxfoxxlx)

Known issues
1. WiFi Calling hit and miss
2. Cannot flash Gapps (included temporarily)
3. some Audio recording apps will not have audio recording work (phone functions fine)
4. if you don't fastboot -w, you will not boot.
5. if you don't flash the firmware your bootloader might relock itself and be stuck on Nougat.
6. SElinux is passive (meaning CTS check will always fail until further notice.)

Bug reports:
If you don't flash the firmware and your other slot is nougat, after flashing the ROM, you'll brick. (Custom ROM with a locked nougat slot.) Your only hope is attempting an official flash all and try again after flashing the firmware zip in the posts above.
Fair warning and off-topic: I am okay with some off topic questions. If you have a question, please use the search function. If I have addressed the question before, I will not answer and advise to find it in the thread. I will report the post for a mod to delete along with my response to keep the thread tidy. It seems some users think this ROM has international support. It doesn't and won't unless someone with another variant or an unlocked T-Mobile/Sprint model tests, confirms and debugs for that international carrier. Please keep in mind of what I said below regarding this. I posted this on page 20 or so and copying here for better visibility.
Your SIM is locked. You are trying to run a phone off it's intended network. Please don't post those problems here. It isn't ROM related. Like the thread states. It works for T-Mobile and Sprint only on their respective models on their locked networks. Any other tom foolery isn't supported and must be kept out of the thread. After this it will be considered off topic.
Edit: if you have Sprint or T-Mobile service and run into issues with using your (albeit, expensive) international roaming plan, I will assist with that if it works on stock but not AOSP. If you don't have a sprint or T-Mobile sim, I cannot help. Almost all devs on this device won't be able to help. "Almost" all of us are on US carriers.

@Uzephi is your device on sprint? Data works but LTE does not? Does the Moto Mods support Hot Swapping? This is great progress and can't wait to see more on this phone.

Motomods work with kernel in ROM (hot swapping should as well iirc, I don't use the mods that often where my projector is outdated) LTE doesn't work on Sprint, but 3G and 1xTT works fine.
@Uzephi if we were to flash your kernel, we would lose motomods support?

For now, yes. Still trying to get it work. Clang is being a PITA on my build box, having to go to Linaro which can't build the Motorola Greybus driver correctly.
Thanks sir, I appreciate what you've done for the community, finally can go back to my moto from a GS8+
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but...
Ive never had to install different firmware before on a ROM. If I install this, will it change the process of installing a different ROM in the future?
Thank you.
Sprint varient if it matters by the way.

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but...
Ive never had to install different firmware before on a ROM. If I install this, will it change the process of installing a different ROM in the future?
Thank you.
Sprint varient if it matters by the way.

Open the bat file in a text editor and run each of those commands one by one.
This I'd a dual boot device. Your other slot has the older Nougat bootloader. That firmware flashed the current Oreo firmware to both slots. If you don't do that, and you flash one of these ROMs, you'll reboot to your nougat slot, locked and pretty much screwed without a flash all and luck of being able to flash OEM images in oem mode.
Edit: you won't need to flash this any consecutive times until there is another big firmware update like nougat to Oreo was.

Thank you for the quick reply. I've installed the firmware, but now when I boot to TWRP and try to install the ROM, it instantly fails with ERROR:1. Tried redownloading with a different browser but got the same result. I feel like I'm missing something obvious.

Flash twrp zip to your phone, reboot to your phone's newly flashed twrp recovery and flash the rom. If I remember right,you need to wipe oem and system before flashing the ROM as well. I'll add that shortly.
Up and running! Thank you!! Still looking around but I do see a built in updater. Will this function 100%? By that I mean, when the Sprint LTE issue is resolved and whatever else is coming will be handled by the updater?
Thanks again very excited to play around.

Yes, since it's official, it checks the link in OP for any new updates.
For anyone using the ROM, are you seeing notification dots, I tried to get them to work, but they're not working for me.

Working fine for me thru Evie Launcher. Soundboost mod is broken though. My SoundBoost is recognized and the notification says the mod is attached, but the volume steps are reduced to on/off and no sound comes out.
Edited to reflect that only the sound boost mod isn't working AFAIK.

Oh, @npjohnson and @invisiblek don't have the sound mod, so they can't get it to work. All of us in the development discord are trying to mail one out, they can't guarantee when it would get fixed.
Edit: added disclaimer to OP. We can only guarantee what we have works. Like when I do my kernel, the only mod I have is the free projector, so that's the only mod I can guarantee works when I do get it working.
I have an extra soundboost I could mail to someone.

Xt1799-2 will only be able to flash Oreo ROMs for fingerprint because it isn't updated to Oreo/Oreo firmware isn't in the mirrors so we can't access the fingerprint driver files

Im on pixel experience , getting very slow network but fingerprint is working good.
So will it help if i follow this ghuide?
Current baseband version
M8937_37.13.03.64R
NON-HLOS.bin
Hey. I installed RETEU for XT1793, the version OPPS28.65-37-7-6, the firmware got up to normal, then I installed crDroid v4.7.2 x64 nfc and camera function works. The problem is in the fingerprint, I install the files from the archive (Files4Downgrade) the fingerprint works but the firmware of the communication module flies, the imei disappears, specifically the problem is in the NON-HLOS.bin file. I install this file from the firmware, the connection is working, the fingerprint not working. Who faced How did you solve the problem? Maybe there is an updated file NON-HLOS.bin for OPPS28.65-37-7-6
Unfortunately, this "fix" removes IMEI/baseband from my device (montana), no signal/network on SIM. (Flashed over stock 8.1, and Pixel Experience 9.0).
Had to go back to stock again(via fastboot flash), update to latest version using OTA (wifi) updates, and then I got IMEI (baseband) back.

You can extract these files from your own stock ROM and perform this procedure, may be your variant is different

It's different device. Check threads connected to your device. Moto G5S and Moto G5S PLUS are very different

My device is moto g5s xt1799-2.
I download this file and unzip it.
I see it contain 'NON-HLOS.bin' and 'fsg.mbn' files.
These two files are related to the baseband, IMEI, network, fingerprint. Since moto's baseband can only be upgraded but not be downgraded, if you upgrade it and it's not match your device's firmware, your network and signal will be empty, your IMEI will turn 0.
The only solution is restore the 'EFS' and 'Persist' partitions backup via twrp. So you must make a twrp backup in twrp before you try the method.
Why do I know that? Long story. Ha~ Some apps don't offer 32bit version anymore since early this year. The latest version of those apps don't support my device. Since moto doesn't offer a firmware upgrade for xt1799-2 (the last firmware is android 7.1.1 zui), I need to upgrade my os version. (Actually it doesn't matter with the android os version. The 32bit os version is the problem! ) First I flash the lineageos 18.1, but I see from its website that device should be in 8.1.0 os version, but you know, moto doesn't give our xt1799-2 users. I ignore that and try to flash it. Then it stuck it the lineageos boot animation. Then I search on the net and find if any way to upgrade my xt1799-2 to 8.1.0 oreo, and find a page. I follow the method and upgrade my device to oreo 8.1.0. Since I was new to it at that time, I did follow all the steps it listed and flash the 'NON-HLOS.bin' and 'fsg.mbn' files. Only to find that it's still 32bit os version! One app I use most runs inefficiently in stock oreo 8.1.0 and the os kills my background app. So I want to downgrade to zui 7.1.1 os, and find that my IMEI turns 0 and network signal is empty. Worst of all, the battery drains 3-5% per several minutes (not hour)!!! I even can't unplug my device from the power. Then I search from the web. and do many tests and find out that is because I flash the BP (baseband part: 'NON-HLOS.bin' and 'fsg.mbn' files). And know that moto's BP can only be upgraded but not be downgraded. So I keep the baseband version stay in stock oreo 8.1.0 and only downgrade the AP (system part). Then I found my fingerprint is not working. Then I downgrade the BP and it's back but no signal and IMEI 0. Since I didn't know that issue before and didn't backup the 'EFS' and ‘Persist’ partitions in twrp (I even don't know twrp at that time.). Finally, I search from the net that the solution is to flash a full upper firmware which network, signal, and IMEI are all fine and stay in that version (For my case is moto stock oreo 8.1.0 ). Then make an 'EFS' and 'Persist' backup in twrp.
Thanks to the twrp backup. I flash many third party roms recently (More than 10 roms.) Sometimes when I flash back to stock oreo 8.1.0, I can see my baseband change itself. Like, 57R baseband version for my xt1799-2 in moto stock oreo 8.1.0 everything is fine. But it will change to 57e, sometimes 57U when I flash the AP(system part). Both of them network signals are empty. Then I need to restore my 'EFS' and 'Persist' backup in twrp, power off the device and boot into the system. Then you will see in the 'About phone' page', it's back to 57R, everything is fine again. And you power off not restart, and boot to bootloader, you will see the baseband is back to 57R.
Another weird thing is that I have another moto g5s xt1799-2. I keep the baseband version of it in zui's last firmware 7.1.1(NZS26.68-117) that is 54R. When I flash AP (system part) of stock oreo 8.1.0, its signal it empty sometimes is full, but both can't make a call and surf internet. But when the 54R device flashes a third party 8.1.0 rom, like crDroid and AICP, VoLTE works! But when the 54R device flashes a third party 9.0 and 10 rom, no network signal again! So I don't think it's the matter with the baseband version, otherwise the third party 8.1.0 rom will no signal, but it doesn't happen. VoLTE works in the third party 8.1.0 rom, but not the moto stock oreo 8.1.0 rom.
