I have used custom roms for a while about 4 years on various models, I consider myself to know enough to get the job done and sometimes I know enough to get myself in trouble.
I ungraded my Galaxy S4 Sprint phone firmware to NAE from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338919), and then I put the KitKat rom from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2650706), and when it came up, it did not have Data or Cell connectivity, (Said Unknown in settings screen) it had Wifi, and it had NO SOUND at all. So I moved back and put a 4.3 rom on there, and I got back the Data and Cell connectiviy, but still no SOUND at all, and when I used the Dialer app and dial a number it went to a white screen and then locked up and Force Closed.
Then I tried to go back and put MK2 firmware on from that same post above with same results. I have tried many ROM's of many varieties of Android and NO SOUND at all.
I am using Philz Recovery and doing the Wipe for Clean Install many times and then rebooting back into recovery mode before I install any Rom. I am using Odin 3.07 for the Modem firmware updates and have no indication that they are installing wrong.
I have searched for the solution on these forums and googleing it for the better part of 4 hours (At a late night job). I have not been able to fix it.
Please help. I have wifi, I can text and receive texts. I can not make phone calls or recieve phone calls. I can not play sounds or hear any sounds come from phone. Haptic response happens when it should.
I plan on going and downloading one of the Sprint Stock Roms to take it back to stock through and through to see if that helps and will post it that works, but if there is another solution with detailed steps to take, let me know.
[SOLVED] No SOUND after update.

And that Plan worked. I downloaded the stock MK2 rom from sammobile website, using the free signup and then I used Odin 3.09 putting that rom in the AP spot.
Afterwards, I was Knoxed and Un Rooted, but I had SOUND where as before I did not.
So back to the process of de-knoxing and rooting.
I did find this process on XDA finally. Thanks.

i'm having thesame issue, flashed NAE modem and every ROM after that has had no sound, constant re-boots, locking up, some ROMS work fine, others are unusable, but they all have the same problem: no sound. I'm goin g to flash back stock like you did, glad i searched before i created a thread just like yours, wish me luck.
Hi everyone, long time reader, first time poster.
First of all, i want to let you all know how i appreciate all the hard work you guys do on here. i was able to get all the info i needed to get my ATT n7105 back to stock after running CM 10.2 for the last year on it.
Back on topic...i have an S4 i337 running 4.3 MK2. when i first flashed it, for the longest time i couldnt figure out why i couldnt get signal or wifi, and found out needed to flash the MK2 modem firmware also (thanks for the info on that also). now the issue i am having is that now the phone has no sound at all, tried playing music, recieving a call (which makes the phone go total bonkers too), or even the beep it makes when adjusting the volume. I have tried searching for info on sound issues, but that was one thing i was unsuccessful with.
when i first got the phone, it had 4.2.2 (not sure of the firmware) and wanted to unlock it to use any carrier rather than just ATT. the only way of unlocking it, rather than getting an unlock code, was to go into service mode, and navigate through some menus, but i read that with 4.2.2, i could not, so i done an /ota update, which brought me straight to 4.4.3. after the unpdate, tried doing the service mode again, and had no luck, so tried downgrading to 43].3, than went to hell trying to get it working, untill coming across these forums, and got it working again with 4.3 MK2, but as mentioned, with no sound.
Any advice on what to try?
Thanks in advance.

You don't have sound or the ability to call because your bootloader and non-hlos don't match. You can get sound by flashing the NB1 or NC1 modems(including non-hlos.bin) but that will break your wifi which can be fixed by using bypasslkm.
Sure, ill give that a try.
What if i were to update it to 4.4.3? any certain modems required there?

Whenever i tried flashing NB1 or NC1, i get an error saying "signature verification failed, then later on give an error "unknown path \sdcard1" after wiping data, then reboots. and when the phone rebooted, it goes through the first time setup after a wipe, and then checking the modem, and its still NK2.
I really would like to get it to the current version.

Awesome! thank you very much
With the instructions you provided, i was able to get my i337 in working order.
your assistance is greatly apreciated
So, before I begin, I'd like to point out that I'm an idiot. I don't know how or why, but I'm an idiot.
I've been running danv's ROM for the longest time without issues (galaxy s4 on Rogers) and then decided to update the ROM today. After making my titanium backups and everything like that, (haven't made a ROM backup in a while though - again, idiot) I decided it was time to flash the ROM.
Well, I went and did a full wipe, and then all of a sudden when my phone rebooted, it rebooted into download mode with the whole "could not do normal boot" in the top left corner.
I was able to get into my phone by doing volume up/home/power and then canceling when it said to install new OS or not. So I do have access to my phone, but anytime it restarts it goes into download mode, I can't even get into recovery mode to flash the ROM.
Any ideas what to do to be able to flash this ROM? I have a rom backup from March of this year, would that fix the issue and then just try to flash the new ROM again once I was able to get into recovery mode?
Any help anyone can provide me would be much appreciated. I'm currently downloading the stock firmware from sammobile to see if that would fix the issue since I can install that over odin.
Thanks in advance.
*Edit* So recovering from a ROM backup didn't work either. I've done some researching and I think trying to flash through odin is my only option unless I've missed something. I'm running firmware NE3, so does that mean I should get the stockfirm ware for my device (S4 Rogers NI2) or get the firmware for the same NE3 that I have on my phone (In this case it would be Puerto Rico firmware)?
If someone could let me know if this would work, I would very much appreciate it.
ok so i just got this phone coming from s5.its on the latest firmware QC5. the nougat root worked flawless and was able to flash things with flashfire..well messing around i flashed twrp just to see what would happen.well now it wont go in to recovery at all and the first time it did the l9ck said it was on..everythinh else still works still rooted.my qiestion is how to fix this? do i have to factory reset and start over or if i can find the lateest firmware and flash via odin?any help would be appreciated...
Please help me..
My phone is caught in a bootloop.
I flashed my device with wrong rom, then I tried a roll back, but I flashed the wrong rollback file(see the pattern? Yes, I am indeed an idiot of epic proportions..)
I don't have access to fastboot or bootloader (I used Firmware Finder for the update.)
I tried Huawei eRecovery; it doesn't work
I tried Hisuite; it doesn't work.
my device model is VNS-L31C16B120.
I have the stock rom for the device.
Can anyone help me?
maybe someone can find a roll back package that will work with my device?
