I used DJ05 but I just got back to DI01 because of 3G network availability. but once I got back in DI01 my fascinate doesn't detect 3G. the web only works on wifi. when I turn off the wifi button it does nothing. even 1g or 2g siganal didn't come up just signal bar shows on. I have no idea to fix it. does anybody can tell me what I need to do now?? without wifi zone it work like feature phone to me..
How exactly did you revert back? I'm assuming you used ODIN? If so, did you choose the Phone button or the PDA button to flash the image? If you used the Phone button, then your modem is dead, and cannot be recovered, so you will have to find some way to replace your phone.
Dial *228 and press 1 to activate/reprogram your phone. I had the same thing happen to me. It's just not activated anymore.

yes you right. I used odin and put two images, one "DI01modem.tar" via phone section and the other one "DI01package3.tar.tar" thru pda section. so should I find some way to fix?? what else I can try???

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, there is no known way to recover from modem failure caused by flashing with the Phone button in ODIN. I'm sorry, but it looks you will either have to buy a new phone, or find a way to convince Verizon to give you a warranty replacement.

+1 to that. Hope you have insurance, that is your only hope now. As an FYI, the DI01 package already contained the modem. It is called an AIO package for a reason.
There is no way to recover your phone if you used the Phone option instead of the PDA option in Odin.

but sir, everything works but 3G doesn't. even wifi works. do we call this situation "bricked" ? hmm I put only DI01 modem.tar in the phone button and after pass sign I put the DI01 package.tar in the pda section. only thing doesn't work is 3G network. should I buy another one? I bought this phone from ebay and my carrier is pagepluscellular. so I don't have insurance and no supported carrier.. so sad....

Do phone calls work? Does anything via the 1X network work? You could try reflashing the DI01modem.tar via PDA, but that would be the only possible fix besides a new phone.

oh... If I failed to reflash via pda, nothing happen after then? I don't have to worry about fail via pda right??
Correct. You can't really hurt anything by flashing via turn PDA button.
Posted from my DL09 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
Gunnermike, from here and Android central flashed in Odin using the phone button by mistake. He re-flashed the modem using PDA and reported that everything worked as it should afterwords.
At this point, you don't have anything to loose.
I made the same mistake (select phone instead of PDA) when I tried to install voodoo lagfix. After reading this thread I downloaded the modem.tar file for my version of Froyo and the PIT file. I entered the download mode and through odin I updated the phone modem using the modem.tar file and pit file. It worked like a charm. Now everything is OK. Be sure to remove the SIM card before update.
Thanks a lot for the ideea.
P.S. I used PHONE not PDA when I fixed my modem. And do not forget the PIT file.
Hello, I just received a used Galaxy S4 and I can't seem to get wi-fi to work. Every time I try to turn it on any other network than my own it simply gets stuck. The only fix that I've tried until now is a factory reset which doesn't really work. The KNOX has already been tripped by the former owner (it's 0x01) and I'm pretty handy with flashing tools like Odin. I've heard about flashing a different "non-HLOS" modem, but I don't really understand which one I should use. I have attached to this post two screenshots of the version, baseband and CSC.
So, what should I do? Should I try a non-HLOS modem? Which one should I use? Is there any way to mess up the EFS that way?

Unfortunately that did not work. Any other ideas? Should I try a custom ROM? Or can you point me to a stock firmware which doesn't have this issue?
LE: Well, editing the build.prop securestorage line seems to fix it, but since it's not mine, I would prefer a more permanent fix, one that doesn't go away with a factory reset.
Hello,
I'm in the UK and last night I got an OTA update for my S4, turns out it was for Lollipop 5.0.1 from kitkat (cant recall exactly which). The update appeared to go fine but after I noticed that the back button and the other touch button didn't work or light up (straight after the update).
After panicking and stupidly trying things on the internet, I tried to install kitkat using Odin, following a different example someone else used (cant find it now) but that failed and now I have (foolishly) soft bricked the phone (I hope, anyway).
When I try turning it on, I get a message telling me to use kies to recover the software but neither Kies or Kies3 recognise it. Kies just constantly tried to load it and Kies3 tells me it isn't compatible. Neither list it for emergency restore.
Odin doesn't seem to work with any .tar files. Some fail early, some fail near the end.
I can send a picture of a screenshot of a failed odin for a 4.4 Kitkat flash.
Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.
With the error you're apparently having, the .tar.md5 file should be in the BL/Bootloader slot in Odin. Then flash. Placing the file in BL should rewrite the bootloader and thus fix the corruption issue caused by your panic attack.
If the firmware is already located in BL, then check your cables and your other connections. Also, do not plug the phone in until AFTER you've entered download mode on it.
Here you have a Base ROM (HOH2) with 4files+PIT: https://mega.nz/#!cg0DWTIR!rQIPicJdKj16B4kqE5GT43HWvoUa32ny8ys5wAWJV3Q
Flash ur phone using each file on the right field of Odin (including the PIT) and with Re-Partition TICKED.

Hi guys, Ive searched and searched, but couldnt find anything that worked for me, so I apologize if this has been answered before.
I attempted to root my GS6 Sprint phone, and something has gone wrong. When the phone reboots the touch screen doesnt work at all and it doesnt find any cell signals.
I flashed to S6-UniKernel_v6-0001-ODIN, the firmware on the phone at the time was 5.1.1.
I tried to flash back using G920PVPU1AOCF_G920PSPT1AOCF_G920PVPU1AOCF_HOME.tar. but I get "FAILED" every time.
So I tried to install twrp-2.8.7.1-zeroflte.img, and that seemed to install fine, but I cant reset because even in TWRP I have no use of my touch screen.
I am using the samsung cable, and it does go to the Downloading mode, but as soon as I click start it fails.
Anyone that can help me fix this I would gladly paypal the cost of a six pack. (Mods if this isnt allowed please let me know)
Okay so here is what fixed it for anyone else like me that is a noob, and does dumb stuff to their phone. You cant roll back to old firmwares. You have to flash to the latest firmware that was on the phone or newer. I found the updated firmware and its good to go.

Minor correction. You can use the version that you started with or a later version. The only problems come if you try to use an earlier version, like going from 5.1.1 back to 5.0.2. Which won't work.

Hello.. Assuming your phone is already rooted. Pls follow the below procedure
1. Restart and let the phone biot. Plug in your usb and insert a new for installation purpose
2. Hold and press power+up+home button to boot into recovery
3. Format and reflash the new rom
Should works like a charm

Is the a Galaxy s6 or a S6 edge+ of edge+ you've been flashing the wrong firmwares, which would explain the issues you're having
Try a different cable or usb port or redownload the firmware file as it may be corrupted.

Hey guys bare with me long story,
Last week I decided to try out Cyanogen Mod (12.1). I had not flashed anything to this phone previously or rooted it. I wanted to flash Cyanogen due to less bloat but I did not want to root because I have work software that needs to go on the phone which will not activate with root enabled. So I flashed cyanogen and it was great but my battery started draining and bluetooth was not working properly on it. I decided to give Temasek 's last Lollipop release a try after this because it did not install root either. I gave that a go and still got severe battery drain. So I decided to flash back stock (N900W8VLU2DOH1), but as soon as I did I noticed my two soft key's were not working upon doing so. Back button would not work at all and the other would just open search. So I did multtiple wipes , update from kies etc. But no luck fixing the soft keys. FInally I read that flashing a custom kernal would fix the softkey issue for now until another Samsung update comes out. So I flashed Idle kernal and it fixed the softkeys but now I keep getting a "Unfortunately Knox has closed" message upon start and sometimes out of knowhere. This is really annoying.
Has anybody else ran in to this and know any fixes for it ? Even for just the knox popup. I think it may have to do with the touchkey's firmware from what I read and I'm hoping the next official update from samsung will fix this. I would try another custom rom as long as root is not enabled and battery and bluetooth are functioning properly, just not sure what else to try.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi.
This happened to my twice.
After much try and error, the solution I found is to REPARTITION the phone using a PIT file for your Phone.
Please find the PIT file for your variant and flash an official samsung rom while selecting the PIT file in ODIN.
Should work. please let us know the result.
Hi Suroky,
Thank you very much for the reply. I will try this later today and let you know how it goes.

Hi.
Did you select REPARTITION into ODIN? Please be aware this can brick your phone as well.... Be sure to use the PIT file for your device, as there are many variants with different partitions.

Hi Audit,
I flashed the latest (OH1) as well. That's the firmware I am on at the moment, still no luck though. Thanks for the suggestion though. Going to try reflashing with PIT and repartition selected as Suroky suggested. Hopefully that does the job.

Just tried this again with the proper PIT and Re-Partition checked on in Odin. Still no luck, softkeys still not working. Anyone else have any ideas ?

Repartition MUST BE ON.
Adding a PIT file automatically checks re-partition in Odin 3.07 for me.
Try this:
uncheck everything in Odin except f.reset time, flash just the ROM without a PIT file, when you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove the USB cable, remove battery, wait 5 seconds, replace the battery, use the key combination to boot into recovery, perform a factory wipe, and reboot to the ROM.
Are you using an original Samsung USB cable? Maybe try flashing on a different USB port?

Re-Partition does the same for me in Odin. So I did try it twice with the PIT and RePartition on with no luck.
No I lost the original usb cable not long ago. Just using a standard usb 2.0 cable. I've tried on multiple usb ports as well.
I will test out what you mentioned and see what happens.
Thanks!

Thanks a ton man, this worked for me. It was really annoying not having my back buttons working. Now I just have to figure out how to reroot my phone after upgrading my boot loader.
To root the n900w8, you can try using cfautoroot or flash twrp and supersu from twrp.
Now I just need to get the lights on my soft buttons working again. plus fix my text messaging so I can receive messages again.
