Sir, i've repaired my phone from autoreboot by this way http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971266
But after installation done, my phone wasn't detect the HSDPA/HSPA Connection(Before i do install that trick, my phone 3G Are great, but the problem is my phone always restarting every 1-5 min). I've checked 4636 and then i change the connection to JAPAN BAND for get HSDPA Connection, but it never works, still only can use only EDGE Connection. I see my brother phone connection is HSDPA on, but when i change his card to my phone, the HSDPA Connection are can't be use, always no signal. Did u know what was wrong sir? i've re-installed fw froyo-gw-froyo-gb and then no effect was takes. still can only use EDGE Connection :'(
Did you change the IMEI?
This guide replaces the IMEI which was in another phone.
is your phone the normal u8800, or u8800-51, or u8800H? (or u8800pro)

i'm tempted to think that you may have a wrong firmware somehow, because for example I have u8800H. It supports HSDPA and HSUPA+. However, when i use u8800 firmware, what happpens is that i lose the ability to switch networks. So i'm only forced to use "select network automatically".
What you can try at this moment is go to google play, download "Elixir 2".
after running it, go to information then click "telephony". Then try to do the APN or the data settings. Try switching it to UMTS/WCDMA only. That may help (more battery used!)
Or, probably the ROM you're using (since you said you're now on official ROM) has lower TX transmit power?

NOW im STUCK IN GINGERBREAD B526 i can't root bcoz my phone ADB are error, i've checked ADB Debug enabled but i dont know whats wrong. my plan is : go to b526 rooted, cwm, then install cm10 maybe the hsdpa signal will work. but there is no more adb debug. Many tutorial i've practice to get back my IMEI Code, but no one was success. Thank you for helping me sir
I will sell my phone to nearby cellular counter, they didn't know anything about android (they only know android is OS can ru
nning chat apps good and android can play angry birds , fruit ninja etc. #LOL) so i can sell with mid-high price

Maybe. now im back on cm7 kernel 32(base froyo) . Still got signal only up 2bar. When try to go to b526 the H signal are lost. Only can use edge connection
I will try to go to B528 as soon as possible
I Think my problem is on IMEI, bcoz after flash the fullflash.bin my imei changed to another phone, needs to change IMEI to stock (FRESH FLASH IMEI, NO ONLY FLASHING THE NUMBER) so i can get the H signal working good again. But i was try using DFS to change, only IMEI number changed and keep hsdpa no working
*UPDATE
After flash directly to B528, It still no signal when go to gingerbread. i must back to froyo and install cm7 again or get another tips to get my H signal working fine again?

stick to the 528, but i think you may need to reflash your IMEI, I think. But if you do it again chances are it may break down your phone.
How about the APN settings? Is it there?

I have flash B528, reflash the imei but qualcomm.background passwors are wrong. try to restore imei from my brother phone and imei is 0. setting qualcomm background pass= 0 and it worked. re-flash imei but no luck. still no signal
And im reflash my phone again with linux ubuntu like before. using cm7 32 kernel are better way than breaking hardware (overheated component) of my phone
APN setting are exist
With operator im using "Three" i can get 2 signal bar hsdpa
and "XL" i got up fullbar (but its only appear a few sec -,-) but my phone still usable than before i had problem auto reboot
hi. i have exactly the same problem that you have. i flashed my phone with that fullbackup.bin and updated the phone to b528. i already tried all the GB roms and nothing, can't have cdma(umts) network, only gsm. (edge)
tried to flash my own imei, and have the same problem. no 3g at all
anyone have a workaround for this problem? i managed to take the phone to the warranty, and came equal. (what a lol)

Hello,
I'll start from the beginning so maybe someone can figure out exactly whats going on with my Galaxy S4.
So my carrier is Telus and I had just a rooted 4.2.2 and everything has been fine since day 1 of rooting. 2 nights ago I noticed the stock Google Edition ROM was out and I decided to give that a try. I flash the 4.3 Google Edition ROM which said Canada (Bell/Telus/Rogers) and I was using that for about 24 hours. Everything was great, however I noticed I lost my 4G/LTE connection. So without being connected to WiFi I had no data plan basically, everything was on, carrier was selected all the APN settings were correct so I was lost. Completely confused as to why this is happening I just decided to restore to stock, unroot and start from scratch. I used Oden to restore the stock ROM from Telus back to android 4.2.2
Now, once that came back, still the same problem and what I noticed was it installed all the Bell Mobility stock software and when I plug the phone into Kies it's listed as a Bell Mobility device. How is this possible? I used the Telus stock ROM to restore, once that I've used before without any issues at all.
Any help would be appreciated, if you have any questions let me know.
Thanks.

I'm wondering if the 4.3 rom managed to update your EFS or CSC data... I'm no expert in these areas (and I'm on AT&T), so I don't think I can be much of a help. But this might be something to look into. Also be sure you wiped data too (you didn't mention it).
Also, I'm wondering if you have the correct Odin file for your carrier (if there is such a thing as a difference?)? I know with older handsets, it was possible for AT&T to push out APN settings, etc. from the carrier's end, forcing updates to your handset. Not sure if that's still possible or not.
If you have a nandroid backup of your ESN partition, you might try to restore that. Don't try to restore someone else's backup, or you'll mess up your IMEI and such.

Yeah sorry I forgot to mention some stuff. I have wiped data and factory restored before flashing the stock ROM in Odin as well as wiped everything again as soon as its complete. Right when it boots up the APN info is all wrong. I have data now if I set it up myself but its just sitting on H+ rather than LTE/4G. Also it seems to install the Bell bloatware rather than the Telus bloatware, so something within the phone still thinks its a Bell phone. I'm stumped, so is the Telus guy who was trying to help me with it today. I know I'm using the right .tar stock file from Telus because I've used it before. Man this really stinks!
EDIT: I'm not sure if this is valuable info to add but I just noticed when doing a factory reset it says the CSC that's applied and its labelled as BMC which is Bell Mobility. This is a Telus phone so I'm assuming my problem is somewhere right from there.
ALRIGHT!
I fixed it... I found a tutorial on how to change the CSC with the key command
"*#272*Device IMEI#"
Then it showed a list of carriers and I chose the right one, rebooted and it restored everything and presto. 4G/LTE is back on.

Hi guys been searching all day when I can grab some free WiFi, basically I rooted my s4 gti9505 with auto root and then installed custom recovery, and flashed PAC rom. I'm unable to make calls or receive mobile data but can use WiFi. My settings say baseband unknown .. I'll attach a picture of my settings here in this thread. I have attempted to flash a modem/radio in Odin but this didn't seem to make any difference, the problem is I'm not sure if it was the right thing to do (didn't make a back up of my phone foolishly before flashing PAC rom)
I'd appreciate any help with this guys! My network is vodaphone UK if that makes any difference to any advice given...
Thanks in advance!

will do this too, have just finished flashing MGA modem twice using your steps, will flash rom again..i wonder if i should wipe/factory wipe as i would when installing new rom...ill try it!
no luck -still no network. im running out of ideas
network - unknown
mobile network type - unknown
imei unknown
imei sv - unknown
going out now for a while but thought id ask - do you think that installing official stock rom (perhaps from your s4 unrooting guide) would help flashed via odin? from searching i can see that some folk suggest that stock will reinstall everything i need...im hoping so, i really wouldnt mind going back to stock, anythings better than this

did you put modem in "phone" in odin?
hmmm weird! i guess your imei is not corrupted, sometimes while flashing rom in cwm, efs partition is not detected, so flashing modem twice should work
you can try with an other modem, use new one (but im sure to flash it twice)
another option is trying to flash your stock firmware

yes put it in "phone" mode, thats the second or third one i have flashed now so im not sure it wont help but for sure ill try again!
are you able to determine that its not corrupted? would it state as such if it were? im going to flash a stock firmware as a last resort. lost after that haha
edit - installed cwm using sgs4 flasher and re-installed my custom rom and gapps, booted no probs and network now working - sorted!! thanks for your help i dont think i would have reflashed the rom without your advice to do so
So I'm practically in the same boat. I'm currently on P.A.C. man nightly 09/18 (Vodafone Germany branded device). I never had similar problems, but now I can't call (or be called) and I'm not able to use mobile data.
I nearly tried everything:
1) I checked the IMEI (saved it before switching over to custom roms), but an IMEI number is still there.
2) Went back to stock to see if it's a problem of P.A.C. man ROMS or not. On stock it didn't work either.
3) Went back to P.A.C. man ROM and flashed modem XXUBMF8 via Odin 3.04 (from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025)
4) Flashed the modem again after I flashed the ROM because it didn't work either.
So I'm completely lost now, I really don't know what to do next. I had mobile data for a couple of seconds every now and then, but nothing stable. And since the problem came up (yesterday evening) I can not make any calls at all.
Can someone help me?
Edit: The very strange thing is that I have full reception balks in the notification area (only in grey). But still, I guess this means that the device is somehow able to detect a signal but can not connect to it?
Edit2: I apparently have no Device-ID. May that be a problem?
So I took some screenshots to show you guys my problem a bit better. For some reason my mobile data now works (currently HSPA, but it's extremely slow). But I still can't make any calls (or get called too). =/
Edit: So to sum this up: the strangest thing about this problem is, that even when I go back to full stock I can't make calls. =/ What could be the problem? An IMEI number is present in the settings (althouh the 'IMEI SV' under 'About phone' --> 'Status' was one digit below the current one that I can see under those stats). The whole problem makes me believe that my provider can't sort my phone number to my device (I'm on Vodafone; but if that's really the case: why the hell does mobile data works sometimes?!). The other possibility: something with the modem/radio is broken. Could this be the problem? The thing is that I also tried to flash a custom modem, but the problem is still there...
I'm really concerned that my phone just became an expensive paperweight
Slightly different than my problem in that I didn't even have any bars for reception..my problem was fixed by changing the custom recovery software (originally I used philz to flash PAC), But I flashed cwm and then used this to again flash PAC, and all was good..don't ask my why but it helped me so you might want to try this...

Thank you for your answer!
You also flashed a different modem didn't you? Did this help or was it only the custom recovery? I'm confused because I used CWM before and never had problems. But then this mess all came up...
Yes I flashed several modems, that didn't help..only using a different custom recovery to flash my custom Rom again helped..hope you get sorted!

So I tried to flash PAC with TWRP 2.6.0 (it worked before), but the problem is still there.
I'm really confused. I really don't know what I can do or try to fix this mess... Is there some USSD code or something to find out if my device is missing some ID codes or if the modem is messed up or something?
Edit:
Update: For some reason I now can receive calls/SMS but only when I'm on GPRS speed. Outgoing and ingoing calls are no problem then. When my device is on HSPA or HSPA+ speed however, the old problem of not being able to call or be called is back. On one hand it's good that I'm somehow able to make calls again on the other hand it gets stranger and stranger. I know that it's a bug on PAC man ROMs that you can't change the mobile data speed options (LTE/HSPA/GPRS etc.), but I think that this could be the problem (or at least a part of it)...

Actually I can change the data in my phone between 3G and 2G (don't have LTE support here in my country)
Have you checked your APN? Think that might be a problem.
Also please post the steps you take before flashing PAC (ROM, kernel, recovery, etc)

Within Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network Mode? On PAC? It always crashes when I try to change something there. In the PAC bug post this seems to be a known bug, my mode is also set to GSM/WCDMA/LTE. But whenever I enter the settings to change this, only 'LTE' is chosen as option. I don't have LTE on my plan and I read somewhere else that Vodafone has major problems with it's LTE network here in Germany and that it may be better for customers without it to turn it off.
About APN: there is definitely something strange. I can enter the settings and I see three different APNs that were not created by me (they must be the standard carrier ones): they are called Vodafone DE (for Germany), 1und1 (pretty strange because the settings are the very same on this one, only the name is different) and Vodafone DE-MMS.
The strange thing now is that I can't change any value of the Vodafone DE APN... When I go into its settings, everything ia greyed out. This was the same on the stock ROM...
Now when I create a new APN with the correct provider settings (found via Google on the VF homepage), the phone still won't work. When I put the device aside for a few minutes, the Vodafone Deutschland DE APN is the selected APN again although I never went back to it...
Is there some option to take a deeper look into the modem stats to see what's the problem?
Install stock ROM

I tried that already, but it didn't help. Same problem...
I factory resetted the phone, wiped cache and dalvik cache and then flashed my Vodafone branded stock ROM via Odin that I had on my device when I got it. Didn't help for some reason... But: should I also try to go back to stock ROM via KIES? I haven't tried this method until now...
Edit: About my flashing method: I went from the stock ROM to rooted (via CF Auto root with Odin). For PAC I then flashed TWRP 2.6.0 and then in recovery factory resetted the phone, wiped cache and dalvik and then installed PAC. After that I installed GApps. I used this method before and it worked without any problems...
Edit2: I found this thread, it appears to be the same/a similar problem with the S3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805709&page=6
Now is there something similar for the S4? I think I tried calling ##72786# on stock ROM and it didn't work...

Delete the unused APNs.
Do you have mobile data?
Also I asume that you're running the latest vertigo's build, because with me GSM/WCDMA/LTE is always selected.

Sometimes I have mobile data, but only for very limited time; for the majority of time, I don't have mobile data and can not make calls.
I also tried to delete the unused APNs, but still no change =/
I tried to use a different Micro SIM in this device, but the same problem appears. No data, no phone although I have grey reception balks.
any update on this one?!
Hello.
I'm really lost with my phone at the moment. I've tried to upgrade to several custom ROMs, but somehow there's always a thing that isn't working. I've followed the guides on this forum, but it looks like I got lost somewhere in the process and I did something wrong, since there are hundreds of topics and loads of information everywhere.
So, I'd really appreciate it if someone can tell me EXACTLY what to do to get my phone to a stable custom ROM (pref CM, but Aurora looks nice as well) from my current phone's condition.
Here are two screenshots from my phone's Settings-About phone menu.

The current situation is, that my wifi is not working at all when I enter my simcard, then there's random reboots, it kind of works stable only if I have it plugged in pc(charging), etc.
My current ClockworkMod Recovery version is v6.0.3.3
If possible please add links to stuff that I should work on, Step by step!
Edit: Forgot to mention that I also get the "SIM network unlock PIN" message after I enter SIM PIN. sigh*
Thank you.

Looks like you are currenty using TMC by forumber2. I instelled and removed it because I found Aurora SP (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295318), which is stable and has a goood battery backup. You can try that.
As long as SIM lock is concerned you can use DFS (http://cdmatool.com/) to unlock the SIM.
I guess you are using the carrier locked phone.
Good luck.

Okay, thanks for the first reply. I'll try to install this ROM, but does that mean that I have to install some official Android version first? It doesn't say anything in that topic, but for some ROMs it's mentioned, and usualy the added links are broken, etc.
And about the SIM lock, I don't know if it was a misunderstanding, or I'm missing something from that website. My SIM isn't locked, but it looks like that my Network adapter is, or however should i call this, I don't have the phone with me atm to exactly describe it, but still. I get the message that i should enter a PIN for my network something, not for SIM unlock.
Is this resolved with installing a new ROM, or do I still need to do something else about it?
Please clarify

I don't think so. I installed it over Lewa ROM. It installs its own kernel, so there is no such dependency.
Just take the backup using recovery to be on safe side.

Did you purchase the phone from specific service provider?
Does it ask for pin when you try to insert another SIM card?
Did you manually set some PIN/PUK code?

Yes I did purchase my phone from a service provider. I didn't have a chance to try another SIM card, but, I've installed a 2.3.5 android version now, and the system is stable, at least I'm fine with that, but the WIFI and bluetooth aren't working. For wireless it says Error when I try to enable it, and bluetooth simply isn't enabling, without giving me any errors.
And no I did not change any PIN/PUK code settings.
At least the phone is working now, but I really have to get the WIFI working, any ideas?
"kernel" - 2.6.35.7-perf

I guess this localhost thing has something to do with it? But I've no idea about those things, on phones at least.
your emei is correct?
if you have used custom partitions you could have lost your emei.
go to defenitions and see if your emei is correct.
and have you tried to install an official rom again and see if everything is working?

I've checked the IMEI, it's the same as on the back of my phone. It also says "Wi-Fi MAC address / Bluetooth address - Unavailable".
I'll try to install fresh rom later today again. Should I install the same version as I did the last time (2.3.5), or some other one?

if your wifi and your Bluetooth are closed it will say this... if you open them it will show the addresses as normal...

What do you mean open them? I can't enable either of them, as I described in one of my previous posts, I get error trying to enable WiFi, and as for bluetooth, nothing happens.
Guys please help me out...
i got very big problem: i bought phone from hands , with warranty etc. everything were awesome, till i flashed lolipop. when i started to using it , it showed up problems with network, in my city very often i get not signal, and cant registre to network, try again later. I asked in ROM treads noone answered me [its not rom problem i guess]. about 5 days i checked solutions none of roms helped.
i changed sim card, i tought it could be faulty- no
i changed phone number i thought it is faulty- no
i changed carrier , YES it worked, but 3 days later, im registred in network, but signal is very changing, and today i cant register in network[in the same room]
i checked imei *#06# and there were big problem, imei wasnt like on note 3 box , and backcover, it is like 14950000168.... /01 , and i cant find solution, how to get this imei back. i checked with root broswer, efs folder- there is no file .nv_data , or anything that starts with.nv. i checked *#0011#, IMEI BYPASS : PASS from carrier side.
i dont have any backups, nothing. im so afraid that this 300eur phone is only wifi device.:crying:
is there any wait to get back this imei :S ?
guaranteed compensation , if suggested method will work. [PP]
like approvment i can send images of note 3 box/warranty check that its my property, thats not stolen device.
I tryed very much options. If needed some kind of detailed info. just say, ill get it.
hope for good advice.
sry for my english.
Faithfully, Berils.
any idea guys? suggestions?
bump :S
Buddy, I am not sure if I understood you very well.
But you can try to go settings - connections - more networks - mobile networks. Then change the Network name from WCDMA/GSM to WCDMA only.
I have done that & it has worked for me. I have done few more things that helped me to resolve the issue. Please let me know if you need any help.

the biggest problem is that, that i have knox 0x1 , and i got no imei. i readed my carrier warranty rules: IF IMEI is deleted or changed the will not repair.
fck.... im so exhausted of finding solutions.
ill try to set up lolipop again, and i hope now it will reset all partitions, and will create nv.data file, and other imei stufff.... finger cross.
stay up tune. will report.
