Hello everyone. First off thanks for reading this post.
A friend of mine has a Samsung Galaxy S i9000t. He didn't do a backup of his ROM from before doing a firmware update. Well he's now in a bit of a problem. The new firmware installed fine. But it seems to have affected his cell radio as the phone is only bouncing between 1 or no bars and not getting any cell signal (though it is seeing another carrier other than his carrier).
His i9000 is the UK version and we've been trying to find back his original 2.3.3 ROM (which was installed via kies), but with no luck. Wifi is working fine and I would say everything else is as well other than the cell radio.
Any help you can give would be much appreciated.....thanks.
Well, most firmware can be found at samfirmware, but there might be other solutions as well. What did he flash ? (and you proably are in the wrong section, btw)

Thanks for the quick reply. I think he's tried a few of them now, but the cell radio issue hasn't improved. He's currently on Gingerbread 2.3.4 XXJVQ.
Didn't mean to post in the wrong area....where would be the right place to seek help.

In my opinion, just reflash to a new firmware using Odin.

Hi, I need some help please. I have a S5360L that was bought to me by a friend in Venezuela about 2 months ago and since the beginning it restarts it self but always in standby, it never has restarted while I'm working on it, playing or whatever. It works flawlessly except for that problem so I was thinking maybe is a software problem. I did a hard reset and also try it without the sd card but still the same. Now it restarts about 3 times a day, perhaps a bit more than before. If you can help me please I will appreciate your help.
It's Unbranded.
Android version: 2.3.6
Band base version: s5360LUHKJ2
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
Compilation number: GINGERBREAD.UHKJ2
Can you Install another ROM? if occurs on other rom,its a hardware problem
Try to reflash stock rom via odin....
Press thanks if i helped u in anyway..
Well I was reading around the site other users experiences and I figured this is the next thing I could do, try reinstalling the stock rom, despite my current rom seems to be the last official samsung rom for the s5360L. But I don't wannted to do it without ask first, I'm a newbie and the last thing I want to do is brick my phone. I think the odin rom I need is "S5360L_UHKJ2_UUBKJ1_UHKJ2_by_Doky.zip", I downloaded earlier to be ready, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks
Almost done
Well let me tell you what I've been doing ...
I flashed S5360L_UHKJ2_UUBKJ1_UHKJ2_by_Doky which was the stock ROM but no change, so I give it a try with S5360_DXLC1_OLBLA1_DXLC1_by_Doky and guest what, it stops reseting. But with that came another issue, at first I thought I had no signal at all, and it was most of the time, but then I realize at moments I had a bit of signal in some places but that was it.
I figure it's because it's a ROM meant for Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam).
Then I flashed stock ROM S5360L_UHKJ2_UUBKJ1_UHKJ2 again, the signal went back to normal, but it restarted again I don't know why. So I was thinking maybe I could flash the DXLC1 ROM with the CSC from the other ROM which is from my region. But I don't know if they are compatible, in case they don't, could you please tell me which ROM can I mix with my CSC region so I can get my phone fully working.
I appreciate your help. Thanks
I need suggestions
Well, I decided to flash the DXLC1 with the UUBKJ1 CSC but I still have no signal, so I flash the DXLC1 with the UUBKJ1 CSC and the UHKJ2 MODEM and signal back to normal, so I had the hope I would solved my problem but it restarts again, it seems that the problem comes with the MODEM from my region, then I tried flash the S5360L_UHKL1_CHLKL1_UHKL1 ROM which has the same MODEM but more recently (dec 2011) and it keeps restarting,
I don't know what else to try, I suppose ROMs different from UH region will not make my network fully work since with DXLC1 ROM I had 1 bar occasionally. I have 2G only for what it's worth.
Please I need some help here ...
Solved
Well guys I'm happy to tell you that I flashed S5360B_UTLC2_ZTOLC1_UTLC1_by_Doky from Brasil and it worked, seems baseband from Brasil also work for my region, and this one doesn't get my phone restarted, so finally I have my phone working as it should. Although I don't know why UHKJ2 baseband which supposed to be for my region make my phone restart itself.
Anyway I'm glad I could solved my problem somehow ...
Thanks anyway.
Okay this is a very long story. I have had this old S4 in my drawer and decided to update and refresh it. I found on SamMobile that lollipop was available for it, so I downloaded that. After flashing that to my S4 the phone could not detect a sim card. I then suddenly realized I had flashed the wrong ROM. I live in Australia and I am connected to a carrier called Telstra, but instead of flashing that one I flashed a ROM meant for unlocked phones. So now I am in trouble and I need your guys help! Please help me out on this and if you need any questions to help me just ask!

No problem at all, you can download another rom, that related to your region and flash it in same way, or if you want to get the most from your device you can try a custom rom and I recommend the following for you if you want to get the best performance
- Echoerom
- Albe95 rom
-Omega Rom

No I have lost connection to my baseband and IMEI. Because I did not backup my EFS. Please help!
Did you try flashing a stock ROM for your carrier?
Try flashing the rom meant for your phone. Things might be fine.
If no..then go to the store they'll fix it for you in no time
Hi XDA,
Sorry if this is a silly question - it's been a long time since i've used a Samsung phone (since the SGS2).
I'm running a custom rom designed for the W935F but I have the Canadian version W935W8 - I'm hoping to flash back my original modem since my signal hasn't been great over the last few days.
I downloaded the official W8 firmware and I see the following files:
AP_G935W8VLU1APB7_CL7109126_QB8573032_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
BL_G935W8VLU1APB7_CL7109126_QB8573032_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G935W8VLU1APB7_CL7109126_QB8573032_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_OYA_G935W8OYA1APB7_CL7109126_QB8573032_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_CSC_OYA_G935W8OYA1APB7_CL7109126_QB8573032_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
Can someone let me know which file I can flash to get back my Canadian modem and how to do it over odin (I remember there are certain boxes that should / shouldn't be checked)?
I got spoiled previously modem.zips just lying around everywhere =P and this phone is so new that simple stuff isn't readily available....
Thanks in advance for all your help!
Hello guys,
I am verry sorry to bother you with this, but I am just to dumb for this part.
I am quite familiar with the whole custom rom business but I try to fix my mothers phone where I installed a Cyanogenmod custom rom (12.1) some time ago.
She experiences some mobile network issues which, I guess, are related to a old baseband / modem version causing troubles.
Can you tell me which version is the right one to flash via Odin or preferably via twrp?
I plan on updating it before installing the lastest 12.1 CM snapshot.
I believe she has the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 International with LTE and Snapdragon processor.
Under baseband version ("About the phone") it says I9505XXUEML6.
(I dont know if this is correct I can remember that I once installed a Google Play Edition Rom to get rid of the bloatware).
The phone was bought in Germany.
I know that you guys are probably busy with more important stuff but I'd really appreciate it if you could quickly help me with that.
Have a great day.
Thank you in advance.
Update: I got the files, changed the cable Odin passed but no version change!
Update 2:
Manually going into fastboot instead of using the reboot menu did it! Thank you so much. (Maybe add that info to the guide to avoid similar problems with othe people)
Thumbs up & good night!
Hi guys,
i was the last few days here in this Forum and tried to educate myselfe about flashing and Roms and all that stuff. But to be honest it seems that this problem is beyond everything i can handle. I really hope you guys can help me.
My plan was that i flash a clean (bloatweare free) ROM on my new (secondhand) Note 4. At first i tried the unofficial CM 13 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/unofficial-cm13-0-910f-g-t3243386) mod. Everything was fine until i recognized that i dont have wifi. All i got was a weird WLAN-MAC (02.00.00.00.00.00). I just coudlnt enable my WIFI.
(ROM-Flashing with odin (3.09) and TWRP Indian Version (twrp-3.0.2-0-trltedt.img.tar)
I just thought its maybe the ROM which just doesnt fit to my mobile, so i tried the official nightly version from the CM Site Version 12.1 (https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=trltexx) But no success with that one either. The same problem. At that point i was pretty clueless about whats happening here and i started to panic a little. I was searching a few days about the WIFI Problem but coudltn find any solution. There was a Nexus-thread with the same problem but they didnt find a solution either.
At this point i was pretty sure that i messed up my mobile but i didnt give up.
I found the Nameless Rom (5.1.1.) here in this Forum and i tried it. The flashing was without any problems... and i was really happy that the first setup asked my about my wifi...until i recognized that this time the problem was that my Note4 couldnt find my SIM. Its really crazy
I tried everything. I tried to flash it again with different bootloaders and modems (from the ROM-Thread) and then i recognized that this time my SIM works but my WIFI wasnt there anymore. I dont know what to do anymore.

Please help me. I dont know what to do anymore :/ I am a noob, so please forgive me if i missed to give you important information. If you give me advice i will give you any information you need about my mobile!
Thanks for your help!
This is a really weird issue. I have never heard of this before. Try flashing the stock ROM with ODIN.
Good luck.
Thank you for you replay. I was thinking the same and read a little about it.
I have downloaded SamFirm and tried to download the correct firmware for my mobile. But unfortunatly thats not so easy as i thought.
MY modelnumber is SM-N910G. Since my mobile is manufactured in Thailand i assume that the software needs the region code from this country but i cant find the right one. Is Thailand even the right one?
Based on the pictures attached in the orignal post can you maybe help me to find out which code is the correct one?!
if someone finds this thread and has the same problem: I solved it by installing Dr.Ketan's ROM
