Hi there,
after updating to official Froyo JPO/JPP/JP3 my radio doesn't work no more:
It shows signal after entering the SIM code
I can't make a call as it doesn't seem to connect to the network, although it shows network coverage.
I can't receive calls as well (tested with a landline).
The IMEI is still there and correct.
Product Code is I9000HKDDBT
Restoring old backups via Nandroid doesn't help
I wonder, what could be the reason. Reflashing different ROMs doesn't help (tried with JF3, JPO official, DocRom v8, ...). Supposing it could have something to do with /efs, I already restored my /efs folder to an earlier state, but it didn't work either. Could anyone tell me the correct permissions, owners and groups of the files within /efs? Or is it something totally different?
Thanks for your help!
Noone here that knows something about that?
I have the same problem i think. I can download apps from the market but can't recieve or make texts or calls.
can anyone help?
Same issue here.
Phone shows signal but if you show the status screen it only shows emergency call only.
Signal showing, according to the Debug it is showing 7 antenas nearby, also the network lock code is off for every lock, so i dont know...
is a Tmobile originally branded but flashed with darkys rom. PReviously was unlocked using the one click method,
does you phone display a baseband?
I had a jp3 in today that had no baseband
just flashed it using odin with jpy and it worked fine.
is a Tmobile originally branded but flashed with darkys rom. PReviously was unlocked using the one click method,
If it worked before that install then go back to the original works then you know where the problem is .

Me too, Flash the JPY or other firmware from uk orange firmware, has band and signal covered, but only emergency calls only at some places, specially at home.
hope someone can solve this problem
Hi all,
I bought a Unlock Milestone 2 in Brazil and have a big problem.
It only works with a Oi mobile operator network, the others Claro, TIM and VIVO signal does not appear, but the internet works.
My M2 has the custom retail firmware from Brazil and I've done hard reset, reinstall the firmware and it still in emergency call.
I read something about what may be the baseband, but how can I get and install?
My phone is rooted with z4root.
Best regards.

I dont have this problem
Try APN Brasil app, you can find it on Android Market. You just need to open and tap "Configurar APNs" (Configure APNs).
I bought my Milestone2 from TIM and used on Oi for some time, now im using in TIM without any problems using APN Brasil.
I only used APN BRASIL.
Have you tried to reflash your device with Brazilian Stock ROM?Try to change to WCDMA preferred or WCDMA only. To do this, open dialpad and press:
*#*#4636#*#*
If you reflash, dont forgot to reinstall APN Brasil.
Hope it works, buddy!
Remains the same.
The cellphone get signal after minutes, stay 10 minutes with signal, i used.. but suddenly appears the "emergency call only" message

Do you change the baseband to 2G ?
Similar Problem
I have an lg vs980 and I was using it with H2O wireless and later I changed to Simple Mobile. I'm living in Puerto Rico. The phone was working all right and, suddenly, one day it was always displaying 'emergency calls only'.
I did factory reset, then I reflashed stock lollipop and it was like nothing happened, keeps displaying 'emergency calls only'.
Then I found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2394689 and applied the patch but didn't seem to resolve the problem.
As a last resort I tried flashing cm 12.1 and before first boot applied the patch from the cited thread but no result, keeps displaying 'emergency calls only'.
Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
phone works fine when it is on 2G.. but as soon as i switch to 3G the H is displayed for a few seconds and then i lose connectivity.. i have to switch it back to 2G to get back connectivity.. i have tried changing the base band with the defy base band switcher.. no use.. But 3G works on other phones with my sim..
Currently on WhiteRabbit 1.5.2 plus.. but i have had the same problem on all the roms i have tried..
Is there a solution?? or is my device faulty??
3g problem solution
try cm9 latest by quarx u will get ur solution ..
but before going for latest flash
flash this rom first i.e CM9-ICS-MR1-120305-jordan.zip
because u can set ur apn and sync ur accounts like facebook gmail etc.
as the latest roms doesnt support apn settings automatically neither manually.
so flash this first and then flash ur latest rom by quarx..
p.s. when flashing latest rom no need delete any thing simply install from .zip over the previous rom
I had a similar experience and might have run into a solution, see

cheers,

hmm but i had this problem even when i went back to the rooted stock sbf..
it's not just that 3G doesn't work.. i lose all connectivity and cant call also..
and i tried all the 3G fixes.. last thing i'll do is try is check if it works in the stock sbf.. otherwise i'll go to the service center and get it checked..
Hi, I'm from India and have a GT-I9500 which has been running flawlessly for the past 1 year on BSNL service right up to OS version 4.4.2 firmware vers. I9500XXUFNE4. Since then I upgraded the firmware twice to I9500XXUFNG1 and subsequently to I9500XXUFNI2. Midway while using firmware I9500XUFNG1 in rooted version, I started noticing that my phone data would run normally for a while and then suddenly the data connectivity would drop from H+ mode to 3G but would not return to H+ even though I know that I am in an area that has consistently strong H+ signal. The only option to get H+ mode back was to go to Settings/More networks/Mobile networks/Network mode/ and change the setting to WCDMA only mode for two minutes and then switch back to WCDMA/GSM(autoconnect), then the phone would get H+ service back again for a few hours. I thought that it might have been some problem caused by rooting, so when the latest firmware (I9500XXUFNI2) was released this month I upgraded the firmware but since I lost root on upgrade, I did not root the phone, fearing the problem will come back since I thought root was causing it.
Now in stock firmware running on I9500XXUFNI2 I am still getting the same problem of the phone dropping to 3G mode from H+ and not reverting back ( the speed is not even 2G. Just the 3G icon shows it - data packets hardly get transferred) and I can rectify it only by switching to WCDMA mode and back to autoconnect, as previously stated.
I checked online for solutions, but I don't seem to see anyone facing such an issue.
I thought it could be a service provider problem, so I used SIMs from Idea and Airtel as well, but while using those networks also, the same problem persists, so I have deduced it is a problem pertaining to the phone only. Not sure if it is a hardware malfunction or firmware based.
Does anybody else from India running the latest firmware for GT-I9500 have similar problems, and is there a solution?
Thanks.

The problem is with the modem firmware. Change it back to the original or get a kernel.

Thank you, Devilslasher. Could you please link me to a thread where they have listed the original modem firmware? I did a search under the Samsung S4 subsection on xda but could not find any thread where modems/radios for Indian version was hosted.
Thanks in advance.
