[Q] Can't call people and no sound - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just flashed a new modem and a wifi fix someone offered with their rom for my galaxy i9505 using odin.
I then flashed the rom with no problems but when i try to call someone my phone just freezes and it crashes also when i try to listen to music the same thing the phone will just crash and no apps are making any sound its like i have muted it.
Ive tried downloading the official firmware and installing that using odin but it still hasn't fixed my problem does anyone know what it could be ?

You must have not odin flashed the correct firmware.
What I would do is to Odin flash the official stock I9505XXUAMDM firmware
which you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2252982
The above link has easy to follow step by step instructions and the download link for the SamMobile
official Odin flash stock firmware as well as the windows Odin software if you need it.
After flashing the stock odin flash firmware the phone will need to be re-rooted.
Doing all of the above should fix the issues you are having with your phone.
Before you odin flash I would recommend that you do a "Factory data reset" by
going into settings>accounts>backup and reset> then click on "Factory data reset".
I would also suggest to create a nandroid backup unless you already have one.
Good luck!

please can someone help me please:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Same happened to me when i used mobile Odin. The bootloader wasn't updated.
Did you use Odin 1.85? And did you tick the option update new bootloader? If not do that.
If did that then wipe cache and data reset from recovery.

yeah i used the wrong version of odin. i used 1.85 now its working, but i didnt select update bootloader, how do i know if it updated the bootloader?
You know if the phone is up and running. Kitkat can't boot without new bootloader. So if the phone is working there is no issues.

just FYI,
if you want to flash TW custom ROM, the best you use is Chenglu CWM. So far I seldom see user complain got problem during flashing with this CWM.
TWRP, some users got problem, some are not.

[q] your device has been modified!

Help! I've reset the flash counter through Triangle Away, unrooted my phone, and even flashed stock rom to my Note 3, but still getting this message: "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available." When I'm trying to update my Note 3. How to fix this? Sorry for noob question.

When you flashed the stock rom was it the ODIN flash rom which can be found and
downloaded from http://SamMobile.com ?
There are a lot of twrp/cwm flashable stock roms but if you want to make your phone stock
so it can get OTA updates the stock official rom must be the odin flash type and you need to
un-install root then do a full wipe before odin flashing the official stock rom.
Good luck!

Hi,
You cannot flash an older version of your firmware without encountering problems.
You need to flash XXUGNG8 or later.
Look here:

Don't forget to wipe data and cache before and after flashing the firmware

Hope this helps.

I just try using Odin 3.07 to flash a original stock rom. However, during the start of flashing, Odin display a 'No Pit File' and stopped.
Moreover, flashing Chainfire or PhilipZ rom just failed.
What's wrong?
I've no problem using Odin before.

The stock rom is from my local Telco. Even when trying to flash a custom rom, the same thing happens.

The firmware listed is the same as what my Telco provides. Still cannot flash with Odin with the same error message.
Do you think is my phone is locked? If so, how to check its status?

downgrade lollipop to kitkat 4.4.2

Hello. Today I installed on my notes 3 SM-N9005 lollipop 5.0 version Poland but I found them a few problems: the first is that the vibration of the keyboard does not work. I found two of the slowdowns in the task manager. Now if I want to return to kitkat I can do fleshando firmware via Odin? ??
+1
I asked the same question with no accurate answer, i found a thread on how to downgrade from leaked ver. Of lolipop and not the official one and i won't risk trying this method, what I'm asking for is it possible to downgrade to official kitkat using odin specially that i have ticked update bootloader button when i flashed official Lolipop.
Will this work or we are risking our mobiles for a brick?
Appreciate if someone answered us with a proven record.
Regards,
however I have seen videos on youtube that have made the downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 fleshando only the firmaware dacendo and then wipe data / cache. I think the same procedure also applies to switch lollipop kitkat.
It's safe to downgrade using odin. I did it myself from the leaked and the official release (both of them with the bootloader updated). In case odin complains about size just check my last posts and use the PIT file I provided.
Sent from my SM-N9005
Hi,
I have downgraded from the Polish Lollipop without using a PIT file - successfully. You will need to carry out a data wipe and factory reset, but it worked fine.
I couldn't... flashing ENC2 with Odin gave me size error, flashing with PIT solved that, but my IMEI and Baseband were gone. I gave up at that point, flashed Lolipop again and am back to normal now.
