Ok so I been trying to unlock my phone to use it with gosmart, so I have been flashing all types of stuff to my phone lately so I'm not sure what caused it but I have no sound or Google now or youtube anything that requires sound to function. Google now and YouTube open but trying to search or start a video doesn't work.
Tried flashing all types of ROMs to fix it to no avail. Also failed at getting it to work on go smart (T-Mobile mvno) as well. How do I fix my mic and sound problems? Also while I asking, since they all have the same hardware why can't I just flash a T-Mobile ROM and T-Mobile baseband and just use it as a gsm device?
I had the same issue
I followed this guide
Spiricore’s Extra Safe Root-To-ROM Guide
search for it and follow it exactly and it will fix your phone.
I had the same exact issue along with my dialer freezing, did this guide and now I am working again. I think when I was flashing I wasn't wiping the phone good enough, this guide tells you to wipe each thing 3 times even though its tedious I did it and it worked when nothing else did.
Nope didn't work. Wiped everything multiple times and reinstall cm nightly, didn't work

The reason why you can't just flash a TMO rom is because they don't have the exact same hardware, there are carrier specific options in the kernel. I repeat, do NOT just flash a TMO rom over your Sprint S4, it will brick. (I've done it to my S3 and it didn't go so well.) If you want the GSM rom, make sure you either flash a Sprint kernel over the TMO rom immediately without rebooting, or (I would recommend) exchange the boot.img files from a Sprint rom over to the TMO rom and remove the device checks. But if anything happens (if you brick) you're on your own.
As for the first question, you can try flashing over a different kernel and make sure it's either aosp or tw depending on your rom. Also wipe data+dalvik+cache. I haven't had that happen to me though...

My Phone:
...Make: Dream
...SIM Card: Unlocked
...ROM: CyanogenMod Latest (as of Jan 04, 2010)
...Other Applications Installed: PhoneFusion
...Service Provider: T-Mobile
When Issue Started: 1 week prior
User's Phone:
...Make: Samsung (unknown model)
...SIM Card: Locked
...Service Provider: AT&T
-----
Issue: User cannot call me. It rings once and then disconnects. User can call any other T-Mobile phone in my area. I have no other issues calling or receiving
-----
Troubleshooting steps that have been performed:
...Turn off both phones for 2 hours - fail
...Take out SIM card and put back in - fail
...Kill any call forwarding on phones - fail
...User goes to AT&T store and receives new SIM card and phone - fail
...Checked for possible billing issues or blocked (banned) numbers - fail
...Wiped back to factory defaults (with the original ROM included that had the telnet vuln) and followed the steps to upgrade back to the latest version of CyanogenMod rom - fail
* Fail means it did not successfully resolve the issue of me not being able to receive the user's call
Anymore troubleshooting suggestions?
Maybe the att user cant call tmobile users or their phone is messed up?

Topic is fine and is defiantly not filled with any misconceptions:
dilemma - is a problem offering at least two solutions or possibilities, of which none are practically acceptable.
I would try another rom. As recently as yesterday my friend had a problem with his hero (CDMA) where he was unable to sent a text message to his girl friend. I fixed it by rooting and installing a custom rom.
First, I would unroot and get the tmo OTA update and see if it works (you could also try the custom stock rom with root here if you don't want to.
Second, try a different rom and make sure you don't install any applications.
Third, what SPL do you have, and radio for that matter.
Upgrade to the 26I radio in my sig to make sure it isn't something that easy. Remember, if you flash the nbh file it will downgrade your radio as well.
If all else fails, I would try the 1.33.2005 SPL, be sure you meet the requirements both board type and radio before flashing.
Hey Evilkorn,
Thanks for responding. Ace had posted that comment before I reworded the post. I will admit it was kind of confusion.
I am actually not sure of what I have other than CyanogenMod 4.2.12. Is there someplace I can go to find which version I have. If it would be easier to start from the beginning, as far as rooting and then updating everything from the factory defaults, I wouldn't mind. Time to me is not as important as getting the issue resolved.
I just saw on the homepage of Cyanogenmod.com that they released 4.2.13. Wonder if that would fix my issue. CM Updater isn't finding the ROM update yet so perhaps I should manually download and flash.
only thing I could suggest tell your friend to block the call (*67) and make sure that the caller isnt blacklisted, open the contact and select edit, make sure they arent checked to send call to voicemail
I went through the same thing a month ago, after it was all said and done...By mistake, I blacklisted the friend(which it turns out, can be easy to do if you have "fat fingers" when answering a call lol)
AT&T had thought the same thing. Actually, I just upgraded to 4.2.13 and it fixed my issue. There is a good chance that if I wiped ALT+W and then re-applied the previous .12 CyanogenMOD ROM that that could fixed my issue.
I never really though it was the ROM since I could get a hold of everyone else. How odd.
Thanks for all your help!
Hi,
Been using custom ROMS on my Hero since new with no probs. Last Thursday after receiving an SMS I am unable to make or receive phone call and txts. My mobile internet still works fine. When a phone call is made to my phone the caller receives a message that the number is no longer available, though if I switch the phone off the caller gets put through to my voicebox. My provider has confirmed that there are no blocks etc on my phone or account, this is also proved as when I put my SIM in another phone all works as usual.
I am using Villain ROM 12 and the latest radio. I have set the phone to GSM only, automatic etc. I have reinstalled the ROM wiping everything etc and have tried flashing different radios.
The only thing I can think to try now is to flash a stock ROM. Which would be best (its a UK orange phone) and will I then lose root etc.
Most probably though I fear the cellular chip is dead.
Any other ideas and which stock ROM should I try, oh yes I bought the phone of ebay new and unopened, will I be able to return it somewhere for repai HTC ???
Thanks for reading and for any help
Hmmm,... Strange one is this.
First thing I would try if I were you is to flash a generic ROM through your custom recovery,....
One from http://android.modaco.com/content/h...oms-radios-in-update-zip-format-for-gsm-hero/
Worth a shot,....
If you get the same result,.... Run an RUU .exe. This will unroot so if it is successful you will have to go through the whole rigmarole of installing a custom recovery again to be able to flash custom ROMs.
Dont know what else to suggest sorry.
Oh well, tried stock roms and still the same problem. Looks like it must be the pgones hardware.
Any one recommend a good repairer here in the UK
Cheers
Hello, currently I have a Lg gt540f from a friend. He requested me to change the OS to CyanogenMod. This is a mexican phone, from the company Telcel. He wants to free the phone in order to use it with other carriers.
I already flashed ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.8 and CyanogenMod 2.2, I think this is the 6.1. However after doing this I keep getting no cellphone signal at all. I changed the APN to the carrier's one and the issue continued. I've changed Sim cards, and tried them on different phones and they all work, except on this one. This makes me think the problem is the baseband I have on this OS. So I upgraded to CM 7 with the same result. After doing this I cleared the Dalvik cache and reinstall the ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.8 and CyanogenMod 2.2 downloaded from a different link, but issue continues.
I've read about this on other phones like Motorola Droid, and what they do to fix this issue is to change the baseband to telus or argentina personal. Both of them are quadband with 850/1900 that I need. They do this by loading a Recovery name Androidiani, however I haven't been able to find it for this cellphone.
Is there another way I can change this baseband?? And could you help me a little explaining me the steps? I'm actually new at playing with Android phones and flashing them.
Thank you for your time.
Hello, I found the answer to my problem.
Actually the cyanogenmod I'm using is band compatible with the phone. This is because this CM version is quadband which includes the bands I needed. My problem was actually that I thought that by flashing a custome ROM I will be setting the Radio into S-OFF, automaticly unlocking my carrier phone restrictions. But I was wrong. Some Android devices you can just flash a new kernel, gain temp root access and swith the carrier radio into S-OFF, however this phone is not the case. To erase my carrier restictions I had to purchuse a unlock code and insert it on the phone. This is done with the IMEI.
Thank you for your time.
Hello everyone,
My friend bought a SGH-I337M off of Kijiji. He's unlocked it and activated AWS to work on WIND Mobile. He still has a couple problems though:
1. He cannot make phone calls
2. After sending an SMS, the phone will eventually crash to a SAMSUNG logo and reboot.
After the phone reboots, the phone will freeze and the prompt "The process system has crashed."
Now as I'm typing this, after a factory reset, the phone has crashed by itself to the SAMSUNG logo, without any interaction from me beyond the initial setup. Data on WIND does work.
He is on 4.4.2 and his baseband version is I337MVLUFNI2.
Kernel number is 3.4.0-2767305.
Build #KOT49H.I337MVLUFNI2.
SE is Enforcing.
Secure boot type is SAMSUNG.
I've only had experince flashing ROMs and such on a S2, and I've bricked an S3 by not knowing what I was doing and using Triangle Away, so I would like to avoid a repeat of that.
He still has stock recovery.
If someone could give me some links and maybe explain what I might need to do, the help will be most appreciated.
Since I wasn't sure what he had done, I started from scratch and flash CF-AutoRoot, then CWM, and then GoldenEye ROM, then the TLS-I337MVLUFNI2. This seems to have fixed the random crashing, however he cannot make calls. I can answer on my phone, but there is no audio, and his phone has no audio either.
Does anyone know what the problem might be at this point? We can't test any other carriers as I only have regular SIM cards. Could it be a mic problem? The phone is second hand.

I've had a few mobile data related issues on a few different ROMs now, and am looking for any solutions. The first problem I've been having recently is where my phone randomly reports that there is no SIM card inserted and won't make or receive calls and cellular data doesn't work. Simply rebooting or removing and re-inserting the SIM will instantly fix the issue but I'd prefer to find a solution so I don't have to reboot my phone all the time. Another new issue I've noticed is where the signal strength remains constant but the "ASU" goes from 40 or so to 99 and my bars appear to drop to nothing, this issue may have only started after my most recent install of lineage. I have the US variant of the phone and currently have Lineage OS 14.1 but even when previously on an unmodified copy of EUI 21s, albeit after installed after a few other ROMs, I was getting this issue. Does anyone have any ideas why I might be having these issues, or any ideas on what to try to fix them? Any insight is appreciated!
in my case I have the x722 and this does not recognize any SIM at any time
Did you try factory resetting? Are your APN settings for your carrier correct? It could be a lot of things. If you bought it in the U.S. from a U.S. store, you'll probably be able to RMA it (easier than the rest of us, at least). If the issue persists, I'd say open a case and ask for a replacement because it's your best option.
When did these issues start? From the beginning? If not, did you flash the modem correctly?

I don't remember exactly when I started having these problems to be completely honest, I just know that on EUI, after once flashing to lineage then back to EUI, I was having issues with it saying NO SIM INSERTED and now after flashing to Lineage and re flashing the 19s modem I am still having issues. I suppose I can try to RMA since I bought it at launch on LeEco's US store. Though I may have passed a year of ownership so I may be out of warranty . I don't really know what else to try, maybe this?
My understanding of this phone is, flashing stock rom (either US version or CN version), whose size is about 1.4g bytes, can give you the modem.
All the roms developed here do not have modem images.
I have faced the same issue trying installing custom ROM while sim card inserted.
The solution for me is to remove the sim try completely
Fastboot this (chinese stock) rom : https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0By_Lx-WrwGa7cnZMZWF4QUdmQm8&export=download
complete the installation normally using your wifi and then insert sim tray with sim. Hurray ! I got that working.
With this chinese stock rom I got everything what I wanted google play store, assistant and etc. (except android > 6)

First thing don't flash this ROM is not a good idea bad advice.
Try flashing 727 19s modern backup all on computer and do a hard reset.
Let know if this helps?

Haven't tried 727 19s modem backup, but what works for me is this ROM.
I know this ROM is in chinese and you might struggle on changing the stuff but when I faced the issue, the only thing I needed is to make the device usable whatever it'll cost.
It'll be great if modem backup thing will work for anybody. This ROM might be the last option for you.

If you flashing that ROM with their firmware if you have a big problem you can't fix it you are bricked 727 pro users should flash that firmware ect!
Their averaging one brick a day flash your own firmware stay safe.
