i have this galaxy s4 from at&t i have no idea who did this but if you see in the image , you will see different baseband and build version !!
now wifi is not turning on and no sound i don't know about other issue , but how to fix this please ??? should i install mdl firmware and will it fix this as firmware i.e build version is different from baseband and installing mdl stock firmware will fix everything ??
and please when you install firmware through odin , you put the file in PDA right ???

You're on mdl firmware. Flash that in Odin, PDA slot
by flashing mdl firmware everything will match i.e baseband is mdl right now , so just flash mdl stock firmware in odin by selecting in pda right ??

Ok.bud no worries. Having a different baseband than your build isn't an issue. However it looks like. Your on official mf3 which means your bootloader is locked which is why you can't Odin amdl. flash the mf3 baseband through Odin. Bc having a old baseband can stop your Wi-Fi from turning on. Or Odin the whole mf3 stock rom
The locked boot loader stops you from flashing back to previous builds but it won't stop you from odining the mf3 stock Rom. You have options. Don't worry though bc nothing is broke. It's not an emergency bud.
Worked mannnn thank-you !!! i flashed stock baseband of mf3 via odin , and then fixed everything phone is perfect

hello, this is the first time i am posting on the forum so i dont know if the post is in the right place. i have a samsung galaxy s4 i9500 from mauritius. but it is infact a 4-core phone, i guess they modified it for distribution here. i download the pre-rooted rom from djembey for i9505 and tried to flash my mobile. the problem is that it gets stuck. At first it got stuck several times on setup connection but now it gets stuck at cache.img.ext4 and the phone will not even turn on. it says firmware upgrade encountered an issue and asks to recover using kies. can anyone here please help. i tried with different versions of odin and even changed my usb cable and tried on different usb ports.
my phone variant is i9500XXUAMDE
I think you are using the wrong firmware. You ideally should use i9500 not i9505. Both are different. Try using pre rooted i9500 or download the stock from sammobile and try flashing using odin

i am downloading a stock firmware to install back. But why is the flash process stuck on cache.img.ext4? im afraid it will still be the same even if i flash with an i9500 firmware.
definitely a wrong firmware

If you have an i9500 phone you should flash a i9500 firmware.
It's not that hard really.
Im having the following issue and was wondering if anyone can help
I have been using MVLUAMG1 for a while now as my baseband which is the latest Rogers/Fido modem/baseband and upgraded to foxhound 1.4 and then 1.5 from older foxhound versions
After installing the rom im trying to update the modem from MVLUAMDJ to MVLUAMG1. I tried it via mobile Odin which was neevr an issue before and everything seemed to go ok but baseband still shows MVLUAMDJ in settings
I tried via odin on my computer and get auth fail at the last part (writing)
Issue started with Foxhound 1.4 which is based on XXUBMGA firmware. Tested ROMS that are not XXUBMGA based and seems to work ok
any ideas or alternatives?
Seems that you have not tried flashing a zip of a modem in a custom recovery...

Unfortunately that modem is not flashable via recovery for some reason. Only ways to flash is is mobile odin or regular odin.
Trust me I would like nothing more then a flashable zip that works of this modem
Goal --> Update the modem to MK2
Problems and Info:
- My Baseband MF9
- My software MF9
- Rom - TriForce 4.3
- Custom kernel KT
- Download Mode --> Write Protection Enable
- I tried to update the modem but it fails in Odin probably cause of the write protection
- No, I dont have knox -_-
Any idea? Im new to samsung devices. Sorry for my english

Try the zip by unknownforce.

I tried the unknown force mk2 modem only and didnt work, it says fail after flashing via odin. As result of the fail, it removed my recovery and when I reboot the phone it has no sound
You should have done some more research. MK2 modem on some MF9 ROMs causes sound loss. Upgrade to the latest Triforce and Odin the modem again. You might have to try several times to get it to stick.

You are on mf9 the boot loader is not locked. And I meant the mk2 modem zip not Odin file.

No. It shouldn't fail. You're probably trying to flash the entire firmware package. THAT won't work. You need to flash the modem related files ONLY

There is no locked bootloader...only a secured one. Every L720 I've had to unlock never failed the MDC flash in Odin. Are you SURE you have the MDC modem and are you SURE you have an L720? Check the sticker in the back and in download mode it tells you the model.

Yes i look at about device is L720 with MF9 firmware..
Its correct.. Its no problems using odin 1.85 right? Or must specific version?
THAT might be why! Let's move into the present and try it on Odin 3.07 or 3.09 (I personally use 3.09 all the time because...well its the most recent one).

OK I was running negalite rom mk2. I updated the modem to nae with odin but the phone did not boot for like 6 or 7 minutes so I pulled the battery and restarted the phone. It booted up fine and I then booted into recovery and installed the nae version of negalite. I had not noticed my baseband still says mk2. Now I can't update the modem and I am having trouble connecting to my wifi where ever I go. Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Odin the nae modem.. should work
