Hi peeps,
So i tried flashing a leaked firmware of the 4.4 Touchwiz rom for my i9505. All fine, i pass the setup page using wifi. However when i disable my wifi my phone doesnt connect to my carrier EE(Tmobile uk) and when I goto mobile networks, it doesnt detect my sim card, i get "insert sim card"
Now i have gone back to 4.3, currently using Golden eye rom...i recommend this rom. However when trying a later leak of 4.4 by Wanam im still having the same issue. I have searched and searched and no one is having this issue...so far. I have update BL for 4.4
My concern is that the day samsung finally release an official 4.4, my phone wont work. Any one with a solution?

I used Odin to flash a NC2 firmware. I found the firmware in the thread will the leaked KK files. After flashing that firmware ive been unable to connect to Net 10 service with either a ATT or Tmobile SIM card. If i put the Verizon SIM in, i almost immediately see 3G is available. I flashed a second (updated) firmware, and i still have this issue.
Is this a known issue? Anyone else have this issue? Im using BigginsROM cause flashing Hyperdrive causes a black screen when booting. I presume its cause HyperDrive isnt on NC2/NC4 yet. I hope this isnt permanent cause itd defeat the entire purpose of spending $900+ on the phone and accesories.
Any info/help would be greatly appreciated. If ive merely derped something feel free to let me know.

I installed a SIM card info app. The app says that the phone is network locked to Verizon. The phone number that is showed is associated with the Net 10 AT&T SIM. Still says network locked and SIM operator is Verizon.
While further researching the issue i found that the servce menu reports "Network: UNBLOCK." The conclusion is that that means the phone is SIM locked. How in the world would i have managed to lock my phone?
While even further researching the issue i found that it might be the NC4 ROM that i flashed when i was having problems getting the KK leak to boot.

Hey all, just a few days ago my rooted Galaxy S4 SGH-i337m running KitKat 4.4.2 NE1 with Fido Canada suddenly said "Emergency Calls Only".
I rebooted it and it says :"your sim card does not allow a connection to this network". It has been working great for months until now. I have removed battery, sim card reset to factory, wiped cache and reloaded again. My sim card works fine in my Motorola RAZR, no problems whatsoever.
This is what I used with Odin:I337MVLUFNE1_I337MOYAFNE2_FMC. Still same issue. WiFi and everything else works just fine. APN is all fine also.
My S4 is not unlocked, just rooted ( but now it isnt after factory image reset.
Dunno what to do. I have even put a new Sim Card in but to no avail and it works also with my Motorola RAZR.
Any ideas??? Knox has been tripped so if I have to send it away, wonder how much it will cost?
Thanks
Kind of figured out that the NV/RUIM:SIM was messed up because my phone was picking up all the networks so it had to be something fairly simple. SO I downloaded Rogers KitKat from Firmware site ( so I thought ) and flashed it thru Odin 3.07. After it had finished and I had wiped my phone with Philz to load a new ROM I was shocked that it was Version 4.2.2!!!!
Now my connection is back, and the menu for unlocking the phone was all there so I did that while I was at it. Don't have another carriers Sim card to test it out but I followed instructions to a Tee and I am assuming that it worked.
Just have the WiFi/sound problems to deal with. I am ****ting car sized bricks as I thought you couldn't downgrade like that!!! I hope I can upgrade again as I had no problems with the 4.4.2.
Will search the Forums some more but in case anyone has the answer, please let me know as I am at work so time is limited.
Can I now load 4.4.2 Stock Fido Formware back onto my phone or will it totally screw up??? Knox was already tripped so I have nothing to lose
So i recently flashed my device. I have an att note 3 i am having troubles using the wifi because everytime i turn it off or reset it the phone wont remember the wifi password or the wifi will get stuck on. I used to have 4.4.4 kitkat on it but when i flashed it i couldnt find the kitkat 4.4.4 and could only find a kitkat 4.4.2 that would work with my phone and actually flash my device i used for a tablet with an old sim card not connected to the network. I recently tried to put my girlfriends sim card in and update it off the att network but it wouldnt connect to the network even with her sim card in the device. I am having alot of trouble and its starting to cause fights between me and her and so i really need some help on how to fix this and update it. possibly a full factory reset. Also i removed a few of the att app that come on the phone the phone is rooted and superu is perm installed even when i factory reset through the boot settings it still is there. if anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
So yesterday I was messing around with my i9500 that I've upgraded to Lollipop.. due to rooting issues, I decided to downgrade back to KitKat (flashing the stock rom using Odin)
however, as I fixed all the rooting issues, I've encountered a new one - my sim card seems to be no longer functioning (even though it is inserted, the phone claims that no sim is inserted
any tips? I rely on data and phone calling as a large part of my phone ._.
help!
Hi all,
I have a strange issue that I don't know how to fix.
This evening while using my phone I suddenly got SIM card not recognized message. I have tried these things to no avail:
-In "Settings" I can find my networks but my phone won't connect on them
-Powering down, pulling my SIM card out and reinserting it. No change
-Since I'm on CM12 I did factory reset and rolling back on previous versions of Nightly's. Still no change
-Again doing factory reset and installing SlimKat 9.0. No change
-Rolling even more back after another full wipe to SlimKat stable 7.0. Still got "Insert Sim Card"
I have flashed latest modem and bootloader when I migrated from SlimKat to CM12 since I was loosing signal when locking phone and that worked all until this evening.
Can anyone help please?
EDIT:
The model is GT-I9505 jfltexx
Update:
Just installed, again, 2/3G and LTE modems... no change
Inserted SIM card fro my wife... no change
You likely have a hardware issue. But before you go and replace the SIM card slot, revert to a stock ROM and see if that resolves the issue. Start with stock 4.4.2 and see if that works, then roll back to stock 4.2.2 if it doesn't. With luck, rolling back to one of the stock versions will resolve your problem. If it does, then you should be able to migrate back to SlimKat. If it doesn't, it will cost you about $10 USD (€9.41, BAM/KM18.35).
I encountered the same issue, and in my case not only was the SIM tray damaged but I had also lost my SIM unlock. Only by downgrading to 4.2.2 was I able to figure out that the SIM unlock was gone, but it wasn't until I had replaced the SIM card slot that I could do something about it.
