Hi,
I have looked all over this website and others for the solution to my problem. If there is a thread for this then I am sorry, but I couldnt find it.
I recently moved from the US to Mexico. I took my SPH-L720 to a phone technician to get my SIM unlocked and am now using it on the Iusacell network. Everything was working fine until I tried to install the MK2 update. The OTA update downloaded just fine, but when it is installing it gets about halfway and then displays a dead Android robot with a red triangle and an exclamation mark and the word "Error".
I do not believe that the phone technician rooted my phone. I think he flashed my modem to MDC. My build number is MJA. My software version is MDC.
Can anybody help me? My phone seems quirky after the MJA update, especially battery life. I am hoping MK2 will fix everything. Also, I have a Mac and not a PC.

Sounds like there is a whole lot going on with your phone setup with so many inconsistancies.
If the Modem(baseband) is MDC - which it woul probably have had to be to do the SIM unlock stuff, and your build is MJA but your software version is MDC you've got a lot of stuff to look at.
How did the tech flash your phone? PC Odin? or via a zip/recovery. If it was flashed via a custom recovery (meaning you have one on your phone) then the OTA will fail/error. Same thing with a custom kernel - failure of OTA. Stock boot/kernels are required for OTAs to work.
The latest update is actually MK2 and not MJA by the way.
You can flash a .tar using Heimdal. Sammobile has the full MK2 one here.
BUT you'll probably need to do some fancy stuff with you APNs to get it to work on your current network - time to see tech who helped you again.

Thanks for replying so quickly! I am very new to all of this stuff. If I flash the .tar file will that fix everything? Do I need to root my phone to flash the .tar file? Also, will my SIM remain unlocked or will it relock?
As for the APN, I think I already know all of the necessary info to input because when the tech unlocked the SIM he didn't input the APN info.
BY the way I know MK2 is the latest build and that is why I am trying to update from MJA to MK2. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear in the OP.
Sorry, I also forgot to mention that I don't know if the technician flashed it with Odin or a zip/recovery because I left my phone there for a few hours. Is there a way to check?

See if you have a custom recovery.
Boot to recovery - Power off. Then Power on+Volume Up+Home button and see if something like CWM, TWRP or Philz recovery loads.
If it is just Spring/Samsung recovery then he flashed the modem via Odin and not a custom recovery. Either way just power off to boot again.

It is the stock Samsung recovery. I guess he used Odin.
Okay, so long story short AT&T has cockblocked me from recovering my phone. I know, it has a locked bootloader. I get that. But let me start from the beginning. I was rooted (4.3), and my phone auto updated to KK, and essentially soft-bricked my phone. Well, I had to flash my 4.3 firmware (or so I thought) back onto my phone through Odin. The firmware turned out to be 4.2.2, and all of it failed to flash except the modem. It still started up fine, but I couldn't connect to wifi. It wasn't even an option to turn it on. Turns out I was still on 4.3, with a baseband of MF3, and a build number ending in MK2. I didn't know how to fix this, so I've kinda flashed it with all sorts of things hoping it would help. I've tried all variations of 4.2.2 seeing if I can get things to be all either MF3 or MK2, so far no luck. Well today I tried to flash it with MK2 firmware, and it went like 95% through, and failed. Restarted, and it says "System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone."
This is because of the bootloader, I get it.
The 4.2.2 modem is the only thing to successfully flash. Any clues why? Any clues onto how to recover my phone at all? You guys are true geniuses, please help.
Also, my device status is still on "custom" with the unlocked icon.
Any help would be tremendous, as I feel like a complete and utter moron. I have both Windows 7 & Linux Mint my use, so suggest anything. Please. I'm begging you.
I had the same problem i soft bricked my phone by installing MF3 and i was already on MK2. Just download MK2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621279 flash first only AP_I337UCUEMK2_1921628_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 by using PDA on oDin see if that fixes your problem.

Do you know of a good repository or place were i can download basebands updates (Modem.bin) for my i337?
If i upload a phone baseband i337 with a i337m, would it work?
Never mind found the solution in the forum. Thx
Sent from my GT-I9505G using xda app-developers app
I recently bit off more than I could chew with my S4 (I337). I had 4.4.2 KitKat on it and wanted to root it to add teathering. I decided thought there was no root for 4.4.2 so I thought I would try downgrading to 4.3 then root. This seemed best because I didn't like the way the SD card is handled in 4.4.2 and some of my apps (like ftp server) have stopped working.
When I got the phone back up from flashing with Odin it says it has version 4.3. My WiFi will not turn on. If I slide the switch to on it slides right back to off and the phone tells me that an operation was block (can't remember the full verbage. I have installed and attempted to install many things on my phone. I have used recovery mode / Odin3 and Kies (Kies doesn't allow much).
At this point I just would like to get my phone back to 4.4.2 with the WiFi working. Then I can restore my backup and be back to square one with a lesson learned.
I have an I337 that currently thinks it has version 4.3 on it. The baseband version is I337UCUFNC1 currently. The build number is JSS15J.I337UCUEMK2.
If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. I have read and tried many things over a two day period and finally decided to ask for help.
Had this issue before on my Bell Canada S4, but don't recall exact way to fix it.
Think the solution was to find an older (might be newer) stock. I think I used a different version like the Telus Canada version as well and it ended up working. Then you update through kies after.

Wifi does not work because of the modem/kernel mismatch, i.e. MDB modem and MK2 kernel. Not sure what your goal was when you began flashing your phone but since you fortunately did not flash teh MK2 bootloader you are still able to locate the MDB full odin tar and flash back to stock which will resolve your issue.

If you don't care about losing your MDB unlocked bootloader you can get to the latest kitkat firmware by flashing the NB1 full odin tar from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674223, then once flashing is complete go to settings/more/about phone/software update then take the ota update to NC1 which is the latest kitkat version for our phone.
But what I would do is keep your unlocked MDB bootloader and since you already flashed the MK2 AP file you can get your phone running well again by flashing the MK2 modem: https://mega.co.nz/#!pwESna5I!YK7EKG37xXIG1ReB-Z-mfSMoXNkXQ9t2EdMK9ofgJKg
From there, there are still a number of options available to get to kitkat which I won't get into.

excited to give this a try. rooted with the downgrade method a couple months ago but left with a non-wifi device. my only issue is that the thread says it's for I337UCUFNC1 and our devices are on jss15j.i337ucuemk2. will this fix still work? I've heard on other threads on the subject that the modem kernel doesn't match up with the flashed rom or build number or something.

Do you already fix it??? cause i have the same problem
Same question, different thread!
Not even an hour ago did I answer the same question in a different thread: How do I get WiFi working on my S4?
Well here you go.
My original answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-4-4-2-nb1-t2850878/post54978150#post54978150
The problem is, in order to get WiFi working, you need to install the NB1 modules, but to do that, you need to install Safestrap. However, you can not install Safestrap because the app keeps closing on you. There is a simple fix to this, which I will explain later. For now, just read this WHOLE post BEFORE you do anything, and keep in mind that I am NOT held liable if you mess up your phone. Use this at your own risk.
1.) Root your phone
If you're already rooted with something like SuperSU or Superuser, skip this. If not, read ahead. Download and install the Towelroot APK file attached to this post, open it, and click 'make it ra1n'. If your phone didn't reboot, now you have root (they need to trademark that). Now, down below, I also included the APK for SuperSU. Download and install it. Now open it. When you open it, let it install the 'Normal' way, not via the 'TWRP/CWM' way. Also, when it asks you to disable KNOX, say yes, wait a couple of minutes (it will still be loading) and reboot your phone. Open up SuperSU again, click 'Yes' to disable KNOX again, and now you have a good base to start from.
2.) Install Safestrap AFTER fixing the error
The error your are getting is easily fixed. Go to the Play Store and install 'SELinux Mode Changer'. Open it, grant it root access, and change the mode to 'Permissive'. Now, open up Safestrap again (you mentioned you already installed it), and it shouldn't force close. Click 'Install', and if the 'Reboot to Recovery' option below is not grayed out after that then it worked.
3.) Download and install the NB1 modules
On your phone, download the included NB1 modules ZIP file I attached for you, and once that is done you need to reboot. After the Galaxy S4 logo, you'll see a screen that says 'SAFESTRAP: DISABLED' and there will be a little robot. TIP: To enter Safestrap, press the menu button (physical, hardware key) under 'Recovery' at that screen. To continue to Android, press the back key (again, physical) under the 'System' tab. For now, press the menu button under 'Recovery'. Now, click 'Install' which should be in red, click 'Add zips', and navigate to your Downloads folder. Now click on the NB1 modules ZIP you just downloaded. Swipe to install, and reboot. This time, hit the back key under 'System'.
All done!
Now, Android should (and will) boot up, and you'll have working WiFi! If, for some odd reason, you don't have WiFi- do NOT panic! Just search around for the MF3 modules and flash those! All is good, all is good. A lot of this guide was taken from my post about my personal method of SIM unlocking the AT&T Galaxy S4 without the dialer codes or an AT&T SIM. It was just modified a little to work for you.
Remember, hit thanks!

Those are my exact words. Also, the attached files (NB1 modules, SuperSU, Towelroot, etc.) can be found attached to my post in the link above. Have a good night, and best of luck! :good::good::good:

There are custom roms designed to work with Safestrap.
If you want to use the stock rooted rom, you need to use the odin.
Sometime, if there is a conflict between the firmware/bootloader and your modem or between kernel and firmware, there could be problem not getting wifi or call did not work.
Please tell me about your phone.
1. model
2. Baseband
3. Kernel version
3, build number.

You are still on MK2 firmware/bootloader. There must be an error in your software that would prevent you from getting the OTA.
Since you are in MK2 the safestrap version you are using must be 3.71.
You are using the rooted rom so that you see the custom sign every time you boot. I am seeing that sign every time I boot my phone too.
Be patient and let's go step by step.
First try to install the stock MK2 files and see whether you phone works. All the files you need, all the instructions you need to follow, all the options that you can choose can be found here.
I would choose MK2 all in one. Flash it with Odin see the phone is working.

okay thank you so much!! i will try it and re post when iam done ><
I recently got an S4 i337, it was on 4.4.2. I wanted to root and unlock it so i downgraded it to 4.3 using two files from some other thread:
AP_I337UCUEMK2_1921628_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_C ERT.tar.md5
JFLTE_USA_ATT_16G.pit
Phone flashed fine to 4.3, then i had to change modem to USUAMDL. Used saferoot to root and regionlock away to unlock. Long story short after spending two days i was able to root and unlock the phone. I was happy and finally started restoring my data. But i suddenly noticed that there was no sound at all. Now the phone is on mk2 rom and i have no sound whatsoever. When i try to make a call, it hangs. When i try to play some music it says "sorry the player does not support this type of audio file"
I am very frustrated because i have been searching but couldnt find a solution. I cannot flash any other file e.g. mk2 to NB1 or any other MDL rom through odin. I used *#0*# to get to the hardware menu and tested speaker but it doesnt do anything. I still think its a software problem because phone is not able to make any calls either or play music files and hangs. I would greatly appreciate help.
Did you flash back to the mk2 modem? It's a known problem that downgrading it kills audio and sometimes other things. You can flash through safestrap if you can't use odin

Do you still have the MK2 ODIN file? I believe you also need the NON-HLOS.bin from in there. Open it up in 7zip or some archive manager, extract that file, and you should be able to put it in the CP slot and flash through ODIN.
