[Q] Looking for Stock 4.4.2 for AIO/CRICKET

I have searched everywhere with no luck. My I337Z was 4.4.2 (after OTA) working well, no root, no unlock. Suddenly IMEI and Baseband go null. So what I did first was to restore it to factory settings, which didnt work and also some native apps like Contacts stopped working (not opening). I tried to restore it through KIES, it put my phone in Emergency mode, no escape there...I then went to the Factory files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448794 which got my phone back to 4.2.2 and working...but still no Signal nor IMEI nor Baseband. I flashed MODEM and now it doesn't have any sound, wifi either....I went through KIES again and was able to catch the files it downloads when initializing the device, flash the System, MODEM and CSC, but same results and it is still on 4.2.2. Also when trying to flash Bootloader I get FAIL(Auth) code (I suppose because my BL is not unlocked)
My request:
I am thinking if someone can make a backup of System partition, I could put it into my phone as RESTORE through TWRP (not installed yet) I might be able to revive this device.
EDIT: I am looking build i337ztuubne2 since my bootloader is now ne2 because of the OTA
Suggestions are welcome!! Thanks!!!

KIES 2.6 or 3? You had to be root to get to TWRP. Did the Z model ship with 4.2? I would be surprised, but don't really know. try 3. Start in download mode. I use cricket as well but never a cricket device. I will be in our cricket retailer today, the guys are pretty much ignorant to anything more than activating but possibly one may have a Z/s4 we could pull a nandroid from. Doubtful.
Sounds like you need a warranty replacement. Lesson learned? Always backup EFS!

First, the phone came with 4.2.2, so I used the files that kies 2.6 downloaded (haven't tried with kies 3) but the phone had 4.4.2 when it started acting up. It was updated OTA. As of now, I am rooted with twrp installed, no issues there. Now, if you could extract a nandroid from one of them, would be great! I do want to be on KitKat and not JB. I can flash it through odin 4.2.2 with no WiFi, sound nor calls. I think because the baseband is for KitKat and not for JB

No cellular network after installing CM12.1 on Straight Talk SM-G900F (klte)

I recently installed TWRP and then the latest snapshot of CM12.1 for my phone described in title. The android version was upgraded from KitKat (4.4 I believe) to 5.1.1. Everything works fine with the install except I have no network whatsoever. Can't text, can't call, can't use data etc. I made a post on the CM subreddit but didnt get a lot of help (can't post link) . Here is what I have tried: changing APN settings (which I have heard should at least let me call and text if incorrect); flashing various modems such as BOE3, BNL9, and BOD3 (all of them get a FAIL! (auth) in ODIN); restoring my KitKat backup (makes the phone unusable); trying to flash the default L rom for the phone (Also fail to flash in ODIN and TWRP). So at the current time I am basically stuck on CM12.1 and all of its amazingness with no phone functions, I basically have a small tablet at the moment lol.
Here is some information from the about of my phone, if it is helpful at all.
Model: SM-G900F
CM Version: 12.1-20151204-NIGHTLY-ktle (Installed the nightly after the snapshot didn't work, same problem persists)
Android version: 5.1.1
Baseband version: S902LUDU3AOG2
Carrier: Straight Talk
If any more info is needed, just let me know. I appreciate any help, as I am pretty much at square one still. I have googled for days to try to fix this, and haven't come up with anything. It seems no one has had this specific problem before.
If I can't fix this issue, is there any way I can downgrade back to what I had to begin with?

I only have one other sim card on me, and its through verizon. It didn't work on the phone either. I would definitely just buy a new sim card if that would mean it would work. The whole IMEI thing worked, but I am not sure what to do with that information.

(Definitely a G900F? Check what it says in download mode)
Checking the IMEI was to make sure you haven't wiped/corrupted the EFS partition, which contains the Radios needed to make and receive called, along with the IMEI (Hopefully you researched enough to back that up before messing with the phone)
Try flashing another stock ROM with ODIN 3.10.7, go for a different Lollipop ROM from sammobile. com
Some stock ROMs fail to flash, some work, (Phone dependant it seems)
Then boot into recovery and factory reset > try to boot

I have tried 2 separate L roms for the G900F. It says in download mode the phone is a SM-S902L and I read somewhere to get the true model of the phone you look at the FCC id under the battery. Well the FCC id says it is a G900V. at one point in trying to fix it, I tried a stock L rom for the G900V and TWRP told me that it was intended for a kltevzw device and that mine is a klte, so that is why I assume that it is in fact a G900F. I have been using ODIN 3.10.7 to flash everything as well. (Have't tried TWRP for the most recent tries since it takes longer to setup and I doubt it would work but it's worth a try I suppose.
I looked on Sam Mobile for the SM-S902L and there is only one firmware for it, which is 4.4.2, the same one it was installed with when I got it. From my understanding SM-902L is the straight talk branding of the G900V, and trying to flash that firmware didn't work either. Every time I try to flash something it terminates with a FAIL! (auth). What I also understand is that Straight Talk has not released an official version of L for the phone. So it seems my options now are to somehow get the modem to work right in CM12, try to somehow downgrade to 4.4.2, or wait for Straight Talk to release an update for my phone which is not really an option. I just got this phone and I really don't want to have to buy a whole new one just because of software problems. In my mind there HAS to be some way to fix this.
EDIT: my bad, I should have mentioned when I tried to flash the G900V rom it was also CM12, not a stock.
EDIT AGAIN: I seem to have fixed this problem. I have no idea how I did it, but I finally got it to restore to the stock 4.4.2 rom. I seriously have no clue how it worked but it did. Texting and data once again work, but i am now having a problem where I can't make or receive calls. Call immediately ends/goes straight to voicemail. I don't suppose you know anything about that, if you do that would be awesome. I'm gonna call ST in the morning and see if they can tell me anything from their end. But otherwise, I guess my problem is solved. Lol.

I know it sounds simple or may sound stupid but have you tried entering your APN? I have to do that with most of the custom Roms I flash or I won't have service. Also, make sure the correct modem is flashed and up to date.

S4 i337M - No sound on calls (in/out) after flashing Stock 5.01 Loliipop ROM

Flashed stock 5.01 ROM and phone call function stopped working.
When calling, there is a connection but no sound can be heard on either end of call.
It WAS working briefly and briefly managed to 'fix' it. Everything else functions correctly. Wifi calling works perfect. SMS works perfect.
I have searched forums and Googled this (about 9 hours worth so today) so quite at a loss how to proceed.
Tried forums suggestions to:
- disable Google Now/OK Google voice functions
- disable S Voice functions
- removing and replacing SIM/SD card
- wiping cache
- air dusting earphone port
- clear Google Play services cache and data
- clear Drive cache
- boot into Safe Mode, still not working
Additionally tried re-wipe cache/DALVIK/data/entire device and re-installed different stock ROM, same problem
I flashed both BELL and Rogers stock Lollipop ROM from XDA post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/sgh-i337m-canadian-stock-official-t3082758) via Odin
Any suggestions???
The only thing that worked briefly was:
In App Info for the Phone App, I did 'clear data' and 'clear cache' for all THREE Phone Apps (yes, there are three, I don't know if this is normal or not as this is first time with Lollipop). This allowed the phone to work BRIEFLY, then problem returned.

Try flashing the latest stock from sammobile.com.

Hi,
Attempting this but both Bell and Rogers Lollipop firmware .ZIP are corrupt from Sammobile.com I've contacted their admin to advise of this as I have tried downloading multiple times with the same corrupt file result.
Are there any other reputable download site?

I did a nandroid / efs backup with TWRP. Would there be any problems in restoring to 4.4.2 Kitkat using that???

Anything to be concerned about reverting via TWRP to Kitkat
Tried Emergency Firmware recovery via KIES, no luck, re-wiped cache, did factory reset in stock recovery, still no good.
Tried swapping Sim card tray and Earphone port (had a parts phone kicking around that is stuck on boot logo ((TWRP/ODIN Flashing does not recover this phone sadly)))
Will try to revert to Kitkat via TWRP next.
Note: I AM able to make normal calls as long the device is connected via Bluetooth to my car or to my bluetooth headset. Discovered this after more googling/forum searching.

What are you using to download from sammobile? I always use a win 7 machine.
What are program is being used to unzip the rom? You're only unzipping once?

Hi,
I'm using Win7 x64 Home Premium. WinRAR to unzip.
Since posting last I have restored Nandroid backup - phone function still didn't work and Google Play Services glitched out.
So, next downloaded 4.4.2 Kitkat from Sammobile, extracted no problem, flashed via Odin (no errors)- still no phone function
Wiped phone yet again, re-installed Kitkat one more time with Odia (no errors) - still no phone function
Used Kies to do Firmware Update and Initialization, (no errors) - still no phone function
Re-wiped again and used Kies once more, this time not doing App Restore function in case there is App causing issues and not signing into Google or Samsung Account to avoid anything restoring - still not working but interestingly there was a OTA update to 5.01 that installed fine - end result... phone function still not working.
If anybody can offer me another suggestion to try, I'll be happy to attempt but at this point I'm prepared to say f**k it and buy another phone.
I've been at this since last Saturday.

After flashing with Odin, are you able to confirm that the bootloader and baseband match each other and the rom that was flashed? The imei is correctly displayed?
Since you are able to make calls via Bluetooth, are you able to hear the other party and the other party can hear you? What about calls via speakerphone?

Yes, I've attached a screenshot. Bootloader and baseband do match. This last round of install was done via OTA update that popped up after installing Kitkat. I just rolled with it as I figured if it's coming from Samsung directly, why not.
When making calls via Bluetooth, there are no issues. It functions as normal. It is just through the Phone App itself.
Interestingly, I discovered I can make outbound call no problem via Google Hangouts dialer as well. This is incredibly frustrating.

Did you try reflashing the OH1 ROM? Sounds redundant but I'm not sure what else to suggest short of putting the motherboard into another phone and trying it out.

Hi audit13,
Haven't tried installing mobo in another phone, will give that a whirl for sh*ts''grinz.
Been an incredibly frustrating process. Another interesting thing that has been happening is that I notice the boot up sequence takes a lot longer than I recall.
Have been trying to avoid using the phone.
Re-flashed OH1 using ODIN and earlier tonight, Kies. Still not working.
I'm wondering if doing something like reverting to very old ROM may do the trick instead.
Do you happen to know how old I can go? Jellybean? I will check sammobile and see what the oldest they have there.
Phone functions perfectly fine via Bluetooth still, IP calls via WhatsApp and Hangouts Dialer also work per normal. Just trying to place normal calls does not work.
Have also had bootloops lately too I notice.

You can go as far back as 4.4.2 from my experience.
You'r performing a factory wipe right after flashing in Odin?
Initial boot up after flashing and wiping usually takes a long time but it should become quicker as the cache builds up with each reboot.

@rogue_element have you found a solution?
My wife's phone is having the exact same problem.
It started happening like a couple months ago. Haven't flashed anything to it. It just suddenly happened.

Hi ImpheOtus,
No, I'm still searching for a solution. I tried reflashing and then factory reset per audit13 suggestions but still no luck. I even tried swapping the ear piece module from a parts phone and no go. Extremely frustrating. Shopping for a new phone at this point but I'm still trying for a resolution as I'm stubborn and don't like giving up.

Hi audit13,
I'm actually suspecting the something else at this point (virus/malware, etc.) in the bootloader or deeper. There has been other random odd behavior, and while I don't rule out something like a hardware problem either, the behavior has been very strange.
Perversely, my wife's phone briefly experienced the same issue as mine but it cleared up after a reboot.
I will go hunting for a tut on flashing bootloader and kernel only next to see if that helps. If you have any suggestions of where to look for tutorial and/or files please feel free.
I tried flashing 4.4.2 but no luck there either btw

Need EFS/IMEI help - I have backup but still not working

The Story
Don't even know where to start. Okay so I have a SM-935W8 (Canadian Version) and it was working perfectly fine running Project Dream rom the S8 one. I decided to flash angelo's Pixel rom for S7 Edge and for some reason when it booted, the network had a cancel sign meaning no network. Once I finished the initial setup, calling, messaging , and data weren't working. Luckily I have a backup for EFS and RADIO in tar, img. and tar.gz formats. So I downloaded the Partitions Backup app and restored the EFS and Radio files, it said successfully restored. I rebooted my device and the issue was still there, no network. So then I installed the stock ROGERS (Provider) rom from SAM MOBILE and it came up with some DRK error and my phone would not boot. So then I quickly used ODIN to flash twrp and then flash Superman Rom (Love it) and use dm-verity bypass.zip to get past the drk error. Then I attempted many other things but to no avail such as flashing the EFS tar through ODIN which caused a "Software Error" and phone to be stuck on a light blue software error screen so I had to use smart switch to FULLY restore the phone back to booting up, then once again I flashed twrp and Superman rom with dm-verity so I atleast have root and a decent rom to work from.
The Problem and What I Have at Disposal
So essentially, I currently have a new section in settings under Connections called "SIM card manager" for managing sim cards even tho I only have 1 slot, it shows that the SIM is ROGERS and LTE/3G/2G in there, but it can't connect to a network and keeps saying Not Registered on a Network. Also, there are 2 IMEI's since my phone thinks theres 2 SIM slots but I really only have 1 slot. BUT HERE IS THE MAIN ISSUE, THE ROOT OF ALL PROBLEMS, the IMEI is reading as "000000000000000" and the IMEISV is "01". Hence im getting Not Registered on a Network. No secret codes such as *#06# are working, keeps giving the Not Registered on a Network error.
I have the EFS and RADIO backups in img, tar, and tar.gz formats as well as screenshots of all my MAC and Bluetooth addresses, IMEI and Serial #'s and all that information. So essentially I feel fully ready to solve the problem but everything I try keeps failing. My EFS restoration says successful in the APP but upon reboot, theres no change. Flashing the EFS through ODIN messes up phone harder. When I use EFS Professional Tool, where do I place the partitions so they show up in the tool?
I used this post to try to fix it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-check-drk-imei-issues-t3379516
BUT when I'm flashing the combination through ODIN in AP, it goes to NAND write or whatever and gets stuck, sometimes it gets stuck on Analyzing files or something. I tried every single ODIN version. I really could use some expertise on this issue. A step by step written tutorial, some method anything!!!! Help on this post or even teamviewer or skype for live help would be appreciated. Please help and I'm willing to compensate for successfully helping me fix my issue..

Did you ever sort this out? I'm in a similar situation, except that it does occasionally show my IMEI but also 'baseband unknown'. But still no network access.

i hope i dont risk a warning, but you can use xposed and with root you can change your imei and baseband info.

Thanks, I've done so much to this phone now...
I did try xposed and have tried a different IMEI, it seems like it's a modem issue but there doesn't seem to be a firmware solution - I have tried so many stock roms(All the way back to the first Marshmallow and a bunch in between) and different custom roms too but in the end the error is always there: Not registered to Network.
I saw somewhere in my troubleshooting that some kind of cert needs to be patched because the phone did an update on a modified rom without the OEM unlock being on and then the EFS data was messed up or something like that (all of the research and troubleshooting is starting to blur). It seems like that fix isn't doable without a rather expensive piece of hardware (expensive if your just fixing your one phone I guess) and there isn't any firmware-only fix that can accomplish this patch so I'm stuck again.

Sorry, I should have clarified. I have an S7 (SM-G930W8). I only tried this thread because the issue was identical to mine and I couldn't find anything similar referencing the S7 specifically.

For anyone coming across this thread in the future, although mine was an S7 I think the issue would apply to both. I ended up ordering a z3x in order to use the patch certificate. But it wasn't that easy; the firmware had to be downgraded to marshmallow first which wouldn't work in Odin until I tried just flashing the BL and CP files first, then rebooting and flashing the AP and CSC files separately. In fact, the AP file froze the first time but passed on the second attempt. After that, everything was downgraded to android 6 and then the patch certificate option worked and my s7 connects to the network again.

I'm having a similar problem with my sm-g935w8 Rodgers but has been unlocked. A couple days ago i looked at my phone and it was showing a no signal symbol and I look for my phones information and it showed unknown in all categories, the imei say unknown, and it's not reading the sim. Help me

:( How can I recover this i337m in 2019

I have lost the phone that has been working for ages. I am broke atm. Please help I need to use my phone. I was trying to get my radio to work again because I lost data a couple weeks back. So I have spent more time than I even should have for this trying to fix it.

I have wiped everything and tried 2 different system boards ;
from download mode I have
used I337MVLSGQB1_I337MOYAGQB1_I337MVLSGQB1_HOME.tar
to reload with nothing checked but F. Reset Time.

I ended up using the pixel experience rom. I am sure I have the wrong bootloader and modem for i337m though. It works with data when I reset network settings and re-enable. Data each reboot. For the longest time lineage 9505 ROMs worked until like Feb 5th I saw the data just fall use just fall off. I couldn't get chatr to work anymore. It was a nightmare I went to stock and , pitted the phone and it would only function until I added TWRP and tried a nougat rom or even with latest modem. Wifi was evn a problem. Now I am using like a lollipop bootloader with the green battery charging and modem isn't right. When I flash a different modem and bootloader in Odin and rip the battery and then cableit doesn't even change .
Wtf?

I'm not sure how you could flash the wrong bootloader unless it was flashed using TWRP or CWM. To confirm, boot into download mode to see the model # listed on the screen.
Are the modem and bootloader matched; i.e. the phone is running a 5.0 bootloader and modem? To easily ensure that both are matched, you can flash the latest stock ROM using Odin.
If the modem version is not changing after being flashed, it is possible that the internal memory is faulty.
