[q] help emergancy calls only site doesnt have information needed

Hey ive had a rooted s3 for a while now it was already done when i bought it months ago..... i decided to put 4.3 on it i thought i did it all right but obviously ive done something wrong since it now says emergancy calls only, i have tried;
taking the battery and sim out
wiping all user data and cache via the up, power and home button
I have reinstalled numerous software BTU and international and past firmwares, tried using the csc changer cause at one point it was KOR not BTU, ALL ROMS BEING STOCKS....
I have recently tried installing a Custom rom..... CYANOAGEN 4.3 (stable) which im under the impression is a custom mod anyways?????
Now i am completly puzzled ive searched numerous sites including this one but noone ever seems to have quite the same information i have on the device status or situation explanations so i thought id put this out there... erm im in the uk if that matters... and a fast response will be most helpful i will be attaching me device info screen shots OH AND BTW I HAVE A SIGNAL AND IT ASKS ME WHEN I TURN THE PHONE ON 02 MONTHLY, 02 PAY AND GO AND TESCO WHICH I AM ON GIFFGAFF (GIFFGAFF WORKS ON THE O2 NETWORK FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DONT KNOW)

Assuming by going to 4.3, your IMEI changed to EFS v2. If you ever want to go back to stock just flash XXEMG4 (4.1.2) or any 4.3 stock firmware

[Q] Restoring to Stock ROM

I don't always ask for help online because I believe that whatever problem I have, someone out there already has it, so I just need to look better. Not this time though. I'm literally dying.
I've installed Custom ROMs before and reverted them back to stock before but it was on a Galaxy NEXUS. It was seamless.
I have a n900W8 Note 3, this is the canadian variant. After a long day, I managed to root it and install CWM recovery, but didn't install a custom ROM. The next day (today), I installed an AOSP ROM and it worked fine but I wanted a TouchWiz ROM. After trying out 2 and getting stuck in a bootloop, I went back to the AOSP ROM. I then tried one last one, X-NOTE. Apparently it wiped my internal storage. You should see what happened to me when I realized that.
So I now just want to go back to the stock firmware but that's not easy, because I live in Jordan, which is in the middle east, but my phone is a canadian variant. But, The CSC Code for it was TTT, which is for Trinidad and Tobago. Wait, there's more. When Installing X-Note, it asked me which CSC code do I want to install. it had 5 options I think and TTT wasn't one of them. I chose BTU which is for UK.
So now I want a firmware that isn't carrier locked so I can use whatever SIM Card I put in it.
There's this article, and it says :
"You might find 2 types of firmwares even within a particular model number. Such firmwares are generally known as Branded and Unbranded ones. If your device is locked to a network provider/carrier, it’s a branded device. Therefore you must install a firmware that is meant for your carrier. Similarly, if you are able to use any SIM card on your phone, it’s unbranded, and so you can install any firmware on it that is for unbranded Note 3.", well, how the hell do I know which one is branded and which one isn't :crying:.
Seriously guys, I'm desperate for help. The phone actually isn't mine, that's why I'm freaking out. I still have my Galaxy Nexus and I love it. Even after 3 years, it is still working perfectly. The developer support for it is absolutely amazing.

S8-G950U Problem

Hello guys i have one big thing to solve here i hope you are going to help me.So here is my problem:
I have an S8(G950U) which i flashed with T-mobile firmware from Sammobile.The phone worked totally fine for 7 days.I even updated the software the day i flashed the phone.Today i just woke up and i got a message on my phone saying that for security reasons your phone is locked.Now i cant even use T-mobile(Macedonia card),and not even my main operator(VIP MKD).Can someone help me what i can do? The phone is snapdragon,and the IMEI IS: 355987080853152. Its not blacklisted i did check it out.
I have 2 questions only:
1.Do phones get locked when you flash it with carrier firmware?
2.Can i flash the phone with some other firmware so its going to get in working phase again.
Thanks to everyone that is going to help.Kind regards
-Orce

back to stock

I somehow messed up my phone so sim 1 doesn't work when I'm abroad. It keeps thinking that I'm in Belgium when I'm not and there is no phone or data signal. I'd like to go back to complete stock, still having bootloader unlocked but with stock rom. Hopefully this can fix it. What's the best stock ROM for user based in Ireland?

This is not Samsung. It's one ROM for all OnePlus 5 phones. Except the Chinese ones, they have a slightly different one.

Moto g5 plus, single SIM, no LTE on custom ROM?!

Moto g5 plus 64g (single SIM),unlocked bootloader, root...4g works fine on stock ROM rooted w/Xposed
. ..and that's great but Ive flashed custom ROMs
Resurrection
...and Halogen
... and Desolation
... and they are very nice ROM s but I only get 3g (no LTE) and the only info I find on this is a quick-fix w/jio SIM using a DUAL SIM. .... Am I the only unlucky human w/a single SIM 3g problem?
I was so excited about this phone, thought I did all of my research , bought TWO 64g g5 plus phones(not 32g no way because I wanted to BEST lol but its single sim, stupid me).
...should I just give up on custom ROMs ? ...or is there something can be done?
Ive being at this for 2 weeks now...Any/all info very appreciated.

I would've posted in other forum but wouldn't let me due to lack of status....or rep...or bling..or something.

Do you have correct APN set? On some custom ROMs I have installed I had to change APN, because it was set to first in the list by default.

I dont know much about APN ...not durecwhst it's suppose to be set at..im boost mobile.. I'll start researching that next ..thanks brother

No luck.
I found the APN settings on Boost mobile site, I set/saved that to no avail.
I went back to stock/rooted and 4g works fine. But no matter which custom ROM I use I still only have 3g.
Surely someone somewhere knows how to set/fix this.
Can a Mod move this to where someone may have hands-on with this 3g vs 4g issue? Dev or someone?

Month later...5 custom roms later...still either no 4g on custom rom or no camera on simple root w magisk. I still can't post in Dev forum.

No LTE

Have the same problem, how did u go back to stock? TWRP restore? or did you fastboot flash stock fireware? I'm not sure if it makes a difference but after reading a few of these it looks like stock firmware may need to be reflashed with fastboot then start flashing custom ROMs with twrp. If you get the answer let me know if i find out I'll let you know?
Thanks
Update: yes there are ROMs that will fix the LTE problem, I was reading someone with a connection problem someone suggested downloading stock debloated , another suggested AOKP, downloaded both , first I tried debloated got LTE , then flashed the other, for VoLTE. Also I'm not sure if this is correct or not but fastboot flashing modems may work I'm not exactly sure and would need to look it up further is something else I read but didn't try as its 2:00am and I'm being yelled at by a hidden speaker in my kitchen which is why it took so long for me to even try to look for a reason because I've been getting yelled at so long I think I got cancer, I hope Santa brings them a tall glass of shut the f up so I get one day without being yelled at , also Lineage 15 says LTE working. I haven't used it since I don't want to mess with 8.0 right now. MeryXMaz

I'm havin the same issue. Also with Boost Mobile. Most other devices I've rooted have had some sort of boost/sprint/virgin APN fix .zip. But I donno....

Thanks for responding. I still haven't found a fix for the LTE. I will try to aokp again maybe something has been fixed or added. I did fix my camera problem by flashing elementalX so that's good. But not having LTE is not cool. And I also did not want to message w 8.0 yet.

So I tried AOKP to no avail. Still no 4g/LTE. That's time I'll never get back lol.

had the same problem XenonHD seems to work well...

I'll try it thanks

Hoping it'll get better with the official 8.0 release.
