[Q] [SOLVED] 900w8 No Service - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
Recently I encountered some issues with my Note 3. google playstore did not allow me to sign in and no notifications appeared on my screen (the phone has root, and TWRP). I decided to try out CM11, downloaded it from the original site along with gapps on my internal sd. i wiped data cache .. the usual and installed the two files except they did not do anything. I download the custom recovery 1.3gb file using odin. booted up and noticed that my service is not working. i called my service provider to see if the problem was on their end but wasnt. i factory reset the phone via settings... same problem. i went into recovery wiped data and cache booted up and same issue.
IMEI= has not been blacklisted
I occasionally do see bars appear however no change in service status
I tried flashing TWRP again and installing CM11 except i get a "failed" message "unable to mount"
I sure hope I did not kill this phone
any idea how do i get service back on my phone? everything else on the phone works besides service provider....
Thank you very much!!

Not sure if this means anything ...

When you had it working with a Touchwiz Rom it could have been your APN settings that were not allowing you to get signal.
If I were you I would start fresh and download the factory image from sammobile and flash it again using Odin. We can start troubleshooting from there.
Did you use this tutorial to get a custom recovery installed? Its really straightforward and I recommend this method over all others.

1. Check for Reactivation Lock
2. Check that you are NOT downgrading your bootloader.
EDIT: You are downgrading your bootloader, or else you wouldn't get the aboot fused 2 > binary 2 error.
You will have to flash stock, go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=26660
Flash that in AP of Odin. Then you will be reverted back to stock.

I downloaded that file, used ODIN V3.09 selected the file under AP. the flash worked. bootloader version NB7 however I still do not get any service
i know the issue is not SIM card related. I swapped it to another phone and received service

You might have to set up your APN settings after you have done that. You can google the APN settings for your carrier and then put them in manually by going Settings > Connections > More Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
You'll be able to add them in there.

Is your IMEI (*#06#) a real IMEI that matches with the values at the back of your phone, and not just null/null?

Put your SIM in your phone, download Advanced Signal Status from the Play Store, and show us some screenshots.
In this menu you get to see more information about what is going on with your network.
Have you also made sure your APN settings are set correctly?

I compared APN setting between my two devices (both are the same carrier and same model of phone ((borrowing from someone)). APN settings were the same except APN Protocol and APN roaming protocol were dark and could not be changed. even though i couldn't change it it was still listed as ipv4 same as the working phone.
If you need any other information, please let me know

You could try resetting the nvram. Check my thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2754957

I gave that a try, rebooted the phone, attempted a call and "Not registered on network"
would changing the ROM have any impact on the service for whatever reason? i gave CM11 a try but wouldn't instal.

Seeing all that you've tried, the one thing i don't see tried is the sim card. Have you tried your sim in another phone, or another known good sim in yours? The fact it gets signal but doesn't register with the network makes me think the sim had somehow gotten corrupted.

Would trying your method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792819) but changing the bootloader to NB7 work?
"If your bootloader is of version NA2 (somehow) or NB7, skip to the contents of Step 4," rather than proceeding to step 4 going to step 1?

Check whether EFS folder is backed up by flashed rom in sdcard. If your lucky you can use backup file to get imei number back. Few posts also suggest that flashing back stock rom also get back imei. I am not sure of it. Better back up efs to your pc.

EFS is a folder in phone's file system which saves your phone model, IMEI number and lot more details, Important folder. Flashing ROM the efs folder got corrupted causing the loss of imei number. Try "radicalisto" reply and update the issue.

No signal - Can't connect to network

Hey guys I'm having a little problem with my GT-i9505. Problem being that I cannot get any reception on my device. It first occurred when I flashed a 4.3 rom over my 4.4.2 rom. I've tried switching to several different roms, both 4.3 and 4.4, yet none can fix the problem. I've tried to flash at least a dozen modem's in a bid to fix it. I searched for the modem suitable to my device and yet they still didn't work. I even tried to just install the official Samsung 4.4.2 rom via Odin, yet I'm still having the same problem. My baseband does change whenever I flash a new modem, but I still cant get a signal. When I try to search for a network in settings it lists the main carriers in the UK, but when I try to select mine (3 UK) it doesn't allow me to register, clicking select automatically yields the same results too. I've been searching for hours today on how to fix this, but just can't seem to find a method that helps. Any suggestions?
Have you tried manually entering the APN settings for 3 UK?

Take your S4 to a repair shop. Use Phil,s recovery when you re-root, install Omega ROM or another Samsung based ROM and, using Philz Touch 6 recovery, make a copy of your EFS file so if / when it happens again you can reinstall Omega or whichever ROM you installed and, using Philz recovery, you can reinstall your EFS file.
To make the backup, reboot recovery - backup and restore - custom backup - x (only in efs backup) - start custom backup - choose where to put the backup.
I use Omega as a reference because I know it will not screw up your EFS file.

I had the same problem with my i9500 after flashing a Slim rom Perhaps you can get a copy of an efs file from someone with the same phone and then put it on your phone, or get the information you need from your phone company.

I now have exactly the same problem as you. I tried (once again) to install a new ROM on my i9500 (SOKP this time) and now (for the third time) my phone won't register on the network. I'll take it to China Unicom in the morning and let you know what happened. Unfortunately I don't speak Chinese very well but I will try to watch what the repair guy does. Perhaps it will be of some help.
I took the phone to China Unicom but the tech that repaired it last time wasn't there.

[Q] Nexus 4 Lollipop 5.1 How do I enable LTE 4G

I updated to stock 5.1 from 5.0.2 yesterday. Prior to this I had LTE 4G on T-Mobile. Now I'm back to 3G . Does anyone else have this experience? and are ther any solutions out there I could use?
I'd value any input or advice on this issue.
Thanks
I tried too to revert 4g on my 5.1 n4 but after i wiped everything ( excepting system ... ) i got a lovely bsod ( blank screen of death ) i don't think is a sollution yet , if i done something wrong someone please explain us how to get it properly back w/o probs , wait for some ideas thanks .
You'll obviously need to be sure the hybrid modem is installed. Beyond that as I recall, I had to "force" it to see the LTE network by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and selecting "LTE only" for the connection. After that I was able to set it to "LTE/GSM auto" and it has worked correctly since.

Go to settings -> About Phone
The Android software version number and baseband (modem) version will be listed. If the last 2 digits of the baseband version is greater than 33, you will not have LTE capability.

I'm sorry for being a little slow on this, but when you say reboot to recovery, what do you mean exactly? I have the file downloaded though. Is this a hack or is this something that was made for this phone by Google? I guess what I'm asking is, could I screw up my phone from doing this and if I do, can I revert back to where I had it prior to this if it doesn't work or don't like it?

To help your self out It might be useful if you read the post from the following link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60115195&postcount=771
It will help you understand the whole process and how to do it. It will also give you lots of background on the issue.
To perform the "Flash" I use the Nexus Root Toolkit. which can be found here.
I hope this helps you. Let us know how it goes
This is perfect! Thank you!
I'm noticing that the settings done keep after a reboot. I don't have to reflash the modem, but I do have to go back into the 4636 settings to re-enable LTE. I've heard this might be fixable in the build.prop? Any thoughts?

You do it straight from your phone. Download the file, boot into your Recovery, go to the folder you saved the file in (likely in your "Downloads" folder, and just flash the .zip file from your Phone's recovery, and it will do all the necessaries.
It worked flawlessly when I flashed that zip from recovery. All relevant settings changed from 3G to 4G and HSPA to LTE. Speed went from 10 to 36mbps (Telus Canada). ROM is 5.1.1 LMY48T

Thanks that got almost work for me but it says its for android 5.1+ and I am on android 6.0.1 aosp ROM.
But after that I flashed this and bingoo. I can use LTE only in Android 6.
Used this http://www.mediafire.com/?2thymqa7fiiyrqy
Now I can able to click on 'only LTE' from phone info
And it stays at LTE only.
Before this when I goto phone info and it got gsm or wcdma even I click on LTE now its working for me.
I found that zip file from anywhere else I don't know where so I had uploaded and shared here.
Here is what I found about version check. Give it a try if you wish
a) expand nexus-4-lte-enabler-v2.13.zip
b) edit META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script
c) replace 5.1 with 6.0.1 in this line
( is_substring("5.1", file_getprop("/system/build.prop","ro.build.version.release")) )
d) update zip with new file
e) flash zip

Can NOT flash stock ROM onto Samsung Galaxy S4!!

I have tried for over 4 hours straight now. No matter what i do, i just get an error each time. My mobile data doesn't work, may be my fault because i rooted it them uninstalled a bunch of stuff that i thought was bloatware, but i may have gotten something else in the process. Phone still works perfectly fine, just mobile data does not. I know i have data too. Anyway, I flashed it before because i screwed up and put the wrong Android version on it, then got it to the one i wanted. But now i just want to get my mobile data working. I have already tried multiple fixes for it and come to no success. Anything helps. Thanks. USB debugging is enabled too.
Your error would be helpful.
Use the original cable and back USB ports. Use various Windows versions and Odin versions
You confirmed the model number in download mode matches Roms you are flashing?
Alright. I got it to work. This whole time it was a bad cable. Now i have another problem. Everything works fine on it, except the mobile data. It just doesn't work. Any ideas?

Is your APN set correctly?

I checked the APN settings online. They were all correct. Today I put my friends sim card In my phone, at&t card, and everything worked. But he put my card in his phone and no data. But if I put my card in to my old Huawei phone, everything works fine. Could it just be that the sim card is set to work on my old Huawei only?
Sim cards aren't usually tied to a particular phone. Is the sim a prepaid AT&T Go card?
Have you tried contacting your carrier about that? Do they know you switched phones? I had a problem similar to that when I switched from my LG G2 to the Galaxy S4 with straight talk, I had to call my carrier, this was before I rooted either phone. Speaking of, was your mobile data working before you rooted?
Is your modem/bootloader matching the ROM you flashed?

Mobile data never worked on this phone with my sim card, but did with my friends At&t go sim card. I called up tracfone, and they told me that it was a straight talk phone originally (i bought the phone used), and that it can't be switched over. Yet on the back of the phone under the battery it says "Tracfone Wireless". I thought it would work.

According to this thread, you can do this:
Code:
- Go to Settings -> About phone, see "Baseband version"
This is your modem version
- Run in terminal:
su
getprop gsm.version.baseband # This is your modem version
getprop ro.boot.bootloader # This is you bootloader version

Flash the ROM mentioned here.
That's currently what I'm using on my SM-S975L and works great with our phones. Alternatively a stock ROM for the SM-S975L can be found here.
Can you provide a link to the ROM you are currently using?

For future reference, the model number in About phone can be easily changed, just by editing the device build.prop. Entering download mode and reading off the model number displayed on screen is definitive. Unlike About phone or the label beneath the battery, the number in download mode can't be changed.

I looked and, yes i'm picky, i want to stay in 4.4 kitkat because of the features the S4 has with it and the way it looks. (OCD may have something to do with that. Ha.) looked at the stock ROM link you gave me and that's 4.3. I will try that. I'm going to try and see if i can get this figured out with tracfone before i go and flash the rom though. As far as linking you what rom i have on here, i think this is it. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358548937 Also, the stock ROM link you gave me lead to 502 bad gateway. after i clicked download from the site.

[Help][No Sim Card Working][HUGE Issue!!]No service issue and blank imei PLEASE HEL

My brother who lives in dubai used his sim card in this phone but ever since i got the phone in Pakistan ive tried using my sim but i get no service.
My guess is it only works with 4g LTE but i cant try cuz where i live here's only 3g and 2g coverage.
So i started using it as a wifi tablet.
Dialed *#06# and it showed both imei numbers but ever si ce i updated to purenexus 7.1.2 rom it gives me the same service error but dialing *#06# gives nothing but two plain zeroes like in the screenshot. Can anyone please help me resolve this i would greatly appreciate any help regarding this.please help my phone is useless without a sim card.
Screenshots show how it detects the sim card perfectly and gets the number.
-searches for available networks but cant register on a network:crying:

Do the network settings reset, see if it works. if not, install app called LTE Discovery and reset thru it. if still fails, flash stock rom
