[Q] - i9507: No service on KitKat - Can receive calls, can't dial (no service)

Hi Guys,
I'm from Australia and recently bought an Optus Galaxy S4 4G. Strangely, the model number is i9507. I double-checked this online and usually weird model numbers are just carrier-spin-offs. So I went ahead to root and flash just like you would with an International i9505.
So far no problems - 4.3.x PA rom works absolutely fine.
BUT:
I've tried some Kit Kat roms recently and they all flash fine but give me 'mobile network not available'. Strangely though, I can receive calls/text and talk on the phone, but when I try to dial or send text messages, I can't do it. My reception bar is completely empty as well.
WiFi is totally fine, just no data and mobile network
I've tried messing with the 'network operators' setting and if i select my carrier (I have a Vodafone sim) I'll get network reception until I turn off the screen and then my mobile network becomes unavailable again
Not sure what the problem is; modem? APN? or roms not suitable for my phone?

I've been flashing for a while now but it's usually just basic stuff so you can probably tell I'm pretty amateur lol.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks =)

Hi Rich
As your baseband is quite out of sync with the firmware you are trying to run (MH2 is from 4.2.2 ,,, right?) I would suggest you change your baseband (modem) flashing an equivalent to the ROM firmware from here.
I've got yesterday the exactly same behaviour when finally and reluctantly I've added a data plan. I was running a successful low-baseband + high-firmware because was setted to "GSM Only" (try it ... will work flawless). When I've switched to LTE got what you've described in the face too . I've promptly updated my baseband and now all is fine :angel:
EDIT: please do nothing of the above described BEFORE taking a EFS backup with every tool you can find and preserving them in several highly fortified locations and 2 or 3 K7 Tapes too . Have an ODIN flashable copy of your MH2 baseband is advisable too.
Hope I've helped and please share your experience.
Nice regards.

Hey thanks for the reply! Helps heaps =)
While I still had those roms installed I did try flash a few modems within Odin, all failed though =S
Which one should I be flashing?
I believe I tried XXUFNA1 but the flash just doesn't go through
Does it make a difference which rom I flash the new modem from? I.e. flash when the new modem now or flash the new modem on the kitkat rom?
I'm currently using Pacman 4.3.1 since it's perfectly fine. Just can't wait to get on a KitKat rom though! haha

Hi Rich
Sorry, may be my fault, but quite didn't got your
You may proceed having the below as a rule of thumb:
Your baseband (modem) version should always match your ROM (firmware) version.
Failure to flash something is never good signal. As you have an i9507 (I own the 5) is very advisable to flash a modem built for your S4 flavour.
The above rule should apply to it too so, if the only modem available for the i9507 is the MH2 your firmware have to match or these issues reported will return.
Did you tested the "GSM Only" option to corroborate (or not) my hyphothesis? With this config, you should perceive no signal drops when waked. I know it isn't a viable operational mode but ... just for fun
Nice regards and keep sharing :laugh:

i9505 i337m canada mobile network connectivity

Hello All,
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i337m in canada using the rogers netowork. Ive been using customs roms shortly after i got this phone. Ive used samsung rom, original, GPE but eventually settled on Cyanogenmod. I use TWRP for the i9505 which allows me to use any rom (since CM12 doesnt have a build for the i337m, and other builds wont flash in a i337m TWRP).
Anyway ive been using CM 12.1 with a i9505 build for some time, and it works great. I had to update my modem to the NI2 build to get it to work, but its been working flawless ever since.
Now to my problem, buddy has an S4, same model, same carrier. He claims he needs a new phone and i beg to differ. I rooted, installed twrp (i9505)and cm12.1 (i9505). works great, however no network connectivity. I remember i need a new modem, try the same one that works with mine....nothing... try a different one.... nothing. calls and SMS, but not data of any speed.
Reverting to kitkat roms results in it working perfectly (multiple modems). both from his original Nandroid and CM 11. All lollipop roms seems to have the same issue, no mobile data. Wifi works fine. No issues with SIM card, switched them between the two phones and confirmed its HIS phone with the issue.
Im a little puzzled, can someone recommend a modem to load? should I try to use TWRP an CM12 for the ATT variant/ different variant? I want to help him but this is making me look amateur (even if its true).
Thanks ahead of time.

Checking in a couple months later... I'm using the s7 Darklord rom now.. n900w8: Same deal - video completely doesn't work. Both cameras. nothing works. Pictures are fine - but some of the stock modes (that needed flashing - the fix hosted on samsungvn.vom page) don't work either. I can't find any radios for our phone anywhere. It seems we were officially updated to 5.0 but I'm guessing that didn't use the radios needed to make the video recording in a MM Rom work. I dunno. I'm guessing.
Frustrating.

G900P in Europe?

Hi!
I've bought a Galaxy S5 (G900P) from Ebay last year, but I wasn't aware that the Sprint variant is meant for the US. (just realized that now, since I ran into problems). I've used it for almost a year now, running Android 5.1.1 with Cyanogenmod custom ROM on it - here comes the thing - as G900F. (which I just realized aswell, thinking back, and checking screenshots / Windows logs). The About Phone section, the usb drivers in Windows, several other things claimed it was G900F firmware on it - and I was able to use 3g mobile internet on it, was connected to Vodafone Hungary without problems. (turns out I can't use 4g in Europe with this variant, that's my bad). The Recovery mode (used Phil'z) and the Download mode both displayed G900P..I'm not sure what to think now.
The problems started when a few days back, Cyanogenmod announced the 13rd version, and my auto-update on CM12 took its curse, and updated it. The whole thing went smooth, phone rebooted, and instantly got hotter and hotter, draining the battery seriously fast. I've tried several apps, methods, none could help it, so I decided to just stick with Android 6.0.1 (since it came with the CM13).
Through 2 days of suffering and reading forums, pages till my eyes bled out, I managed to have a stock G900P 6.0.1. Android on my phone, it's currently charging, but here comes the fun, I'm not able to get mobile internet (3g). I could connect to Vodafone Hungary somehow, calling, and receiving calls, but there are several other things wrong with the phone like this. I've also tried to revert back to 5.1.1 (even the Stock ROM would be fine, I'd gladly skip on CM12), but Odin failed and failed each and every time.
So my question is: I know it's possible, because I DID have it, but I don't know how to anymore - G900F firmware on a G900P phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(current status - Android 6.0.1 with stock G900P firmware - unrooted / I think/ ; without custom recovery, in Download mode both things say Official)
P.S.: if this subforum isn't the place for a thread like this, I'm asking a mod to please move it to a rightful section, thank you!

Samsung Note 3 N9005 CAMERA FAILED error and more

Dear Team, good afternoon,
I'm a 42 years old daddy, in love with Linux and doitbyyourself stuff!
My last message in a forum was probably more than 15 years ago, but this issue is driving me crazy.
Background: few time in the past I flashed, rooted some samsung devices, but honestly speaking I had no mood to learn anything more than that.
Few weeks ago I was tempted to install Lineage17.1 on my SM N9005 ( NOTE 3 Samsung)
and everything went smooth. The day after I realized the front camera was not working,
giving me a generic CAMERA FAILED error, crashing almost immediately or freezing my screen with a dark screen for few seconds.
Tried few classic solutions ( reboot, wipe,clear cache, full reboot removing battery) as suggested on this forum and on the web, but no luck. Not even other app like OPENCAM etc..
I decided to go back to stock and installed Lollipop. Surprise, no camera again
Probably odin problem or corrupted rom, so I tried I think not less than 5 more stock rom ( brand, no brand, etc) Never had the camera back.
I even tried to go back to original kitkat same error.
Being the camera the only broken/faulty hardware, I decided to by a new one.
No luck again...
Is there anything I am missing? Is it ever possible I'm the only one with this problem?
What would you do to investigate/solve this issue? Can you please help me
at least pointing me where to look for a solution?
For the moment I'm back to this firmware. Before wiping and trying something different
I thought I could ask to your advice
Model SM-N9005
Model name GALAXY Note 3
Country Singapore (XSP)
Version Android 4.4.2
PDA N9005DXUGNK1
CSC N9005OLCGNH1
Thanks for your time!
