[Q] [NEED A REPLY!] Is it safe to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2?

I had a problem with my i9505 which resulted in it being soft-bricked and so I decided to flash a stock rom for 4.3 Baltic and now I can't enable WIFI. I rooted my phone.
Kernel version: 3.4.0-2082040
Baseband: i9505XXUEMJ7

Hi there. You can no longer downgrade your phone into 4.2.2 mate . So either do a factory reset/wipe cache in recovery .or re flash the rom. Have a nice day.

[Q] Need Help CM10 no Sound after modem flash

Hi all,
I'm a fan of CM and been using M9. When M10 was released, of course I have updated but got issue on signal dropping. I did some research and convinced to update my modem. Using the http://www.sammobile.com firmware checking I got these as latest firmware info:
PDA: I9505XXUGNH8
CSC: I9505OLBGNH2
MODEM: I9505XXUGNH8
With these, I updated my modem to XXUGNH8 using I9505XXUGNH8_MODEM (from DXUBMG5) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50965837. The signal dropping was fixed but the BT and wifi went crazy so I flashed I9505_XXUGNH8_WiFi_FIX. BT and Wifi got fixed but my phone got no sound. The result has forced me go back to my M9 which leads me to in restoring my Nandroid back up using CMW and I got my M9 again. Now with my old M9, I still got no sound to I flashed XXUGNG2 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025 but still no sound. So then, I was forced again to flash my original modem, DXUBMG5 from the same thread but still no sound.
I'm ran out of ideas what to do next, maybe install M10 again? Flash new modem? I don't have a good idea now.
Perhaps anyone can guide me.
Here are my phone's current data;
Model: GT-i9505
CM: 11-20140804-SNAPSHOT-M9-jflte
Android: 4.4.4
Baseband:I9505DXUBMG5
Kernel: 3.4.0-cyanogenmod-g433243c [email protected] # 1 Sun Aug 3 22:19:51 PDT 2014
Country: Philippines
Carrier: Globe
Edit:
I'm planning to flash XXUBMH1 based on:
"Old bootloader (no KNOX ) => you need to flash exactly the following LTE modem and no other : XXUBMH1. Otherwise, sound / Wi-Fi may break."
I have checked an I didn't found Samsung knox in my Apps. Any better way to tell if my phone knox?

Okay, it seems that I flashed the modem for phones with knox while mine doesn't have.

[Q] Downgrade Modem

I'm running CyanogenMod 4.4.4 with a Baseband of XXUGNG1 in the UK on 3 network.
When I upgraded (before I rooted) the baseband was updated to XXUGNG1, but since then (even before I rooted) my signal isn't as good. What I'm looking for is to know what the modem/baseband version was before XXUGNG1 and where I can download a copy.
Thanks in advance for the help..

Reflash the firmware through ODIN (you can download it HERE) and you will recover the wifi :highfive:.

modem not working after upgrading from 4.4.2 to 5.0.1

I am assuming that all flashed OK? If so did you flash the rom straight after to get the Stock OB8 kernel? If ALL has flashed fine in odin and you have installed Omega 41 then wifi should work.

First i flashed stock 4.4.2 modem from sammobile. (to make sure nothing is bricked after 100 times of failing to get wifi working)
It works oob without flashing any baseband (i think ufnc9 comes with this rom)
details rom here:
Model GT-I9505
Model name GALAXY S4 LTE Netherlands
Version Android 4.4.2
Product code PHN
PDA I9505XXUGNG8
CSC I9505PHNGNF1
Then i flashed
Model GT-I9505
Model name GALAXY S4 LTE Netherlands
Version Android 5.0.1
Product code PHN
PDA I9505XXUHOB7
CSC I9505PHNHOB2
System --> Setting still shows baseband UFNC9.
Im using openrecovery-twrp-2.8.6.0-jfltexx (but after installing it and reboot to recovery it shows 2.8.5.0.
(flashed with Odin V3.10 under the AP section, right? i believe im doing evrything ok, have flashed alot of roms on this phone before)
(in the earlier try, current state is clean stock 5.0.1 rom with root and twrp 2.8.5.0, no working wifi)
I peformed all steps here exactly.
