Gs4 i337m no Mic or sound - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, this is my first question here and I'm kinda getting desperate. I have a gs4 i337m locked to bell in Canada. I had it rooted with the stock Rom and uprooted to use kies to update. After the update my wi-fi didn't work anymore, also lost the use of Mic, and the speakers no longer work. I tried flashing the most current Rom that I could find and that didn't work. So I tried flashing cm11. After installing cyanogenmod 11 my wi-fi works but the speakers and Mic still don't work. If anyone can point me in the direction of a fix it would make my millennium. Thanks in advance.
Sincerely
C-Dawg

[Q] Phone app not working no incoming calls and unable to hang up outgoing calls

ok first let me say
this i believe my first post
i search and read a lot but comment none
so here we go
i have a SPH-L720 that i UNLOCKED and use on Straight talk
im currently running the latest Beanstalk Rom 4.4.2 215 for sprint
the versions before this ...
my baseband is MDC
i have wiped cach/davlik/and everything else
i have reinstalled clean
i have tried a different kernel (chronic)
i have tried different phone modes im currenlty on global (have tried GSM/Wcdma prefered etc.) and tested after a reboot
i think its the phone.apk itself
this phone worked flawlessly on the darthstalker rom multi-carrier
and aside from the no incoming calls & the inability to hang up out going calls everything works perfect
EVERYTHING
IM A BEANSTALK DIE HARD
i dont want to use another rom for me this rom is PERFECT
thanks for the help -Sean

Does it just not ring or does it not power up for you to answer? And same for hang up does the screen come back on? Can you make calls?

Had the same issue
I had the same issue with my S4. tried the Heimdall fix and it did not work for me.
Finally I had to flash MK2 and get back on to 4.3
The phone app works fine now. I tried to flask 4.4.2 rom again yesterday but still no luck with the dialer. Staying on 4.3 until we can find a solution to the dialer app crashing or Samsung releases 4.4.2 for S4
Same problem GS4 Sprint
Greetings,
Same problem here, I haven't tried incoming calls as I installed the ROM last night. But I'm not able to hang up a phone call.
Any suggestions appreciated.

What ROM? Firmware? Clean install?
Sent from my SCH-R970 using Tapatalk
I also have the same issue....i tried to update from stock rooted mk2 (with mf9 bootloader) to stock rooted NAE kitkat
But the phone app doesn't respond even i flashed the NAE only modem but no luck.
I tried to flash back to mk2 modem but no success (Baseband: Unknown)
Now I am downloading the stock mf9 .tar file to flash through odin...may be the modem or efs is corrupted.
then i will see if the phone app will work?

[Q] Galaxy S4 i337m - NO AUDIO WHATSOEVER

Total Noob here. I have a GS4 (Canadian Rogers Model i337m). When flashing CM 10.2 I wiped dalvik cache, system, data, internal storage, and cache (to get all the samsung stuff off my device) and formatted data. After flashing, everything worked perfectly EXCEPT there is no audio from anywhere. No systems sounds, no notification sounds, no music (headphones don't even work), absolutely nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been racking my brain all day trying to figure something out. Thanks.
Stock firmware?
sent from my mobile device
Ive got the same issue, I was running OMNI rom until i got fed up of the phone powering off on its own. I decided to flash back to stock rom with odin then flash CM11 nightly. Thats about when I lost sound. Not only do I not have sound, the phone freezes up every time I use an app ( even dialer ) which requires sound. I've since tried flashing back to stock again in Odin, even trying different stock firmwares. I've still got the issue and the phone is basically useless as a phone without sound... Please help. Is this a modem issue? If so, how to I flash a new modem that will work, and doesn't flashing stock replace the modem anyway? Could this be a bootloader issue? I've been flashing roms and playing around with android for a while but I'd still consider myself a noob.
Same
I got the same thing here, No music plays at all, My phone completely froze when someone tried to call me. also complete noob at this stuff.
I did find a couple ROM's that were i337m 4.3. But none did anything, but did the same thing. All had no audio at all. I also get screen flashing a lot (That could just be my water damage)
Wouldn't mind finding an answer for this either!

I have yet to find a ROM that will let me Flash via Odin (Correction I did find one, but the same problems came up, no WIFI and no Audio), so the one I currently have is Goldeneye, which was flashed via CWM
Flash i337m 4.3 official firmware
You might wanna try flashing a new kernel. That usually fixes Wifi issues at least.

Hey MrKhozam thanks a bunch!
Sidenote, anyone know any Stock kernels of i337m? Or if they are even available for download. Or a way to get 'em?

[Q] Hotspot Mod

Hi, I'm trying to get the native Hotspot working, but there's something weird going on. I'm able to turn it on without getting the sprint message, but my laptop doesn't seem to be able to connect to it. My laptop can see the wifi connection and everything but when trying to connect it just fails.
I flashed the correct odex Nae file. Also I'm on 4.4.2 rooted. Done this many times b4 with prior versions.
I used TWRP to install. I also tried the manual by adding to the framework. I have the menus setting Hotspot.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My phone is a Sprint Galaxy S4

[Q] WiFi unstable stock rom; CM11 possible cure?

My AT&T S4's wifi connection has become basically useless. Both at home and at work it frequently drops out and says the connection is unstable. At home, this happens when I'm in the same room as the router. These symptoms started happening after the OTA updates, but seem to have gotten continually worse. I've tried the usual settings changes to no avail.
Is there any reason to believe that putting a custom rom on my S4 will solve the wifi stability issue? If so, I'd happily give it a shot before I completely give up and get a new phone. And, I've had the hardest time trying to figure which guide to use to install a custom rom. I have a US AT&T SGH i337 that is running 4.4.2, and the Baseband version is I337UCUFNC1, Kernal version 3.4.0-1125940. I rooted my s4 using towelroot.
Thanks for the help, hoping I can fix my S4 and keep it...
If it were me I'd flash the nb1 tar file and see if I had the same Wi-Fi issue. You might have a hardware issue. If everything worked then I'd take the ota to nc1. If you have a problem now it's probably the modem image.
Use the rootable nb1 tar file, it's rootable with towelroot.
Flashing the tar in Odin will wipe your device so make sure you backup first.

Reflash the NB1 tar file in ODIN and see if it works then. You can find it in the general section, either search for the thread or find it in the [INDEX] thread.

started working for 5 hours then returned same issue...
I used Odin to root it using Nc1 Then finished with J4 ...
im guessing this must be a problem many are facing. a friend of mine gave me a an S4 logic board i337m variant and it has the same issue i have tried everything from flashing new roms flashing stock frimwares tried different kernels modems nothing seems to work. i second this post to see if we can find a solution. my phone is a I337m and have flashed GOLDENEYE to get the lollipop experience a month before the official Lollipop came out for the canadien variants and i have not had any problems i was wondering if i made a backup with trwp and see if this might fix this problems and if it does i can upload my exact backup to help other. but i was wondering if a dev can help me out and see if this could be a possible solution.
In the same boat aswell
I gave my phone to someone to update it to lollipop GPE about 2 months ago.... wifi would work but my data connection would cut out the minute the screen shut off.... after contemplating going back to the guy.... i downgraded to hyperdrive kitkat rom witch gave me better connectivity but no wifi... I ve been living with that for up until now until I decided enough is enough and flashed the stock lollipop rom yesterday. still no wifi. whats even more frustrating is I cant find the file path thats being mentioned so commonly as the solution.... and yes I am rooted. Also wifi was working no problem before I updated..

Well last night I went from 4.4.4 back to 4.4.2 to see if thus would solve the wifi and blue tooth head ache. It all started working just fine and did all the way up till tonight then back to not working. I then resulted to cleaning the Wifi prongs on the phone and it worked again for few hours. Now the weird thing happens I put it back into the phone case and just from snapping it in it stop working AGAIN. I restarted the phone once taken out of the case and it was working so I think I'm at a conclusion it's a mechanical issue not software. Maybe the wifi circuit us faulty
I've had lots if Galaxy and worked on a few friends but this wifi and blue tooth crap us unbearable.
My Bluetooth is fine. My wifi broke after downgrading to kit kat so I know it works It just seems the wifi files are corrupted or missing. I'm sure it's simple I'm just not savvy enough to implement it
