Hey guys,
About 2 months ago I brought an i9505, it's overseas stock I think it had firmware for Netherlands? Anyway it worked perfectly fine in Australia. No issues what so ever. I recently though ok I really want to root my phone and install an AOSP rom. I flashed the 4.4.4 Google Play Edition rom located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353 I also tried out a few other ROMs but with every ROM I had this problem with reception dropping down to 1 bar randomly, then at times the antenna would be gone all together and had some circle with a line through it. Sometimes it comes back but if I leave my phone over night when I wake up in the morning I cant send sms's or make calls.
I don't know what im doing wrong ive followed the instructions corresponding to the ROM developers notes. I really don't want to return to stock firmware because that's the only firmware that currently works fine.
Cheers.

Hello everyone, so I will explain the problem, yesterday I flashed a rom galaxy S5 on my Note 3
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2771454) however she was not stable enough,
so I came back to a stock rom by putting a theme S5, so far so good but just now in the car I
decided to put the GPS and nothing, no signal the car was not moving on google maps ...
Do you have a idea where the problem could come??
Thank you very much!
Stop being lazy and do some reading on the S5 rom thread.
Sent from my N9005

Hello guys. I have the n900t, I am now running tweaked s5 base n4 style v6.0. And I run alot of n9005 ROMS as well. With that said here is my issue. For only the past few weeks ( month tops) every time i make or recieve a phone call my data drips down to hspa. The second i hit call and right before my phone rings is when it happens. After my call the data takes a very long time to jump back up. This is a new issue and i have no idea what it is. However, i did flash back to a stock ROM and the issue was solved. And i forget which rom it was but it was soley TE based and there were no issues. I did try to flash a modem but it didnt take. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Or can anyone suggest a fix for it.
Thank you for your help.
bump.
Still having the issue. I tried to flash a new modem and it just failed anyway. Dont know if I should try a radio. I just cant fivure out why this happened out of no where. I was fine no matter what ROM I was running. Now...this crap. Please guys, 40 people saw this, can SOMEBODY please help.

1) Quite strange - your picture suggests you are on Verizon yet you comment about a N900T in the forum for the INTERNATIONAL Note 3. On what network are you? Are you aware that there might be network-specific factors involved which could only be visible for other users on exactly the same network in exactly the same region?
2) Try stock ROM (with corresponding stock modem) from a location with very good signal.
5 he physical device is an n900t, however, I am running as of now, the hyper drive note 5 port with n4 UI. When I do flash back to a full stock TW ROM all is good, A FEW TW based ROMs seem to be OK. Like this one, the calls do not affect the data signal. But most ROMs do effect it in that way. You said that it shows I'm running Verizon?
But I am very curious why all of the sudden I am having this issue. I have never had it before. Except with a few specific AOSP based ROMs. I just can't figure out what it is that's causing it. I have done vigorous wipes of the phone to no avail.
And I am in Philadelphia so there really is no place that is actually bad reception (except in the susubways of course...lol)
And thank you for your reply.

1) Your avatar mentions Verizon for some reason.
2) If it is all OK with the stock ROM then it is a problem with the custom ROM, ask in the specific thread for that specific ROM. Most likely it has something to do with the modem and the corresponding RIL.
So when ever a new ROM is flashed the modem is flashed as well. Unless the dev says otherwise?
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!
Good day.
Recently i had to take out of the cellar my good old Galaxy S4 to be a replacement phone for my GF.
The problem is that since i installed Lollipop stock rom, bluetooth stopped working, but wifi still works.
I have googled it for a solution, but found none. Tried to install several different Stock and AOSP rom.
Did anyone had the same problem and solved it?
Thank you.
Hello Guys,
I bought an S4 and I discovered that I was scammed (it was the sprint version and not the GT-I9500 as it was indicated on my about phone tab). It comes with 4.4.2 and everything was working fine (the only things that bugs me was that I was unable to receive updates). Recently I encountered some little issues so I decided to install a new ROM. I tried the Vanir and Commotio ROM and for a moment I was super satisfied (it was an amazing experience). However after putting back my SIM card, each time I try to deal a call, I got the error "mobile network is unavailable". I thought it was an issue from the ROM I used so I tested the LineageOS and same issue. Finally I tested the STOCK ROM Lollipop and the same issue again except this time the WiFi does not work. Now my phone is completely useless, so can anyone help please ?
PS: When I go to settings->about->status, everything about the SIM info(network, my phone number,...) is set to unknown. the IMEI is intact (non null). IMEISV is 00.
