Losing signal after updating CM - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
I installed the latest CM from the official website and now I have problems with my signal.
Most of the times, the phone can not find a signal. Sometimes it catches it, but it will last for 4-5 minutes. If I go into flight mode and come back, the signal will be there for 1 minute. When I don't have signal, there's the R near the signal bar (Roaming).
I haven't changed my modem with the new installation (I9505XXUAMDC). I am on the O2 / TESCO Mobile network in Ireland.

Hi mate ,
I assume you have an I9505 , there is know issue with modem/bootloader incompatibility you may have to use a modem wifi fix or upgrade the bootloader to use the newer modems

Should I install only the modem or the Wi-Fi fix aswell (with the combined package)?

Hi mate ,
If i am not wrong that is a 4.2.2 modem , if you don't worry about the warranty anymore i would get the full package
MODEM / LTE / BOOTLOADER

I fixed it by installing the modem+Wi-Fi fix. I was afraid of installing the bootloader, as if something goes wrong when installing the modem, it can be fixed, but I don't think it's the same with the bootloader

what was the last thing u did to the phone before it started to lose signal
I did nothing am basic usher. No dropped, no experiments. Two days ego wake up and i cant ring.
Firmware upgrade official via Kies .??? Or Samsung stock firmware via Odin .
Correct CSC in phone for your country likewise correct modem.

It happened before upgrade, after upgrade no changes i did it via kies samsung stock firmware. I bought it in England i live in England. What that is CSC ?
Check with your network to see if the IMEI has been blocked. I've had this happen - it was an error on the networks part.
EDIT: ...I say network, but it was the the third party that provides the block list that really made the mistake (it was blocked on all networks for 2 weeks!)

Modem tested : ME2 and MDF
Operator : Bouygues France

My problem now, since the installation of KitKat, I can't shut off my screen without loss my signal, but I only lost the 3g and 4g, when I force 2g only, I don't lost the signal. 3g and 4g are fonctionnals when my screen is on, everything work, I can call, send SMS, have mobile data (in 2g, 3g and 4g), but impossibe to shut off my screen without signal lost....
So should I try an other modem (if yes, wich one to keep old bootloader), or downgrade to 4.2 on my old stock rom ?

Flash a 4.3 or 4.4.2 GSM modem only and that should fix your Dropping signal issue. Download the modem from here and check the Modem base from your Country/Provider from here. Have a nice day.
If I flash the MKF for exemple it will not install the new bootloader ? (it's the newer modem of my operator)
I've download the FNB8 modem, so the same number of my version, why there is a NON-HLOS.bin file in it ?

You can download and flash any GSM modem mate but dont flash any latest Wififix/nonhlos because you will loose your sound. Pls feel free to hit the thanks button.
Edit:For Old bootloader you can't flash any newer LTE/NON-HLOS/WIFIFIX modem than UBMH1.
" Sent from Hell "
I've flashed the XXUEMKF and it seems to work, I don't know if it's newer of UBMH1 or not, but everything seems ok
(and Thanks for your help )

Lost Signal after Lollipop update

Hi guys
My phone was rooted but never flashed a ROM on it. Today I updated my phone to Lollipop through Kies Mac. After that my signal is not there. When I reboot the phone I get signal for few seconds then it gets lost again. Also phone never saves my Wi-fi connections.
I did reset my phone but still the same.
It was locked to Vodafone and I unlocked it in Vodafone shop when I first bought it do you think anything related to that?
How can I downgrade to KitKat or get my signal working?
Same here. Do any of you guys know how to solve this issue?

Please use the search function of this site and google, don't be lazy. There is a thread about downgrading . Also try flashing lollipop modem/bootloader, for this visit any of the TouchWiz Lollipop rom threads (like the one in my signature) most of them talk about flashing modems and bls.

[Q] I9505. No signal when using 3G/4G. 2G works

Hi.
After updating Danvh's lolipop-rom to the latest version, I lost my signal and wifi. When I force my phone to use 2G (GSM only) in network-settings, everyting works normal.
But of cource I want the speed of 3G and 4G when using internet!
Sometimes (not often) 3G works.
Sometimes the phone says it has signal, but calls, internett etc don't work
I tried to flash the latest modem (XXUHOC6), but no luck. Have also tried modem XXUGNK4, XXUHOB8 and XXUHOB7. I tried to go back to the older version of the custom rom, but no luck
I have now downloaded the latest official stock rom from sammobile. But same problem with stock rom.
Any suggestions?
I have IMEI
Sorry, I have the same problem and I am still searching for a solution. And I have been trying everything as you and no solution. Sometimes I think is a hardware issue.
Very frustrating :S
Hope to find a solution soon.
I dont want to buy a new phone yet. There is no other phones out there that I want

Recent unimagined issue with data network.

From couple of days I am facing a bit unique problem that whenever I enable my data into #GSM it shows h+ and runs 3g and after a while it auto changes into E from h+ and within a minute data network gets disabled.. And again it auto enable data and same process starts: h+ to E, E to h+ and disable / enable.. Network data gets disable enable automatically...
Maybe a provider problem
Hello and thank you for using Q/A,
did you try a factory rest. It can be a provider problem.
Kind regards

How you recently update your phone's firmware?
If so, Its not really an unique problem, since I am experiencing the same.
With an OTA update to I9505XXUPOL1, my data connection was not working at all.
To fix my data connection problem, I have flashed I9505XXUHPA1, which was stable connection, but only E (gsm) connection, it has disable LTE.
Sources within this forum say that I9505VJUHOK1 (south america firmware) works properly, I have not tested it yet. If some can confirm please let me or us know.
I download my firmware from the sammobile website
