Check if your sim card is seated properly. If that doesn't fix it try a factory data reset from the settings menu. Still no luck then Odin back to stock NI2. If after that it still isn't working contact Verizon with your stock phone, it may be a problem with your phone or with them.

no good. I bought the phone on Ebay, and it is currently using Page Plus. I tried rooting and flashing a custom rom, to no avail. All features work other than calls. Data and sms wouldnt work if the sim was unseated.

Just be patient and give the guys here some time, remember that in some parts of the world is midnight right now. Now, I assume you have tried that same sim card in other phones to make sure the problem is not the sim card.
Cheers

Well, I had the same problem with my s3. I did a factory reset, and it worked. Try flashing the stock rom again, and be brave because you might lose your phone from not flashing right.

S4 cannot hear on a phone call after KK update...

Hi guys,
I have a i9505 and downloaded the official kitkat rom when the phone prompted that a update was available. I downloaded via my 4G network/mobile data. Since then whenever i make phone calls or people call me i cannot hear them and they cannot hear me. If i reboot the phone it works right away OK! but after that throughout the day it is problem again.
Now i have rooted my phone and put a custom rom on... Guess what? same problem.
Someone please advise? its obviously a software related problem but how can it be when i have changed the rom completely and rooted the phone???
Can anyone at least point me to a forum that can help with android/ i9505 problems??
Did you perform full wipes/factory reset?
Did you try flashing a different modem?

Tried full factory reset without it being rooted. No joy.
Tried rooting then using different roms AND modems. No joy.
When i call someone, i cannot hear the dial tone on my S4. It connects i still cannot hear anything. The other person who picked up the phone cannot hear me. When i reboot the phone it works right away perfectly fine. But after that its gone again. Im stumped.
What happens if you go to the dialer > menu button > call settings > disable Screen off during calls.
My dad had something simmilair and it was caused by a malfunctioning proximity sensor.

No SIM - Insert Sim card

hey guys,
I have just gotten my phone back from repair. It was getting the cracked lCD replaced.
So i went and put my SIM card into the SIM slot then i rebooted my phone, just to see a "No SIM" message which then proceeded to say "Insert SIM card". My wifi and everything is working and i can make emergency calls. I have previously had problems with my EFS folder and a corrupt IMEI but i fixed that issue and i don't believe that these two incidents are related whatsoever.
This is the thread with all of the information of my last problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/service-t2898890
To try and solve this new problem, i have done the following:
1. Taken the sim card out and restarted phone and entered the sim card back in numerous times in various different sequences.
2. Done a full factory reset, reflashed a new rom, modem and bootloader.
3. Restored the EFS folder.
4. Tried a different SIM card.
This could be a hardware issue, but i feel as though it is software related, but i am no genius so i am open to any suggestions as to what it may be and how i may be able to fix it. If i am not able to fix it i will just send it back to the phone repairers and see what they can do to resolve the problem, but that would be the last thing i want to do.
thanks for any help.
not to worry. I have now solved the problem and everything is working perfectly.

i was on android 4.4.2 thouchwiz, i then upgraded to android 5, which also meant i had to upgrade the modem, which seemed to fix the problem. I then downgraded back down to android 4.4.2 touchwiz and that solved the problem.
so maybe you could try upgrading your modem or something? let me know if that works.

By modem do you mean radio?
It's an unrooted phone in my case, unfortunately.
the modem is a file or software i guess you could say in which controls the the signal on your phone.
hmmmm, im not sure what you could do then... im guessing you do not plan on rooting either?

Mobile data doesn't work after chanhing a ROM

Hi. I was originally on Pixel Xperience, but I decided to change to Candy. I read that mobile data is working there so I did it without any doubts about it. I factory's reseted my phone with TWRP deleting also system, because I wanted a fresh start... And everything went smoothly, but now the phone refuses to recognize any of my two sim cards... One of them is 4G and the other one isn't.
Does any of you know a way of restoring my mobile network service? Preferably without having to reflash stock or something.. thanks in advance for just reading this!

Are you using OpenGApps? I've had similar problems with some roms.
