No mobile data after flashing ROM

Hi all
I'm finding it incredibly difficult to find information on this website. I eventually found myself in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49369627&highlight=australia#post49369627 having no idea what to look for. I've tried a number of different 'modems' in an attempt to get mobile data working with no success.
I'm Australian, and I got my S4 through telstra yesterday. At the moment, I've got as far as being able to make calls, send texts and use WiFi/sound (apparently that's been a problem for some) but still no access to mobile data. Can anyone tell me which bloody modem I need to flash to get this darned thing to work? Apparently, I'm not on the new bootloader as I don't get a message saying "Knox Warranty Void" when entering download mode (what.)
I'm using this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474
And CWM touch recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359132
Thanks in advance
PS. The last 3 galaxy S's I've had have all not had working battery charge indicators when the phone is switched off - regardless of ROM etc. Why is that? Can developers not fix it?

Hi there mate , Download and flash this file via odin by selecting Phone/CP , and Make sure to turn off your phone Manually before flashing or else it wont work.then go to Phone setting >More>Device info and check if your baseband changed to MKF Have a nice day

I've just checked since going back to stock ROM (which worked fine) and I DO have the newer bootloader, the one that says the message about Knox.
Will this mean I need a different modem driver?

Wait, never mind. All I needed was for something, somewhere, to say "look in the About Phone section of settings and download the modem version that matches". Wondered all day how on earth I was supposed to know which one I needed :victory:

If your phone work's fine without having any issue , just leave it like that mate but if your having a bad signal/data .etc feel free to flash that modem.having a newbootloader has nothing to do with a modem . if you have a newbootloader there is a chance that you can void your warranty, IE: flashing any custom rom/root and etc , and there's no chance for you to go back in 4.2.2 as well.

You can check that from here Sammobile

Still no luck with any custom ROM :crying:
I get mobile data when I flash the stock rom but with any of the custom ones I've tried, it won't work.
My phone has a "Qualcomm 4G" sticker on the top. Baseband is GI9505XXUEMI8
Thanks

First thing first. settings-> more-> about ->dvice: please state your model number.
Secondly: what, for the goddess' sake, triggered you to try the google ROM instead of the debloated TW one? Especially, if your phone was (presumably) not sim-unlocked?
I'd advice you to legally pay your operator (or someone else) to sim-unlock the phone, and then to seek for the customs/

Look maybe I'm missing something, but I have no idea how I'm expected to know these things. This forum is a mess, I have to wade through a mountain of threads to find ROM's and then every ROM is posted by someone who just assumes I know everything about how android works, which I don't. I don't see any warnings on any of them about flashing if the phone is sim-locked. Why is the sim-lock a problem? The phone is unlocked anyway, it was purchased outright. Perhaps there's a central list of essential readings or somesuch where I can learn all these things I'm expected to know but if it exists, it's not obvious and I haven't found it.

Hello again , If your having any problem with data such as dropping signal issue. I recommend you to try to flash a different 4.3 modem and that should probably fix your issue.or check your phone setting if the apn provider is correct. Have a nice day.

[Q] A few questions for SM-G710 (not dual sim i guess)

Hi, I live in Turkey and I bought this phone 6 days ago.The problem is;
1-) Can't root the phone (They told me i can't root the sm-g710 because it's for sm-g7102 in development section)
My questions are;
1-) In a picture, we see the phones that are going to get KitKat update and grand 2 is seen in the picture as SM-G7102.So does it mean SM-G710 is not going to get KitKat update?
2-) If it is, and if i can't root and update the phone should i give it back before it's too late? (I mean tomorrow, you know 7th day, returning it without question, last day)
And P.S : I don't mind KitKat update but i really have to root the phone for a few reasons.The most important reason for me is to remove that screen lock delay.First but not the last.

Help?

OH MY GOD !!!
CF-ROOT for 7102 WORKED FOR SM-G710.OOOO YEAH !!!
So this probably means GenNxt will work on SM-G710 too.Should i install it or try to modifiy like it without risking the phone?

SM-S902L , need help figuring out witch verizon s5 is a match

The sm-s902l is a new straight talk brand s5 runing kit kat 4.4.2 and uses the verizon network. Im working on rooting this phone and so far have only tried towel root and no suprise even with mod strings.
Anyways i was looking for help trying to get some educated guesses on which verizon phone this one is based off of. To explain straight talk phone users typically flash roms and recoveries made for other phones. Usually this works out fine my last straight talk s3 was using a verzion lolipop build and custom recoverys with minimal issues.
Anyways my guess is the SM-G900v any thoughts?

Really? No love for the straight talk guys? I'm going to try cf-auto-root tonight I'll let you know if I brick my $600 phone. If anyone has a good guess on what cf-auto-root package to use I am definitely open to suggestions.
I just can't live without root if I can't root this damn thing I'm going to go back to my s3
These things should come stock rooted its my phone and I'll f*** it up if I want to

Hey dude i know this post is old but i scoured the internet and cant find a working rom for the straight talk s5, care to direct me to a working rom that you got working on the straight talk s5? that would be greatly appreciated, i got one from walmart and its stuck on stock 4.4.2 and no luck finding a lollipop update on the OTA update method.

Every rom here will work on your phone. First boot can take up to 20 minutes on a new rom. Make backups.

[Help] [SM-S903VL] Help Rooting a Samsung Galaxy S5

Hi, my name is Kit and I am having trouble locating information on how to root the specific model for my phone.
Phone:Samsung Galaxy S5​
Model:SM-S903VL​
Carrier: Straight Talk​
Android Version: 6.0.1​
Baseband Version: S903VLUDU4APH3​
Kernal Version:
3.4.0-8867563
[email protected] #1
Wed Aug 10 18:39:36 KST 2016​
Build Number: MMB29M.S903VLUDU4APH3​
Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. I have tried looking about and only found a Chinese Website that mentioned the Firmware.
I am not sure if there isn't a root or if I am simply misunderstanding how to do something.
Please and thank you for taking time to try to help me.

Sorry for the double post and bump, but it has been a few days, and my topic seemed to be drifting away from page 1 and 2.
I still do need assistance if anyone can help.
Please and thank you.

I would like information too just got this phone and would like to root if possible.

same here, theres hardly any info about this phone.

I want this so hard

Do all of you have the same as me? Model, Build, Version and all of that?

Do you guys have an app for this device, Samsung Video, that just refuses to update?

Yep! I assumed it was from the fact that I had a Samsung Galaxy S4 before this phone. And I used that phone to restore my apps from. It says about Samsung Video (S4 & Note3) I believe for me.
Any ideas?

I haven't seen the beaming service app refuse to update. I'm not sure why it's doing this. The only thing I can assume is the new version of Samsung Video in the app store isn't compatible with the Galaxy S5 (or the installed firmware), and that somebody in quality control wasn't doing their due diligence.
I've been really happy with this phone so far, just wish I could root it. I haven't tried any suggested methods yet, I'm waiting to see what successes other people are having first before I brick my phone (I'm chicken!). I've been following this thread as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...p-rooting-straight-talk-s5-sm-s903vl-t3503505

Just got this phone about a month or so ago and I can't find anything about rooting it. It is very frustrating because everyone keeps ignoring posts about this phone and it then drifts away and nothing gets answered. I have tried the @kxhan15 's method on root a similar version from Straight Talk but fails in ODIN trying to flash TWRP. I really wish someone would come to the rescue with an answer!

I don't know if there is some other information I can provide that may help or where else to look for assistance. In all honesty I just feel useless having to wait.

Give us root! Dev gods hear our cries!

I have these files. Anyone know what to do to make it into root?

Doesn't the TowelRoot v3 app let you modify some code to let you use it with phones that are not yet compatible? I looked into it but I don't quite understand it.
Hopefully someone is working on it behind the scenes and is just keeping it under wraps.
Maybe it will be a holiday present for us! Wishful thinking though.

Yeah you're right.. I have the galaxy s8 sm-g950f, also on stock Android 9 right now.. I like the one ui but we probably won't get android 10 from Samsung so I thought of searching for a custom ROM..
