No Sound, Tried Multiple Fixes i9505

I've got a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 Australian Model. The Snapdragon one.
I initially had Omega V10, I upgraded to V18 and the sound turned itself on and off, but then it started rebooting randomly and sound stopped all together. I upgraded to V19 with the same issue of no sound after the first call is made. I re-installed V19, V18 & 10 a few times. I flashed the appropriate modem for my old boot-loader several times on each rom and done clean installs as well.
I then moved to the Pheonix ROM, Installed exactly as the instructions stated. I then installed the modem as per instructions as I was having issues with the GSM/LTE then after the first call sound stopped working all together. I flashed ROM again and again, flashed the modem again, flashed a Wi-Fi Fix modem, flashed the kernel a couple of times and sound still doesn't work. It's every time after the first call is made, it just disappears.
I then decided to do a stock recovery in Odin. I installed official stock firmware XXUBMG4. Still no sound, I was getting the sound on boot but now it's gone all together.
What's my next step here? I'm almost certain I didn't flash an incorrect modem file but maybe I did........Should I try installing official 4.3? Is this something to do with installing a modem that's higher than what I should have installed and now I can't go back but only forward eg: 4.3?
I've lost root now as I flashed the official stock firmware via Odin, I'm happy to do whatever it takes to get the sound working. I'm not fussed at all about warranty.

Before you flash the file your downloading now would you mind Downloading and extract this file (You should see GSM_Modem_XXUEMFK_and_LTE_Modem_XXUBMH1.ta r)then flash the http://www.mediafire.com/download/48r0rgqv25s8968/GSM_Modem_XXUEMFK_and_LTE_Modem_XXUBMH1.rar file with odin by selecting phone. I want you to turn off your phone manually and wait a few sec and Press and hold Power+ Volume down Until you reach Download mode. Now open odin and select PHONE/CP and flash away. Have a nice day.

I just flashed this but it didn't fix the sound, as soon as it loaded I had an error coming up in the notification bar asking me to reboot as something was detected, something along those lines. It's the first time I've seen that error come up...is that something to do with Knox?
I'll flash the file the firmware I'm downloading now in 10 mins then see what happens. Or should I flash the firmware then flash this modem after?

Okey Im guessing you have the new bootloader since you said "knox" try to download and extract this and flash the http://www.mediafire.com/download/hdzf6fbobotxi61/GSM_Modem_XXUEML4_and_LTE_Modem_XXUML4.rar file with odin by selecting phone. This is a fix only but if the problem still persist feel free to flash the file that other guy gave you. im only giving you this fix just because alot of people had this problem that got fixed.Go to Settings and make sure that modems flashed ok

Ok no worries. I've already flashed the other firmware that the other person gave me. I'm now flashing this modem as the sound didn't work still. I didn't have Knox until I downloaded the firmware the other person suggested to download. I don't care about voiding Knox as I don't need it or use it.
I'll see what happens when I flash this modem. Thanks!

Ok, so far I've flashed the Official Stock Firmware XXUBMG4. I then flashed the GSM_Modem_XXUEMFK_and_LTE_Modem_XXUBMH1.tar. I then flashed the OPS 4.3 Firmware with Knox, I then flashed the XXUML4 Modem. None of this has fixed the sound, I'm not also getting random reboots every 30 secs or so.
So frustrating!! Why so complicated :S :S

If you just got a new bootloader aka Knox warranty Void that's okey , flashing any modem wont void your warranty . But if you flash a custom rom/Root then its over.If your knox got void means no more warranty for your device. Have a nice day.

Yeah still not working. I've tried different versions of Odin and run them as administrator in windows. I've tried 2 USB Cables also, Is it something to do with the PIT file? I was reading something about it from here:

If u still having MK9 firmware installed in your phone:
Download and unrar this FILE
Use Odin
Untick Autoreboot
Flash modem (the file u downloaded in step one (.tar))
Put off ur battery and put in again
Reboot into Download Mode (Vol Down + Home button combi)
Flash Modem once more
Put off ur battery and put in again
Once done, unplug then reboot device manually.
If this doesn't work, try repeating the flash process again while rebooting manually and with auto-reboot option turned off.

[Q] i9505 Wi-fi / Dialler not working

Just got my phone back from the repair shop and I seem to have messed up its ability to be a phone! Managed to restore a nandroid (seems it was still rooted) but the wifi / calls weren't working ...
The CSC code revealed with so I tried CSC changer from the shop and inadvertently made things worse ... I've ended up with a German CSC and can't get it back to BTU! (CSC changer goes through the motions but can't change it back )
So I thought I'd try to get back to the main problem, this longer 'CSC' number that gets displayed with *#1234# - it shows both my AP and CP as:
I9505XXUBMEA
But the 'CSC' here is:
I9505OXABMEA
I'm hoping if I can change that I'll be closer to get this phone working? Can anyone help? (NB it's on Android 4.2.2. right now)
Thanks! :laugh:

Damn, well, still pulling out my hair here. So far I've tried installing the same pre-rooted ROM that got me set up last time I rooted:
I9505XXUBMEA-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL.tar.md5
No wifi...
Then as I seemed to remember similar problems last time, the following files:
I9505XXUBMEA-MODEM.tar.md5 (via 'PHONE')
I9505XXUBMEA-WiFi-FIX.tar.md5 (via 'PHONE')
All go fine over ODIN, but I still have no WI-FI and the dialler goes blank if I try and make or receive calls! ><
Any help would be much appreciated..

Have you tried flashing the original stock firmware?

Not sure which one to use! Does it matter? Want to stay on 4.2.2 and keep life simple (seems 4.3+ complicates things) .. but I can't seem to find a 4.2.2 UK ROM (That's BTU, right?)
Can anyone point me in the direction of a stock ROM that I can flash to reset things?

Glad you got help in the other thread.

For sure all was ok before you restored ur backup. Dont restore more backups atm:
1. Make a backup of ur Internal Memory
2. Make a factory reset (Settings > Accounts > Back Up and Reset > Factory Data Reset > Reset Device > Delete All/Erase Everything.)
3. Conect it to Kies 3
4. Kies 3 will give u the info you need for know ur correct CSC. This will be btw parenthesis close CSC.
5. Knowing ur CSC, take a look for this firmware in Sammobile.com
6. Download and flash it with ODIN (Dont flash a "Black EDITION" if ur phone isnt it)
7. Dial *#1234# again and take a look if u have the same what Sammobile was telling you. If not, flash again the firmware. (Example in pic attached)
8. Attach more problems here if u still having them :highfive:

Thanks so much Joku. I've got to step 4 but it doesn't give me a lot of info. Offers firmware upgrade then says :
Current firmware: PDA:MEA / PHONE:MEA / CSC: MEA (DBT)
No idea what this means or how to find relevant firmware in step 5 so any advice would be much appreciated!
Cheers

Yeah. You was right. It was very difficult to find coz is an old firmware. I give u the link of what i found: HERE
*EDIT: Continuing step 6:
- Download and unzip this firmware
- It will give ya 2 files. You can delete the .dll
- Put ur phone in DOWNLOAD MODE and conect it to ur pc
- Open ODIN and flash the firmware (like the example in pic attached)
- Wait the process till end and enjoy ur phone again like new

Many thanks for the link Joku! Downloading now, I'll let you know how it goes..

Damn, not having any luck with this file - I've tried downloading it twice now on different PC's but it fails to write - drops out after aboot.mbn then 'complete(write) operation failed'...

So update... found I couldn't flash ANYTHING after the failed stock ROM flash, so I got a .PIT file and flashed that, now the phone boots again at least! Now downloading the Spanish stock ROM suggested by Malyrbu - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52635376&postcount=12236
One question - do these stock ROM files contain a kernel too? Might getting the right stock kernel help fix things?
Thanks!

1. You dont need flash any Spanish stock ROM. Flash only the one I was telling you. I downloaded the DBT firmware and works perfect for me. OTHER LINK -> HERE
2. The firmware i told ya (DBT) contain STOCK Kernel too.

Weird, tried it a few times on different PC's now. Will try redownloading from your new link, thanks!

*sigh* well I still couldn't get that stock ROM to flash... re-downloaded from your new link and ran it again, fails in the same spot! Not sure what's going on... might try that Spanish 4.2.2.? If it would fix my wifi problem I could then go ahead and add a custom ROM, right? :crying:

Well, Spanish ROM borks too! >< ... looks the same as the other one you sent. If it's any help, I can see in tiny red text on the S4 screen -
SW REV. CHECK FAIL : fused : 3, Binary : 1

Ah f*ck, I think I may have borked phone stock flashing by trying to install a higher firmware ROM when I first got the phone back... not sure but when I google the SW REV CHECK FAIL that seems to be the problem people have.
Dunno what's going on... when I get the phone to boot after flashing PIT again it says Android Version 4.2.2 in the 'About Device'... but I still can't get WIFI to work ><

If it was in warranty I'd take it back about now, sadly it's an ebay'd phone!

OK I think I may have sussed out why it's not working. Really sorry for the confusion but I think I screwed things up right at the start, and then didn't remember ... one of those dumb things you do playing with your phone late at night. The first ROM I tried to flash, right after getting it back from repair, was a 4.4.2! .... I had no idea what a big deal that was ><
SO ... thankyou for bearing with me this long! Feel like such an idiot right now. I guess then that some fundamental thing has gotten changed by the ROM I tried then (it was this one ). DOH!
As I understand it, there's no going back now and I'll have to stick with 4.4.2 - please correct me if I'm wrong!

1. The problem that you have is common. You flashed different firmwares and your device is corrupted.
2. Install Kies 3 for know ur CSC (pic 1). Go to Sammobile.com and download the correct firmware 4.4.2 (correct region) for your device.
3. Flash again this firmware and let the process finish till the final. Dial again *#1234# and verify if all is correct like the firmware you downloaded and installed before (AP, CP and CSC). Flash again same firmware if not.
* FASTEST SOLUTION: Flash the STOCK Rom that you flashed the first time once again and problem solved.

[Q] Note 3 N9005 Official Rom Update (changing version)

Hi. I've searched and found some ''usefull'' information, but none with a clear anwser to my question or a success/fail detail.
I have an HongKong (TGY) N9005 16GB, with the SW Version N9005ZHUENH4 (4.4 TGY Hong Kong)
There is no update for this ROM to Android 5 ithink. (well, mine says the SW has been modifield). I don't have root, and yes, tried to factory reset, and remove sdcard, but says the same ''software modified".
My questions are:
-Can I flash via odin, any european 5.0 oficial kdz ROM of N9005 16GB, to update my phone, without any problem?
-If yes, I only need a correspondent .pit file, and the rom?
-There will not be any issues like loosing IMEI, or no network ou something like that?
I want to stay on an original ROM with all Samsung features, without root.
Thank you!

I have 3 TGY 5.0 Rom's available. Don't need the .pit file, just flash and should be ok without imei problems or network problems?
Or should I make a backup of something first?

Yes, you can. Always is good:
1. Copy all the internal memory folders to your pc.
2. Make a backup of your EFS folder with this APP to your pc too.
3. It's better flash with ODIN the latest firmware for your device. It's this ONE . You don't need pit file and you don't gona have problems with IMEI or signal if your device is totally original. The update don't make factory reset (like in the pic attached).

You don't need use ODIN for that. Go to Settings - Backup and reset - (Check the options you wish: Backup my data, backup account, automatic restore) Factory data reset. Done.

(Problem) SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2. Binary: 1.

Hello guys!
I have a big problem with my S7 edge (G935F)... The problem begins when I forget to turn off the OEM security and then I did an update to my Magisk root... When I tried to reboot my phone it doesn't pass of the first logo image, meaning that I broke the "security", so I read about that and then I flashed a firmware, an official UK (BTU I guess) firmware and then I flashed TWRP via Odin to restore a nandroid that I did when I bought my phone... It restored the EFS partition/folder and when my phone reboots I had no network signal, no IMEI... I just tried everything (I hope not) and I can't give back my IMEI and my network signal... When I try to patch the certificate to recover my IMEI via Odin in the download mode it says: SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2. Binary:1
I don't know if I explained it because my english is too bad, but I tried, I know that someone else have the same problem than I because I saw it. Do you find the solution? I'm out of my country and I need it so much :crying:
Regards!

Thank you for answer me.
I did it with three diferent stock firmwares and the problem persists (no network signal) I think that is something with the EFS folder, I restored a backup of it but is the same, I have not signal yet, but thank you!

Hey brother it happened with me too, unfortunately, I had to format my internal storage to fix this, you need to flash the latest nougat firmware via odin with csc including bl and modem and then start in recovery then format and start phone, remember you would need to put the google account which was previously there in the phone to unlock and complete setup process (very important here)

Thank you! Do you know which Firmware I need to flash? Because I flashed a lot of firmwares and it didn't work! You would help me a lot if you give me the name of the one you used.
Here I have some screenshots of what appears in IMEI and SIM.

Download the latest firmware from https://updato.com (it's fast and reliable) then start in download mode, run odin with administrative privileges, select BL AP Modem and CSC (dont use home since we wish to clean fornat), and in odin uncheck auto reboot option, after the ODIN shows 'pass', disconnect the cord from pc, now you have to be very quick here since our battery is not removable, in order to shut down s7 edge from odin mode, all you have to do is press, volume down, volume up, home and power and as soon as it goes off connect the cord, the battery will show up and now it will be in charging state, after that disconnect the cord, (the phone is now clean fornatted and in off stage) and now boot into recovery to wipe data and cache using default recovery, then reboot phone and then log into your existing google account.
I know its tricky and maybe there's an ez way around it but this worked for me so I'm sharing

SOLUTION, thank you all for your answers!

I tried it at first instance but I could not because my Bootloader was updated to the "U2" version, what I did after that was search the Combination file updated to the U2 bootloader, after a long search I found it.
In resume, The solution is what the OP of that thread says but if you have the same problem like me with the Updated bootloader you need this file instead of the files that are shown there:

You already fixed the problem I guess, you only need to flash the same firmware that your phone had before flashing the Combination file.

Hello guys!
I have a big problem with my S7 edge (G935F)... The problem begins when I forget to turn off the OEM security and then I did an update to my Magisk root... When I tried to reboot my phone it doesn't pass of the first logo image, meaning that I broke the "security", so I read about that and then I flashed a firmware, an official UK (BTU I guess) firmware and then I flashed TWRP via Odin to restore a nandroid that I did when I bought my phone... It restored the EFS partition/folder and when my phone reboots I had no network signal, no IMEI... I just tried everything (I hope not) and I can't give back my IMEI and my network signal... When I try to patch the certificate to recover my IMEI via Odin in the download mode it says: SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2. Binary:1
I don't know if I explained it because my English is too bad, but I tried, I know that someone else has the same problem than I because I saw it. Do you find the solution? I'm out of my country and I need it so much :crying:
Regards!
