[Q] No data on Verizon S4 after flashing custom rom - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My S4 running Echoe rom via Safestrap refuses to use any 3G/4G etc data connection. I can call people just fine, though. I tried setting up an APN, but apparently it got removed from Settings, and I don't even think it matters with Verizon. I'm on 4.4.2 NK1. Is there any mod that I can flash to solve this?

GT-i9505 No mobile network/data after flashing custom ROM

Hi guys been searching all day when I can grab some free WiFi, basically I rooted my s4 gti9505 with auto root and then installed custom recovery, and flashed PAC rom. I'm unable to make calls or receive mobile data but can use WiFi. My settings say baseband unknown .. I'll attach a picture of my settings here in this thread. I have attempted to flash a modem/radio in Odin but this didn't seem to make any difference, the problem is I'm not sure if it was the right thing to do (didn't make a back up of my phone foolishly before flashing PAC rom)
I'd appreciate any help with this guys! My network is vodaphone UK if that makes any difference to any advice given...
Thanks in advance!

will do this too, have just finished flashing MGA modem twice using your steps, will flash rom again..i wonder if i should wipe/factory wipe as i would when installing new rom...ill try it!
no luck -still no network. im running out of ideas
network - unknown
mobile network type - unknown
imei unknown
imei sv - unknown
going out now for a while but thought id ask - do you think that installing official stock rom (perhaps from your s4 unrooting guide) would help flashed via odin? from searching i can see that some folk suggest that stock will reinstall everything i need...im hoping so, i really wouldnt mind going back to stock, anythings better than this

did you put modem in "phone" in odin?
hmmm weird! i guess your imei is not corrupted, sometimes while flashing rom in cwm, efs partition is not detected, so flashing modem twice should work
you can try with an other modem, use new one (but im sure to flash it twice)
another option is trying to flash your stock firmware

yes put it in "phone" mode, thats the second or third one i have flashed now so im not sure it wont help but for sure ill try again!
are you able to determine that its not corrupted? would it state as such if it were? im going to flash a stock firmware as a last resort. lost after that haha
edit - installed cwm using sgs4 flasher and re-installed my custom rom and gapps, booted no probs and network now working - sorted!! thanks for your help i dont think i would have reflashed the rom without your advice to do so
So I'm practically in the same boat. I'm currently on P.A.C. man nightly 09/18 (Vodafone Germany branded device). I never had similar problems, but now I can't call (or be called) and I'm not able to use mobile data.
I nearly tried everything:
1) I checked the IMEI (saved it before switching over to custom roms), but an IMEI number is still there.
2) Went back to stock to see if it's a problem of P.A.C. man ROMS or not. On stock it didn't work either.
3) Went back to P.A.C. man ROM and flashed modem XXUBMF8 via Odin 3.04 (from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025)
4) Flashed the modem again after I flashed the ROM because it didn't work either.
So I'm completely lost now, I really don't know what to do next. I had mobile data for a couple of seconds every now and then, but nothing stable. And since the problem came up (yesterday evening) I can not make any calls at all.
Can someone help me?
Edit: The very strange thing is that I have full reception balks in the notification area (only in grey). But still, I guess this means that the device is somehow able to detect a signal but can not connect to it?
Edit2: I apparently have no Device-ID. May that be a problem?
So I took some screenshots to show you guys my problem a bit better. For some reason my mobile data now works (currently HSPA, but it's extremely slow). But I still can't make any calls (or get called too). =/
Edit: So to sum this up: the strangest thing about this problem is, that even when I go back to full stock I can't make calls. =/ What could be the problem? An IMEI number is present in the settings (althouh the 'IMEI SV' under 'About phone' --> 'Status' was one digit below the current one that I can see under those stats). The whole problem makes me believe that my provider can't sort my phone number to my device (I'm on Vodafone; but if that's really the case: why the hell does mobile data works sometimes?!). The other possibility: something with the modem/radio is broken. Could this be the problem? The thing is that I also tried to flash a custom modem, but the problem is still there...
I'm really concerned that my phone just became an expensive paperweight
Slightly different than my problem in that I didn't even have any bars for reception..my problem was fixed by changing the custom recovery software (originally I used philz to flash PAC), But I flashed cwm and then used this to again flash PAC, and all was good..don't ask my why but it helped me so you might want to try this...

Thank you for your answer!
You also flashed a different modem didn't you? Did this help or was it only the custom recovery? I'm confused because I used CWM before and never had problems. But then this mess all came up...
Yes I flashed several modems, that didn't help..only using a different custom recovery to flash my custom Rom again helped..hope you get sorted!

So I tried to flash PAC with TWRP 2.6.0 (it worked before), but the problem is still there.
I'm really confused. I really don't know what I can do or try to fix this mess... Is there some USSD code or something to find out if my device is missing some ID codes or if the modem is messed up or something?
Edit:
Update: For some reason I now can receive calls/SMS but only when I'm on GPRS speed. Outgoing and ingoing calls are no problem then. When my device is on HSPA or HSPA+ speed however, the old problem of not being able to call or be called is back. On one hand it's good that I'm somehow able to make calls again on the other hand it gets stranger and stranger. I know that it's a bug on PAC man ROMs that you can't change the mobile data speed options (LTE/HSPA/GPRS etc.), but I think that this could be the problem (or at least a part of it)...

Actually I can change the data in my phone between 3G and 2G (don't have LTE support here in my country)
Have you checked your APN? Think that might be a problem.
Also please post the steps you take before flashing PAC (ROM, kernel, recovery, etc)

Within Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network Mode? On PAC? It always crashes when I try to change something there. In the PAC bug post this seems to be a known bug, my mode is also set to GSM/WCDMA/LTE. But whenever I enter the settings to change this, only 'LTE' is chosen as option. I don't have LTE on my plan and I read somewhere else that Vodafone has major problems with it's LTE network here in Germany and that it may be better for customers without it to turn it off.
About APN: there is definitely something strange. I can enter the settings and I see three different APNs that were not created by me (they must be the standard carrier ones): they are called Vodafone DE (for Germany), 1und1 (pretty strange because the settings are the very same on this one, only the name is different) and Vodafone DE-MMS.
The strange thing now is that I can't change any value of the Vodafone DE APN... When I go into its settings, everything ia greyed out. This was the same on the stock ROM...
Now when I create a new APN with the correct provider settings (found via Google on the VF homepage), the phone still won't work. When I put the device aside for a few minutes, the Vodafone Deutschland DE APN is the selected APN again although I never went back to it...
Is there some option to take a deeper look into the modem stats to see what's the problem?
Install stock ROM

I tried that already, but it didn't help. Same problem...
I factory resetted the phone, wiped cache and dalvik cache and then flashed my Vodafone branded stock ROM via Odin that I had on my device when I got it. Didn't help for some reason... But: should I also try to go back to stock ROM via KIES? I haven't tried this method until now...
Edit: About my flashing method: I went from the stock ROM to rooted (via CF Auto root with Odin). For PAC I then flashed TWRP 2.6.0 and then in recovery factory resetted the phone, wiped cache and dalvik and then installed PAC. After that I installed GApps. I used this method before and it worked without any problems...
Edit2: I found this thread, it appears to be the same/a similar problem with the S3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805709&page=6
Now is there something similar for the S4? I think I tried calling ##72786# on stock ROM and it didn't work...

Delete the unused APNs.
Do you have mobile data?
Also I asume that you're running the latest vertigo's build, because with me GSM/WCDMA/LTE is always selected.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
Sometimes I have mobile data, but only for very limited time; for the majority of time, I don't have mobile data and can not make calls.
I also tried to delete the unused APNs, but still no change =/
I tried to use a different Micro SIM in this device, but the same problem appears. No data, no phone although I have grey reception balks.
any update on this one?!

software unlock

I did the software unlock via the dial code & UMTS menu, I can make phone calls with a different carrier sim, but I cannot get the data to connect. I have been searching xda and google for months trying to get this to work. I have a Canadian Bell mobilty i337m. Stock rom (mdj) and its rooted. I have tried factory reset several times but it doesnt fix it. I also tried flashing back to stock with odin. Does anyone have any other ideas?
When I try a telus (or other provider) sim, it give me voice service only and in the about > status menu the mobile network state either says disconnected or connecting. I have the data toggle on also.
Those unlocks don't work that well with the Canadian variants. They're designed for the i337 not the i337m.
Have you made sure the apn is set up right for the carrier?
Maybe this will help
Code:
http://apn-settings.com/canada/apn-settings-bell-mobility/
I will say the reason that cause the problem is that this is an ATT phone with At stock ROM. So it doesn't have the APN setting for other carries. You should set that by yourself.

Not true. I successfully unlocked my first S4 I337M on Bell following this tutorial. I sold that one because I was able to make a profit once I unlocked and flashed the AWS mod to make it compatible with WIND and Mobilicity.

Try reflashing the original 4.2.2 firmware from here and then immediately follow this tutorial before rooting (do not install any system updates!). Then you can root, install custom recovery, reset the flash count, etc.

oddly enough, when I put a telus sim in it and waited for a while (in hopes it would eventually connect to data) and the apn settings for telus were in the phone. I know I didnt put them there because the apn settings for koodo were also present along with a third apn that I cant remember.
For future reference, try not to double post. Just edit your current post.

It's actually not an odd thing to happen. Once an activated SIM is inserted and the phone is unlocked, the phone searches for the best APN settings from all compatible carrier bundles. Some phones do this more accurately than others. However, it may not do this well enough if a custom ROM is installed. I know this to be true because this happened with my older Galaxy S3 when I tried selling it to someone (it was a T-Mobile unlocked running CM 10.0 at the time). However, setting the APN manually (assuming all settings are correct and that nothing else is wrong with the phone) should resolve your issues.
If you're still having problems, I suggest doing these things:
1. Try going into your network operators and let the phone search for carriers nearby. Once the list shows up, tap on Telus and wait until that screen closes on its own.
2. If you can't get data going yet, try disabling it, re-enabling, and reboot.
3. If this still doesn't work, try going into the network mode screen and select GSM/LTE and reboot.
4. If it's still derping on you, then it must either be your SIM not connecting to Telus's data network, or your account has a data block. That's all I can really think of.
Good luck.

Ok, reflashed stock 4.2.2 (the first one) and manually entered TELUS apn settings from the telus website, got data to connect finally. As a note, there was a typo in the apn settings that it auto aquired for telus. Going to try a eastlink sim tomorrow and hopefully AWS is working.
Edit: all seems to work. thanks everyone!!

[Q] No mobile data after flashing Wicked v.9.1 to stock slot

Check to see if you still have the same modem as you started with.... I flashed a rom, I had connection but would cut out now and again... ended up relashing the same modem that was on the phone before... (modem did not change) now I have data and solid connection for phone calls.

You sure mobile data is checked on in the settings? And did you flash the MK2 modules?
Google the kind of phone you have and ATT is your provider I take it? Include which version of android also so something like..... i337 modem att android 4.3 of course swtich the proper name and provider that you have. You don't want to be flashing the wrong modem you could end up with a paper weight....

[Q] New Radio to upgrade i377m from stock 4.2.2 MG1 to Kitkat

I have a Canadian Galaxy S4 i377m from Telus.
It's still running stock 4.2.2 MG1.
I want to upgrade to the KANGAKAT 4.4.2 ROM. I've been able to use TWRP to flash it and it seems to work correctly except that the Cell connection drops after the first call and then it says I have no service. For now, I restored my stock ROM and data from nandroid backup.
I have this exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49943845&postcount=1023
After lots of reading and research (it's my first time trying to flash a custom ROM), I think I need to update the radio.
Is MK6 the correct radio firmware to flash on my phone? Should I flash the radio before or after installing the new 4.4.2 ROM?
I know the radio firmwares are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2324667
What the hell is nonhlos.bin and do I need to pay attention to that?
I want a very stable GPE ROM. I won't be updating frequently and don't want to try many ROMS. Is kangakat the best choice?
Thanks for any and all help and advice.

For the modem, if your going to 4.4.2, you want to flash the NC1 modem. It has been listed in various threads on here. I just flashed the modem.bin file only, I have seen people get in trouble flashing the nonhlos file (loosing wifi and such). Just extract the modem.bin file and flash it through odin PC, make sure you take off the auto reboot as it takes longer to flash than odin allows before rebooting. Also when you flash, once odin says complete, boot back into download mode and repeat the flash, not sure this is necessary but it seems to help in some cases. as far as a GPE rom, check Danvh's thread, that one is build for Canadian phones, just make sure you don't flash anything that is just for I337 (US Version) you want to stick to roms that are specifically for i337m. There islikely going to be an update in th next month or so to 4.4.3 so it is up to you if you want to wait for that or flash again.....

Thanks for reply. Are these modem flashes reversible? I can always downgrade again, right?
I'll try this over the weekend.

I flashed the NC1 modem (twice) and installed Kangakat. Voice works fine but I have no data. I tried setting the telus Access point name and the Telus Mobile Network Operator. After searching networks, it finds Bell, Rogers and Telus. I select Telus and get a Network Registered notification but still no data.
I then flashed MK6 to try and again voice works fine but still no data.
In "About Phone" -> "Status" I always have
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
Edit: I made data work by creating a custom APN instead of relying on the preset APN:
These are the settings I used:
APN: sp.telus.com
No username/password
MMS APN: sp.telus.com
MMSC: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc
MMS Proxy: 74.49.0.18:80
I found these settings here: http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...Iphone-5-to-Galaxy-s4?p=15213963#post15213963
The preset APN in Kangakat for telus was
APN: isp.telus.com
but doesn't seem to work.
I tried this using modem MK6 and everything was working: voice and data.
I then flashed NC1 again and data was still working.
Finally I tried a speedtest using the LTE data connection.
5 MB/s down and 2MB/s up.

GT-I9505 3G not working after 4.4.2 update

Guys can you please help me? I got a strange problem. After updating to Android 4.4.2 KitKat(Official Samsung update) my phone can no longer connect under WCDMA only. All i can get is 2G and I know the coverage of the mobile operator isn't the problem. I tried even some custom ROM's but still the same. When i switch to WCDMA only the phone can't connect at all. Things i tried so far:
- Different official Samsung ROM's
- Custom ROM's
- Hard Reset many times
- Clean cache
- Rooting the phone
- Flashing a different modem
And as far as I know now i can't go back to older android because of this stupid bootloader lock... Do you guys got any idea? What more can i try to make it work? Thank you.

May be noobish reply, but check Access Points before you do anything, try re-adding them in the Mobile Network settings. If not, flash modem again.

Have already checked APNs, deleted them and reset and re-entered, factory reset and tried diff roms, etc etc etc. I've been screwing with this all day.
I tried flashing modem but that was fail, I cannot seem to find the correct version after lengthy search.
I have i9505 (brazil mfg), using Straight Talk in US, and all modems seem to be int'l versions.
Trying to flash back to stock currently. Any ideas on the correct modem?

MMS PROXY: 66.209.11.33

Just wanted to follow up, this is solved. Attempted about a half dozen roms and most of them do not like the i9505 and some critical feature would fail. Finally after a few Odin flashes back to stock, I installed snapshot jflte cm11 m9 rom and it works perfectly with old apn settings as posted above.
I hope someone else with an internation s4 i9505 who ends up with whatever combination of no sound, no wifi, no mobile data, or no mms reads this and it saves them 12 hours of screwing with their phone. Some ROMs just don't play nice with our phones, don't resort to more advanced methods, just flash CM11 and call it a day.
Even I have the same problem did wcdma work after flashing phoenix rom
