Please help!!! I can't get a mobile signal for the life of me. I get wifi and LTE, but no 2G or 3G??? I've factory resetted, flashed modems only, tried different roms. Everything. I'm starting to think it might be the hardware. If anyone has any knowledge, please share. As of now I'm back on NAE baseband since the NG2 upgrade started all this. Or maybe it was mobile odin. IDK it was one of those.
I would rather have lte than 2 or 3g. You could always change the settings for mobile networks to only pick up 3g and see if that works.

But I cannot make a call at all. There is no 3G period. Tried everything
Have you tried removing the sim card and powering the phone up without it?

Whenever I do this on my phone it puts it into cdma mode.
Will also help rule out what's wrong

Hi there!
I'm having a really bad problem at the moment on my s4 (i9505). Recently I upgraded from stock (MDE) to pre-rooted (MF8). Since then, my WiFi has stopped working, and it seems to be the only thing that has gone wrong. When I toggle WiFi on, it immediately toggles off (both in the quick settings, and through the settings panel). When I mean immediately, I mean within 1/10 of a second.
I flashed another ROM over it (OMEGA V7) and nothing changed.
I feel as though I've missed something vital, and would rather work on a fix for it rather than flash stock through Odin and start from scratch. Any help is very much appreciated.
Check settings in WiFi. There is an option for using cell or WiFi based on which one is faster, disable it.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I already had that off (selected off by default).
Also check if your wifi timer is on.

Ive had this issue before when my kernel and modem are mismatched but also when a weird setting is enabled... and I cant remember what it is.
Try a factory reset but do not restore your phone settings from google... only your contacts

So wifi will not turn on no mattrr what ?
And your not in airplane mode ?
This is beyond me then... I hope your hardware wasnt messed up.
Does your wifi still have a mac address ?

No idea what's wrong. I literally JUST flashed a ROM. I've been doing this for almost 3 years and never have I seen an issue like this.
Might take the phone back.

I can't really say why this happens but a lot of times with this phone it seems that the MAC address to the wifi is somehow lost and by removing the /data/.cid.info file you can somehow reset something that makes things work again. I assume it's somehow tight to different wifi network chip drivers in different kernels but I'm not sure. On some ROM's I have tried I have to do this on every boot...

Out of the blue I've lost my Wi-Fi capability on my S4.
I've restarted & turned off the phone to no avail. My phone shows up on my router's control panel as active as well as a couple of apps I have.
I've also forgot the connection & reentered all necessary info. Mobile connectivity is fine but as soon as I switch Wi-Fi back on, no tweets, FB notifications, etc.
Suggestions, ideas? TX

I don't want you to root either. It sounds like to me that it's a hardware issue with your phone.
Well, even though my router gave all indications that it was picking up the phone I tried a hunch. Rebooted the router & Wi-Fi is back!

As you said that you have flashed a custom ROM and now on stock rom,
Check whether you still have the IMEI #.
Also try insterting the Sim card on another device to check if Sim working, if working then try doing a factory reset.
Also once factory reset done as go in Setting-More Networks-Mobile Networks-Access points-Reset to default.
Try the above steps and let me know if problem still persists.
Dont forget to click the Thank button:good:
Have noticed about once a day at random times, my wifi and data signal will disappear when using the phone. I have to switch airplane mode on and back off to get my connections back. Not a major Issue, but slightly annoying.
Anyone else have this problem or know the cause?

The toggle is greyed out on mine too and cannot switch it back on. The only difference is that I loose wifi and network connection. Mine is o2 UK unbranded handset.
Update: my connections are still active when this happens.

I'm getting the same thing here, the data and wifi icons occasionally disappear and the wifi toggle goes dark (as if it's not connected), but I'm still connected and get data just fine.
Do you reckon this is a hardware or software fault?

I did install adblock (unrooted) for about 30 minutes and then removed it when I first got my phone. Not sure if the problem started before or after.

It didn't happen yesterday so will wait for next samsung update and see if that solves the problem. Unless it gets worse then I will factory reset.
update : shortly after I posted this it happened again so I tested the connection and I was still connected to wifi.

Remove VOLTE/Advanced calling from your account. Flash the RUU. Factory reset using the stock recovery. Activate advanced calling from the phone itself (not the online verizon portal). Reboot phone after 5 minutes. Test.

So, go to website. Remove advanced calling and anything volte related. Then do phone and let phone reactivate everything? Just want to be clear. I respect your advice and have used your stuff on my phone for awhile.

With stock software lost the video option on all. Was always grayed out anyway. And when rebooted the option to activate was grayed out. Did not get the verizon page to activate like on ice rom.

Did it all again. This time worked better. Got new activation pages never had before. About activating after 5 minutes. Did that. Says added new features. But 1x still on calls and no video options on calls.

So after using dottat ruu.exe for . 22 and seems like after it settled I have volte working again along with wifi calling. Never seen a toast before that I was on wifi calling. Also HD calling working. No notifications for HD buy can hear the difference when I call people who have edge 7 and iPhone 6. Still running complete stock setup and hoping will stay when I flash Venom. Doing a backup for sure first. Still no video calling.

Good deal.. I'm strongly believing that the VZW/HTC volte issues have finally been put to rest. This was a problem on the m9 as well and is no longer.

I've tried this 5 times with a couple different ruu's with no luck. I first noticed this happening after I tried flashing leedroid nougat Rom and got no service on it so I restored my backup and got service but no data on calls, just 1x. When I go to the vpn, in the list of bearers, mine just shows ehrpd and LTE. My gf pixel shows gprs, ehrpd, hsupa, hspap, hspa, hsdpa, LTE, umts, and edge. The rest of the vpn settings are the same. I have also noticed when I go into settings, about, network that it sometimes shows "3107" in the operator section. Any other ideas?
