[Q] No sound and occasional wifi

I wanted to upgrade my firmware for my i9505. It was rooted so I went back to a stock firmware I had used a month or so ago. Xxuamdm. It went perfectly fine and after rebooting I set about upgrading the software. The first upgrade was nearly 400mb. This downloaded and then installed OK. The next one was about 50mb and the same happened again. Then there was a third one - about 50mb again - except when my phone rebooted it got stuck on the loading screen. I tried to reboot several times but I couldn't get past the Samsung loading screen. Eventually I decided to reflash the stock I had before using Odin again but this time when I went to update the firmware I couldn't turn my WiFi on and also I noticed my sound had stopped working. This is for calls notifications music YouTube everything. I have then tried to update via kies and still I get the same problem. I went to Sammobile and downloaded the most up to date firmware for my device and still no sound or wifi. I then tried a Google ROM I had flashed previously and the WiFi was able to turn on again but still I have no sound. All I want is the latest stock firmware and if I can then root it afterwards that would be a bonus.
I have searched for answers but I can only find two threads - both of which have not offered a solution to my particular issue.
Thanks
Sorry if I have posted in the wrong area but does anyone have any ideas on this? I have managed to flash several different custom roms today - Foxhound, Google Edition, Echoe - each of these has working wifi however none of them have fixed the no sound issue. When I call my phone it I hear ringing from one end but my phone does not even show someone is calling for a good 30 seconds - and I cannot hear anything when I pick up. Once I hang up my phone still thinks I am on a call and wont disconnect for a good 30 seconds.
When I get home later I am going to try and flash the following stock firmwares using Odin:
I9505XXUDMH8_I9505OXXDMHA_BTU
I9505XXUBMGA_I9505OXXBMG3_BTU
Is this a good idea or am I wasting my time and need to do something else?
I desperately need someones help on this - my only other option is to get a new phone and I really cannot afford to do that.

[Q] No sound, device freezes when trying to play any sound. S4

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) and I'm having a couple problems with it.
First the phone freezes when its turned on it using Official software or a Touchwiz rom but doesn't happen with other Roms so I'm not very bothered about that.
Secondly there is no sound coming from the device, the only sound that comes off is the booting sound when using touchwiz, I've tryed with headphones and still nothing, and If I go to music and try to play a song the phone freezes until I press the home button, It also freezes when dialing or when any other sound should be coming of the device.
I've done a lot of factory resets and tried various roms but the problem stays.
And thirdly I have no signal on the device, when I put the sim card it just says no service, to be fair the sim card is a normal sim that has been cut to fit micro sim slot, becasue its what I use on my other phone and it works, I'll try with an actual micro sim when I have one available.
I don't know it these problems could be linked, that's why I'm putting them together. I have been searching online but I can't find anything similar.
Hope someone here can help me. Thanks a lot in advice!!
Can't get arorund this!
Ok, so I'm now looking at the sound problem now, seems like there is some people having this issue when the phone freezes when the phone should be playing sound.
I've looked at several threats here and for most people flashing I9505XXUDMH8_I9505OXXDMHA_I9505XXUDMH8_HOME.tar resolved the problem, so I tried it but still no sound.
So my I9505 is now on XXUDMH8, I rooted it again and installed a custom rom since the original firmware is not working very good.
Hope someone can help me!
Can anyone help?
OK so last night I tried flashing I9505XXUEMI8_I9505OXAEMI8_I9505XXUEMI8 and after I changed the kernel I got some sound when turning the volume up and down but the phone was running very slow.
Today I tried flashing Omega rom v15 flashing the right modem for the new bootloader before flashing the zip and no sound, I tried changing the kernel, still nothing.
So now I'm in build number XXUEMJ9 and baseband MJ5.
Please I've tried everything I can think of and I can't fix this, I need help! :crying:

[Q] I9505 sound and dial.apk problem!!

Hi! I have a problem with my Samsung I9505. I have Omega v19 based on firmware XXUEML6 Android 4.3 and I decided to flash a stock firmware I9505XXUEMKF_I9505COAEMJ8_COA. Unfortunately I had some issues and I don't know why. Fortunately I had philz_touch_5.18.9-i9505.tar cwm and was able to flash Omega v19 back. Everything its working fine but the dial and the sound. I don't have any sound, meaning I can't hear anything, no music no ringtones, nothing. And the second problem its the dial. So in the main screen I touch the phone widget everything its working fine but when I try to call someone my screen goes all black and starts to flicker and nothing happens, only after aprox 10 SECONDS appears the dialing screen but I cant hear the other person and neither can he. I don't know if its soft bricked or bricked but please help someone. I told you besides this two problems everything works well and even cwm and download mode. PLEASE HELP!!!

Fortunately I resolved my problem. It was a bootloader problem. I tried to flash the new Omega v.22 kitkat4.4.2 but had the old bootloader. After flashing the new One the problem was resolved. Thank you for your help

No sound at all on my galaxy s4

Hello,
All sounds on my galaxy s4 (gt-i9505) suddenly stopped. I dont hear any sound (buttons, mp3s,....).. The only sound I hear is sometimes within boot animation, when a booting reaches system, audio is gone. I tried many roms, many basebands, many experiments even stock roms, but nothing helped, but I noticed that audio works IN SAFE MODE!!!! So if there is BASEBAND UNKNOWN = AUDIO WORKS!!! But why? I tried many basebands/modems, but it wasn't helpful.
I flashed with Odin 3.10.6, CWM 6.0.4.4 (I cant get into another recovery after VolumeUP, so I MUST use this recovery.. I dont know why...), then I tried Omega ROM v40, v41; Phoenix ROM; GPE; some stock roms for my and other countries, but nothing helped.. Sound only in SAFE MODE, so I guess its not HW issue.
Last working configuration was on Omega ROM v40, but there have started troubles with sound..
PS: Yes, I tried a trick with headphones, that says you have to insert and pull out a jack many times and clear the hole .... didnt worked in my case.
I read many topics, but to most people helped returning to stock rom, however not in my case again...
Please help me..
thanks
I am also in the same boat as you. At the moment, I am using the S4 i9505 with Slim Rom and Open Gapps.
A while ago, I flashed TWRP and some how that fixed it for a while! But then the problem came back which is quite unfortunate. Since the phone is now mine (it was my sisters) I really want to fix this bad boy and use it (I use Xperia SP if you haven't noticed )
One question, you talked about SAFE MODE? Where can we find that? Remember, I have the same problem as you.
If I find a solution, I will PM and post here on what I did
Cheers!
