[Q] Alliance Rom with NE8 firmware MMS issues - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running the latest Alliance rom on my VZW S5. with NE8 firmware like it said to install. Ever since I installed it last week I noticed my MMS doesnt work. I can't send or receive. From what I've researched it's supposed to set automatically. I have mobile data as 3G and 4G work fine I just can't do pictures. SMS works fine. If I go into APN settings, everything is nulled out. I can't even add another one or reset to factory defaults. Most of the options say "Not Set" and since I am on a custom rom I doubt taking it to Verizon will do anything.... any chance someone else knows how to fix this? I tried using 8sms and that didn't work either. MMSC and the proxy settings need to be set as far as I can tell but I don't see any threads or anything on Google about this. Surely I can't be the only one with mms issues....
So is there a solution or am I SOL? I might just have to go back to stock but I love this rom

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?

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.

lost mms after flashing new rom

hi everyone... i recently flashed my phone to C-Rom version and after everything running fine i found out that i can not receive mms or send..btw my is flashed to PAGE PLUS CELLULAR...I can not even get into the diag mode or access the hidden menus after flashing this rom...has anyone had this problem or a solution to this if so please help.
Set the APNs for Page Plus.
in the past i used GO SMS to setup my apn, but i have used verizon messages without having to change the apn to page plus...so i tried manually inputting the apn thru GO SMS again...nothing happened and downloaded apn backup and restore from playstore but with the current android version 4+ it will not allow 3rd party apps message comes up. so at this point i am stuck.

[Q] CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly on G900W8(klte) - No cellular data?? (3G/46/LTE/...)

Hello community, I searched for hours before actually posting this thread.
My device: Canadian SM-G900W8(klte)
Last stock firmware: G900W8VLU1BOC1
Carrier: Rogers
Recovery: TWRP 2.8.7.0
Two days ago, I flashed the CyanogenMod 2015-07-14 nightly build on my phone using the official guides including gapps and everything seemed to work perfectly except one thing: the phone can't connect to the cellular data service but calling and texting does work, only internet dosen't it won't connect to the 3G/4G/LTE at all.
Before flashing I of course backed up everything with TWRP including my EFS/MODEM partitions so I switched back to my stock nandroid backup because I really needed my fully working phone the next day and it was late and data worked again.
Today I gave it another shot with the 2015-07-16 nightly and the same problem is there... I verified my APN settings and everything is correct. When I first got into the APN menu there were alot of them on the list including the ones I had on my stock ROM but none was selected so I ticked the one I had before but it still dosent work, I tried all of them on the list and no result. I even verified the APN(s) exact settings with my Carrier and everything was good yet the phone still won't connect to LTE, but calls and text do work again... Another thing I did was to restore the modem/efs partition with TWRP while running cyanogen just to be sure but it didint have any effect.
I really wanna use CM because I'm disgusted and tired of TouchWiz but I'm clueless on how to make the data work I tried everything I knew and read on forums.
I have the exact same issue...same phone, same network....
Did you resolve this?

Try to delete All Useless APN setting. It resolve my problem, and I have the almost the same configuration. ( Rogers, S5, Cyanogenmod 2015-08-01 )
The only one problem that i got, sometime LTE network lost signal for 10-30 seconds. But for what I read, it a common issue with this version ( 5.1.1 )
Good Luck !
Tried all that....
Finally went to an earlier build from April....working good now!

Thanks for the suggestion. That fixed it for me, as well. I actually deleted all the APN settings and then recreated Rogers LTE (ltemobile.apn).

HELP I broke my LTE

First off I'm using an unlocked S5 on straight talk's LTE network, have been for about 9 months with no problems. I've talked to support twice and they reactivated networks and all that good stuff, and when none of that worked sent me a new sim, which I have just activated and it still didn't fix my problem - so I'm finally bringing my issue here.
Last week I decided to update from phoenix rom oc4 (I think it was oc4) to optimal rom og5 (15-5). Anyway I was hasty in flashing and messed up, so just went back to stock ncg > root > full wipe > flash firmware, rom, kernel, firmware again just to be safe. The rom works fine except I seem to have lost my data connection. The 4G icon still shows, but it's not filled in - as you can see in the screenshots. To make it even more strange, when I check the network and sim card in apps like Advance Signal Status and Sim Manager, I still seem to be getting a connection to 4G but there is just no data flowing. The only error I can see is in phone info, when I run a ping test, I get PingIpAddr: Fail: IP addr not reachable which you can also see in the screenshots. It would appear this is my problem but I don't know where to go from here. I'm going to start flashing different versions of modems, starting with oc4 to see if that helps. Then I'll probably try different roms, but I've flashed other roms trying to fix this and even restored the backup to when it worked and it still didn't fix my problem. Did I wipe my IP address or something maybe? I am in CDMA/LTE mode, and the vzwinternet apn is selected.
For starters try to put the apn settings for your carrier and if not sure call them and ask them to email you the setting
I fixed it, went back to stock ncg instead of ni2 and that worked. Weird.

i-9505G, Correct APN but no data

Hello folks,
Galaxy S4, Play Edition, currently rooted and AOSP 7.1.2 installed.
I rarely used data on this phone and never since I installed the ROM. Lately, I needed the data often and I noticed that I do not get the data on this ROM. I confirmed with the carrier about the APN settings (Airvoice Wireless, att MVNO). The carrier reset data from their end. I tried manual APN entry but none worked.
Searching on the web led to various ideas, like reset network settings, airplane mode on/off etc etc. Tried everything, no change in the status quo. I am at loss on what is the problem. I tried the SIM in my wife's phone (HTC One X, Kitkat) and it worked without any issue.
I could not figure out PDA, CSS but the baseband version is I9505GUEUDNL3, in case if it needs an update.
I checked the thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/ref-galaxy-s4-i9505-modems-bootloaders-t3315987) over and over but didn't understand what/how this stuff is worked out.
I am really going nuts and I do not want to pony up for a new phone at this moment.
Any help is appreciated.
Flash back to a stock ROM and check for data connectivity. If everything works, it's a ROM issue rather than being a hardware issue.
The issue seems to be related to the ROM.
I restored to 5.0 (LRX21P.S012.141205) and the data works flawlessly.
