I have a samsung galaxy s4 i9500.
It is the 16gb version.
For some reason, whenever i install a custom rom, my mobile network and data doesnt work. It simply cant detect my sim. All works fine in the stock rom. I tried modems but none of them work. I heard xda has good helpers so please guys help me out ! ???

What about base bands etc? If I use one from the wrong zone can't I Brock my phone?

Nope. You have an i9505, as long as what ever your flashing is for the i9505 you're fine.
Country doesn't mean anything.

It's not advisable to flash branded ROM's on unbranded device but you may.
If you do, please report the results.
My fried bought a Galaxy S4 from AT&T when he was in US. While leaving the country he bought an unlock code from AT&T and unlocked the phone using the same in India. His phone was working fine initially. Then sudden signal loss started to occur and need to restart the phone to get the signal back. Tried using different Indian carriers and the same issue continued. Will I be able to solve this issue by flashing a custom rom into his phone? Do I need to take care of anything else, like the modem firmware or something. Attaching a screen shot of his phone details. Please help guys..

You could try reflashing the same MDL firmware first. If that doesn't work, then install TWRP and try the different flashable modems.

Thank you for the reply.. However we have already tried a factory reset.. Will it be a problem if I flash the modem firmware available in the Indian Galaxy S4?? The Indian version comes with an exynos octa processor instead of the Qualcomm one..

Doing a factory reset is different from reflashing the firmware. I don't think the other modems would work, but I'm not entirely sure. If they're recovery zips you could try, but if they're ODIN files it definitely won't work.

I have tried reflashing the phone with Odin. The device now has the latest Android 4.4.2 firmware from AT&T. It seemed to work fine after flashing. We got the network and were able to make calls as well. However after sometime the signal got cutoff itself. Tried flashing again, the same thing happens. Any other suggestions??

If you really want to have stock rom instead of gennxt rom, you can initialize your firmware using kies. I did it. Previous it was not possible but now yiu can do so as G7 is available through kies. This lrocess will also unroot your device.
ok thanks Bro… I am trying… .

Bliss-Pop
Cm12
all have been flashed well but i can't connect to my cellular data.
it cant connect to my sim network. So simply, I can't call, sms, or use mobile data.
I dont have the 4gLte version of S4.
Please help me out.
I'm Desperate.
Thanks
Flash the stock modem again. Since you have an I9500 you should be able to flash the modem through your recovery.
What do you mean by modem ?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk
Well, if you search the forums you'll find a thread with nothing but firmware packages for the cell radio and WiFi. That's the modem.
Thanks for the quick reply but please can you give me a link to a proper thread cause I could be mistaken. Thanks.

No, because I'm not directory assistance. Use the search engine. That's what it's there for.
I found a thread but i cant find out whats my firmware number
Sent from my GT-I9500 using Tapatalk
*#1234# in the dialer.
Does the firmware number change if you apply a custom rom ?
