Hi Guys
I have a Samsung Galaxy s i9000 slim bean Rom the base band & IMEI unknown I can't seem to use it to sms or call a guy from the Slimrom site told the Rom has no modem, so how do i add one ? I realy like the Rom its much faster than the one I had before I had Cyanogen mod Helly bean before and about 2 weeks ago it got into a boot loop so I got a friend of a friend to root it for me twice and still have this no network issue! I can't ask him to do it again. So I am trying to find a solution here. How do I add a modem ? The wifi works fine but Whats app tells me that tablets are not supported... but this is not a tablet its a Samsung Galaxy s i9000 , will adding a modem fix the network issue and make Whats app work? Or do I need a new Rom? Please keep in mind that I'm not a Android Developer in any sense of the word!!
Thanks Reigncpt!!

I followed the instructions on the slim bean site cleared cache partition and wiped dalvik cache and installed the latest version : Slim-I9000-4.2.1.stable.1.0-OFFICIAL .... but still the same issue IMEI and Baseband are unknown and I get no network. Did I do it wrong?
How do I do clean install? Do I need special software to do a clean install? If so where do I get it ?
I read somewhere on this forum that I need to flash the original rom to it to get it to find its IMEI and modem settings then flash the rom I want! Is the true? If so where do I get the original rom from as I got the phone with Cyanogen Helly bean on it so I don't even know what the original rom was??
Will really appreciate any help thanks!!!

Hi,
We can't be sure what the original ROM for your phone was, probably they we're referring to Eclair because that's the default. I have Galaxy S too so I wanted to help you. So here's what we will do, we might need to install an official stock ROM for it, we will not use froyo, instead this tutorial will let you install the latest GB for GT-i9000,GingerBread 3.6.
Here's the link (please hit thanks on the one who posted that if it will help you): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22555425
(You have to follow that tutorial up until this line only:
• When the phone reboots into the rom, wait for the setup wizard to appear and then just use the 3 key combo into the download mode again.
Close Odin and open it again> press PDA button and browse for CF-Root…file> Press START button and wait for the green pass notification in Odin.
**Lines after that, you don't need to do, since you will be flashing Slim rom. After that, your phone will reboot and you will be in the latest Gingerbread for Galaxy S, and a rooted one so you have a CWM)
After doing that, we will have to install Slim ROM. (a clean install, or fresh install, a clean install is this - wiping everything out, as in fresh install)
Here's what you need to do (straight from Slim Rom's website)
From another JB or ICS Rom to SlimBean
Download device_x.x.zip, slim_gapps.zip.
Enter CWM, wipe data, format system ( in mounts and storage)
Flash Device_x.x.zip***, then MUST flash slim_gapps.zip (other files optional)
*** - If the flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash device before flashing common or other zip files.
(So that's what you need to do, just download the latest rom and the gapps for galaxy s i9000,
put it in the root of your internal sd card
Go to Clockwork mod (Turn off, then press DOWN, POWER, HOME simultaneously)
wipe data, format system ( in mounts and storage)
Install zip from sd card and you will have the latest Slim rom and hopefully you get your IMEI back)
Please reply if you have more questions or clarifications needed, you can also message me, i will reply as soon as i can.

Guys. I have used Slim bean firmware on 2 i9000 with no issues but my third had imei unknown. I tried all options. Basically it would be there from 2.2 to 2.3 but once rooted and CWM added, and I installed Slim I would loose imei. Tried imei backups- no good. Fix was easy. Install Hellybean instead. Just worked. I suspect there is an issue in slim unfortunately...
This is a known issue with i9000 losing its IMEI... It was always recommended to have an EFS backup if it arose...
i've tried copying efs from backup using shady file root free but i still can't get my network back on infuse 4g

Full wipe means "wipe data/factory reset" in CWM recovery.
This is a Cyangenomod rom for 10.5 Galaxy TAB S SM-T805 LTE.
Ive built this from nvertigo67 tree for SM-T800 so he deserves all the credit.
25/03/15 Updated
Switched to nvertigo67 current-12.0 kernel
Fixed Kodi/XBMC touch issue
Changed from google to samsung MTP driver.
21/03/15 Update, fixed Phone call audio only coming through left speaker
20/03/15 Update, fixed Dialer crash.
19/03/15 Updated, fixed a few issues.
Power off charging is now working
Reboot recovery is working, I did have to edit the java code to make this work, seems a recent change in CM caused this, possibly a bug in cm?
Wifi hotspot fixed.
Added f2fs support to kernel, recovery also updated, have not fully tested changing filesystem to f2fs. Edit. Seems like it will require a special built rom and recovery to work, I will look at this when I start running out of bugs to fix
Many other minor fixes.
Not Working:
In call audio only coming through left speaker
Dialer app chashing on making or receiving a call
Power off charging, boots into recovery.
Advanced reboot menu, wont reboot into recovery, though adb reboot recovery works. Not sure whats going on here.
Modem/Radio, wanted to get the rom working first and will now continue to get the radio up.
Camera, This could be a bug in CM from what I have googled. edit There is a fix, link down beow.
I find this tablet is so much better with this ROM , like many I hate Samsung's TouchWiz. Everything is so much smoother and responsive now.
To Install:
Flash TWRP Recovery First with odin, Follow this Cf-Autoroot guide and substitute CF-Auto-Root.tar with my recovery TWRP_SM-T805.tar downloaded from my google drive.
Once recovery is installed transfer the CM11 rom zip to your internal sdcard, also grab GAPPS http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps and have that on your SD card also,
Optional grab supersu also.
Boot into recovery by powering off and holding down home, volume up and power till recovery starts.
Once in TWRP Recovery pick Install, choose the rom and gapps to install at the same time. Flash
After install finished we need to do a wipe, so go back to the main screen and choose wipe.
Reboot, Good luck.
I don't have a lot of time to answer questions, I will do my best to check back regularly.
Here is my github, It is upto date with my builds now. https://github.com/Andrewt12 )

For camera take a look at the last 4 commits (the reverts) from here: https://github.com/nvertigo/android_packages_apps_Camera2/commits/cm-11.0
I'm so involved in cm12 developing that I don't know if you can just use my repo, or if you have to rebase/reaply, but that is what breaks camerawraper on our device. The opting out like on picasso don't work for chagallwifi, so I think chagalllte suffers from the same issue. Hope this helps.

@nvertigo67, Thanks, that should help me get the Camera issue sorted. Good work btw, this rom is very stable.
@all, I have the modem working now. Calls and data are working. In the next few days I will post an updated rom and device files on github. I will also post clearer install instructions
@LoVeRice, Unsure about the t705, It could be mostly the same but may have small differences, I will download a stock rom when I get a chance and have a look.

Congrats. Getting voice and data working is a great job! For klimtlte: chagallwifi and klimtwifi differ subtile, but they DIFFER (i.e. sound, capacitive keys). If you really want to try klimtlte too, you should have a look at @eousphoros gits.
.... very good. Waiting to put new version on my T-805..
Thanks a lot!

You come from a Wifi-only rom, s.a CM-12?
Your tablet is defined as a wifi. You can edit the package script in the zip to remove the control

Hi meexx, You will need to use my twrp, different partition size than chagallwifi, thats also why it throws an error, as you installed chagallwifi twrp and it is looking for the wifi rom.
Just hold off for now though, my latest has many fixes to what I posted. I will hopefully upload later today, got to finish my chores first otherwise I will be in trouble with the wife for spending too much time on the computer.
Ok OK........ Greeting your wife we waiting for you. Can you make a Link to your twrp version? When this my problem is then i flash your twrp with odin and all is good, I hope so. Have a nice weekend.......... and Thanks for your work

Flash magisk via TWRP.
Hi.
I think my problem is unusual.
I try to install TWRP and/or root my device.
I red a few instructions in german and english.
And still nothing.
Details.
1. I have the compilation: from 2016.08.10.
2. Updater says I have new soft. I can download it 100 times. It says "downloading", then "installing" and "rebooting" but in the end nothing changes: still the same rom, still I can download and install this new soft (from 2017.1.12, 927,13 MB).
3. I can open the recovery mode. This is impossible for this device. Power+UP, Power+DOWN = doesn't matter. I see something like bootloop, but after 10-20 seconds the system is rebooting normally. No recovery.
3A. I didn't find an extra settings in "Options" which give more possibilities during turning off (for example: "restart in recovery").
As You see I can't make the backup (nesessary for me) that is why I didn't try "factory reset".
4. Instructions from Internet didn't work:
a) "MT65xx USB VCOM DRIVERS" installs some drivers but I don't have "Ports (COM&LPT) for Windows 10,
b) "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1640_Win": no scatter file, don't know how to make it, the file from Internet didn't help,
c) "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1640_Win": I can't tick "recovery" and any other option,
d) "Mtk_Droid_Tool_v2.5.3": it doesn't show any informations about the device.
As You see I can nothing with my P9000.
Do You have any ideas?
I don't want to be rude but I am starting to get a little annoyed with same questions repeating over and over on all threads so i decided to post some answers here where they could be easily accessed.
1. Q:""Can i flash this Marshmallow/Lollipop/Nougat rom over my stock KitKat?"
A:The answer in most cases is that you cant (except in ED300 CM12.1 Rom but its still preferred that you flash stock Lollipop firmware separately).For those who don't want to waste their time flashing Stock rom there is an alternative flash-able zip could be found here

- http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/firmware-base-switcher-a6000-plus-t3411914 - for A6000 Plus.
2.Q:"Where can i find TWRP recovery for my firmware?"
A:Here you go
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/twrp-development-wt86518-t3498524 - Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat recovery developed by TingyiChen
- https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2xkkOmw_M2NNXlVYnFYZnRIZHc?usp=sharing - made by SevenMaxs
TWRP 2.8.6.1 Is KitKat only compatible recovery
TWRP 2.8.7.7 Is Lollipop only compatible recovery
TWRP 3.0.2.0 Is Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat compatible recovery
*I couldn't find official links so i uploaded files to my google drive if any developer has a problem with this he can DM me and i will update the links *
3.Q:"Does this rom support VoLTE?"
A:So long there isnt a rom that supports VoLTE (As far as i know).There is some lib or source code problem with VoLTE (idk i am not a developer).There is a thread about this topic here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/help/lenovo-a6000-plus-volte-support-t3418004 -
4.Q:"Does this rom/kernel support OTG?"
A:No there is not.OTG support is a kernel feature that isnt available for our device.Maybe devharsh1998 is working on this maybe he isnt who knows be patient.
5.Q"Which rom is the best?"
A:Answer for this question is subjective you can always easily try couple of them.I like mshoaib7 ports i am currently on Nexus Experience ROM but i plan on switching to nougat soon.
6.Q"ED300 links aren't working?"
A:ED300 isn't developing for our device anymore and his thread links are not working but you can try some of the files that are on his androidfilehost folder
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=96089
This isn't tested by me and since the development stopped they are not recommended since bugs can't be fixed anymore.
7.Q"My phone is bricked heeeellllppppp?!?!"
A:If you are stuck on a splash screen/bootlogo
Can you enter recovery by restarting your phone and holding vol+ and vol-.If answer is yes just reflash the rom or try different one.If you cant enter recovery mode but can enter fastboot mod by holding vol - when restarting the device then follow this quide :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/how-to-bring-phone-to-life-fastboot-t3561070
If your phone is showing only black screen or isnt booting at all you can try QFIL unbricking method
Disclaimer:
Nothing of this is my work all credits go to the developers i am just trying to make it easier for the developers and to try and answer noobier questions that are flooding the development threads.If you think some answers need further explanations or you have some more questions feel free to PM me.Enjoy roms and happy flashing

A: Go to this thread,https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/lenovo-a6010-plus-stock-rom-t3407963
find ROM for your device download it.Unpack zip transfer system.zip and yourregion.zip (yourregion.zip is optional and if you live in india its probably india.zip) and flash it in TWRP recovery.Go to wipe, swipe to factory reset then go to install and select system.zip ,swipe to install it then select yourregion.zip and swipe again,reboot.If you are having problems with TWRP flash stock recovery via fastboot or flashify etc..

Does this version include GApps or you need to flash them later?
I have CN V.216 and it works fine except that you don't know when downloads in Google Play will occur. It can take 2min or 2weeks

- Battery drains too fast (i have to put all the day the energy safe mode)
- Not works the direct update option from mobile settings
- Not complete translation to English or Spanish
- Other software bugs (i can't modify/remove the icons in the louncher, problems with sharing directly from ES EXPLORER apk, not possible to sync Google Keep apk, not possible to check the screen shot directly from the miniature...)
My device is:
Model=NX589J
VTELCA UI=5.0

Safety Android patch=1 April 2017
Kernel=3.10.84-perf-g44dfce4-00212-g58cd867
Android=7.1.1
I am tired and I am decided to change the rom. I was reading and checking and I have doubts. Is it possible you confirm if all theses main points are correct in your device and which version you are using?
1. Problem with Play Store
2. Battery problem
3. Google Keep problem
4. Translation
Please, I would like to receive a simple summary for updating my rom with the software necessary.
Also i have found an official rom 3.04 but i have not idea about compatibility or if it is only in Chinese:

Install English version ! ( v 1.01 )
1- No problem with PlayStore
2- For me battery life is very good
3- Google Keep works normaly
4- Translation is not 100% in your language in any firmware !
Better launcher in this phone for me is a Nova Launcher , you can find a premium version in google.
Other bugs that you mentioned works.
The better way to install a stock rom ( v 1.01 ) is :
1- Put rom V 1.01 in storage and reboot to twp recovery.
2 - Install stock rom, wipe dalvin/cache, root and reboot.
3 - If in initial setup, you get freezed in wifi settings, come to twp recovery and wipe data, ( not format data ),wipe dalvin/cache, root again, and reboot.
4 - In you got freeze in initial setup settings when it ask you to put a name, after setup a date/time, you click next without put a name, and you must be good to finish setup and enjoy the phone.
5- If you can't open sms app after update, do this: the problem of sms app, you need to do a factory reset in accessibility settings, and root again, and after its all ok
Stock Firmware ( v 1.01 ) The file to download show v 1.0. , but is 1.01, not uploaded for me.

Thanks diogoasisti.
Your information is good but please understand that I am not an expert. I think a guide could be perfect.
On the other hand,when i press the updating option in the mobile settings it doesn't do anything. After pressing it, the screen is the same I don't enter in the updating configuration. Could it be becsuse i have changed the mobile lenguaje to Spanish?
Thanks
So let’s go.
To enter in recovery mode, go to settings, system update and at the right top side ,you will see 3 points, there you choose local update and you select the zip file of the stock firmware that you downloaded before, you need to put the file in memory phone
Put also the twrp zip file, to install a recovery to root the phone after
So, backup your data before this operations.
Do that and return to forum and show where you are

I have checked i can enterin the updating menu in the recovery system thanks.
Now i am going to do a backup of my data according to your comments.
Could you confirm with the v101 Google Play Store works correctly? Google keep syncs correctly? Can you change the WhatsApp background? An the most important thing: does the battery consumption is improved (1,day, 1,5day...)
Can i return to the same firmware status? Where can i download the originals firmware?
Thanks
