I've spent a pretty decent amount of time troubleshooting this myself. Probably wiped my phone and put the stock 4.3 on 20 times. If there is already a thread that solves this please point me in the right direction and I apologize for posting about the same issue. Anyway here is my problem.
I tried to put Paranoid Android on my Nexus 4. The specific version is this one here pa_mako-3.99-RC2-20130920. I booted the most updated 4.3 stock version from googles developers website. From what I read the stock 4.3 would have the most up to date radio. After the stock OS was installed I rooted my phone and installed Clock Work Recovery. Once that was done and was working properly I put pa_mako-3.99-RC2-20130920 as well as the most up to date gapps (pa_gapps-full-4.3-20131024-signed) into my phones memory and booted my phone into CWM recovery. I did a factory reset and wipe, installed the two zips and and then wiped the dalvik cache and continued to boot up my phone. When the phone boots everything seems to work properly except... No service.
Did I do anything wrong in my process? I have also tried to imput my carriers APN settings. What information do you need from me? Any ideas? Thanks guys.
Reflash the ROM. Do a system wipe first. Flash a radio if this doesnt work.

That's been done a blue million times. But I will go ahead and try again. I'll let you know the outcome. Do you have a link for a specific radio?
Update: Wiping the system and then reflashing the rom did nothing. Now updating the bootloader and radio from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020336.

Try redownloading the ROM...this is strange. Any success with the radio flashing?

Ok I'll redownload the rom. And no the flashing of the radio did nothing either. I even imput my carries apn settings again. I hit save after entering in the settings and the phone didn't even save the settings.
Are you on an old version of CWM? 4.3 brings SELinux and you may be seeing permissions issues that's preventing you from being able to access the baseband (check under settings)
After redownloading the PA rom and flashing it from the stock 4.3 I have a working up to date version of the PA 3.99 R2. Thanks for the help guys.
Dear all,
first of all, sorry if this question is repeated, but I couldn't find a good answer by searching.
I bought a i9505 Galaxy S4 that came with a version of Android that has been modified by the carrier. There's a lot of bloatware and everything, but worse, they haven't even released the Android 4.3.
Can I install a "default" firmware of a i9505 Galaxy S4, in order to solve this problem? Clean, carrier free?
If yes, can someone post a guide on how to do this? I'm completely new to this subject, have no experience at all.
Thank you very much in advance!
Anyone?
This problem is really annoying me...
Another try...
Is it possible to just flash android again or do I need to root my phone?
I'm new to Android.

You can directly flash a rom from your country free of branch (fob) or unbranched (ub), their updates are faster than carrier ones. You don't need to root the phone to do this.

Great, that already helps a lot. I'll find a way to do that. Thank you!

Well, searching in Sammobile I found out that my firmware is Brazil (VIVO) - ZVV. (Vivo is the carrier)
Can I just flash Brazil - ZTO (which is carrier free) with Samsung Kies?
Thank you!

You can flash that rom, but not with kies... kies will only update your installed rom, it is, zvv firmware. You must flash zto rom by Odin 3.09. It is easy, just search the forum.

Just flash it to your phone first, after flash it you can do what you want. That version will fix your problem 100%. Report it back please.
Flash via Odin V3.09

Bootloop is a "Soft Brick" and can be recovered using CWM or any CWM based recovery.
Hard Brick is a state where the Device is totally dead for the end user, It will not show any screen activites or respond to buttons or no led activities.
Your is a Soft Brick and few steps will recover your device if followed carefully:
- Use Aroma File Manager to backup your data to External SDCard. Backup "/data/app" to External SDCard. You can also try replacing "/system/app" and "/system/framework" with your ROM "/system" if you suspect that some app or mod has done changes in the /system.
- Do a Full Wipe of Cache/Dalvik and try to boot.
- If not booting then Do a Full Wipe of Cache/Dalvik and install "PhoeniX ROM" and reboot. Wait for 10-15 minutes.
- Wipe Cache/Dalvik and Flash Perseus Kernel and Reboot.
This should bring back you device.
If nothing works then Flash STOCK 4.3 from Odin 3.09 as instructed in forum.
Good Luck.

Ok, if you had before a stock 4.3 Rom, you will not be able to flash anymore a 4.2.2 stock rom. If that rom you are using doesn't work, try a different sammobile stock rom, I suggest the newest 4.3 Rom for your country or carrier, or any fob from a different country with same 3G frequency bands.
Use always Odin 3.07 or 3.09, never use 1.85 except for cfautoroot.
Please, report back your final solution.

You won't ever be able to flash second rom because it is 4.2 and you have 4.3 bootloader.
As last chance, I assume you are using Odin 3.09 and no a different version, try again to flash 4.3 stock rom twice at same time, I mean, first, uncheck reboot after flash option, first flash, check back reboot option, second flash, and unwire and see what happen.
If this doesn't fix it sorry, but it would sound as any PCB damage (hardware), and you should go to SAT.
Here in this point, I am so sorry, but our sub

Can't help you much with this. I have this phone for few days and haven't flashed any huawei before. Go thorugh the forum and read all guides and helps.
i wait a new suggestion for my problem. thanks a lot..and happy new year!
Hello, i have the very same problem....
I get this problem but fixes itself when I restart the phone. I Suggest you flash your ROM with the default from your country the update might have messed up something
