Imperium 12 on SGH-i337h / Fido Canada - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Just wondering if someone might be able to help. I've had on CM12.1 before but decided to give Imperium 12 a try on my Fido Canada / Samsung S4 (i337h rooted) Everything seemed pretty awesome,stable and good battery life. I'm usually on Wifi but then I tried using LTE data and realized mobile data does not work! I've looked under APN etc and on a matching S4 (with stock s4 samsung rom we also own) it looks identical, it just wont work on mine. What would be a good place to start? is there a logfile somewhere I could check? is there a special # to dial to check APN connection etc?

Is the phone running an up-to-date modem and bootloader?

In which area did the OP of OmegaRom say that the ROM was compatible with the N900W8?
In any case, think about this...
Kernel: Controls system modules like the Wifi ✓
Baseband: Controls the communications between the network and the device. ✖ (try this)
If even flashing the baseband, you don't have your LTE back, then you know what you gotta do.

Canadian ROM only shows 4G signal icon (with LTE speeds) - why ?

Hi all,
I recently bought a Galaxy S4 337M that was rooted and loaded with a custom ROM. I decided to go back to stock so went to sammobile.net and got the latest rogers firmware for my galaxy S4 (which they said was 4.3).
I loaded with ODIN, all went well, rebooted stock, but the max signal icon I can get now is 4G (even though I used speedtest and am getting close to LTE download speeds I think). Any idea why my LTE is gone ? Did I download the wrong ROM ?
I also noticed that none of the APN settings were there and no rogers apps were installed either. Makes me wonder if it was indeed a stock rogers rom after all.
Another strange thing is that it shows me a bell canada navigator update is available in the google play store, yet its not even on my phone. Regardless, even if its a Bell ROM by some chance, Bell Canada has LTE as well, so I am confused.
Btw I used the standard ltemobile APN settings that I always use on all my phones to get LTE (that always work)....
Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated, thanks so much !!!
My iPhone shows LTE using the same SIM...
PS. If I do need to get an original Rogers ROM, is sammmobile not the best place lol ? Any other places to go??

I believe that all I337M uses that same firmware but you need a CSC changer to make it change to your carrier as they don't release the specific ones with the carrier apps.
Search "Samsung CSC" in the play store and you should get one.
Thanks for the reply.
Seems I need root - which I deleted when doing a factory restore.
The strange thing is that it was supposed to be a rogers based firmware that I downloaded and flashed.
Maybe something went wrong in the flash.
Will try again.
And check out the CSC
i have a bell i337m and i have the same issue when flashing from a "custom rom to stock" and i have to flash the firmware using odin a second time and than i get my LTE icon enstead of the 4G icon, sounds weird and i can't explain why it takes 2 flashes to get it to show up proper, but it does.
i also have the problem with missing phone vendor apps, the second flash also makes these show up too.
also another thing i noted about my phone is if i don't root and install recovery to wipe, odin will dirty flash my roms, even though odin is supposed to wipe it isn't.
i've tested this to no ends, the results are 100% the same everytime.

After flashing the stock Rom, go back into stock recovery and wipe data and cache, then reboot that should fix it. To fix your csc issue there is a way to do it by dialling a number on your dialpad which includes your imei number then you choose a specific code. Search for it, google

Thanks so much for the replies and help.
I wiped the rom just for fun and rebooted and noticed that its actuality a BELL ROM (all stock BELL apps etc), but when I entered my rogers APN settings it still only showed H+, maybe due to network differences. It's frustrating because I specifically selected a Rogers S4 ROM from Sammobile.net. Any idea where I can get a stock rogers ROM for s4? Also do you think this may have affected my 4G/LTE issue ??
Either way, I will definitely flash the correct ROM twice, and then go back into stock recovery to to wipe data and cache.
Thanks again for all your help

[Q] I9505G - Stuck on edge network ?

Hi,
I have a problem with my Samsung S4 i9505. It was locked on SFR (france) network.
After unlocking my phone doens't connect to anything else than 2g (I think). I don't know exactly which network because next to my battery icon is displayed H+ but the download is very bad.. (maxim 407kbs).
I exchanged my sim card and nothing. I put my card to another phone and the speed is around 6-7 mb/s. ( which is normal for 3g networks).
Did anyone encountered something like this ?
L.E.:Sorry: i9505 not i9505g
I installed Liquid Smooth, and another AOSP rom and the mobile data speed is back to normal.
Any ideea why is this happening with original ROM?

If AOSP call *#*#4636#*#*
right now I am on GoldenEye, but still the problem persist.
If I reinstall AOSP what should the command above will do ?
I have to say that I am on 4.4.2 bootloader and I have knox flag set to 1. Is this a realy bad thing ? Could this make problems on mobile data ? To limit the data to 2g ?
I found the solution.. It was me...
For every stock ROM my APN settings were wrong. For AOSP roms, the APN was correct. I checked the APN settings on the AOSP rom but not on the stock rom.
I feel silly...
APN was set to Orange-WAP so that's were the speed of maximum 400kbps was from.

[Q] GiffGaff & S4 Google Edition - Final-R1.2 ROM

Hi Guys,
I just flashed my phone recently too S4 Google Edition - Final-R1.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474) and it's running great just my network keeps dropping here and then. I have put the correct APN settings so it can't be that.
I've been reading up on it could be to do with Modems? How can i find out the right one for my network? Giffgaff runs off the o2 network by the way! (UK Provider)
Previous Rom: Gummy Nightly (Giffgaff network worked fine)
Current Rom: S4 Google Edition (Issues with dropping network)
Or, does anyone know a rom that runs 4g giffgaff well? Really need a ROM with a working mobile data. (Or if someone can ask for me in that thread as i don't have enough posts to post in there yet)
Many thanks for any help.
Try flashing MK9/MKE modem twice via Odin, untick Auto Reboot.
Modem here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
May break your sound if you've upgraded to the new 4.4 bootloader though.

i9505 i337m canada mobile network connectivity

Hello All,
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i337m in canada using the rogers netowork. Ive been using customs roms shortly after i got this phone. Ive used samsung rom, original, GPE but eventually settled on Cyanogenmod. I use TWRP for the i9505 which allows me to use any rom (since CM12 doesnt have a build for the i337m, and other builds wont flash in a i337m TWRP).
Anyway ive been using CM 12.1 with a i9505 build for some time, and it works great. I had to update my modem to the NI2 build to get it to work, but its been working flawless ever since.
Now to my problem, buddy has an S4, same model, same carrier. He claims he needs a new phone and i beg to differ. I rooted, installed twrp (i9505)and cm12.1 (i9505). works great, however no network connectivity. I remember i need a new modem, try the same one that works with mine....nothing... try a different one.... nothing. calls and SMS, but not data of any speed.
Reverting to kitkat roms results in it working perfectly (multiple modems). both from his original Nandroid and CM 11. All lollipop roms seems to have the same issue, no mobile data. Wifi works fine. No issues with SIM card, switched them between the two phones and confirmed its HIS phone with the issue.
Im a little puzzled, can someone recommend a modem to load? should I try to use TWRP an CM12 for the ATT variant/ different variant? I want to help him but this is making me look amateur (even if its true).
Thanks ahead of time.
