[Q] Galaxy S4 can't send/receive calls and SMSs

Hello guys!
In the past, I faced some similar problems with my Galaxy S3 because I was a mad ROMs tester, so one time the baseband messed up with me and I lost all the network abilities, but I managed to deal with that..
Today it's my dad's issue, he likes to keep everything on stock, but rooted...
So he updated his I9505 to the latest Lollipop version, then he rooted it..
Today he told me that he can't make or receive ANY calls or SMSs, but the mobile data is still working as it should.
He can't remember if the problem started before or after updating.. So I tried the following:
• Did a factory reset.
• flashed a clean 4 files firmware through ODIN.
• took the SIM away and tested it on another devices, it works fine.
• Downgraded to KitKat and flashed the proper modem and bootloader.
Nothing helped [emoji17][emoji17]
So I wish that you guys, can do your best to help me..
P.S. The IMEI serial number is fine ( no null/null or imilar errors ).

You should flash this firmware via ODIN.

It's so silly to download with 15 kb\s from SamMobile. By the way, I tried that and got this error!
Can I get this firmware somewhere else?

Can I just use this link to flash the modem and the boot loader only without the whole firmware?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50965837

The other place to get the full ROM is samsung-updates.com. However, for your issue, flashing just the modem and bootloader should be sufficient.

I'm sorry that you've had no luck. Unfortunately, if you've tried everything software related and haven't been able to solve this, then we have to start thinking of hardware problems as a possibility.

I'm totally shocked now!! I tried a SIM card from another carrier ( which I never tested before ) and it works perfectly!! So now I'll try the main SIM card, maybe I can fet some luck..
So that means no hardware issues?

It could simply be SIM card issues, yes. Definitely not hardware if it works with another SIM.

S6 Edge+ Roms working on Note 5

I wanted to flash something new after trying all MM roms on my note 5 920G. A small thought ateuck to my mind to flash s6E+ rom to see what would happen. I downloaded the rom took all my backups and i was ready to flash. I was also scared knowing that maximum it would just aoft brick the device that is that is what max could happen to my lovely note 5.
Made sure modem and boot filea are not inside the rom zip, Pushed the rom performed nand backup, flashed the rom and flashed the sky high kernel for note 5. Now it was time to revoot the device. My heart was pumping to see what would happen kept my fingers crosses and wanted the device to bootup.
To my surprise first boot was bootloop and it aut rebooted and i waited paite tly for 10mins. After that i saw welcome screen and j was ery happy that s6e+ roms are working fine.
Below are few screenshots.

My is an international Device so I've no issues on running the ROM with any carrier including my 4G is working fine.

I firstly needed to use a N920C kernel for the soft keys to function correctly, for the Spen features you required the Air command and Spen Apks and libs. The firmware of the two devices are almost identical so the features activate automatically after that. However I haven't tried it on Marshmallow.

You can root by installing TWRP using ODIN.

Updated my phone (which is not on Sprint Network as I live outside US) and must say, I'm quite impressed. There are no noticible UI changes but the system feels more snappier than before. I guess the Doze settings have been worked too because of which battery life has improved a tad bit.

Anyone know what Sprint meant by "Resolution to lock screen production issue"?

How can i root if i have this current version can anyone help me?

Flash TWRP with ODIN and then flash SuperSU zip through that recovery.

Do you guys capture the download link?

Does anyone have a link to download it. I would prefer to not have to put my phone back to full stock to get to then reroot and set my phone back up.

Used to get lock ups/crashes every day on MM until this update. Haven't had a crash since PG1 flashed. Maybe that's what
"Resolution to lock screen production issue"
meant.

Hot-spot mods of previous builds will not work. If you want, you can use pdanet or FoxiFi for it (no need of a rooted phone).
For Xposed, you can flash the zip available on XDA but you will require root for it.

PG1 source code isnt out, so developers will be behind still.

Well you gave me hope and i found some site called devlab that had a tutorial with comments. In the comments i seen mention of an 85.1 alt version that a few were able to install. Short story : I got it installed and im happy on pe2 using the alt version

86 updated version works best. And is newest.

You can skip updates with Odin. PG1 has been the best MM update to date for me.

Android Pay no Longer Working with Systemless Root http://www.xda-developers.com/android-pay-no-longer-working-with-systemless-root/

It's impossible.

Funniest thing is. It works for me. I'm using the Dual Sim Variant though.

Thank you for the replies , I have always had root, but since android pay has come out I have not rooted. I guess I'm gonna have to weigh up what I really need. Thank you again

I did exactly the same, and Android Pay works with Root here too. I've even added new cards without any issue.

Small world.. lol
U don't have you screen set to compact mode by any chance? As I believe u can't add cards in that mode.

Do you mean "condensed" display scaling? I'm in that mode, and adding a card was fine.

Been using Android Pay with custom rom and root since I got my S7E and never had a problem

I normally root my phone as soon as I get it, but I have not rooted this one yet because everyone was saying it didn't work with root. Well I know how I'm gonna spend my day off now, cheers again guys

Works for me, but there's a twist:
No more chainfire SuperSu, you must use a different root method: phh's Superuser (more info here) and, if you use Xposed, a systemless Xposed installation.
To use Android Pay, your root access is temporarly disabled (5 minutes by default), and re-enable itself automatically.

Rooted here, with condensed display, android pay is working fine

I've recently got the G930FD, updated to the latest Nougat, unlocked the btl, flashed twrp, rooted (SuperSU), and, to my surprise, Android pay... works!!!
My only explanation to this, is maybe, just maybe, an S7 got a hardware trust zone with Google making an exception in this case. I'd be glad if this is, indeed, the case.
Notes:
* Android pay didn't work on my previous rooted phone (LG G4, H815).
* I did absolutely nothing special whatsoever.
* System partition is close to, but noy 100% stock.
* Bootloader unlocked.
* Custom recovery present.
* Evrything above trips SafetyNet (tested).

Works for me too on my S7 Edge. Using 6.0.1 with systemless root/Magisk, although I'm pretty sure I added my first card to AP before I rooted. However since then, I have added/deleted other cards from AP without a problem.

AT&T Nougat ROM Carrier aggregation

On my S7 edge,i have flashed between all the different roms but since my HD Voice,Wi-Fi Calling, and VoLTE (All very important features for me) don't work, I reverted to my stock rom. the carrier aggregation says "CA-not configured 00" and was getting 50% worse speeds than my two year old iPad Air 2. I have ran it on many different cell towers which I know have the Carrier aggregation enabled but it sill wouldn't connect.

It may have gotten disabled somehow. CA can be enabled/disabled in the Service Menus

It seems that the code to get there has been disabled in 7.0
AT&T variant had a code on MM that you type into the dialer to being up one of the Service Menus. The code for the Verizon variant is *#27663368378# and can be accessed after root & modification to one of the carrier files for Hidden Menus.
I believe the code was *#197328640# but like I said they appear to be dead now.
Here are some screens that I took of my phone.

How do you change the files to accept the codes? If i flashed my phone to the verizon version and do this,would i lose the carrier aggregation once i flash back to att. my goal is to return the phone back to what it was prior to all the rom flashing because i plan to sell the phone on ebay so i can get the s8+

In addition to re-ODINing the phone,I also flashed the Verizon firmware and rooted it to get the carrier aggregarion menu and when I put it back to the AT&T firmware,i still got the CA-Not Config 0 0 status in the servicemenu.On the tmobile firmware the 3x carrier aggregations work (I don't have another phone to see if AT&T CA works and I'm still waiting for my T-Mobile SIM to see if it's not the phone itself that's wrong)
