Hi guys,
I got my Samsung Galaxy Y about a month ago, after looking at custom roms and such, without really reading into it (Like an absolute moron) I just went ahead and flashed, PDA, Phone And CSC and my network has stopped working.
The phone was locked to telstra, but I have rooted and unlocked it from the network (After losing network operator connection)
I've searched high and low for a fix to my problem in hope that I have not completely stuffed my phone.
Code:
Firmware versions:
PDA: S5360DXKL2
PHONE: S53650XXLA4
CSC: S5360OLBKL2
From the knowledge I gained over the last 2-3 days trying to fix this problem. This doesn't look correct at all. (And I hope someone here has this phone in Australia with the original rom, I believe that the original ROM for my phone was: DXLA1 or something along those lines.
Code:
About Phone:
Android Version: 4.1.1
Baseband: S5360XXLA4 (WHY?)
Build Name: NXT2ICSv2
IMEI and operator settings stayed as normal and didn't corrupt.
After wondering about this for days, I thought I'd get some help. Does anyone have any suggestion on how I should, if i can fix it?
Thanks.
EDIT:
I have S5830TDVKQ3_S5830TTELKQ3_S5830TDVKQ3_HOME.tar.md5,
Troubleshooting Instructions:
1.Restart your phone if you lost your signal(hold power button until your phone turns black and then release power button).
2.If the method 1 doesn't works, Try turning off your phone and remove for 5 minutes your SIM card and then blow the SIM card slot then after 5 minutes, Re-insert the SIM and turn on phone and see if this method works.
3.Try re-flashing your firmware using ODIN.
4.try checking your CSC , maybe you selected the wrong CSC.
5.Do a hard reset by dialing *2767*3855# in your dialer
if all the method that i've listed doesn't works , re-lock your phone to your carrier , unroot , factory reset and then bring your phone to your carrier's store where you got your network-locked galaxy y.

Hi Sean,
Thanks for your help. It was as easy as calling the telstra shop and asking what firmware was needed, getting it from sammobile and splitting it then reflashing the original firmware.
Turns out that the firmware Telstra is using for their 5360 is TAJKK3. (Austria) Does anyone know why this is?

I would suggest going to http://www.sammobile.com and flashing stock for your specific model GT-I9500 and not L720
Im installed SPH-L720 firmware. Still baseband unknown. Network is now wokring.
Please help

You have a GT-I9500, you need to flash THAT firmware, not for SPH-L720
I just acquired a Note 3 and would like to get unlocked and rooted so i can flash custom recovery. I have been pretty proficient in rooting/unlocking/flashing in the past. In searching for ways to get unlocked and rooted on this device has been a struggle and would like to ask if there is a tride and true way to do this ive missed.
Device details
Model Number: SM-N900V
Android Version: 5.0
BaseBand Version: N900VVRUEOB6
Kernel Version: 3.4.0 [email protected] #1
Build Number: LRX21 V.N900VVRUEOB6
I believe the bootloader to the Verizon note 3 is locked which means a custom recovery such as twrp cannot be flashed to the phone.
Edit: apparently, the bootloader can now be unlocked: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...l/official-note-3-verizon-bootloader-t3359370

Oh dear sorry to hear that you have been cheated. N910v is verizon note 4 and the 1 you have is spoofed n910f its very easy to spoof from build.prop in system and by z3x box.the download mode is correct model shows there of motherboard.
You cannot flash n910f firmware on n910v model it will fail in odin you have to download n910v firmware from www.sammobiles.com/firmwares
But i suggest is your current n910f firmware is running fine then dont flash n910v firmware cuz your phone will filled with verizon bloatware apps.and your phone will run very slow and laggy.
Or much better if you return this phone to guy and exchange with another one shows in download mode n910f or n910c international model

I understand
but I want an official firmware and I want the android 6, so I will try to flash with a N910V version and will see
Q: if I use a verizon firmware, do I have problem with cellular service (sim card)! if the firmware is from USA and I'm in Algeria?
No you will not going to have any cellular issues cuz verizon models are global gsm sim unlocked but you will be able to use 3g hspa+ data only the 4g lte will not work.and also you have to make apn settings manually to get data work.

I have a similar problem with my N910F which registers as N910V in recovery and download mode.
I tried playing around installing a new firmware from Dr Ketan Rom and although it installed fine, I can't get the phone to recognize my sim card (Ghana). It says 'no service' and/or 'no sim card.'
Now I tried flashing with N910V stock firmware and I get stuck in a bootloop.
I also realised that the IMEI of the phone is fake and an IMEI check says it is a Samsung windows 7 phone.
Any help?

Try flashing the 910V modem immediately after Dr Ketan's ROM, then reboot. If that fails do the same using the Verizon's firmware. And as it was mentioned above you will be limited to 3g + speeds.

Your phone is refurbished N910V verizon note 4 and fake N910F software And fake sticker at back side of battery.
If you want upgrade to 6.0.1 you have to download N910V firmware from sammobiles.com thats your orignal motherboard model.
but keep in mind you will lose 4G/hotspot/ and much more stuff if you upgrade.i suggest you return this spofffed note 4 and get another new device and if you cant return use at it is on 5.0.1 lollipop dont upgrade.

Today is your lucky day my friend, and here is a solution to your problem
I had the exact same issue and i was just about giving up after three days of hard continues tries and I thought about reselling my phone, but i decided to try just just the three last firmware i was downloading, and as soon as the first one downloaded I tried and voala, it flashed
but unfortunately XDA-developers have not allowed me to paste the like for you to just click and download it so just send me a DM on Instagram @Sammy.zent so i can give you the link.
