PLEASE HELP!! Samsung Galaxy S4 i337m Fido cannot make phone calls!

Hello, I hope you can help me with my problem.
I am using a Galaxy S4 i337m Canadian Version locked down to Fido. I was trying to install Google Play Edition 4.4.4 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537495. I installed TWRP, did a full wipe, and then flashed the GPE zip. It rebooted, most things seemed to be working, except it showed 'No service', and could not make any calls. It would start to call, then the screen would go black and it would lock up. I went back to a stock rom, but was still getting the same problem.
Now Data is working, and wifi, but cannot make calls. I have checked the APN and all checks out. I flashed the modem.bin file proper for my device via TWRP, I tried via Odin, but it fails in Odin.
I did 2 previous ones for family members, exact same phone, same carrier, with no problems. I don't know why this one is doing this. I have backed up and restored efs with EFS Professional, did not help. Please, please any suggestions.
Thank You.
Edit: I have also left the battery and sim out of the phone for 2 hours to no avail.
Edit: I have tried 5 different 4.4.2 stock roms, all have the same outcome. Cannot make calls, trying to fails and makes the phone lag out. Wifi and data are working, IM sort of works. It says it cannot send, but then 10 mins later the recipient gets it. Still cannot flash modem.bin files in Odin, install goes to the end, then says Fail all in red. I can install successfully the .zip via TWRP though, but it changes nothing. Have tried a few different Canadian modems.
Fixed: Installed stock firmware: I337MVLUFNE1_I337MOYAFNE2_I337MVLUFNE1_HOME.tar, and everything came up as normal. Wiped, flashed Google Play Edition 4.4.4, working flawlessly. Note: Firmware I337MVLUFNC1_I337MOYAFNC1_I337MVLUFNC1_HOME.tar didn't work, even though it was older and only a month apart from the FNE1....your phone likes what it likes I guess. The reason it took so long is it took between 6 to 36 hours to download from some of the 2012-2013 links given at 5-15kbps, I had to just wait and try other things while waiting for the 1.5GB Firmwares to download so I could try them.

Galaxy s7 edge exynos wont flash stock files HALP

Im using a Galaxy s7 edge exynos and I have been trying ALL day to return to stock firmware. (was aiming for 6.0, but when that didnt work I started trying 7.0 with slightly more success...) I was previously rooted via magisk using TWRP. I am not able to flash all 4 files at once via odin, (BL, AP, CP, CSC) I quickly get an error on both the device and odin (decive says binary 2 device something... Odin stops at either Param.bin or cm.bin depending on which CSC I use) the BL file seems to be the one that refuses to flash (from any of the 4 versions of odin i have and using different firmware versions that previously worked on the phone)
I am able to flash just the AP, CP, and CSC but when android loads up my mobile data doesnt work and many other things dont work correctly as well ...
I am so confused as to what I can even possibly do now. Im sitting here with a phone that wont correctly software update that I cant correctly root and has no mobile data. No full 4 files will correctly flash without odin error. TWRP gives me crap now too. I have wiped and formatted all the data many times hoping id missed something.
Send help

also
I try to manually update and it says "registering device" for a sec and then "Process failed" Like android 7.0 is running but not how it was before. I did update to newest update via the phone before i decided to try to revert to android 6.0 again because I was having issues connecting my pokemon go+

Hmmmm I still have problems with 5ghz and mobile data but i got magisk to install... luckily im not using this for phone purposes. this is the best i can do without help

"Maybe", i say maybe if you did thats why you cant go back to a < 8.0 version

I didn't try anything with oreo until like 10 hours of failing everything and reading everything I could find. It was unofficial and apps wouldn't install or update correctly. So actually what I got to semi work was 7.0 again. Build G935FXXU1DPLT. It doesn't show cell tower signal or work with 5ghz anymore but I got magisk installed and I can run apps off of wifi. (Same as before 8.0 but got magisk working this time)

I'd still like to try to get my 5ghz and cell signal (just in case something happens to my main phone) but I'm scared to soft brick my phone for the 1000th time in 2 days when I managed to get it semi working.

Last time something like that happend to me, is because i was flashing the wrong stock rom (same model but wrong original carrier) sometimes it does matter, sometimes not

I was worried I might have messed it up for good as well luckily I'm not completely stuck but I still dont understand why I couldnt just 100% flash my OS via odin like I always do. Although I got cocky and started without following instructions up on the computer this time. Just my luck

double check mod #it can change with different roms my s5 tmobile g900t originally now its grown into g935f S7 edge

S8 SM-G950F - Unkown cause, possibly bricked!

Hi guys,
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950F
I was given this phone by a friend of mine who attempted to install factory binary or something or rather.
He can not recall exactly what he attempted to do, however.... This is the condition it is in now..
I have no clue where to even begin with it.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Drew.

Blind bet is that freund is finished with this phone if doesn't go to download mode.

Your are need to download official firmware from Sammobile and flash it through odin .

First thing is to see if odin detects it in download mode.
Ive managed to get an almost bricked s8 at least alive and kicking a few days ago by reflashing *only* the AP file (stock 8.0 XSA from Sammobile) which at the very least got me around the locked bootloader issue. Its just killed the IMEI in it.
In a couple of days ill get another shot at restoring it to full funtionality but ive already replaced it anyway so its most likely only going to be used for DeX now.
Ive had no responses to my post so meh.

Which exact one did you use Funkymonkey..?
Thanks in advance.

Why can't I get odin to work after switching boards?

aHey fellas. So I had my att i545 s4 screen finally break, but I had a backup from cricket first sch r970c. I use straight talk and i just popped in my sim card from cricket into att and it worked. So a couple months later I had the great idea to combine the phones, with the cricket screen. I wanted to know if I could still use straight talk if I put the board from the broken att phone into the cricket s4. And It worked! Skip ahead I forgot the passcode when i upgraded to the s5. Now it is broken and i need my s4 :'( So after resetting, I get the "Firmware has encountered an error when upgrading, and Man, I can NOT get this to work again now. I have used odin for years, and it always fails. Version 3 and a few others version. I have tried everything. Sometimes I get the magisck secure check fail : boot / or recovery / sometimes it says someting about the binary. It will not let me boot into recovery , and i have tried several. tried converthing them from disk to tar. I did the pit files, and the separate pda and boot etc.. nothing will work. Can I please have some help on this one? You guys are the greatest bunch

I'm not sure, but I think the firmware is attached to the board or is specific to the board. This is probably why you're getting an error.

re-flashing stock OS onto Samsung Galaxy S8

Model: SM-G950F
Build Number: PPR1.180610.011.G850FXXUCDUD1
So I recently flashed /e/ OS (a fork of Lineage if anyone is unfamiliar). Unfortunately, /e/ was giving my phone problems, and also Verizon doesn't work with it, so I decided to flash Android 9 Pie back onto it. After hunting down the version of my phone's firmware (I live in the US but my phone is a refurbished phone from the UK), I downloaded it, plugged the BL, AP, CP, and HOME_CSC into PrinceComsy Odin. In TWRP I formatted the storage and all that, and then I flashed it using Odin. I got the green "Pass!" and the <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0) messages, but when I went to TWRP's reboot screen, it said there was no OS.
Are there settings I am missing or something? I have the G850FXXUCDUD1 firmware, I tried combinations of just flashing the AP and CSC, just AP, AP BL and CSC, so on and so forth, but no dice.
I've scoured the internet for help but nothing I have tried has solved the issue, so I figured I'd try here. Any help literally at all would be appreciated. If you need more information on the device or what I did in specific I would be happy to oblige. Thank you in advance!
EDIT: I've only gotten into software hacking relatively recently, and XDA-Developers even more so. As you can tell by the age of my account, this is the first time I've ever posted or anything haha. I tend to lurk on tech forums. Anyhoo that is all
EDIT 2: I downloaded Odin 3.13.3 and am trying that. Thus far it either fails or gets stuck on SetupConnection
EDIT 3: I downloaded a different zip from a different source for my phone. It succeeded in Odin, put the default recovery back on my phone, but now it is stuck on the samsung logo when trying to boot.
