[Q] [4.4.2] Sound Not Working

Hi All,
I've just updated my Note 3 (9005) to KitKat 4.4.2.
Since updating everything is working except the sound.
In fact whenever a sound might play the phone hangs for a second.
Im certain ive flashed everything correctly, tried multiple ROM's but nothing fixes it.
Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: After double checking, the modem/baseband file doesnt appear to have worked? currently showing MI6, what can i do to update it?
EDIT 2: After looking into it, this may be causing my issues....if anyone has the most up to date baseband for O2 UK then could they please send it?

Sammobile has the latest O2 firmware you can grab it from there.. Have you been able to flash back to 4.3 then?

OK, ive downloaded the latest O2 update.
This is in 1 single file, not the 4 that the KitKat update came in.
Can anyone tell me how to flash just the CP/Modem/Baseband from this one file??
EDIT: Flashed Modem.bin file through ODIN, flash completed successfully, but baseband still stuck at XXUBMI6, please can anyone tell me why this wont update?

It could be that O2 have locked your handset? Only thing I can think of, off the top of my head... you can try the leaked firmware (link in my signature, if needed again) - it has the 4 files. Flash only the Bootloader, then the ROM itself and see. Note of warning, playing with bootloaders is a risky game, and you can brick very easy if it goes wrong.
EDIT: Yes the official XEO is 1 file not 4 files like the leak

Thanks for the speedy reply.
I've tried updating to 4.4 and that's how the sound stopped working?
So my bootloader has already been updated. Don't know how to check though?
Do baseband/modem/cp need to be updated sequentially? e.g. MI6-->MI7 etc.
Thank again for all the help!

The baseband doesn't need updated sequentially no, you can go from MI to MK if you choose. It's probably O2's basband.
Can you dial *#1234# into your keypad and post the results ?

OK great, thats what i thought, maybe it is O2's baseband then....
Heres the results of *#1234#:

Yup it's O2's baseband, - remind me again, you have root?
From what I can see, O2 are up to MJ in terms of baseband - Sooo we need to find you an up to date baseband to flash (modem basically) - Now modems can be tricky if you get it wrong or get the wrong one. Have a look around and see if we can find you a more up to date one.
You could (not saying you should) unlock your phone and then use the NA2 baseband which I currently use (I am also on O2 but with an unlocked handset) - Not 100% on Sim unlocking so you'd have to have a nose around and see what's what.

Also need to Note, Sound issue may indeed be hardware based, but we will see soon enough.

I thought as much TBH.
I am rooted, i've downloded the latest O2 update and tried to flash the firmware but it didnt take, im still stuck at MI6.
I'll see what i can do re: unlocking the phone.
If you can find a more updated Baseband from O2 i would be eternally grateful!
Thanks,

v2 Bootloader Firmwares XAA and Carrier

Ok for those that took the XAA update ending in K2 and tried everything to load another firmware and failed here is help. The T-Mobile firmware is currently on BQK5 which is Bootloader v2 so you can download and apply it to your device using the latest official version of ODIN. WAIT!!! Don't get your panties in a bunch, READ!! Keep your sim card in your device so that you can get your carrier firmware and logos. This works on both AT&T and T-Mobile devices. The Devices are the same so don't let the TMB fool you. It works. You can use this if you want your carrier software back and play around with the Oreo Betas. I am not trying to step on nobody toes here but I will try to keep yall updated on the betas also.
Here are the links.
TMB & ATT Firmware BQK5 1 File (Use Odin 3.12.7)

can please answer and tell me what is my download firmware and if my actual is the last?
and if i avoid warranty if install the new downloaded?
thanks many

THIS is the newest version for italian unbranded g950f devices. I believe you already are on this firmware.
And no your warranty is not void if you simply flash an official firmware.

Based on this search:
yours must be in this link:
https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=19E8AE841DD011E89F15FA163EE8F90B
also in that link contains how to flash the firmware.
after you extract it, there will be couple of files, just be careful, put the HOME_CSC_OLE on Odin's CSC field.
do not put CSC_OLE there.

Last help please. In my actual rom already oreo, can i do the steps to flash without risk bootloop?
I thank you very much fir patience

Yes you can flash this without risking a bootloop, but thats exactly the firmware you already have? it would make no sense at all, as you're allready on the newest firmware.

I thank you... But i am afraid that something gone bad when i flashed update... WhatsApp often crash when i send images and others.... I hope to solve with new flash, wrong idea according to you? I already formatted resetted.... Please help me....
Very thanks

The whatsapp crash when trying to send photos is a known issue, try to google it (although it doesn't affect me)
the four options im aware of now are:
*live with the whatsapp crash, hope a future update will fix it
*try another firmware with another csc. As long as you don't need carrier spcific settings (like VoLTE,...) this shouldn't bother you. For instance with the BTU csc.
*go back to nougat and wait for a newer oreo update
*when you don't mind triggering knox 0x1 try a custom ROM like Renovate ICE, I never had problems with this ROM
*

Many thanks for patience, i hope another question from you... If i want install firmware oreo brand tim italy, ore go back to nougat... Can i di the same steps flashing from that website? After can i fkash going back and refkash without probkems if flash roms branded, unbranded or nougat and oreo? Please last help

Yes you can download whatever firmware you want from updato.com as long as it is for the model sm-g950f, it doesn't matter if its 8.0 TIM Italy/8.0 germany T-mobile/7.0 italy unbranded/...
As long as the model is right you can flash whatever you want/switch between Oreo and Nougat/switch between countrys and carriers/...

i thank you. you were very helpful for me. thanks from italy!!!!

No problem, greetings from austria

please, can help me yet? when i insert all 4 files in odin, the phone is seen from odin on com6 but the flash shown done in 1 second and the phone reboot. what wrong? thanks

You know I would have never advised anyone if I haven't tested myself. You can flash without any issues, but nougat will seem much laggy, don't know why. I just experienced it after downgrading that last nougat release for my region was much laggy then it was before I upgraded to oreo. But it may just be my imagination because oreo is more responsive and faster than nougat.
Nope S2 won't hurt. The thing is that the number after alphabet is same i.e 2. S2 is update from U2. 2 must be same. Also firmware is same for both F and FD models.

Yes always enable oem unlock, just in case you may need to flash custom recovery or root, just to be safe its good thing to always keep oem unlock enabled.

!!!!WARNING!!!!!! TOO LONG!!
Thank you for your help but this post did not work for me. After downgrading and trying many times to get imei i flashed the FACTORY BINARY but nothing i had lost modem and did not have baseband and NVDATA.
so with my heart rate @ a billion beats/sec with thoughts of i had bricked my phone. i clam down and started trouble shooting one by one .
At this point modem was undetected odin would fail to flash any firmware.
so i downloaded latest firmware 8.0. lucky it flashed and removed the FACTORY BINARY now back to stock 8.0 with no baseband and modem firmware. I did the following;
1. Flashed latest TWRP via Odin.
2.Formatted DATA then reboot back to TWRP (more drama ) your likely to face DM verify issue like i did here flash CF auto for android 7.0 but it wont give you root for some reason.
3.back to TWRP flash SuperSu for s7edge(SR1-supersu)
4.download the NVDATA,modem,and EFS for your device google search should yield.
5.flash NVDATA,modem and EFS. then factory reset the phone in TWRP
7.wait for many dramatic reboots,(reroot if you lost root)
8. then download and install ROOT BROWSER
still no network in my case at this point. i waited 20mins.
9.browse to the EFS folder in root. delete everything except **FACTORY APP**and **PROV-DATA**
10.do a full reboot
11.if no network like me, go to TWRP and factory reset.
12.sit back sip coffee and wait..
THIS IS WHAT WORKED FOR ME (G935F) i have since flashed back stock rom and rerooted and i have not lost IMEI again am now running a custom rom since 3hours ago still IMEI and network is strong. BE CAREFUL NOT TO BRICK YOUR PHONE I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. DO AMPLE RESEARCH BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS METHOD MAKE SURE ALL FILES ARE FOR YOUR DEVICE. ALWAYS KEEP LATEST STOCK ROM WITH YOU.

Could you tell me which rom should I flash on s7 edge locked to three UK? I bricked my phone. Don't have backup.

I was able to bring my s935f to life but unfortunately imei and signal is gone... Now, the fact is that I had same situation with my note5 in the past and...…. have given up due to lack of ideas how to fix such complicated thing like bringing back imei. Have tried all apps from play store-/rubbish. Even today I still have that motherboard in my drawer.
BUT s7 edge looks so great that I would take a chance to fix it if anyone my kind members could provide me with instruction explaining how to do this on basic knowledge level.
I know how to flash rom using Odin., how to install usb drivers, unlock oem, usb debugging,, how to flash twrp, root the phone...… but I struggle with the knowledge about 'pit file' (what the heck is that? because my odin 3.13.1 doesn't have pit file slot which I have seem on youtube movie....) ,I am confused with the fact that I can flash let say csc ,file in AP slot in din? Ums, …. Anotherwords wouldn't be a HUGE PROBLEM if the steps given on youtube or google work!!! But they don't!!! I mean my note5 here. So I am fully aware that simple looking instruction may bring a lot of hidden problems such as 'your rom flashed ok on youtube but my exactly the same phone and rom faild…. and now the Game starts when you read on google multiple solution and non of them work for you because you missed some small detail that wasnt mentioned in the movie because that was so obvious to creator. Looking back on my previous playing with roms I can say that IS ALWAYS SOMETHING ………. so I expect a lot of stress.
If YOU know or did it before how to make my phone great again, tell me please. Otherwise this pretty beast will end up mining electroneum.... Thanks

Problem with downgrading S8

Hello,
Recently I've updated my Galaxy S8 g950fd from Android 8.0 to 9.0, however i found it terrible and I would love to go back to 8.0. I've read many topics and all of them states that I have to downgrade it through the Odin. I've downloaded a few softs from websites:
SM-G950F_1_20181227130827_c3nriwjmas_fac
G950FXXS4CRLB
G950FXXS4CRLB_G950FOXM4CRL1_LYS
G950FXXU3CRGH_CL14023573_QB19093103
G950FXXS4CRLB_G950FOXM4CRL1_LYS
G950FXXU1AQG5_G950FOXM1AQG5_ZTO_4file
And non of them works. Odin keep showing FAIL message, phone stuck on bootloop and the only software I can use is 9.0 ( G950FXXS5DSF1_OXM5DSF1_(SM-G950FD))
At this moment I'm downloading 2 firmwares from sammobile.com website: XSG-G950FXXU4CRL3-20181218135110 and XSG-G950FXXS4CRLB-20190128142840 and I hope they will resolve the issue I'm facing.
What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way to downgrade my phone?
Thanks a lot for replies!

Your bootloader version is v5 and all other firmware including previous pie and all Oreo firmware are at v4 . If u installed June or July update on your phone then u can't go back anymore and thus Odin keep faling for your

I've found Lineage 15.1 OS with bootloader v5 on android 8.0 however I am struggling now with installing TWRP. Keep getting FAIL in ODIN and note in phone: Only official relased binaries are allowed to be flashed (RECOVERY). I've tried to reset cache, perform factory data, OEM is enabled and usb debugging as well. I don't know what's going on to be honest and after reviewing thousands of posts - I can't fix that issue.. My current software on my g950fd is G950FXXU5DSFB Android 9.0.
Is here anyone who can advice me what should I do? I would really appreciate that. Thanks!

Anyone?

Sorry can't help you with that much, it seems u did all correct steps for rooting the phone. dunno why u get only official binary message.
