[Q] [AOSP] Broken telephone feature - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, everytime I flashed an AOSP based Rom like Carbon on my hltexx, nobody can call me and I also can't call someone else. If I dial a number, the connection seems to break instantly but my mom told me, she got my calls but didn't hear anything. I'm also unable to change or view the access points.
Stock based Roms like Omega work correctly.
WTF am I doing wrong? :crying:
Additional Infos:
>SMS and Internet work.
>3G because my provider (Drei, Austria) is retarded.
>Android 4.4.2
>restoring an old EFS backup didn't solve the problem
>APN seems to be correct

Have you tried a custom kernel like temaseks kernel?

Not yet. I'll flash CM now and try a few kernels and will post the results later.
Btw here is one with the same problem.

I tried some kernels for hltexx, but everything I got was bootloops or a starting system with the same problem ;_;

Have you ever Flashed a newer rom(Sammy official) or updated your modem firmware?

Yes, I updated from 4.3 to 4.4.2 via odin and used the stock images for my provider. Everything worked as it should, only aosp roms had problems.
A few days ago I installed PAC again after flashing the newest stock .tar.md5 and tried the whole evening many different configurations in apn and other connection related settings. Nothing worked and i restored them all. On the next day I got a call. I couldn't explain it, but i was able to start phone calls too. With just one problem: When I call someone I lose the control over the whole Touchscreen and the buttons, so the only way to end a conversation is a hard reset via holding the power button.
I'm not sure, but I have the theory that the RIL file isn't compatible to the modem. Where can I find some RILs?
Another strange fact is, that everytime I flashed an AOSP, i formated the device via TWRP to erase all the bloatware and then made a full wipe. But last week I forgot to format the storage. Guys, was I really everytime this stupid and simply wiped the RIL partition away?

Model number?
Firmware you have upgraded to (4.4.2)?
Tried changing recovery, Wipe System, wipe cache, data, then flash the ROM fresh. boot into it, head to Settings > about and check if you have lost Baseband and/or Serial Number/IMEI - then we'll figure it out for you

Sorry for answering so late. Changing every password after heartbleed took much time.
My model number is SM-9005
Even with a CWM based recovery and after a wipe with a complete reinstall I get the same problem.
IMEI and Baseband (N9005XXUENB1) are still here.

[H] Can't call and answer to anybody.

Hi guys.
What should I do, if my major function of the phone doesn't work?
When I try to call somebody, phone hangs (can't see even screen with options of the call), but it is actually calling.
It's weird to have this not working at all.
Tried reinstalling rom, installing other roms. Still the same. I did format to everything what's on my phone.
Help!

You need to give more information than that inorder for us to help you , are you using 4.3 custom/stock ? check youre baseband version, and check what kind of bootloader do you have (To check your bootloader go to download mode and if you have a KNOX WARRANTY VOID then you are having the new bootloader.

Oh I'm sorry.

My baseband version is XXUEMK8 (today I thought about modem problem, so I installed XXUEMK8 instead od XXUEMKF, which is recommended for Phoenix rom. The same on both modems) New bootloader.

Wifi not turning on i9505 after flashing custom rom

Hello guys, after I flashed a custom rom my phone went into a bootloop. I decided to flash stock , via odin. After I flashed the stock rom for my region (open european) I got many FC messages , the phone was unusable.
I started digging and flashing roms. Now I have i9505xxugng8 which is a nordic country rom.
When I try to open wifi , the button gets green for one second but then it stays deactivated.
1. Tried to remove battery
2.Tried to delete the wpa_supplicant.conf file from /data/misc/wifi or /system/etc/wifi
3.Tried the non-hos bin.
Nothing worked. I'm desperate.

Try this steps
1. Rooted ! Open root explorer > System > Build.prop change this in the build.prop:
ro.securestorage.support=true TO ro.securestorage.support=false Save , Reboot
2. Either flash a diff kernel.
Have a nice day.
Hello repulsa, i Tried your method but it didn't work
It may be a hardware problem? But I've never dropped it

i might try this however.. im having trouble with the bluetooth and not on the wifi toggle/module. are you using the M9 build or the nightlies?
The Wi-Fi problem is knox related , I don t think switching go cm11 would solve the Bluetooth problem.
Now I'm using the latest version of miui and works well.

I also have this problem. Went from CM11 to stock (GF was supposed to use the phone and preferred stock...).
And now, no wifi, tried most things, checked build.prop, deleted wpa_supplicant, pulled battery, cleared cache.
Nothing works.
I'd be ok with going back to CM11, but the S-View cover won't work with it.
Any more ideas?

I don't think this is your problem, but just to put this out there in case other people stumble upon the thread....
This can be caused by using a custom kernel in a CM11 based ROM that was built after about August 3rd (give or take a few days)
CM changed the way the Wifi and data are managed by the kernel. So older customer kernels aren't compatible.

[Q] No network service GT-S7710 after installing CM10.1, 10.2 or 11

Hi peoples!
I’ve recently installed Cyanogenmod on my Samsung galaxy Xcover 2 (GT-S7710). But when I was done installing my phone couldn’t get any data (H/2G/3G) or call and receive calls. Could someone tell me what I did wrong or forgot whilst or after I installed Cyanogenmod? I would like to know because I’ve read other threads where people with a GT-S7710 do have a working network service on their phone with CM. And I also would like to know the solution to this problem because I can’t take a beating .
I apologize for the length of this first post . I just want to be totally complete about what I’ve done and tried so far to get CM to work with network service. I posted all this information to inform you all and so you could stripe a lot of questions off your list for finding the solution. Also I think this thread may be very useful for other Samsung Android users as well.
Kind regards,
Rick Willems
The problem
So the problem is that when I’ve installed CM10.1 or 10.2 or 11 to my GT-S7710, I don’t have any network service anymore. I tried to install CM using the following method: http://blog.arinium.fi/2014/07/howto-fix-samsung-xcover-2-issues-old-android-low-memory-slow-ui/. I installed CWM 6.0.4.6, wiped cache and installed CM10.2. After this it got stuck in a bootloop. Using the advice of this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2084905 which was to also wipe data/factory reset and wipe dalvik using CWM it worked!! YES!! But **** no service.
Used Files to install
Links I used to download CWM, CM and Gapps come from these pages:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2384015&highlight=no+network, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43294839#post43294839,
CWM: http://www.adriadata.net/xda/skomer/
CM: http://www.adriadata.net/xda/skomer/
Gapps: https://itvends.com/gapps/
What I’ve done and tried
I tried to get network service back when I installed CM10.1 and CM11. In both cases I did a full wipe of data/factory reset, cache and dalvik then installed the latest stock rom/firmware 4.1.2 and do the instructions over again form the chosen method. I did notice that my phone does have network service when I have installed the stock rom/firmware downloaded from this link: http://www.mrcrab.net/down-firmware/14362/Samsung-Galaxy-Xcover-2-GT--S7710.html, My device also has got service when CWM 6.0.4.6. is flashed over the stock rom/firmware. Just not when I installed CM. CM10.1 was running more smoothly than CM10.2 and CM11 was running a little less smooth than CM10.2.
Attempt to solve the problem
I’ve brainstormed the following pages to get to the point of giving up .

http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/85051-no-service-cant-calltextnetwork-after-flashing-cm11-nightly-on-i9305/
The most pages are threads for other devices, but I thought I just read it anyway, maybe I could get some useful information out of it. Some pages talk about CDMA/RUIM that you can find under network setting in settings, but I’ve not been able to find it on my GT-S7710. Other data found in these pages are also not corresponding with my device.
What I did notice and learned was that information in the EFS folder like Imei, Baseband etc. are used to find and recognize the simcard and thus enable data usage and be able to call and receive calls. So I thought why not backup a copy the EFS folder and place it in CM’s EFS folder after install, so I did. I installed stock firmware where my network service works following the same steps I took that I described earlier, backup the EFS folder to sdcard1, install CWM and CM10.1 and tried to copy the backed-up EFS folder to CM root. But no way would it replace the CM EFS folder, CM simply blocks the copied EFS folder from stock rom/firmware.
I am just out of ideas now and am requesting your aid. Please help me .
Got the same problem here,unfortunately no fix yet

For those trying to install this or another rom and having the no signal(no smallband) problem. This worked for me on 2 xcovers.
Install cmw: http://theunlockr.com/2014/02/27/install-clockworkmod-recovery-samsung-galaxy-xcover-2-gt-s7710/
Root it: http://theunlockr.com/2014/02/27/root-samsung-galaxy-xcover-2-gt-s7710/
Now normally you can install the custom rom now(vanir). If you do you probably get no signal.
Start odin and flash this file : S7710XXAMB6_S7710OXEAMB3-20130713.tar.md5
I found it on this site: http://www.ulozto.cz/xHADj5PD/samsung-7z
If its dead you can pm me and I can send it.
After I flashed this the phone would just go in a bootloop.
Don't be afraid this is normal.
Now install the vanir rom in the cmw recover mode.
After this it should work fine.
Add a microsd card with 2 partitions and install mount2sd and you have a fully working phone with(almost) unlimited space.
I'm using if for an year now and it works great.
Better then most €500 phones which break after 1 fall .

With skomer it is definitely a baseband problem. Changing baseband solves the network signal.

because i have the same problem, i installed cm10.2 and everything were fine for a week and then no signal, i tried to install all the available firmwares out there, the closest i got was to find network and 3g i made a successfull call then i shut it off. At the next boot nothing again. My baseband is xxxx. What do i have to do to change baseband? My IMEI is correct.
does anyone have a /modemfs and /efs folder available to try or/and a modem file to flash?
Odin flash
Go to this page https://boycracked.com/2016/09/11/official-samsung-galaxy-xcover-2-gt-s7710-stock-rom/ and download stock rom labeled "oxeamb3". Put your phone on download mode and connect to odin. Flash this rom with it.
After that, flash your clockworkmod and custom rom. Vanir or CM.
If you still lose signal, try with AND2 stock rom. It's been a while since I did this so I don't remember exactly, but I think AND2 had problems with signal and AMB3 didn't.

Wifi Trouble

Hi Guys,
I flashed my Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 on Cm12 optimized final version (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=21406&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC)
and everything was fine until I couldn't get a connection to any wifi.
I am at home now and try to get a connection to my router but it won't work.
I even flashed the matching modem.bin again (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025)
but nothing...
I am located in Germany by the way and my baseband version is "I9505XXUGNG1".
It tries to connect via ad-hoc out of the sudden but I did not change anything.
Since I've connected via a router from the very beginning this is wrong, right?
Any suggestions what to do?
Thanks!

You are using a 4.4.2 modem on a 5.0.1 rom. That could be the source of your problem.
ps I would just update to the CM 12.1 optimized version. It's rock solid and that could possibly also fix your problems.

A modem is never included in a custom rom. Make sure to fully wipe before you flash the 12.1.
If after that you still have wifi issues, then you could try to upgrade bootloader and modem.

OK. Full wipe means wipe data/factory reset & wipe cache?
Because in Antares instructions it just says wipe data/ factory reset.
You mentioned that I use a 4.4.2 modem.
Won't this be on it after the reset?

Yes it means wiping data/ factory reset from the recovery (the cache is wiped automatically in the process).
It's up to you what you want. I would still update to the CM 12.1 because it contains the latest Android bugfixes.
If after that you still have wifi issues, you could update the bootloader + modem to match lollipop version.
Or you could just update bootloader + modem now and see if it fixes it.

I think you got me wrong.
I will update to cm 12.1 anyways but my question is
whether after the wipe the old 4.4.2 modem I've got
installed still will be on my device and cause problems
with the newer ROM or not because you mentioned that
no custom ROMs have modems included.
Installed 12.1 and it seems to work fine!
Wifi works without any trouble..hope it stays that way.
The Modem is still the same but I assume that I can leave it like that.
Thank you for your help again!

No mobile data after changing kernel

Hey Guys,
the last weeks my OP6T crashed nearly every day with a modem error.
I didnt find the reason so i changed from stock kernel to elementalx.
Since then my phone dont crash anymore, but now i have a bigger problem.
I dont get a mobile internet connection anymore.
Next problem: the signal icons in statusbar dont show any mobile data icon, only signal stength. There is waning or exclamation mark icon too.
I have two Sim-Cards from different providers in the phone, problem consists on both.
I've tried to reinstall the stock kernel (Full Rom) and another custom kernel but the problem still appears.
My APN Settings are right.
Wiping System didnt help.
Tried different connection Types in the INFO-Menu didnt help too. (Data-Service: not connected)
Maybe some of you guys have an idea or the solution for my problem.
I'm praying for avoiding a full wipe ?
Thank you in advance
OxygenOS 9.0.17
rooted
Your baseband might have been wiped/ removed accidently
Thanks for your answer.
If thats the problem, how do i fix it?
Shouldnt the baseband be installed from the full rom Installation?

Nowdays I'm not too sure, I haven't messed much with stuff since ics days. But back then it was quite a common problem. I remember being able to just pull the baseband file from a stock rom and put it into the right folder in the modded rom. Don't know if that still applies or can be done nowdays
