NEED HELP - Galaxy Xcover 2 Baseband "xxxx" after flashing - Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 Questions & Answers

..

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54324275&postcount=283
There are many users with network issues with that rom, but seems because there are a lot of different firmware versions for different areas which is why every other users that mentioned it were having issues while the others said all was well.

Thanks for the Link.
I´m also thinking that it´s a Problem with the Permissions.
After setting all to chmod 777 in /efs and /modemfs Folders I´m now able to connect to the mobile service...
But not really good.
Sometimes it´s two hours without service, sometimes it works then for 5min but it never works for more than 10 minutes.
When I try to connect to the mobile Internet i can only use very very slow G connection.
Normally i should get H here...
Help me :crying:

[Q] WiFi connection issues on AmeriCanAndroid

I have been using AmeriCanAndroid for a few days now and have found that I have some serious WiFi connection issues. I connect to my home network with excellent signal, but after approximately a minute, it disconnects, then after another 30 seconds or so, reconnects to the same network with the same signal strength.
I have tried connecting to the same network on windows and it is perfectly fine. Also, the same issue occurs with other networks elsewhere when booted into AmeriCanAndroid. Other Android builds I have tried have not had this issue, so it must logically be something to do with the one I am currently using.
I have tried rebooting multiple times, as well as Re-installing (I only deleted SD Card files and re-copied the previously downloaded Android folder), but the issue persists. Could anyone please suggest a possible solution, as I have gathered throughout the forums that AmeriCanAndroid is easily the fastest, smoothest and most battery efficient build released.
the rom is italian
is italian the rom?
Sorry, but I don't quite understand what you mean? I downloaded the build from the thread in the forums and everything seems to be English.
Edit: saw that there's an update available to download. Downloaded it and found that it WORKS!

Wi-Fi Drivers, libs

I want to know have can i solve my wifi problems without installing new rom on it.
What is the wireless driver, where are they in my system files?
We can fix the camera issues with changing camera lib files. Can i do that for wifi?
Wifi Problem is ;
I can connect wifi, first it was work fine. After several minutes it dropped and not connect any internet, after several seconds it reconnectted. It always keep going this way.
Can you please help me on this?
What ROM version are you running?
B137 stock and modaco.com/content/huawei-u8800-ideos-x5-u8800-modaco-com/342205/23-june-b137-r3-flb-custom-rom-for-the-huawei-u8800-with-online-kitchen/
I have two of them on my clockwork recovery. Both of them have same issue. I want to try other roms, but its too hard for me to give the time for each rom. So i want to try other roms wifi libs, driver, firmwares.
Not a fan of 137s I've tried so far...You should try these versions:
- V100R001C00B136 (Overseas General version) 2011-05-17
- V100R001C17B160CUSTC17D002 (China Unicom) 2011-04-29
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Huawei_Firmware_U8800
To install any of the ROMs, just download the Huawei Firmware you want and unzip it, there should be a folder called "dload" copy that folder and its contents to your sdcard.
Power off phone then hold both volume buttons while powering on the phone, the update should start.
I don't understand why you think it's easier to change a lib/driver and spend a huge amount of time trying to get it to work, when it takes 30 minutes to install a new ROM and all previous applications, if synced with a Google account. When I first got the phone, I've installed like 6-7 ROMs in a matter of hours...
So, in my opinion, you should try the B160 or B136 before you actually start fiddling around with libs.

Are you read my first post ? I Don'T want to try roms. Install new rom, try wifi, over and over. End when find it, wait for the all install downloaded. Chancge launcher and other apps to what you want. It is just boring. I try 4 different froyo roms and nothing seems worked. If i know the what file i must replace, i just have time. Many many more time.

) I've read your post, but if you think this is windows, where you can just change the wifi drivers, you're in for a treat . The newer ROMs wifi is fine, so whatever you're doing, you're obviously not doing it right or you have a faulty phone.

I don't understand a thing from your post. Are you understand me?
IF IS A WINDOWS, I CAN CHANGE DRIVER FROM SYSTEM32/DRIVERS. Or install new driver for it. Newer roms are for WHO ? Mine and other my friends in turkey, have same problem. Even they updated the B137 with updata.app from original sources.
Please if you don't know or understand my post, just leave it to be. Obviosly i can't decribe my problem to you.
The whole windows thing was a comparison...All I was trying to say is that upgrading drivers is NOT EASY, as the problem may not be in the lib file.
You better go and learn some ENGLISH, before you try and understand the answers you're given. ) quote "Are you understand me?"
Very very few people have wifi problems like you are experiencing. This isn't to say it doesn't happen as obviously you are having issues, but it's not a rom issues. It's likely that your problem is either a hardware issue with the phone or an issue with your router settings.
Currently there aren't any alternative wifi libs you can try since all the roms are using exactly the same wifi libs which are located in the kernel image, not the system.
I've been experiencing the same problem -international B136 ROM- however I think it may be the router that is the cause of it. Whilst in the main house with the new wireless g router, no issues, everything works fine. In my extension with the old wireless b router the problem happens all the time.
The problem doesn't really bother me to much, but I thought I'd add my 2 cents just in case you were after some more information on the issue =)
guys, I recommend reading my post in the general section with subject "Wifi Client Tuning ... solve connection problem "

i have simillar wifi problem. When i connect my airties modem,my internet connection is vere very slowly(60-80kpps as speedtest program) How can i fix this problem? Do you think b136 or b160 could fix it?

Definitely, if you've got something like B133, the first thing you have to do is upgrade to 136-137 or 160. You will see huge improvements in terms of Wifi.
is there any problem in b136 or b160? Which one should i apply?
In my view, the best of stock ROMs is B160. The battery lasts longer and it's got less problems.
how can i see my rom version? and do u send offical b160's link?
Go to Settings >>About Phone and scroll down to Build Number. It should look like this U8800V100R001C00B133SP01 and the bit that interests you is B133 or whatever version you've got.
Since Modaco Wiki is down, try this link:
http://www.filefactory.com/f/0f067250fb54623e/
B160 is called China Unicom in that list.
I've managed to get a cached version of Modaco Wiki that is currently down.

[Q] No phone-network after ICS CM9

Hi,
I've used CM7 and CM9 before with no major problem. But probably did something wrong because after flashing couple of ICS ROMs my phone (Defy-red lens) became unusable with 2 problems:
- no mobile network connection (no phone-calls, no SMS, no 2/3G)
(Wifi and Bluetooth are OK)
- it does not save the setup, each boot is a new phone with new configuration setup.
I've tried different ROMs (CM9, Quarx, Skanky, etc) with different Kernels (7 & 9), but nothing seems to change this behavior.
The phone also doesn't recognize the IMEI and can't search of operators. I've attached some screeshots.
I was wondering if someone else could share their experience with me or, somehow try to help me. I'm willing to try out things....
Cheers.
You tried changing your baseband??
Sent from my Defy+ using Tapatalk 2
Baseband is not initialized/installed. In the first pic, it shows the baseband as 'unknown'. Select proper baseband matching your country from Baseband Switcher (settings -> Advanced->Baseband Switcher) and reboot your phone.

Baseband is by default on Europe > Central Europe > 3.4x 900/2100 MHz which is not right for me. Should be America > Brasil > TIM 3.4.2-107-9 850/2100 Mhz.
The problem is, as I mentioned, that the phone does not save any settings. After the reboot the Baseband comes back to the default setting.
I already did the wipe factory/reset, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache many times before/after flashing a ROM (and event deleted the dalvik cache folder via terminal emulator since it wasn't asking for confirmation when deleting via cwm) but didn't really change anything...
Any idea what's leading to the settings not being saved?
Thank you for helping.
PS: I didn't play with partitions, but as I've read in this post, of a similar problem, that this might be the case, I'll post the screenshot of the command df just in case...

Though the problem seems quite different but it might be your baseband switcher..
try BBs_v4
It might work.

Thanks. I was able to change the baseband with this app (and somehow keep this setting after a reboot - see screenshots), but under "About phone" still shows as Baseband version Unknown. And I still have no network signal...
Meanwhile... the matter with partitions and settings lost after reboot:
I know a litte of Linux, but I don't understand Android's structure or how it deals with partitions, but I might have found something:
In Bootmenu Recovery > Advanced > Show Log reads:
Bootmenu Recover v.5.0.6
I:Chechinkg arguments.
I:device_recovery_start()
Command: "/sbin/recovery"
ro.secure=1
ro.allow.mock.location=0
ro.debuggable=0
persist.service.adv.enable=0
ro.factorytest=0
ro.usb_mode=normal
ro.bootmode=reboot
ro.baseband=unknown
ro.carrier=unknown
ro.bootloader=0x0000
ro.hardware=mapphone_umts
ro.revision=0
I:Cheching for extendcommand...
I:Skipping execution of exetendcommand, file not found...
W: failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p25 (Invalid argument)​
As I see that in the system there are others blocks with similar names (screenshots in post #4), I was wondering if this might be related to the problem I'm dealing with (loosing settings after reboot).
I see some people had problems with this block/partition, for instance in this post - Issue with /dev/block/mmcblk1p25, but I couldn't figure out how they fixed.
Any help is much appreciated.
Hi fbugnon,
I have the same problem on my Defy. I've tried to use 2 differents builds from wdscript.fr (120613 and 120610), installed baseband switcher, but the problem is the same as yours.
Everytime the phone restarts, it resets all settings.
I'm trying to use a build from quarx (quarx2k.ru, build 120305) now, let's see if that helps.
I'll keep you updated.
Hi tiagomelo,
I've tried many differents ROMs but no one was able to change this behavior. I'm not sure, but I believe the problem is related to the partition error mentioned on my last post -- do you also have the same problem?
I was forced, eventually, to do a full SBF with Tim's original system so that I could use my phone and now I'm using CM 7.2 rc3.... Waiting for ICS to solve the calendar sync bug which is crucial for my work and then I'm back on.
Wish you good luck! And please keep us posted, I would like to know where this will lead you to.
Cheers

What ROM are you using? Your build version. And is the problem exactly as described in OP, then I see that its been resolved.
A bit same like yours
Guys i dont know if if i can help you over here but i was some issues with the call/data/3g ... for me as soon as i tried using them they froze completely, not the phone but the signals .. its was related to my baseband settings and stuff,
so i found a solution for this ...
go into recovery cpu settings,
Status: enable
Enable all modules
Scaling: Conservative
dont forget to save at bottom and reboot
if these settings worked for you then it should be alright
This is just a suggestion to the issue .. u can try it .. I don't know if it is %100...
for me it works

That's a different thing. The reason for your freeze would be something with your CPU/chipset.
Good to see someone who is familiar with this issue of mine ..
so would u b able to tell me why i was having this problem with the chipset/cpu related to calls and data download ...
i know its not the right thread but i tried other thread but no answers yet
i came across this solution after a lot of seaching .. trial n error
u dont know what i've been through ... but using this settings doesnt give me good downloading speed in google play though

Hi Ajitnegi,
As mentioned before, the only solution I could find to this problem was restoring the orignal ROM (Motorola's) by doing what they call a full SBF (you can read a bit about sbf in here or in posts on this forum).
Sorry not being able to help any further. Good luck.
Cheers.
Same problem | No network connection
Hi
I am also facing the same problem, no network connection. After going through this post where you had asked to change the baseband settings to the country specific, I did change it. Unfortunately, even after changing the baseband settings, after reboot it changes to default value (.i.e. Central Europe).
While going through this forum, I could not find any final settings provided by the developer, did you get any ? If so, can you point out to it.
Thanks,
Nash

Hi Ajitnegi
I don't know if this is the only way to fix it, but In order to recover MY phone I had to flash a full SBF, which is -- as I understand -- basically a Motorola Recovery that works pretty much like a factory reset. Search the forum and I'm sure you'll find someone explaining how to do it.
Or if you rather take some time to better understand what's going on with your phone before you start flashing it, you might want to take a look at this excellent "All-in-one Defy Beginner's Guide".
Cheers
i have the same issue, i have No Network and No Wifi
after flashing CM9 on my SGW from stock ROM
Help please .

[Q] Factory Mode

Hello to all you developers out there.
For quit some while now is recieve a consistent warning pop-up whenever i reboot my phone. It only occourse when i'v installed a TW rom. When i'm running any other rom like a GPE for example, the warning does not appear.
Currently i'm on Goldeneye 49.2. My phone is a GT-I9505 on baseband-version: I9505XXUGNK4
I'm not a developer, but a true flashjunky. I would not now how many times is flashed one of your roms and so i do not now specific when this problem started. I'v spend much time browsing the internet in search of this problem and how to fix it. But my effords where not succesfull. The only thing i might have picked up about it, is that is could be related to a corrupt EFS. I hope some of you out there can give me a headsup about this.
Plus! I want to thank all you devoted developers out there. Your hard work and effords are much apreciated.
I have made a picture of the warning.
Thank you for taking your time reading this and i hope someone knows how to fix this.

Hi There,
Thanks for your quick reply. As soon as i read about the EFS, i also read about the backup of the EFS. But i didn't have on.
I made a backup and tried to restore. But i gues a corruption would also be backuped. I also tried to manualy adjust the EFS. Neither workt. Following that i tried holding down the power button for more then 10 seconds till it rebooted (read that somewere between de lines). I also tried various other roms, kernels and basebands. I full despiration i tried returning to fully stock rom. Nothing worked.
Now it has been about a month and a half i left this issieu. So ik can not be very specific about mij tries to resolve.
Is this in any way helpfull?
that is one of the saddest thing that will happen to your phone. My sister has s2 and s3 and she was a flashaholic with different roms and now both phones have no signal/baseband unknown.. She never back up her efs so she cant fix it. I tried my very best to search for an answer, i saw some but it never solve it anyways. Im using my s4 and i backed up my efs every flash that i do. Try to flash official rom, latest modem and pray that it will fix it.

Hi
Well let me tell you about a few things you can try , with some luck they may be enough if not you may have to take it to a local repair shop with a Z3X box of similar they may be able to rebuilt the EFS folder
Check if the EFS folder is mounted correctly
Install / use Terminal Emulator
mount -r -w -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
mount -r -w -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 /efs
Reboot
With a root explorer go to EFS/factoryApp/factorymode and open it if it says off change it to on
In case none of the above worked check this great thread about EFS and Factory Mode for further help…..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392632
If those points do not work and without an working EFS backup you may have to look for professional help ( with a Z3X box or similar )

Thank you very much for your help. I did tried to fix the EFS with the guides in the site you mentioned repeatedly. But none were succesfull. The strings you mention in your post, do not look formiliar and i tried them just now. After the second string i get the following in the Emulator:
" can't format mounted filesystem"
Could this be the issieu? Both de FactoryApp and Keystr are on ' ON ' when i open them in a rootexplorer.
And i'm starting to think this problem will, despite all your help, not be resolved.
@MAX 404 try to go to the nearest cellphone repair shop they have this cable that can fix that issue. Its around 4-5$ depends on your country.

Thank you very much for your help. I did tried to fix the EFS with the guides in the site you mentioned repeatedly. But none were succesfull. The strings you mention in your post, do not look formiliar and i tried them just now. After the second string i get the following in the Emulator:
" can't format mounted filesystem"
Could this be the issieu? Both de FactoryApp and Keystr are on ' ON ' when i open them in a rootexplorer.
And i'm starting to think this problem will, despite all your help, not be resolved.

Hi
Regarding the string , Are you root at the moment , maybe that is the problem , i have not tried in while but they should work...did you check in the thread i gave you?
regarding your other point , ON is the normal , ON is not factory mode...strange but is like that..

I found a wrong reverence in the string. In your string you refer to mmcblk0p10. Except voor the S4 it's ...0p3. Found that out after you let me check the thread again. Although the factory mode is still on after inserting your three strings.
Second thing i noticed was that with the first two string, i get a repley string and info that i can't understand. With the third string, i get no reply string in the emulator. Do you think this can be part of the problem?
I also included a screenshot from the emulator.

[Problem identified] CM 12.1 - Wifi connectivity VS mobile data priority problem

[Solution HERE: disable AFWall+-2.0-alpha2]
Hey there,
I installed the optimized CM12.1 20150602 with Xposed and Xprivacy and now I got a connectivity problem:
When I come back from flight mode or enter a known wifi, wlan0 connects to my local wifi but Internet still gets routed through mobile data (LTE).
ping rounter not possible
Wifi icon has a "!"
netcfg shows:
Code:
rmnet_usb0 UP 10.175.104.107/29 0x00000041
wlan0 UP 192.168.2.126/24 0x00001043
on turning off mobile data, wifi data starts working and keeps working when I turn mobile data back on
I tried with a clean system: no problem, added Xposed/Xprivacy: no problem. So I guess one of my apps with root access must have caused that bug.
Possible candidates: AFWall, AdAway, droid VNC, OpenVPN, OS Monitor, SSHDroid, Tasker, TB.
Anyone knows how to fix this? I guess it must be a problem of how and what gets prioritized.
The setup took me quite some time and it would be great if I could fix this without starting from scratch. Plus I'd like to know the source of the problem.
Log attached.
I run none of the apps you mention and have the same issue and it happens on all wireless networks. I know of two workarounds, if they can be called that.
First is to cycle WiFi from within settings. When I do that it normally works right for a few days after.
Second is to power cycle my wireless router. That normally only works for a day or so as well.
I personally feel this is a flaw in CM as I have also seen the exact same issue on CM and any ROM built from it.
FIX
I found a fix for my problem by trial and error:
First I dirtyflashed the system again which didn't help, so I thought the problem must be in /data... thats where wpa_supplicant.conf is located so I had a look at it and strangest thing was:
The priority numbers for high eventhough it had only three entries. I changed them to 1/2/3 and rebooted. After that automatic connection to wifi worked again. BUT:
I rechecked the
Code:
/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
again and the priority was back to the old state: 41/47/38 - in this order for the only three networks.
So the fix for me was: Change priority and save. Reboot afterwards.
Can someone elaborate on how this could fix the problem?
Oh and I must revoke my solution. Didn't work on the other network. :/
OK next trial and fail: deleting wpa_supplicant so it gets renewed. No difference.
Maybe I just try to install a fresh install and just restore /data.
I tried deleting the whole /data/misc/wifi folder. Didnt fix it!
And now I even installed from scratch and restored /data only from backup. Didn't help either!
What do I have to remove to fix this???
Rule number 1 of the Optimized ROM: do not use Xposed if you want support. So, uninstall Xposed, make a logcat of your issue if uninstalling Xposed doesn't fix it, then send that to AntaresOne.
He doesn't read the threads in Q&A, and wouldn't reply to this one anyway because of Xposed.

Yes, thank you, I know that.
I didn't report a bug, I'm just trying to understand the problem, so I won't run into it again.
I tried tried a clean system and a clean system with Xposed and Xprivacy installed and did not have that problem, so I ruled that out.
Lucky for me: I did mention that in my OP.
My point is that you're presenting your information to the wrong audience. You need to post the logcat, without Xposed, on the Optimized CM12.1 thread, if you haven't already done so. That way the people who can actually do something about it can attempt to fix it.
I do apologize however for not reading the thread properly. It was late at night for me and I was half asleep. *sigh*
SOLUTION
So I hope it is fixed now.
My last resort was to flash a new modem/non-hlos.
I was on a 4.4.2 modems (DTM-I9505XXUGNG8_I9505DTMGNG3_I9505XXUGNG8_HOME.tar) before and updated to the latest modems for T-Mobile Germany: DTM-I9505XXUHOD5_I9505DTMHOD1_I9505XXUHOD5_HOME.tar.
This seemed to have solved my Wifi problem.
Step-by-step (no data loss but still: make a backup):
Check which is the latest ROM for your country/carrier on sammobile.com
Download ROM on sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com (no account necessary).
Extract ZIP > rename extracted *.tar.md5 to *.tar > extract modem and non-hlos file from *.tar with WinRAR or the likes.
Shutdown mobile and start into Download mode (Vol-Down)
Run Odin, disable Auto-restart and flash modem and reboot back into Download mode (I did that twice because people were hinting that but I doubt it's necessary).
Flash non-hlos in case you have a S4-LTE version.
Reboot and test.
/edit: didn't fix it.
Solved this time?
I think I finally found the problem: AFWall v2.0-alpha2 seems to cause the connectivity problem.
As soon as I deactivate the Firewall connection won't have any problems. I can't believe I needed so much time to find the bad boy.
Guess I didn't want to reduce security on my system, so I tried to avoid disabling/deleting my firewall.
