I was trying to update my phone with a lost kernal via odin and something went wrong. When I got done it said firmware update failed and to redo via Kies. Tried that and the program would not recognize the phone. Finally got back to stock after much fiddling around and I have no signal and my phone is locked in airplane mode and it wont come out. I read a thread about clearing cache and restarting but that did not solve the problem. The one thing I did notice is in about phone in baseband and hardware reads "unknown". I dont want to take it to Sprint because my Odin counter reads 27 and I dont have a jig to reset, any help would be highly appreciated
if your baseband reads unknown you flashed using the phone box and overwrote your modem driver.
easy enough to fix however we don't have aan eg30 modem driver
so your stuck with eg12 for a bit.
still works though check out

Worked perfectly, thanks man!!!!
I installed baseband on my R800i, but phone started to turn on and off. Can I delete baseband, or replace it with some better?
Your phone comes with a baseband installed. You should try installing your first one, and see if this will fix your issue.
if your boot loader is unlocked you can flash another. http://adfoc.us/423185569090 or re-flash this firmware in the link.
Now it's worse. I can't connect phone to PC, because it's discharged...
Hello everyone. Apparently, this is a fairly common issue, but I haven't seen many threads where this has been resolved (If I'm wrong, I'm very sorry). I've tried flashing back to various versions of stock, both with Fastboot, and ODIN with no luck. It seems to boil down to flashing the CDMA radio. The standard radio seems to flash fine, and even shows the baseband in Fastboot mode (However, it doesn't show it in android). CDMA acts like it flashed fine, but as soon as I reboot the device (fastboot reboot-bootloader), it goes straight back to "CDMA unknown". It should also be noted that dialing the *#06# code reveals nothing but a blank box and an OK button. I remember reading about it possibly being a corrupt EFS partition, but I'm not quite sure how to go about checking it.
Thanks in advance!
I have a Note 8.0 that is stuck in a boot loop. It get to the initial screen. "Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 GT-N5110" and then screen goes blank and it starts over again. Never goes past this screen. I have flashed a stock rom (\N5110UEU2COI3_N5110XAR2COI3_HOME.tar.md5) using odin. Odin gives me a pass when it is finished but the issue persists.
Any help with this is appreciated.
Re-flash the stock ROM but, before booting for the first time, boot into stock recovery and do a full wipe. This may help get out of the bootloop.
audit13, thanks for the suggestion. I tried 3 times with no success. I did see the android with his belly door opened and the blue box spinning. Didn't see that before. However when I boot into recovery the android's belly door has a red triangle in it. A full wipe/reset has no effect and the symptoms persist.
Any other thoughts? Thanks again
I recommend trying again with Odin 3.07.
In Odin, uncheck everything except f.reset time. Connect the tablet in download mode, flash the tar.md5 file in PDA. When you see the word "Reset" in the status window, remove USB cable, press and hold the power button to power off the unit. After the unit is off, use the key combination to boot immediately into recovery and perform a factory wipe/reset. If that doesn't work, you may need to flash the ROM in combination with a pit file.
audit13, tried your instructions and still ended up with the same issue. I used odin3 v3.07. Can you point me to the pit file you referred to in your previous post.
I have this file - BL_N5110UEU2CNE2_1498778_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
and this - CSC_XAR_N5110XAR2CNE2_1498778_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
Are they of any use to me in this situation?
Thanks again for taking an interest in my problem, Keith
Did you download the stock ROM from sammobile? If you did, you should unzip the file once which gives you a tar.md5 file. It is this tar.md5 that is flashed in the PDA section of Odin 3.07.
SamMobile has many countries listed but not USA. Do I use Cellular South? The file I have been trying was not from SamMobile.
When you boot into download mode, does it give you the model #? Do you see anything about Knox or warranty bit in download mode?
The firmware named in the original post looks like it matches Cellular South.
I'm not sure if the 5110 was sold in the USA. If your model is wifi only, another country may work. If it's celluar, different countries use different frequencies which means cross flashing may work but connectivity (wifi and cellular) may not work.
Download mode shows this:
Odin mode (in red)
Product name: GT-N5110
Current binary: Samsung Official
System status: Custom
Knox Warranty Void: 0
RP SWREV: A2
It's strange that you were able to flash a stock ROM but the system status is "custom".
I suggest trying to flash an entire ROM from sammobile.com similar to the BL and CSC you flashed earlier. It may be simplet to install a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM so you can at least confirm the baseband and bootloader currently installed.
I'll give a custom recovery and rom a try tonight after work. TWRP and any stable build correct?
As for those two separate files, I didn't try anything with them. I downloaded them in case I needed to use them.
This is a board that I got off eBay for $5 and I don't know it's history. Could this issue be hardware related? The board looks good with no signs of corrosion (water damage) of hot spots (electrical surge).
It seems as though it can't find the os on boot.
Thanks again.
Did the board ever boot or was it stuck in a bootloop from the beginning? How did you know which bootloader to flash?
The board has never booted. The only files I have flashed are the one in my first post and the one from SamMobile (Cellular South) as per your instructions. These two files appear to be one in the same. Both files when flashed produced the same result, boot loop.
Do the files contain a boot loader? It sure feels like that is where the problem lies.
Success! Flashed TWRP and then installed SlimKat 4.4.4 and all is working. Need to get gapps installed but for now this board is good.
audit13, thanks again for you interest in my issue.
Hi,
I flashed wrong ROM which removed IMEI number from my S6.
Now I have G920PVPU3BOL1 in my phone. Phone turns on and goes to screen where Phone is getting ready for the first time use, Step 3/4, that's where it turns off and goes into continuous boot-loop. It doesn't pick network signal.
I can go to recovery options to do factory reset but comes back to the same issue.
I cannot flash G920PVPU1AOCF ROM via odin because apparently once I have upgraded to 5.1.1, I cannot go back to older versions. I can flash Custom ROMs but phone doesn't pick up the network signal because Baseband version uknown and IMEI is Null.
If anybody knows how to fix this, I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you regardless.

Try flashing the correct firmware for your device or do a full odin flash that includes the rom & firmware.
Also try calling: ##update#
This will update your PRL and such, it could help
same here I also flashed it to same firmware G920PVPU3BOL1 and now no imei, pse hlp
