[Q] network problem after rooting installing roms - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

The other day I took the plunge and decided to root my phone and install some ROMs. It was all going well until I started noticing that I wasn't able to make/receive calls or texts. I had gio pro 1.4 installed when I first noticed this problem and I had read that installing cyanogenmod 7.2 had helped someone with a similar issue so I installed it.
Now I have cnmod 7.2 installed with the same problem and with my carrier name changed from virgin to bell. If I restart my phone I am able to call and send messages for a few minutes but then craps out again.
Hopefully someone can help me
Thanks in advance!

no network problem
unfortunately u are having the same issue as me you have to select use 2g only which is only good if you are on a network that supports 2g the nv data file become corrupt somehow and you lose 3g capability i am trying to figure away to fix the gio but to no avail right now

Actually I found out why I was having this problem recently. Turns out I have a different model of the gio (gt-5660M) . When I installed gio pro 1.4 I completely overwrote my stock firmware including the baseband so it screwed up my network settings. I had to find my stock firmware, flash it using Odin and then I just installed clockwork recovery and flashed cyanogenmod 7.2 using that. It's been fine working since then.
Thanks anyway!

well atleast your lucky i restored my original software and it has the right modem when i do a network search it picks up the 3g networks just wont connect to them

Yes, I accidentally did the same to my GT-S5660M. What I did was reflashed the stock ROM and then rooted, installed CWM recovery, and flashed a custom ROM, being careful not to override the baseband. Thankfully the ROM I flashed used CWM recovery and not Odin, and I didn't have to worry about a thing.

[Q] Can't send sms and greyed bar after cm 10.2

Hello fellow xda members. Well after searching for a solution for my for nearly a week now i figure i should post the question to see if i can get an answer. I did search around before hand and tried many solutions but to no avail.
Background, I have a sgh-t999 that's apparently unlocked since I've been using a fido sim card in it for several months now. when ever I'm running cm 10.1, I have full network access, texts, mms, 3g data, etc.Note: d2mtr is flashed to my phone and my model number gets changed to sch-r530, baseband: t999vvllh2.
After flashing to cm 10.2 RC1. d2mtr. I get stuck on the metroPcs network with out any way to manually switch network operators because the option in mobile networks is greyed out. Everything seems to work fine in terms of calls but besides being able to receive texts messages i can't send them. The signal bar seems to be empty or greyed out yet it still picks up 3g data. I've vigorously checked my apn settings to no avail. deleted the voice+ apk since I'm not in the US being in Canada and i'm all out of options right now. If i restore back to my previous backup ,everything works fine and i did check to see if I loose my imei number after flash.
I previously tried flashing d2tmo to my device but to no avail, assert errors. It would greatly be appreciated to get a response and thank you in advance for any help.
Edit: It's a sgh-t999v as printed behind the battery. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775616 hence the reason why I'm coming from ICS. Looks like I'll have to reflash using ODIN which i was trying to avoid out of fear of bricking but it seems like my only option now.

Might not be the right ROM for your phone. Or it could be buggy. I've messed around with a few and finally found a great one that seems to be working well for me. I have the d2ltetmo. I'm running Liquid Smooth ROM with 4.2.2 and TWRP 2500 recovery. The ROM roots your phone as well. Any questions feel free to ask. Hope I can help!:cyclops:
I wouldn't flash D2MTR Rom to D2TMO. Too many differing things. There's a CM for D2TMO too.
Are you sure that's a t999? The baseband looks like the one for the t999v.. And it also looks like you might be on ICS firmware.. What I suggest you do is check the model number of your phone to be sure what model you have, after that update to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 via Odin but make sure its the firmware for your model. After this flash your custom recovery, and then try flashing cm10.1 for d2tmo.. If your device bootloops after you Odin, enter recovery and do a factory reset.
Edit: check the model number by removing the battery and it will say at the back of the phone.. And the firmwares to flash in odin are in the development thread

Well after a long process of flashing stock jb then finding a proper method of flashing cwm since i had difficulties with fastboot and went with the dd if-of method using the terminal emulator. I am finally on a stable cm 10.2 rom, d2tmo, where everything seems to be working and intact. Thanks for the advice now i have the long process of restoring my apps and data and what not with titanium backup.

Network Data Hosed

I've gotten my phone into a state where I see signal bars, I can make calls and send texts, but no LTE or H+ is displayed and if I try do anything involving the internet it says there's no network connection. Wifi works just fine.
Here's how I got into the predicament. I should have learned my lesson from last time I flashed a Verizon ROM, but I didn't, and I flashed SkyNote RC9Z-3.9.1. Data works just fine in THAT ROM, but any subsequent ROM flashed after that... the network data is completely HOSED. I've tried enabling and disabling network data in settings. I've tried flashing the Devil kernel. I've tried restoring several different ROMS from nandroid backups. All restore fine and all have completely non-working network data. Last time I ran into this I had to flash the stock image in Odin to fiz the issue. This time however, that didn't work. The images flashed successfully, but upon reboot all I got was a a welcome screen bootloop of the samsung swirly logo and the T-Mobile logo.
I'm guessing this has something to do with the 4.3 bootloader? I'm downloading T889UVUCMK7_T889TMBCMK7_TMB.zip from SamMobile site and boy is it taking FOREVER! 7 hours left on the download. My thinking thoug is that If I unzip this new 4.3 firmware and flash it with Odin (or Kies if I absolutle have to) my device will start behaving again, and Network data will work, and I can go about ROM flashing and hopping again (though I'm gonna stay away from those Verizon ROMs let met tell you!).
Does anyone else have any other suggestions on what I can do to get my data back or to patch my bootloader to the 4.3 version? I was looking at this thread and wondering if it's safe to follow this procedure for patching once I have installed the 4.3 stock image:

Any help is appreciated.
ddi you check your APN settings?

Mobile data not working +STOCK ROM

Hi everyone,
I have LG G3 d855 (Europe version). I bought it online, not at any network. I had an lollipop update really fast (Poland). Yesterday I rooted the phone, it worked fine, and installed the BlissPop rom. I missed the Quick Circle option though, so today I installed the ChupaChups rom for lollipop. And now my problem: The mobile data connection is not working. I can make calls, send texts, connect via wifi, but the data connection over the network is not working at all. I went back to stock - I downloaded and installed the European version using kdz method, it didn't help, so I did it over LG Flash Tool. It still does not work. Do you have any ideas, what to do with this? I feel like I'm going to cry, I'm very nervous about it, because I use mobile data almost all the time...
Maybe there's something wrong with the modem driver? I really hope someone is able to help me. Thank you in advance!
Edit: Maybe I used the wrong stock rom? I don't even have the option to update to lollipop anymore.

Seems like a modem baseband was flashed somehow.
Flash the modem back to the correct stock version you had and it should fix the problem

Do you know where I can find those modem drivers?
Edit: I checked which version of software I should use with my IMEI no. It's 20h. Would it be enough to flash the stock rom over kdz, or do I have to find somewhere the modem driver for this version? If yes, do you have any idea where can I find it?
Thanks.

Not sure.
I have the G2 and we have these files in our Development Section where you find ROM files etc.
Should be there as flashable zip files in the same section for the G3

Ok, thanks! Last question before I do the final step - I have the ROM I am supposed to have. I rooted the phone, installed TWRP. I've also found the modem driver for my rom. And the question is - how should I flash the driver? Should I mount system or do anything apart from just installing the zip? Should I clear any cache?
@CaPlanePourMoi Wipe the modem partition in Recovery and then just flash the modem zip which will replace it. If that doesn't work, you can go back to BlissPop that includes it's own Modem and install Xposed for 5.1 Super-Alpha and the QuickCircle Mod for AOSP, all 3 of those I'm using with no issues whatsoever!
So I installed the modem driver (20h) yesterday, but it didn't help. I decided to install the BlissPop ROM, and mobile data (with LTE) works just fine. I will go back to the problem on Saturday and keep you up to date. Thanks!
Update
Update: Hey everyone - it seems like I didn't find any solution. I tried to go back to the ROM based on stock again (it was Cloudy this time), but the modem still didn't work. It was acutally working for a few seconds (I had 4G connection), but then again it was lost and it didn't connect anymore. Wifi works fine. Do you have any ideas on how I can flash the modem correctly? And how can I uninstall the modem that I have now in recovery? I didn't do that, because I cannot find this option.
Thanks in advance!

I have a very similar issue
my LG G3 is the D855 on AT&T , and was working fine on Cloudy 2.2 or 2.3 Lolipop without any issues!
All of a sudden last Friday 5/22/2015, mobile data stopped working, but WiFi is still okay.
I just did a full wipe, updated APN, and the issue still there
I haven't change any major things in probably 2 months, not sure what's going on.
Finally, contacted AT&T, and made sure that they remove from the network,a put my back(troubleshooting). As well as changing the sim, and APN, but nothing worked!!
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
UPDATE: So my last attempt, I contacted my provider AT&T, and they requested to try a default APN settings, even though what I used was working fine.
I did, and immediately my mobile data was back!!
Everything is working back as normal, and for some reason the network APN required updating
Did almost the same few days ago! I have finally solved my problem. Here's the explanation:
In Poland we had a network called "Era", a few years ago it was bought by T-Mobile. I searched the internet for T-Mobile APN settings in Poland and it didn't work. I have also found the APN settings for the old network, "Era" and surprisingly it's working. I don't know why T-Mobile settings don't work while they do for other people (and at this point I'm too afraid to ask. )
HI, i have the same problem on my d855 with wind (i'm in italy), i was rooted with custom rom and when i came back to stock i lose data connection. What i have to do? what do u mean for restore default apn? the default of my carrier? or the default for g3?

flashing issue with 9195

i bought a 2nd hand s4 mini and still currently booting as a 9195 on screen, it is most definatley this version it has the fm radio which the i understand 3g one doesn't and 4g isnt showing up in options, the phone had some locked message when i booted into dl mode which was an issue at first but then rooted and installed twrp via odin that was not working till i rooted, i flashed the "correct" 9195 cm rom from his site and got an error telling me i had the wrong phone version and needed the 3g version rom, which ive successfully flashed both cm 13 and then downgraded to 12.1 whci is working ok more or less
seems odd as the 3g version is labled as 9190...any thoughts on this as 4g isnt showing up in the options and think that to do with the rom not my sim
its only a small concern as i hardly use mobile data though id like to a little and thought about flashing the r rmx rom? to see if that works

You probably flashed the 3g version of TWRP not the LTE version
hey thanks for that i tried flashing recovery via twrp app but got stuck loading, reflashed correct version via odin and booted ok, but from memory i know i picked the same (3rd on list) clearly labled 9195, i made a backup yesterday and thinking of trying to flash lte rom now and really dont want to go thourgh setting up all the app setting etcenought o make me stick with what ive got for now, this has become quite tiresome, my back up wont be compatible if i flash a different rom though right? do you know of an app that backs up app settings?
dude you're my saviour all up and running great and used titanium for my apps, noticed in the main folder for my s4mini downloads i had a 3gtwrp there must of used that ...

Network configuration corrupt with Cyanogenmod backup.

Hello, so here is my problem. I have been using Cyanogenmod 13 on my LG G3/ls990 for months now. Recently I needed a static IP address through Sprint. When they applied the static IP to my account, I was stuck on 3G, even though I mostly have LTE. Basically what I did was use an old stock rom backup to update my PRL/Profile. This brought back my LTE service. Then I reloaded my CM13 backup. Unfortunately, at first it didn't recognize my sim card, and then it only recognized 3G. Okay, so no problem, I decided I would just go back to the stock rom and clean install a new custom rom. Unfortunately, when I went back to the stock rom, it was also stuck on 3G and this time when I tried to update the PRL/Profile it didn't work, I am guessing because it already saw these as updated. So after a few chats with Sprint's tech support, I was able to get LTE to work again. She said a particular network configuration file wasn't working right, and she did something which was suppose to fix it. As instructed, I typed in code ##72786# after she did it, and LTE worked perfectly. Stupidly, I thought it would be as simple as reloading my CM13 backup. Yet it did it again when I loaded the backup, and now I am stuck on 3G again. Before this I didn't really connect the two together. Does anyone know what exactly is happening here? Tomorrow I plan to call Sprint again, to get them to fix the file, but is there a way I can do it myself, in case I have this problem again when I install a new custom rom? For example, if I go into ##Data# will I fix things by changing a setting in there or something? I hate having to talk to Sprint every time this messes up, and yeah, I know it was stupid of me to do the same thing twice, but it was a day apart and I forgot what I had done the first time. Hopefully whomever I talk to tomorrow can figure out what the woman I spoke with did, because she definitely knew what she was doing. Thank you for all of your help!
Update: Called Sprint they reset my network and I have LTE again. I am somewhat wary of installing a new rom but would like one for resolving performance issues and wifi tether. I downloaded an unofficial Lineage 15 Rom yesterday while I was on 3g only, but it couldn't find my sim. Is there a way to backup my current network settings?
Update 2: So I just tried a fresh install of Lineage 15 and it didn't work. First it recognized cell but no data. Then I went into data settings chose carrier settings that crashed, "android.com. [something]has stopped working" , the sim was unrecognizable after that and the carrier settings weren't there any longer. I backed up my EFS partition in the stock rom before installing, but then I was stuck on 3g even despite that. I called Sprint again, and got them to reset my network settings. Don't want to keep calling them though.
Anybody here with Sprint and a static IP that can recommend a ROM that will work and not mess up my network settings? I don't care if it is Marshmallow or Nougant, I just want something that doesn't overheat my phone and which I can have native tethering.
EDIT: I was able to install Fullmics and retain my LTE.
