No Signals! Help!! - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hi,
By mistake I wrote some NV items(related to provisioning data) but after that my phone is getting no signals. Also the PRL is coming as default and not with any PRL version no.
I have flashed many ODIN files but its not getting any signals.
Can anyone help to rectify the issue?
(few screenshots attached for your reference)

Can you rewrite them? Also, you might try a one click restore.

^ Yes,
Flashed this "SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-OneClick" but no luck

How did you change the NV items?

Through CDMA WS. Actually to provision data on my network (India), we have to flash the NV file which writes the appropriate items to the phone. In this case, I flashed a wrong file and it resulted in modem goes busted.

Then just flash the correct file. Seems like a possible fix. Did you also try to re-flash the modem?

That did the trick! Additionally I have ticked on EFS clear and believe it cleared all the junk data out of it!
Thanks

Phone stuck in airplane mode

So I flashed pa2.53 and the 4.2 gapps and got signal, then I tried the nexus4g modem still no signal. Then tried to odin back to stock now my phone is stuck in airplane mode. I've flashed other roms before and lost the modem but was always able to flash back or odin another modem. Is there anyway I can fix this besides flashing back to stock and going to sprint?

Reflash PA, NS4G AIO, and gapps again. Only way I could fix it 2 weeks ago.
You may have to flash the AIO twice to get it to stick.

I've tried that and has worked in the past. This is different though now its stuck in flight/airplane mode. I'm hoping its not a hardware issue

Are you wiping before the reflash or dirty flashing?
If wiping, looks like an Odin back to stock might be the only solution.

check /system/lib and delete libsec-40.so
check build prop and make sure epic rill is "#"ed out and crespo ril is in.
i am assuming you want crespo 4g modem. its not likely you will have to odin.
I've done clean installs more than once and odin with victory pit and d700-fco9 tar which always did the trick before. None of that is working. Although I still get wifi.

Clean installs won't help. The only way you can get out of it is by clearing the NvRam. Download the respective modem.bin file of the current stock Rom you are on, b. Flash it using old Odin1.8* with Phone EFS clear and auto reboot ticked. Update your PRL and Nam if you have a backup. That should get your phone working.

After dealing with this same issue and the nexus patch (which I stopped using for better compatibility), just ODIN the FC09 modem.bin. It can be found among the sticky threads.

? im guessing you don't want my help, suite yourself.
I currently have this problem as well. I'm stuck using the nexus modem. I did odin back to stock and was able to get back on the stock modem BUT when I try to flash CM7 or CM9 it flashes it but brings up "no service". Sooooo what's the secret...???? Please help me...

Either Odin with the EFS clear then flash the Epic modem or there is some kernel jumping game someone mentioned.

Yep I did that. I odin and cleared EFS. (As long as I'm on stock, Im back on the FC09 modem). So once I verified that, I flashed CM7 and it says no service. I must be missing a step or something. Is there a step by step on how to get back to epic modem from a nexus modem? If not, maybe we should think about creating one.

Did you verify service on stock? It needs to go through hands-free activation.

Option 1: type ##8778# and connect to PC to flash PRL with QPST
Option 2:
WARNING: FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING FROM YOUR EPIC (but should fix it)
-Pull the phone's battery and put it back in.
-slide out the keyboard and hold 1 while holding the power button
-it should now be in download mode.
Hook it up to ODIN and flash a stock rom/tar. That will have a PRL included in it (not the most current) and will flash it.
Tried that but the phone has no prl and the radio is off and qpst shows no phone on the com port it is a deactivated phone with a bad esn so I was going to get it ready for a cricket flash but the phone has been restored back to stock and wiped clean like never been activated so EVERYTHING is gone except for the min and meid. No prl no, service radio off mobile data disconnected, and the msl has been changed to 000000. I have done Odin to stock fc09 and tried everything but got in touch with sprint. If cricket actives it should it turn on the service radio so I can get a prl back on phone or is the phone screwed.

I thought the prl was hard written in the phone not in any rom or stock software What does Efs do

Essentially yes, it's actually a d2can but they are exactly the same phone. It is perfectly safe to use anything for d2att, you may have to change your apn to get data to work properly.

Just enter in your carrier's apn(s) and you're all set. In settings > more > mobile networks > apns
Really easy, use this app to back it up. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore
Follow the instructions on the Google play description to install as system app using titanium. Then just restore after your done flashing your new Rom.

What about the modems? Each time I attempt to flash a stock i747M rom on my i747, I get a SBL2 error message.

Modems do differ.
However, the physical radio chip that's inside either phone is exactly the same.
So just flash a modem using CWM/TWRP from the thread below that corresponds to your needs.

Are you saying that it's not possible to do the flash of the entire ROM through ODIN and then flash the correct modem through CWM.

What I want to know about is the ENTIRE ROM, including the modem?
I just want to know why I'm getting the SBL2 error message when I use ODIN to do it.
Because your trying to flash the wrong stock Rom. Flash a stock Rom for the I747m and it should work. If you are trying to flash the correct stock Rom and get that error, I'm at a loss atm.

you're getting a bootloader error so i would back off trying to flash a different model's firmware otherwise you will continue to get this message.

Therefore the two devices are not the same (hardware wise).
I thought these devices came with unlocked bootloaders from factory (unlike the SGS2).
They are. If they weren't, root and customization would be almost impossible. The bootloader error doesn't signify a different hardware, just software implementation by the carrier. Have you applied the Google wallet fix, or anything that would change the device info on the build.drop?

Some ROMs (such as CyanogenMod) already have the APNs for all carriers. It automatically chooses which APNs based on what network you are using.

sounds like a good idea.. i'll be rooting my phone tomorrow.. i'm thinking about using the radio modem from ICS version 4.0.4 released in October. how can i do that?
Once rooted, just flash any of the modems available for your model in cwm or twrp recovery.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I know this isn't directly related to solving the problem, but before installing a different modem make sure it is a compatible modem with your carrier and phone model. Also, be sure to back up your efs because I did this before and my efs files got corrupted and I lost signal from my phone.

Omg nv data gone!!

I've never ever thought this could or would happen ... and im very aware of efs baxkup procedure i just didnt do it to this phone I have flashed 100times nevr lost my imei info.
Least I think that's what happened I am on metro t999n s3
I tried to flash the tmo 4.3 leak version knox free by doc holiday77 and when it booted had no signal said insert sim. So I nandroid back to stock SIM STILL NOT DETECTED.
What happened what can I do.
Is there a fix
I think that 4.3 rom is the cause of this
Sent from my SGH-T999N using xda app-developers app
Also sound dissapeard
Could this have to do with flashing the 4.3 mj4 modem when I flashed the leak it said to flash it in the rom install log.
Shouldn't a nandroid restore even restore nvdata efs all that ?
I've restored backup 3 times before from 4.3 to 4.1.2 and never had this issue until this last time I tried to flash 4.3 deodoxed and then restore to 4.1.2 sound gone
Data gone signal gone No Sim inserted Error

Being aware of EFS backup routines and not employing at least one of the options is negligent. terminal > su > reboot nvbackup. How hard is that?
Now that you are no longer on the leak, you should reflash the old modem (LJC/MD5/whatever you were using).
