Has anyone had a problem with not getting lte after flashing a rom? I am in an area that has lte. My friend with stock s3 can be right next to me and he gets lte while I don't.
I had stock everything and then rooted and flashed aokp by task and ktooneszrom. Do I need to flash the different modem or something?
Thanks
Ok sorry but is it turned on in settings? If you have checked that already try flashing a TW rom, then update profile and Prl. Also key into your dialer ##72786#

What is the easiest way to go from AOKP rom to a TW based rom? What rom would you recommend?
I would need to flash the firmware, kernel, and then rom, correct? I already made a nandroid backup.
Sorry, just want to make sure. Don't want to brick my phone.

No just flash TPR it's a custom rom based on md4 it will give you options to choose kernel during install. Once booted you can do it all. You can use any firmware you want md4 is the latest and newest the new aosp roms built off of cm will need the md4 firmware.

I was running blu kuban rom and recently switched to cm10 jb hybrd. I absolutely love this rom but just having an issue with the gps. From what I read, I need to Odin back to el26/el29 modem? Can I just flash a rom with el26 and then once gps locks, just restore back up of my jb rom?

I haven't tried El29 with a JB rom, but when I was on CM9 I used it to get a GPS lock successfully. I think it would apply all the same on JB as long as the recovery is safe. I only mention El29 because I think El26 is just a stock recovery (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Just flash back to the rom of your choice when you reboot your phone after flashing El29 and it should work fine. Of course nandroid before attempting anything though.
I'm somewhat confused. El26/29 is a modem and therefore I have to use Odin right? Or are you saying I can just flash from my cm10 jb rom to any rom that has el26/29 and then once I get a gps lock, just flash my back up(cm10 jb)?

EL26 & 29 are also kernels. Most people flash using a GB recovery/kernel because it is safe. But you can use any of the current ICS kernels and be fine. I used a stock ROM and got a lock using GPS Test from the market. I then flashed paranoid android.

As Microsoftbug posted, EL26/29 is both a modem & kernel. You have the option of also using mobile odin (much better for on the go & no yellow triangle) with flashing the kernel of your choice.
Qbking77's video on using mobile odin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNAH1TQaKdc&feature=plcp
El29 direct boot: http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/tools.html (boots you to a temporary stock rom to update prl/profile/gps)
**note** I first did the temp boot via regular ODIN originally when flashing to CM9a6, so I'm not sure if you need the multiboot folder or not on your system to flash the direct boot with mODIN (would love clarification from someone who's flashed it with mODIN directly).
Hope that somewhat helps and if I posted any incorrect info, corrections would be welcomed.
Once I flash el29 in odin, how do I get out of cwm to look for a gps? Just reboot?

reboot into stock and find your GPS...then flash whatever ROM you want...I have had great success with EL26 but that is not the case for everyone.
Make sure when you get a GPS lock with a GB based rom you leave your GPS on while shutting down and then restore or reflash cm10. It works like a charm and in the future before switching roms just do that little trick.
FYI - this is a pretty known issue with quite a few threads on solutions. Can I suggest maybe in the future just doing a little more searching. There may be other solutions out there for you that dont result in reflashing roms
I did the search and was just confused about the process after flashing to El29. I rebooted, but it only rebooted to CWM. I thought Im supposed to reboot into some of stock rom? I did search, but I think Im just missing a minor step.
This morning, I did the EL29 ODIN and then flashed JB CM10(Alpha 5) rom and GPS did lock. I dont know if that's going to be a permanment thing, but it seems legit now. *fingers crossed tho
Hi, I just flashed cm10.1 and after booting it tried to activate but I got error 16, does anyone know how to fix this?
You have to call Sprint. It is a network flag that means the network thinks you have 2 phones using the same ESN in other words cloned. It could be a network tower echo.

I called and they were trying to have me check some menu by dialing ##54xxxxx# I don't really remember the code but it didn't do anything, then they wanted me to update the profile but that option isn't on the rom. Should I just tell them I have a custom rom?
You can't use dialer codes on a CM ROM. You have to be on stock or a TW ROM for them to work.

This ^^^^^. If you tell them you have a custom ROM they will not help you. You will either need to find and set up the stock ROM flash from sd card or back up your ROM and flash an MTD TW ROM like the People's ROM.

So how do other people run the rom without running into this issue?

Tower echoes are rare and once you flash back to TW and get it fixed, you should be good to flash whatever you like.

Oh ok thanks!
I bet you just have to sync your profile again. Do what Kenny suggested and backup your CM rom, flash an MTD TW rom. Then you can run update PRL and Profile.
Preferably ones that don't have a modem, baseband or kernel. So I can flash them to my i317 and still retain WiFi Calling and other T-Mobile features...
Or how is the exact process of flashing any T889 rom's to the i317. I know ya gotta reflash the modem, but what else is there? Do I also need to relash a kernel of my choosing and baseband?

All you have to do is remove Boot.img and the Modem files. I can do that for you but it is VERY risky to flash and I wouldn't do it on my phone.

Right now I'm using teshxx's latest T-Mobile stock... I might just have to hunt down some rom mods like 4 way reboot menu and 23 toggle mode etc.
Prolly gonna stick with it for awhile to see if my old disappearing text messages bug rears it's ugly head again.

Non of the Roms here have a modem. So you can flash them. I would recommend flashing a kernel after though. Having said that tweaked has an option for att set up so it'll work great and there are other users using it in att right now.

Well that TouchWiz bug just happened again... Grrrr
I was there was an S4 Port!!
Maybe I'll try MIUI, PACman and all those rom's feel like something is missing for me...
OK I got the phone flashed over to Page Plus. But for the life of me I can't get into EPST ##3282#. No matter what I do the keypad dialer will not open this menu.
YouTube & Play Store will not work over data.
I'm on Freeza stock MD4 rom . Stock phone keypad
I googled and I've read that the ###3282# code was blocked in the MD4 update. So I'm assuming that I need to flash a rom that was b4 the MD4.
Could someone please tell me what rom I'm looking for?
Or unless someone knows a different way to get into EPST?
Thanks a million

My SPH-L710 was flashed to pageplus 4 days ago. What i had to do, was go to a stock, unrooted rom, let them do the flashing process, and then restore a nandroid of a different rom. I do not suggest rooting the stock rom after the flash, because it broke my wifi. I did a factory reset using Philz CWM, i wiped the dalvik cache. I rebooted the phone, rerooted, and rebooted. Still no wifi with stock MD4 that was rooted using the GS3 all in one tool.
I restored a nandroid of The Peoples Rom, and Mother of all Roms. My calls, texts, and 3G data all work with both roms. I do not know about MMS, because i do not use MMS. TPR and MOAR are both prerooted ROMs.

If you decide to go the earlier version (before MD4) route go to Billard412's thread. One flash solution. Read the OP carefully.

This thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1904099 has a stock MD4 that also resets your flasg count. Not that the second part matters in this case. The ROM is confirmed to be stock, unrooted, and MD4 update. No surprises like messed up features or random reboots. Its a clean MD4. I would suggest making sure you have a nandroid for whatever ROM you want to use as your daily driver. So, nandroid your daily driver, go back to stock, and then restore your nandroid. Thats that i did. my talk, text, and 3G work. As far as i know, switching ROMS DOES break MMS. Of you cannot live without MMS, im afraid youll have to remain stock as far as i know. The person that flashed my GS3 wrote their own software, and has years of experience in the business. I am not saying he knows every trick, but ive been told that it is impossible to properly flash the GS3 while it has a ROM with certain custom features, or OC/UC.
Thanks, I done flashed like 4 different roms since the Page Plus flash and everything still works sms/mms/3g on each one. Her daily driver is Cm10.2 on this phone.
The guy told me if I flash a rom avoid firmware as that would wipe or corrupt the Page Plus flash. And he would charge me to have a refreshing.
He got everything flashed except he couldn't get into the ##3282# to program whatever he needed to in there.

But I get home and flash a stock unrooted rom via recovery hopefully to see if the ##3282# works if so then take it back so he can finish

Hey guys. I recently got an old Samsung Epic 4G Touch due to my HTC Evo 4G LTE breaking from water damage. I've been able to root the Galaxy and flash a version of jellybean (beanstalk). However, when I try to flash any other ROMs than this, the data doesn't work. I've tried flashing the correct modems (I think) to no avail. Any suggestions?
Can you post a screen shot of your about phone page that shows the modem. What carrier are you on?

You probably need to update your Profile and PRL. Flash back to a Touchwiz ROM to get it done... I would flash an ICS version to not worry about changing the modem.

I don't have info on FB27. If you are on Sprint it should be GB27. That is the modem. You should slow down before you brick the phone. You should have some one-click files on your PC to take your phone back to stock if need be. Also you should have a touchwiz modem as well as an ICS modem on the phone. I would suggest FL24 and GB27. A copy of EL29 direct boot. A copy of AGATs recovery. A copy of Philz touch recovery. A copy of Mobile Odin Lite. To update to the current PRL you can do as @Surj138 says just so you don't have to flash modems. I think you are on the wrong modem anyway. Flash a modem in recovery. Don't do it through Mobile Odin.

Just remember that if you want to flash a non-touchwiz JB or KK ROM, you have to be on a ICS modem (bigmike suggested FL24). If you are on touchwiz JB (stock, or one of the touchwiz custom ROMs for this phone), you can flash a JB modem (such as GB27).
I think you have to be on touchwiz to change the phone number. You have to be on touchwiz to update profile and PRL. But you can be on an ICS modem in touchwiz to do that.
If you want 4g on this phone, you have to be on touchwiz -- or at least you did, until last Monday (Nov. 3), when dastin released a version of CM11 for this phone that works with 4g. That's what I am running on my phone and it works for me.
