[Q] CM 10.1 stable / SG3 SIM boot loop - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 ATT
Problem: Following message after flashing CM 10.1
SIM Card Added
Restart your device to access the mobile network
Restart button
Background:
upgraded baseband TO root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3.tar.md5 FROM root69.stock_ATT_I747UCALG1.tar
flashed clockworkmod after tarring latest file from CWM website
Flashing method:
From CWM recovery, I use the following options:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Mounts and storage-> format: data, system, cache
Advanced-> wipe dalvik cache
Install from zip - > rom (CM 10.1)
Install from zip - > addons (GAPPS)
Advanced - > wipe dalvik cache
Advanced - > fix permissions
Reboot
Notes:
flashing liquidsmooth 2.7 -- same SIM boot loop occurs (uses new CM branch?)
flashing carbonrom 1.7 -- does not have any SIM reboot problems (uses old CM branch?)
CM 10.1 stable shows battery with a circle continuously; does not show charging, etc. like before.
Another BIG issue is with the networks where, when searching for networks:
Carbonrom shows carriers -- with names such as ATT, T-MO, etc
Liquidsmooth and CM 10.1 stable shows some numbers like
23015
21646
23066
for carriers
dosen't this look like a bug for JIRA??? Has to be, especially since RC(4?) had an issue with network usage calculation?
By the way, clicking the back button at the prompt goes away and I can make and receive calls.
Does going back to stock (rooted or not?) SIM lock the phone again?

Have you changed sim cards and/or do a sim card unlocking?

Phone SIM unlocked
No, I haven't changed the SIM card. I did not have problems using CM10 RC2 or the M's. Also, the phone is SIM unlocked; I called the carrier and got the unlock code.

Once your phone is SIM unlocked it will remain that way regardless of what ROM you install. Verify MD5 of your ROM and gapps downloads. If good do full wipe and try again. Could be botched install.

MD5 verification / LOGCAT attached
Thank you all for trying to help. Please see LOGCAT attached.
I understand that ROMs do not SIM lock the phone. However, I not only did a ROM upgrade but a baseband update too. Anyhow, looks like the SIM is going to stay unlocked.
MD5s for both CM 10.1 stable and GAPPS for 10.1 match.
Installation has worked out fine. Liquidsmooth and CM shows the errors. CarbonRom does not. Wonder why no one else is having this issue?
Everytime I reboot, I get that prompt to restart, although after hitting the back button it goes away and I can use the phone fine. Maybe, I just have to learn to live with it until a major change is made.

[SOLVED]
The problem has disappeared.
This happened after several reboots and after doing I did a data restore with mybackup root.
I think the main thing that solved the problem was an automatic network registration.... this was a work around provided by someone. The phone gave a message that it registered sucessfully. Previous it kept erroring out.
The network operators still show up as random 5 digit numbers, but I can live with that.
Thank you all!

[Q] How to enable network data after installing Cyanogenmod CM11 M7?

I tried flashing a custom ROM for the first time last night and so far I am really loving it. The only problem is, after flashing the CM11 M7 ROM it wont access any data over the cell network. I did figure out that if using Titanium Backup I restore my stock ROMs 4.3 data only from the Phone/Messaging Storage (SMS/MMS/APN) then reboot the network data does work. However, this causes the SMS to cease functioning. As soon as any app (default messenger, hangouts, 2-3 others I tried from store) tries to open it immediately crashes. Interestingly, it also will not allow me to restore my SMS records using Super Backup at this point. If I go back into Titanium backup then wipe the data for this process then the SMS starts working again, but all the old messages have been cleared, and as soon as I restart the phone the Network data is not working again.
Any ideas on what to do? I am wondering if maybe I need to adjust something in my APN profile, though I have absolutely no idea where I would get the information to do this.
This is what I am working with:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 i747 (AT&T) -- [though currently I am using a TIGO sim card in Guatemala, wonder if this could have anything to do with it? was not a problem prior to switching the ROM though]
ROM: cm-11-20140608-SNAPSHOT-M7-d2lte.zip , the Cyanogenmod CM11 Snapshot lte release from yesterday
Android Version: 4.4.2
Baseband Version: I747UCUEMJB
Kernel Version: 3.4.91-cyanogenmod-g9b9605b8 [email protected] #1
Anyways, only having one or the other of my network data vs sms working is not really an option for me, so need to figure something out.
Thanks!

I apologize in advanced for not answering your question.
Is your issue that you cannot even get a signal with CM installed? I am also having the same issue.
Did your phone get signal/mobile network with the stock ROM? I am unable to find out if mine will work right now because it would take me a few days to download the stock ROM image...
Will be following this thread...
Mike
Have you checked that the APN on your phone is the right one for your carrier? Google search apn tigo guatemala galaxy s3 Many useful results will come up.
Ok here is how this played out. I did just need to reset then re enter the apn info for tigo in Guatemala. I actually managed to pull this info out of my pre flash backup from when I was using the stock Rom, then wipe the data for the process mentioned. This restored sms functionality and I then was able to manually enter the apn info (if anyone needs the Guatemala tigo apn info just post here and I can grab it when I am next at my cpu). I find it interesting that the apn info was automatically present and correct when I was using the stock Rom, but when I flashed cm11 over it was not there.
Just arrived back in the US and popped in my AT&T SIM card, everything worked fine right off the bat with it.
In answer to your question, after flashing cm11 I did have signal, but only for calls and sms. The data component of the network was not recognized.

[Q] I installed a new ROM, now I have no cell service.

So the warranty on my SGH-I747m just expired, so today I decided to install a custom ROM. I installed CWM, made a backup, then flashed the latest d2lte nightly of CarbonRom. Now I have no cell service, and my APN menu is blank. If I try to enter in my APN settings manually and tap 'save', it doesn't save - the list remains blank. I tried downloading Tweakker's APN app, and it says I have no SIM card!
I know my SIM card works perfectly fine, because I was making calls and texts and had internet just hours before I decided to install this ROM. So what the heck is going on here?! This would be the third Android device I have installed a custom ROM onto, all on the same carrier, and none have given me this trouble before.
Is your bootloader and modem up to date?

I have a problem with my s3 i've flashed several different ROMS and this one is no different...for some reason the APN's for my particular model, (unlocked at&t i747) converted to tmobile) never shows up, how can I fix this...I've tried putting in the APN but it never saves
How to Flash
Hello,
I'd like to try the LiquidSmooth ROM but I'm not sure how to go about flashing it. Does the ROM come with the kernel or will I have to flash that separately? I've flashed other ROMs before but I'd like to make sure I do this correctly to avoid bricking my phone. Also I'm not sure which ROM is the correct one. I just want the most stable one. Is drdevs.com/devs/teamliquid/Official/3.1/S3_Unified/) the correct one? (sorry it won't let me post links)
My information:
Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 (AT&T)
Currently running CyanogenMod11 20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-dtle
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband: I747UCUEMJB
Kernel: 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-g0c6f5bf
I am currently using TWRP recovery
So I'm planning on doing this the following step. Is this correct? :
1. factory reset, wipe data, system, cache, format data
2. adb push the rom and gapps
3. flash the rom and gapps
4. wipe dalvik + cache
5. reboot
Is that correct?
Also I read that I'm supposed to backup my IMEI/EFS/NV. How do I go about going this? I tried copying my efs folder from Root Browser but it says access denied.
No Mobile Data on SGH-I747 LiquidSmooth 3.2 Milestone
I have previously been using LS (LS-KK-v3.2-2014-08-06-d2lte.zip) on my GS3 without issues. I then tried updating to the LS 10-27-2014 nightly (LS-KK-v3.2-2014-10-27-d2lte.zip), the LS Milestone (LS-KK-MileStone-3.2-d2lte.zip), and the LS 10-5-2014 nightly (LS-KK-v3.2-2014-10-05-d2lte.zip). On all of these newer editions, the phone is unable to use mobile data, but calling/texting works fine. On the status bar, the mobile signal shows strong, but does not show "LTE".
When I'm having the issue, Under Settings -> About Phone: Mobile Network type is LTE. Service state is Voice/Data in/service. Mobile network state is Disconnected. Mobile Phone Number is Unknown.
I tried adding the AT&T APN without success. Wifi works fine as well, but no mobile data connection can be established. I tried flashing and reflashing these roms multiple times without success.
When I flash back to LS-KK-v3.2-2014-08-06-d2lte.zip I am able to use mobile data fine. Can anyone provide some guidance as to what would cause this?
You may need a kk bootloader and modem for the latest ls.

I'm running the latest version 10-27, leankernel 9.17, NE4 bootloader. Everything is working fine, no problems with lte or camera, however I can't receive phone calls. I can make a call but whenever someone tries to call me they say the phone will ring once or twice then goes directly to voicemail. Am I missing something in the settings? This was a clean install, as always.

Audio not working after flashing multiple 4.4 and 4.2 roms
Hello, I use a Samsung galaxy s3 i747 at&t. I have rooted and flashed a couple of custom roms(liquidsmooth, slimkat, beanstalk, etc) but I did notice that I couldn't use my earpiece with it. Anytime I play a song on my phone with any music app, and I insert my headphones, it losses audio and even when I unplug the earpiece no sound comes out of the phone speaker again until I have rebooted the phone. And after a reboot, If I try the earpiece again, I end up with the same result. I don't know what to do? Please any useful solution would be highly appreciated because I have no rom on it now...
Notification Sound setting is always on silent
I have been running the LS rom for about a month now and really like it. I have the latest 3.2 milestone and running the 9.17 kernel. The only issue that i can't seem to get around is my notification sounds for SMS messages (default messenger or hangouts) always shows 'silent' even though when I try to choose a sound one is selected. I actually this is affecting all app notifications, ie google mail, but i don't care as much about thos.e. Has anyone else have this issue? I have done all the normal things like reinstalling the ROM, clearing cache, reset, etc. Please let me know what else i can check. I have searched the thread and xda but can't seem to find anything specific to this issue recently.
No data connection, authentication problem for wifi
Just flashed this rom the other day and it boots up and is functional but will not connect to data nor wifi. It consistently says no service and when I try to connect to wifi it says there is an authentication problem. I came from an older liquid smooth rom. I have a cricket sim card in my at&t s3, not sure if that matters

[Q] [Virgin Mobile] Galaxy S3 Lte Connection on CM 12

I recently rooted my s3, and flashed the Cyanogenmod 12.1-20150527-NIGHTLY-d2spr ROM.
3G and lower works great, but I am unable to connect to the LTE network. I initially believed it was an APN problem, and flashed this: (android forums -> virgin-mobile-mod-universal-lte-virgin-mobile-apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298), without success. I tried updating/adding apns manually, but still am unable to connect to 4G.
My model is SPH-L710, and current baseband is L710VPUCNDC.
Let me know if you have any advice/solutions!

To get LTE, clean flash (wipe cache, system, and data on TWRP or use the "clean to install new ROM" option on PhilZ) the ROM, Gapps, and the APN fix and then boot up. As soon as your phone finishes booting up, turn it off, go into recovery, and dirty flash (don't wipe anything) the ROM and Gapps.
I used this on AICP 9.0 which is based on CM12.1, and I've heard this procedure works on CM12.1 and any CM12.1 based ROM.

Help! insert sim card error after flashing a Custom Rom

Hello, i've installed [ROM][6.0.1][Weekly][Uber-5.4][d2att] ResurrectionRemix v5.7.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/development/rom-resurrectionremix-v5-7-2-t3431137
Custom Rom is working fine. But my sim card cannot be detected by my gs3 at&t. the phone is network unlocked.
Weird thing is i can receive calls and text messages but i can't send a text or make a call.
Can't turn on mobile data, can't access mobile network, No GPS/mobile data.
if you could be so kind to help me i'd very much appreciate it. Thanks in advance
Is the phone running the latest bootloader and modem?
Same here!! | Solution:
Flash this
wipe cache, Dalvik Cache and reboot
It worked for me! Try and tell me if it works you
can you also let me know even if it doesn't work :3
Be careful when flashing a bootloader. If the bootloader on the phone is newer than the bootloader being flashed, it could brick the phone.
