[Q] No service! Help! - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was running a nightly of some CM 10.0 build for months, and decided to update when CM rolled out 10.1.2. Prior to this, my phone was working normally.
For some strange reason, my phone apparently has 2 recovery environments on its, CWM and TWRP, versions unknown. Sometimes when trying to get to CWM, I get TWRP. I didn't think much of it as I had a recent CWM backup, and knew that I could get back to it eventually. In TWRP, I formatted data and cache (system is not an option to format, but I believe it does so when you flash a system zip), and ran the CM 10.1.2 update. The phone formatted, and loaded the ROM properly. Or rather, it seemed to.
When I started going through the new user ROM setup, I noticed that I had no signal. Unable to do much in a ROM that requires setup to be completed, I found my way back into CWM and restored my backup, after formatting system, data, and cache. This went fine. However, even in my restored backup, I still had no service.
This is with the phone NOT in airplane mode.
I connected the phone to QPST and QXDM, and verified that the ESN/MEID, and data profiles were still intact. They all appear correct and normal as ever.
However, the phone disagrees, as seen here. It doesn't even know enough to connect to the network to get a signal, any at all, even to call 911! (I tried. "No service".)
What the heck has happened, and how do I fix it?
Thanks!

Have you used the NS4G modem at all? If you were using it on CM10, there's your the problem. To fix this you need the patch to make CM10.1.2 NS4G compatible, or you need to flash an Epic modem back onto your phone. When do the recoveries switch, before or after the flash? Also TWRP is mainly used in custom CM based kernels such as nitest. And CM sticks with CWM. If TWRP is in your CM10 backup, and you want to keep TWRP while updating, there's a checkbox to inject TWRP into whatever you may be flashing.

Have voice service only now..
Thanks!
Ok, I was able to restore an Epic modem (FC19), but now I only have voice service. I tried 611, and got Boost customer service, as expected. A test call to a regular number also worked.
However, I have no data service, either 1X or 3G.
When I got to About Phone, Phone Status, I see these screens:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note that no IP addres is showing, indicating one symptom of no connection.
The serial number listed concerns me, as it has no bearing to either my ESN or MEID that I can tell, and when I hook the phone to QXDM, the ESN and MEID numbers that are returned are correct for my donor phone, which they were copied from.
'Service State' shows that I do have (voice) service, but 'Mobile Network State' varies between 'Connecting' and 'Disconnected'.
According to the data from the phone in QPST, all of my NAM and data profile information is correct. To verify, I restored a backup I saved back when the phone was operating properly.
So what have I missed?

This is where I can no longer help you because I've never flashed to another carrier. The only advice I can give you is to check the threads that are linked in the Alternative Carrier sticky, which is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657994

Fellow boost user here. I can verify that the serial shown on my phone with working everything seems to have no logical connection to my meid/esn.
Sorry I can't be much more help, id say check the ##debug# menu and see if aaa is authenticated, if not your data programming might need redone/retaken from the donor to your epic. I had a hard time getting everything to stick at first, havnt run into a problem like yours yet.

Thanks, I was re-checking my profiles when you replied. When I reset the HA and AAA keys, copying them over from my text file backups, the data came online.
However, it keeps bouncing between 1X and 3G. I had this problem on a short-lived Galaxy S2 (gone now), and forget how I solved it. If I recall, it was some kind of improper profile setup. *Confused* But I copied over the backup file in QPST from when the phone was running fine with full 3G.. Who knows, the backup did not solve the HA and AAA issues either. I'm tired. Hopefully it will come to me.

Ok, I *think* I have it solved. I originally used a couple of methods to get my profiles and HA/AAA keys, one posted on the forums here by Levisque, and one I found on YouTube. The YouTube method involved using CDMA WS to read 4 NV items from the donor phone containing all this info. I restored those 4 NV items on my Epic, and after temporarily having no service until I did a complete reboot, I now have functional 3G. To verify that it was up-to-date, I ran a profile update with the bootable stock FC09 ROM. Here's hoping it continues problem-free.

good to hear you got it back, even if it bounces like crazy. mine does that too when im on the stock rom, once i flash back to cm10.1 everything seems to get a little better. my og evo did the same thing, i never figured it out but all the settings were ok, maybe try to do a profile update on stock and see if it solves the problem. that should hopefully fill in the missing blanks as long as your profile 0 info is good.

Lost all signal after rooting and installing Kang rom + Franco kernel with the correct radio thing...
Not sure when the reception cut off or after what.
I did however install the wrong galaxy tab rom first and im not sure if this is when signal disappeared because i didnt notice.
I've unrooted and oem locked the phone back to stock with nothing working

just want my signal back.
doesnt even detect other signals nor my own phone number
ive tried multiple sim cards too
Phone worked earlier today(first day ive had it)
and i made a few calls etc.
I suspect it may be a sim card issue too
ive tried multiple with nothing changing - however its as if the phone doesnt even know i have my sim in there and when i check my phone status with phone number etc - nothing is there
Re-rooted the phone and tried to do everything fresh but nothing seems to work.

Gapps,
franco kernal nightly
radio maguro tdvkk6 and also tried xxkk6.
currently i unrooted it and put back the oem lock - nothing changed
I suspect its not a reception issue, perhaps a sim card reading related
tried 3 differnt sim cards - nothing changed
but when i goto "about phone" it doesnt even have my phone number in there.
Nothing at al
Its as if ive got a tiny tablet for internet wifi only...
Willing to pay money to someone who can help me fix this!
I'd bet you flashed the right rom , but for the wrong device. I had the same thing happen when I wasn't paying attention and flashed a the 10.1 tab rom.
How do i fix it?
I've unrooted and gone back to oem lock but still no avail !

Try manually selecting a mobile network in the settings. Or dial *#*#INFO#*#* in the dialer. Then click phone information. Press the : button (aka menu) to change the radio bands to USA. (or Auto)

Someone else in here flashed the Tab WiFi rom, search to see how that turned out. Think you need your EFS directory backup though or you may be sh*t out of luck.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
If you did flash a tablet rom on your phone, you don't have an EFS folder anymore. This happened a week or so to someone. I am not exactly sure how they fixed it.. but that I am sure if you do some searches you will find a way. Goodluck.
How long did it take to fix itself?
Any rom/ kernal combinations you suggest ?
Can u please elaborate?
How can i regain the efs folder?
As stated willng to pay for useful advice leading to the fix!
Search it.. someone had your exact problem.

I made the same mistake:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21897496#post21897496
After a couple of days of trying every method I could to fix it, I ended up taking a significant loss and sold it as is and picked up a subsidized verizon nexus. If I had a spare phone or didn't need to be connected 24/7, I would of spent more time trying to fix it.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but unless you're just some badass dev or have lots of time on your hands, you're pretty much screwed, for right now anyway. There are some apps in the android market that supposedly fix the issue on SG2's, but none work (yet) for the GNEX.
Why dont you just flash everything back to stock using the factory images in the link below
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
Obviously use the right cdma or gsm images based on your phone!

Been there, done that. Hopefully it'll work for him but it made no difference for me.
I am no expert and I am just throwing an idea out here, but if it is an efs backup file that you need * referring to Afro's url posted* is it not possible that someone can upload their working efs folder so you can put it in its place?
Thanks for the tips and links, going to read them inside out.
Ive got access to another galaxy nexus ->
cant i just transfer something accross ?
Perhaps download the efs from the other phone (gnex) and put it on the one mising?

No Signal??

I'm trying to help a friend out fix his Note 2. He rooted the phone and installed a custom rom, I think Jedi. After that there was no signal, just the circle with a line through it. I did search and tried flashing modem and couple other things. Nothing seems to fix it. Tried going back to stock no luck. So Im going to post what I have in the status of the phone:
Network: Unknown
Mobile Network Type: Unknown
Service State: Out Of Service
ERI: Not Available
IMIE: It's there
Any help to get the singal back???

Could be a hardware problem.... I've been having weak signal for the past month and opened my phone up about 20times... replaced a few parts and today... it complete doesn't have signal... same thing the circle with the line inside... It could be multiple parts that are defective... try to get the speaker charger part... most of the time its that the problem... if not the simcard sd card part.... or the antenna flex cable.... its super frustrating thats for sure
It was working fine, whole thing fell apart after rooting. He lost the imei but managed to get it back. I cant do dial 2263 because there is no bara at all. When i do it shows no mobile network.
Odin back to stock Find the stock tar.
Then start all over .FACTORY IMAGE TAR FILE
Download unzip place tar file in pda using Odin tool.
http://tinyw.in/Vqrj
If I'm not mistaken you can root the note 2 right from the device itself. Use the exynos abuse apk
And open app and root it works on T889. HERES THE APK AND IT ROOTS IN 5 SECONDS.

Bro i am in the same boat as you were. My service went off too. But my phone shows the proper IMEI. I tried the way you posted but it still gives me no service message. Any idea what else should i do?
I already flashed the stock ROM.
Is airplane mode on?
Did you flash this file with qpst?
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyNote2/atthowto/enabletmo3g4g/ATT_I317_AWSMOD_dumimei.qcn
I know it says for i317, but it is what I had to do to get mine back to life.
I think I'm having the same issue as the OP with my T-889V, and it's causing me some serious headaches! -_-
I was running Jedi x12. Last night I had to pop out the sim from my note to try it on another phone. Once popped back in, my phone lost all carrier connectivity. At first the signal icon looked like a "forbidden" sign (just like the op). Then, after a little while, I get service bars, but no connectivity indicator. My IMEI used to show up, but I still didn't get connected. I used my sim in a different phone as well as a different sim in my phone to rule those 2 out. As expected a different sim in mine didn't work.
Fast forward to today, I go back to stock using mobile odin. My IMEI is now unknown, obviously I can't connect to anything and on top of that the phone reboots every 1 minute or so. FML.
Did you by chance flash a different modem? When iflashed a tmobile modem on my t889v videotron phone it would do the same now I have to use tmobile modems all the time.
No, I used a T889V radio. (edited, I accidentally said rom)
But wait, there's more! Earlier I flashed some other rom I had lying around. My IMEI was back, however I was still unable to get any service. So I figured I'd try my luck with a different version of stock. At this point I just want to take the phone in, I've spent way too much time on it. So I mobile odin the rom and... I'm boot looping. I can't get into recovery at all. At least download mode still works. Knowing my luck next time I flash something I'll be needing a jig. FML x2.
Edit: I guess it's toast... even after trying desktop odin it's still bootlooping.

[Q] primoc flash gone wrong.

So I screwed up and flashed a Virgin Mobile to my phone. Lost functionality. Restored from backup, and no wifi, tried CM9, still no wifi. Back to the backup. Something is wrong with my backup... So i tried theSprint RUU via pk76diag.zip to no effect. So I restored from my wife's backup, exact same phone model and all... Now I have her phone number too.. They both ring.

Ok,so you flashed a virgin mobile rom..that means you must have flashed its boot.img also. Im guessing thats why your wifi is borked. Reflash your original rom and its working boot.img. That should fix you..unless you mean you flashed the radio hboot update. That is another story..
Edit: you're sprint? Try pulling the boot.img from the ruu,fastboot flash it,then rerun the pk76 process again. Not completely sure what you have done so just guessing in the dark.

MY original isn't working. Something went wrong with my backup, and that's why I used my wife's.
I'm actually less concerned with the wifi right now than the fact that my IEMI is wrong. I have her number and am ringing for her calls.
I'd rather fix that and have broken wifi.

how about I little more info?
what carrier did you originally have?
I might be able to help(if you haven't figured it out yet) after I get a little more information
Also, an easier way to RUU than trying PK76IMG.zip style is through fastboot.
I know how to access and change your number back to what it was if your still on the Virgin Mobile ROM.
you'll need your device's MSI so go ahead and download MSI reader from playstore and write it down(unless you have good memory lol)
Then open stock dialer and type
##786#
it will open this

Galaxy Nexus lost all signal, can see mobile network, just not connect.

My Galaxy Nexus has had no signal all day, i had signal on the way to work then have lost it sometime in the morning. I have tried my simcard in another phone and it works fine, i have tried another simcard in my Galaxy Nexus and have the same problem, the phone gets no signal what so ever, however both simcards work ok in another phone.
I can see all the mobile networks we have here in the UK, i just don't appear to be able to connect to any.

I'm on 3 UK, the phone is running the Cyanogenmod 11 M2 build.
I appear to have signal, however service status states "out of service", not sure what that means?
I have tried re starting the phone, putting it in aeroplane mode, leaving the sim / battery out for a while, re flashing the rom.
Anything else i can try?
Maybe reflash your baseband radio, or try another?
Good suggestion, even flashed the 4.3 factory image from Google and got exactly the same sadly.

I would check your IMEI to see if it has not gone to a Generic IMEI. In settings about phone...
I think that's the problem, its 004999010640000 which i just typed in to Google and appears to be a generic IMEI.
The second result is about Fixing Galaxy Nexus's IMEI Number so ill have to try and follow that when home from work.
Exact same problem!
I have the exact same problem. My Galaxy Nexus stopped connecting to 3 about 9am yesterday (22nd) and does the same thing as your phone. I'm running Android Revolution HD11 (4.3).
let me know how the IMEI reset goes. Not having a working phone is very annoying.

I have the same problem myself now. Had generic IMEI but was working fine on Vodafone today it suddenly stopped. No signal, emergency calls only. :crying: And I saw that guide also but you need to have a backup of your phones factory folder before it happened. I dont have one before it happened. Anyone who knows more let us know
already upgrade your baseband/radio?? seem auto networks setup didnt found any frequencies.

I've been doing a lot of reading today, followed by a lot of messing bout this evening and have finally managed to recover my IMEI number and get my Nexus working. I tried various things, including using the FuxkDocomoV3.1.apk as mentioned in the comments of the guide linked to above. From what i can tell you are going to need a backup of your phones /factory folder to recover sadly.
The entire contents of my /factory had been erased. I'm not 100% sure how that happened, however i believe i may have accidentally erased it when i flashed CM11 M2 the other week, i notice Clockwork recovery has a REALLY EASY way to format it in the newer versions, and no obvious way to backup /factory (from what i can see)
I'm guessing looking at /data/radio/log/nv.log i erased it when flashing the rom, as the date in the log matches when i flashed the latest clockword recovery and last formatted my phone.
Sun Jan 12 12:10:55 2014: nv data does not exist (GED)
Sun Jan 12 12:10:55 2014: nv data does not exist
Sun Jan 12 12:10:55 2014: default NV restored

As to why it worked until the 22nd with what i presume is the default IMEI i have no idea.
What i did learn is that /factory is also referred to as the EFS partition, as it happens the Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) backs up the EFS partition! I remembered i had used the TWRP recovery a long time ago back in 2012, and still had the backup i made before flashing a custom rom.
After that had restored my phone wouldn't boot the old backup i had made, so presuming it had actually restored /factory i flashed the 4.3 factory image from Google. My Nexus booted and had a phone signal after that! I checked the IMEI number and it has indeed been restored.
I then simply formatted the system partition again, flashed the CM11 M2 and restored my apps with titanium backup, i then still had my IMEI in a custom rom.
So to anyone having problems i would check your old backups and see if you have any made with TWRP, you should have a backup of the EFS (factory) partition which will get you your IMEI number back when restored.
Another possible way to recover:
I read this in another post on XDA:
By restoring your nandroid, what you have done is restored the proper files in /data/radio, which is what Android looks at for IMEI. However, there will still be nothing in /factory, so if you ever wipe or do a factory reset, your IMEI will disappear again. In order to get it to stick, I believe you still need to copy the nv_data.bin.md5 and nv_data.bin files from /data/radio to /factory.

So with that in mind if you have an older nandroid backup made with clockwork recovery you might be able to copy the relevant files from /data/radio to /factory and recover like that, or at least find out if you get your IMEI back by flashing an old backup.
I've always made what i thought was a complete backup of my phone before flashing a custom rom, however i now see this is not always the case in regards to /factory (EFS) that is something im going to keep in mind for future reference.

Hi Guys
Got a used i9250M (Canadian version), device is rooted and with TWRP installed.
I have installed several ROMS with no difference, at the moment I have flashed back the stock ROM
I have tried to flash every moded available in the modems list in (through TWRP)
https://basketbuild.com/devs/osm0sis/radios/cwm/
The original modem is i9250ugll1 (4.3.1)
I have tried several SIM cards with Wind mobile (Canada) and Rogers Canada
I checked my IMEI as suggested in this post but it matches that of the back of the phone, I did see somewhere about a bad md5 sum
Anyone has any idea as of what may be happening
Thanks in advance

[Q] I747 WIFI not working after auto/restart.

I can flash any custom ROM and everything working correctly.
WIFI connected and working too.
Doing customizations and installing few apps and after a restart (probably need restart) wifi not working.
If I leaved WIFI on state before restart it shows saved networks and won't connect.
Turning on after restart not happening. I had to go back and re-enter to WIFI menu . Then it shows"searching..." WPS, WIFI direct nothing works.
After failed scan it shows saves connections and touching on connection says" Failed to connect to WIFI network." Or WPS failed, Try again in few minutes."
Hard reset or flashing again will workout, but one restart and it all messed up. And tried without doing nothing and restart, it's same.
I collected few logs and attached. And link to short video that exactly happening.
Tried every other ROM and kernels, same result. On stock, it's perfectly fine and working. Aftre bootloader update(yeah, thought it would help) same thing happens. But not with stock ROM; KNOX fear eh. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Living through past two weeks for solution and I'm ended up here.

Rooted
MJB: both bootloader and modem
Beanstalk: current rom
Here how I solved the problem.
First download SQLite debugger from store
From app, navigate to Setting storage & open Setting.db
Click on Global, Name.
From the list choose WiFI Display on.
Click on UPDATE? > value... > 0 from the list or enter value.
If choose to enter the value manually it's same thing, type 0 where cursor blink.
Then click on arrow head on top right so the new popup saying Commit the change and confirm it.
Restart the device and you're good to go with WiFi again without a problem.

trying wiping everything go back to stock 4.3 then reload a 4.4 kitkat rom (A DIFFERENT ROM) and see if that helps
I tried different ROMs already. No luck there.
Definitely looking for stock now.
For the reason of Knox I'm not sure what stock ROM needed to downloaded on my current state.

Seems like no body knows the reason. And answer for this trouble. Thanks anyway.
I am in the exact same boat. I installed the cyanogenmod v11, with kernal 3.4.74-cyanogenmod-gd298491. Wiped data, restored rom, etc. I've reset this phone so many times, I can't remember what all I've done. I did see a thread where users bring up a terminal emulator and type in some lines of commands, and wifi works, until the do a restart. I tried that and it didnt work for me. Luckily I have unlimited data, so I can download over LTE network. I just got a text from ATT saying I am pushing 5GB, and that I may be throttled soon. [email protected]%& you technology!

I couldn't find such thread. Still I'm trying myself figuring out what's going on. Hope myself to find that post soon.
For anyone interested in, another 2 logs here.
Sorry, I couldn't hunt anything down at work....no wifi on my phone....
Here is the thread I was reading before. Again, its worked for some, but not others. Good luck!

You're on 4.3 correct? I had a problem similar to this with wifi I used a different kernel and it fixed it.
Confirm 4.3 and I will give you a link to the one I used.

I'd never at official 4.3. Only through customs. Last stock was 4.1.2
So what is your bootloader version? 4.3 will run on mj2 and mjb one will allow you to use Odin in the future and the other will brick your phone if you use Odin. If you have root access download root checker from play store it will show you which one you have.

I got my wifi working. I am rooted, and I am using CWM. I downloaded the Aroma ROM from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252932) , and installed it. It tooks multiple tries. It said the phone may sit on the Samsung logo for a long time, so I gave it an hour, and i reset my phone and tried a different combination. If you go this route, you will see a ton of different ways you can install this ROM, which is nice. I tried 3 different kernal options, and finally my phone booted up, and the WIFI worked, and stayed on.

In OP I stated all thing. It's JB. Ya, big deal but RIFF stands beside me.

I also flashed that. Seriously; there's more to do with custom ROM than stock. True, problems are coming but that's the reason why I'm here. Even with this wifi problem, I'm still on custom.

Guys I was having this issue, and I found a fix that worked for me.
The Wifi on my last rom was working fine, as was on my current rom, until I switched on a setting, "Enable wireless display". It was the only common thread between the two, and as soon as I turned it on, I lost Wifi and got the "WPS failed" message when refreshing networks.
Once I turned off "Enable wireless display" (and rebooted with fixing persmissions, not sure if that's a necessary step), I had working Wifi again.
Settings > Display > Cast Screen > uncheck "Enable wireless display"
Hope this helps some of you.
I found a solution. I'll post it when I'm free
