If you're rooted, just make a Nandroid Backup and restore the phone and see if that fixes it.
That's a test directory.
As mentioned, you can flash a Nandroid to a time prior to having to the issue if you are Rooted.
If not, Factory Reset from the S4.
Sounds like you installed something or changed something.
If you're rooted and on a 4.2.2. CM 10.1 rom that is a common bug, if you're on stock I would send that s4 back and get another one! I will of course try a factory reset first, see if it helps =/
i'm on stock untouched non rooted 4.2.2 and factory reset didn't helped tried that out eighter
could't it be a hardware problem ? like any non original parts? or the main chip is somewhere demaged?
Might be hardware or network.
Do you have a different phone you can try your SIM card in?
If the problem follows the SIM it is a T-Mobile issue.

i tried only german eplus
but it is a good idea i try with t-mobile sim
when this is this problem can i just flash other rom
or what is my next step?
i mean can i flash a rom from intr s4 on this t-mobile s4?
Probably not.
I would try flashing back to the exact stock software for the model you have if you have to too make sure everything matches.

Some reported the same problems and they call T-mobile to have their line "refresh". Said it solved his problems.

My wife and I are stock and we are having issues receiving calls. Is this a known issue with this phone?
If you are 100% stock, you may want to call tmo.
Have you done a hard reset? Does calling over wifi work?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA
yeah we are 100% stock. It's hard to tell if we miss a call on or off of wifi unless they leave a voice message as some calls go straight to voicemail. I'll try a hard reset. My wife tried calling me six times and I didn't even get a missed call. Same thing when my mom called me.

Go to your local T-Mobile store and they should replace the phone or the sim card.
If the phone is the problem just hope you are under warranty, you should be.
Hoped I you out!

try flashing the stock kid radio in my previous post
what radio are you running?
It is interesting that in the last week there are at least three threads dealing with missed calls. Is there something going on in common? I have found that I was only missing certain calls from certain numbers. 100% reproducible. If I call my cell from my work phone AND the work # is stored in my contacts, then I do not get the call. It goes straight to voicemail. But if I remove the number, I get the call. Add the number back and I miss the call.

Well I havent rooted the phone yet - as if this issue continues, i dont want to void the warranty as I can try for a replacement. I am not sure once I root - can I do something to make it look clean and not void warranty!
If there is any suggestions - I will definitely try it out

*No signal strength after multiple flashes and recoveries I have flashed multiple Touchwiz and Aosp Roms as well as restored the original stock firmware. (JediX20 and JediMaster + PacMan 4.2.2 and 4.3 + Stock Firmware Samsung 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 and even updated to 4.3 and downgraded back to 4.1.2) Nothing seems to work sometimes when I boot up ill have signal and my phone will work. Sometimes ill make a call while I have 3 signal bars or more and the phone will just be in dialing mode and after 10 seconds or so my signal will cut off and the call will disconnect saying there is no signal or "out of service area" and as soon as it hangs up my service bars reappear. And then there are times where the phone will show no signal strength at all for the whole time. In all instances data will still work. I have flashed and recovered through odin multiple times but I know the issue lies within the software I just dont know where. EFS maybe? I even thought it was in factory mode and downloaded titanium backup and deleted every "Factory Test Mode" I saw. Still no luck and im bout to the point im about to chunk it. Any ideas of why it is doing this? Any help would be much appreciated. A phone aint nothing if the basic functions of call text and web doesnt work.*I have also tried flashing K7 MA4 J2 and UCAMH3 Modems. None seem to help the problem.

Possible on the EFS...but that file is really an all or nothing deal...
It is possible to have a bad antenna or radio chip....but I do agree with you on a software fix first...to include a custom APN setup with experimented entries...
I've also heard that arbitrarily bouncing between 4.1 and 4.3 roms does alter the partition structure slightly ...but after looking into the EFS on both frameworks....I've noticed they have the same size and the information is identical...
I wish that I had more help for you....g

Are you really on straightalk like your profile says? Have you checked your APNs? You've been bouncing back and forth I'm wondering what's in there. Sounds like something in there is not happy.

My apns are fine and have always worked. The problem is not with that but rather signal strength, being able to make and receive calls. Messaging and data work fine.

My phone has always worked flawlessly until now. The signal can be normal but when I make a call it rings forever. .. the signal drops..my phone says it's out of service area and hangs up. .. and soon as it hangs up the signal bars reappear. .. in that specific order. It had never done that before until recently

Greg,
Do you know where I can get details about the antenna issues. I searched several forums that pointed to the usb flex. I just replaced mine and still have the same problem of weak signal and constant signal drops.

Thanks man ill try this out. Isnt there a way to just wipe the efs, system,data, dalvick, cache in TWRP and start fresh?
Do "NOT" wipe your EFS FOLDER...and do "NOT " re-partition your device in Odin either...
Simply use TWRP and wipe system ...data....dalvik...and cache...
Also ....you can wipe your internal storage as well if your important items are stored on the external SD....(photo's etc.)..
And as for the antenna question ...just Google it....g

I was poking around in my efs folder and went to Factory Apps and found a factory mode script. I opened it up in RB text editor and found that the script said on so I assume that it being on must have had something to do with the call feature. I changed the script from on to off and saved it. Soon after I tried making a bunch of calls its been working flawlessly but in exchange the lockscreen will not show up nor does the option to reboot/power off/airplaine mode shows up. Im going to Keep testing the calls in the meantime.

Im experiencing a problem nearly identical to yours. I have an i317 unlocked using a Tmobile SIM. Everything was working fine until I flashed a rom (I believe I accidentally flashed a rom with a Tmobile radio which boot looped the phone). After fixing the bootloop and flashing the cyanogen mod rom, I started experiencing the frequently dropped signal.
I have downgraded and gone back to stock several times which has not fixed the problem
After reading this thread I changed the factory mode script to off, but it doesn't seem to have affected the radio performance.
I remember reading that the partition could possibly be corrupted in a bad flash. What is the best way to reformat the partion?
Any help greatly appreciated
Did you reboot the phone afterwards?

Yea still no luck. But after about 3 days and a crapload of flashes I ended up flashing jedix20 and added the alexander theme..which suprised the hell out of me...the stock jedi had less signal bars like 1 or 2. I flashed alexander theme and my bars are from 2-4 with 4 being the best. Everything seems to be working. I had also did a test and made sure that my Network in setting was registered to the HOME network. That may have played a factor as to why the network wouldnt work even with signal bars. I flashed JediMasterX2 and ran across an issue like that. I flashed the att carrier files and it didnt work. Then I flashed the 7105 version and checked the Network operators and searched for a network. It pulled up AT&T and Verizon and when I chose AT&T and it registered my phone everything started working. I dont really like messing with the system files but I investigated the Jedimaster zip and looked under Jedi> carrier> att> and opened up the cscversion.txt under rb text editor and it showed an incorrect version. I317ATTAMA4....which im assuming was supposed to be I317ATTUCAMA4. Also under the SW Configuration. Xml the csc version was still the same. AMA4 it may be nothing but I would have thought it would have needed to match up. Ill have to look into it some more. I really want to update but hell idk. Might be done trying to flash roms on this device if everything works right

Would the phone having factory test and factory mode on the phone affect it any. I seem to have 2 factory mode apps with one being 560kb and the other 84kb. I don't know if those could affect the signal performance

got that same problem recently i tried all roms i could find
then i retraced my steps before the problem i realized it started when i first opened my phone it was the sim/sd card tray and also the screw next to it
without the housing calls work with it the calls have problems apparently closing the phone sometimes the holes for the screw are not aligned
tested a few times on two different n7100s and it works
fix tested on phones which have been previously opened
I can call people and receive calls on my phone but no one can hear me and I can't hear anyone. I don't even hear a tone when it's dialing sometimes. I'll call someone and they'll answer and it will just be silent and vice versa on both ends of the call, I'll receive a call and it will be totally silent. I have already gone thru all the troubleshooting steps I can think of even going as far as to have my carrier send me another model of the same phone and getting a new sim card they have made many tickets on this issue and have deemed its not network related. Below I have attached 3 log cats of the issue. Sorry they were to big to upload to XDA directly. So here are 3 links to the downloads.The issue is happening on stock non rooted knox isn't tripped

What ROM are you using?
What mods are you using..
Please be more specific..
I was using the Hulk Kernel on the Google Play Edition ROM..
and I was playing with the Faux Sound mod, and it killed all my sound..
Uninstalling the mod corrected my sound issues.. It may not be your issue, but that was my example..
I suggest flashing to STOCK..
BTW those links are ENCRYPTED!
If you can use a video call app like Tango or Skype and you have sound it will most likely be the sound chip not connecting to the modem and using WiFi for voice /video transmission.
Time for a replacement phone.

I'm expwriencing the same issue. I did some search for older threads and found a couple of aolutions. One guys solved the problem by changing motherboard from a used ebay phone. Another guys changed the sim card reader. I was running CM13 when this happened flashed stock latest stock firmware with odin and issue still persists, is definately a hardware problem. Everything began after droping my phone at work.
