No service after kitkat - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello I'm new to the galaxy note 2 and just rooted it today. After the root everything worked fine but I've flashed both Omnirom and Gummy and they both work great except for one thing, my service. I cant send messages, call or use my data. there are no reception bars in my notification panel or anything. I can switch back to non 4.4 roms and receive service again. One post said he fixed the problem by flashing the stock 4.3 rom then reflashing the 4.4, even flashed the devil kernel, but theres no luck for me so far. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
update: FIXED through this method:

[Q] GNEX loosing connection after 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 - cause or coincidence?

My GNex (yakju) is losing data connection so often now since I received 4.2.0 it's not even funny. I updated to 4.2.1 and problem is still there. The only way to get connection back is to toggle airplane mode a few times or reboot.
Background: I had this problem when I purchased the phone which was on 4.0.1 originally. I eventually found out about this site and updated to 4.1.1 using mskip's GNex TOOLKIT. Miracle, no more data connection loss! I could now fully enjoy the GNex and has been functioning flawlessly for several months. When 4.1.2 came out, I updated OTA and phone was still working perfectly.
Now 4.2.0 came out, received it OTA - horror: my connection loss problems are worse than ever So I though OK I will just go back to 4.1.2, but problem remains. OK then I'll go back to 4.1.1, but problem remains! Reset factory settings, flashed phone several more times re-trying 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.0, 4.2.1... no success. Checked APN, reset APN as per provider settings (Telus in Canada) but without success.
My connection now drops all the time. I miss about 90% of my calls, notifications, etc. Google search finds several people with similar problems and indicate some GNex have hardware problems and the solution is to ask Samsung for an exchange until you get a good one but often takes 3-4-5 phone swaps before getting a good one.
I just find it is a very strange coincidence that my phone "broke" immediately after updating to 4.2.0. Anyone has any ideas how I could solve this problem (other than going to Samsung for a swap because this is a nightmare road I'd which to avoid)?
Had a similar issue lost service altogether, used mskips gnex toolkit to wipe all then download and flash stock google image, immediately fixed issue so did one click root busybox etc and regained root then flashed a custom rom, no dramas since and smooth as butter.
Hope this helps am somewhat of a noob so dont know tech stuff but toolkit did the job and fixed it, its a software bug methinks, many thanks to mskip and xda

I already re-flashed my phone countless times with with the latest gnex toolkit trying various ROM setup such as 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.0, 4.2.1 with no success. Then I tried flashing several different recent or older radios (UGKL1, UGLC1, UGLH1, XXLF1, XXLH1) with again no success. Now pretty much anytime I wake my phone, my connection is grayed out whichever ROM (stock) or radio I tried.
I haven't tried is trying all radios on older ROMs yet and I only tried the different radios on 4.2.1. Then again I feel I shouldn't have to do all this and think its getting ridiculous, I mean the latest build should be reliable.

Rooted, flashed CM11, not receiving texts

Hi all,
I recently rooted my SPH-l710 that was updated to 4.3 using this method: http://honai-android.blogspot.com/2013/11/how-to-root-galaxy-s3-sprint-sph-l710.html
Everything worked well and then I flashed the CM11 ROM (snapshot) and again, everything was working well, I could make calls, send and receive text messages and had mobile data. This afternoon, I found out that I had not been receiving text messages, I could send them and people received them, but when they replied, they never came) through on my end. I rebooted, nothing changed, then I did a factory data reset, again, same issue. Then I flashed this stock ROM (deodexed): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541900 and still had the issue. After installing the stock ROM, I updated the PRL profile and I'm still having the issue. At this point, I have no idea what else I can do the fix this issue and I'm hoping someone here can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Did u try reflashing the modem? If that doesn't work its something on sprints end.

I'm shocked that root method even worked for you...did you update your profile as well and then reboot the phone when on stock rom? might wanna get back on the stock rom and try...other things you may wanna try when all else fails, reflash back to completely stock 4.3 which you can do by using my guide in my sig for bricked phones, which you're gonna need to do if you have to go to sprint for it, they won't touch it rooted
I did not try flashing modem, I was under the impression that the modem deals with data and since I had no problems there I didn't bother with it. I did try rebooting after going back to stock rom, but that didn't help. When I first installed cm11 I was having problems with getting Google Voice to work, but I restored the back up a CM 11 when I first installed it and tried google voice again. This time it works and I'm able to send and receive text messages and access voicemail through the app so as long as I don't come across any more issues I'm happy with how it is now. I appreciate all the pointers and if I ever have to go back to stock, I'll refer to this post, thanks.

[Q] Galaxy S4 lost messaging/calling but internet works. Anyone else have this issue?

This has randomly happened three times to me so far on different roms. I searched Google and XDA forums and maybe i am searching for the wrong terms so i will ask here.
I had Hyperdrive installed on my phone for 3 weeks with no problem, i was texting last night no problem. In the morning i woke up and could not send/recieve messages or calls but i could surf the web, check facebook, and everything. This was on and off of wifi. Reboot several times, Full wipe and restored to a previous nandroid, same problem. Another full wipe and reinstalled hyperdrive from scratch, same problem. Finally spoke with Tmobile, no help. Grabbed Carbon rom and then everything worked fine! Why?! Does anyone know why that happens? Same thing happend with the 4.4 Google edition rom. Worked for days then no network. Went back to carbon and it worked fine.
TLDR:Hyperdrive worked great for a week then lost all mobile except internet. Full wipe several times and problem persisted. Changed to Carbon Rom and it worked fine
Used Google Edition 4.4 for days and then it also lost all mobile except internet. Full wipe several times and problem persisted. Changed to Carbon Rom and it worked fine.
What is your modem?
Baseband version shows
M919UVUAMDL
Update it
You can grab the new nh7 modem from Shinyside in development, I ran with my MDL rom no problem.
Pp.
I updated to the NB4 and it seems to be working again. Ill see in a few days if the problem comes back. Its weird that it works great and then out of nowhere it acts up. Thank you for your help!
I will try the nh7 modem from Shinyside if i have the problems again. Or i will just stick with Carbon Rom, it works great but i wanted to try something different.
Nh7 modem has improved my signal all around, I noticed it on my previous rom and going to nh7 stock rom has been a good move for now.
Pp.
So it happened again with the updated modem. After 2 weeks of using Hyperdrive i lost service again. Reboot, wiped and used a backup. Still no service. Wiped and re-installed from scratch, still no service. Updated to the newer version of Hyperdrive, still no service. Wiped and reloaded Carbon and i have service again. I do not get it.
You might have to update your bootloader

Ditto, for Serio, that has been a common issue between KK roms and latest KK firmware.
Go for the nh7 bootloader , don't stress knox.

Problems with audio in calls from handset since changing to 5.0gpe

sorry if this is abit long winded,
hey everyone, not sure whats going on here. this is the tmob variant but i had moved over to a gt-i9505 rom dandroids stock gpe 5.0 back almost a month ago, this was upgraded from jamals 4.4.4 gpe which was working great. i installed the googly 1.2.3d kernel and that was also working well. i noticed that i forgot to fully reset all my storage and noticed jamal brought out a 5.0 rom so i swaped to that and wiped everything about a week ago and at first didint notice any issues.
then i recived a call and answered it on the handset and for the first few mins it was working fine all of a sudden something glitched and i had no audio like the call droped i hung up called back no audio. reset the phone same thing. just a day before this happened i updated the kernel to 1.2.5 googly for gpe5, so i figure this is it so i reflash and reset storage and no change. oddly this entire time there have been no problems with calls when using my bluetooth headset.
long story short i have installed and wiped one about 3 different roms including the dandroid that was working ok. i am now all the way back to the 4.4.4 jamal rom that i was on before i started and the problem is persisting. when i call someone the other party hears a high pitch squealing sound but only via the handset the "ok google" is working fine. i have not restored the nandroid backup yet.
baseband is m919uvufnb4
i have the current version of the twrp as what i have been installing everything from.
happy to provide more info. i know im still on the pre knox bootloader
and when i get home im going to try my wife sim see if that changes anything.
Update
Wife's sim changed nothing
Also wanted to say that I also read about a apn reset trick that was supposed to help. I did fix it one time but it recurred again and and since stopped working
Having that same issue gpe 9505 5.0 no audio in calls unless I'm using Bluetooth no handset no speaker
You guys Ned to update your bootloader and everything will be fixed.
You can only get so far with ancient bootloaders before the wheels come off.
Pp.
How do you do that
You need to Odin the latest version NK2, you can find it in general section, ShinySide has a mega link to download firmware.
Follow instructions and you will have a S4 that works properly.
You can use chainfire's auto root in original development to root.

Need help on Flashing a recovery for sprint L520

Someone showed me the thread with the 12.1 cm rom and the .img for the recovery is it okay if I use flashify to put the recovery on my phone instead of using odin after rooting? Or does someone have a .tar recovery for the L520 in a drop box somewhere? also do I need to update my firmware before flashing a rom? I think I'm on firmware na7 on 4.2.2
it's fine, trust me use flashify. Odin doesn't flash .img files. No, you don't need to update your firmware, it's going to be flashed over anyways.
Seemed to work fine. That cm 12.1 rom still working okay for you?
There's a few little annoyances but it's working okay otherwise. I get an exclamation point by my bars sometimes and have to reset the apn to fix it. GPS has some issues so it's become more a roadmap than actual guidance and I can't send mms but that's not really an issue as I have unlimited data and can just facebook messenger as a workaround. I hope that these issues get fixed but I understand that alot of 5.1 roms have issues with the exclamation point thing and even some unrooted 5.1 phones have the problem. It would be nice to see a fix for these issues but I don't see anyone making any more roms for this phone and the guy that made this rom seems to have landed a job with cyanogenmod and is too busy to update this rom. What a shame but at least I have 5.1 now.
Hmm I suppose I'll stay at 4.2.2 till I feel like flashing 12.1 thanks for all the info. You don't have any overheating issues or random restarts right? Also how does the GPS not work well?
No overheating or random restarts. All things considered its a pretty smooth rom if just a little incomplete. I only tried using the GPS once and it came up with my location and the route for where I needed to go but when i was driving along the GLS was not updating my location. It may have been just a one time thing, idk, I havent needed to use GPS since.
Cool do you know a way to go back to stock if I don't like the cm 12.1 rom?
