[Q] I9192 stuck on Baseband Version XXUAMF7

I got my S4 Mini I9192 in December, but I can't remember the version it came with. Immediately after getting the phone, I updated to XXUAMF7, and rooted the phone using the tutorial by cheatman, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368561
Everything was fine, but trying to find some info on the possible culprit for the battery standby drain, I found somewhere that it could be a problem with the Russian region UAMF7 rom. So, I downloaded, and installed the Indian DDUAMJ2 rom, rooting using arco68's files from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494435, but didn't have wifi, so I then flashed MJNazari's kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2431953.
Now everything's fine, wifi works, still don't know about the battery drain, but information in the "About device" worries me.
The build number is fine, JDQ39.I9192DDUAMJ2, but the Baseband version is still showing I9192XXUAMF7 !?
Is this normal, and have I messed something up somewhere?

Can anybody who's upgraded from rooted XXUAMF7 to anything newer tell me what their "About device" says?

Modem did not upgrade
Either flash whole rom AGAIN or only flash modem
This happens when u have "Custom" status in download mode.
U can extract modem from stock MJ2 rom tar and md5 it and reflash it
Here is the modem i extracted from MJ2 flash it with Odin CP option

Thank you very much!
I had tried flashing the entire ROM twice, even did a factory reset, wiping the whole lot of everything I had on the device
BTW, on a technical note, where does that "Custom" status come from? Rootkit? Kernel?

Well, depends
For example if u take a stock rom from sammobile , unpack it and delete bootloader stuff when u`ll flash it status will go "custom" even if u did not modify other stuff
If u flash a custom kernel / recovery status will go custom
If u delete some "bloat" status will become custom
Many things will trigger that status
Good part is , u can come back to official if u flash a stock unmodified rom from sammobile and factory reset your phone after
Take care, sometimes u must flash it twice or more because modem does not get flashed
Btw, u are lucky u still don`t have Knox bootloader do not flash a stock rom from sammobile that ends with MK4 MK5 ML1 ML2 ML4 NA2 etc without modifying and deleting Knox bootloader

Thanks a lot for the info! The Custom status was then probably caused by installing CWM and removing all of Samsung's apps after rooting...

According to the screenshots you uploaded, you are not on MDL firmware. In fact, you are on MDB firmware. MDB was released when the T-Mobile Galaxy S4 came out. Use Odin and flash the MDL firmware (use that same restore thread again, but do NOT download the link that says Stock Tar, instead download UVUAMDL Official TAR). Flashing this should restore the baseband version from MK2 to MDL.

I'm not sure. I actually used that tutorial to upgrade my baseband and it worked just fine. Another person also had this issue as well. I told them that it could have something to do with the custom binary counter. Apparently, the phone prevents you from flashing unsigned items if the counter is high. You can reset it with an app called TriangleAway.

IT WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After flashing to stock I have no data/cell phone reception

I used the mobile Odin method of flashing back and I also used triangle away before I did this if it's worth mentioning. So after struggling with getting back to stock all day I finally make it happen I put my SIM card back in and notice I am getting no cell phone reception. WiFi works but without WiFi I can't do anything data wise. I contacted t-mobile support and they found no issues with the SIM card
Anyone have ideas on what I can do to fix this?

Anyone? I'm kind of stuck here

What Firmware version did you just flash ? Do you see the same value under Settings > About > Baseband ?
What firmware did you have before using Mobile Odin ?

Ok so more info, I used this unroot method and followed it very close:
http://www.androidrootz.com/2012/10/how-to-unroot-samsung-galaxy-s3-no.html
I'm guessing this is what is causing the problem, I flashed the modem from UVDMD5. Only the modem I could not get anything else flash on odin so it was only the modem. So if I had to guess its a problem of getting the right modem back on the phone.
(On a side note, will I ever be able to get my phone back to 100% stock/able to get official updates,ect? Is it even possible?)
Edit: As far as the baseband goes it says "unknown".

I have no idea what that version is. I Suspect its the dreaded UVUEMJC. You will need to flash UVUEMJC Modem for T999 from this thread.
EDIT- Yes its indeed possible to go back to complete stock in order to receive Stock updates. After your IMEI is restored, you can use KIES to go back to complete stock. Please realize, you can also get latest update from Sammobile.com and flash it via Odin

Dont know if you remember but I am the guy you helped in the other thread get unrooted. I was the one having trouble with it getting stuck at "system" when I was trying to get back to stock with the firmware from sammobile.com. Do you think it would be ok to try it again now that I'm on stock?

Don't recall the conversation. But there is a easier way to unroot by removing SuperSU after you get your IMEI back.

This thread in question: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2691892
Also so how do I go about flashing a different modem without being rooted? Do I just do it through odin like I did before? Or will I need to reroot/get a custom recovery?

If you don't have custom Recovery, then use mobile Odin to flash the Modem.
Better yet, please flash UVUEMJC Firmware via Odin again.

In other words stuck in the same boat as the old thread.

Please post the complete log data from the second image of Root66.
You don't flash a modem that way. It can brick.

[Q] i9195 upgrade from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2

Hi guys! I have the italian firmware for the i9195, i9195XXUBML4. I have alredy tripped my knox, so i don't care about the warranty...
If i flash the GT-I9195XXUCNH5_R1 deodexed from @ladislav.heller, will i face problem with modem or something else? I already have some experience with my ex s advance and with my current tablet ( tab2) wich are both with cyano, so i can understand something
I cannot try it because if i flash something i want to be sure that it is compatible with my phone, i wouldn't brick it
Sorry for the bad english xD

@Alecotro Before flashing that ROM you must upgrade your modem to cnh5. Links for that modem are on the ROM's thread.
When u download that modem file extract it and flash it with ODIN as PDA / AP. Repeat and verify if your modem changed. Check baseband in settings>about phone for confirmation. Once u are done upgrading the modem u can flash the ROM via custom recovery.
Without modem u will face connectivity issues and force closes. I am using that ROM and it is perfect.

Thank you very much! Will the different modem have problem italian carrier like wind (don't know if you know it)? Cause with my s advance i always had the same baseband whatever the rom i flashed...
And, in the future, if I flash something like cyano, will i have to switch back to my old modem?

If I flash a firmware different from the ITV one, will it be different with signal of Italian carriers?

baseband imei unknown - tried virtually every modem out there - help

Hi everyone,
I know this problem is well known and solved many times already, but I'm not being able to solve it by myself. This is why I'm posting this thread as a last resort to try and get some help, just in case i missed something..
My phone is currently with unknown baseband and IMEI on stock 4.4.2 flashed via kies recovery. If I try to flash any 4.4.4 port ROM the phone locks up seconds after boot, it will only work with stock rom. I already tried a few modems i found on another threads but no success.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

from sammobile, download newest firmware for your region and unpack it from stock rom and then pack it with 7zip to tar file and flash it with Odin.
you need sboot and modem

Isn't that a bit pointless? Maybe I'm missing the point, but if I already have flashed latest firmwares from both sammobile and kies, it kind of makes the point that modem and bootloader files from sammobile don't solve the problem, right?
Thanks.

Well truly doesnt seem pointless
I got my baseband resolved (Previously showed 'Unknown') by flashing pure stock rom (got from SamMobile) THROUGH ODIN so might be there is a point.
Try stock rom flashing from odin as according to me stock rom has everything in it radio(Baseband),boot(efs), system, etc etc

The unknown baseband and imei can be due to a modem and bootloader mismatch.
To confirm the bootloader and modem on the phone, install the Samsung Phone Info app from the play store to confirm the version.
