[Q] Sound and Wifi won't work

Hi,
I've flashed PA many times before on my Nexus 4, and I was using PA 3.99 before I decided to try using CM11 (cause kitkat). Well, CM11 worked fine, but I wanted to go back to PA, however, when I tried flashing the rom, it took much longer than usual, and then when my phone finally booted up, neither the sound nor the wifi would work. I first noticed this when the phone was setting up, as the second thing a new android phone asks you to do is to turn on your wifi. My phone just said "turing on wifi" for a good five minutes until I skipped it. Once I finally finished setting the phone up, I tried turing up the sound but it wouldn't work. Of course, I can't really use my phone if the sound won't work at all, so I decided to flash CM11 again, and then everything was working properly. Since then I've tried PA and CM again, AOKP, and PAC rom, but CM is the only one that worked for my phone. The sound and wifi didn't work on any of the other three roms. If anybody could help, that'd be great!! Otherwise I'll have to stick to CM11 even though I'd like to go back to PA.
SOLUTION FOUND
For anyone with a similar issue: My problem was that I was running CM11, which uses android 4.4, so it seemed that the issue was caused by flashing to a rom that used an earlier version of android. I solved the problem by unrooting my phone and reverting back to 4.2. Then I rooted the device again and flashed PA 3.99, then everything was fine.

[Q] Moble data works with stock rom, but not custom

I'm having a lot of trouble with my S2 right now. I've been running CM10 since I got it with no trouble at all. I updated to 11 when it came out, again with no problems. Basically what happened is I flashed the stock ROM so I could use the video camera, then just restored back to CM through recovery when I was done. I did that two or three times, then suddenly I have no mobile data on any custom ROM, OR on the stock ROM I made a backup for. Voice and text works fine, just no data, either 3G or 4G.
I eventually un-rooted and went completely back to stock, and that got data working. I rooted and got recovery installed, and everything's still working fine. But, no matter if I try to install Cyanogen fresh, or try to restore a backup, I don't get mobile data. If I restore a backup of the last stock ROM, data works fine. From inside the stock rom, I did a master reset and updated PRL and profile.
Does anyone have a clue as to what I'm doing wrong?

Okay, I noticed that my MEID and some other parameters were 'unknown', which according to Google can mean a bad modem. So I flashed a new one, and all is well.

[Q] Wifi won't turn on - rooted, Liquidsmooth v3.2 ROM

Hello,
My Note 2 was stock, and I decided to root it because I was having issues with the screen turning on and wifi sometimes not connecting. I used Odin to flash TWRP, installed a number of ROMs including Cyanogen and Liquidsmooth (currently on Liquidsmooth 3.2), and everything works fine now except that Wifi won't turn on.
I read that Kit Kat has caused wifi issues for some people, so I even downgraded to Jelly Bean (CM 10.2), but that did not seem to help. Does anyone know of any fixes for this or alternatively, any Lollipop ROMs that wouldn't have this problem?
[One thing I just noticed when I was double checking that I was on 4.4.4 was that the "About" menu shows my model number as GT-N7105 even though I downloaded the ROM for the SGH-t889. If that means I installed the wrong ROM, I can restore my backup of my stock ROM and start again if needed]
Thanks in advance.

Solved!
Just wanted to post that I figured out that if I install Liquidsmooth alone first, without adding google apps, the wifi worked. In fact, I may have just been stupid to install google apps since it appears that Liquidsmooth already had google apps...
But in any case, the wifi stopped working after I rebooted, so I installed Jedi ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-tmobile/development/rom-jedi-source-project-4-4-4-t2895948, booted up, then went to recovery and installed the google apps for Jedi from the same link, and everything has been working great since then.
Hope this info is helpful.

frustrating situation

I have tried several rom, 4.4.4 Note4 ported and the 5.1.x roms. I get 1 out of 2 problems when I install either version.
1. If I install 4.4.4 Note4 ported roms, mobile data works fine but I get intermittent SD card errors.
2. If I install 5.1.x roms, I do not get mobile data but do not get SD card errors.
I really want to use 5.1.x but I cannot find a fix for the mobile data.
I backed up EFS and Modem in TWRP, installed 5.1.x, then restored EFS/Modem but nothing works.
Of course, I checked the APN and set up automatically, I selected and rebooted. Still mobile doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Experimenting with ROMs

I'm looking for an S7E/N5 hybrid with mostly everything working. Coming from a N3, this would be a Dark Lord ROM with fingerprint and NFC.
I started with a stock BPA1 phone which I unlocked/rooted. I wanted to upgrade to a true 6.0.1 ROM which meant upgrading firmware. I started with Odin flashing a tar.md5 of the CPD1 firmware - bad idea. It failed and messed up the bootloader. So broke phone.
I was able to Odin the stock BPA1_BPA1 and the BPA1_CPD1 firmwares. In each case though, it was very hard to obtain root. If it rebooted or locked up for any reason, I had to go back and reflash the stock firmware, wipe and reinstall kingoroot. Otherwise I was stuck in a bootloop with DL Mode saying I was locked. This is what lead me to fix it. I noticed after the first flash of samsung_unlock_n4-fix (root took that time and no crashes) it would bootloop. I went into DL Mode to reflash firmware but it finally showed Developer Mode. I gave it a shot and flashed twrp without issue. Instead of having to install the n4-fix twice or go through multiple roots, turns out that it took just took once to reclaim Dev Mode.
(I had been thinking that Dev Mode was wiped out with aboot when flashing the stock BPA1. Guess not)
So the bootloop I figured was due to a kernel issue. With Dev Mode, I Odin flashed TWRP. I formatted my sdcard and put a kernel on it, using twrp to flash it. And tada, working phone. This worked on both the BPA1_BPA1 and the BPA1_CPD1. So I was able to load the 6.0.1 firmware. It took so long to do this though that I didn't get a chance to try more than a few roms.
From a brief visit to these ROMs, I am still looking for something that has everything:
From T-Mobile:
Maximum OvrDrive 6.0.1 MM v.8 - Great ROM but I didn't have wifi afterloading it. I'm sure I was missing something to get it to work but I realized this was not an S7E port either.
Maximum OvrDrive S7 v3.7 - It's a 5.1.1. ROM and works well but is missing AOD, fingerprint and most importantly hotspot.
General forum:
Dr.Ketan 6.1.1 - could not get this to load. It bootlooped after flashing the M5 rom (910g?), kernel, datafix and supersu as per instructon. Will revisit.
Verizon forum:
Kyubi Note 5 Port - One of the first ROM I tried and it is amazing. This is a very stable ROM with almost all the bells and whistles. I wouldn't even look at another ROM except it doesn't offer AOD and a few minor tweaks (haven't figured out how to skin my status bar clock for example). I posted in the thread a fix for MMS btw. It's a 5.1.1 ROM of course and lacks in a few ways.
I'm still looking for a perfect ROM for me. Will update the list as I try them.

I flashed the Noble ROM yesterday. So far, so good.

If you get time this rom by @aukhan and the Emotriod team is great. It's a pure note 4 with edge features, but I can't remember if mobile hotspot works or not. I'm using the Nameless Rom at the moment and really enjoying it as well. On the Nameless Rom mobile hot spot works, I'll check to see if fingerprint works, everything else as far know works well. One more option is Kurama Rom, I got it to boot with data/mobile/wifi, but to be honest I didn't stick with it too long because as soon as I got it set up, the Emotriod Rom caught my eye and I just had to have it.

Hahaha....I've been on Noble for a few weeks now, and just flashed hsbadrs cm13 7.17. release for a change. Noble is a beautiful rom, and I themed it with Marshmallow dark theme from the Samsung theme store. CM13 is just slightly more fluid, and used to be my favorite, Noble is by far the most stable s7 port on my phone.
Sent from my SM-N910V using XDA-Developers mobile app

Dr Ketan rom you need to flash rom then m5 fix right away let it boot (can take up to 11 minutes no longer average 5-6) dont sign into anything ( google, samsung, etc.) then go back into recovery and flash louforgiveno's data fix for your bootloader and ketan rom. then reboot. It has to be a clean flash in my experience. It will take about 5 minutes to get data signal but it comes. The roaming indicator off text stays on lock screen it does not mean you are roaming though (check in about device), there is a way to get rid of it but i didn't doesnt bother me.

Does anyone know if there is a way to add Wifi calling to any of the N910F roms?

UPDATE: I went back to Ketans Rom but on the BPA1 bl and it works very nicely. I had to utilize my MMS fix to get the native app to send mms. I'm currently working on finding an Xposed framework that boots. Neither Wanam mod's or the stock seem to fit. Ketens is so far the most kitted out N5/S7E rom I've seen, with even a cobbled together version of AOD. Anyone have any luck with Xposed running the H Vitamin kernel? I'm thinking of switching to some other kernel to see how it works.

Just curious what kernel and data fix are you using with the emotroid rom. I have tried Lous MMs fix v4 and also the 3b version but MMS is all not working properly.

Is there anything wrong with the mm bootloader? Seems like a lot of ppl Including me is having trouble flashing roms on it. So we Convert back to the lollipop bootloader... How can we get roms to work on the mm bootloader. I can't find any reason to this.
