Data drops occasionally - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

My data still drops on the new 4.4.2 kitkat update on m919. Like always airplane mode solves the problem. Is there a fix for this?

That does not resolve the problem, the problem is the 4.4.2 kitkat and 4.3, Im having that signal issue also, and I have tried other firmwares. I also have a Note 2 and when it runs 4.1.1, this version has no issue. The new firmware with the modem inside it, its what causing it the problem. Your best bet is, as I have posted in a few section is for someone to make a back up copy of the QCN, of the original stock M919V modem file QCN, its very easy to make a backup of the QCN, with that we can reflash it in QSPST and make the AWS work, I need someone here with a videotron s4 model M919V to make a backup copy of the QCN file so we can try it out, if not we need to wait till they release a newer version. My model is the S4 but my model is i337M, but you can flash the M919V firmware because its the same modem inside it, NE1.

stock firmware

I have the sgh-i317 unlocked and working on tmobile. I wanted to flash the stock 4.1.2 firmware from tmobile, but of course I can't use the tmobile modem on the att n2 unless I want bootloops and/or loss of imei. I can unzip the tmobile stock firmware file to look and modify the content folders. So my questions is, Can I just remove the tmobile modem.bin file from the tmobile 4.1.2 zip folder and then go ahead and flash away with odin. Or better yet, can I replace the tmobile 4.1.2 modem.bin file with the att MC3 modem.bin file and flash the whole thing together in Odin. Or is my best path to just flash the whole tmobile 4.1.2 firmware (including the modem) and then right away flash the att MC3 modem and then do the reboot? Any direction and help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
... Do you only have Odin to work with?
... Are you rooted with custom recovery?
If you have a recovery, I'd find a stock cwm/twrp image for T-Mobile, then restore my modem.

[Q] Downgraded from 4.3 to 4.1.2, no signals issue

Hi. Sorry for asking similar question. Actually I sold my note 2 to someone. At that time i was using 4.3 test build, he downgraded it to 4.1.2 and now signals won't appear/ no network issue. My guess is that EFS folder has been corrupted (no backup). So should I flash a clean 4.1.2 from odin or try flashing any 4.3 to make it work?
Try to flash MJ5,MJ2 Modem.
I don't remember the test build but try all 4.3 Modems.
If you have EFS backup then restore.
Already moved bck to 4.1.2 so why flash the 4.3 modem?

With the mj5 modem, the phone can read the new path for the efs file. He should try it. Nothing to lose.
Correct me if i'm wrong

[Q] Basebands on 4.3+

Hey guys,
So I odin'd the the latest stock T999 firmware UVUEMJC. Everything went smooth but when I had installed other ROMs like CM11 or Carbon 4.3.1, I'm not able use any other basebands except for UVUEMJC. It won't connect to data at all if I use another baseband. Am I only able to use the UVUEMJC baseband or did I forget to do something?
Check your APN. If its set to epc.t-mobile.com.
Someone else recently reported the same case. Possibly it does not let you flash another modem.

So when I would flash the UVUEMJC modem, all the APN's are there but when I flash any others they're all gone.
In that case use APN Backup & Restore to make a backup while on UVUEMJC.

[Q] Convert N900T to N9005

Can I convert my N900T into a complete N9005..??
ROM, Kernel, Baseband (except imei )
will it support.. As I heard early there are N9005 roms that can be used on N900T. But need N900T kernel and some fix.. Without them is there any way?? Like Download stock N9005 and JUST install the rom using ODIN.. I never tried before.. And I don't want to brick my devise
Is there any one who tried it already???

There is no problem or issue in flashing a twrp/cwm flashable N9005 custom or stock rom.
Be sure to do a clean and full wipe before flashing the twrp/cwm compatible zip file rom.
After you flash the N9005 custom/stock zip file rom you will need to download and flash
the "wifi-nfc-bluetooth" fix file using twrp/cwm recovery to flash.
Here is the direct download link for the fix zip file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/Needed_Files_BT_WIFI_NFC_Flashable.zip
After the fix file is flashed you will be good to go.
The only thing you will find missing is Tmobile's "wifi calling" feature.
Everything else will/should work fine without issues.
Note: Do NOT try Odin flashing the official stock N9005 firmware!!!!!
Note: Do NOT Odin flash any N9005 modem/baseband or bootloaders.
The Tmobile baseband/modem and bootloader will work fine with N9005
twrp/cwm flashable zip file roms.
Good luck!

Thank you,
Well I actually I need this conversion because I need 3G video calling menu instead of wifi calling or voice mail button on dialer.
Because Im in a different country which can use 3G video Call (support by network)
And in this country 4G LTE only work with Band 3 (1800Mhz) supported handsets instead of North American Band 2 (1700Mhz) handsets
Here, this country its support 3G video calling and 4G LTE on N9005 (this has Band 3 support).. But not with my N900T (no band 3 support band 2, 4, 17 only)..
Thats why Im asking this (convert N900T into N9005) because these two phone have same hardware instead of different software.
And could you tell what are the reasons that Baseband/modem of N9005 not to install on N900T??
will it causes to bootloop or signal issue or something else?

The reason NOT to install baseband/modem is because every region uses
a different baseband. If you are able to make and receive calls and messages
properly right now then it means that your N9005 baseband is the proper one.
I am not sure about bootlooping with the wrong baseband but I would be that
you would not have any signal if you were to odin flash a Tmobile N900T
baseband version.
If you change to a Tmobile N900T baseband then most likely you will
not be able to make and receive calls and texting will not send/receive
messages and any other region specific application in your country will
not work properly .
The good news is that none of the twrp/cwm flashable zip file roms
contain any basebands/modems which means that most any N9005
twrp/cwm flashable rom should work fine after flashing it to a Tmobile
N900T phone. (after flashing the wifi/nfc/bluetooth fix zip file.)
So in other words regardless of which twrp/cwm flashable zip file rom
you flash it will never change your existing baseband/modem.
Good luck!

You didn't exactly answer the question. You spoke about using ODIN to add the N900T bootloader and modem to the N9005 (I don't know why anyone would want to do that for any reason that gaining WiFi calling). The original poster need this to be done the other way around by placing the N9005 bootloader and modem on the N900T. I'm in the same boat as the original poster, where I have a N900T, but T-Mobile isn't my carrier and I want to get the full N9005 modem and bootloader so that I can flash fully stock international ROMs. I'm not interested in flashable zips as they rob me of having the full experience. So far, I've flashed the N9005 SYSTEM partition onto my N900T using mobile ODIN and used the WiFi/BT fix, but I still feel that the phone can be fully converted.
I attempted to force a complete update using the desktop version of ODIN, and it produced an error when flashing "aboot", letting me know that it wouldn't simply ignore the mis-matched bootloaders.

yes that is correct!
I don't know how i stumbled onto this thread and i know it's been A while since anyone posted but you cannot flash n9005 base onto the n900t. You can however flash something like bobcat rom which will give you the video calling features as well as the other bells and whistles of an international rom. I have been running n9005 Roms for a while because they actually make my daily phone run a lot better.
What I want to know is if it is the MODEM and Bootloader that is different between the two?

I would have to guess yes, they start with the same Samsung base and then put in their modem, bootloader, all the way up to their bloatware. O would guess at the heart of the matter of you wiped the phone completely and started over that you could put the n9005 firmware on. (I'm not a dev though, but i try to learn when i have time)

Hi guys. I have a problem like that. I have SM-N9005 Note 3. I wanna put N9005 stock rom it but Odin shows me error (aboot fail) . My phone 's baseband version is n900t but model version is n9005. So i dont put n9005 stock rom. The reason is baseband version ?
From where I will get Cwm/twrp flashable n9005 ROM
Hello, I am using a N900T model and u want to convert it to N9005.. I read all those quires in this and I don't know from where I'll get that custom recovery flashable ROM.. Please provide me the link of that.. I tried flashing N9005 stock ROM using Odin.. But it failed..
Please help..
Thank you..
If you just want a debloated KitKat Touchwiz interface, then you would stick with your stock N900T ROM and use mobile ODIN or desktop ODIN to flash only the N9005 system partition.

This is easily done by downloading it from: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and copy it to your external card
You would then download and install Mobile ODIN from the Google Play store. Using this, you would select only the SYSTEM partition after selecting the file from the external card.
It makes sense to wait for the official T-Mobile lollipop ROM that's been released and debloat it once rooted.
I'll be doing this shortly when I download it.
so, the main topic
is not possible to write only n9005 modem to the n900t?
I have cyanogenmod 12.1 and this converted my phone into a n9005
the wifi works until phone lose the signal, when signal is back, wifi stop working and seeing any wifi spot
I read something about a WIFI NFC fix, but am not sure if this would be necessary on the cm 12.1, but I will give it a try.
I noticed this tmobile phone modem, wont work very stable on 2gonly networks like here in my country (CUba), i was planning to write the n9005 modem only to the n900t and see if phone would become more stable, but after reading this thread, I think I will not succed.
what would happen if I write n9005 QCN file?
Well topic was dead for some time now. I hope someone can bring some clarity. I got N900T, but would like to convert to 9005.
Can someone explain steps that I should take to do that. Is N900T has same hardware as 9005? Does that mean that LTE bands are locked by software?

[Modem][Baseband]4.4.2 Modems for I747/I747M

WARNING!!!!
Do not flash a 4.4.2 modem if you are running 4.3 firmware (bootloaders)!!!!
This will cause a permanent hard-brick!!! There is no fix!!!​
The only reason anyone should need to flash one of these is if they had flashed a 4.3 or earlier modem for whatever reason. Once updated to 4.4.2 firmware, ONLY that matching modem will work. Flashing anything else will result in no signal and most likely an "Unknown" baseband and IMEI. If you flashed an older modem, you will need to flash back to the 4.4.2 one and these will all come back.
This has happened a number of times already, and continues to happen still. So I figured I would put them in a separate thread to make them easier to find.
Flash from the recovery of your choice, or Mobile Odin. The updater-script for these includes an assert that should prevent flashing on anything that does not have the correct bootloader.
Full Disclosure: I do not have an I747 or I747M, and as such, I am unable to test any of these. I have full confidence they will work as expected though. (I have been doing the modems for the T999 for a couple of years now). Still, you should know they are currently untested.

These modems will only work if you have updated to the latest 4.4.2 base firmware and bootloaders. The ROM you are running is irrelevant. If everything is currently working, you have no need for these.

Hello Doc, I have an issue trying to upload the modem on my sgh i747 because when I downloaded the CWM modem gives me Error 7 and dont let me upload the modem actually I have I747UCUEMJB and 4.4.4 slimkat, but my bigger problem is the imei, baseband null. helpme please all the night I wastryng many solutions and I am so tired now.. thanks
You probably never updated your firmware to 4.4.2.
To know for sure open terminal emulator and enter this.
getprop ro.bootloader
If it says MJB, you haven't updated your firmware yet and flashing this modem would permanently break your phone. If it is MJB, flash the same firmware via Odin and factory reset. That often fixes the imei problem. If it does not, pm me for further help with it. Can't post those instructions here.

Thanks for keeping the support for this phone going. I have the latest bootloader ..uemk5 for my Rogers sghI747m.
I tried to flash this and got a status 7.
I have been using the ..UEND3 Modem up till now.
You need to update first or this modem would permanently brick your device. MK5 is a 4.3 build. I think the latest Rogers is NF2. You cannot flash this modem unless you've already updated. And then you won't need this. I released these because some mistakenly flash the older 4.3 modems after updating and find it won't work, so they needed a way back.

No Cell data after root and new rom and recovery.
Hi,
This is a repost from the S3 help forum as the OP here seems very knowledgeable about modems and bootloaders. Excuse the redundancy.
I was given a used ATT I747 s3 which had stock 4.3 , modem/bootloader mjb, and knox. I rooted, removed knox and installed slim 4.4.4 rom, lean 4.4.4 kernel and latest philz recovery. All running ok
including cell calls to/from phone, mms, apps and wifi data. Same modem/bootloader (MJB), IMEI accurate after upgrade. However ATT cellular data will not connect and or transmit and/or receive using att, phone or lte APN.
Any help/thoughts appreciated?
Could be the rom. I've been hearing about a lot of connection issues on cm/aosp based roms lately. Try flashing back to stock to see if it works.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
Nevermind I re read. Did it work before you installed lean kernel?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using XDA Free mobile app
In my upgrade process, the first thing I did, after the recovery had been updated to Philz, was install slim rom and lean kernel together and at the same time. That was when the problems began. They went away when I reinstalled slim rom only (without lean kernel). Everything now ok. Hope that helps.
I'll start by saying I'm very much a noob but read and read as much as I can and have been following quite closely a lot of the s3 development so anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
It seems in the past few months a lot has changed with kernels and compatibility has broken numerous times. If the dates of the releases of kernel and Rom aren't quite close then some commits in the rom could break data, wifi, etc. If your running the latest nightly Rom make sure your using a recent kernel. Always just make a backup before flashing custom kernel and then you can revert right back if the kernel breaks anything.
Hope that helps...
