I've been having issues with my E971 on Rogers ever since I tried to flash an E975 ROM on it some time back. The phone is unable to connect to the network and shows 'Service Disabled'. I am unable to manually add an APN or search for networks. If I take the SIM out of the phone it shows my IMEI but if the SIM is in the phone it shows as null.
I used a KDZ to go back to the stock Jelly Bean version of Android and still had the same issue. I thought it might be an issue with the modem so I rooted the phone and flashed houstonn's Rogers JB modem and still couldn't solve the issue. If I flash the ICS modem on the 4.1.2 ROM I'm able to connect to the network but WiFi doesn't work. I tried installing various different AOSP based custom firmwares and was able to get data using the ICS modem but again no WiFi. Using the JB modem on an AOSP ROM would give be an external modem(undefined) subsystem crash. At this point I got my hands on a stock ICS bin file for the E971 and flashed it using LGNPST. On 4.0.4 both my data and my WiFi worked so I backed up my EFS manually using adb and ran the OTA updates on the phone. Unfortunately once I had updated to 4.1.2 the network stopped working and once again I got the 'Service disabled' messaged. Manually restoring my EFS didn't solve the issue.
It seems that for some reason my phone is unable to work with the JB modem. I find it odd that after restoring to stock the OTA would end up breaking it like that. I'm not sure if I'm backing up and restoring the EFS wrong or if the phone is just broken in some way. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The other day I took the plunge and decided to root my phone and install some ROMs. It was all going well until I started noticing that I wasn't able to make/receive calls or texts. I had gio pro 1.4 installed when I first noticed this problem and I had read that installing cyanogenmod 7.2 had helped someone with a similar issue so I installed it.
Now I have cnmod 7.2 installed with the same problem and with my carrier name changed from virgin to bell. If I restart my phone I am able to call and send messages for a few minutes but then craps out again.
Hopefully someone can help me
Thanks in advance!
no network problem
unfortunately u are having the same issue as me you have to select use 2g only which is only good if you are on a network that supports 2g the nv data file become corrupt somehow and you lose 3g capability i am trying to figure away to fix the gio but to no avail right now

Actually I found out why I was having this problem recently. Turns out I have a different model of the gio (gt-5660M) . When I installed gio pro 1.4 I completely overwrote my stock firmware including the baseband so it screwed up my network settings. I had to find my stock firmware, flash it using Odin and then I just installed clockwork recovery and flashed cyanogenmod 7.2 using that. It's been fine working since then.
Thanks anyway!
well atleast your lucky i restored my original software and it has the right modem when i do a network search it picks up the 3g networks just wont connect to them
Yes, I accidentally did the same to my GT-S5660M. What I did was reflashed the stock ROM and then rooted, installed CWM recovery, and flashed a custom ROM, being careful not to override the baseband. Thankfully the ROM I flashed used CWM recovery and not Odin, and I didn't have to worry about a thing.
So I recently attempted to flash CM10 to my phone and I think it royally screwed everything up. After messing around with JB for a bit (no working data) I decided to flash back to stock and stay there for a bit. Well, once the flashing was done, I attempted to activate my phone, and it kept failing. Tried re-flashing just to be safe, and it failed again.
I then tried restoring from a nandroid I had, hoping it would restore service like it normally does. But it didn't. It showed my phone as unactivated. I was still unable to activate my phone. D:
I looked in About Phone > Status and my MDN and MIN were screwed up. My phone number displayed as "000-000-5472" and the MIN was all 0's. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.

I also did the same thing a while back when i tried out the UK Firmware and when i flashed back with the stock Verizon firmware it erased my phone number and a lot of other stuff but here is a link from a while back explaining how to change your phone number back it worked for me but i never got my 3G working right some info will be different I have the C Spire R800x.

Good Luck
U need to flash the baseband to stock baseband as well as the firmware, and re activate your phone
Happen to me when i flash new baseband and kernel to my R800x
Can't activate since the prl was not loaded properly and i can't get through activation process (ics glitch)
End up flashing to stock, re-inject and activate. Then restore the new ROM via nandroid. This way the phone stay in activated state.

When you flash a baseband before installing a rom, activate your phone on the stock firmware first, then install the rom. Same happened to me but I couldn't see the numberpad.

I've gotten my phone into a state where I see signal bars, I can make calls and send texts, but no LTE or H+ is displayed and if I try do anything involving the internet it says there's no network connection. Wifi works just fine.
Here's how I got into the predicament. I should have learned my lesson from last time I flashed a Verizon ROM, but I didn't, and I flashed SkyNote RC9Z-3.9.1. Data works just fine in THAT ROM, but any subsequent ROM flashed after that... the network data is completely HOSED. I've tried enabling and disabling network data in settings. I've tried flashing the Devil kernel. I've tried restoring several different ROMS from nandroid backups. All restore fine and all have completely non-working network data. Last time I ran into this I had to flash the stock image in Odin to fiz the issue. This time however, that didn't work. The images flashed successfully, but upon reboot all I got was a a welcome screen bootloop of the samsung swirly logo and the T-Mobile logo.
I'm guessing this has something to do with the 4.3 bootloader? I'm downloading T889UVUCMK7_T889TMBCMK7_TMB.zip from SamMobile site and boy is it taking FOREVER! 7 hours left on the download. My thinking thoug is that If I unzip this new 4.3 firmware and flash it with Odin (or Kies if I absolutle have to) my device will start behaving again, and Network data will work, and I can go about ROM flashing and hopping again (though I'm gonna stay away from those Verizon ROMs let met tell you!).
Does anyone else have any other suggestions on what I can do to get my data back or to patch my bootloader to the 4.3 version? I was looking at this thread and wondering if it's safe to follow this procedure for patching once I have installed the 4.3 stock image:

I have a rooted tmobile note 2 on 4.1.2 and old bootloader. I wanna go to 4.3 without knox. I do know you need to either run the new bootloader or wifi patch to get the phone to boot and wifi to work. The issue is that i am running into is the rom seems to boot fine however I have no signal/data connection at all. I have my EFS folder backup . When it boots it shows a circle with a line through it where the signal should be. However when i go back to 4.1.2 i get it back. Any recommendations or what modem to use with international roms?
I've run into a bit of a pickle with my root attempt on one of my LG G3s. The first went without a hitch while the 2nd didn't go so well. In order to flash CM12, I followed the LG G3 stock flash guide from hyleton to downgrade from Lollipop to 4.4.2. I then flashed CM12 with TWRP and hit a snag where the mobile data connection would try to establish, and the phone would black screen requiring me to pull the battery. The only way to get passed the CM12 setup would be to boot without the TMO SIM card.
Because I considered this a failed port, I flashed back to stock 4.4.2 but can't connect to the TMO mobile data network, but I am successfully able to get passed initial setup with the SIM Card in. IMEI and mobile number are still registered to the device, so at this point I'm assuming the issue is with a bad modem flash that occurred when I went back to stock 4.4.2. When I check the baseband version, the number/letter combo is quite large and doesn't seem to match with your typical Baseband versions, hence why I think I have a corrupt modem.
I can't find any modem software packages out there for the US TMO LG G3 variant, so was hoping someone could point me in the right direction or otherwise help provide some guidance on how to get my data connection back.
Hey,
I've got the exact same problem. Did you manage to repair it?
Thanks.

You could try asking for a modem package for your variant here on the forums, otherwise you could try a custom ROM and wiping everything even the modem before flashing, most ROMs come with a modem built in.
