Hello everybody! I have a problem. When I am in 2G network, network signal is good, but no one can call me. SMS is incoming and internet works. But no calls. Sometimes and me can't even be able to call. What is the problem? With 3G network no problem.
Device - T999N.
I live in Uzbekistan. Operator is Beeline Uzbekistan.
Is the phone running the latest bootloader and modem? Which ROM is installed?
Modem T999NUVUBOH1.
Now installed RR от d2att. But I've try CyanogenMod, LiteRom, OctOs. And STOCK that was, I do not remember.
And what do you mean with the bootloader?
The bootloader is what allows the phone to boot the ROM. It's similar to a computer BIOS.
This happens on the stock ROM too?

I now about Bios. Bootloader is kernel in custom roms?

I don't remember. Bought and immediately flashed custom.
Bootloader is not the kernel. The Kernel is part of the operating system.
Well, now I'll try to change the bootloader. Can you give the actual link?
And it will not break unlock?
The simplest way to update everything on the phone would be to flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com. Flashing a stock ROM should not re-lock the phone to a carrier. I have used several Samsung phones in the past and, once the phone has been network unlocked, it has stayed unlocked.
Before flashing anything, confirm the phone's model # in download mode.

I flashed T999NUVUBOH1_T999NTMBBOH1_TMB from Sammobile. But Phone is bootlooped. It shows only logo MetroPCS Wireless for all and notification LED lights.
Phone is booted. But in stock also I can't call in the EDGE network.
Does the carrier have 2g for voice calls? I know that 2g is being eliminated in the USA.

Oh sure. Half of the our country works in 2G.
Hmm, I'm not sure why 2g calls don't work as the s3 definitely supports 2g.

He will NOT loose Tmobile wifi because he never had it, if he has an AT&T unlocked phone and
odin flashes any tmobile rom there will be no wifi calling because AT&T network itself does not offer it.
The only way he will have Wifi calling would be if he switched from the AT&T network to Tmobile network.
No one will have wifi calling regardless which rom they flash unless they have a tmobile sim card.
hope this clears things up a bit.

Nope, it won't lock or re-lock your phone, once a phone is unlocked properly it will stay that way
regardless which rom you flash and regardless if you're on the AT&T network or Tmobile network.
Do not Odin flash the AT&T stock firmware on a Tmobile phone even if it's unlocked.
If you do you will not be able to make or receive any phone calls.
You can flash AT&T or Tmobile CWM/TWRP flashable stock or custom zip file roms because
those do not contain the radio/modem images like the Odin flash firmware do.
If you odin flash back to stock Tmobile firmware you will loose root unless you re-root after flashing.
As far as bootloaders go, a Tmobile phone requires a Tmobile bootloader, but you don't need to worry
about that if you flash the stock official tmobile firmware with Odin.
All the other tmobile and at&t cwm/twrp flashable zip file roms found in these threads don't contain
any bootloaders that's why they can be flashed on any unlocked and rooted tmobile or at&t phones.

Exactly, the hardware is only a little different that's why we can use the cwm/twrp flashable zipfile custom
tmobile/at&t roms with either the tmobile locked or unlocked phones or the unlocked at&t phones.
The only exception is that wifi calling only works on an actual tmobile phone with a tmobile
sim card which is on the tmobile network whether it's locked or unlocked.

I thought the hardware between the AT&T s4 and the T Mobile s4 was the same. I thought the reason they received different radio frequencies was in the firmware and not the hardware can anyone confirm ..
I wanted to try to flash AT&T stock firmware on my t-mobile s4 for better performance on AT&T network

I would love the answer to this question too.
The key is the Modem aka Baseband. This is the Radio file and it is hardware and carrier dependent. If you try to flash this you will mess up the bootloader and radio and you have a brick.
I'm too on AT&T network with T-Mobile phone. I'm using the stock MDL radio and it's working fine. I don't notice a difference between the 2 devices on LTE network. if T-Mobile can't lock on to LTE network, AT&T S4 won't either.
sorry to slightly threadjack.... but does that mean if i flash a custom s4 AT&T rom (i.e. "CleanRom"), i will still be going through a Tmobile bootloader \ kernal etc..?
Is there any foolproof way to "convert" an tmobile s4 to an ATT based s4?
Can't you guys just flash a popular custom rom for sgh-i337 variant and then change the radioband (or whatever it's called) sh*t manually? If you ever flash another carrier rom, make sure ur baseband is the original carrier/phone as stated before. And flash ur carrier/phone kernel(custom or stock, doesn't matter) as well.
I believe these ppl created this topic because they want the stock carrier branded firmware on their phone, so that they can have all the carrier specific features on their phone. Third party ROM is not their choice, otherwise there are tones post out there already. I believe someone must be brave enough to flash it to their phone to test that, otherwise, there is no good answer to that.

Hi guys, anyone can tell me if this will work:
I have TMO M991 and I want to use it in Europe but have problem with network signal (not registered on network; missed calls & s... like that).
My guess is that radio is different and optimized for LTE, which we dont have here...
I m thinking of flashing I9505 stock rom and baseband...what do You think, will this improve radio reception/stable network signal?
I9505 is the version used in Europe region...
I honestly tried to find similar topics, no luck so far so pls point me in the right direction if nothing else...
Cheers!
Hi everyone. I just want to ask a question about my s3. So here is the scenario:
I brought my s3 locked to rogers to a CP technician and asked him if he could unlock my s3, he then told me that he can unlock it even though it is in 4.3 firmware. I don't know what he did but the only thing that I know is that he upgraded my s3 to 4.4.2 and he also rooted it. When he gave it back to me, I can already use any sim card so I guess that the unlocking is successful. The problem occured when I got home, my phone says it is in emergency calls only so i tried to toggle airplane mode on/off if it would fix the problem and it fixed it, I can call my phone again but then after 30 secs of toggling airplane mode to off, it would eventually cant receive or make calls or text. But when i toggle airplane mode on/off again, it can receive or make calls and texts but after 30 secs the problem occurs again. I go back to the CP technician to ask him what's happening but when I'm in their area, the phone works like a charm. I don't even need to toggle airplane mode on/off. And it can also receive or make calls/texts in their area. But when I go back to our place the problem occurs again.
BTW, my ImEI is still the same at the back of the phone if this info is needed.
Thank you everyone and i hope my problem will be solved.

You can flash a stock Rogers ROM. After that, you can install Philz Touch recovery, backup your current ROM, flash another a custom ROM (I like Liquidsmooth), and try it out. If you want to go back to stock, boot into recovery, and restore your backup.

Hi sir, I found out that I'm on the latest firmware already, it's 4.4.2 already so i don't need to get it from sammobile already, will i just skip the flashing on stock rogers rom step and proceed already in installing Philz Touch recovery to install a new rom. Thank you so much sir.
Connect via wifi and install any ota updates. Then install philz and a custom rom. You may also need to install gapps if they are not included in the rom.
Hey, So, I realized I posted a forum about this with an "anonymous" account.. And sorry about that.
Anyways, My issue is, my darn phone will drop the network, and decides to connect to a rogers or telus Network Operator instead of Bell (or just completely dropping the network entirely). I did the unlock hack through the original baseband, then updated to cyanogen 12.1 and installed the I317MVLUDNF3 modem, Same issues. I just dealt with it but am wanting to try to fix this. I recently moved to Resurrection Remix 6.0.1 (which, by the by, is amazing) and its gotten better reception, but same darn issue.
So, How do i go along to fix this? Any way through xposed or root or WHATEVER cause this makes the phone really unreliable.

And maybe the dialer unlock causes this? I could try getting it properly unlocked? Any insight on how carrier locks work?
I had an i317m that was locked to Telus running stock kk.
I used Odin to flash a stock 4.1.1 Samsung rom, sim unlocked the phone via the dialler menu, flashed back to the latest kk, pass the phone to a relative, and he has been using it for years on Rogers with no signal issues afaik. It may be possible that this method of unlocking causes a signal issue but I can't be sure.
In the thread that was linked, it looks like it could be a hardware problem.
Hmm.. Well I tore the phone apart and the antennas seem to be jn place.. The 4g antenna is alot smaller then the GT n7100's. Maybe that has something to do with it.. That or this phone has trouble with bell frequencies?

Not 100% sure but doesn't the phones imei number have to be registered on the network it's using. Maybe imei has something to do with it.
Just a copy and paste off the internet instead of linking to a website. I think imei is the problem.
What is IMEI?
Mobile phones, except the serial number have also IMEI number. IMEI — International Mobile Equipment Identity. IMEI — a common standard for all mobile devices, which is assigned to the phone at the time of manufacture it in the factory. It's the unique number, which is broadcasting to the carrier to authorize phone in the network. Structure of the IMEI is the same for all phones regardless of manufacturer. IMEI number is also used to track and block lost or stolen phones by the carrier, which further prevents to use of such devices. However, blocking IMEI in one carrier network have no effect in others networks.

Well.. If it was an imei issue wouldnt it be getting no signal at all since the phone can't register on the network?
Canadian carriers don't need the imei to be registered, only the SIM card.

Hello,
My phone was unlocked (not sure how, bought it second hand years ago) and used it fine on 4.4 custom rom. Ive updated it onthursday to the revolution 6.0.1 (with 3.0.2 twrp, nano open gappsa) and used it fine without problems on thursday.
However, yesterday, it lost cell signal and would not reconnect. So i rebooted the phone and now it is asking me to put sim unlock pin. What is the best course of action to get unlocked 6.0.1? I couldn't find an unlock method for 6.0.1. Should i backup rom, go back to 4.4, unlock, then restore?
Thank you.
It's asking for the sim pin or network unlock pin?

SIM Network unlock pin. My modem/bootloader is I317MVLBMA3. Do you think i can safely load a 4.1.1 rom and unlock again?
If i install phone info+ and look under secret codes, it does list the code for unlocking, but if i click on it, it gives me a blank page titled "service mode" but doesn't do anything (none of the three methods of entering work under the app). Probably because it is not stock ROM?
I tried searching for stock I317MVLALJ2 ROM to downgrade easily, but it seems like the link is down. I guess ill have to use ODIN.
EDIT:
Can I use TWRP to flash http://stockroms.net/file/GalaxyNote2/SGH-I317M/I317MVLALJ2_I317MOYAALJ2_RWC.zip stock ROM? Or do I have to use ODIN? I am assuming I can as it is a zip rather than img, and as long as I flash recovery right after flashing rom, I shouldn't lose recovery either?
Thank you.
The easiest way would be to flash a stock 4.1.1 rom in Odin. I am fairly certain you can downgrade as I think I downgraded from 4.3 or 4.4.2 on a Koodo note 2 so I could use it on Rogers. If it's not possible to downgrade, Odin will stop.

Thank you for the reply. I am currently on 6.0.1, but since modem is 4.4.2 ish, i hope that's okay. I will try ODIN. The zip i mentioned above is not a TWRP flashable zip, so I guess I have to use ODIN. The thing that worries me, though, is the fact that I cannot get to the recovery mode from off. I press and hold the volume up-power- home combo, but it keeps on resetting without entering TWRP. The only way for me to enter recovery right now is using a custom rom restart menu. If I go to stock ROM, I won't be able to access the recovery .
EDIT: If I let go of the power button at a certain time while booting, it seems to go into recovery just fine.. The problem is, that timing is tricky.
For flashing a stock rom, you need download mode so don't worry about getting into recovery.
To enter stock recovery, power off and try holding power, volume up, and home. Once the phone boots, let go of power but keep holding home and volume up until you see the dead android, then let go of all buttons.

Success. Thank you very much. So I've done the factory reset and successfully rebooted the phone. Then applied the unlock method, which seemed to have worked. Does not ask for SIM unlock pin. However, it does not seem to actually lock cellular signal. It still says 'Emergency Calls Only'. I am on Mobilicity, which used to be AWS, but now I believe is under Rogers. I know mobilicity used to take a while to connect, but I doubt that is the same now. This may be due to the old modem, so I will try updating the modem back to the 4.4 one... wish me luck
EDIT:
Without the modem update, it just connected to mobilicity !
Now the issue is, whether this phone will re-lock again once I flash 6.0.1...
Thank you very much audit13 for your live help!!
I will post back in a week or so (hopefully I remember...) whether this unlock sticks.
The 317m does not natively support was frequencies. You'll have to software enable was support.
You mean it doesn't ask for network unlock pin?

Yup. It unlocked for sure. But that is no different than what I had before updating to 6.0.1. I've used the phone without problems on Mobilicity for 2-3 years.
Mobilicity is no longer AWS, so it has no problems connecting to the network. It just takes a while, especially with the 4.1.1 modem...
Now I'm just restoring the TWRP backup that I have made on 6.0.1 to see if the unlock sticks.
The unlock stayed for my phone when I installed a custom rom.

Yes, that was the case yesterday as well. It stuck for a day, but after the cell lost the signal once (zero bars, emergency calls only), the phone got re-locked.
Now that I have restored the 6.0.1 backup, the phone is back up and running with it unlocked. Now ill will see how long this lasts.
Thank you very much for your continued support
I am having this issue now.. but the strange thing is that I've flashed to the Resurrection 6.0 rom a while back and it was working fine. Until a while ago I was pokemon hunting and all of a sudden my network died and its been asking me for a sim network pin... I was getting the intermittent network disconnect when I was on the Pokemon go app too long but it would reconnect back to the network after a short time.. not sure if it has something to do with the game app. Well, now I've downloaded the latest Resurrection rom and flashed it again doing a factory wipe but still nothing. I'm going to try and flash the modem and see if that helps.
EDIT: forgot to mention I'm on Koodo network which is also Telus, I believe. But now it wants to automatically connect to the rogers network hence I'm assuming its asking for the PIN.
(edited for grammar)
This is really strange that this happens. I've unlocked a few note 2 phones and none of them have relocked.

Csc is a carrier customization file. If you change the csc, which can be done using a stock rom, you can choose the carrier for whom the rom phone was intended. I choose Telus as a carrier because they have very little bloatware.

I've since reflashed and tried older versions of cm 14.1 but still no luck.
What is the model # for the phone in download mode?

Same thing happens with a stock ROM? Who is your carrier?

Flashing stock ROM fixed the issue, though i am curious as to why the phone only connected to one network.
Thanks for the help,
