Which baseband do I need for Lineageos 16 with an S5 - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Device: SM-G900W8 / klte
Baseband: G900W8VLU1DQB2
I am curious to know which baseband version I require for the LineageOS 16. I tried flashing stock firmware for the phone from Samfrew with Odin but it seemed to leave my phones in a boot loop so I was not able to test if the SIM worked on stock firmware. I was able to update the baseband this way though and restore to a bootable version of LineageOS. I was going for the baseband version for my carrier, Bell.
I know that there was an update in Android 8.1 for baseband but the post I saw was for a SM-G900F so I'm not sure if baseband version would work.
Can anyone help point me to a site that has a baseband I need, or other advice? I know this has been asked before. Thank you.
Edit. The sim card does register in the sense that I can check my number. But it doesn't receive or send SMS and it says "No Sim". The IMEI shows up where it should but when I tap it it brings up a menu that says it is unknown.

You really should try to find a stock ROM that boots on your device.

Please help me solve mystery of this phone.

Hello,
I'm having a big problem with my phone at the moment.
I tried to flash custom ROM, but something somewhere went terribly wrong.
I did read some guides on flashing before attempting this and did make some precutions as well.
Such as creating ROM backup with CWM and copying efs folder with Root browser.
Unfortunately I didn't succeed with the flash. Now the phone can turn on, but there is no network service, and IMEI number is missing.
I tried to go back to my backed up ROM, but that didn't fix the problem.
I also noticed that on the back cover of the phone I have T-Mobile written on, but the phone itself has AT&T branding, such as AT&T boot logo and some AT&T apps. In most places the model number is SGH-I747 which is AT&T variant of the phone indeed.
But When I entered download mode via volume down + home button + power button, the model number presented there was T999 which is model code for T-mobile version of the phone.
Is there something that can be done at this point?
EDIT:
I read on the forums that there is chance to restore firmware of the phone with KIES, so I tried that. At first I entered SGH-I747 model number and serial number of the phone and it failed. But after that I entered SGH-T999 model number and serial number of the phone and KIES started to update the phone.
It seems that I had a SGH-T999 which somehow was tricked int thinking that it is SGH-I747.
At the moment I have android V4.3
Model SGH-T999
Bootloader T999UVUENC2
Baseband T999UVUENC2
PDA version T999UVUENC2
CSC version T999MBENC2
Phone seems to be unrooted, IMEI number is visible, I can call again, text again, use wi-fi and even mobile data. But the phone's factory mode is on.
Could you please suggest how to best proceed, if I would like the latest android version available for this phone, without any T-mobile applications?

[Q] Flashed CM12.1 - Now I can't get service

SGH-T999 got flashed to CM, everything works except I can't access my network. IMEI and IMEI SV and Broadbase are all showing as "unknown". Dialing the weird IMEI code crashes the dialer. Restored a 4.3 ROM, still couldn't get a signal. Tried installing the newest modem, no luck. What do I do? Is my phone completely ****ed and should I be looking for a new one?
Update: Tried reflashing CM again, now it says "No SIM card". I'm so lost.
Is the phone running the latest 4.3 bootloader and modem?

Hey I'm not sure what you mean by bootloader but I downloaded the UVUENC2 modem for T999 from this guy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880987 and installed it. No luck.
The phone is a T999 or T999L?
NC2 is the latest for the T999. Does the bootloader match the modem?
Actually now that I checked the back of the phone it looks like it's actually T999L.
If it's a T999L, the latest firmware for the phone came out in October, 2014.

IMEI null and Baseband Unknown

Hi,
I have a Galaxy tab S 10.5 and my UK sim card wont work in it because its saying it has no IMEI and the baseband is "unknown"
I brought this tablet second hand so dont know the full history of it.
Whilst trying to troubleshoot it through it has Lollipop 5.0.2 but the CSC was belonging to Italy (ITV). Before i played, the AP was T805XXU1BOJ1 and the CSC was T805ITV1BOG1
I have used Odin and tried flashing back over the top a UK version of the stock 5.0.2 firmware which was successfull but still the IMEI is null and Baseband unknown. The AP is still T805XXU1BOJ1 and now my CSC is T805BTU1BOI1
Is there anything else i can do please to try and get the IMEI and baseband back so i can use it for cellular as well as wifi?
Thankyou

Please help it's urgent

My friend's AT&T Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) was unlocked at 4.1.1 stock and now I installed Resurrection Remix (7.1.1). Now when I insert my sim there is no network but it recognises that there's a SIM but no carrier or whatsoever
Is my phone now locked or unlocked?
I live in India
Baseband - I747UCDLK3
Bootloader - I747UCDLK3
I have to return the phone by 10th March
I'm a novice, however in my experience once the phone is unlocked it stays unlocked no matter what rom you install. Perhaps another rom may work better in your situation. LineageOS seem to work well for my needs (with unlocked phone) and you should give it (or others) a try.
You may have lost the IMEI and will have to ODIN back to stock to try to get it back. Also, you can search for IMEI in the forums.
Check in about phone status under settings to confirm you lost the IMEI before all this.
I would flash it back to stock 4.1.1 from Sammobile.com with Odin.
7.1.1 roms will require the latest bootloader and modem to work.
It may be too late now but your main reason for lack of success is your "bootloader_modem" you are currently 5 or 6 places behind the latest release! Its very old and these ROMs require the latest bootloaders: I747UCUFNJ2 for Android version 4.4.2. Check out "enewmam17" threads on XDA for how-to and links to .zip files. Hope this is not too late to help in any case it's good for future reference.

can't use radio on hlteTMO images in my N900T phone

hello! please help me.
i have the phone, originally it was on stock ROM:
==========================
Model: SM-N900T
Android version: 4.4.2
Product code: SM2N900TZWETMB
Phone version: N900TUVUCNB4
PDA version: N900TUVUCNB4
CSC version: N900TTMBCNB4
CSC country code: USA
CSC sales code: TMB
HW version: REV0.6
Phone S/N: RV8F31G3MFW
Modem board: MSM8974
RF cal date: 2014.03.30
IMEI: 358917054164291
Checking Super user right... false
This model not supported for auto root
Done with Samsung Tool v.20.5
==========================
i ROOTed it, unlock (netlock) with Z3x.
install bootloader and modem ver N900TUVUFOB6 and CM12.1.
other country 4G (LTE) sim card working fine.
everything wireless (gps, wifi, bt) working fine except NFC.
its just doesn't turn on.
i found on the forum that N9005 and N900T has different NFC chips, so i believe that i should use hlteTMO version of ROM to let NFC work. other users tells that NFC work on their N900T.
So, i flash twrp-3.1.1-0-hlte.img
this recovery can flash hltetmo and hlte images, but i've got radio working only with HLTE image, with hlteTMO image still absent imei.
It looks like phone can't see modem with TMO images.
next I flashed N900TUVSFPL1_N900TTMBFPL1_TMB-v.5.0.1 once, so i guess bootloader and modem didn't update.
phone recognize modem, see my sim card, there is my imei, but phone tells sim is incorrect (because its from other operator than t-mobile).
So, i restore to my backup cm12.1. Phone now in same state like (modem N900TUVUFOB6), imei present, makes calls...
Can something happen to EFS or NVRAM during unlock with z3x?
May be my phone became half N9005 and half N900T during this operation? i can't remember what model i chooses, N900T or N9005.
may be i should restore to 1st backup before unlocking with z3x?
i just can't understand why it doesn't work with hlteTMO images of LAos....
please give me advice what to do to let it works with TMO images?
Guys, please, who has LAOS on TMO with working NFC write your versions of bootloader and modem!
I'm hardy stuck in my attempts to let RIL work in HLTE-TMO
1) there is a stock android 5.0 rom available on sammobile(dot)com for the N900T
2) LAOS? what is that?
3) flash the modem img for the N900TUVUCNB4 and try cm12.1 again
