Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini SPH-L520 HELP! - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I made an incredibly stupid mistake and didn't notice what the actual model number for my S4 Mini was. I used a guide to root it as if it were a GT-I9195 and now I've completely screwed it up. When it booted I couldn't connect to any type of network and the soft keys didn't work at all. I tried to install what I thought was the original firmware to the phone, but again didn't know I had the wrong model number. How do I restore my phone to its original state? I no longer care if it is rooted or not, I would just like to have a working cell phone again.

One day I will learn how to use a Samsung device. This has brought me closer to that day. The phone is now booted and downloading all it's Sprint crap. Thank you for the final piece to this puzzle.

I am not able to download the stock firmware for the SPH-L520. Can someone re-up the file and post the link ASAP. Thanks.

SGH-T889V ( Canadian Wind Mobile version) NEED HELP PLEASE

Hello Forum,
I've had the pleasure to brick my 889v and had it restored with a T-Mobile ROM. Long story short, i've lost my IMEI number.
I've tried reflashing the stock(Tmobile) rom but no luck.
I've tried the modem fix but still nothing. The signal bars are there but they eventually dissapear saying the phone is not registered on the network and for good reason since there is no IMEI.
Can someone PLEASE post the full T889v rom as i know there are a few users who have it?
I've tried msg'ing a couple of people with no luck.
I'm really stuck and would appreciate some help please.
This worked for me:
First you need to download the stock ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957209
Then make sure you wipe data then flash the ROM. Then download the flashable Modem.bin from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957380 then flash in CWM like you flash the stock rom.
Hope this helps!

LOL yeah it's still me crying about this.
Only thing i can think of now is that all these roms and fixes are for the t889 and not specifically for the t889v.
The model number in the phone shows up as a T889 when it's actually the T889v. This all happened when i got over exicted and flashed the t-mobile rom
I'm so stressed out about this!! I'm having to use my wife's blackberry for now.... :X
Anyone?
Just need a full nandroid rom for the 889v.
Please someone help me before i go back to blackberry..

Now isnt T889V same as T889 hardware wise? How was T889V got bricked by flashing T-mobile ROM?
The phone now has proper t889v rom restored. Problem was that imei went 0 and no data. The imei was re-injected qpst, but only edge 2 - no 3g or H+ data.
Any help or guidance would be a million bucks right now.
Thank you in advance.

I too am having the same problems with my Mobilicity Samsung Galaxy Note II...
I think like most newbies I tried to flash a custom rom on my brand New T889v and of course as luck would have it I ****ed it up... I think royally...
I've tried flashing back the stock rom through odin but I get stuck in a boot loop.. (every time it gets to the Samsung logo) and trust me I kept it on all day till it drained my battery just doing that....
No when I flash a custom rom, I get to boot up and but I can't register on the network... I just see a circle with a line through it we,here my signal bars should be. When I go to network setup it says I can't access network services as sim card is not present. (the sim card is in there...)

dont know if this will help , but in part D (?) of this backup thread it talks about restoring imei without having a backup.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852255
the modem i believe can be flashed just like a ROM thru recovery. just have to make sure it matches your bootloader version. sure there is a thread for that.
more info.... bootloader version , carrier , sghi747 ? , current rom/android version. and hopefully some more help will jump in.

Do you have access to wifi? If you do, install the Samsung Info App from the Play store and let me know the bootloader and modem version on your phone. The modem may be unknown because the modem does not match the bootloader.
I recommend not flashing or changing anything until you know exactly what's on your phone.

sorry to bug but does the pda version and csc have to match the bootloader and baseband NE4 dont laugh and remember Im new to this LOL

Since you don't have wifi, it may be because the ROM is 4.3 with a 4.4.2 bootloader and modem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54029413&postcount=11
So should I be using 4.4.2 Ota zip update?
Have a look at the thread. The first post says it will update the bootloader and modem to ne4. Are you already on ne4 modem and bootloader? You should be since imei is back with the ne4 bootloader.
I guess I didn't understand yes I'm on ne4 modem and bootloader
Your wifi doesn't turn on or it turns on and cannot connect to a network?
Not sure what to suggest since I have not run into this situation before. You could either flash a custom kernel or flash everything to 4.4.2 using the zip file from that thread.
You could also try to locate an updated csc file as well. Not sure if that will make a difference.

yes its weird everything seems to work but wifi, wifi just wont turn on slide it over to on it just slides back lol darn bugger

You suppose you could try flashing the full ne4 firmware from the thread I linked.

Update SM-T807A without Service

Hello,
I purchased a Galaxy tab S (SM-T807A) from a friend and wanted to use it just over wifi. Is there a way to get system updates without a carrier service? Or do I need to root it to have that ability? It is currently running 4.4.2 which isn't bad, it would just be nice to get it up to lollipop. Thanks in advance!!
Only way is via odin, but att don't release updates for odin.
However Tmobile do and your device is essentially the same. Whether odin will flash it on your device or refuse or not I don't know.
It's your call.
The only other way is to root via kingroot/Kingoroot then ask someone who is also rooted to pull the system.img from their device and upload it so you can flash back to your device.
However you would also need to flash the bootloader and radio partitions for everything to work properly, something you can only really do with odin.
Ok, that sounds like more effort than it is worth. Thank you for the response. If I get the tablet unlocked by the original owner and take it over to Verizon would it be updatable or would it still look at the AT&T servers?

Odian is much eaiser than kies.
You are lucky, someone in this forum uploded the stock firmware here: drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7ndOWpeCEJ4NFVHZmtvTFN0UFU&usp=sharing
I'm still looking for lollipop stock firmware of T707A.
If you have a Best Buy near you with a Samsung Experience inside, they can update it for you. Make sure you back up everything you need.

Check if it has CDMA on it first. I know the Verizon Tab S has GSM on it, but don't know about vice versa.

haha sure but i dont know which one is the right firmware, i bought the phone from a local store, without specific carrier for the phone.
also, i was able to find my IMEI written on the back cover of the phone.
is it possible to write the IMEI into the phone and just to make it work?
also, when im entering recovery mode to wipe the phone for new firmware installation, it says ""failed to find /misc partition"

you will get that error message as a ton of us do. should be an "e" in there somewhere.
I've heard of your situation when flashing older modem/bootloader in a custom rom.
You seem to know enough to grab odin and flash, that's a lot more than many so that's good. Not sure who sold you the phone, but if you want to rule out anything shady I suggest running the IMEI to check on the status.
What country are you in? Where did you download from? And did the phone bootloop soon after attempting to use it with a new SIM?
I looked on sammobile and the only information I could use shows multiple countries. My phone bootloops all the time but that's called learning.
Download the phone info app... heck you might as well go all out and put twrp on it and root/install custom rom. Go all in.... i'll be here waiting...
---------- Post added at 04:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 AM ----------
Honestly, though... grab the phone info app in the playstore and post the results.
If you THINK it may be stolen and got ripped off, don't put a SIM in it.
Not sure if it is true, but I think it can be rendered unusable if it is hot. But most likely it's just hurtin' from a sour flash. Phone info... (twrp is easy and a touch of magisk will give more info if you get stuck) but I am a rookie.
You in Israel? Can only be one firmware there... flash a Palestinian firmware. It won't... ya know... nevermind.

Just flash stock firmware. thats a pretty big mistake to make lol I'm pretty sure I made it quite clear in my guide to backup at least 2 or 3 times. But just flash stock firmware using the commands at the bottom of my guide. Even if the bootloader is locked the commands will work to reflash it still. The need links for stock firmware is also in the guide. And I will say this. If you took the newest update before rooting then you will have to wait for that firmware to be uploaded because its not uploaded yet.

The newest build is only a few days old so it will be nearly impossible to find online. And it has a different baseband and radio than the previous build. But the October update is OCP27.91-150
As long as the imei isn't zero you should be able to get service back. I had the same issue when I flashed an older firmware like a moron. But when I took the update again, I got service back. I don't recommend it because I may have just been lucky, but no matter what don't flash the gpt, asdspo(?) And bootloader with the older firmware. It'll mess your life up.
Ok i guess ill have to wait it out. Tried to flash stock and still unknown imei and no base band version so guessing it was updated. Thank guys!

Try taking the update again over WiFi if you can. You shouldn't have an issue as long as you're back to stock. But the update is only 3 days old so you may have a chance.

@ninjakira Would my modem.img backup be of any use here? Or anything else? I don't know what is stored where.

At this point no it's gonna need a full reflash of the firmware. I was having issues with my service and went and flashed the OEM file from the 2nd update through fastboot and did the erase carrier command and got my service fixed. Could try that.

If you have the xt1922-9 then that means you have the att version if I'm not mistaken. If so just go to the links in my guide for stock firmware in the att folder. It has both the firmware your on plus the updated firmware from September which is ocp27.91-62-3 plus my guide will help you achieve root. Just please read it all

I flashed bout those firmwares and still nothing i dont understand whats going on or if im messing something up somewhere in the process. It flashes an everything seems to be ok other than the Imei unknown which causes the phone not to read my sim card if im not mistaken. Thanks for taking the time to try and help.

The newest build is only a few days old so it will be nearly impossible to find online. And it has a different baseband and radio than the previous build. But the October update is OCP27.91-150.

Baseband is software. Radio is a piece of hardware. The piece of hardware that gets your carrier's signal. It can't be upgraded without physically altering the phone. Even then it would need to be the same exact radio because the stock drives probably wouldn't work, and the chances of a dev making a version for 1 person with a different hardware would be slim to none.

If you want him to have your Imei number, you could but thats not a good idea.

Try flashing stock firmware. If that doesn't work there are other options still.

You were flashing a gsi not a rom. Even then a rom and even less so a gsi, doesn't contain all the same data as what stock does.

As long as the imei isn't zero you should be able to get service back. I had the same issue when I flashed an older firmware like a moron. But when I took the update again, I got service back. I don't recommend it because I may have just been lucky, but no matter what don't flash the gpt, asdspo(?) And bootloader with the older firmware. It'll mess your life up.
