[Q] Upgraded to 4.4.4 No longer have cell service? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/development/moving-please-post-t3009561
flashed that
Wifi works. Data/Calls do not.
What do I need to update?

Tried another 4.4.4 rom, same result

You probably have to update your bootloader, I had the same problem a while back. I Oden the entire 4.4.4 tmobile firmware and haven't had a problem since.

You need to read through the thread and see how other folks fixed the problem. The rom thread that you flashed.

Well If you really need your phone to work properly, receive and make calls, working mms and have long battery life and not blow up, you may have to settle for stock /touchwiz.

My internet data frequently disconnected

Hello,
i am back again with a new problem!
All the previous problems that was mentioned in this forum is GONE. i was a happy owner. Until i got this problem.
so i wanted to try new Modem, just so i can increase my Signal, and right now, my data plan is keep going on and off, and most the time i can't get it connected it.
i did the wipe date /factory reset from the ROM manager, and wipe cache and dalvik. and yet the problem is not solved.
right now, am running cm-10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL
and the Modem am currently running which sometimes works ( I747MVLDLK4 ) am with Rogers, Canada, Edmonton, AB
If anyone helped me out with this, your next coffee is on me! for real!
anyone?
When I have Wifi or Signal/Data issues, I just Odin back to stock and then re-root & flash ROM again. Works every time.

Did you use ODIN to flash the stock ROM and factory reset in stock recovery ?

Yes! i think i did a mistake. While i restored to the stock rom, The baseband that i was using it was I747MVLDLK4 and not the STOCK modem. So maybe that is why its not getting connected? am trying to apply the stock modem into the the stock rom, but its giving me Fail error.
am just scratching my head right now to be quite honest and this close to throw my cellphone outside of the balcony.

What type of fail error?
How are you trying to flash it?
i managed to make my modem into the stock version. However am just getting "E" in my data connection. Reminder am still in STOCK ROM and stock modem now. is that a good sign that i slighty getting everything back??
should i just install the CM 10.1 now and see the results or what you guys recommend?
annnnnnnnnd my " E" is gone.. Beautiful
do you guys think it might be a actual physical sim card issue?
UPDATE: i restored my phone into the stock rom by Odin3 and now i just re flashed the Cm 10.1 again. sadly i still have no connection and my income and outcome for calling and texts is also not working.
please help!
Try flashing Task's AOKP and see if you have the same issue. Additionally, try deleting the current APNs (access point names) and manually enter the APN settings for your carrier. Could also just be a faulty SIM card as you mentioned.

[Q] Dropped Signal

At first I thought it was the ROM, but I flashed 4 different roms and still the same problem. Every time someone calls me it drops my signal, all my bars go away and whoever called me cannot hear me. Idk how to fix this :/

4.4 seems to require at least the 4.3 modem baseband, you need to flash it via Odin. Be careful on the version, note the one already installed and chek which one is the normal upgrade. My m919v only worked with it's specific modem.
There's a few topic about this. Can't post link but look for this one: [ONLY FOR MDL BOOTLOADER] How to use 4.3 MK2 Modem and Retain Sound
Okay so I just returned to stock because I couldn't fix the problem .. so now i'm running android 4.2 and my wifi wont connect. Keeps giving me this when I try to turn on Wifi

[Q] Lost LTE after switching to KitKat

I decided to give Kit Kat another try a few days ago, but since then I have not been able to connect to LTE.
Prior to flashing I was running CM10.2 and my LTE was working fine. I initially lost LTE when I flashed PACMAN. I have also tried AOSB/ProBAM and Beanstalk. None of the Kit Kat roms gave me LTE so I gave up and restored CM10.2, but afterward I was still not getting any LTE connection.
I tried flashing the MD4 modem, but that didn't seem to fix anything. I've also heard that going back to stock could help, but I'd rather not have Knox if I don't have to use it. Which stock ROM here on XDA would be the best (Not planning on using the ROM. I just want LTE and then will flash back to Kit Kat)? Would a different modem fix my LTE issues? Is MK3 better than MD4, or are there any newer modems I should try?
Thanks for the help!

Any of the ROMS that have [TW] in the title should work. Full Knox only comes with flashing a tar file in ODIN, because your flashing every partition of the phone. Modified stock ROM zips do not have knox, unless otherwise noted. Make sure to do a prl and profile update when you flash to stock.

Flashed Wicked Sensations last night with the MK3 modem and I seemed to be getting LTE as soon as that booted. Updated my PRL and Profile, and then wiped. Installed AOSB again, and I seemed to be getting LTE until I rebooted. After the first reboot I seem to be stuck in 3G again.
Im currently running AOSB on 2 devices. When I first flashed them, I had the same issue until I rebooted the phone. After that I never had this issue again.

I think that's the opposite of what happened to me. My status bar said I had LTE when I first booted AOSB (this was after flashing/wiping TW). After the first reboot it connected to 3G and I haven't seen the LTE signal since.
I have updated the APNs, but I was using the same APNs for a while and had LTE on CM10.2 with them.

This is something wierd with Kitkat. I do not believe a fix has been found just yet. but if you dial *#*#info#*#* on most phones you can get into the phone systems and turn LTE back on.

There are some other options in there for networks (e.g. TD-SCDMA, CDMA auto). Would any of them help picking up Sprint LTE?
Other options include:
Turn off radio, CellInfoListRate
Turn on IMS registration required
Turn on SMS over IMS
Turn on lte ram dump

KitKat roms are currently having data issues. You could try backing up your current KK rom and go back to Stock, update prl and backup your DNS settings then go back to your backed up KK rom and restore from the dns settings you backed up.

ohhh i had this issue but i figured it out for pacman and most roms just download nova launcher and when you do create a shortcut on nova ad click on setting an it should say apn once there u open it and youll see where it says ehprd something like that click on it and go all the way to the bottom and change where it says bearer to ehrpd and lte should work ^_^
Ok so I finally got it working, although I'm not sure what was wrong with everything in the first place. My buddy said Cyanogenmod screwed up a recent ROM, so maybe that code was in one of the ROMs I was using.
Each time I flashed back to TouchWiz (I ended up using Wicked Sensations) I could get 4G/LTE. I ran a **72786*, did a PRL & profile update. Prior to finding a working ROM, when I went back to BeanStalk/PACMAN I would lose LTE. After I found the updated BeanStalk ROM I flashed and it still had LTE! Happy days!
At this point I was able to send MMS somehow, but phone was having problems being recognized by the network. I could connect to LTE but couldn't use the data. After I updated the APNs everything started working again.

4G won't stay connected

I've tried all sorts of roms, AOSP and Sense, they all stay connected to 4g for a few minutes at most after a reboot and then go back to 3g.
Everything else works fine, and my sim works good in other phones and stays on 4G.
Any idea what this could be or what is causing this?
Have you updated to the latest firmware? If your using kitkat roms, you need kitkat firmware. You can find the firmware in the second post of santods stock rom thread in development. Use the no boot.img one.

Yea I've flashed those also. Everything used to work fine until that roaming display issue. Never returned to normal for me, even tho roaming is gone.
Have you ever ruu'd back to stock and then done a factory reset from hboot? That is the only way to wipe out the network settings and force them to be updated. Worth a try i guess.

I guess that's my only option, thought maybe I'd be able to avoid it.
I'll try tomorrow and update.
Tried to ruu back to stock yesterday and still getting the same results. No 4g after a few minutes.

I'm not getting 4g at all on my phone. I came here to post a question and saw yours, so thought posting another thread would be pointless.
I've got NusenseSIX RC4.5 running and while the 4g icon comes on, there's no data transfer at all. I flashed the new firmware first, as instructed, and that seemed to go just fine according to the directions. But, when I swapped my sim card from my other One and waited a few minutes, even *228'ed, no data.
I got the phone already rooted and s-offed with TWRP 2.7.0.1. How do I get it back to stock to clear out the network settings? Or could it be a bad firmwware flash, so I'm screwed anyway?
EDIT: I redid everything, and just stuck with the Sense 5.5 mostly stock ROM. Data works now. Might've been firmware, might've been the ROM on my phone. Zero idea.
Is it possible to have a bad sim?
I just got a replacement device and I still cannot get 4G service for more than about 2 minutes before it switches to 3G

Sure, you can have a bad SIM, but I don't think that'd cause the drop in data transfer rate... lack of data all together, or other things not working, sure, but if you can actually catch a 4G link and then it drops to 3G, sounds more like the radios, the hardware, or just a bad coverage area. I'm no expert, though.
In case anyone was wondering, I ended up getting a new SIM and that has fixed my 4G issue. No idea what was wrong with the SIM, but anyway it sucked.

Loss of Data - No Sim Message

Good Morning Everyone,
I encountered a very weird issue last night after updating my table to 5.1.1 official. For the longest time, I was running the AOSP rom for 605 on my 607T. I was able to access Data and Wifi with no issues.
Last night, I rebooted to twrp, wiped my system and cache and internal storage.
Through Odin 3.07 - I flashed the factory firmware for 5.1.1.
Phone booted up and told me there was no Sim and would not allow the wifi option to be turned on because there was no sim. I thought this was strange as I have used it before on wifi when there actually was no sim card present. I pulled the sim out and put it back in - voila, i have wifi again. My Data connection kept the X through the bars though. I figured it must be something with the APN. I go to the APN Section and get a messages that this user (verified im set as the owner and only user) is not authorized to view APNs. I figured I would just create a new one - which I did and saved it. It would not even show the new one I made.
I ran into a similar lack of Sim visibility before when I first flashed 4.4.4 after running on an AOSP rom. I ended up flashing back to AOSP.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Reflash and try again, there was some mention of Data/Wifi errors. Also was the factory firmware for the 605 or the 607T? If 605 just flash the 607T firmware and you should be fine.

I flashed factory firmware for the 607T.
Going to try and reflash this afternoon when I get home from work and will follow up.
LOL I just read through the 605 thread -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63147588&postcount=75
Looks like if you come from a custom rom - a double flash is required period. Glad I didn't actually set up my device last night.
Figured I would update for anyone who runs into this. Reflash did not work. Wiped everything and flashed a third time - no dice. I flashed back to 4.4.2 original factory image and used smart switch to upgrade back to 5.1.1
