[Q] Can't send texts - Samsung Mesmerize

I just flashed Cyanogen 7.1 on my mesmerize from rooted 2.3.4... when i send a text it says that it has been sent, but the person never gets the text. I can receive texts, and i can send MMS(If i send mms then the person will get the message). I have tried flashing the ee19 radio, that makes the phone go into air plane mode, and there's no way to get it out except for flashing back to stock. i've also installed handcent and go SMS as others have suggested with no success, and i have called *228 to try to fix things, but when i call *228 ti voice says that the phone has been upgraded but the screen says that the phone failed to upgrade... I'm out of ideas other than going back to 2.3.4 root.

Sounds like you need to flash the ee19 radio. Unzip the linked file and Odin the tar file in the pda slot. Should fix it for ya.

Still nothing... i had tried flashing the EE19 radio using odin before, but doing that puts the phone into air plane mode and it won't come out. I tried it again with the file that you linked, with the same results...

That sucks. Only thing I can say is start fresh and try flashing CM7 again. Make sure you get the right build.

I will try... thanks for the help

How new is the phone your having issues with. I had problems with anything other than eh09. Wondering if the pre nightly would work but haven't tried it. Don't they have a version of cm that's fixed for eh09? My device was shipped just last week from insurance due to a theft.

Im thinking that, that may be the case. My phone isn't that new, bought in may 2011, but before trying to flash anything to it, i used the USCC rom thing to flash stock 2.3.4(EH09) onto the phone. Now any time i try to revert to 2.2.1(EE19), the phone automatically sticks in air plane mode and won't come out.

I flashed hienz57 and miui both dependant on eh09 but cm7.1 won't work. Sticks on airplane as soon as I flashed ee19 radio. If u want cm try pre nightly fixed for eh09 radio.

[Q] Having issues once flashed to stock via Odin

I flashed to both versions listed on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092021 and am seeing the same issues with both.
The time is 4 hours off, I can uncheck auto-time and check it again and the time will be correct for maybe 5-10 min before returning to 4 hours later.
Everytime I try to download apps through the market, I get "Application Name" could not be downloaded due to an error. This is true regardless of wifi vs hspa.
With the pure stock version, superuser is still installed. Should I have unrooted it before attempting this? I simply followed the directions listed on that post.
Flash the original firmware located in Entropy's Ultimate unbrick thread uckd5. That version is pure stock that is not already rooted. To be safe use the included pit file.

The time thing is a modem issue. The time worked fine when I used the newer gingerbread leak for a few days.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Can you clarify what you mean by a modem issue? Sorry I'm a total noob. I tried GTG's ultimate unbrick and the clock is still off. Market works, but it also worked for about 5-10 min after I flashed it last time.
Thanks for the help so far, hopefully I can get this sorted out.
Also if anyone can suggest a solid GB rom with working activesync/SSL I'd be pretty happy. I tried the most recent Infused, but I really need to be able to sync my corporate email and that isn't possible with Infused.
Edit: Fixed time by checking and unchecking automatic time and it looks like the proper time is staying. Also, the market is also working just fine! Thanks for all the help! Still open to some custom rom suggestions
Edit 2: I'm a liar, rebooted the phone to test and it reboots with the improper time :-\ Market still works on reboot though
Installed Infused 1.6.0 just to have something working on my phone, but that also failed to fix the time. (My phone == my alarm clock, so this has been more than a bit annoying)
Thanks for the continued help!
Not sure if bumping is frowned upon, feel free to yell at me if it is, but I could still use some help!

Flashed to KI3 and now the clock works, thanks for the tip on the modem.

no network service AOKP

No cell service, samsung capitvate Aokp ics build 28 rom. I try to set new apn, and nothing saves, I have also tried to flash a few modems and new roms...nothing is bringing back my network...plz help...thx
If you have flashed new modem and tried updating your apn please reflash. There is a good chance you screwed up your efs folder. Go back to stock and than back to ics
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Rollback to stock GB and see if it works. Remember to go into APN and note the settings.
Then go back to ICS. Try mine if you are able to download it...
Having the same problem as OP. I flashed from Mosaic 9.
So bravo, you're saying go to the stock GB rom or just the bootloaders? I've reflashed with same results.
UPDATE:
Got it to work by flashing a different modem. I went to the following link:
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
downloaded the first one in the list, put it on my internal sd card, rebooted into cwm recovery, flashed it, and wala. Thanks anyways guys. I really appreciate all of your work.
might have to break down and go back to stock like suggested. tried several roms and several modems. It wierd cause i will have no cell service then like hours later I will have it or after a reboot i loose cell service again...sim problem possibly? i really dont know
I have no clue. These guys would know a lot more than me. All I can tell you is that I flashed the first modem on the list on that link, and it worked nicely. I'm in Wisconsin, and I'm using a go phone sim card.

[GUIDE] How to get v21y over the air on G2x

UPDATE 6-15-2012: i just wanted to update the beginning of this post to make it a little clearer, the original text is below
to get the v21y base band on your phone over the air, you have to go back to stock
to do this you need a stock rom, either your own backup or the one from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644 (the first and second link is a stock 2.3.3 nandroid which is a zip you extract on your pc and run flash.bat from inside that folder)
if you need the drivers, download the third link.
follow the steps in that thread, it works
if you have your own stock nandroid, just boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and restore it (after you backup whats on your phone now)
then reboot your phone
after restoring either your stock nandroid or the one from the post above, shut your phone off and remove the battery and use NVFlash to restore the stock recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
reboot your phone
now that you have your phone like it was from the beginning you can go to System Settings/About Phone and click on Software Update. this should pull down the updated Gingerbread version 2.3.4 and the new baseband v21y. IT WILL OVERWRITE YOUR PHONE AND WILL BE PLAIN STOCK
it takes a few minutes so be patient
once it is done and it rebooted your phone you will have to put ClockworkMod Recovery back on it using NVFlash. then you can flash other roms to your phone
please keep in mind that there is a bluetooth issue with both GB and ICS roms on this baseband and that only a few roms actually support v21y. Owain has written an update file that you flash to get support on any rom with v21y, supposedly it does work on any rom (GB or ICS) but i have not tested it, so read up and test if you want.
as of CM7 RC3 all CM7 builds support v21y
please thank the owners of the threads linked above, their methods worked flawlessly for me and i hope they work for you as well. this was a very easy way for me to get the new baseband. good luck!
original post------------------------------------------------------------------------
i was having a heck of a time trying to get the new baseband installed on my phone. i had all the stuff downloaded and all the instructions ready, had the KDZ file, the LG tool, everything...but i could not get anything to work
so what did work?
well using CWM Recovery i restored my stock backup i had made when i first got the phone (best to save this off the phone as well in a safe place) and then using NVFlash i put the stock recovery back on it
once that was done and i was booted back into stock you can go into the About Phone and choose Software Update (or whatever its called) and check for an update. it found one and proceeded to download a 30meg file. asked if i wanted to apply the update, installed it, and rebooted into a nice shiny new 2.3.4 GB setup with v21y and the new baseband installed!
the CM7 nightly build (June 3) is working great. getting ready to try a couple of others (Buru, EB, Genesis (although i was having a problem there, see that thread))
so its only been one day on it but so far calls are good, gps lock is fast, overall loving my phone even more than before!!
Great that the OTA worked for you, I left my phone stock the whole week it was mentioned about sending it and I checked the software update and it always told me the software update check failed/timed out lol
Sent from my LG-P999
I am extremely pleased with the update.
I had been running a rooted stock ROM + CWM Recovery. I had been dismissing the update notice for weeks now. Finally, earlier this week I flashed back the stock recovery and let the OTA proceed.
Current uptime: 67:59:06
I haven't gone a full day without either a random reboot or a sleep of death in a LONG time.
Did mine the other way not over the air. Then did the sound update. Also running CM7 and all has been fine.

you are on stock rom AND stock recovery? data connections good otherwise?
A little clarification, if I may...
Could I just flash the stock 2.3.3 nandroid from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274 to bring myself back to "stock" then, using NVFlash that's already on my computer from when I first rooted my phone, flash it back to stock recovery? After that, try the OTA to get myself to 2.3.4 or, if that doesn't work, use the LG Updater tool? Then just root my phone again and go back to enjoying custom ROMs?
Seems like it would be easier and one step less if I get the nandroid from that thread rather than following the link in the OP and having to extract something on my computer.

yes that will work as well and whether you get a stock rom from the link i posted or the one you posted makes no difference this was just how i did it
Hey, thanks! I've been wanting to update my BB ever since it became compatible with the new ROMs, just haven't been able to set aside the time to be able to do that. Just wanted to make sure I had it right before I attempted.
Your steps sounded easy and straight forward; it just never hurts makes sure!
Thanks again, bro.

you're welcome
there is a bluetooth issue with all roms and the new BB so if you use BT you might want to stick with the stock 2.3.4 that you will get with the upgrade. lots of devs are working on that issue so hopefully it wont be long
suggestions?
I followed the instructions in the first post, and now am back on the stock rom (21e, july 15 2011). However, when I go to try the software update, I get the following message: "current version is the latest version." Is there another way to get the new 21y baseband?

[Q] No cellular wireless signal after Cyanogenmod 9 - ICS on i897

Not getting a cell phone signal at all on my Captivate. very rarely I get it and it stays on until I reboot for some reason, or sometimes goes off on its own. No problem with wi-fi or anything else.
Have had Gingerbread 2.3.5 - KK4 (official) for a long time, and did not have this problem. Here is what I did:
Installed Cyanogenmod 9.0 (ICS 4.0.4) on my Captivate that had the stock Gingerbread KK4. Also installed the gapps-ics package from 29 April 2012
I did this after rooting, and installing clockworkmod.
Even updated it to Cyanogenmod 9.1, but have the same issues.
More detail on it:
- The cellular radio shows no signal, but Wifi is on fine.
- When I press the power button, I see the power off and reboot options, including one that says "Airplane Mode is ON", although it clearly isn't since Wifi is working
- A couple of times, I rebooted into recovery, and did a "repair permissions" and rebooted, and it got a signal, but does not happen always
- Once the signal is on, it stays on for the whole day, but goes off again after a reboot
- Turning Airplane mode on and off does not help
Is this a modem issue, that seems to be a popular problem. It's almost as if there is a software bug that fools the phone into switching off wireless radio
Please help me fix it, or share successful fixes
I had same problem when I went to helly bean then back to remics-jb I flashed back to stock then back up to what I wanted it fixed the problem so I think its the modem.

KOROCK is right
So were you able to fix? I had a similar problem as well; I made the mistake of putting cm9.1 on and it bricked because I followed the instructions that popped up when I thought I had flashed it correctly. I tried everything; this is my daily driver so I had no choice but to find a fix, and find it fast as my clients were unable to get a hold of me for a few hours.... Anyways, got a little off track; but did you fix?

A little search/reading goes a long way.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
KK4 is what you'll want to go back to stock but I highly suggest you read this before you do anything http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
Also, before returning to stock, you could try flashing a different modem.
Check to see if your baseband is still there. If it said "Unknown", you need to restore it. CM9 is supposed to have the modem.bin file included though. Check to see if the /radio folder have modem.bin in it, if it does, and the baseband still say Uknown, then manually delete the modem.bin, do a wipe and reflash a CM rom that have modem.bin included.
If Baseband is still there and still no signal, then check to see if IMEI is corrupted or lost (if its null or doesn't match the back of the phone). You can either copy over the efs backup folder if you have one and "fix permission" in CWM. If not, then you need to ODIN the phone to stock to fix it.

[Q] Service is toggling after flashing JB on i727

I have two questions 1) is my only way to fix this to go back to stock ICS using ODIN? 2) Once i get back to that, what do i do in order to get to a working version of JB? is it as simple as trying another ROM? Is it ok to skip ICS and just flash another version of JB?
Background if you want it....
Followed vincon guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1773659
Started with Stock ATT 4.0.4
CWM via odin
baseb: UCLI3
I flashed JB [ROM] [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat to my i727 last night. Everything went seemingly smooth, everything worked with a strange exception being my exchange account wouldn't authenticate.Today my service is off about 95% of the time, then it will come on and ill get a text or two, then it goes off. voice calls dont work at all. LTE data is hit or miss.WiFi works
In phone status under network type its toggling: UTMS:3 to HSPA:11 to HSPAP15 to no service...then it drops everything and service state will say out of service and disconnected.
My IMEI is correct, I confirmed that.
It tried dialing the *#*#XXXX#*#* thing, that just said no connection and ended.
I started to go down the path of looking to flash a new radio, but that just doesn't seem like the answer to me... obviously the risk of me being wrong is high. i did check the MD5 numbers on other radios though and they came back as mismatched, so i did nothing there.
Also i wiped cache 3 times, as well as dalvek
Is there a simple solution that Ive missed or do i need to go to stock via ODIN? What, if anything, did i do wrong>
If you didn't flash corresponding UCLL3 baseband - AFAIK intermittent service is expected.
If you need to flash baseband - flash the latest UXUMA7 baseband.
Well i've actually had the exact same problem, in several variations and on several androids and here's my conclusions:
1 Magnetic storms and grid issues with the carrier. There's not much to do about these, except maybe for a making a tin hat for your phone. But, on a second thought this would also kill the signal
2 If the issue persists for more than a couple of days then the other thing for me was = radios that just didn't work with my carrier or rom. Changing these showed instant results.
I actually had this exact problem but for me it was on the carrier end. I tried every ROM and radio out there to no avail. After about a month and my parents also experiencing the issue, we called the carrier and they had it fixed in about two weeks.
