So I finally got my Captivate rooted and started flashing roms to it.
I've tried CM10 and CM9 and neither had radio. (I'm running Helly Bean right now, and still no radio)
I've tried flashing modems to it and still nothing. I tired most of the ones on the modem dance site (cant link to it yet)
So some info about the phone.
Android Version 4.1.1
Baseband Version: Unknown
Kernel VersionL Devil 3.1.1.7 Cappy
CyanogenMod Version: Helly Bean Cappy
Build Number: cm_captivatemtd-userdebug4.1.1JRO03L
So how can I get cell radio working again?
In the settings menu, does it show your IMEI? (Do not post it if it does, just look for it.) If it shows "unknown", your /efs folder is goofed up and you'll have to try to fix it.
You are flashing ics modems right?

When you say you tried flashing several modems did they flash correctly or did you get an error when you attempted?

It doesn't show anything.
I read about copying the /efs folder from the backup, so i tried doing that (which was a chore, since I couldn't figure out how to mount "/" to get to where /efs needed to be, ended up doing it from the filemanager in the recovery. But that didn't do anything.

No error, the recovery always said the install was successful.
There's a thread about restoring your EFS folder from the phone in the development section. Give that a try. If that doesn't work, there's also a program on XDA called "EFS Pro" that might help you out.
I've also found that flashing Mosaic 9 after flashing back to stock will fix it for me (don't know why, though...).

Don't touch efs without going to stock first. When a modem isn't flashed during the initial repartition install, this sort of stuff happens. It should be normal on stock.

No, I was using the Samsung PST software. It downloads the software to 100%, then an error dialogue box pops up.
I have the "unknown baseband" problem, and I think it's failing right at the very end as it's trying to flash the modems.
Sorry for the multiple posts--this topic is being discussed in a lot of different threads, and I feel like I'm the only one who can't get it to work successfully.
Baseband Radio
Ok so this is a noob Q. Is the baseband what gives my charge Signal?? Ive been having problems with dropped calls and lack of network stablility would this fix it and can i upgrade to ee4, root flash roms and kernels and still keep the new baseband? Thanks...

In a nut shell, YES. Once you get yourself to an ED1 or ED2 stock or rooted state, you should then be able to accept the OTA EE4 update which will update your radio. Just make sure you are not on a custom rom when you update. So, stock rooted ED1 or ED2, then update. Just apply the OTA, then your favorite root kernel. If you want a custom rom, pick one that is made for the EE4 update. However, you will not lose the radio/baseband update as the custom roms and kernel's don't touch the radio area.
Good luck!!
Thanks youre the only who answered any of my posts...lol I was thinking maybe I had to know someone

Did you take Sim Card out? Heres i what i did.
as soon as i put the phone in download mode ( you know yellow triangle?) i inserted the battery, make sure its fully charged and make sure you take the sim card out. So i inserted the battery back in and pressed the button to start flashing the ED1 file. I tried to flash the ED2 thats on the list but that file is borken i think.
Please continue this discussion in the thread linked in Post #1 so that everything is in one place.

Try flashing the 10/17 build or invisiblek's or aeroevan's latest... Then go to settings > mobile > CDMA subscription and change it to ruim/sim and toggle airplane mode.

I flashed back to stock rooted ICS (root66) backup that I have via TWRP. Z NOT via Odin.
Once I was on ICS I did the 2767.. trick and it rebooted my phone, I then flashed back to Clean ROM and still have the issues..
Do I need to UN root and lock via Odin and then try this thing?

You most likely lost you imei/min or something, you can check in settings>about phone>status. Easy way to correct it is to flash a older stock ICS image and use the reprovision code. Flash this in odin then type this in the dialer *2767*3855# and that should fix ya back up. Flashing anything carries a risk of dropping your imei but it happens much more on AOSP roms.

I used how to for soft brick to get back to stock, then used how to repair iemi/roaming issue
Follow thoes 2 guides and youll be good, it worked for me
Just make sure that you unlock your bootloader again and reflash cwm from rom manager
Also be prepared to reflash the cm10 nighty from get.cm (make sure it is 10 not 10.1) because verison will push a software update without even going into setting/about phone/software update
Last of all you will need to update your baseband/modem

I flashed CM10.1, first time losing my data.. got it back by ODIN to stock, then typing his magic code in above.
Love you
I found a quick fix
Ok here is how to fix it I just sorta stumbled upon this.. Re flash cm10.1 when it is first activating either pull your sim or go into airplane mode by pulling down with two fingers from the top and accesing quick settings. then finish the setup over wifi- turn the phone off pop your sim out and put it back in and reboot. now when you take off airplane mode it should be fixed but it wont activate so just use Odin and re-flash root66

I heard the airplane fix is in the CM thread where it belongs. It is not a Q&A thread if it is a known issue with a particular rom. It belongs in that rom thread.

i had the same problem, flash back to the stock rom and dial *2767*3855# it will re-provision your phone and you wont be roaming any longer
How to Fix maybe
First, I installed back to stock settings and radio. I followed the instructions in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1762709
I did the stuff in section 5. Including Flashing a Stock Radio. So I went back to the VRALG1 4.0.4 ROM.
And I did the I535VRLHE radio.
But it still didn't work. BUT, once in stock settings, I did the reprovisioning.
*2767*3855#
And then that finally worked, it went through, and my phone activated.

This worked for me and i was in the same situation as you
Please help me!!!!!!
I have the same issue with the roaming and am not able to make calls, txt, or data. I have dont all of these steps. Back to stock and put the magic number in an still the same. Thank you in advance
Hi,
after being a lurker I finally made an account to ask for help with a problem I can't solve.
I flashed my P500 with the latest 7th build of the CM10 by Rashed97 from stock 2.2.2 with V10a badeband.
All wipes done etc. flash went well.
Only problem, the phone didn't detect any SIM cards, detected no GSM.
I went on looking at all the ways to flash baseband and fix it. In the end I failed, tried LGMDP got errors, tried the fix provided by some of the users but the baseband stays "unknown" (not sure if was like that b4 fix, so I recovered to 2.2.2 and gonna do it again).
I'm asking for some advice, just how am I supposed to handle it this time so in the end I get a functioning phone.
Should i update baseband first, then flash ROM?
Cheers, looking forward to your replies.
First link in my signature below. Try flashing that.
If didnt work, unzip it and place it in /system/lib and set permissions right.
Same as other lib's permissions.

I used the fix already, didn't work. Tho i didn't figure out how to get it into /system/lib (where do I find that directory?). You mentioned in an earlier post, that one has to use root explorer, as in an APP?
Or maybe I'm supposed to flash the fix while I'm still on stock 2.2.2?
EDIT: Ugh, I'm tired and my posts are quite bad, but I got some news.
Baseband turns to unknown right after flashing ROM (flashed gapps also). So I'm gonna try that method of yours with putting the fix into /system/lib , I'm off to figure out how it's done....
EDIT2: Copied and overwrote the files from system/lib but where do the META - INF folder go?
Meta-Info folders are for recoveries not for us
No need to extract them.
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Sadly, even extracting the fix and putting the files manually into system/lib doesn't fix my problem ( I even checked the permissions).
Maybe I should just try updating the baseband first on 2.2.2 and then flash the CM10 ROM?

So I updated my ROM and baseband with G Mobile Support Tool.
Right now I got stock 2.3.3 with V20c on my P500. I guess I'll make a recovery of this and start flashing the CM10 again.
EDIT: Now this is bat**** crazy. After getting stock 2.3.3 had to fight to root it (finally managed with Onec Click Root). Now when I got my superuser I can't even go into recovery. Holding home + vol up + power makes a factory reset instead (superuser stays, other app like rom manager, quickboot and settings get deleted). So wth?
I think I'll try reflashing recovery with rom manager (after i once again dl it).
Victory!
:laugh:
Finally I managed to get it to work.
After updating to stock 2.3.3 I already had the right baseband, so then I just had to reflash recovery (which fixed the issue of going into recovery mode) and finally reflash the whole CM10 ROM.
Got greeted by phone asking for PIN, GSM works with full bars and now I can sit back and enjoy the smoothness of JB Android.
I'd like to thank all the people who answered my posts, gave me advice and tried to help.
I really, really needed this :victory: because changing to P500 with 4.1.2 is a really great upgrade from my GT540.
That's both for soft and hardware (finally multi-touch, Donkey Kong Adventure on SNESOID, here I come).
Rock on guys! :highfive:

The Lg LU6200 is a much different phone from ours and probably has a much different solution to your problem, I would recommend you ask on the forum for that phone. The nitro HD is a very similar phone, and there is a development subforum for your phone in the nitro hd's forum so there is probably a solution somewhere on there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1445

Start at the beginning. When you rooted your phone what ROM/build were you on? Stock? What Recovery are you running? Did you make a backup? In my experience, you usually get a system 7 error when the download is bad, (did you check the MD5?) or if you're trying to flash a ROM that doesn't match your current system (IE: trying to flash a JB ROM when you're currently on ICS.)
The more info we have, the better we can help you.

Uh status 7 is assert protection so its a mismatch usually in device info typically model numbers, and has nothing to do with bad downloads.

That's an alternate form of DL mode. Odin a stock ROM from that screen. Read the Noobs Guide. Odin is finicky so pay attention to the guide. Then read it again. Once you've read and comprehend it all spin in a circle saying "I deserve this" three times and Odin will grant your wish. lol

Got it working, used TWRP to flash the latest RC CM 10.1
Got it all going now after a minor heart attack and a few more grey hairs. Just gotta figure out why the wifi isn't working at all now. Can't get it to turn on.
Your original 'system error 7' problem was most likely caused by trying to flash a newer ROM with an older version of CWM or TWRP. Glad you got the phone up, can't help you with the wifi problem, sorry. Although, what modem did you flash, if any? System Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version?

I flashed the UXUMA7 radio, didnt really do much, it worked before.
Still can't figure out the Wifi though :-/ just straight up won't turn on.
If you are on a newer CM 10.1 , the only supported radio is UCMC1, UXUMA7 is really old. That may be why wifi is not working.
UXUMA7 and UCMC1 are very similar. First one is the Rogers and second is att's release which is usually late by a month or so after rogers. Bottom line both will work.
Have your radiofile.zip, cm10.1.zip, and gapps from 20130301 all on your SD card.
Do you have a back up, nandroid? If not do it now.
Go to recovery and Clean up well:
Go to mounts and format data, system, cach twice or three times. Go to advanced and clean dalvik cache. Don't reboot
Now installing in this order:
- radio
-cm10.1
-gapps
Now reboot your phone.
Wait until it is finished and leave it untouched for 10 minutes to settle down and do its thing.
Then turn it off back on and enjoy.
Your noob status will start to fade if you do a clean install :thumbup:

Hello guys, couple days ago I bought a SGS4G, the T-Mobile one, not sure if there's another versino anyways the model is SGH-T959V.
When i turned on the phone everything was alright, but it wasn't recognizing my sim card, so i thought it wasn't unlocked, but that wasn't the problem.
I checked the settings and the phone info and i saw baseband unknown, imei unknown, everything! so i did a factory reset, flashed to stock, got 2.3.6 rom on it. Nothing worked only thing that appears now is the MAC address, can someone please help me!? I'm really desperate and I need to use that phone, really need to use it!

hi. don't sure how i fix this everytime i had this issue but a few days ago i encountered it again. took me some hours, done flashing to stock to restoring and so forth but still it was no good, still no signal because of unknown imei and baseband. then i re-read some things about this issue. finally it lighted up my mind and solved this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480418 - The Definitive Noobs Guide to Flashing and/or Fixing the SGS4G! POST QUESTIONS HERE! by Juls317 said that Modem ([Mo]dulator [Dem]odulator) -> helps your phone interpret wireless signals sent from your cell network and wireless routers and also send data back to them (flashing different modems can help improve your cell reception) (thanks FB) . once i re-read this , i assumed that this is what i need to bring back my lost imei. (credits to him)
tried flashing a modem of galaxy s 4g and boom! the signal,imei and baseband of my phone came back.
so here's what I did:
I flashed a stock rom of galaxy s 4g. froyo or gb, doesn't matter which two. (via odin) check the pda then reboot
next, I flashed again via odin a bootloader with cwm. (check the bootloader and let it reboot)
then, flashed again via odin a modem of galaxy s 4g (i used kj6 cause i remember mine is kj6) check the phone then reboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192436 - here's the link of modems by fbis251 (credits to him also)
the reason i flashed a bootloader with cwm is that i have a zip of sgs4g rom in my sd card which i'm using currently.
then i reboot into cwm and flashed my saved rom in sd card via install zip from sd card.
after that, i restored my backup in cwm and there my phone is, still good as my last backup.
i'm not familiar with using the adb terminal emulator so i don't know about those things they said about the efs folder in renaming the .bin files to recover the imei. sorry for not giving the whole step-by-step flashing things but i'm sure you'll understand some things i said especially those who uses Odin. hope this helps!good luck!
