Hi, I am new to xda and i'm also quite new to the flashing process. I have a captivate i896 and successfully flashed a rom on to my phone. However after doing so the phone is unable to connect to my mobile carrier. I have also tried to install a modem from the stickied thread how ever it gives me an error::
cwm 3.0.zip error
i'm going to try to flash the helly bean rom in hopes of getting that fixed.
also in the about phone section it says baseband is unknown... ive googled that and it said my IMEI is corrupted or something or other.

Hey guys, I just recently flashed to cm7 on the nexus s under sprint. I'm having problems getting a network to be detected or signal at all. This actually happened when I flashed onto cm9 from stock, then I figured I go to cm7.
EDIT: The phone model is SPH-D720, which is the nexus s 4g. But it doesn't seem to like any of the roms I want to flash, it always said that the aserts fails on the product. It works when I flashed Nexus S roms, which is weird and I made the mistake of flashing a Nexus S rom first. Did I screw it up by flashing it?
What's your baseband, found by going on Settings > About Phone?
Alot of the guides for rooting and unlocking are for the Nexus. It will work for the NS4G also, but make sure you have a NS4G clockwork recovery also. I would recommend flashing a new recovery and trying that first.
My baseband is D720SPRKE1. I'm not too sure what that means. I might've chosen a NS instead NS4G clockwork recovery. That might be my problem.
I tried all the ICS flavours on captivate, finally ended to stock KK4, then I decided to try WeUI rom. After installing the ROM, I get an error message of MM#6.
I went to stock I897UCJF6 using one click download; still I am having the same problem of MM#6
I tried restoring to stock KK4 again. Unfortunately, I am still stuck at error MM#6.
I saw IMEI is changed to default not the actual number found at the back of phone. Tried restoring the IMEI using the other thread in development category. MM#6 error still exists.
I can see the signal bars in the phone, but I cant receive or make calls.
PLEASE HELP !
Please don't make double post just because you're frantic.

Trying repairing your IMEI to be the original assigned to the phone.

I got my original IMEI back on Galaxy S (after I tried ICS custom rom) with this procedure:
1. Delete all 2 nv_* files in "etc" folder
2. Reboot into download mode
3. Flash back to gingerbread 2.3 XXJVU stock or possibly back to eclair 2.1
4. To me it worked and I got my original IMEI now restored.
5. I am not kidding that's how I got it really fix from my 47000000...XX funny looking IMEI.
You can try this procedure and hope it works for you like it worked for me.

I'm not sure if this has been covered in another thread, but I was looking around a bit and found nothing and sorry if this isn't the correct place. I wasn't sure.
I have an LG P509(TmoUSA). Yesterday I rooted it for the first time and installed CM10 on it via ROM manager. After it successfully installed, I noticed I didn't have any signal and that my imei was missing. It said "Unknown" . On my dialer I pressed *#06# and a little box popped up with nothing in it. I switched back to stock rom using LG tools and both my imei and signal had been restored. I attempted it again but this time, I tried installed CM 7 via the ROM manager along with Google apps. The same happened. I again, restored back to stock. I attempted it a THIRD time, but, this time I did it via clockwork. I cleared cache and data and installed from zip. I installed CM 7 and CM 10 though this method. Both times my imei was gone and my signal was as well. Right now I'm sitting with stock rom and rooted.
Does anyone know what's going on? Can I not install custom roms with my phone without loosing my imei?
I think you did not upgrade your baseband, thats the only reason you are not getting signal. I cant tell about p509 but i had the same problem, but my phone is p500. You have to flash v20 baseband for new roms i.e higher then gingerbread search the forum i have a link but its for p500. Not sure if both p500 and p509 baseband are same anyway here is link for p500 baseband, just ask if both p500 and p509 baeseband are same if they are same you are good to go.

I had the same issue but with cm 9 and upgrading to the new baseband fixxed it for me
Thanks for the replies guys. I was in the process of upgrading the baseband, but I fell asleeping during the back up. I'm doing it now as we speak though. :good: I will post results.
It did work! Upgrading the baseband worked! Thanks for helping me out My IMEI and service as came back.
..and by the way, I think P500 and P509 are the same.
I got a p500h from my friend since my razr droid died and I needed something to hold me over until I can save up for the note3. It had 2.2 on it so I flashed CM 10.1 for 4.2.2. When I put my sim card in I had no service.
I checked the baseband and it was unknown so I flashed it for v.20 and it appeared but I still get no service.
I don't have gapps installed because I don't really need it.
And that's pretty much it. I can't think of anything else to try, can someone help? I'm using a non-smart phone in the meantime and it is quite terrible.
Try the old Baseband fix, that did it for me some years ago, not sure if you need the v10 baseband coming from 2.2 but the fix should work. You can find it here on the Forum.
If nothing works, use kdz to flash the Stock Rom and start over.

Thanks, I wanted to try that but when I go to download the milk_os fix at the bottom of this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14743798&postcount=2
I get redirected to some bull****(lp.downloadsetup.net)
And I just don't trust this thing, is this really what I'm suppose to download?
Is definitely the fault of baseband. Some rom is incompatible with any type of baseband. Try to download from play store an application with baseband-ril match...

Sounds like you have an old baseband phone, but you flashed a new baseband ROM on it. In that case, simply flash the zip indicated below (I suggest you mount /system in recovery before flashing, even though the script auto-mounts /system, just to be sure). I'm attaching two zips for the sake of completeness; the one you want is the Use_New_BB_ROMS.zip.
Use_New_BB_ROMS.zip -- Flash this zip if you're trying to use a new baseband ROM on a phone that uses the old baseband. If you have no network on 2.3 and above ROMS, your phone probably uses the old baseband, so this is the zip you need.
Use_Old_BB_ROMS.zip -- Flash this zip if you're trying to use an old baseband ROM on a phone that uses the new baseband. If you have no network on 2.2 and below ROMS, your phone probably uses the new baseband, so this is the zip you need.

I tried to flash it but I get an error: can't copy META-INF/com/google/android/updated-binary
Should I be wiping cache for this? Dalvik cache?
I used LGMDP-v1.5 to get bb v.20 on my phone in the first place, I tried to do the same with v.10 after v.20 didn't work but it just went back to baseband unknown. when I tried to download the milk_os fix it just linked me to some phishing page.
What recovery are you using? I've tried with AmonRa & CWM 5.0.2.0 and both work. Other CWM versions will probably work, too. Haven't tried with TWRP.
If this flashed successfully but you still don't have service, then you might have borked something when changing baseband in KDZ. If that's the case, then hopefully others will be able to help you as I've never touched KDZ myself.

I tried it, here's what happened.
First I just flashed it, I checked the baseband, it was unknown. Previously it was v.20 so I tried flashing in v.10 since this was a fix for v.10 AFAIK
Still unknown.
Tried flashing the fix again just to overwrite whatever it needed to overwrite and still unknown.
I'm back to square 1 on this one.

Good day to all, ya'll have changed things a bit it appears since my last visit. Okay I don't know what is going on as I have flashed hundreds of ROM's without issue and this morning Im seeming to have all kinds of issues. Sprint Galaxy S4 rooted and Flashed for Straight talk network. I am having some kinds of problems and am not able to flash any custom ROM's. Ive tried flashing GPE 4.4.4 and Super S4 ROM and Im getting a Footers Wrong error, error #7 and Signature not verified error and then it will reboot back to the stock firmware. So being my bright self that I am I toggled the signature deal in Clockworkmod and flashed it again and the phone rebooted and started up in GPE, but I could not get a data signal nor would it allow me to even turn on the wif-fi. and now Ive got it bricked and hooked up to odin. Any suggestions, comments, beatings or there of the likes. lol thanks guys yall are great.
Custom ROM Issues
Okay good day once again....Okay the phone has booted up completely and with GPE 4.4.4 or what I assume is GPE. I have no service to the device what so ever, but it does saying preparing network in the task bar and has been saying that for 20 minutes now, I still can not turn on Wifi. When I go to about device it says the following Software Version - Unknown Hardware Version - nothing Android Version 4.4.2 Baseband Version- unknown Kernal Version 3.4.0-216929 [email protected]#1 Wed Jul 9 09:03:50 2014 Build Number - SuperS4-1.5(which means it isn't GPE it is Super S4 ROM, which is cool especially since one of your guys I think built it) and everything else their looks normal to me. So any feed back on this post please. I have to be at work in a few hours and can not do without a phone ....
Hello...! I have some questions to you.... Do you try to flash a custom rom from recovery right....?
And it says "status 7 error"?
I think the reason for this is that you are trying to flash a rom that does not match with your phone or it's not singed...! For example you are trying to flash a rom for Samsung Galaxy S 4 GT-I9500...
Difficulty installing a custom ROM on samsung galaxy S4. Pls help
Pls am having difficulty installing a custom ROM on my Samsung galaxy S4 GT-i9500 Verizon. I have already installed a custom recovery(clockworkMod 6.0.4.7) and the phone is rooted. But each time i try to boot into recovery mode this is where am stuck. i cant seem to find the custom ROM i want to flash i mean the zip file cant be seen and its already donwloaded in my phone. I have some custom ROMS already in my phone for flashing but i cant seem to see the zip file in recovery mode. I took a screenshot so you can tell me what the problem is. Thanks
