I went back to a recovery which was my stock phone works now. Thanks, guess Ill try and flash the stable and not the nightly.

Do you have a imei number? Menu, settings, about phone, and status. Your imei number would be there.

[Q] baseband Version Unknown?

Every modem I flash doesn't fix the problem either. IMEI and SIM card is not recognized either.
There's a problem with 1) your carrier, or 2) something is wrong with your sim.

Try ODINing. Had that problem with certain ROMs and Re-Partitioning fixed it.

I lost all my imei, baseband, phone number etc... after flashing to the blaze modem. I still cant figure it out.
Also, why are we supposed/instructed to use the pda option in odin instead of phone?

I did a backup through cwm. I did notice that after odin'ng back to stock, re-route and install of GO V2, everything was fine. Atleast till i restored my backup. I made a backup after flashing the blaze modem so I am guessing it saved that crap in my backup.
Is there a way to leave out that part of my backup? Atleast that way I can still restore all my apps and settings?
There is option for advance restore

Manually restored IMEI and now roaming

So, I used the method posted by PureMotive to manually get my IMEI back without a backup, and it worked. Now my phone just says I'm roaming all the time. I know other people have had this issue as well, but has anyone figured out how to fix it? Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!

I now have the roaming issue fixed, but my issue now is that my 3G drops like after 30 seconds. It doesn't stay connected. It's like it's turning off and on. Any help with that?

Couple things to try:
Odin back to stock and re-provision 1-2 more times. That fixed it for someone.

Well, since I odined back to stock when the problem first came about, I guess I'll have to try reprovisioning some more?

3g Not working cm10

Hey, I flashed cm10 jellybean onto my infuse and 3g no longer works. It shows an "x" in the 3g signal bar. The infuse 3g works perfectly on gingerbread and below with the same settings. Also when searching for network operators it says error unable to connect at this time. Any idea what the problem could be? Many thanks.
Edit: I was able to flash UCKL2 with no luck. Could the kernel have anything to do with it? "UCLB3" is part of the kernel name.
Baseband is uclb3
Try doing another complete factory reset, reflash ROM, kernel, gapps, wipe cache and Dalvik. See if the problem still occurs.

I'm facing the same exact issue with CM9, which I installed yesterday. The 3G band is not working.
Any ideas?

[Q] Roaming help for CM 10.1 Flash PLEASE!!

I flashed CM 10.1 and got some errors about network connectivity, so decided to just go back to my backup of a rooted stock image. Afterwards i still see that i dont have network connectivity, and i am now roaming. I Saw some guides saying to flash back to a stock image. But can i do that with an OTA JB version already? and ive read about just "reprovision my phone", will it work even with the rooted stock image?
Thanks
and my IMEI is still in tact

Have you checked your subscription type on what ever ROM you are on. Also the best method is to Odin root66 and disk the repro vision code

I am on the stock OTA JB from verizon at the moment, and ive tried to do the root 66 and the one i downloaded from doesnt have the .tar.md5 file in it: its was from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762204
and im not exactly sure by what you mean subscription type, and can i just do the reprovision code if im just OTA JB with just root?
Under mobile settings there is an option for CDMA subscription type it must be rui/sim, nit sure if it's on stock though.
Also the repro vision code doesn't work on jb that's why you must go back to root66

After you download the one you linked to me you have to extract the .tar. I assume you know how to do this, but just in case right click the zip and extract all

Yes, stay away from CM 10.1. I lost my MEID from doing it which means the phone wasn't able to make or receive calls.

You can lose that no matter what you flash. That's why all ROMs say to back it up before flashing.

My d2vzw Mobile data won't connect when I have LiquidSmootj 2.37 v4.3 and also won't work on Unofficial Parandroid 4.4.2? I've tried clearing dalvik and regular cache in recovery but nothing... I also restored IMEI but still nothing.. I can still make and recieve calls but no data... I'm running jellybeans rom 4.1.2 and the 4g is exellent and my data seems to be working good but I just wanted to know what's causing the mobile data problem with the 4.3 Roms and 4.4 Roms?

Make a bck up file
try factory reset install liquidsmooth 2.37 gapps 8/13 then u should be fine.. At least i was
U can also try flash bckup file of older version of liquidsmooth 2.9 or 2.10 then flash 2.37 gapps without wiping nothing to see if that works
flash thru recovery
Also check that ur on LTE/CDMA/Evdo/GSM/WCCDMA
good luck

Have you tried pulling the sim for a few minutes and then reinserting and rebooting?
Also maybe flash full mf1 firmware and then the new modem from the 4.3 ota. I think ML1, but double check in the firmware thread over in Android development.
I tried repulling the sim for a few minutes but nothing... I dont really want to do that reflashing all over again so i guess im done... Imma just stay with jellybeans... Anyway, tommorow im getting the new nexus 7 with pure AOSP sooo thank you anyway for your suggestions and I appreciate you guys help

Flashing firmware and modem are really easy. Just download the firmware, flash it, done. No setting rom stuff up. Worth a try if you're at your wits end.
Do i need to factory reset my phone or can i just flash it while im on a 4.1.2 Rom

Just flash the mf1 all in one firmware, clear caches and reboot. Then flash the ML1 modem that is also available in the same forum. No need to factory reset anything. Won't change a thing other than your baseband.
So silly question, but did you check mobile data settings and check to see if LTE/cdma /evdo were selected? Many users are reporting apps are flipping that setting (myself included on liquid) and it requires a manual switch.
