I'm having all kinds of trouble with my MT. I originally flashed CM7 from stock with CWM after wiping factory and cache. The flash errored out the first time, but worked the second time. The gapps install errored out so I just tried rebooting without stock google apps. The phone just booted to the Motorola logo and didn't go any farther. I let it sit for over 20 minutes and no go.
I had made a backup so I went back to CWM to restore the phone. Again, I did a factory and cache wipe, ran the restore, rebooted, but now the phone boots to Motorola logo, then reboots into CWM. So weird!
I have a theory that it has something to do with a hardware problem. When I try to flash another rom (besides cm7) the screen goes blank (no text) and then goes back to the root menu. I tried booting to CWM then plugging it in and removing the battery but after an varied amount of time the phone shuts off.
I've searched and searched and I can't find where anyone's had a problem like this and NOT been able to get the phone back. I'd like a solution, but I'd also like to know if i'm the only one who's had this problem!
thanks!
Never mind
I got it working! I tried a different battery in it and it worked! I'm not sure if it was the battery or I just did the right combination of things, but I'm glad to be back! But for anyone who is having the same issue here's what I did:
Running CWM 5.0.2.6
1. Wipe factory/cache/davlik
2. format sd card
3. shut down
4. use pc to copy stock nandroid backup from androidforums (google "stock triumph restore")
5. boot back to CWM,
6. restore the backup and reboot, should work
**IF you have md5 checksum error, use adb via usb to run these commands and immediately try to restore again:
adb shell
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5
# exit
**Make sure to unmount the sd card before restore.
Again, I really don't know if it was battery or not, but I tried this before changing batteries and it didnt work!
But wait, there's more!
Ok, now that I'm able to get back to stock, I'm still unable to flash any custom roms. I wipe/factory reset, format /system, then install update from sd card. When I confirm the update, the screen goes blank (no text), then goes back to the main menu! It does this with any rom!
Any help?
dont think triumph is supported phone according to cwm ?

You want to choose zip from sd card. Not install update

I knew I'd word something wrong
I meant to say that. I did install zip from sd.

Are you running the latest cwm?
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
Yep, 5.0.2.6. I just tried CM7 .04 beta because I have a friend who flashed it successfully on his MT. When I ran it it said it was installing for maybe 4 seconds and then said complete. When I rebooted all I got was the Motorola logo.
I just got this phone. Is it possible that Motorola changed something with the hardware to make it not work?
I've managed to get CWM running a little more stable by replacing the boot.img file with the one from CM7, but all I get when I run the zip is this:
-- Installing /sdcard/CM7.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Install from sdcard complete.
that all takes about 6 seconds and I get just the motorola logo when I reboot.
It still goes blank (no text) when I try to flash any other rom (like stockROM) so something is definitely screwy.
I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I have a friend with a Triumph who successfully flashed cm7. I looked at his phone and found that the model number on his is WX345 while mine is WX435. Maybe my version really does have issues with clockwork?

I did notice that the Triumph isn't listed on Clockwork's site. It is, however, listed on xda. Maybe its not officially supported?
figured it out! It had something to do with the sd card. I was using a 16gb class 10 PNY card. I put the stock 2gb back in it and it worked like a charm. Don't know if it was a defective card or the phone/clockwork just didn't like it.
Bay PONY...Noticed that my pny class 10 16gb was slower(or just took longer to mount and search for media, cause it's bigger) than the 16gb samsung class 2 that came with my epic...Dunno; but glad to hear CWM works! now you can switch back cards
PS. what root method u use command line or gingerbreak?

I've tried both. I like the gingerbreak b/c it adds superuser app for you. Both worked fine though...
But since I installed CM7 I didn't need to root it first.
So I updated my firmware (I was already superCID'd) and then when I loaded a new ROM I had no service. I have tried many different ROMs, radios and the such but have had no luck. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I had issues on mine as well, after reflashing it seemed to behave much better. I had a good download verified by md5, the first flash was successful by every indication, but my signal was non-existent or crap at best. After the reflash it just started working better. Give it a try!
Edit: To clarify, I mean to reflash the firmware, not the ROM. I had deleted the P58IMG file from my SD so I had recopy it over to reboot into bootloader to flash it.

I tried that but it did not work, I dont think it even recognizes that I am on T-Mo because in the settings it says that there are no network operators and all of the network settings are blank.
Have you done a factory reset? I had the APN settings grayed out after flashing a rom. I had to simply go and perform a factory reset and start from scratch. DO NOT ERASE YOUR SD CARD. And make sure you have a rom to flash after you reset your phone.

I tried that but it didnt change anything. I am starting to think it might be something with the SIM card or the phone reading the SIM card because in the settings it says "Please insert SIM" and Wi-Fi calling says "Reading SIM" the whole time.

Do you have another SIM to try? The TMo stores usually are helpful with stuff like that.
Still though, this sounds awfully familiar. I do remember reading something similar about the SIM not being recognized a couple weeks ago when the ICS ROMS first came out but can't remember what threads. Do some forum searches on missing SIM, SIM not recognized, stuff like that and see if anything looks helpful.
Edit: Can't seem to find it now. The only other things I can think of to try is to power off, remove the SIM, power up, let it boot completely, then power off, replace the SIM, and power back up. If that doesn't work, I would try flashing an appropriate RUU from here. Be careful to pick the right RUU for your area and carrier. To flash the RUU, just connect the USB plug from your PC to the phone and doubleclick the RUU exe file to start. It should find the phone and do everything necessary, firmware, radio, partitions, etc. and put you back on a stock ROM. You can flash CWM or 4EXT recovery and then whatever ROM you want.
The one I remember reading about, the guy replaced the Sim card and it fixed his no service issue.

Yes I remember replying to that thread as well. That guy bought that phone on craigslist or something and used his old sim, not the sim that comes with the phone itself.
Go to a tmo store/kiosk at the mall and ask to test out a different sim for the phone and see if that works.
so i had an issue i resolved where my phone was stuck on hboot but i was able to get into recovery and flash cm7 nightly and now my phone boots but it doesnt recognize my tmobile sim card and i cant access a network. i used the ace hack kit to remove carrier lock. i also tried installing other roms and they all dont recognize the sim card. help please!

Make sure that the back door (SD card and sim) is ok. Many times when the back door is pulled the phone won't recognize the sim card.
it seems intact, the sd card slot works fine. and my sim card works on my other tmobile phone. also another issue, my device is always running on safemode, i have tried installing other roms and also reverted back to stock but it is constantly running on safe mode. is there a way i could revert back to complete factory origninal settings and start a new clean root process?

Try using Gene Pole's method to return to stock...

See if that is working. The other way is using the Hack Kit to revert to Stock and S-ON...then you can start from scratch...
Hi everyone.
Let's start from the beginning, and by advance excuse me for my poor English : I happen to be a delighted owner of the Oneplus One by the Oneplus company. I've flashed different versions of cyanogen on my phone, rooted it multiple times and I never encountered any kind of problems. Thus, until I decide yesterday to flash the latest release of cyanogen, cm13 (nightly). I did some researches, followed the usual steps, flashed the right opengapps version along with cm13 and.. everything went great. Except that my phone couldn't resolve himself to detect my SIM card anymore. I tried different things in order to solve the problem, including re-wipe the phone "factory reset" style, removing SIM card, wait for the phone to cool down and played with data roaming, but nothing worked. Fortunately I had my fresh nandroid backup waiting to be restored. That's when the real deal start :
even after having restored the full nandroid backup (which make me downgrade to cm12.1), the SIM card wasn't detected.
So I decided to wipe data, dalvik, cache and system, in order to get my phone back to its original state. But the problem remains, and worst of all, the phone now tends to reboot punctually without any reasons.
I surely did something wrong for the phone to end in this state, but I can't see what..
I use TWRP 2.8.7.0 custom recovery, and the phone OS is now cm12.1-YOG4PAS3JL.
Oneplus One 64GB.
Sorry for the length of the complaint, and by advance thanks for your answers.
P.S : I did tried to search for similar threads in the forum, but I didn't manage to found anything that was directly related.
It could be an issue with the modem not being flashed properly when you went from Lollipop to Marshmallow due to TWRP 2.8.7.0. Try TWRP 2.8.6.0, and then either restore the nandroid backup or clean wipe + reflash CM13 nightly.

Thanks a lot for your response. I've been searching a lot and the problem effectively seems to be the modem not being flashed properly. So I tried to flash it manually, (found the file 2 threads higher, sorry I can't post links yet) via fastboot and then flashing cm13 (with twrp 2.8.6.0), considering the fact it seems to have worked for others.
But no matter what I do, the issue remains : the phone isn't able to detect SIM card and goes into crash, rebooting every 2mn..
I've tried to flash cm13 unnoficial version by sultan, following his instructions, but no improvement either.
Even my nandroid backup (running cm 12.1) can't detect SIM anymore, have serious wifi connectivity issues, and keeps rebooting randomly at very reguliar intervals..
I'm really beggining to feel hopeless,
but thanks again for your time and your advices, really apreciate it.
It seems that I have same problem..... after flashing CM13 and restoring backup
Any progress with this problem?
Edit - If my phone is connected into PC with USB cable it doesnt restarts

Same for me, the phone stops crashing and rebooting randomly once connected to pc via USB cable. But still doesn't recognize SIM card. Wifi also seems to work better.
No further progress unfortunately, I've tried everything, from restoring the phone to its factory state to flashing all "stable" roms (cyanogen), nothing worked.

Already saw it, but thanks ^^ that's where i found my file modemst.bin
so did it work for you ?
The same thing happened to me last week. I was using Materialized TWRP 2.8.7.0, which I think caused issues with my updating of Sultanxda's 13.1 ROM. SIM card was never detected, phone would restart shortly after every boot. I tried everything I could find to get my baseband and IMEI back.
In the end, only this solution worked for me, and I had to do it twice. I don't know why.
I had the same problem. I got back to TWRP 2.8.6.0 and then flashed the latest CM13(wiped System). after that without wipe i flashed sultans's CM13 then gapps and got the sim working again.

I've tried multiple times, it doesn't work. SIM card is not recognized, phones goes to reboot after 30s of use.
Whatever rom I flash the problem ain't solved, even after factory reset from original OS (cm 12.1)..
I really begin to think there is no solution, I've tried to flash my phone at least 20 times with different roms, fix, firmwares, modem, everything that is available on the net and I couldn't notice even the slightest change in the comportment of my phone.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your proposal, I guess it HAVE to work, but for some irrational reason it doesn't...

Did U flash over TWRP or ADB?
Just popping in to say I have the same problem. I'm trying the various solutions presented in the thread and I'll come back and report if anything worked. I would also appreciate any other suggestions that you may have
For the record, I got into this predicament through the following steps:
1. I was flashing some CM nightly (sorry, I don't remember which one), and after reboot the touch screen didn't work anymore
2. I flashed the OxygenOs .zip that I had saved on internal storage through TWRP
3. After flash touch screen worked but no sim detected
4. Flashed CM 12.1 still no sim
5. Flashed back to OxyOs, still no sim. Curiously I am unable to reboot via software.
Anyway, I basically have all weekend to work on this, so awayyyy we go!

<Edit>
Wow that was fast. I followed this guy's instructions (fastboot flashing modemst, then CM12.1) and it seems to be working like a charm! Good luck everybody else!

I flashed via TWRP(2.6.8.0) and via ADB for modemst1.bin and modemst2.bin.
By the way, there's a little improvement : I flashed kalkulin's_stock_OPO Rom and that stopped my phone from rebooting.
Now cm13 is running kinda fine, except it still doesn't detect SIM card, even after reflashing modemst1 and modemst2
Edit : When I try to flash oxygenos, oneplus fix or cm12.1, (roms that are supposed to fix sim detection problem), it doesn't work : Error flashing Zip file. via adb or twrp, that's the same. (excepting the fact that error in adb is about trustzone)
I think my efs partition is somehow corrupt, and unfortunately i have no way to restore it.

It's not supposed to be flashed. Unzip the archive on a Windows PC, then use the .bat files in there to fix your phone.

Effectively, I kinda did things completely wrong there, sorry. (I'm an exclusive linux user for my defense ^^)
Okay guys, I finally solved my problems.
Here's what I did to fix reboot crashes and SIM detection issues :
-Flash TWRP(2.8.6.0)
-Wipe everything except internal storage
-Flash Calkulin's_Stock_OPO_XNPH44S_ROM_v1.0.zip (can't post links yet, sorry)
-Boot system
-Once done, reboot to bootloader (in command prompt : sudo adb reboot bootloader)
-In command prompt, type the following commands (It will delete modem and /persist partition ! be careful) :
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase persist
-If you need to fix "Unable to mount /persist" error in TWRP :
adb shell
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15
-Flash Oxygen OS (i flashed oxygen_1.0.0_flashable.zip)
That should restore EFS and fix the issues.
Well, that was kind off a pain in the ass, but now my problem is solved, and i'm currently running cm13 quite fine.
Make a backup of your EFS partition.
Thanks to all the people that helped me by posting in this thread !
It's a nightly build, it bound to have some problems.
i am having bootloop issue, tried many roms, erased partition too, still no use. continuous bootloops

I don't know, but I tried to install AEX as soon as I unlocked bootloader, and I wasn't successful after that. Also wasn't successful with that method for some freaking reason, I think 20 minutes of waiting at first boot should be more than enough.
1. Turned USB debugging on
2. Took out the whole SIM/microSD tray
3. flashed RETUS using erase bat and rebooted to bootloader
4. I booted the wrong twrp image (unofficial) but rebooted to bootloader right after and booted on normal one, formatting System, Data, Cache and Internal Storage and using Format Data option
5. Flashed copy-partitions-AB.zip using sideload and rebooted to bootloader to come back in
6. Wiped System, Data, Cache and Internal Storage, went to bootloader to fastboot erase userdata and booted back to TWRP
7. Flashed ROM and TWRP-installer in this order using sideload
8. Wiped System, Data, Cache and Internal Storage, went to bootloader to fastboot erase userdata and booted back to TWRP
9. Flashed Magisk also using sideload
10. Changed to SLOT B and rebooted to system while the tray was still out
It's since been 20 minutes and 1 restart (only after the 20 minutes to see if it'd change anything)
For some freakish reason I followed #138's instructions to a T and it worked, booted in around 4 minutes (Though I also did it with SIM tray off, and after rebooting to install Gapps and Magisk it booted in less than a minute, looking great for this ROM)
EDIT: It couldn't recognize SIM for some reason, so I'll try reflashing without Gapps or something. Also didn't work, will try my brother's SIM tomorrow (Also the home button doesn't quite work? At least without gapps, for some reason) and the borders are messy, clock and battery circle are way too much to the side. Notifications don't work too, and I don't quite have a Quick Settings. (If it changes anything I was RETBR before)
Apparently my SIM died, yeah... Also doesn't work on stock Or not since it still works on other phones, but I can't get SIM cards to work, at least on stock... (This is also from RETBR img, so that wasn't the problem)

So yeah, after many tries of installing Custom ROM my device doesn't recognize SIM cards anymore... It can still recognize microSD and they still work on other phones, I have no idea if this is a software or hardware problem (They worked every time I had to go back to stock while doing it, up until my last successful attempt at installing CrDroid official by @Rondeau79, sry for the tag)
EDIT: I only saw this thread afterwards, but unless I'm dumb it didn't work
(Already tested both slots after running those commands, none of them works)

After the whole custom ROM fiasco I went back to stock, and if reflashing stock on fastboot works I did that many times with the SIM on another phone, still nothing
Okay, maybe this is some insight. I can't check any IMEIs on it at all, though on my old phone I can even check IMEI2 when I only have one card. If it was a number ban it shouldn't work on my G5 with Custom ROM, but on the other hand if it was an IMEI ban it should still work on a fully stock G7 Play I have. And there's "Baseband: (not found)" on fastboot. Any way I can fix IMEI or something?
EDIT: If I run fastboot getvar all I can still see IMEI though, so maybe they just changed it on newer phones ;-;
