Hi I posted this on another forum but got no solution. Thought I would re-post here to see if anyone here can help.
I've been trying to figure this one out all day. I updated to Cyanogenmod 10.1 from 10 and since the upgrade I've lost my net work. My service bars are there with the roaming notification. I can't make calls or connect to data. I've done the following to try to fix:
Restored from backup
flashed different radios
Odin restore to stock (Jellybean)
Odin restore to original stock
Rerooted
Unlocked bootloader
Flashed cyanogenmod
I've also repaired my ERI using the Samsung repair tool.
After all this I have gotten no where so I must ask for advise. Along with flashing I've done complete factory resets as well. Any thoughts? Thanks
Did you even try looking at ops whole page for help?

If your back to stock then type this in to ur dialer *2767*3855# the same thing happened to me and that fixed it

Thanks for the reply, I was back onto jelly bean so the dialer code didn't work. I'm flashing back to ICS and I'll give it a try.

alright, this is getting very frustrating. I'm having the same stupid problem being stuck in roaming/no data. The only solution I find to fix this problem is to go to stock and then dial *2767*3855#....I flashed to stock, I try the number, but am then told by the operator that if I wan't to place a call, I need a credit card blah blah blah blah. Seriously, let's get a solution to this.

this is not the only solution. after u flash CM10.1 If you remove ur sim card and boot up and connect via wifi, u can then register and set up the phone. then shut down put sim card back in and boot up. go to system settings -> More... under wireless and networks -> mobile networks -> CDMA subscription and choose RUIM/SIM (NOT NV)
This should now let the ur phone have access to the network and get rid of the roaming issue.
Thanks

I searched everywhere to find a the stock 4.04 rom (that wasn't a zip) I could odin in and fix and I had already gone back to the stock 4.1.1 - I didn't know about 4.0 at the time. When I saw your post, I flashed on slimbean 4.3 and before booting I removed the sim, checked the RUIM box, rebooted and profited. Thanks for the post.- even if it was about a year old...

EDIT: RIGHT AFTER POSTING, MY PHONE RANDOMLY STARTED WORKING. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I DID BESIDES POST HERE. MAGIC.
I installed Cyanogen version 7.2.0 just fine using the guide that was found here: http://www.mrmuh.com/2012/01/update-a-motorola-milestone-from-motorola-firmware-to-cyanogenmod-7/
However, the next morning I think I enabled the 2g/3g switch widget - and then my phone entered into a constant and continuous loop of "com.android.phone has unexpectedly closed" - and couldn't connect to cell service.
In a panic, I searched everywhere for fixes. I then tried a few of the fixes which instructed you to download "sqlite editor" and do some edits to the settings file. I did this, along with a couple of other network edits, resetting them to "0" instead of the "1" they were currently set to. No help.
Finally, I went into the Open Recovery system and did a full reset on cache/factory reset/etc. and then rebooted into cyanogen. Now my network won't even connect for a half a second and then crash like before - just straight up NO CONNECTION.
Now I've went through and attempted changing back some of those settings I messed around with in Sqlite - but to no avail.
Anyone with any ideas on how I can get an operating phone again, please let me know. I noticed I still have all my apps from previously, so I don't think I'm really factory resetting the phone. That could be part of the issue, I'm sure....I am very depressed and hoping for a miracle!!
Look into installing minimod recovery and then flashing the correct radio for your location after a full wipe.
If you do a google search you should find minimod. I'm on my phone or I would just link you.

OK Thanks for your reply.
However, randomly, just after I posted this - I looked down and my phone had a full 2G Connection. Went into baseband settings, enabled 850 band 3G, and now I have full 3G connectivity.
I have no clue how this happened. XDA forum is magical?
Thanks again for your reply, but thankfully I don't need the minimod suggestion as of now!!
You're welcome. You might want to go ahead and install minimod though. I made the mistake of not having it installed and flashed a new rom without the ability to select bands and was without a phone all day. It's better safe than sorry.

Go download a apndroid.apk Google it.
that happened to me too
So I started today feeling a little creative so I flashed the newest MIUI ROM, there was a data issue that I tried to work out and in the end screwed everything up.
I lost signal but I have data.
I have tried probably 10 ROMs and the same has happened, I am getting a roaming sign, but it shows I have bars (I am connected to a wireless repeater so full service all the time on 3g).
What in the world do I do? I've seriously tried everything. I flashed back to stock through ODIN and nothing still.
PLEASE tell me someone has seen heard this problem... WHAT DO I DO?
Thanks in advance...
Go to settings - about phone - status and tell us if your IMEI is a bunch of zeros or a string of numbers.

It's not I its still the right one, that was something I checked... I considered doing a IMEI restore anyway and maybe that would fix the problem but I still definitely have it there. Thanks

How I Fixed It
Hey there. Not sure if your still having this problem, but I ran into the same issue with my new phone after rooting, unlocking bootloader, and flashing MIUI. To fix it, I had to odin to stock (Pre-Jellybean for the Samsung Utility), which I got from here: http://hotfile.com/dl/169363562/8975152/SCH-I535_VZW_I535VRALG1_I535VZWALG1.zip.html%20
Then I ran the Samsung Repair Utility from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867442&page=18
The Samsung Repair Utility said my ERI was present and my IMEI was accurate per the back of my phone. Desperate, I ran the "Repair ERI" anyway which made no difference until I followed the OP's directions to dial the code to run the factory reset if the tool didn't work. That seemed to do the trick :victory:
Good Luck.
I did a full wipe and flashed the CM10.1 nightly released for the d2vzw this morning. When it rebooted I had no cell service. Looking in settings i have the proper IMEI number but my cell number is listed as 000-000-1361, MIN is 1361, PRL is 1. what can I do to fix it? I tried restoring a nandroid but the result is the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any one try Odin back to stock?
I have a similar issue and I have been going around and around with it without any luck. I restored my latest backup and I still have 000-000-3257 with a PRL of 1. I will try the ops recommendation and will report back.
Odin to stock is my next move unless someone else can think of something else to try.
Try clearing dalvik cache in recovery. Fixed it for me on AOKP. Had the exact same thing where my phone number was a bunch of zeroes. Still had service though when I hit the home button to bypass the activation screen.

I tried to remove the sim, and boot, and readd the sim and boot but no go. I will try it again but then I think I am going back to stock to see if that works.
Everything still works fine. No need to get worried......it just doesn't report your phone number accurately. Its not like it actually effects functionality. I ran it with an f'ed phone number for 3 days. Everything ran fine. Don't sweat it. If its a problem, wait until tomorrows official nightly comes out tonight and you'll be set.

My issue is it is affecting my functionality. My phone is not working and whenever I call out I get a generic message saying my phone is not active.
I restored a backup from when I first rooted. Now my phone number is listed properly and when I get into a 4G coverage area I can get data, but I still can't call out and it shows I am roaming when I am in a 3G area.
OP on CM10.1 says that dirty flashing Unofficial 10.1 build 12/17/12 will restore data. Any luck with this fix?

I was very unlucky and the dirty flash didnt work for me. However, I did have a backup of my IMEI and was able to flash it back to my phone.
I ran into the same problem after flashing 10.1... lost IMEI and stuck on roaming, had no backup.
To fix it i did the following
1) Odin back to stock
2) use this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867442
3) reprovish the phone using this code in the dialer *2767*3855#
IMEI restored and no longer on roaming

THANK YOU!. I could not get the IMEI/ERI tool to work, but I did get *2767*3855# code to work. I had to roll back to a older version of the official rom (I think rolling back the radio would have been OK) but I am not up and working.

I flashed back to stock as well and then used the same number to reprovision. After that everything worked fine it fixed the roaming, incorrect number, PRL, and all. I never lost my IMEI so I didnt do that step. but if you flash back to the cm 10.1 before they fix the data it will happen again :laugh:

I can't remember for sure, but I think that is something that the VZW tech had me do, and it didn't work. Maybe someone else who is having the issue can test and comment.

So...I went ahead and flashed the Dec 24th official 10.1 release with data working. I flashed with TWRP and it went smoothly. I couldn't activate the phone because it was stuck in roaming. I tried what ever I could do but could not get out of it. So I resorted back to full stock from verizon locking and un-rooting. Did that and I also flashed a stock radio. Still cannot get out of roaming mode.
Any suggestions? Kind of in desperate need of data to get a working phone!
Thanks in advance. I'm sure this problem has come up among many of you.

I thought flashing "[OFFICIAL]CM10.1 Official Nightlies for D2VZW GSIII (12/24 Official Data Works)" was the latest one. How would I go about "fixing" the mobile settings? via the settings menu? I cannot access that menu if I need to go there. I need to get past the activation screen. Also I am not so sure on performing the four corners trick in order to get past that screen.
thanks

i just posted a fix topic for this but here this is how i got mine to work after flashing CM10.1 the 12/24
If you remove ur sim card and boot up and connect via wifi, u can then register and set up the phone. then shut down put sim card back in and boot up. go to system settings -> More... under wireless and networks -> mobile networks -> CDMA subscription and choose RUIM/SIM (NOT NV)

I didnt see a responce from here but ill do my best, flash back to the stock ROM using ODIN and you should be put back into the operating system still in roaming mode then you dial *2767*3855# as soon as you hit the # your phone will download a file and re-provision itself which will fix the roaming error.
I have a SPH-L720 from Sprint, it was running the 4.4.2 stock rom, the phone was unlucked and working under Movistar here in Mexico (i dont have idea of the method used for unlock the phone).
So, yesterday i rooted the phone without problems, installed de CWM recovery, made a backup of my stock rom, wiped data and cache and installed the cm-12.1-20150413-OPTIMIZED-jflte ROM (from this tutorial tinyulr .com/ooqye9s ), the install completed, i started the phone with no problems, proceeded to install the Gapps, and the phone was working good, my network and data worked (had internet, could make calls and send sms), but the phone drained the battery too quick and the camara had some issues, same thing with the dialer (i wasnt able to hang up a call, the red button didn't anything).
So i decided to download the CM Downloader app, search for an update and the app downloaded the "cm-12.1-20150625-NIGHTLY-jfltespr" ROM (i didn't saw or knew about the "JFLTESPR" part), the phone rebooted and installed the update, tha camera and the dialer problem disapeared but the phone didn't recognize the network anymore, it says "No SIM card". i tried to install the cm-12.1-20150413-OPTIMIZED-jflte ROM again, tried to restore the backup of my stock rom, but nothing works, my network s not working and i dont know what to do.
Please help :c
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Check your apn settings. They probably are not set up correctly for your carrier. Go to settings, wireless and networks, more, cellure networks, access point names. Google yourcarriername apn. You can usually find the correct settings there.

Well, you might have to return your device to stock and start all over using Odin. But first see your device's specific forum here,http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint. All and specifically ask your question here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2374543. They are the experts on your device and will be off more help than I.
