Hi all,
So like most of you, I flashed to the newest version of CM (10.1.0.2). After doing that, my phone wouldn't read my sim card, so I tried the latest nightly released on 7/1/2013 and it worked! Only problem....my phone wouldn't make phone calls/texts/ I wasn't connected to the network.
So then I flashed to a stock rom via odin, did a factory reset, and upgraded to the latest OTA. Problem is, I have 4G, I can text, use data, etc. But my phone won't make phone calls. Every time I try, it says "dialing" and then the call ends.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem; does anyone have a solution? I could really use the help.
Thanks so much,
El dep.

I've been chatting with Verizon all morning to figure out how to fix it. I'm in the same boat as you.
Update Verizon is sending me a new phone, i've gone through all of their steps to find a fix, but we can't seem to find one. My phone is stuck in roaming, and we can't seem to get it. So they are sending me a new device. Hopefully you guys will have better luck. I will no longer be placing roms on my new device.

Haha this is just brilliant. I hope you come up w/ a solution. I'll let you know if anything works on my end. Fingers crossed!
This has happened to me several times and I am seeing that other people are running into this problem with no fix found.
Everytime I try to install CM10.2 onto my xt926 I can never get past the unlocked bootloader warning screen after a reboot. I can still access CWM which is the recovery I'm using. I have tried clearing cache, data, factory reset, fixing permissions, reflashing the rom. The only way to get a working phone again is to flash stock 4.1.2 using RSD.
Then I remembered seeing an article a while ago saying that their were two versions of an OTA update for Razr HDs because for some reason their were slight differences between some phones, hardware wise.
Could this be the reason for these random phones not accepting CM10.2 installs?
Also if anyone has any ideas to get past this. I read someone had luck toggling bluetooth on and off for some reason but it didn't help me. I'm at a loss here and would love to play with Android 4.3 but I guess its just not in the cards...
ive got the same problem to i finally decided to get rid of safestrap and unlock my phone. now im stuck on stock rom because no roms will work after a reboot. theres two diferent stock 4.1.2 firmware files. one says mr4 the other one says mr2 anyone know the diference?
Not sure. I just use the RazrHD Utility 1.21 for that, its a lot easier. Also I have heard that 10.1 may work for us, just not 10.2 for whatever reason
Hi all,
I've just bought a new SII Skyrocket to replace my Motorola Bravo -- the bravo was terrible purchase and though the Skyrocket is a two year-old phone I consider this a big step up.
I bought the phone on eBay and it was advertised as new. It arrived in its original packaging with the security seal intact, so I have no reason to doubt this. The phone is running ICS (4.0.4 build IMM76D.UFCLF6).
The phone arrived yesterday and I really like it, but I've encountered a weird issue. If I reboot the phone then it is no longer able to make any sound. Any action that requires sound -- incoming calls, outgoing calls, choosing a ringtone, playing music, taking a picture -- causes the phone to freeze for a minute or more and then become very slow. Rebooting again makes no difference. The only solution I've found is to reboot into recovery and factory reset, though this may only work after several tries.
- Has anyone heard of this issue before?
- Is it likely to be fixed by upgrading to Jelly Bean (I'll install a custom ROM if I can be sure that the phone is working properly) or is this more likely a hardware issue?
Apologies if this question has been answered before. I've searched the forums here and elsewhere, but I haven't found any mentions of similar issues.
Thanks for your help!
Try flashing a stock UCMC1 ROM and doing a factory reset after your flash finished successfully and Odin rebooted your phone.
3 things you need:
1- skyrocket windows drivers from Samsung website
2-Odin
3-stock ucmc1 tar ball.

Good luck.

You don't need to install a custom rom. Try updating to official jellybean with kies, if that doesn't work then try C64's advice above with either UCMC1 or UXUMA7 (uxuma7 is less bloated).
The issue you're having is odd and I haven't encountered it before..

Thanks for the suggestions, C64 and lingowistico. Upgrading to JB was going to be my next move, but I wanted to know if anybody had seen this behavior first. I don't want to mess with the phone too much in case the seller will take it back (I may be on a loser there). I'll try the official upgrade and let you know.
Custom ROM not necessary -- true, but I've been running CM on my bravo for a couple of years and can't go back to a stock ROM. I'll try the de-bloated version of the official JB release, but I'd like something I can have more control over.
Cheers...

when phone is doing odd things the best way to ts is a complete wipe, formatting/removing sdcards then returning to stock w/odin, but you could try the debloated rom 1st just to test it out, if its resolved then its prob not hw related, just make a backup of ur current rom if planning on returning it but since you install an official stock it should also be returnable

Thanks Vincom. I don't have access to a Windows machine at the moment so haven't been able to try the upgrade.
One question -- how is it possible to make a backup of the current ROM without first rooting and installing a custom recovery? I suppose that I could install the custom ROM and create a nandroid backup. Then if I needed to restore I could restore the nandroid and reinstall the stock recovery. Is there an easier way?
Apologies, I just saw that you have information on reinstalling the stock recovery on your Newb Guide.
BTW, I want to say thanks for your work on the Newb Guide. One of the things that sold me on this phone was the support that it has here. Amazing to have all of the information on installing the custom recovery, rooting, etc. all in one place.

I believe I had this kinda issue once before, it was when I flashed CM10 or something. No incoming sound, sound did not work whatsoever, but installed a different kernel solved the issue, or flashing a new different rom.

UPDATE:
So, I managed to upgrade to the official JB 4.1.2 this evening. Had to do it twice.
First time the boot got stuck at the AT&T logo and PC wouldn't detect the device. I followed the directions in another post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34682377&postcount=9 to repeat the upgrade and the same thing happened.
On a whim I decided to try rebooting a few times to see what would happen -- and it worked! Sort of...
I'm repeatedly rebooting the phone and sometimes it will start without problem. However, most of the time it gets stuck when the AT&T logo appears exactly where it should play the start up sound, except it freezes and the sound never plays.
I'm guessing that wiping the data before had nothing to do with fixing the problem and I was simply getting lucky on reboot.
I realize that this is a hard question without having the phone in hand -- but does this sound like a hardware issue?
Thanks again to everyone for their help.
Boot into recovery and factory reset from there. That should clear up the boot loop issue.

Just a quick note to let you know how this was resolved. I returned the phone to the seller who provided a full refund.
Thanks again to those who respondend.:highfive:
Hey there everyone.
I flashed skullface's CM, and one of the bugs is that the vibration isn't working, which I am fine with, but later when I returned to stock firmware, the vibration still isn't working! I tried installing stock 4.1.2 and then upgraded to 4.2.2, still vibration isn't working.
I am pretty sure that it isn't a hardware problem since I don't remember dropping it before the problem appeared, and I am sure I did the flashing steps right. Any help would be truly appreciated.
strange,i i did flash skullface's cm in the past,and my vibration still work afterwards.
try flash again and do a complete wipe,see if it got any change,if not,i think you have to send it to service center(make sure you reset the binary count first)
I tried reflashing the stock multiple times after making sure I wiped everything, I can't return it to the service centre cause I bought it from another country.
So ever since yesterday I've been able to use WiFi. I was chromecasting something and while it was casting my phone went through a reboot, thought nothing of it since its happened lately. Well i think it did it a few times. Well I check my phone after my show is over and my WiFi is off., and I can't turn it on. I rooted my phone last night since it was unlocked already from when I had it rooted before. It's on Android 6.0 right now. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas of how to fix it. I was getting a logcat error in reference to the wifistatemachine.
Did you try flashing an older stock rom?
I have a phone with the same problem and it believe it is a hardware problem because stock and custom kk, lp, and M ROMs do not solve the problem. After swapping out the motherboard, everything was fine.
I have not yet. I was trying to create a nandroid backup first, but NRT doesn't seem to want to let me do that because i don't have a modified boot image.
