No service

I was on BMc's AOKP for about a month. The GPS was pretty crappy (universal problem I guess) so I flash the GPS fix posted in the dev section. This made my GPS worse, however the rest of my phone was still fine. Since I was going to flash a new ROM to get my semi-working GPS back, I decided to try something new so I flashed the newest stable build of paranoid android to try out hybrid. The phone booted up and then got stuck at activating, I just let it run through and it told me it couldn't activate blah blah blah. From that point on I was out of service. I flashed back to AOKP, still out of service. I Odin'd back to root66, this sent me into a bootloop. So I went though and Odin'd the bootchains -> root66 -> factory reset and the phone booted up just fine. However, I still don't have service. I do have 4g and I can receive text messages, I just can't make/receive calls or send text messages. Also, my IMEI and phone number are correct on my device. Here's a summary:
Reverted back to root66, locked bootloader
IMEI and phone number are intact
Have 4G internet, and can receive text messages
Cannot make or receive calls
can't send text messages
Is my SIM card borked? I'm not sure what else it could be. Thanks.

Not yet, I wanted to eliminate as many possibilities that could be attributed to flashing before I went to them. But if it is just a SIM issue I was going to have them reset it and see if it works.

[Q] hi all having issues after restoring imei and eri

I recently flashed from clean rom to paranoid and lost my imei. After doing some researech was able to get both imei and eri restored. I used a method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1867442 but still unable to recieve calls and text 4g is fine.
service state in service
roaming not roaming
mobile net work state connected
my phone number is correct
min number is a number i dont reconize 7722167376
eri version 5
imei number is correct from the back of my phone
I am thinking I need to flash back to stock in order to make that phone call to activate my phone but i want to do this as a last resort. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I hope I may have missed something in the hidden settings when i used *#22745927 and **22745927. Can someone tell me what my settings should be and thank you again.

You're right about needing to go to stock. You're going to need to go to stock ics and dial the reprovision code

Do you know where I can flash a stock is rom and can I do it in recovery and maintain root.

never midf was able to get it working flashed a rooted stock ics rom. Now im flashing back to clean rom hope I can just do a restore and everything will be back to normal. No more aokp roms for me.

You need to back up your imie now that you're fixed before flashing anything. You can lose it no matter what you flash.

Lost my phone number

But I still have my IMEI. I just flashed CM10.1 and now my phone number is gone and I can't get data. I can still text and make phone calls. When I go to about phone - status my MIN says unknown and so does the ICCID. I read that flashing the latest modem would fix it but it dident for me. Any suggestions?

If it was the official 12-18 you flashed, data is broken on it. Discussion is here Mastamoon posted an unofficial build with working data you could try flashing or dirty flash back to 12-17 theres a couple ppl with this issue in there

I had the same issue, been trying to fix all day.
Check this out - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867442
I couldn't get the IMEI/ERI tool working on my rom (I think the radio wasn't compatible) and I had to roll back to a older version, but after using *2767*3855# my phone reset and it is fully functional.
How did the VZW rep that I spoke to for over an hour not know about this?!

Did you tell the rep that you rooted and flashed a custom ROM on your phone? And even if you did, I doubt a rep would tell you to flash something with ODIN to go back to a previous version.

Q] Synergy Rom mobile Data

I can't post in the developer forum because of my post limit.
I know this question has been asked before but i admit i don't understand the responses.
I am using Synergy Rom r257 and my mobile data just turned off overnight. I haven't been able to get it back. My IMEI and ERI are still ok an calls come in and go just fine. But under my phone status i have no IP address and i made sure that CMDA/LTE have been checked off.
I have tried to toggle data and airplane mode, I also flashed r257 again. I did not use TB to restore my files after installation and did it all manually.
It was working fine for a few days. I am not sure if this matters but i have noticed since i installed that whenever I hung up the from a phone call it would say no sim on the call screen.
any advice would be appreciated

updating the baseband got me on 3g. baseband vrblk3.
but my network type under settings still says unknown.

I'd like to say first.
That I bought my phone off Craig's list already rooted running taste of bean (cool story, I know)
First thing I did was flash miui ROM. And had 4g. A few hours later I noticed I had no 4g? So I'm texting the dude about it and he is clueless then I notice I lose texting.
I nandroid back uped into whatever he had made (stock rooted)
And it claimed I was in roaming.
(No data, text, call)
Edit : this method may work for your purpose.

Only fix was for me to Odin stock unrooted and dial the factory reset number. I am terribly sorry as I forget the number off the top of my head. *27 something
Afterwards my phone was perfect and went on rooting
I know a lot of this seems tedious, but I'm a noob and this is the best answer I have.
Hit the thanks if I pointed you in the right direction.

[Q] At a loss, data but no voice/sms

I was running the latest stable version of CM10.1 on my GS3 and all was going well until someone sent me a text message and I tried to respond. I was greeted with the error of message not sent. I attempted to text someone else to have the same error. Attempting to call someone will just hang and eventually say call failed.
I thought it was a radio issue so attempted to flash different modems but had the same result. So I restored my previous rom Beans 11 that was working after wiping and the same issue. Data works perfect, but voice and text does not. I searched and odin'd back to stock VRLG1 and entered *2767*3855# in hopes of that fixing the problem, again no voice/text.
Any suggestions further help? I don't know what else to try!
*CM10.1 was working fine, and then calls/texting stopped but data continued to work without trouble.
*IMEI seems to be intact
*Flashed backup of known working rom and issue still persists
*Flashed back to VRLG1 and attempted *2767*3855# as per another post to no avail and this is where I sit.

Same thing. Installed jellybeans 12 now I can't call or text. Prior text was hit and miss some days....restored stock rooted image flashed other Roms....no help. Dialed the ** number....so screwed. Ayneegry should have backed up my few several times. No idea what to do.

When you say "Data" do you mean wifi or 3g/4g? If you have no phone/text/3g/4g then it's probably your imei. Check under phone settings, see if it's gone. If it's gone you gotta restore, do a search.
If you have 3g/4g then I don't know what the problem is. Sorry, just trying to help

Odin back to ICS and reprovision your phone by going into the dialer and typing *2767*3855#

rgrossie - data as in 3G/4G works no problem... phone showed IMEI still there but followed a thread to restore it anyway to make sure that wasn't the issue...
Edgehood -- I've tried that, and that's where I currently sit, stock ICS with 4G data but doing the re-provision doesn't seem to fix anything -- occasionally a text will slip through, but I'm unable to reply

I hear ya, if I can't figure out what's up, I'll end up having to go back to verizon and see what I can do... It was out of the blue, everything was working and then suddenly it just stopped. Happened on a flash that was a little over a day old, so who knows.

Check Mobile network
I have thiss problem happen occasionally when I flash custom roms. Look under your mobile networks, see if either CDMA/SIM is checked or NV. If NV is checked switch to CDMA/SIM and then reboot. That seems to fix that problem most of the time.
Edit: After some tests found out this doesn't always stick, but I did find out that after switching from NV to CDMA/SIM turn on airplane mode so the radios are tunred off, wait a few moments, then turn airplane mode off. That worked more consistently than restarting it.

Did you ever fix this? I currently have the same problem and have no idea what to do.

i had the same problem but a imei/efs restore fixed it. My imei was not missing but data worked and not calls or text. Changed sim and still same, even odined back to stock and unlockex and rooted no luck restored nandroid no luck. Then restored synergy imei/efs backup and good to go. Hope it helps.
Cruzin' tha Galaxy SIII via Obsessed Rom / "INAPPROPRIATE" Kernel

I had the same issue two days ago when I flashed to the latest MIUI Rom. Here's how I fixed it.
Go into settings, mobile networks, make sure subscription is set to SIM. After that open the phone, type *#*#4636#*#* make sure it's set to LTE/CDMA/AUTO
Reboot phone and all should be well.

If you Odin back to the original stock unroofed ROM, you'd have to take all the ota Verizon updates to vmf1. Then reset your phone.
Pain in the a$$ but has always worked for me. I had same problem running carbon.
I read in another post that Odin back to root66, them reset your phone would work too.
