Since I do not have enough posts to ask on the developers thread, I was wondering what modems i could flash on SlimKat because i have not been able to send long texts. I tried using both the padded modems for newer roms as well as the GB/Froyo modems and i wouldnt get any signal at all and it said that the baseband version was unknown when trying to flash either. Any ideas?
You're in the right forum -- the development forums are generally reserved for active development, not questions about how to use what has been developed. We're a little "sloppy" here because the SGS4G community has gotten a lot smaller in the past few years, but still a good habit to get used to.
@FBis251 maintains a repository of modems, padded for the various ROMs.
Try the various ones and see what works well for you.

Thanks! I tried all of the modems except for the cm7 but when i get more time or when i get frustrated with not being able to send long texts i guess i know where to look.
So i tried all different types of modems and no matter what i would get "unknown" for the baseband version and i would not get signal.

Have you also lost your iemi numbers?
When i reflash the rom (which recovers the modem to kj6) then i would would get signal again so i take it that my imei numbers are still intact. I also have used odin to flash modems before and it always worked with the kj6 rom (with any other modem).

I would suggest using recovery (TWRP or CWM) to flash the padded modem file, less room for error. I use the KJ5 Modem which works for me, had the same issue with long texts on KJ6.
I did try it at least twice on TWRP with the same results... Were you on SlimKat/BeanStalk(4.4.2)?

Yes, Slimkat. Flash the ROM. Then go back to recovery and flash the modem file of your choice. You should be able to then confirm in your Settings-> Status screen. You should see the baseband change, if not there is something wrong.

I flashed the KG4 padded modem and i am still getting an unknown baseband after letting my phone sit for about 5 minutes after flashing.
Did you check to see if there is anything under your APN... Settings>mobile networks>Access Point Names...maybe add it manually if there is nothing there.

I did not, but would anything show up if the Baseband is saying unknown? I am back to the stock modem (kj6) because i needed to get my signal back.
Edit: So the problem still isnt solved, but long texts are sending (before i would get an error message saying failed) so i dont need to worry changing the modem anymore. Thanks for helping guys even though it didnt work out!

Had the same thing happen to me. Kept asking and received the answer that worked for me. Just make sure your CWM or TWRP recovery images are updated to the very latest. Should work. Been testing modems back and forth for a couple days now. Still getting sudden signal drops though. I wondering if T-Mobiles update to their towers isn't compatible with our hardware. Seems coincidental that many had this problem start right around that time. Trying to force us to upgrade devices tailored to their services provided...haha anyways...I'll stop ranting now

Just use a file manager to copy the modem.bin file to /radio/
I tried flashing from TWRP and got the unknown baseband error as well. Manually copied it over and all is well now.
The modem installer zips were written for ICS roms. They might have worked on some JellyBean roms but I definitely never tested them on KitKat. @Dwack has the right method for this though, copying by hand should work fine since that's all the .zip files do.

No, I was using the Samsung PST software. It downloads the software to 100%, then an error dialogue box pops up.
I have the "unknown baseband" problem, and I think it's failing right at the very end as it's trying to flash the modems.
Sorry for the multiple posts--this topic is being discussed in a lot of different threads, and I feel like I'm the only one who can't get it to work successfully.
Baseband Radio
Ok so this is a noob Q. Is the baseband what gives my charge Signal?? Ive been having problems with dropped calls and lack of network stablility would this fix it and can i upgrade to ee4, root flash roms and kernels and still keep the new baseband? Thanks...

In a nut shell, YES. Once you get yourself to an ED1 or ED2 stock or rooted state, you should then be able to accept the OTA EE4 update which will update your radio. Just make sure you are not on a custom rom when you update. So, stock rooted ED1 or ED2, then update. Just apply the OTA, then your favorite root kernel. If you want a custom rom, pick one that is made for the EE4 update. However, you will not lose the radio/baseband update as the custom roms and kernel's don't touch the radio area.
Good luck!!
Thanks youre the only who answered any of my posts...lol I was thinking maybe I had to know someone

Did you take Sim Card out? Heres i what i did.
as soon as i put the phone in download mode ( you know yellow triangle?) i inserted the battery, make sure its fully charged and make sure you take the sim card out. So i inserted the battery back in and pressed the button to start flashing the ED1 file. I tried to flash the ED2 thats on the list but that file is borken i think.
Please continue this discussion in the thread linked in Post #1 so that everything is in one place.
Hey guys,
I'm looking for a little help here. My Skyrocket seems to be having radio/modem issues.
Instead of having a symbol that displays cell signal, I have a circle with a line through it. This is true with or without a working SIM inserted. For baseband version it says "unknown".
I've tried flashing to stock and that didn't seem to make a difference. I got this phone second hand so I don't know if the previous owner tried to flash an incompatible rom and borked up the radio firmware possibly?
Any thoughts about what I can try?
That all depends on which method and tar you used. Some tars dont come with the radio. and with the wrong radio on a rom you will get a RIL mismatch and no signal

So I'm unsure how it got to its current state. (meaning the circle with a line through it) To return to stock I used the K0nane tar that's in the sticky in the dev section. I don't know if that has a radio in it or not but flashing that didn't seem to change things.

That doesn't have a radio in it. Look in your "about phone" and tell me what your baseband and android version says.
After that I will probably say to flash the sammobile tar...
Also, Did you have the correct plan added to your service when you switched phones?
baseband version = unknown

Right..
Assuming your plan has been provisioned for the new lte phone, I would flash the sammobile tar in odin
I'm going to give that a try. I suppose I'll just search for sammobile?
The SIM i'm using was provisioned for my previous Skyrocket. I ended up trading that but used the same sim in my new phone. So, I'm assuming the SIM/my account should be proivisioned for LTE since I never had AT&T change anything on their end.
And just to clarify, this doesn't really seem to be a "no service" type problem since its as if the radio isn't even recognized by the hardware.

Lol, I appreciate the helpful info in your reply. Just so you know, I don't seem to be having the same issue as any other post that I've seen. Unlike the other posts I've read, I don't have "no sim" or no signal, or no LTE. My problem almost seems like an issue with the SIM slot itself. I think I can rule that out because I've actually replaced the SIM slot with a known good SIM slot. The other reason I think I can rule this out is because I am unable to access the radio related content from within the service menu. Unfortunately I don't think there will be a :oof:: that fixes what I have going on. (I wouldn't mind being wrong on this)
So I flashed the sammobile tar (multiple times) but no luck. The baseband version still reports as "unknown". What's more, my phone reboots after about 15 or 20 seconds. Very odd. Any other thoughts on things to try?

I'm going to try the multiple suggestions I got and report back. I'm also attaching the "screen shots"
Hopefully the attachments are here
I flashed EFSFix through CWM and then SAMMOBILE tar through ODIN. No luck, but ODIN did take about twice as long as it did the first time I tried flashing the sam .tar. Same symptoms, circle with a line through it and phone reboots itself after about 20 seconds. The baseband version still reports as "unknown".
I flashed back to stock through ODIN, flashed CWM with ODIN, and then flashed EFSFix again. Same exact results as the first time.
Next I flashed back to stock using ODIN, and flashed UCLE2 ROM through ODIN. Flashing this causes the reboot issue to go away, but the radio issue remains. (I thought to try the UCLE2 ROM because that's what was loaded when I first received the phone and the phone wasn't rebooting itself then)
Hi,
I'm trying to find specifically the right radio for rogers, for the infuse 4g.
I checked the "please have a look @ those threads b4 start new one" and none are related.
I've seen the full list of basebands, they look amazing, all those letters and numbers. But I have NO clue how to interpret which one is which. And i'm sure someone here will slap me a picard facepalm... ascii style... Or equivilant... maybe even a twihard facepalm...
However, i'm kinda needing this radio...asap... as I have no working radio on the infuse4g and its for work... the simcard does work in a sony erricson x1... 3g at least.. and that is for work, but I need the new one working asap...
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I don't just want to try every single one... and test radio range... etc... I'm needing kinda to get this perma working, immediately...

Trying it now, hopefully I get something, and i'm redoing the apns fresh hopefully that fixes it.... oi...
After some testing, it clearly still didn't work... I found out the why...
From my personal gnex, I threw its sim into the phone, and voila...signal... Problem isn't entirely the modem (more of identifying which is better). I even tried a gnex modem... (not kidding, it worked... oddly?).
Basically seems my corporate account messed up things.. and I can't fix it until tuesday 6am my time (canada holiday weekend...yay)
Thank you ALL for the support thoroughly.
I have a Rogers Infuse 4G and it I don't think I did any official updates to it. It had UXKG3; I just finished flashing up to CM10 and am now using UCLB3 which I think may have some signal issues for me out here but still in the process of testing.
I did a full backup using CWM as well as backing up my EFS... I don't know if that was before or after my modem changed, but if the UXKG3 modem isn't available online and you can tell me how I can "rip" it out of my backup files, I'll surely provide it to you since I too am thinking of going back to it if it turns out UCLB3 isn't doing too well.
I have seen posts that other people are having trouble switching modems on cm10, maybe it could be done with 7 zip before you flash. Also you need to hit menu button then select save then reboot after changing APN.
The problem flashing modems on CM10 are fixed... it was because of a new filesystem format for the /radio mountpoint and a different method of flashing the new modem. There are some modem threads here:

I've tried several modems, and each time I go flash it the installation of the modem fails. Is there some specific modem I have to have for a specific rom, or a specific way that I have to flash the modem? I don't like using Odin, because I'm not very familiar with it. But is that the only way to actually flash the modem?
Any help is greatly appreciated. The reason I need to flash the modem is because I am not able to text or call at all after installing the MOAR rom, backups that I created beforehand don't work either, conveniently.
Actually you can download it to your phone and flash it to recovery as invisblek has created recovery flashable versions of all modems. So it is really easy.

I've been using Invisiblek modems, none of them have been recovery flashable for me. Do you have a link to these that are recovery flashable?
I'm assuming they probably are, and I just have a lemon of a phone, which appears to be the case. Samsung always has issues when modifying phones, I've never encountered such issues, until I encountered my first Samsung.
It's confirmed I just have a melon phone, used odin to flash a modem.
Well flashing a modem did absolutely nothing. It amazes me that there is no fix for this issue at all. It even corrupts your back ups, which is insane. So much for having a back up to bail you out of trouble. I'm getting a bit frustrated here, is there anyone else who knows how to fix this issue with being unable to text or call anyone?

First lets establish some basics.. Since the custom ROMs don;t mess with the modem, what modem do you have installed? Check it on the settings/about phone page.
If its not the latest OEM Verizon VRBMB1... , how did it get on there?
I highly recommend using ODIN to flash back to OEM stock and check your signal on that setup. You will lose root, but it will fix most storage issues and force your modem back to the correct setup.
What recovery are you using ? CWM or TWRP? what version?
WHen you get back with that info, then we can help.

Well, DroidStyle's Guide has the VRALG1 file linked via Invisiblek's Goo link. I haven't downloaded it in ages though but I do have a personal copy of VRALF2 or VRALG1 on my computer.
No, a signal is not required. I have helped plenty of people who had no signal early on when AOSP 4.2.2 first started due to a loss of IMEI. The steps I listed in my prior post are the preferred steps to resolve a loss of IMEI which has similar issues: no data, texts, or calls.

current I'm on the OEM 4.1.1 with no room, no bootloader unlocked, baseband version is i535VRBLK3
No more recovery on the phone, all has been wiped and flashed back to stock oem 4.1.1, to no avail issue is still persisting.

gb uses rfs - samsung partition. jb moves the partitions around so the emei may seem lost. that's why i think when you go back to gb, it is found again. i think the same can happen to miui and cm7 flash
i've read flash jb 2 or 3 times may also work..idk..can't vouch for that
here is 2 posts in the general section that address the null emei issue...idk..it may help.

you can also try flashing another device's modem you wanted and report back. the worse that can happen is you sending the phone to the repair guys for a jtag flash for bricking it if odin or heimdall wont bring it back

You have left out a lot of details.
Your question was originally about flashing another modem.
Then it turned to missing or corrupt emei.
Is hard to tell a problem when there is not enough detail about how you got there.
Aside from making sure you have the correct apn, until you provide further detail about what happen to your phone, it is unlikely you will have further inputs..
The original answer to your question about flashing another device modem on to the infuse: is not something I would recommend or attempt myself.

yes you right, i change the subject a little, but I had made a post with this problem and there was no response, so, I hope these details are sufficient:
_i was using the 4.2.2 rom slim 7.8 jb for a long time, then i took a trip to a mountain, poor coverage, so, theres a friend who take my cel and she put it in a box full of moisture and strong products such as alcohol (to cure) and it was a little wet and then when i got back to my city, i pass from poor signal to no signal, baseband unknown and ime unknown, but suddenly, every 4-5 days, the signal go back for a instant, and i receive old sms and missed calls, and i get back the baseband and imei for an instant, but then, gone again

this may be hardware issues ex: sim card reader, sim card, connection in phone, antennae etc
especially true when it was running well and then you got it wet and it would read periodically
try disassemble all the phone parts completely, clean off all parts and connection with strong cleaner, dry it in silica, rice, beans for a few days and reassemble.
