I was very frustrated at my inability to load anything on my Galaxy Y Duos (GT-S6102) without getting Low Memory errors, so I looked through several forums and found GingerIceJelly. The reviews and posts seems positive and I downloaded it. I had previously rooted the phone with no problems, and have loaded Custom ROMS onto other phones in the past.
I followed all the instructions provided and the load was successful, but I am no longer connecting to any service on either SIM. The Baseband version did not change, and everything else runs fine.
I did not make a back up of the Stock ROM before I started (I know... bad).
I need to know if I can fix the connection issue, or if someone can point me to a copy of the stock ROM. The only thing I've been able to find was a link to Hotfile.com which is now closed due to piracy. The Stock Rom version is S6102XXKL8 (Romainian I think)
Any and all help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I apologize in advance for any "noobish" questions, but I'm new to rooting... and if a solution to my issue is out there, please point me in the right direction - I've seen many people having different approaches to this type of issue, therefore I would like some help getting on the right track
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 I747M which I have successfully rooted ( I think! ) and installed a custom recovery, but I am still encountering issues flashing custom ROMs...
To get in details to what I did ( chronological order )
- I followed all steps given in this site - http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s3/
( looked simple enough in comparison to other processes I've found )
All went has planned until I had to install a custom ROM - CM10 wouldn't install at all and LiquidSmooth would install, but multiple apps wouldn't work properly.
Lucky me, I had done a backup of my current ROM before flashing a custom ROM, therefore I was able of going back to the Rogers ROM.
I assumed the issue would be due to the CWM version not being compatible with CM10 ( and maybe that ws the case with Liquid ) so I ended up installing GooManager and changing my Recovery Mod to TWRP. The issue of not being able of flashing custom ROMs persisted.
So I ended up following what Mr. Robinson posted on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
-With Odin I flashed my phone with root66_RWC_I747MVLDLK4.tar.md5
-after reboot GooManager was still installed ( obvious ) so I attempted multiple times to flash custom ROMs without success.
I have removed my external SD card, rebooted and removed battery, etc.
I have been getting in most cases "Status 7" as a error message when trying to flash custom ROMs.
I have SU installed, I have done the "fix permissions",...
What am I doing wrong and/or what am I missing in this process to be able of flashing custom ROMs?
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in Advance!!
I've also noticed that I have multiple "0" folders in the SD card. For my understanding this is due to trying to install a 4.2 with an old CWM version...
Is it possible that this is what initiated the whole issue?...
So, after searching for a bit I resolved all my issues.. I'm going to post what I did and my current setup in hopes to help other people who have been having trouble getting their Canadian galaxy S3 rolling with a custom ROM. This should apply to any i747m devices, but I have the Rogers one...
For my understanding the beginning of my issues was flashing an old version of CWM. Try to always flash the latest version of CWM or TWRP. I'm currently using the TWRP 4.3.3 WITHOUT ANY ISSUES.
I then flashed AOKP on JB 4.2.1. My phone has been working perfectly since then (besides for some minor known bugs) - make sure to do all the wipes advised on any ROM instructions and you should be fine. You will also need to change the Internet provider settings to reflect your speed and provider.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting a follow-up on how you solved your issue. I'm looking into rooting and custom-rom-ing my Koodo GS3 and so many threads are started and then abandoned. So cheers to you good-guy OP!

Something else. Consider changing your custom recovery from d2can to d2att. The number of ROMs out there for d2att is way higher that d2can ROMs.
Good luck!

Headphone socket issue
There is no sound coming out from the headphones when i insert them....and when i unplug the sound on the speaker doesnt work too..It's NOT A HARDWARE ISSUE cuz i checked that it worked perfectly on the stock rom...but when i flash Roms it doesn't work at all...
PLS HELP!!!!
Fairly new to alot of this...please forgive me. I have scoured forums and cannot find an answer to my problem. I got a new S2 about a month ago and I rooted it no prob. When I tried to install CYM 10 (stable and nightlys) It installed but the wifi and radio are shut off. Found a rooted stock and was using it as it was better than what I had stock on the phone but not being able to do it bothered me. After many posts regarding some of these issues with other phones, I have: Updated my prl and anything else I could update successfully, tried again and same problem. I tried turning on, up, down, and everything else I could do with the settings having no wifi or data and went back to the rooted stock. I flashed a radio update sucessfully and then tried messing with Kernals. Dragonics ROM comes with a new kernal flash among many other things and I tried that, installed sucessfully but still not wifi or radio....I even tried flashing older roms and kernals and still nothing.
As of right now I am back to the rooted stock running stupid themes to make me feel like I did something. I cannot find a direct answer to this regarding my model and that I have not tried. This has become an obsession...I HAVE to make this work. Please Help me.
Again, fairly new here and to forums in general and sorry if I did any of this wrong...
Hey everyone. So ill give you a quick background here.
I got the new sIII so I took my old sII and rooted it and started messing around with roms ext to get to know the basics, I still dont know them but at least I didnt brick my new phone. Got used to odin, CWM and TWRP(not so much still getting ot know this one)
So I now have the sIV (sgh-I337M) and I was upset when I bought the galaxy gear watch and couldnt connect it to my phone. (OBV because it isnt a note3 and its not running 4.3 JB)
So I go on a mission. Rooting and Rom'ing my SIV to 4.3. some roms worked, some didnt. Found one that worked flawlessly! installed it started setting it up the way I wanted it and everything was going well, all the while connected to wifi. The problem comes when I tryed to text someone. I have no radio.... Crap.... So I realized maybe its because I didnt install a build prop?? What is a build prop? How does one install a pre-made build prop? is this even my problem?
Here is the thread I used to get my rom (The only rom that isnt constantly having "com.xxx.xxx" unexpectedly stopping or failing) and it runs flawlessly on my phone except for the radio problems... I downloaded and installed 2013.09.07 ROM
I assumed the attatched file ge4.3-build.prop-i337m.zip is a build prop that I need to add into the phone some how and this may fix my problem.
I know this type of problem has been addressed a million times. Unfortunatly Im at work right now and I can take the time to search thousands of threads for this answer. altho I assure you I never registered untill today because everything Ive needed to know untill now has been answered with a bit of searching thru this exilent foums culture.
ANY HELP GRATELY APPRECIEATED
quick recap!
SGH-I337M
Rooted and flashed ROM on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370205
Radio now not working. EVERYTHING ELSE RUNNING FLAWLESSLY
and I LOVE THIS FORUM.
Now once I fix this problem. Im going to tackle installing windows mobile OS on my s2 just for s's and g's
First off, I have been feeling like a complete NOOB the past 2 days so I wanted to make a post asking for help. Thank you in advanced!
I am using a T-mobile Samsung S3 T999, and for over a year I was running one variant of the Infamous S3 ROM. Unfortunately, a couple days ago, I noticed that my cell service would only be turned on for a split second during start up. I attributed this to software issues, especially since I haven't flashed a ROM in over 1 year.
I decided to try to flash the available Infamous Lite ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172437)
This surprisingly worked fine, but I noticed that my camera wasn't working. Since then, I have flashed a plethora of other ROMS, but none have the camera working. Additionally, only the infamous ROM allowed me to get LTE service, all other ROMs did not. I tried inputting the APN on some ROMs but that didn't work.
Stupidly, I flashed UVUEMJ4 onto my phone, and now I have lost service completely, and the camera doesn't work still.
Am I not flashing my phone right? It seems like I have information being carried over from each flash or something. I reflashed to the semi-stable infamous lite for S3, and now I don't have service, and it says for me to insert SIM card. Is it actually possible to burn out my SIM card (its brand new, I picked up a new one when I initially lost service). Can I undo the UVUEMJ4 flash? Is there a more current modem thingy I should be using?
All in all, I am pretty lost, and don't have a phone with service nor camera (I love instagram hehe). Can anyone please help!?
PS I was worried that I shouldn't completely wipe my phone (ie TWRP) since I have a mac and I wasn't sure if its completely compatible to save my phone. I also destroyed my external SD card in this process (waiting on a new one).

Thread closed. Thank you!
My girlfriend's AT&T S4 loses connection, but still shows it connected. So you never know you don't have a connection until you reboot the phone and find that you have missed 2 phone calls, 3 emails, and 15 texts. This happened with the stock Rom. I've tried a couple of different roms, but still the same outcome. I'm thinking I should have to switch to a different modem, but I'm not sure which one to use. Am I wrong and is there another solution? I'm looking for something that will work so I don't have to mess with it again. If anyone has experienced this connection loss and found a solution, please let me know what to do to fix this phone.
definitively you need to update the modem.
2 ways to achieve the update: either by a new rom firmware (http://live.samsung-updates.com/?device=GT-I9505), either by just update gsm modem/wifi fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50965837&postcount=2627)
But I strongly suggest before, to look at what your device model is. Mine is S4 LTE international = GT-i9505.
Don't know yours.
Hope that helps.
Ahh... a response. Thank you
So if I change the Rom, that will change the modem too? I thought the modem stayed with the phone and you had to change that separately. This can get so confusing at times. But this is good news never the less. The model number of the phone is GT-i9505G running a custom Rom ( Super-Nexus ) 4.4.4, baseband version 1337UCUFNB1, Kernel version 3.4.0-1125940 [email protected] #1
I hope this information helps you understand what I have so you can find a solution. Thank you for all your help
You're right. changing the rom doesn't update your modem unless you flash a stock firmware via odin. But read carefully as samsung at&t version is specific (meaning specific firmware).
You will find bunch of files by looking at "modem galaxy s4 i337" on xda thread. Depend on what you will find, either only modem/wifi fix either the full stock firmware, you need to update via Odin.
also a good start is to take a look at xda thread > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616221
And it seems that AT&T already realease some new stock firmware > http://www.att.com/esupport/softwareUpdateArticle.jsp?sid=KB419415&cv=820&partner=LinkShare&siteId=TnL5HPStwNw-V7YmgDyzwWW7TSi7CwkqtA
I tried a Note 4 Rom first
I have a Note 3, I've had a Note 2 (I loved the macro setting and wished they'd kept it for the Note 3), so I thought I would try the Note 4 Rom on my girlfriend's problematic S4. It got stuck in a boot loop. I ended up using the link you gave me for the stock (but upgraded) AT&T Rom. I see it brought the phone from NB1 to NJ4 firmware. I'm hoping this improvement will solve the problem of a connection loss bring that is a factory firmware upgrade. She can also get OTA updates again. Thank you for your help. Now it's time to find a different Rom for my Nvidia Tegra Note 7. This thing is terribly slow after the upgrade to Lollipop!
Note 4 has a complete different hardware from S4. That's why you had boot loop.
