Problem with Galaxy S4-I9505 not accessing Network - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,
First of all my galaxy S4 international version suddenly stopped reading or accessing the cellular network after updating from 4.2.2 to 4.3.
Note that: I bought my mobile from Kuwait and i am currently relocated to Egypt.
I heard about the Regional locking samsung did but i don't know if this is the issue or what?
So if you could help me to revert/downgrade back to 4.2.2 to get rid of this new feature samsung added to the new 4.3?!
btw I am currently on cyanogenmod 10.2
please any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Mohamed

The ragional locking should be mentioned on device's original box.
Are you unable to make/receive calls, or getting 'network unavailable' message?
If true- try to flash stock rom available for your country in sammobile etc.
If not- try to reconfigure your APN settings depending on your carrier,
Or try to find appropriate flashable modem in I9505 thread

yes i'm in the same boat, except mine is working. i have root and what not but i just want a clean rom like phantom blazer. but when i installed it everything worked freaking awesome....except no cell signal since its geared for sprint only, i wonder how hard it would be to adjust it to US Cellular.

Here is the rar file from my dropbox for CWM backup of my phone. (The file is being Uploaded)
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ucd5lxmup5ibnxk/QxnDuVDtE8
There is one more way
Just odin the Verizon system rooted unlocked image. tar (1500 mb) Its rooted system image of Verizon. It works fine for me. All Verizon custom ROMs work too. Stock ROMs fail at the modem stage. Once the boot loaders are unlocked they will load too.The baseband remains of US Cellular.
MD5 file Question
There is a Kies updated for USCC phone. Kies downloaded a file and placed it in the Binary folder.
Named "VZW_HOME_R530UVXALG4_R530UUSCALG4_961795_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.MD5" can this be flashed using ODIN to create a stock phone. Sorry new to flashing

Can SCH-R530 be used on GSM network?
Hello,
Can the US Cellular SCH-R530 be used on GSM network? I read about the Verizon SCH-I535 being turned into a world phone. The AT&T rom can be flashed to the SCH-I535 and everything works. I think the only thing that cannot be flashed is the ATT modem into the verizon S3.
So can something like this be done to the SCH-R530 phone?
If anyone is willing to try or has any input, please let us know.! Thank you..

Are you sure the Verizon ROM will work smoothly in Samsung S3 R530 US Cellular and not brick the phone?
Is the Verizon S3 I535 and USCC S3 R530 have the same hardware?
thanks,

If you haven't found help yet, this should fix you ups. All you have to do is install CWM via Odin and then flash one of these!

have you tried using other sims? maybe its not compatible with your specific sim.
maybe you just dont have any coverage, when i get the "not registred on network" message, it usualy means i'm underground, or in a place with low cell coverage, like in the woods or mountains.

The phone is factory unlocked so no issues related to not compatible and I tried with another sim too. Still the same problem. The problem only came when I flashed the 4.3 Indian stock rom. But that rom doesn't have any problem coz I've used on other note 2 too. Something related with the phone.
Hi there if you go into settings and then about device and then status you will be able to see if you have a service state if you don't have any but the network operator appears as well as signal stats. You most likely have a black listed iemi or something happened to the iemi when flashing the rom or more simple is the sim slot is broken. Hopefully you will be able to fix it sorry I can't give you that much help on this subject.

[Completed] [Q] Flashed CM12 To Galaxy S5(SM-G900F) and now I have no cell service

Hey everyone. I recently flashed the new CM12 rom to my Galaxy S5 and mostly everything works fine. The only problem I have is I can't make calls and/or send text messages. My carrier is Sprint and my model was formerly SM-G900P however after I flashed CM12 it now says SM-G900F. Whenever I click on mobile plan it says "Sprint has no known provisioning website". I can't even access the APN settings. Can someone please help me fix this, I love CM12 and would rather not go back to stock. I have no problems with my IMEI/MEID number, and under Status in settings my phone number still comes up however for Network it says "Searching for Service" and for Mobile Network Type it says "Unknown", it also says "Disconnected" for Mobile Network state. Is their any way to fix this?
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. From what I can see you have the Sprint S5 (CDMA) but it looks as though you've flashed a ROM for the GSM model. GSM and CDMA are totally different mobile technologies so using a GSM ROM on a CDMA device will result in exactly what's happened to you. Where did you find the ROM that you flashed? Can you provide a link please?
Your device forum is here:
Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 5
Make sure you bookmark that page. Make sure you only ever use ROMs/kernels/mods/modems etc from within that specific device forum for your device. There are many different variants of the S5 and you can't mix and match ROMs, this time you probably got lucky but flashing the wrong firmware can very easily brick your device.

[Resolved] Updating Samsung galaxy s5 active Help

Hi I have not really a problem but a question I recently bought a ATT sim card and put money on it so I can update my s5 active because I have cricket but it went from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 and it keeps getting updates basically it is downloading and installing 3 years worth of security patches and marshmallow and I’ve got it from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 pb1 and it is currently been like an hour still downloading a software update and I’m wondering if I can download them at once?

Actually you can do it by flashing the whole system again with the newest version through odin but this will cause a factory reset
