No mobile data / Baseband Unknown [SOLVED] - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My mobile data no longer works. I've done a lot of research, tried every fix, to no avail. My WiFi works, it's only my mobile data.
Things I've tried:
Following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061
Completely reverting to stock
Flashing a stock, rooted 44S + radio files
Flashing ColorOS, and then flashing CM11S using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/fix-people-corrupt-efs-mobile-data-t2836389
Sticking the SIM card in my Galaxy S3 to see if it works (spoiler: it does)
Restoring previous nandroid while data was working fine
Under ColorOS, I have a notification that says "The NV partition is invalid!". Just thought I'd mention that.
Stupid me didn't backup my EFS. No APNs, unknown IMEI, unknown baseband, etc.
I'm at a loss guys. I'd greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Niko

Yup. Sadly didn't work.

You might be outta luck then, the methods you've mentioned above are the only ones that I know of that work. Let this be a lesson to anyone reading, backup your EFS. DO IT.

You think it would be worth trying to get a new sim card from my carrier?

It isn't the SIM that's the problem, your EFS partition is corrupt.
Transmitted via Bacon

If my EFS partition was corrupt, why does my Wifi work?

That's normal.

I FIXED IT! This is exactly what I did.
* Flash ColorOS from this post: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/rom-official-4-3-coloros-v-2-0-0_beta.79203/
* Download and install OTA updates for ColorOS
* Flash back TWRP
* Flash 44S (Pre-Rooted)
* Boot up phone without SIM in (at this point I checked the settings and to my joy saw that baseband wasn't unknown
* Power down, insert SIM in, reboot

Hi, have the same issue. Did you flash the ColorOS thru a recovery or thru SDK Tools? and what recovery did you use to flash if you flashed with a recovery?

I flashed ColorOS in fastboot mode, so through SDK tools. I manually flashed every .img. In other words, I just followed the guide in the link I gave.

Sorry, bit of a noob here!
What is the EFS and how would I go about backing it up? I don't see any option for that in TWRP?

44S is short for XNPH44S, which is the latest build of CM11S (the stock firmware) for this phone.

You can always try the second method for the "BACK TO STOCK" guide from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701
Even better you can use the instructions from the second post of that thread to wipe clean all your partitions prior to flashing them via fastboot.

his first priority is fixing it. his second priority is possibly finding out why he borked it and not making the same mistake again. i've borked stuff learning and fixed it with toolkits.
not everyone wants to learn ADB or fastboot commands, or install the SDK, and NOT EVERYONE HAS TO. not everyone is a would-be developer

Restoring to stock, "data too large" error

I was restoring to stock and got this error at the update -w step. I am returning to the 38R release and I am stuck at the boot screen with no luck.
Any advice?
How did you install adb/fastboot? That error usually comes due to an outdated version.

[Q] OnePlus one Operating System HELP

hey guys , I bought an OPO in china when I was on vacation but now it has the color os which is horrbile and has no google services. how can I switch to the Cyanogen?
Take a look at the general section or faq. There must be guides how to change to cm11
Send by Hyperdrive on one+One
I did check but the problem is that i have the 64gb and i saw people saying that after they changed to the cyanogenmod it showed that they had 16 GB only
Go to my guide thread here:

Follow sections 1, 2, 3, and 8. You shouldn't have any problems with your userdata (64gb internal storage) at all, but if you do it's as simple as flashing the correct userdata file.

Hey thankyou very much but I have a problem
I started following the instructions until i got to UNCHECK UPDATE RECOVERY WITH SYSTEM UPDATES , well i have the color os and it doesn't have that option in developer options??!?
Could I just download the newest TWRP recovery instead of the 2.8.1.0 and then it won't have anything to update to ?
Or do I have to somehow find this "Update recovery with system updates" button?
Thankyou very much guys
I skipped the custom recovery part Because of the option that I couldn't find(Advice from the OP forums) and went straight to 8 And it still worked!!!!!!!!

The point of installing the custom recovery was so you could make a backup of your stock system in case you need it in future. So whoever told you to skip that part doesn't know what they're talking about.

Just in case something goes wrong in future and you need to restore your phone to the way it was when you opened the box. It doesn't matter now though, it's too late.

CM12 Bootloop Issue

I've done some searching around, and can't really find anyone else that is having quite the same problem as me. So, I'm running CM12 Nightlies on my One. After I upgraded from stock, everything worked flawlessly. But now, whenever I try to update it to a new nightly, it gets stuck in a bootloop. The only way I've found to get it to update without the bootloop is to wipe the whole system. Which is getting a little annoying having to reinstall my apps and stuff every day. I've found a few work arounds, like making a backup through TWRP, updating, then restoring just the data of the backup. But I'd like to be able to just update it without having to go through all that trouble. I don't know if I'm the only one having this specific issue, or if it's a CM12 issue. Any help would be great.
Have you tried using CyanDelta?

Transmitted via Bacon
Its also possible there are firmware differences. I have read about some new firmware pushes in the nighties. I am currently on Bliss and we have to flash updated files to keep up with the cm commits. It could be that because your dirty flashing its causing an issue. Perhaps do a backup of data, install latest. And restore data is your best bet.

It probably is due to not having updated firmware. Which nightly? Wipe everything and flash the most recent nightly or go to blisspop thread and find the updated firmware zip it's around 30mb and flash that. It should fix your boot loop issues

I suppose that may have been my problem all along. The main problems I was having were just little bugs (system UI very rarely crashing, and a couple other minor annoyances), but I guess those could have been caused by having the wrong firmware. Maybe I'll give it another go soon. Now that I'm all settled in to CM11S, haha. Thanks again!
Has anyone else had any issues with the automated download and install feature in the CM12 settings? Mine will download the night lies and even automatically boot into TWRP but it doesn't flash?

I think I tried that before. Even if I downloaded that and flashed it from recovery (without wiping anything first), it would do the same thing.
I know it's best to not dirty flash, but my main reason I want to figure this out is because I use Google Music All Access. And every time I wipe my system I have to re-download all my music.

Dirty flashing should be fine if you're just updating the same ROM. Do you check the md5 when you download the file? They might be getting corrupt during the download.

Yeah that was what I meant. Unfortunately I think you're going to need to wipe though because just installing the update doesn't fix the problem (corrupt data partition). I think you'll need to fully wipe your phone and start fresh. First you should copy any important photos, music, etc from your phone to your PC. Just connect your phone to your PC while you're in TWRP and you should be able to copy your media from the phone using Windows. Once you've done that, go to my guide thread and follow the instructions in section 8 to flash the stock images.
