[Q] Unknown Baseband, will you help a technician in need? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

Hello everyone!
I got this G920V today,
Basically I need to achieve fully functional Hebrew language in that device.
I searched for custom roms and nothing with Hebrew on it..
So I took my time to explore it.. just a couple experiments(TECHNICIAN RAGE)
I installed Flashfire and tried to install G920F system partition from stock rom G920FXXU1AOD4 ILO.
The phone is on and fully Hebrew working as well but no baseband & no IMEI
Tried Flashing modem and EFS backup from Flashfire but without success..
If anyone's asking, Morelocale is not a solution..
I will try Messing with it with my boxes, but I would prefer a safer solution
If anyone can help I would gladly return the favor !
Thanks in advance!
P.S dont worry about bricking anything if you got some experimental ideas, everything is working if I flash original stock rom

I am experiencing the same thing when I flash G9200 into G920A. This is the first time I've ever seen just flashing "system" messing up with baseband. Anything you have found out?

need the stock firmware for my sgh-t959v

i was really really stupid and decided to try and install darky's resurrected rom on my new sgh-t959v. After doing it and it not going past the 'installing csc' prompt i decided to try and mount a different pit. i got a working setup out of luck, but now my sim card doesn't work. i got a new sim card and still no signal. i only managed to write down the baseband version before messing it up like this. now that i've read that mixing a pit file from one region with a csc file from another is dangerous. i just need the stock pit csc and phone files. it's been driving me nuts because i just got this phone and all of a sudden can't use it. i've learned my lesson but i really need to fix it. i don't think darky's will work on mine since it's so new.
btw i found the source for my phone,(can't put link here because i don't have over 8 posts) my model and version are listed there. the only problem is i'm a noob at developing(getting into it) and can't compile all this stuff. is there a guide to compiling it? i was hoping to compile the source from that site and try to port it. how would i go about making the source into the pit csc and modem files?
sorry for such a ****ty problems guys. hope someone can help thanks in advance.
super buuuuump!!!
bump, i want my foooone herpaderp!
what's the difference between pit files that are 512, 803, 513? what's this number represent?
so i just tried to flash some other 'custom' rom that was perfect for my phone. i tried it with a different pit file that i thought would work. but now the device doesn't respond to anything! i turned it off and it won't turn on at all now not even to download mode. i'm freaking out what do i do!!!
welp i didn't want to wait. just to update everyone i took it to a local tech who flashed it to stock but couldn't fix the fudged bootloader. i messed it up when it failed a rom flash and i pulled it out in the middle of flashing. so i'm sending it back and getting another one by tuesday
yes, i need it too.
Same problem, anyway know where download this firmware???
No Custom ROM
A word to the wise: The Samsung sgh-t959v for t-mobile does not allow you to put a custom ROM. If anyone knows how to, please advice. I have a new sgh-t959v and don't want to make the same mistake of bricking it where "adb reboot download" command didn't even work because the phone died.

[Q] GT8020 will not root! Can anyone help me?

ok needless to say if you're reading this you may of read my other posts and figured I'm not having a lot of luck with my tab, after getting stuck in bootloop land I've managed to reflash stock firmware, but no matter how much I try, different roots and recoveries I just cannot get root access to my tab, and all I want to do is flash a custom rom, which is frustrating as the OPS is in multiple files for flashing through ODIN, whereas Custom ROMs aren't!
so can anyone help me this time please?

I have also tried flashing with TWRP still no avail, I am getting Status 7 errors, and Signature Verification errors when trying to flash the HumberOS
My exynosabuse exploit program shows as rooted, and some programs ask for Superuser permissions, so I have no idea!!!

GT-N8000 downgrade and no update.

I've been using Gnabo v_7 version for quite a long time, and a very simple and beautiful day when I woke up my Samsung GT-N8000 was stuck on bootscreen. I wasn't able to do much so I got this "Brazil stock rom" that I found in a website, and it flashed all right, except for the detail that there is something at the screen that I haven't got a bloody clue how to remove. hahaha
And still, whenever I try to install another room, I got stuck at bootlogo and so on. I'm kinda lost here, mind a little help?
I traveled around the forum but well, I'm a little dumb so I couldn't find any proper information about, how to solve this. I would like to know if there is a way to remove this thing from the main screen, and post here the image for you guys to see it please.
I tried to post the image here to make it easier understanding, but since I got this login recently I can't =\
Thanks
Install custom recovery (if you haven't already. If you already have it installed, make sure to update to latest version), root device, wipe everything and flash custom ROM.

So far I've tried the rom = N8000XXUDNE4 [still bootloop], then another 4.1 android version of other German rom XXALGA and nothing. Downloaded 3 Brazilian versions, and nothing. [I am from Brazil]. The only one that worked flashing using Odin was one called "KIES_HOME_N8000UBALGA_N8000ZTOALG3_N8000UBLG5.tar". And still, not recognizing my cellphone chip, and with some big watermark at the middle of the screen showing some information about the ROM and the version is 4.0. Even though this one worked fine, I was able to root and when I tried to flash another room, BANG! Bootloop again! =\
I was looking at the forum topics and I read some about ADB or something like that can fix this and "break" this bootloop making the device work normally again with the roms. But i haven't got a clue how to use it. Please help me! =\

You can use ADB to push/pull files to Android. I don't know if you can use it to fix bootloop. With it, you can also reboot to recovery and sideload zip

Well, after 2 days of research and paying attention on things here, I found out that my problem is "/EFS error". Meaning to use ADB to recover or fix it? But I don't know how to use this. I've downloaded 3GB of it but I was lost about using, and uninstalled. Is is there any short or better version and some good tutorial about using to retrieve my EFS so I can install another roms? I'm using original stock rom now, Brazilian android 4.0 and that's the only only the device is working fine but of course missing things as my cellphone card and the yellow message at the top of the screen. Please guide me through ADB.
P.s Is there a way to create /efs or something like so the device work properly? Cause I've deleted when I installed some rom, and I have no backup here. =\
Thanks!

Bricked S6 please help

Hi guys
recently bought a s6 from ebay which was frozen on S6 logo. Basically managed to clear cache and factory reset from recovery but that didn't work, anyway I DL the O2 firmware and odin and put it into download mode I get a fail on odin when trying to install the rom
The phone has knox 1 and also has red writing SW Rev. Check Fail. Device: 3 Binary: 1.
I'm unsure what to do and if theres any chance for me to recover.
Many thanks
Mav
it failed because you flashed an incompatible Firmware.
where did it stopped flashing in odin? In sboot.bin?
If thats the case, you need to download proper firmware/country for your device.
Let me know what country is ur fone made of.
Hi thanks for your reply.
I managed to get it working by installing root and unikernel, it boots into O2 the firmwarw is 5.1.1
Only problem now is imei is 3500000000006
And it wont make calls dont know if imei is corrupt ir they sold me a stolen or lost phone?
I may install tw recovery and custom rom and see if that works.
Any suggestions?
Hi
Ive managed to sort out and get it to work infact typing on it now. Its currently rooted custom rom and twrp. I e managed also to restore original imei number so overall im quite pleased with myslef lol.
Anyway one last problem i have is ive tried all sims but none work i know ita picking up signal as the bar shows top right. Also chexk my settings.
Ive tried automatically and manually going to register networks but it says unable to connect try again later. I know uts not my area as my wifes s6 works perfectly. Sim also def works. The phone also picks up when a new sim has been inserted so i dont think its sim slot.
Any ideas guys
OK new update if anyone can help I'd really appreciate.
Installed new vador rom Imei reverted back and serial number is all zeros
Is this something to do with baseband if so how can I fix read somewhere about ariza patch but that was s3 4 etc.
Thanks
Mav
1. Your EFS is corrupted. The IMEI you see is a generic one, phone will be useless for network provider only wifi will work.
2. The one thing that caused this is by flashing an old bootloader to your phone. Thats why youve encountered Check Fail error on Download mode.
Happened to me also but got it fixed in the end.
OK thanks for the info how do I fix? I do have my wife's s6 but that's not rooted and don't want to root can I restore the efs
Many thanks
Mav

Thanks

I think I know one thread that has a firmware downloader with ultra fast download speed you may try searching it.
I dont know if it will help, but you may be able to successfully flash the firmware but many of those who have problems were unable to boot the phone due to corrupted efs data.
Here's my way of fixing it (if you still have intact efs). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63693480&postcount=28
But if its already wiped, there's no way you can retrieve it unless bringing it to samsung or any repair shop.
Anyways, mine was fixed (IMEI) using Octopus box repair tool. Since I cant do anything to recover my generic imei.

Thanks silly question but how do I know if my efs is ok or corrupted?
at the moment the phone works perfect it is rooted, twrp recovery and vador rom but it just wont connect to networks. I know its not stolen or lost.

As far as i know if your EFS partition is corrupt and you do not have a back up of the EFS partition to restore which you probably dont as you bought this as broken then sim capability is dead, im not sure of any other way to fix this unless you have the intact efs partition
Hi
How can I tell if the efs is corrupt it shows a baseband it now shows the correct ime I
It just won't connect to network it says try again.
I can post a screen print of efs folder on es Explorer if anyone knows what it should look like
Here are screen prints but I think I'm speaking to myself lol
Hi there i spent months on fixing issues like this (i now have a tool that takes care of all this) , best thing you can do is flash to a rom where the original imei came back do a backup of the efs, flash to a orginal rom ( latest rom) make sure its the right one for your device, connect to kies, install the rom again root and restore the efs failing that the imei is blocked use checkmend.com the uk version if your from the uk, message me if you need help

Your rom, recovery and kernel doesnt have to do with corrupted efs.
Only way is to bring it to repair service using box tools to re enter/validate your imei so that you can connect to your network provider. There is no other way around other than retrieving your efs and installing it or thru repair service.
You may now relax yourself at finding ways to connect, I assure it wont help trying to flash and flash and flash stuff to your phone.
---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------
Uhm can you send sms or make calls? It seems you have a valid Imei
Ok ive tried all stock roms including o2 and a uk btu one but no luck they all do the same thing get frozen on Samsung logo then I flash unikernel and it boots.
When checking my efs folder I can see no modem file I'm now wondering could that be the fault? so I downloaded modem and BL for 5.02 and 5.11 both will not flash via odin I get a fail message and on device check fail device: 3 binary: 1 messgage in red?????.
So I'm a little lost, I was wondering if I managed to root my wifes s6 which is virtually new could I back up her efs folder then copy it into mine and just amend the imei to my original would that work? also is there a way of rooting my wifes phone without triggering knox?
Any other suggestions guys I really don't know what bootloader was on it to start with or rom is there any way for me to find this out?, also another weird thing when the o2 uk roms install they install german apps?
Thanks guys
Ive repaired EFS Partitions with scripts downloaded from links at xda.
For example i trashed my EFS partition on my note 3 so it caused hard reboots after android booted up and it couldnt be fixed with anything else than the EFS partition repair scripts.
Edit: friend repaired his Note 4 also.
Thanks but where can I find these scripts as I've looked everywhere and if I did find how do I go about doing it. At the moment when I try to flash modem and bootloader it fails.
