Phone model number changed after flashing rom - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ,
I have a flashed a rom that I think did not work for my model ( Now my phone says model number is SM-G925K) and I have no more signal. I believe the model number is the issue, but I'm not sure...
It was supposed to be a SM-G920W8.
Any idea how I can reverse it back?
This is the rom that I tried to install : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/development/rom-aterminatorg920f3zpa1m-6-0-11-0b-t3295183
This is the rom that I was on :

Please help!

flashed stock rom, re-rooted the phone and Flashed TWRP and the same old rom I had .. everything is fine now

Displaying different phone model is just a build.prop thing, no reason to panic.
The reason why the ROM you tried to flash doesn't work or give signal is obvious. The rom is posted in the 920F/I thread and therefore shouldnt really work for your device (920w8?), unless stated so (Xtrelite rom says it does). That beta rom has only 92xF bootloader/modem, which obviously doesnt work for you.

Update the Modem/baseband Firmware*

I successfully installed a CM13 ROM for a different variant than my phone. Installed ROM jfltexx variant intended for a Gt19505 model S4 on an i337z S4. It worked and now the device model in phones settings shows listed as GT19505.
ROM works fine, phone dialer functions but I read that I should update the radio firmware. I have had a call or two drop off with no ringing sound but call is apparently going through but I can not hear person on receiving end.
So what baseband modem firmware do I update to? The true hardware i337z or the GT19505 that the phone is working as? I went from Kit Kat 4.4.2 to Marshmallow 6.0..
Baseband Version after installing CM13 jfltexx remains the original i337ztuuboa3. Everything else has changed to reflect CM13 ROM. Build, Kernal etc.
I'm baffled so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm suffering the very some issue and few others.
Just noticed that my present baseband is I9505XXUGNF1.
I've downloaded the I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505ITVHOJ1_ITV nd extracted both modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin and flashed using Heimdall on OSX via cli.
But the phone is still reporting the old BB number.
You need to flash i337z model's RIL files & Modem. Don't know where you will get that but that's what you need to flash for sure..

Thanks. I'll search around. Problem with calls is few
Few. I say 5 % of time usually when I'm going from one area to another so I'm not certain I want to mess up phone. Couple of questions, I am using latest modem for phone as far as I know, bought it in Oct 15,and Cricket has no new update beyond 4.4.4. Are you positive it will not mesd
To flash should I use existing TWRP recovery, Odin. for those file types? I'm guessing Odin.
Once again thanks for your help

Can someone help?!?

I rooted my note 5 (sm-n920w8) and installed sick as hell rom. Apparently, I installed the t-mobile version of the rom (sm-n920t), as this is what the model number of my phone now says.. I am now trying to unroot my phone, but odin fails to flash the stock firmware for model sm-n920w8. I dont want to just flash the t-mobile firmware, as I am worried it will make the phone useless in my area. Any solutions to this problem?

Problem after HEROLTE TWRP and THE GALAXY PROJECT ROM

I am facing a problem. I was experimenting with THE GALAXY PROJECT rom. I turned on developer options and removed oem unlock.I installed twrp for hero lte and did format partition instead of wipe and installed the galaxy project rom. It worked fine but then I revereted to my stock firmware with ODIN. I noticed that I am not able to call any one. I thought i had installed England Firmware on Indian firmware as I faced that problem, so I downloaded the indian firmware again but again it was working on england firmware. I can say this because it was using upday instead of samsung briefing. I thought its a wrong rom again and to atleast make calls installed herolte rom. Same problem. Call ends immediately. My sim works fine in another phone. Any other sim stops calling in my phone.
Can any one suggest a solution of what might have happened.
I just booted into recovery and it mentions there herolte recovery.
Any solution.
Post Note - Rom were fine. Only calling and sending sms is not working. I can receive a text and can use internet over LTE. System cannot read sim phone number in hardware diagnostic. I cannot open aditional setting in phone as it says that error reading sim card.

Reinstall original England rom using Odin. And then install twrp and again install TGP or any other OREO rom you like.
Don't forget to format data after installing tgp for the first time.
Also boot up and reboot once after clean flashing with Odin.
Then flash twrp.
P.S try flashing csc selection by tkkg it may help.
Also which rom are you using nougat or oreo?
I have used Oreo as well as nougat. Problem persists.
Only my current operator aim are not working and rest of the sim are working fine. Service center haa asked me to get motherboard changed.
I was installing indian rom. Now even samsung knox related apps are not working.
So basically you want me to install tgp again and twrp after that and again went back to stock after that.
Do you have any idea why this problem could have been causes. Can rooting mess with physical hardware of phone?

Okay then phone and SMS probably won't work, cause I guess the Indian version is still a nougat but the England one in oreo both your modem and firmware would have been updated and it's not possible to go back, so I suggest you stay with TGP for a while until official oreo arrives in India.
Or else don't use phone or messaging ?

Galaxy s7 stuck at certain build

I flashed in my galaxy s7 G930F
Alexndr.G930FXXUS3ERI1
Then tried to install another build of this rom
My sim card won't work like it's not even inserted
G930FXXU2ERGE that's the other build i tried to install
And tried an s8 rom can't remember its name and same issue
Even when i tried to flash the stock AUT & UK builds with odin and it fails and gives my system rev. check fail device:1, binary:0
Or system rev. check fail device:1, binary:2
Unless it's the build as the one i mentioned G930FXXUS3ERI1
My phone is exynos and suppose to flash any rom with problems before
Can anyone plz tell me what's is going on
G930FXXUS3ERI1 is higher version of G930FXXS3ERHD and samsung is locked the bootloader in G930FXXS3ERHD Version. So you cant downgrade from G930FXXUS3ERI1 and G930FXXS3ERHD to G930FXXU2ERGE. This problem is happen with me and my phone is under warranty (Knox 0x000) and service center will change the motherboard. you have no option to downgrade. Phone will accept only G930FXXUS3ERI1 version, so wait for next official update version of your country. When a similar or higher version come in your country you can able to flash.
I post on xda and i found one solution for root user. See here
Sorry for bad English.
My phone originally from Switzerland so it's AUT firmwares
And i always tried many custom roms with other countries and it worked just fine
I was on G930FXXU2ERGE
After trying this build G930FXXUS3ERI1 it got stuck on it
So u telling me that build is stuck on the motherboard
And i can't downgrade to nougat roms or other oreo builds but the one I'm on?! ?

Once you flash a ROM with a "3" bootloader, you can no longer revert to one with a "2" (or lower). Since you flashed 3ERI1, you can't revert to 2ERGE. Since the "3" bootloader was just released, there really isn't much to roll back to (there is currently a choice between 3ERI1 and 3ERH*).
Having said that, the Alexndr ROM is quite nice and virtually stock (I use it). And with the 3ERI1 build, Samsung appears to have overcome the very annoying random reboot problem that has plagued its recent ROMs.
Yes i been using it too
And that's my current rom nw also same build as yours
But idk why the complication with the bootloader thing with the firmwares
They should have left it like it was
With no restrictions

S7 g930f help neeeded cant detect sim card after flashing custom rom

hi, i got problem...i had stock oreo oficiall without any mods and i decied to flash some custom rom like s9 port teamexyking, now i cant detect any sim card on any custom rom....some help??? i flashed modem and bl and still nothing... looking for solutions, mb some1 can help..ty
I had the same issue and I think it was the same ROM, but it only happened after a day.
Re-flashing the ROM via a dirty flash didn't make a difference.
In the end I just changed ROM because I didn't want to spend too much time on it which worked, so it hasn't done any permanent damage.

Have u checked your imei number or baseband version ???
If baseband version is unknown or imei is null so u can't get netwrok
Or u have damaged your efc partition???
If u have none of this above problem
