[Q] Help with an unknown baseband problem - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had a JI6 Vibrant and needed to network unlock it, I did the nv_data.bin modification and put my own network unlock code.
I went back from JI6 to stock JFD and was running the phone on AT&T network. I Have been using Macnut since version 5 and have been using v12 since the day it came out. Yesterday I upgraded to V13 and all was great, I went in to market and downloaded all of my apps, set up my contacts ..... I then enabled the 850 band and rebooted the phone and that is when I lost network connectivity.
with Macnut V13 I have been unable to get on the network, I go into about phone and it is unable to determine the baseband. I try flashing one of the modem files with odin and it does not work.
Used clockwork to revert back to R12 (clean install and also tried restore backup) and no dice.
I then flashed stock JFD using odin and I had network connectivity again, so I tried Macnut V12 again but once I did that baseband not identified and no network connectivity.
I reflash JFD using odin and my phone worked again, so I tried the JK2 odin rom from Eugene but that did not work, no network connectivity and cannot identify baseband
I reflashed the new JK6 release and again same issue, no network connectivity.
I am currently running stock JFD, can anybody help please? after about a month on Froyo JFD is slow as ....
I searched and most of the unknown baseband threads do not have solutions, and the ones that suggested removing the sim card/sd card/ usb and rebooting multiple times has not worked for me.
I really hate being stuck at JFD

Thread moved to Q&A.

Anybody?? It seems a few people have the problem but nobody has a solution

I have a similar problem. I deleted my nv_data.bin stuff on accident and one thing led to another. Now I can't connect to any service at all and my baseband says unknown. I've been trying to flash it with all different kinds of roms and finally got my baseband to say something but I still can't connect to anything.

No luck Still got Unknown Of Everything
Hi if somebody can help i have a similar problem got UNK baseband, phone, Network, service, try the nv_data.bin fix, no luck, try odin back to stock, no luck, the phone works on wifi perfectly and every thing else works exep cell functions, on mobile says "no simcard found" any help would be greatly appreciated..

I went back from Cm7 to JFD stock rom and flash Simply Honey now my mobile can't recorgnize my Sim card. I checked and saw a problem "Baseband version : unknown". *#06# show NULL/NULL.
Anyone know how to fix it, please help me ??
Thanks

I had the same problem with Simply Honey -- simply didn't recognize the sim card. No other rom I installed ever did that.

[Q] No data signal??

I was running Eugene's R13 with stock kernel and JK6 modem and all was working fine for the past couple days. Tonight I turned on my wifi at home to download a program off gameloft and when i turned off WiFi to switch back to data, the data signal never came back. I checked the settings and data was enabled. I tried everything to get it back and nothing works. I restored my nandroid back to Samsung out of the box stock and did a factory reset and no data still. I then installed a bionix rom that worked well in the past, nothing. I installed the new Onyx 4.2 and flashed the new JK6 modem and that didnt work. I reflashed Euegene's R13 and that still no go.
Any ideas??
You sound like you are having the same issue as me, I was runing macnut r12, worked great. I upgraded to r13 and it was runing well until I rebooted the phone, then I had no cell network connectivity. I odined stock JFD and phone worked, I reflashed r12 and no dice, I went back to jfd it worked again. I flasged a cw jk6 and an odin jk6 and several modem fles and no dice. I am currently stuck at jfd. If you go in to about phone does it have unknown baseband? I have that now unless I am runing stock jfd
In the same boat here. Please help!
It's actually worse for me. I can't even make phone calls.
Use Odin to go back to JFD, you will be able to make calls / data. Unfortunatley I am stuck at JFD at the moment because no mater what I flash other than JFD, I have the unknown baseband issue. I tried Odin JK2 and JK6 also clockwork Macnut 12,13,JK6 roms, JK2 roms. I also tried using Odin to flash JK2,JK6,JFD baseband and no luck

[Q] 3g radio problem

I recently flashed to axura 2.2.7.0 with no problems. I then proceeded to flash the ka6 modem. The install went off with out a hitch. After rebooting I have not been able to get a 3g connection, wifi works just fine. I then thought that maybe I had messed up the install so I odin'd back to stock but I am still having the same problem ( i used JFD tar and 512 pit with repartition). My questions are the following:
1) is there a way to check the status of the radio (ie did i fry it)
2) is it possible for this to be a network issue?
3) any non hardware modification solutions?
**Edit** I have also attempted flashing different modems to no avail, any help would be greatly appreciated
**EDIT 2** MODS pleas close thread solution found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920196
there was a fix posted, but the real issue was not the rom, just t-mo data being out right?
I saw the fix moments ago, (original post was ~1AM) thank you. It seems that some how in the process of flashing and odin'ing i some how disconnected from the t-mo ap, as to whether this was an outage I have no idea. I'm just glad to have my phone working again. Thank you for your reply nonetheless.

[Q] No Service After Flashing ICS Passion V4 ROM

So, xda won't let me post this in the actual ROM post, but I was wondering if anybody else was having this issue (or new a work around). After installing the ICS Passion V4 ROM, I've completely lost all service (says emergency calls only in the notification tray).
I tried manually setting a couple things in network settings but nothing worked. I eventually flashed back to Froyo with odin and all is well (so it's not a hardware issue).
Any suggestions?
after flashing passion look in setting - about phone and see what's listed under baseband. It should be T959UVKB5. If it says unknown you need to flash the KB5 modem that is in the OP.
Ahh, duh! Now that you say that I remember reading that exact thing and making a mental note to try that if I run into problems.
Thank you so much! I'll have to give that a try when I get home tonight, I'll update if it works.
Yup, that fixed it. Thank you!
Now i have that problem
i have no service either and i did flash the KB5 modem. not sure if im doing anything else wrong. my baseband says unknown and and its been the same when i had cm7 running.
any help??

[Q] Emergency calls only after flashing a stock rom from a nearly bricked phone

I flashed a stock 2.3.5 rom, using odin after I almost bricked my phone. Upon starting up my phone I immediately got the error that I could only make emergency calls. The strangest part of this is that my service state flicks on and off between in service and out of service, and my roaming switches randomly between not roaming and roaming. My provider is Telus and I have a sim card, and I'm pretty sure it works, I bought my phone from Telus.
My phone is able to connect to Kies.
Upon dialing *#1234# I get
PDA : S5830XWKS9
PHONE : S5830XWKS2
CSC : S5830XEOKP2
This CSC is for Poland, the rom I flashed was set to Poland for some reason, is this an issue? I live in Alberta, Canada, so my CSC code should not be set to this. I found a Telus CSC on this page in post #10, so I might try flashing that rom to see if that resolves my problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390798
I also noticed that the PDA and PHONE last few letters are different(WKS9/WKS2) is this also an issue?
Additional information
Baseband version : S5830XWKS2
Kernel Version : 2.6.35.7-perf-CL654989
[email protected] #1
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XWKS9
You can see more examples of different numbers when you look at this info, the Baseband version is WKS2 and the Build number is WKS9.
Should I phone up Telus to make sure I'm not being charged roaming fees while I am most certainly in their coverage area? And would it be possible that my imei number is blocked for some reason(The one on the battery is the same as the one in about phone and also the same as the one when you dial *#06#).
Although my phone does work sporadically I really want it to work 24/7 for a number of reasons including safety.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated, feel free to ask me for additional info, I'll do my best to get it.
Edit: My brother has a relatively new Galaxy Ace, also from Telus, exact same settings and everything I want, would it be possible to get CWM recovery on his phone and copy all the settings to my phone and restore my phone to his settings, bypassing having to screw around with all the settings on my phone?
The person in Post #8 on the site below said doing this worked for him(Although I don't understand why he replaced CWM with Ultrajack)
http://androidforums.com/huawei-m835/405469-apn-question.html
Ive also heard that you can remove your sim card and your sd card from your phone, connect it to odin and flash something to restore your phone to defaults, would there be any way to do this?
Edit: I solved this problem by finally finding the stock firmware for Telus here..
http://hotfile.com/dl/137128537/a629597/GT-S5830D_TLS_S5830DTLKI4_S5830DTLSKI4_S5830DTLKI4.rar.html
worked great, just flashed it in Odin, started up my phone and all the baseband, CSC, everything was the correct format(TLKI4), I think this works for Koodo as well, so if anyone has been facing some issues with their stock rom, just flash this one and any errors should be cleared up.
Please try flashing a full package Froyo
Herpderp Defy.
Did you flash a new baseband? On a possibly related note... I have the DTLKI baseband, and it comes on Koodo phones. Koodo is a Canadian subsidiary of Telus. I had flashed a new baseband on and had the same problem as you, it wouldn't pick up my network provider and luckily someone on here had uploaded the baseband I needed to pick up Koodo again. Maybe you're having the same issue? Try going to wireless & networks/mobile networks/ and then network operators. Check if you can find Telus. (if this is irrelevant, I apologize)
Yeah my brother phone has DTLKI baseband as well, do you have any links to that specific baseband? I can find Telus(and also Rogers for some reason), but using the right baseband couldn't hurt.
If I did flash a full package Froyo, could I connect it to Samsung Kies to update it to 2.3.4/2.3.5? I've also read on a lot of sites that Koodo/Telus Galaxy Aces have difficulties if the baseband isnt TLKI4 so if you know of any full package froyos that use that baseband version I would greatly appreciate it.
Well, you'll want to flash the modem with odin. and the modem only. I don't know if it's compatible with froyo though as I've only used GB myself. I'll email it to you. I received it from Kevinlekiller a long time ago. The filesharing site is now removed now though! It's worth a try if you don't have a limb to go on though I guess.
Gonna try it
How did you find that firmware? I looked all over the place for it and finally found your thread!
Gonna try it tonight, my CM makes my gps crash. No fix whatsoever. Hopefully this will restore it.
Worked!
Yay!
by the by, did you happen to lose GPS functionnality while flashing custom roms?
Forget that last question
Flashing back the stock firmware corrected all issues I had and now, all other firmwares are working A-OK.
Currently on ice cream sunday.

[Q] Cell radio wont turn on

Hi all
I dont know why / how but my cell radio suddenly went off and wont turn back on.
I am rooted BL unlocked on Nottachtrix 1.3.1 ROM.
I am also SIM unlocked and I live in India. I have the AT&T atrix.
What might have caused the issue
I was messing around in *#*#4636#*#* with the radio band.
I had this signal boosting app which I use but cant find it on the market to link it now. I 've been using this app for a while so dont know why it would mess up now.
I am not sure if these are what caused the issue but just letting u know
Things I have done so far
Battery pull
Different sim card / different network
I tried flashing the ROM again with full wipe but still no luck
Flashed CM7 Ba2tf and the problem persists.. can I rule out that it is software related?
Everything else is working fine.
I am out of ideas and help is very much appreciated.
Thanks
SOLUTION
The Easiest Fix for this issue is Flashing the right baseband in CWM recovery.
The radio is flashed separately from the Android os. Try a new baseband. However be sure to get the right one for your phone.

Issue solved. I 'll detail what I did so it can help others.
Yes. Selecting the USA Band is what caused the issue.
I dint know that basebands could be flashed on Atrix ROMs. I wish I 've known it sooner. Would 've saved me a lot of trouble. Anyway I went with the SBF method.
I had the 4.5.91 earlier but I went with 4.5.141 to be safe.
Everything went smooth but at the end RSD lite said "Please manually reboot this phone" and the phone went into a boot loop at the M logo. I looked around and after a while found that a Wipe fixes it in stock recovery.
1. Disconnected the phone
2. Pulled out the battery.
3. Rebooted and went into stock recovery.
4. Wiped data and rebooted.
5. Got to home screen fine. Rebooted once again to make sure everything is fine.
Then inserted sim card and I had a signal. Everthing is working great.
Bro i have solution.... Btw... You must have flashed the wrong rom.... Kindly download nd install other one ..or use custom cm14 ROM or miui for best experience..
