Okay so i just flashed neo kernel.
It booted up fine.
Then after boot, theres no signal, i rebooted, still no signal
checked settings> about phone
and it says BASEBAND VERSION: unknown which probably means i dont have one
How do i make this work?
The kernel version it says 2.3.35.7 and the platypus rev neo thing you know.

I'm on CM7.
KB5 i was using it before i flashed this onto it.
dont know anything about cm7 so not going to give advice, i'll probably make it worse
good luck
Did you do Neo 06?
My suggestions:
Every kernel installation:
1) Backup your current ROM!
2) In CWM:
+ Wipe Cache Partition
+ Install zip from SD Card
+ Advanced: Wipe Dalvik Cache
+ Advanced: Fix Permissions
3) Reboot
4) Wait 10 Minutes, Reboot.
If this doesn't work for your issue, then bite the smaller bullet and do a Factory Wipe/Data Reset (larger bullet being ODIN to stock, but that seems like overkill for this type of thing).
I've run into this baseband issue with prior Platypus and Kernel du Jours, but the lastest Neo 06 really seems to be rock solid.
Good luck!
Do you have an efsrestore.zip you can flash?

Ive had this issue before a while back with cm7. I had gone the route of backing up my efs in case my imei number had been lost during the flashing process. Well, one day it happened, no signal and baseband was listed as unknown. Flash my efsrestore.zip file and had signal again. I could be wrong but you might need to odin, create the efs backup and then flash the .zip created if u have problems in the future. Hope this helps.

i had that issue when flashing a certain cm7 nightly. i pushed the kb5 modem.bin file to /radio/ and set permissions. (using root explorer)
try that first.
You most likely flashed the old Ril version. You need the one with the new Ril.

I tried both.
After doing something different apparently, i got it to work.
But the signals for both signal and wifi would both be white.
so phone worked, but wifi did not.
So i odin'd again
and i'm re-trying.
I don't think this neo kernel is for me...
I've odin'd 5 times today, because of it and me trying to get it to work.
I may try ONE more more time because this is giving me a headache.
Tried for the last time.
Did not work.
Either made my wifi not work. or my signal not work.
try to Flash / reflash a modem (radio). Its worked for me in the past.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110500
Or push (root explorer) a different modem.bin to /radio

I've already asked in the relevant ROM thread but thought I'd try here in case anyone else has had a similar issue.
I'm currently running Westcrip ICS 9.4 and tried to update to latest version but phone freezes a few seconds after booting (have to restart/battery pull)
I've tried wiping data/cache/dalvik/fix permissions but get exactly the same problem.
I've tried flashing stock GB through odin which works ok and then flashing again but get exactly the same problem.
I've tried flashing bezkes aokp but get exactly the same problem.
Thankfully my 9.4 backup restores OK and runs without any freezes.
The only thing I think it might be is something dodgy/corrupt on my internal memory or SD card. Is it safe to wipe these? I dont want to move my backup as I've had MD5 problems when trying to restore in the past.
Does anyone have any other ideas? I've looked around on the forum/google but can't find anyone else reporting the same problem.
This is driving me mad!! Am I missing something?
No ideas?
Ill try again after clearing internal storage. Can someone recommend the best way to do this please?
I should have said that i get the freeze problems with no non rom apps installed...

Well you are using buggy beta ICS base .
As you can flash and use a stock rom then the problem is the rom you are flashing .
Possible corrupt download .

Thanks for the reply. I tried downloading again but still have the same problem with resurrection and bezke so will try loading a stock ics base through odin when i get home tonight. Do you think my 9.4 resurrection base could be the problem? I read that on earlier ics roms that you should flash stock ics first?

No idea really but how can you flash a stock ICS its not released .

I've been using Bezke's AOKP for 5 days now, without any problem, so the problem is definitely not in his ROM.
When you flash it, try the following:
after wiping data, cache and dalvik, go to mounts and storage and hit format system. It could do the trick maybe...

Arghh!!! Tried this and thought it had solved the problem. I've managed to install the new paradoxx rom now and even reinstall my apps and set up email account, but phone eventually freezes again. I've even started getting random freezes in CWM now! What I cant understand is why my phone is still rock solid running my westcrip 9.4 backup??
I think I might have flashed my phone to an early grave!!
That is really strange. Sorry that formatting system didn't help
Okay here is the problemo
i was running D4v10 with siyah Kernel
I had the dreaded unknown baseband, Unknown Imei last night after my phone randomly rebooted. Thought Okay, ill restore it with helcats EFS tool. didnt fix it.
So next i tried to restore the EFS backup with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546. That didnt work either.
The phone has been factory reset
So i flashed KI4 generic from Intractech's stock thread and used CF root to go with it and it worked my Baseband and IMEI are restored, However now whenever i flash any new firmware VIA Recovery (GB roms, CM9 and AOKP etc) my Baseband and IMEI become unknown. so basically my phone still works if i use a stock firmware with CF root, but i cannot flash any new Roms via Recovery. Not even LP7 Generic works...
Has anyone come across any similar problems to this?
Also Flashing the Ki4 stock firmware, Nandroid back it and then updating to CM9 doesnt work, however when i restore the backup it works again :S
tearing out hair
i flash my sgs1 an sgs2 uncountable times but i din face pblm,but yes once my efs got corrupted in sgs1 but i had bckup......anyways wat u do first factory wipe,clear cache,cache prtition then do a clean install of stock rom tht ur kies shows not any otha stock,,,then use the correct cf root for rooting an for cwm...check if all is good then install hellcat and make a new image of efs(only if phone is all good)then will c later if ya got prblm

Nothing but stock ki4 results in unknown baseband. That is the problem. No matter what I flash or how I flash it, results are the same.
I only managed to get it to work once with efs pro on a different firmware (lp7). The phone didn't reboot and and after a couple of minutes it was fine until reboot.

There's a known 'Unknown baseband' bug when you charge the phone and flash new roms. Take out the battery for 180 seconds. Put it back in. Go into recovery wipe cache, format cache, wipe dalvik cache. Reboot. See if it works.
Will try when I get home and I'll post the results.

Reboot with no charger connected, issue solved?
If not, flash another modem (doesn't matter which one) and reboot (unconnected)

So this is weird... In four days, the ROM or phone has froze on me about half a dozen times now. The first time when I was setting it up by as I had just done a flash of the ROM. While setting it up, the phone decided to suddenly slow down all of a sudden to a crawl, up to the point where everything started to get washed out and freeze on me. Force restart by holding Volume Up + Power was the only solution to fix it. Just now, my sister had it connected to her computer and was transferring music over into the internal SD when suddenly, the same thing happened. Again, only solution was to force restart. Anyone have this happen to them before? Everything is completely stock except that we're on Dorimanx 5.3 kernel. Then the other times, it would either slow down and freeze in the CWM Recovery Menu, or when she is texting, playing games, etc. There aren't that many apps installed at all. Reflash of kernel doesn't solve the problem.

Could it be that I need to flash the phone with official ICS + bootloader + PIT? I jumped straight from stock Gingerbread to custom ICS.

try doing a wipe data/factory reset as that is normally a fix to these kind of problems. Also clear cache and dalvik and that should fix the problem!

Do not use the .pit file unless you understand 100%sure about what you are doing. That's probably the easiest way to bork your device.
Edit: try flashing a different kernel. Try dark knight or fluxi. I think it would solve your issues

I would get an official rom, and flash it with odin, (no repartition is required) then install your fav. custom rom

I can't wipe data/factory reset in CWM for some reason when I first tried to install the custom ROM. Never tried again... I wonder if it's because my I9100 is brickable.
I have cleared cache and dalvik cache but no luck. It even slowed down and froze in CWM Recovery.

I know what I'm doing. Flashed with PIT many times before on my Captivate. Haven't tried PIT on her I9100 though. I haven't broken my phone with PIT yet, even though there's quite a few PITs out there lol.
I've read of others running the same combo as me, but they're fine so I wonder what else could cause this...

The ICS ROM from the Q&A Sticky should work right? Her I9100 is brickable so.... Gotta be careful.
Flash a stock rom, go to sammobile.com and find one then try again?

If I helped you press thanks!
format cache/data/system , then make all wipes , then put your phone in download mode , flash a stock ROM from samfirmware.com , then root your phone !
Running the latest Dorimanx 5.5 kernel and still getting the same problem. In fact, I noticed that if you set it to Performance under Kernel Tweaks in Recovery, the problem is more apparent. Setting it to default causes the issue too.
So, I somehow managed to brick my phone using factory reset on CM9, and subsequently flashed back a stock firmware with Heimdall. Version was LPO (Nordic). However, something went wrong, as no matter what I did (several resets, dalvik wipes with cwm, permissions), the status bar would not appear. Not good for usability.
When flashing, I skipped the modem, boot.bin, the .sbl file and param.lfs. Just to be safe.
I'm currently back on CM9 nightly. Works perfectly.
I'd like to flash a clean stock ROM so I can take a nandroid backup of it (one without cf-root, now that I know how to get temporary cwm); is there something obvious I did wrong? Could I for example format /system prior to flashing to remove any trace of CM9. Would that even help? I'm on Linux, so I can't use Odin or Kies.

I'd thought that a factory reset is a full wipe, but I guess I was mistaken. I'll Google a bit more about it and perhaps then try formatting the system partition as well later today.

Still not working
Hm. So I tried flashing stock again after formatting /system (LPG version this time, since LPO was pulled by Samsung) and now my phone is stuck in the "S" screen. (A bootloop, I guess? I'm not sure of the terminology). I can get into stock recovery and even CWM (it's on the external SD) but no amount of factory resets or dalvik wipes do anything. Should I have wiped something else as well?
Flashing seemingly went successfully, but this time the stock rom won't even boot :/ What could cause that? I skipped the bootloaders and modem & params.lfs again but those should be safe to leave out, right? (I've never touched them when flashing, only kernels and the filesystem images)
Update: Was able to install LPO, but the glitch is still present, even after reformatting /system.

I tried LPQ (I wanted Nordic) and it works. Can't update OTA though. I guess it's the newest version that my operator has, then? BRB backing this one up...:good:
Status update: gained access to Odin and successfully flashed LPG/NEE. Now on true stock firmware; no idea why Heimdall failed. Might be the firmware was corrupted.

Hi there,
My SIII i9300 has been rooted and flashed with CM from CM 10.x to 11.x. Hoewever, recently it started to not give any audio during voice calls trough the normal mic. Speakers do work.
So, i've tried reflashing, clearing cache / dalvik etc. To no avail.
I then tried stock rom and for some reason this seems to do the trick.
As i'm not really a great fan of the Samsung bloatware and the 'awesome' skin overlay of samsung i would like to fix this issue.
I also tried some different roms to no avail. ( Also, i installed cm 10.2 because that used to be working fine)
I then tried installing different modems via CWM and ODIN. (BUELK1) and (CEEL1). It's a dutch phone on vodafone.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Btw, currently i'm running CM 11 nightly see below. Android 4.4.2
My baceband is currently i9300CEELL1
Kernel version 3.0.64-CM-gb1c5066
CM 11-20140228
greetinges, Volc
Try installing the ROM before wiping everything, including System ( data is recommended, as long as you don't have something important not backed up). And with 4.4 try to use MK6 modem or higher.

Hi Andry!
Many thanks for your reply. So I should turn back stock, install cm and that mk6 without wiping? I'm not sure if cm will install without the wipe..
The mk6 modem, do you have any clue where to search it?

I thought you found the modems on www.boeffla-kernel.de . You can find them in the Download section. Also, if you are on CM11 (or any other ROM actually), you should download the ROM tog want to flash on your external SD Card, reboot into recovery, wipe system, cache, dalvik cache and data, flash the ROM, reboot system and use it for a few moments at least ( I would recommend you do that so that you won't get bootloop). Then, reboot into download mode, connect phone to Odin and flash the ROM. I would recommend wipe shading cache and dalvik cache, just for a flawless experience.

I saw this phone firsthand. (Hi volcomoo!)
The roms were flashed OK, double triple quadruple wiping probably wont make any difference.
The weird thing is that with CM installed there seems to be a hardware issue, when we flash the phone back to stock, everything works. I guess the developers will say "logcat or it didn't happen"....
