menu and back button isn't responding nor working,
flash back cf-root, tried another kernel nothing works,
i flashed back to DXLP7 with pit file, wipe everything. and still nothing works.
So you never thought of wiping and flashing the ROM your phone came with to check whether it was a phone problem, a firmware problem or some app causing problems?

Hey all.
I was on MIUI 1.9.2 and flashed VillainRom (wiped everything as usual) and after the reboot, I couldn't get any signal. Went to the mobile network screen and I get an error saying I don't have a sim card in my phone.
My baseband and IMEI all read unknown.
Tried restoring a nandroid with no luck.
Are there any fixes or do I need to send it off to be fixed?

Another problem with Custom Rom!
Anyway, do a Factory Reset, if it doesn't work then flash Stock ROM.

Didn't realise there were CWM modems available. All I've found are for Odin..

This might be a long shot but try toggling airplane mode on, reboot the phone and once fully booted toggle airplane mode off.
This issue has nothing to do with the Rom you flashed, (not VillainRom anyway) it seems in all your flashing you may have messed up your EFS partition, some people got it back when they flashed a stock ROM, if you don't, you may need to get in contact with Odia, he can assist you with getting your IMEI back

Flashed KG3 fully, nothing.
looked inside the KG3 zip again and found a tar with EFS in the name. flashed it via Odin and all is well.
Thanks for your help.

Good for you it worked .
Hi Guys
I flashed the leaked ICS but hate it. Can I flash to stock GB via Odin? What about the baseband versions etc.., would it matter?
Sorry, I read another thread but it's unclear and I want to avoid bricking. Thanks
As far as what I've read you can flash stock from Odin or even use CWM to a previous nandroid of gingerbread.

If you got your Note from AT&T, simply flash this stock ODIN:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
I went from ICS back to Gb cause I missed the tethering and it was easy. Just make sure you clear the caches and all should be well.
Thanks.. I was worried of the different baseband would have any adverse effect, but it doesn't sound like it will. I'll give it a try.
I Odin'd back to stock and I'm in a world of ****. My phone cant do anything, it just gets stuck on every swipe and reboots about every 5 minutes. Does anyone have any ideas?
Mines fine..only baseband is different, phone works.
Before I Odin to stock, I booted into recovery, factory reset and wiped cache. Odin, then booted into recovery and performed another factory reset and wiped cache again.

figured it out. My post is below.
lindenhurst said:
You get it figured out? I did the same thing. . My old apps still there. I can tell it is gingerbread, but nothing works now. I hope you got your figured out!!
When I boot into recovery I get the screen that tells me to use the up and down keys and when I choose factory wipe, and press power button, nothing happebs. If I hold it down eventually the phone shuts off. When i restart it, nothing changed.

I had to revert from ICS to GB yesterday and, even tho I am on Telus, I had success by flashing the pda-odin-att-stock.rar image
I can't post links .. I'm too new. But literally.. google what's bolded above and you will find the hotfile link.
It replaced everything (including the recovery) ... FULL system image. Solved everything and brought me back to 100% stock.
So yes, I lost my root and my CWM recovery software.. but it got my phone working again.. I can reflash CWM and re-root as I need.
After the install, wipe cache, factory reset etc.
I too flashed the stock ATT rom but like the previous poster, it gave me a phone which started up but wouldn't work. When I tried to get into recovery mode, it went to a screen with the recovery mode stuff at the top, but with a yellow warning sign in the middle and some words about manual mode, and it would not let me do a wipe or reset.
Here is what I just did that did work.
I flashed the recovery-i717-cwm-b4.tar file with odin. This worked and allowed me to get into the "proper" recovery mode to do a wipe and factory reset, as well as a cache wipe. I then reflashed tieh the stock ATT rom, and my phone now is back to stock.
Pretty much copy and paste, but I have updated it with latest info.

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
just my 2 cents

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?

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.
Just had a really strange problem with S3...I've installed the 1st OTA update, than my phone restarted & ended up in a bootloop. Atm I'm downloading a stock rom & gonna make a hard reset with Odin, but anyway I think it was kinda strange. Did the update just after I got the phone from the box, so it was in completely stock configuration. Any1 else experienced or heard of this kind of situation? Rom baseband: i9300XXALF2

Try force restarting it by pressing volume up+power. It fixes bootloop sometimes.
else just flash a stock ROM using Odin.
Try to restore factory settings in recovery mode.
I presume you still can get there with volume up+home+power buttons pressed simultaneously when the phone is off?

I've tried flashing my Atrix (MB861) with several custom ROMs (latest MIUI, AOKP[JB] and CNA 3.6[JB]).
Installation goes smooth and phone boots up. Everything works, menus, apps and etc.
But after 1-2 minutes system automatically reboots.
Anybody have any ideas or same issues?
Hi, what recovery are you using and have you carried out a full wipe?

Using CWM recovery 5.0.2.0
and yes, doing full wipe before flashing.
Every of mentioned roms restarting in about 1-3 minutes

Try TWRP Recovery it might sort your issue out. I had similar issues and after flashing TWRP I could flash fine only problem is not all ROM's are flashable. You can always go back to CWM's if need be. I tend to switch between the two
get around atrix boot loop

yes you will have either go into recovery mode by holding down the "down volume" and the power button on start up and then pressing the down button till you get to "android recovery" and pressing up on the volume button and then install "fullwipe.zip" and then the rom ".zip" of your choice... or if recovery doesn't work then you will have to flash recovery onto your phone via fastboot.
I have the similar problem on my atrix 4G att version. since yesterday I have flashed several roms including stock fruitcakes and I get reboots after phone boots up it stays for min or so and reboots. what I noticed is in all roms that I tried since yesterday when checking in Settings>about it shows baseband unknown. I suspect baseband is causing problem. question is why baseband is missing in every rom? I never had this problem. do I have to install baseband to fix this issue?
thanks
If you have issues with baseband aka radio, installing ROMs won't fix it since radio is never a part of any ROM (except stock SBFs). You might try flashing another radio (or the same, sometimes that helps too).

just installed baseband and my problems gone. would full wipe delete baseband too? why I lost it this time when I was doing exact same steps before and never lost baseband?
I don't know what you mean by full wipe. It might, or it might not.

i think he means wiping /data, /cache and dalvik chaches
Full wipe means you do a wipe cache, wipe dalvik and wipe data in CWM.
so, where can i get that baseband???
I have the same issue, and have tried installing a few basebands.
It is a Bell phone, with a Bell ROM. I tried a bell, at&t, Orange France, UK baseband. Still no joy.
Any other baseband I can try?
