i have a rooted and custom rom-ed galaxy s2 running slim bean build 4. after i flashed this and rebooted my device, i noticed that i was not receiving any signal. after going into settings > about phone> phone status, i saw that there was nothing for the signal and carrier was unknown and the signal was at 0. i went into the contacts application and tried to see if my contacts show up....they dont. after clicking settings in it, it said that i could import contacts but the only option available was through my phone storage. shouldnt there be an option to import from sim?

Alright, so I had efs problem two days back. No imei and network. So I restored to stock and problem was sorted. But now if I try to install and i9100 based stock jb port, I end up with a black screen. Even other roms ported from i9100 cause the same problem. Any kind of help would be great.

[Q] How to trick the phone manufacturers?

Hey guys,I hope to solve my problem.I read threads regarding this but couldnt understand.
So here it is,I got a micromax A87 phone a month ago,then I rooted it.I removed the manufucturers RAM hungry apps.Everything was fine,but from yesterday on call(both incoming and outgoing) I cant here the voice,but they can hear mine.Though I can hear them on speaker and headphone.
So now I want to give to company service center so what should I do?
1.Flash the phone with custom rom or
2.Unroot and install all those preinstalled manufacturer apps
I would like to do the second method.So my question is in which method I can fake that device was not rooted so I can reclaim my warranty? suggest if there is another method and how does the manufacturer come to know if i rooted the phone?
Try a factory custom rom. Then remove root. Most manfacturers dont care though.

Unroot your phone and give it to service center.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
There are two solutions
1.you could find another member with your phone and get the apps that you deleted and unroot and give it to service!
Or
2. You could flash stone random rom and brick you device completely and give it back to service saying that it won't start up and hope they don't find out!
Personally I'd suggest you go for 1

I did this same thing. I did an unroot, and re rooted. that did the trick for me!
unrooted using this http://stockroms.net/file/GalaxyNote/SGH-i717/ICS/I717UCLF6_I717ATTLF6_ATT.zip
and then re-root with your favorite recovery.

huh, crazysause. I wouldn't have thought to check the root, but then again most of the problems i've heard that come from rooting is breaking the phone.
Yeah, usually huge lag happens when you flash a modem that the ROM doesn't like, or you flash a mod that changes your framework, like the 15- toggles mods, or 4-way reboot menu mod, if the bases aren't the same.

That's understandable, and I'd expect that from flashing a rom or radio just not when rooting. Guess I'm just lucky that hasn't happened to me

Yeah, I really don't understand how changing root permissions cause lag, unless the incorrect kernel was flashed. That would at best cause lag, at worst cause brick.

Even if you flash a stock ROM , unless its a complete update package, you don't change the modem.

[Q] How to upgrade to custom 4.x.x roms?

Hey Guys,
I have a Bell Galaxy note I7I7M with T-Mobile Modem Using on Mobilicity Network In Canada. At present, I am using Padawan V8 4.0.4 rom. Works perfectly fine but would like to try some other Custom Jelly Bean Roms. My previous attempts to flash went in vain with issues such as not able to pick up signal (on SlimBean) and not able to Call and recieve phone calls even with signals ( on Jedi Rom). I guess, probably will be a radio issue. Some one please guide me how to Flash and update to custom Jelly bean Roms.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers

Did not work?
Right here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147095
I'm on 4.2.2 and had to change kernel in order to have call audio. Flappjaxxx kernel is another one you could try, but it didn't work well for me.
I'm using Feb 29 build of the kernel which in the forum for my current ROM had the most feedback.
Basically just download the kernel, put it on root of sd card and boot into recovery. Wipe cache and then install zip from sd and choose kernel. When done reboot. Always make a backup just in case
This boot will take longer than usual. Don't worry. When booted, it will say something like "upgrading android" or something
After that, enjoy.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong at any point! I am fairly certain that ^ those steps are correct, but just in case
And lastly, I hope this doesn't become a "best kernel thread" try a few out if you aren't sure and see which one works best for you. I just recommend 4aces because it worked for me
Carry on all

Go download team win recovery project 2.4.4 I believe it is. The status 7 error is a out of date recovery. You can flash it via Odin or through your current recovery

Flash kernel after ROM. Most ROMs come with a kernel in the zip, so it would overwrite any that you install. I got status 7 and decided to try a different ROM because I was too lazy to update recovery

Ok. I have a problem here. phone reboots when i touch turn on usb connection, any idea? want to flash chris kernel
That is very common for JB ROMs actually. Had that on my old phone as well... Trying to remember what I did Try a different kernel and see if that works any. I don't think it happens to me anymore but it did before.
I'm gonna spend some time searching and see what that yields. I know you can boot into recovery and enable USB transfer that way. It's supposed to be faster because it bypasses a few firmware components. But either way, that is a nuisance.
Okay, try going Settings->Storage->(Menu soft key)->USB options
From here you should be able to enable mass storage, or if that reboots on you like before, try ticking MTP. Maybe try checking developer options and see if USB debugging is enabled or not. Unfortunately I don't know which to have ticked and which ones not
Anyone? Cuz right now all of mine are unchecked (and that doesn't sound right)

Of course it's rooted. Name one non-stock based rom which is not rooted.
Go to developer options using the method above. Then change root access to apps + adb. Some users say just simply changing it to apps works, try it.

Then maybe post up in the Slim (unofficial) thread. Make sure to say that you've also switched to apps+adb, as that's what will be thrown at you otherwise.
