So i flashed a p4 rom and apparently it was not intended for my p4vzw. i know its sad. anyways no worries, got it back on akop, but now i have a unknown baseband. I am searching and searching but i can't seem to find any files on this.
so questions are
1 anyone know if there are radio files.
2 or do i have to get it back to stock and then root again.
thanks in advanced

The easy way would be going back to stock, the other way, i know that you can find modems on http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3008
One way to fix it
I've had similar issues lately playing around with installing CM10.1 and the modem getting messed up. I did use adb to make a modem.bin backup from stock ICS, but then could not figure out how to flash it. In the end what I did is flash the original stock ROM. Search for STOCK VZW Galaxy Tab 10.1 4G LTE Factory Firmware PDA_HC31_EG01Ba_AP352081user_CP1033580_LTE20110704_0708.tar
That will put it back to the original Gingerbread factory image. It will have to go through multiple OTA updates to get back to ICS. I know this is a pain to do, but my nandroid backup of the OTA updated stock ICS when restored did not restore the modem, and the modem.bin I created from instructions at mygalaxyway.blogspot.com/2012/09/how-to-share-your-nandroid-backup-and.html was kind of useless.

Thanks. But i did the factory image and I still get unknown radio. Odin flashed successfully yet no modem.
I'll flash again maybe it was a fluke
SCH-i905?
You have an SCH-i905?
Yea I do. No matter how many times I flash the factory stock in Odin. The radio doesn't stick
does that mean id be able to use the p4wifi rom? i dont care about the radio files i just want one of the p4wifi roms...
Id love to have the ics radio files to flash too. when I odin the stock image it fixes nothing for me.
So basically I found that my csc file is gone. The Lte factory image doesn't include it. I bet it's on purpose.
What ever the case if we get a csc file for the tab and flash it then flash radios or flash firmware then csc it should work.
That's my guess at least. What's weird is there is no factory Firmware to be found on the Samsung site for the i905. Not sure why.

Please let this happen please
So i am still researching this.
I am going to write Samsung mobile to see if they will release the firmware for the tab. I am sure it has to do with Verizon not wanting anyone to keep that i905 that rooted it or flashed the stock firmware.
I can't be the only one that is missing the CSC file after an odin stock firmware flash. and i think its very odd that samsung has every firmware i can think of except the i905.
Im just taking stabs here.
I am also assuming thats the problem, thats the one part of the /system that's missing.
it would be cool if anyone had a i905 with lte and posted their CSC file.
how would i go about requesting that? just post
"[request] CSC file for i905 galaxy tab 10.1"
i have never asked for a request before.

I have done that. When i flash the stock firmware i still don't have a baseband and i can't do any updates.
I have no problem rooting. I just don't any radios.
maybe i am missing something here but once i flash back to firmware stock the radios don't stick so when i when boot up i get unknown radio and no updates are ever found.

I have the same problem. I tried flashing modem it works fine but when I try flashing lte_modem.bin I get an error in red writing and it doesn't flash. I've tried this with every version of Odin. I used the modem files from the full Odin image. I think it was EG01. I download it multiple times nothing has worked.
k,
so if anyone is interested, i finnaly got around to digging and came up with a processes to get the modems back. its technical and i am sure i am doing something wrong cause i can't get it to get on the network. could be a lte chip at this point. anyways.ill try tomorrow
it must be rooted. go to dev settings and check debug and root accsess: apps and adb.
then download EFS professional. go to restore and restore. nothing will change.
flash original firmware with odin.
once it installs you can see your radios... this it where it stops. I can't get it to access LTE. it has correct time and knows its on the verizon network. but no lte.
I then rooted to see if i could carry my radio files to 4.2.2 and i can't. radio unknown. tomorrow i am going to go to VZW and ask them if its a bad sim. will update tomorrow or when i get around to it.
Update:
So it was a bad sim. once a new one was put in i got LTE but now it wont update. Ha one problem after another. So now i can't flash 4.2.2 cause i loose radio. I believe you have to be on ICS before you can flash to 4.2.2, anyways its been a few days and it still thinks its up to date.
So now i need to know how to force an update..... will update if anything else happens

Well....I think I might have done something really stupid. It should be obvious at the moment that I didn't understand completely what I was doing.
I just picked up my SGSII today from AT&T. In reading around I had hopes of a new ROM as I was very happy with CM on my captivate....unfortunately while in the process I followed instructions from an (obviously) european version of the phone and installed the KG6 modem....now I have no data connection.
I'm feeling really foolish...is there any way that I can get the stock modem for the AT&T U.S. Galaxy S2? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Anybody? My phone is completely non-functional at the moment.
I've learned my lesson; I'll leave the modding to the more adept, I just need to get my phone back.
Try the stock plus root rom for odin/heimdall and that should over write the modem you flashed

FYI, you shouldn't expect rapid replies on a Monday morning.
The modem is currently missing from my "unbrick" packages, but this is an omission. I'll dump modem.bin tonight and post it up in my unbrick thread.
insaneturbo13 is not correct - as I said, my stock unbrick package is currently missing the modem.bin file. I will correct this tonight.

What would be the easiest way, If possible, to install european ROMS on the ATT version? Maybe, install the ROM without their kernel and modem and replace them AT&T's ?

I got all excited when my brother got his gs2 and I flashed a euro rom before I realized what I had done. I used entropy's stock package to get him fixed. Then he calls me from home and starts *****ing about how he can't use data unless he's on wireless. I put 2+2 together.
I am, like the others here, super eager to get that modem file when you post it. It would be a huge help. If it's not too much work on your part entropy, could you post a cwm version of the modem as well? I'd rather not have to flash him back to stock again just to fix the modem.
He's an iphone expat so I'm trying to make his android life smooth as possible.
I'm going to get home around 6 PM Eastern.
Initially I'm going to post up a Heimdall (and hopefully also Odin) flashable image of just the modem binary for those in a hurry, then I'll work on a CWM zip (need to find a reference one to pick apart in case it's different from the Infuse), then I'll upload a new more complete "unbrick".
Thanks for the donation cgrums.
OK, here's an emergency flash package for modem recovery - http://www.multiupload.com/JTFK1K1FOA
It's just a little too large to be an XDA attachment, sorry if multiupload is a problem for you.
It contains both a raw modem.bin, and a .tar file containing modem.bin (yes, redundant!)
It is NOT a CWM-flashable ZIP. Repeat, do NOT try to flash this ZIP in CWM. Seriously, it won't work!
The following method for flashing the modem IS tested:
Unzip the attached package
Use Heimdall to flash from the command line
Code:
heimdall flash --modem modem.bin
The following method for flashing the modem should work but is NOT tested:
Use Odin to flash the contained .tar file, using the Phone slot for the .tar
Man, before I even leave work! Awesome! Thanks again!
I made an error above - I believe in Odin, modem has to be in the Phone slot not PDA.
As I said in the post above - Heimdall is tested, Odin is not.
As to CWM - the maintainer of the I9100 modem collection frowns upon CWM for modem flashing - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950&page=2 . It sounds like CWM-flashing of modems might have issues on our device, I haven't had time to investigate but right now I'm going to trust pulser_g2's judgement for until I have more time to figure out GS2-isms of modem flashing. I've got a ton of stuff to do and I'm going to drop CWM-flashing of modems in priority for now since it should rarely be needed.

I flashed the tar in odin using phone, the phone rebooted, but it will only make calls. The phone cannot use the internet when the wifi is off. Do you have any suggestions? I am going to try flashing your entire recovery image when you update it tonight.
What does your baseband version say now? If it flashed properly it should say UCKH7.
If it doesn't, it didn't flash for some reason. I know it flashes properly with heimdall, odin is kind of untested.

I had my brother do the factory reset, wiping the user data. That seemed to fix it (although we did flash your modem prior). Thanks so much!
I am happy to report that I am on my way back to functionality!
I've noticed a difference in connectivity though. At times, typically out-of-doors, I get decent signal strength and HSPA+ connection. Call service is a bit spottier than I remember it before the hijinks.
Inisde buildings is a completely different story...I can't seem to maintain a data connection of any type.
My baseband shows I777UCKH7 so I believe the flash went well. I'm planning to flash back to stock to get a good starting point going forward.
Anybody else experiencing similar issues? Thoughts?
This community is awesome!
I think someone did indicate that things were funky until they wiped - not sure though.
One click + CWM ICScrewed = in call audio problem
Hi I used your on click root kernel and then used CWM to flash the ICScrewed ROM .zip file.
Now I am having a problem where when I make or receive a call there is no audio. I still have data and wifi connectivity though it seems.
Could it be a problem with my modem? If so how do I flash another and where can I find the appropriate one?
Thanks, and sorry I cannot post on the ICScrewed page as I do not have permission to post in development yet.

I have no "one click" kernel. Any "one clicks" are repackaged by someone else and I have no idea what they contain in many cases.
so ive been reading and looking around a lot, eventually decided to go with the overcome experience and everything is running great, xcept for the ebooks app not working on it for the 3G rogers tab
but what ive been trying to find now is the stock Rogers kernel and recovery files in case something does go wrong with the tab and i need to get it back to stock to submit it back for warranty work
the best ive been able to find is this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405324
which is a stock 3.2, and in the thread people are claiming that it is a Rogers version and has the unnecessary Rogers apps on it
i downloaded it and tried it out, and its not a stock Rogers version, doesn't come with the Rogers apps, and when plugged in to Kies it states its not a version that supports updates through Kies, therefore it definetly isn't a stock Rogers version
Just wondering if anyone knows where i can get the files to be able to get my Tab back to Rogers stock version in case something does happen, or do these files simply not exist and since i already flashed over them it's too late to ever go back to stock?
Thanks
That RUXKK2 is exactly the rom I have right now on my Rogers Tab.
I simply assume it has to be flashed through Odin only;
Kies is for "legit" updates only (and sync) ; it is not a dev nor a recovery tool. Maybe it stated updates were not supported because you are rooted.
Doesnt matter anyway; you will receive updates through Samsung Updates anyway directly on your tablet; you'll simply loose root.
i did use odin to flash that stock rom, and no i wasn't rooted, as the rom itself doesn't come with root by default
all i did was flash with odin, it rebooted, then i completed a factory reset/wipe
and then plugged it in to Kies to see if it was in fact a retail stock version and could get the updates through Kies
i dont really care for updating through Kies as im perfectly happy with overcome mod atm, but i would like to have all the stock rogers files (recovery,kernel and rom or w/e else i need) just in case i ever need to revert back to stock to bring the tablet in for warranty issues
the RUXKK2 rom may be stock, but it definitely doesn't include the stock rogers kernel version
any ideas where those could be found? or if it could be extracted from a nandroid backup? i completed a nandroid backup of my stock device before i flashed overcome
Flashing your Nandroid will get you back to stock no? Thats the purpose of it I thought to get you back to your previous state in case something goes wrong. Nandroid backups are flashed through CWM though not Odin, under Backup and restore options.
Nandroid does not backup the kernel.

Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA App
yea, nandroid doesnt back up everything :/
i think the stock kernel and stock recovery files to flash through odin is what would be needed, and judging by the replies im getting i don't think those exist out there for the rogers tablet :/
i even checked http://www.samfirmware.com and couldn't really find a rogers or Canadian version, but sure did find ppl on the forums asking about it
if any1 knows how to maybe get those files off a stock tablet, i do have a 2nd GT 10.1 Rogers that has not been changed or modded in any way that i could attempt to extract the kernel and recovery file from if i knew how
I also am looking for a stock rogers rom. I currently run overcome with no issues, but should I need work done under warranty, I need to flash back to stock before I send it in. The link above was what I also found during a forum search, which kies does NOT recognize. Has anyone been able to find or extract the stock rom that comes with a Rogers 10.1 out of the box?
Ooops mistaken threads..
I flashed my stock att modem to a custom one hoping id get 4g service on my att galaxy note sadly i now have no service. Is there anyway i can find the original modem and flash and get my service back?
You should be able to find what you need here:

If you made a Nandroid backup prior to flashing the modem, which I hope you did and should always do before flashing something new. Then it's just a matter of rebooting to recovery and doing a restore. Fast, easy solution. I'm thinking what you are missing with your newly flashed modem are just the correct AT&T APN settings. Quick search, find, and enter them, perhaps the better solution since you flashed the new modem to seek a better signal in the first place, may as well test it out. EDIT: CPA Poke's link above has this link listed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684711. For sure worth a look.

FYI nandroids don't backup nor restore the modem.
No such thing as a custom modem.
You just flashed a different modem, those binaries are closed source, therefore cannot be modified by us...and I'm pretty sure it would be illegal if we did.

True, but a backup's restore got me going again after I played around with modem's trying out AWS for Wind Mobile. Afterward, my SIM became unrecognized when trying to get back on Rogers with various modem flashes, all to no avail. Forgive my comment, it was late and maybe confessed the 2 different situations. But I restored my original backup of my stock gingerbread, baseband (modem) was back and sim recognized. Restored then again to my ICS based ROM I was running before playing for WInd. Then got flash happy with whatever modem in the link below. So...worked for me..

I tried messing around with the apn settings, but i can't because my sim isnt recognized. Ive also flashed the modems but still no service after trying all of them. What else can i do?
Odin flash from a PC your phones stock ROM is what I would do. Don't forget to save/backup all your important stuff first, because it will wipe everything and bring your phone back to a like new state.

Odin push is the correct method to restore service, but fully wipe the device first....g
I'll try that. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks for the helpeveryone!1
First, sorry if this is the wrong place, etc.
Here's what I got. I have 2 identical s3's. They are the Ntelos version, sch-r530x. One is rooted, custom recovery, and is flashed to hyperdrive verizon rom. Most of it works fine, but there are certain bugs and I need full function back.
The other device is completely stock and received an OTA update to 4.3 the other day.
I need to extract the stock 4.3 and flash it to the rooted phone to get back to a stock version and get back the functions that wont work. My phone being ntelos and the current rom being for verizon has caused quite a few issues that didnt immediately make themselves known. So I just want to be rid of the custom rom.
Now here is where I am finding a problem. My phone is sch-r530x. The verizon rom has it thinking it is an sch-i535. So when I try standard methods, like using KIES, the phone wont be recognized.
I am thinking the best option is to extract the stock rom from the completely stock device and flash it, via odin or cwm recovery, onto the rooted device. I realize I may have to root the stock device to do this, which is fine, I found a method that works for this model, the trouble only began when I flashed the hyperdrive rom (because someone else had reported good compatability....LIES).
ANY HELP HERE IS APPRECIATED!!!
Also, the reason I need to extract the stock rom from the stock device is because being a regional carrier, the ntelos rom is NOWHERE to be found online. Nobody has heard of them from what I have found, and my last 3 phones through them I have basically had to create my own root methods by piecing together bits from tutorials for other models. I have a good track record, and was able to pull it off again with this model, but I screwed up when I flashed this custom rom for the wrong model number, now nothing works quite like it should.
PLEASE HELP
Wrong forum, read the very first thread about US phones.
I'm desperately hoping that someone, somewhere can provide a stock firmware for the Bell SGH-I527M that includes knox. Maybe someone from sammobile is reading this and can post it there. I took the OTA update a week ago, then rooted the phone and flashed CWM recovery on it, no problem at all. Everything was running fine.
Yesterday, I thought I'd give the unofficial CM11 ROM a go, so I took a backup and tried flashing CM11 from CWM - failed. So I thought, "No problem, I'll just restore my backup I made ten minutes ago." That, too, failed. I had nothing to go back to since I was trying to do a super-clean flash of CM11 - wipe data/factory reset, format data, format sdcard, all the steps that I've taken a million times flashing different ROMs on different Samsung phones. So I effectively had no OS on the phone, just recovery.
Went to Sammobile and downloaded the only stock firmware they have available for this device for this carrier. Flashed through Odin and on reboot, got the "secure fail kernel - image size too large" error message. Also tried the emergency firmware recovery through Kies and got the same thing.
So basically, I'm completely stuck. The only thing I can get to boot up is download mode. Does anyone know if there is a different firmware I can flash through Odin to get this device up and running again? I'm given to understand that this has something to do with knox security. That since I took the OTA last week, it updated knox security, then when I flashed the stock firmware from sammobile, this is actually an older firmware that does not include knox. I'm hoping that someone has access to the newest stock firmware for this device for Bell with knox that I can flash through Odin to get back up and running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-GB

So I effectively had no OS on the phone, just recovery.
Went to Sammobile and downloaded the only stock firmware they have available for this device for this carrier. Flashed through Odin and on reboot, got the "secure fail kernel - image size too large" error message. Also tried the emergency firmware recovery through Kies and got the same thing.
So basically, I'm completely stuck. The only thing I can get to boot up is download mode. Does anyone know if there is a different firmware I can flash through Odin to get this device up and running again? I'm given to understand that this has something to do with knox security. That since I took the OTA last week, it updated knox security, then when I flashed the stock firmware from sammobile, this is actually an older firmware that does not include knox. I'm hoping that someone has access to the newest stock firmware for this device for Bell with knox that I can flash through Odin to get back up and running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I'm desperately hoping that someone, somewhere can provide a stock firmware for the Bell SGH-I527M that includes knox. Maybe someone from sammobile is reading this and can post it there. I took the OTA update a week ago, then rooted the phone and flashed CWM recovery on it, no problem at all. Everything was running fine.
Yesterday, I thought I'd give the unofficial CM11 ROM a go, so I took a backup and tried flashing CM11 from CWM - failed.
