No Voice on Phone Call - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I flash any AOSP based rom and then try to revert back to Samsung based roms I lose the telephone functionality i.e I'm unable to hear people when on a call. This can only be resolved by flashing stock rom via Odin and then flashing recovery followed by custom rom.
I really don't know the reason as I've used AOSP based roms frequently on my galaxy r and never faced this issue.
I do a full wipe followed by system format before moving from AOSP to Samsung based roms.
For Instance: I flashed PAC rom and for some reason wanted to go back to Omega rom. So I took a backup etc , wiped data , caches and system and flashed the rom. Everything else works but no voice on call unless I flash stock ROM via odin.
Any input will be appreciated.

No. Once I flash the stock rom via odin for instance xxemc3 and then flash custom recovery and install the rom via cwm it works.
My point is that why do I have to take the step of flashing the rom via odin and then installing the rom? This problem only occurs when I move from AOSP based roms to sammy based ones.
When I move from samsung based custom to another samsung based custom [omega rom to null ] it does not occur and neither does it occur during a switch between AOSP based roms.

[Q] Rom switching tip

Hello there, this is my first day with my Samsung Galaxy S III. Coming from the Nexus, x user of S1, S2, Note.
On my Touchwiz rom days, When switching between Touchwiz & AOSP roms, used not to be directly successful. So is it the same case on my S III now ? Like when flashing an AOSP rom, when reverting back, what are the required steps? Thank you. Enjoying this device, the display is just AWESOME
all you have to do is make a factory reset in cwm and flash a zipped custom rom or simply put your mobile in download mode and flash the stock rom via odin.
I just flashed CM10 from Stock 4.0.4 Touchwiz rom. So now basically, if I want to flash a Jelly Bean Touchwiz rom, I just flash in CWM? And when I want to go back from Jelly Bean to AOSP, same thing? - Just trying to avoid bootloops and using Odin or such...TY

Yes you can flash back and forth..........just make sure you WIPE WIPE WIPE correctly. so you do NOT have those issues.
believe it or not improper or not fully wiping your phone before flashing a new rom are alot of the reasons why some people have bugs that others do not.

[Q] I can't install a 4.1.2 ROM anymore?

So i have X-treme ROM which is android version 4.2.2, and i want to switch to OMEGA ROM which is samsung base 4.1.2. but it seems to stuck on the loading screen. and yes, i did wipe data and factory reset and cashe and dalvik cashe (sorry if i spelled that wrong). now im not asking that omega isnt working. (i would then go ask the developer) im asking that, does upgrading to 4.2.2 prevents to switch back to 4.1.2? because it didnt also happened to me with OMEGA, but with others ROMS that have sammy base. and i also tried to flash 4.1.2 with odin all new clear without any root and ROM. but didnt work. so, does 4.2.2 prevent me to switch back to 4.1.2?
I have the same issue. MIUIv5 is based on 4.1.2 stock too and it does boot up. I think you could give a shot restoring a stock rom and flashing rom from base

Can't make calls with AOSP ROMs

Hello everyone,
It has been more than one year that I've been using Samsung-based custom ROMs on my S3, but now when I want to use an AOSP ROM, I can't make calls with them!
I've tried Cyanogenmod 10.2 (latest weekly) and SlimBean 4.3 (latest stable) and when I try calling someone, the call ends immediately. If I try opening the phone app -> settings -> Additional settings, I get a "Call settings error: Network or SIM card error". This does not happen when I use the stock ROM or a Samsung-based ROM (like Wanamlite or Omega, which I've used the most).
What should I do? I'd appreciate any help!

Try flashing different modem... That might be the problem... as EFS partitions for OLD modems and NEW modems are completely different format...

Seemed like a good idea - I tried flashing 3 different versions (via Odin) and none of them made the calls work
Maybe I'm just using the wrong ones?
Can anyone link me the latest modems available for the international S3 that works with the 4.3.x android versions and the new EFS partition formats? I'd appreciate it so much, as I can't find anything past 4.1.2 versions :good:

the cm roms use the modems that exist on the rom your phone is already consisting of. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740061 check the above link for any modems. hope it helps you. may be you are flashing the roms in some wrong way.

That's EXACTLY the problem! Those modems from 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 samsung-based ROMs won't work on the 4.3.x builds from CM or SlimBean and I can't find any that works

Also, I've checked this modem+RIL thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076857
And it says "Official CM10.1 uses open source RILs so these Samsung RILs won't be compatible". Well, I guess I'll try flashing CM 10.1 instead of 10.2 to see if it works, but the point is... It seems that if I go from a samsung-based ROM to an AOSP one it will fail unless I find a working modem or an AOSP ROM that includes the damn modem

To install the stock ROM I do a full wipe and flash it via Odin;
To install the Clockworkmod Recovery I flash it via Odin;
To install any custom ROM, be it sammy-based or AOSP, I do a full wipe and install it via CM recovery;
To install the modems I flash them via Odin
What could be wrong?
Also, I really appreciate the help!

Are you on CM based ROM? If yes you need modem without RIL.
EDIT: Sorry you mentioned that.

[Q] Mobile Network not available after Flashing to custom ROM

Hi guys,
This is my first time posting a thread in here. I need your help.
My phone is Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100.
Baseband version: I9100XXKI3
(screenshots attached for more info)
I rooted my phone By using Odin3-v1.85. and flashed the recovery to cwm 5.x (i can't remember version) and tried to install custom ROM OMNI
(omni-5.0.2).
I accidently downloaded and installed OMNI for i9100G version. But my phone is i1900 version.
(I downloaded this omni-5.0.2-20141222-i9100g-HOMEMADE.zip ). i forgot to backup previous ROM .
Then i was unable to Turn ON my phone because every time i turn it on, it come back to recovery it self (it's a bootloop i think).:crying::crying:
then i flashed the recovery to CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100 (version 6.0.2.7) and installed custom ROMs and tried (PACMAN,CM,AICP).
It works fine. everything is just perfect. But i can't make calls or receive.
It says "Mobile Network not available". when i call my phone from another phone i hear ringing it. But nothing shows in my phone. after few seconds i got a Missed call Alert. But this happens only sometimes. All the other times. i cannot call it from another phone.
I tried reset and flash modem using CWM as well as from odin. but no luck.
Please Friends Help me. I don't know whether i put this thread to right section or not. sorry about that.
I did all of these things by surfing XDA forum (as a Guest). And i'm happy about what you guys are doing. Keep it up.:good::good:
(sorry for bad english)
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

I reflashed to stock rom and it's working fine.
But i tried to install custom Rom again but no luck there. I was again stuck with Mobile network problem.
May be the problem with kernal.

You will have to flash stock 4.1.2 rom or try a 4.1.2 custom rom. The problem may be caused by the drivers in the built in kernels but I'm not completely sure.
No mobile network on custom roms
I have already flashed the 4.1.2 jellybean rom but 4.1.2 rom also havr bugs. Lock screen doesn't work, I had tried hard resetting but it doesn't solve the problem. I Want use 5.0.2 hazy , cynogenmod, pacman , dirty unicorn, etc and other many custom roms but I'm facing same problem no mobile network, other than that everything work fine....

You mean stock 4.1.2 rom? That's very weird for a 4.1.2 stock rom. Maybe an android 4.2 or 4.3 rom?
You are saying that I should try 4.2 or 4.3 custom rom??

use another baseband version. I use XXMS4 and I recomend it.

Yep.
I am having same problem with the network connectivity. It happens with all custom ROMs that aren't stock based. I am stuck with Chameleon ROM which is a hybrid and has a stock samsung base. It is a great ROM but is outdated. I would like to upgrade. Any solution to this problem is welcomed. = D
Okay I think I got a solution here. The procedure is:
1) Make sure you are on a stock based ROM or other ROM where your network is working.
2) Backup EFS.
3) Flash custom ROM of your choice.
4) Restore EFS if there is no network.
Done.
To restore efs, you can use any app tailored to do so but for me it didn't work. I followed this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-recover-imei-9-steps-t1264021
Follow the steps carefully and you will have network in any ROM you like. Hit thanks if helped.
PS: Sorry for double post
EDIT 2: Even though my network is back, which confirms that the problem was with the missing IMEI. I found out that the IMEI I got now is a fake one. Got to get the real one back now..
i did flash android 10 in my moto one power
after that i went back to stock rom but noe netwrok is not showing up

Phone Bootloops with any ROM apart from Touchwiz based ROMs

I have a Samsung S3 16gb i9300
every time I flash a rom like BlissPOP, CyanogenMod, and other AOSP roms my phone bootloops. But for Touchwiz based roms like Hyper Rom it works just fine.
I really want to fix this issue so i can try out Cyanogenmod 14.1
I've never flashed a late custom rom but I'm thinking that there may be a file you need to flash to get the rom to start.
I couldn't tell you what file because i simply don't know but it could be a certain recovery or kernel etc..
Beamed in by telepathy.
Is the 9300 supported by these roms? Using the correct version of twrp? Phone is running the latest bootloader and modem?

Yes all the roms I flashed are supported
Im using the latest version of twrp for i9300 I think its version 3.0.2-2
Baseband is I9300XXUGMK6
I'm currently using hyper-rom
I can only flash touchwiz based roms anything else makes my phone bootloop

I think this issue started when by mistake I flashed a rom for the i9350 (another version of the s3)
Using Odin I restored my stock firmware to touchwiz 4.3
But still I can't flash any other roms apart from touchwiz based
I think I'm missing a file or something is wrong with my bootloader
