[Q] Problem with modem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I think I have a problem with my modem. Whenever I try and make a call it just gets stuck on dialling, no tone. When I try and ring the phone the dialing phone makes the correct sound but my phone doesn't ring. I can send and receive texts.
I'm running CM10.1 with Siyah-Dorimanx kernel 9.39. Baseband is XXLS9
Are there any suggestions?

I ran a backup in Cwm, full wipe, flashed stock ROM. Checked that phone calls were Ok.
Then installed CM10.1, calls still Ok. Restored backup and calls were broken.
Flashed stock, then CM10.1 this time advanced restore just data and everything seems to be Ok. Don't think I'll mess with modem again!

Phone not working

When I make or receive calls the person cannot hear me but I can hear them :/ I recently flashed back to stock rom then installed one click root. I have tried to factory reset and re-install rom but same issue.

[Q]

Having trouble with what I think is my modem. I went from saurom(phone working fine) to unofficial
ROM. I didn't do much testing and I flashed a theme that put me in a boot loop. So I restored my nandroid backup before the theme and now I notice that I am having a hard time receiving calls, most of them go straight to VM. I can however make calls fine, and send and receive texts. My data seems slow or unresponsive at times too. Any ideas?

I ask, did you wipe everything? Did you do it twice? Even with your nand restore?
Just a thought, CWM is beta-ish and might have flaked?
A good test would be to flash / restore to stock and see if you still experience the same issue.
I've always wondered if tid-bits might not be wiped, not wiped right / clean and or get left behind.
I've noticed that even the stock reset to factory and format usb storage leaves things behind. I've "wiped" a few notes and they still had previous pictures, contacts and directories still accessible afterwards.
YMMV, just suggestions, you assume risk and responsibilities.

[Q] The STRANGEST thing!

First of all, I have flashed roms hundreds of times but now....
This time, I unfortunately(maybe, not sure) I put the rom file in bootloader section in Odin(pc) and not in PDA.
Flashed Omega 7 and experienced that I had no sound in incoming/outgoing calls.
Did many factory resets, formatted system, data, etc.
Flashed stock rom and rooted(Chainfire CF-root 6.3). Everything works fine, until I do some system changes and reboots. Then there's no sound in incoming/outgoing calls.
Here's what I do.
With Root Explorer I rename /system/media/audio/ui/PowerOn.ogg to PowerOn.ogg.bak.
Tests incoming/outgoing calls and everything is ok.
Reboots, and the sound is gone.
Rename the ogg-file to original and reboot. Everything is back to normal.
Renamed Camera_click.ogg to Camera_click.ogg.bak and rebooted. The sound on incoming/outgoing is fine.
So. It seems that if I do spesific changes in the system I loose the sound in incoming/outgoing calls. Because of that the phone does'nt like customs roms, like Omega 7.
So my question is.
What really happens when flashing a rom in bootloader sections of Odin?
And how do I get out of this problem? Flash bootloader from original S3? But where do I find it?
The phone works perfectly otherwise.

[Q] AoCP 7.2 Phone doesn't receive calls

I installed the Collective's AoCP 7.2. Everything appears to work except when someone calls me the phone doesn't receive the call. No ring, no vibration, nothing on the missed call list. I just get a voice mail all of a sudden. Everything on the phone worked fine with until this rom install. Any ideas?
I just had a friend try and call me. This time I was watching and saw a message telling me the phone app had crashed. I'm going to try a re-flash and if that doesn't work I'll go to a different rom.
try flash a compatible radio. It will work
Sounds like a bad flash. Might try wiping and flashing after redownloading the ROM. Before i did that though, I'd try extracting the dialer.apk from system/priv app in the ROM zip, paste it into your system/priv app folder select yes to overwrite current, reboot and see if that fixed it. I know for a fact the phone works on that ROM. I've used it.

Emergency calls only aleatory on 4.3 Stock

Hi everyone,
I really need your help for a problem that i have.
I was on 4.3 stock with Boeffla Kernel, everything is good, i installed after CM11 to test it and after a day, i flashed back on XEF (XXUGNJ2 / ) 4.3 Stock ROM with Philz recovery only, all other things are Stock.
My phone work fine, but after an aleatory time, my phone is on "Emergency calls only", i must enter on Airplane mode and back to network mode.
My phone work normally, but after hours, it went back to "Emergency calls only"....
I reflashed XXUGNJ2 again with Philz WIPE, and the same problem, the phone works and after a time it became on "Emergency calls only"..
I search on the net, and found there is a patch Modem/Kernel which resolve this, i flashed them and WIPE ALL, the same problem, it work a time and went back to "Emergency calls only"...
Do you have an idea to resolve my problem?

Try to flash another modem and see how it works.
Be sure you flash a modem compatible with your region and carrier.
Thanks for your reply.
Being on xxugna8, i already flashed XXEMG4, and the same problem, worked a while and fall on "Emergency calls only".
Any help please?
Have you done a clean install when you switched to CM11? I would be you I would do again a clean install of rom+gapps+kernel+modem and see how it goes.
I didn't stay along time in CM11 to see if the problem is there in CM11, but i want to stay in Stock ROM.
I always install with a clean install (Wipe with Install a new ROM in Philz Recovery).
