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

I did - I tried three versions (old, new and random one) and none worked
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!

i was on the latest indian samsung official firmware. later i rooted and flashed cm 10.2 by temasek. i faced no such problems till now when ever i flash aosp or aokp roms. i didn't say you WERE wrong, i said you MAY be wrong. try flashing the latest f/w of your region first and then flash any of your like custom roms.

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

Firstly: Please give more detailed information (which kernel do you use, which ROM did you use before the problem occurred?)
Secondly: It is possible that you can't acess recovery mode anymore when flashing new updates. Happens with CM 10.2 OTA Update right now. The solution would be to flash a new recovery using Heimdall (Open-Source ODIN alternative) [Didn't try that, but should theoretically work] or, mor simple, a new kernel. Dorimany v9.34 is suited perfectly for that. Download here: http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ .

Well, i used Carbon Rom for a few weeks, so that was definitly the rom. Talking about the kernel, I dont even know how to install one.. haha Now in kernel version it says..
3.0.64 CM gb07657a
[email protected] #1 (I dont know what kernel it is)
Yeah but even if I dont want to flash an update, just boot recovery, I cant. Have you any link to know about Heimdall? Or how to install Dorimany? Im a beginner I have to say.
Thanks

You installed a Kernel while rooting your phone: Its the .tar that you have to put into the PDA section in ODIN. There are Kernels with .tar and .zip: .tar files are only flashable using Odin while .zip files are flashed using the recovery just like you flash ROMs. I guess your Kernel is a custom CM Kernel (CM for Cyanogen Mod). Carbon ROM is probably based on CM. There is currently no other workaround to get your recovery back then flashing a new kernel/recovery. I am currently working on an easy workaround for this problem, but it will take a while.
Dorimanx is downloadable here http://dorimanx.shine.sk/ and should be compatible: Just flash it like you did when rooting your phone in the beginning, just with Dorimanx .tar in PDA. Recovery should work again afterwards.
My mistake: It's Dorimanx, not Dorimany
Hit Thanks and just ask if you need additional help!

Yeah, I remember.. it was siyah kernel.
So in your opinion I should flash Dorimanx by Odin then? No other way to fix isnt it? and.. in dorimanx page, which one of all them should I download?

1. Yes you should
2. Not right now, maybe in the future, flashing recovery.img using Heimdall would probably help, but I didn't try it myself and using Heimdall is quite complex
3. In General: The newest .tar (9.34/8.34) as you can't use .zip files
When you want to use Stock Samsung ROM: Version 8
When you want to use CM/AOKP based ROM: Version 9
Remember: No ICS Support!

Ok.
But every aosp rom, like Carbon PA and these are based either in AOKP or CM, isnt it?
The newest one is 9/39, is that the one?

CM & AOKP are actually based on AOSP, so Yes, every AOSP ROM should work.

I agree, the problem results of the ROM: But you have to flash dorimanx after carbon because carbon replaces the current kernel with its own CM custom Kernel. It should work just fine with carbon when it's flashed after installing carbon.
Edited: problem solved. See my last post to the solution I found.
I don't know if it works in Odin cause I haven't tried it, but there is a link somewhere in the Skynote port ROM thread that has the modem as a zip flashable in recovery. It DOES work as I am on MJ9 on Paranoid Android 4.4.2.

Well from "Krowley3's" Sophisticated ROM thread, you can flash it via ODIN with this file: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319198557

No problem. Try flashing it then. I'm sure it should work.
Well I ended up flashing the file...the first time was through TWRP and it didnt change anything. The next time I tried through ODIN and it gave me an "unknown baseband" that a lot of people are reporting. I ended up with no data, had to flash back to stock and start all over again using vramc3.
Numzi, how did you get it working on your phone?

Did the custom rom install a modem or use the existing?

I don't have a SD Card so where am I supposed to put the rom?
I guess full wipe will also delete the rom.

If you don't have a ext Sd card don't try my suggestion! I would only ever advise a full wipe if you have a ext sd card just in case anything goes wrong plus like you said where would you put the rom. I would strongly suggest you getting a ext card no matter how small if you are flashing roms.

Now you have confused me even more! I thought you said in your previous post that you had connection on 4.3 stock rom if so why are you on 4.1.2 ?. Stock rom 4.3 is efs v2 and stock rom 4.1.2 is efs v1 if you have no connection on 4.3 then this is your problem you still have efs v1 which will not work on 4.3 or any of the newer roms please confirm that you have a signal on 4.3 stock rom.

Ok that's good it means you are on v2 efs which is good..I just needed to confirm that you had v2 efs I thought you might have been on 4.1.2 because of no signal.
I must admit this is a strange one because the asop roms,omni roms etc don't change your baseband which can effect your signal.There is one more option you could try use this patched modem >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ck-firmware-i9300xxemg4-t2377731/post43946365 << by JustArchi look at post 15.

Are you sure you are installing the correct version? Have you tried reinstalling the custom rom(s)? I'm pretty sure that the custom roms use the same modems from the stock rom (doesn't install a new one). Is the network settings ok? Is there any signal strength? Please let us know your answers.

Emergency calls only? This seems really strange. Assuming that your sim is still activated, you shouldn't really be experiencing this problem. If you changed the modem to a different one from the original, I would highly advise you to flash back the original modem (since you have changed the modem).
That just dont makes sense, the only explanation to this would be a rom with a broken ril

Honestly I don't know. I never saw such a problem before, I don't know what you are doing wrong because all the kitkat roms for i9100 have a working network for a year I think. Make sure you are following the installation instructions correctly :good:

Well the stock rom you can get from sammobile and flash with odin, talking about kitkat I'm personally using the CyanogenMod 11 M12, network works flawlessly, but I also recommend @Markox89 linaro/sabermod builds because they rock (and have working network haha)
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..

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
