First SMS works... the rest fail? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

So I had CM 10.2 running on my VZW S4 and it worked fine until today... all of the sudden it would not send SMS messages. If I reboot it it will send one and then no more until I reboot again.
I tried clearing the app data... then wiping the data on the phone... and even installing CM 11... still does the same thing?
Ideas?

I suggest reading through the thread I linked. You aren't alone with that issue.

It's believed to be a problem deep in CM's code, and recent network changes may have surfaced the issue but only with CM. I don't think TW has this issue.

Small issue with CM 10.1 on my Galaxy S3 (T-Mo)

Ive been noticing a small issue with CM 10.1 on my GS3.
Also before anyone berates me on the fact that it's a nightly and there's not a stable build yet, I know this and it's not needed.
My home button seems to always open up my recent apps and not going home.
Wanted to know if anyone has had this issue or know of a fix for it.

Known issue, I have it as well. Not sure if/when it will be fixed. Only workaround I know of is to reboot. It will happen again later, not exactly sure what the cause is though.

Noticed an interesting thing the last time my phone glitched like this.
I was trying to send someone a picture when the phone's home button started acting funny. So i said screw it and decide to hop into Quick pic and and The pictures would not open.. It just checked them as if i was going to mass edit

imei issue only on 4.4

I can DL a 4.1-4.3 ROM and data is fine. I tried two 4.4 ROM (slim and pa) and same exact issue. No data and using the *#*#4635#*#* menu it says unknown imei. But soon as I put a lower ROM its fine. What can be happening? Tried rewiping and reinstalling and redownloading and still issues.
Anyone.... anyone? I love kit kat on my s4 and would love it on my note
Use cwm like each of those op's states. Issue solved

Got the imei fixed but only get LTE now. Can't call or text. I've went back to stock and wiped everything and tried reinstalling but keep running into issues. Never had problems Like this before. Frustrating.

[Q] I figured out WiFi is causing my Screen of Death issue. Now what?

So I realized WiFi is causing my Screen of Death issue on EVERY KitKat ROM, and only KitKat ROM's. So what is my next step? Does anyone have a fix on this or anything? It'll either Screen of Death my phone or my data won't work until I turn off WiFi and then I can't turn it back on. Any help would be appreciated guys. I'm desperate now. 15 battery pulls a day are just ridiculous.
Why did you make a new thread? :what:
Anyways...I'm in the same boat as you. Take a few screenshots of your app drawer so I can see if we are using any of the same apps, it's possible one of them are the problem.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
Well OP isn't very active, so I thought I'd get a logcat. I was connected to WiFi until I noticed it wasn't receiving any data (but still showed connected to WiFi). I turned the screen off and then it would not come back on anymore, but the phone was still responsive. I could turn torch on and off and even took a screenshot, but the screen still refused to come on. I'm guessing that whatever is happening, usually does so while the screen is off, and that's why I get a BSOD.
I'd like to add I've tried a bunch of different modems, clean flashed CM11, even restored no apps...yet the problem persists.
I've attached it to this post, if anyone has time to check it out I would be very grateful.

So I screenshot my drawer but don't have access to a computer till tomorrow. So I'll send em over. But yeah I just made a new thread because I wasnt getting any answers on the other when I discovered that WiFi was the issue.
I'm just so frustrated with my phone because I can not figure out a fix. At first I installed a clean kitkat ROM with full wipe, and didn't restore apps to see if it was an app but it still did it. Then I even completely unrooted my phone and rerooted, still did it.

That's alright, if it also did it for you without restoring any apps, its gotta be something else. But what... I have no idea.
It seems that WiFi is crashing while the screen is off and that is resulting in a BSOD. Why the hell is it crashing though... :banghead:

Yeah. I'll notice my WiFi is no longer sending data so I'll turn it off then it won't turn on. Or I'll try to turn it off and it won't then I know that if I lock my screen it won't turn on without a battery pull.
I'm not sure where to go from here if nobody can decipher that logcat.
All I can think of is to back up my SD card and completely format the phone.. then see if it persists.

So I just odined the stock MDK image, wiping everything. The only thing I copied back over was my pictures. Flashed back to KitKat and it STILL happens. WTF. This is beyond aggravating.

Okay I hate to speak too soon. But I MAY have found a temporary fix. I noticed that the screen only freezes and shuts off on the lock screen. Never any other time. So I turned off the android lock screen and put up widget locker instead (set up exactly the same way) so far it hasn't happened. Here's hoping I'm not jynxing myself though!
Never mind. I did speak to soon...ugh we need to find a fix for this and soon. Is it only on the vzw gs4?

I've googled and don't see any mention of WiFi causing a bsod.
I'm gonna test my next theory, not let Google restore anything from my Google account. That's the only other thing that is being restored.

Yeah I tried that a while back too. I've tried everything I could possible think of. I had to go back to CM10.2 because I just couldn't stand doing a battery pull 10 times a day, killing my battery.
Anyone have any luck with a fix yet?

That's what's confusing me so much. I know its WiFi but its only on kitkat ROMs. That means that the WiFi antennas must have changed on 4.4 right?

So if u have WiFi toggled off during the day you don't have this problem at all?? I'm not really sure myself if anything with wifi has changed in 4.4
How many different kit kat ROMs have you tried? And you said you're in the latest modem?

Yeah, it never happens when Wifi is off. I've tried it on CM11, OmniRom, Jelly Beans, PA, Gummy Rom, and I think one other. And what is modem again?

The modem (baseband) is something you can flash in recovery..
It controls the cells hardware that communicates with the actual cell towers.
That isn't going to mess with your WiFi though.. How about kernels have you tried another one maybe KToonsez ?

Data and WiFi problems on KitKat roms

I have been on several KitKat ROMs and have the same problems with all of them. I am not able to connect to any WiFi network. I can see them but when try to connect it just goes to saved ...or out of range. Also I have to constantly turn airplane mode on and off because I lose data. I have signal but can't connect. I did see this mentioned somewhere but can't remember where. I have started from scratch and it does seem to affect only KitKat ROMs. Does anyone else have a this problem. Currently on paranoid but I was on beanstalk before.

You tried CM11?
No...but aren't the others based on CM? I know someone said KitKat doesn't play nice with some routers. But shouldn't it connect to something? I can't think of the Evo 4g LTE ROM thread where the op mentioned toggling airplane mode. But I think something about the RIL was mentioned.

All except Omni. But sometimes the CM ROMs posted on the forum have some fixes that might not have made it to the other builds.
I assume you're on the new partition layout?
Yes I am. I will try to install cm or omni. I know these problems were mentioned by other users here with no clear answer. Last post on the carbon thread the user asked if the update fixed the data issues. I might have to go back to sense. When I get data back, my pebble blows up to catch all the missed notifications.

The RIL problem was mentioned in the Omni ROM thread, in the op.

CM recently merged Qualcomm RIL which might address some of the data issues. Thus my suggestion to try CM .
Thanks I will..

FWIW the only KitKat Rom that gave me reliable data was the latest Dirty Unicorn release. I started having some issues with random freezes/reboots so I switched to the Capt's newest 4.3 update, but DU was the only 4.4 Rom that worked for me data-wise. Don't know if you tried it already or not, but wanted to mention it just in case.
It seems omni works great data wise. But no KK ROM has reliable WiFi for me. Thanks for the reply. I may try dirty unicorn.

Did you try CM?
(specifically the latest one on the new layout, as there were updates to the WiFi code)
P.S. That's why I suggested it in the first place.

I used to have the WiFi connection problems too, earlier on in KitKat development. Since updating to the new partition, I have not encountered it on any ROMs I've flashed.

No I haven't tried cm yet. I will soon. I am out of town and having to download ROMs over 3G. I installed the roms that actually finished downloading. I will try CM tonight when I get home.

My girl's phone is doing the same " not in range" thing to. She's stock rooted 4.3. But it's been happening since 4.1. We thought the update would fix it, but nope. So that makes me wonder if it's some kind hardware malfunction.

Very well could be a hardware issue, especially since the problem has persisted throughout the latest update.

The part I really don't understand is, if it's a problem with her WiFi antenna...why are surrounding networks showing up when she turns her WiFi on? They show up and when she connects, they come up as "not in range". I actually think this same problem is affecting her ability to tether.

LTE Connectivity?
Has anyone been able to have LTE connectivity with a kitkat rom? If yes, which one? I've tried DU 4.4, the screen it showed "LTE", but there was no connectivity with the data.
Has anyone determined where the APNS file is located on the stock sense ROM? One idea suggested is to try to copy the stock APNS file, and copy to the KitKat rom, I've tried to use some APN backup programs, but they do not seem to function properly in the Sense environment.

I've been running the latest PAC Rom builds (old partitions still, haven't taken the time to update to the new) for about a week or so and haven't had any LTE issues. It still has the roaming bug (says roaming but it's not), but connecting to LTE and pulling down 15+ Mbps here in Chicagoland.
Not all of the nightlies would boot for me, but I've had success with the 3/5 and the 3/10. Worth checking out, not too different than DU when you download the Google Now Launcher, just missing Halo.
just wanted to say, I've been running a CM11 nightly for about a month now [2/11/14 I believe], and I've had wifi issues, probably about 3 times. The issue was it wouldn't connect to wifi at all, it would either show no networks in range or not connect when I tell it to.
A simple reboot fixed the issue for me though, that's why I haven't bothered to update my ROM yet [I will, if there is a milestone or stable release, otherwise I might stick with this nightly for some months--just because I hate to restore all my apps and settings, quite bothersome and I don't have the time anymore to mess with that kind of stuff as I used to]. edit: wait I ust remembered that someone told me you can dirty flash nightlies. can anybody tell me if dirty flashing a recent nightly over a month+ old rom is alright? or will it cause issues? from what I remember, if the build number is the same [e.x. 4.4.2] then it will probably be fine [unless stated you cannot dirty flash in the changelog, but I don't have time to read all 30+ changelogs]
gl trying to figure the issue out though!

Yea skynote is a att port so there might be some bugs that will cause that.. great guys over there though..always make sure you backup your efs and modem.. If you don't get back service you can flash MJ9 firmware (Here) with the tz, param, and modem will solve the issue..
Make sure you thank the OP too:good:
