[Q] Custom ROM problems in Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100P - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using SGS2 GT-I9100P variant. I flashed CM11 in mobile. But it was for GT-I9100. I had network problems with all custom ROMs i tried to flash. It was like it recognizes my sim but there is no network. Is there any solution of my problem? Please help me out. I can assure that its not a hardware problem cause it runs fine on stock ROM. Is there any solution??

Have you unlocked your handset?

Check to see if the baseband has a number and the IMEI is correct as well.

Flashing back region specific modem

Hello,
My S2 originally came with Android 2.3.4. I then decided to root and switch to a custom ROM. I'm currently running Hydra-H2O Rom, AOKP, and I noticed my baseband is not the same as it was anymore (originally phone: I9100UHKG4). Now, after upgrading, I noticed that sometimes my data connection would drop, and the carrier menu that comes with the sim chip (Sim Toolkit) stopped working (i can access it, but it wont communicate).
So, I guess my question is, can I flash the modem part of the original GB stock rom and will that fix my issues?
Thanks for your help
Yeah, you get the actual modem file and either use Odin or ClockwordMod recovery to do it.

Thank you bro, although the modem for my region/carrier does not appear on any of the links listed in your post. It didn't matter because I already extracted it from the original stock rom downloaded directly from Samsung.
I am currently running baseband UHKG4 with no problem, however it did not fix my issue with the Sim Toolkit menu. I still cant use any of the options on it. Maybe it is a chip problem, go figure

useful info.
so, this means that even though people say the models i9100 and i9100m are hardware identical, in fact they are not. the proof would be that the i9100's modem corresponding to a region, for example to europe (with LS6 and LS8 supposed to work) does not work with i9100m designed for canada (here, MUGL3 and XXLQ6 are appropriate).
Don't worry, sometimes it doesn't even work for I9100.

That's bs.
Read my signature.
Mugl3 modem is out performed by ld8 modem on my phone. Location does not dictate model. The i9100 is the i9100, whether you purchase in Canada (the 'M' suffix) or elsewhere.
You choose the modem that works best for you and your phone. Period.
Don't be twisting words around to suit your theories.

[Q] no service on Thunderbolt Jelly Bean ROM for Galaxy S2 i9100!

Please help!
no service when flashed to Thunderbolt Jelly Bean ROM for Galaxy S2 i9100. Dream kernel
IMEI is good.
no service and no signal + a message when trying to set APN "unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped"
re installed with different kernel -- did not work.--
installed different JB rom -- did not work.--
wiped data, cache, etc... ---did not work ----
It's your first post, and you have no details in your profile that might give a clue as to where you are located and who your carrier is.
What is your exact device model? Look on the label under the battery.
What exact ROM did you attempt to flash? A link would be helpful.
My initial impression is that you flashed an i9100 ROM to a device that is NOT actually an i9100.

No links... But your phone otherwise works, so I guess you used ROMs for your model.
As jokesy said, try other modems.

1. Download any modem of your choice here ( I recommend BVLP7 or XXLPX)
2. Copy the modem.zip to your phone
3.
- Boot to CWM recovery
- Flash Zip from SDcard
- Flash the modem.zip (you just downloaded)
- Reboot phone.
Done
thankz for the help
Thankz for the feed back, I tried both modems, did not work. probable it has to do with com.android.phone always crashes when I go to APN options, I dont know Im a noob hear.

I'll advise you to flash a custom stock based ICS ROM, with full wipe and test if the problem still persists.
Don't forget to go a Nandroid backup before flashing the new ROM.

download neatrom lite 4.7.zip and format data/system/preload/cache partitions in recovery. and flash the neatrom zip from recovery and reboot. it includes modem, kernel and rom.
http://d-h.st/UIK here is the link.
my two cents

Hi Fractrox,
Did you do a factory reset after flashing CM rom? If yes, try adding the APNs again under
Settings-> More-> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names, followed by a reboot.
For downgrading , you can find stock rom from sammobile for s2. The latest released is 4.1.2.
Check your location and flash the one for your country so that you get the correct modem file which will help fixing the 3G connection issues.
Hope it helps.
Cheers,
Maddy
i was going to say flash a stock rom via odin, but he said he has had no luck with odin?
and he says he is running cm10.1 already so i know he has cwm, thats why i said neatrom lite...as its less bloated and is rooted, with philz kernel etc,

i have downgraded from cm10.1 to neatrom many times.
good luck.
just remember to format system/preload/cache and data..and then flash neatrom lite from your sd card. let me know if you need any more help.
i'll be on xda for about another hour, then i have to go.
Didn't work. I downgraded but there was no 3G or ROM only kernel. and why does 3G works with stock ROM as the other guy said?

Slow network speed on 4.3. Any ideas?

Hi everyone. I've installed last week hawkish rom. The rom is great, but I have a problem regarding the slow network speed. Even if I'm on 3g or 2g I'm always downloading with 60-90 KB/s. Is it because of the modem or of the kernel? I'm on Orange Romania. Thanks.
I had the same problem before. I flashed the 4.1.2 baseband. Now the network works fine and fast.

i suggest you flash 4.1 Rom first . something to do with EFS partition. EFS1 and EFS2 somethinfg like that. i think thats what causing this problem.
if possible flash 4.1 ROM first and then flash 4.3
