[Q] Issues with radio firmware

Hi,
I have an issue with the radio of my phone. When I switch to 3G, I get a weak signal varying between one and a max of 3 bars. The phone gets heated up and the battery starts draining. Please find below the device and OS that I am using
Device: Samsung Galaxy S2
OS: CM M12
Base band: I9100DDLP8
Location: Bangalore, India
I have inserted my Sim in a different phone and have found that nothing is wrong with the connectivity in the area. I have no issues when I switch to 2G. I have tried flashing various modems and RILs but in vain. I have also tried using the Getril app to correct the issue but without much success.
Here is what I have tried and noticed
1) Flashed the modem DDLS9 and DDLPB. The 3G signal strength is good when I flashed these modems but I am unable to make or receive calls. I have flashed the RIL along with the modem.
2) On trying the modems XXLS6, XXLS8, XXLS9 and XXKH3, nothing has changed and I still got the weak 3G signal though am able to make and receive calls.
I have also tried flashing a stock rom (Jelly bean) but the issue was still there.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance
As you have tried all the radios for the location already, I am not going to suggest you to do that.
However, I am interested in knowing when did the phone start showing signs of weak 3g signal? Did it happen one day suddenly or did you make any changes to software/hardware which might have triggered it?

It started happening after I switched to Cyanogenmod 11 M1. I was under an impression that the issue is with the connectivity until I tried my sim card on a different phone.
I will suggest you to flash the stock ROM or some other ROM.

Tried installing the stock rom but it didn't work.
Number one thing I also say about modems and rils, never use getril. Are you trying to flash jelly bean stock rom? If you haven't yet, try flashing it as it will also flash the stock modem too. If yes, try finding older versions of the compatible baseband firmware (or modem) and try flashing it. (Yes, you can flash older modems that originated from ics or jellybean).

[Q][SOLVED] No data network after CM 12.1

Hi.
EDIT: My phone is a GT-I9300 bought in Denmark (So I guess International).
So yesterday I installed this custom rom from Android 4.3 to Unofficial Cyanogenmod 12.1 (Here is the article: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/5-1-x-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3066864). I got it installed with no problems but then I discovered that I had no 3G (data connection). My IMEI and APN was fine and it could recognize my carrier (Telenor Denmark). I tried installing more than 5 different flashed modems but with no luck. So, today I installed the stock Android 4.1.2 official ROM and the 3G was working perfectly again. I then tried installing CM 12.1 again, but the same error occurred. I have no problems making calls and sending text messages, and WIFI works too.
Could someone lead me in the right direction to solving this error?
Thank you in advance.

If you had official 4.3 in the beginning there is no way you can get a signal or 3g if you go back 4.1.2 except somewhere in the past you restored your old 4.1.2 efs backup. If you have signal in 4.1.2 this means you still have efs v1. Since cm12 doesnt change your efs or modem you may still have network. Your 3g problem may be efs v1. Install official 4.3 first and update your efs to v2 then install a clean cm12 and try again.

Hi. Thanks for your answer.
I know this is a stupid question, but how do I update my EFS?
Thank you.
Andreas.
If you install official 4.3 through odin, it will update automaticly.

Okay but then I don't really understand because I have already updated once to 4.3 OTA (or via Kies maybe) before I began installing custom roms. Shouldn't that be the same as using Odin?
Best regards.
Andreas.
I never updated via ota or kies before and never even used kies before (no needed). Also I use my s3 rooted since day one. So maybe (i say maybe because i really dont know) ota updates might keep your efs unupdated. (Since it is an update not the whole package).
Download an official 4.3 from sammobile.com and try and see. (Nothing to lose anyway)

And also these are the cleaning scripts for s3. They will wipe clean your entire phone even the system and any kernel leftovers. Use them before installing any custom roms because cm and sammy roms are completly different roms and any leftovers can make problems to your system..
@AndreasX12: Failing 3g-access has nothing to do with IMEI/efs-issues, but may be a CM-issue. So, if you've still your correct IMEI and network access with 4.3-firmware, (backup your efs-data and the whole system and) try simply another AOSP-ROM, Omni or Euphoria fe.
Recommended updating path from stock 4.3 leads through 10.2, 11 and ad last 12.1.
If you have stock 4.3 download stable cm10.2 and flash it through recovery twice and reboot. You can skip cm11 than and flash cm 12 or cm12.1.
Cm10.2 is the first one cyanogenmod which change partition layout a bit.
Converting between efs 1 and efs 2 is possible and recommended on stock firmwares by flashing corresponding modem version by Odin. It also have place while flashing whole rom through Kies, Odin or Heimdall.
To omit future 3g errors flash roms without sim card onboard.

Thank you all for your answers.
Special thanks to rp158. I have installed OmniROM instead so it was a problem with the CM12.1 unofficial build.
Best regards,

Updated to 4.3 EFS went from v1 to v2 and can't get signal on custom roms

Hello!
Phone Gt-i9300
So i was happily using omnirom for 1 year until my motherboard died last week
so i ordered a new board. i installed it, it was on 4.1.2 unlocked, and i decided to update it without making a efs backup! so dumb!
So i installed a 4.3 Stock ROM, no signal so i had to install
-Patched XXUFMJ9 kernel
- Patched BUUGMJ3 modem
So i can use my phone with no problems in STOCK....
BUT. I hate STOCK..
I have tried to flash omniroom 4.4.4, but it says unknown baseband, uknown imei.. i tried installing omniroom and then installed again the patched modem buugmj3 and ofcourse nothing happened...
So.. my question is.. Am I forced to stick with this TouchWiz Rom? or is there any way for me to do something to get omniroom detecting my signal?
Oh something i was forgeting.. before i updated to stock 4.3... i installed first omniroom.. but i decided to update to stock 4.3 because i was getting signal but it could take 1 HOUR for the phone to get the signal.. and from there signal would lose at any moment.
anyone? i read the FAQ and did this
Q9: I'm sure I've correctly flashed an SGSIII ROM with the right CSC for my network but why can I still not make calls?
If your phone was running an Android version less than v4.3 before you flashed a new ROM then you may need to install a patched modem and, if you upgraded to a newer stock ROM, a patched kernel too such as the zuluman modem FW/kernel. You will usually not need to install a patched kernel if you install CyanogenMod or a CM-based ROM. A number of kernels and modem firmwares patched for Android 4.3+ are available here.
