Here is my situation. I cannot make any calls. It sits on dialing then eventually just "hangs up". If someone calls me it goes straight to voice mail like it would do if it was turned off. I often get no network errors also. Data and sms work like normal.
Here is what I have done.
Called Verizon. Got a new sim. No change.
Reflashed back to stock 4.1.1 in Odin. No change.
flashed mj9 radio in Odin. No change.
Rooted and unlocked usually casual. No change.
Flashed alliance 26. No change.
I have cleared data in the phone app in settings.
Mobile network shows as cdma/lte. Access Point is vzwinternet. I have pulled the sim and let it sit for a few minutes. I have pulled the sim and powered on, then powered off and put the sim back in. That is what I have found from searching Google and it doesn't work.
I'm going to call Verizon again. I want them to reset everything associated with my number.
In the meantine, does anyone have any suggestions?

Unlocked bootloader and VRUEMJ9
I am in nearly the same position. I currently have a Service State of "Out of Service" and Mobile network state of "Disconnected". Occasionally it will show connected and I will receive emails. I cannot make or receive calls, I cannot send or receive texts. My phone shows connected to Verizon and LTE, imei showing correctly, as is the serial number. Currently on baseband i605 VRUEMJ9 and recovery is TWRP 2.7.0.0. I have flashed many roms to the phone, but this problem occurred when flashing slimrom 4.4.2. I backed up with Nandroid prior to flashing and when the problem surfaced I tried to restore in TWRP, but it won't correct the problem. I was on CM 10.1.3 prior to trying to move to 4.4.2 and that is what my backup is of(CM10.1.3). Currently I have gone down to Slim rom 4.3 build 2.1 as it seems to be the most stable and results in the most things working. My first question to the community is, I thought i605 VRUEMJ9 baseband had a LOCKED bootloader? How is it that I have custom recovery, have installed at least 3 different roms, etc? I bought the phone 2nd hand and this is the way it came to me. The level of complexity on Note 2 is far and away worse than S3. If anyone has any ideas on what is corrupted(EFS or what) and what my best course of action should be to preserve my unlocked bootloader and root and ability to flash custom roms. Is it possible since my bootloader "appears" to be unlocked that I could flash a different radio(baseband) replacing the problematic VRUEMJ9? Every tutorial on repairing situations like these seem to point you in the direction of going back to 100% stock which isn't something I'm willing to try at this point given I currently have an unlocked bootloader.
I have changed out the sim, spoken to Verizon who have reset everything on the account. I think it's time to replace the phone and sell this one to someone who wants to take it to a MVNO.

For ****s and giggles this weird method fixed texting for several of us that was broke even a Odin the trying everything under the sun. Let me know if some whack chance it works.
Rom: http://www.mediafire.com/download/t4e8a7uzeul79ug/4.4.2_WIP_BUILD_1_BETA.zip
SuperSU 1.93: http://www.mediafire.com/download/uhzx3n6ypkb5xt5/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip
1.) Wipe everything raw
2.) Flash 4.4.2 TW Wip Build 1 and flash SuperSU 1.93
3.) Boot up and try to send a few texts. They will fail everytime as texting is broke in this build (but this is how the magic happens)
4.) Reboot, maybe try and send a few more texts again (again they will fail)
5.) Reboot into recovery and wipe everything raw
6.) Flash latest CM11 or any other AOSP rom
7.) Reboot and Profit!

Ok, if I'm fully unlocked can I replace the radio/baseband? Which one should I switch to? I am not digging having i605 VRUEMJ9 on the phone and I think it would be safer to have one of the better basebands....

No. Verizon said it's a network error. They are sending out a technician to check things in the area. I don't have a lot of faith in that one though. If I put the sim in my wife's phone......I can just swap them back and everything will be normal again right? I don't need to call verizon or anything to do it?

I thought I would give you an update since you are heavy aosp user. I was thinking about how this happened. I installed slim ROM and suddenly I couldn't make calls.
So today I thought I would try an aosp ROM just to give it a shot. I installed slim and magically I could make calls. I have no idea why it worked.
I wonder if slim uses some sort of different coding? I am gonna backup and try a TW ROM to see it that works now too.

Slim is what I flashed. Verizon did say there was a network problem. . Not sure which one it was that fixed it.

I'm having a same issue here.
I got a locked MJ9, and it has terrible signal with all three major carriers (AT&T, VERIZON, TMOBILE).
I upgraded to ND7, and have the same problem.
When the phone goes to sleep, it looks like the antennae goes to sleep as well.
So the phone doesn't even receive the phone calls.
Only when I initiate a phone call once, it starts receiving the call.
Has anyone have success with any particular rom? As you can see, my only options are stock roms since I have locked bootloader.

I was doing a backup of a ROM and when I rebooted I got a sim locked menu, was shocked and had to flash stock GB and unlock again, anybody have experience with this and what triggered this behavior, would love to know as it seems completely random?
If the phone was not originally unlocked properly or unlocked on ics or jellybean with the unlock app, I've heard others say the same thing. If it was unlocked with the app and it was running gingerbread previously when unlocked as well then I dunno that's weird.

If I understand correctly, this is what happens when RIL crashes. Lots of comments about it on i9100 threads, and someone just reported something that entropy thought might be this in the cm10 thread. Up till now apparently it was thought that i777 was immune from this...

I restored my nandroid of Alliance V4 ROM XWLPT and used it for a day and updated apps and some settings and decided to make a newer backup and after was done, reboot and Sim Network Lock menu, was irritated cause I forgot how I did it the first time, thanks to Phalanx7621 commenting in another thread I searched that Galaxy S Unlock app only works on GB and viola, I'm on AOKP 4.1.2 now cause it seems if you re-upload your photos (via Gmail>Contacts on PC) they're in 720x720 resolution now, only works on JB though so that's enough for me to switch, this feature didn't work a month ago so was pleasantly surprised. I think its probably cause I used Lucky Patcher
The same thing happened to me.
I called at&t and got the unlock code because I was going to Chile for a few months. When i entered it I was running stock gingerbread, and uprooted. Rebooted my phone last week and the same thing happened to me. I am glad I had the unlock code saved on Ever note
I've noticed that with every TW based ROM I flash, the LTE connection is horrible, not even reaching over 1MB download. However WiFi is fine, and so is call reception. I've used Internet Speed Master (App found on Google Play) but that seems to do it no justice.
When it comes to any AOSP based ROM the LTE acts completely normal in my area (20Mbps-30 for the Albany area usually).
I have done some searching but haven't found much of an answer and didn't want to bother any Devs with this.
Any help is appreciated

I noticed mine really crawling today. I thought maybe it was a Verizon issue but just for the heck of it I flashed back from the new me7 modem back to mdk. My speeds were right back to normal after reboot. Not sure if it was coincidence or the new modem was causing issues.

Ah I just noticed in my build number the ME7 at the end. I never remembered flashing or ODINing to that modem in the first place. So your saying flashing back to MDK might help out? Sorry I'm bad with the whole Radio/Modem thing.
Sent from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
It's worth a shot. You can always flash back and forth if you need to to test which runs better on your phone.
Your phone must have installed it when you didnt notice. Unfortunately once your phone takes the ota you cant go back to mdk. If you were planning on modifying it all me7 has at the moment is root, no custom recovery. Just a heads up.
Edit:
Or did you flash an me7 based rom?

Yeah I think I had MDK and flashed one of the newer ROMs that had ME7 and didn't notice. I just got everything all set up on RLS8 and would prefer not to have to re-do everything again, so is there a way to find the MDK and either flash it or put through ODIN?
Today for whatever reason my phone decided it didnt lke verizon anymore and decided to jump to USCC. Seriously though. I flashed the latest test build of CM 11. played with it. then wiped data and flashed CM 10.2 and booted. next thing i know it is trying to activate on USCC. So i odined to stock MDK and attempted to get it fixed. There was no help given there. Lady was really nice but still no help. I a trying to figure out what is wrong and get it fixed. Im not sure how in the world this even happened. I do this all the time and never have issues. I am open to all suggestions. Right now i am on stock rooted MJ7 using wifi as i cant even activate the new sim she issued (I keep new ones at home) to activate as it dials USCC for some reason. Any ideas. I did enable the hidden menu if that helps

I did the same thing and now I am stuck in roaming as well. I'm trying to restore a nandroid backup right now to see if that fixes it.
Edit: I restored from a nandroid backup and it still is stuck roaming. Even though it is roaming I have no cellular connection even though I have bars.
Same thing. I am trying to find a fix or a way to wipe the current carrier info. Or manually push the right info

I had CodeFire on my DNA for about a month. All was running well. I just installed whatever was current around 2/23 and never installed a nightly update. Last week, I started having problems texting. I thought the ROM was going belly up on me. So I flashed SlimKat. I still cannot text without cycling Airplane Mode in between each. Alternatively, I can wait about an hour to sent a subsequent test message after a successful one.
I just re-flashed the latest radio hoping that would fix it. I'm at a loss. Do I need to call VZW and have them do something on their end?

The kit kat roms are ported. There are several issues with them that cannot be "fixed" until the source code is released. If the phone does not respond to any commands including trying to boot.... leave it on a factory charger for 24 hours. Then try to work with it

What do you mean by "phone is dead"? Completely non responsive or no signal. I've been on cfx since I ported it over with no issues besides the random signal drop here and there. But that's maybe a few times per week and happens to me on all ROMs. What do you wipe when flashing a new ROM? Have you tried a RUU?

Dead as in Roaming again. My apologies for the exaggeration. I'm a bit frustrated here. I cannot seem to win with this thing. I hated my Thunderbolt at the end, but at least it worked. RUU brings back mobile data and texting. I've tried CM 10.2 several times. Each time, it gets stuck in roaming. I cannot change the NV setting. Changing it, then checking it again and it's right back. I've tried flashing with the SIM in. With it out. I've cycled Airplane mode a few times. Rebooted. Installed GApps. Rebooted. Cycled Airplane mode. I'm missing something. Apparently.
I just want a phone without Sense or the Verizon crap. CFX was awesome until this texting issue.

Have you considered hardware issues? If it was a ROM issue it wouldn't be a one person issue. Or provide a log of what's happening when you send SMS. You're just not giving us much to go by, except what's not working. Are you doing full wipes between flashing roms, or just cache or factory resets?

Full Wipes between flashes.
I've had this phone for about two months. I initially had issues flashing CM and being stuck in roaming. No CM ROM I attempt to flash will work. They always end up stuck in roaming. I think the problem is that I can't switch from NV. When I change it, it always goes right back. Not sure what's up there.
I just flashed ★ ☆ [ROM/RADIO][4.2.2] Stock 3.06.605.4 | Rooted | Odex-Deodex | Sense5 And now SMS works, but I'm stuck in 3G.
I hadn't considered hardware only because with each ROM, the previously broken feature works, but then something new pops up.
With one, I can text, but am in 3G. With another, I've got 4G but can't text without cycling Airplane mode.
I sincerely apologies for coming off as a d!ck. I've nothing to contribute to the community but my bug reports and money. It's frustrating to see how quickly some phones are abandoned, though.
I've always been thankful for everyone's help and tried to offer bug reports and donations where applicable.
I just want my phone to work, with a plain vanilla OS and tethering. I don't need Sense. I don't need fancy mods. Just a phone that works.
Please accept my apology, and thanks again for the help.

I think the problem is that I can't switch from NV. When I change it, it always goes right back. Not sure what's up there.
I just flashed ★ ☆ [ROM/RADIO][4.2.2] Stock 3.06.605.4 | Rooted | Odex-Deodex | Sense5 And now SMS works, but I'm stuck in 3G.
I hadn't considered hardware only because with each ROM, the previously broken feature works, but then something new pops up.
With one, I can text, but am in 3G. With another, I've got 4G but can't text without cycling Airplane mode.
I sincerely apologies for coming off as a d!ck. I've nothing to contribute to the community but my bug reports and money. It's frustrating to see how quickly some phones are abandoned, though.
I've always been thankful for everyone's help and tried to offer bug reports and donations where applicable.
I just want my phone to work, with a plain vanilla OS and tethering. I don't need Sense. I don't need fancy mods. Just a phone that works.
Please accept my apology, and thanks again for the help.

Have you considered the fact that the recovery itself is causing your issues? I would give TWRP a try to see if there are differences. TWRP is a must to flash KitKat roms and the version used is critical.

Nope. I didn't consider that. Because most of my problems were with CM 10.2.1. Which is JB, correct?
That being said, I've tried both CW and TWRP to no avail. After being stuck in 3G for two days across multiple ROMs, I'm convinced the hardware went belly-up.
New SIM?
HTC DNA
LG Optimus G

Santod has a process to recover the unit from the conditions you describe. It is fairly simple and doesn't appear to require much time.
I don't have time to search for it at the moment.

I did lots of searching before asking. I try to do my due diligence before bothering you all.
The replacement phone did not resolve the problem. The replacement SIM did.
Now on to bigger and better things. Thanks for putting up with me.
And now I can't text without cycling Airplane mode again.

Are you certain it was Santod? He's only got 19 posts on this board and I don't see anything directly related to the SMS problem I'm having.

Since my last update, I've received a new DNA, and a new SIM card.
Check out the last few posts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51465109
This is bizarre. Either I'm doing something wrong, or... I don't know. SMS works on a stock ROM but not on a custom ROM, with a new phone, with a new SIM.
I think you are doing something wrong.
RUU the latest firmware, factory reset, wipe data, cache, and system, install a ROM and DO NOT restore anything.
I think youre not completely wiping and/or are restoring things.
Tons of drop calls after flashing to NAB. Then i tried Carbon Nightlies but did not use long enough to know if it has the same problem. Then have been on SACS kk ever since. It happens consistently with the Official NAB and SACS.
I do want to add that after deciding that I wanted to go back to 4.3, I attempted to flash back, several attempts, and several methods. I don't remember exactly what I flashed (months ago). I am beginning to second guess whether I might have flashed the wrong thing, maybe wrong radio or something.
If I post shots of my aboutPhone details, is it possible to identify what might be potentially causing this?
From my understanding you can not go back to 4.3 after flashing to NAB. It is odd that you are having these issues because I am running sacs and s5 port and I'm not having any issues what so ever. Post your about phone. Maybe someone can see from that. Gotta start somewhere.

Yeah, shortly after I found out that it was irreversible. Here is AboutDevice.
Does anything look out of place?
my phone is also dropping calls now that im on NC5 kitkat. What gives? I know sprint is notorious for this kind of spotty service but c'mon, really?
Not saying sprint is the greatest, but maybe it's service upgrades in your area?
thats what they want you to think.. but really the "network vision upgrades" are already done in my area.
Im on the debloaded NC5 stockish rom. The problem started on stock

For comparison purposes try odining back to stock NC5 if problems persist try wipping data/factory reset in stock recovery and see if that helps? I am on NAB and I have no issues?

sorry, i should have mentioned that I was originally on stock NC5 (rooted) when the issue started. since then I began to care less. The droped calls started happening 3 days ago. I started flashing roms on to my phone yesterday lol

You can always try to use older Basebands/Modems. Some users have reported that the MJ4 or NAB basebands work better in their area than the NC5 ones.
You need to first install the Engineering Bootloader. Then you can use ODIN to flash the desired Baseband.
I'm o KitKat Killer 4 NC5 and only get about 2 dropped calls a day.. I'm willing to bet this is a tower issue, rather than a software issue..

Thanks for the tip. Is it ok to use the MJ4 baseband while on NC5? I do want to try it since thats what the phone was shipped with and it worked fine out of the box for 2 days lol.
It's funny, I used to drop calls all the time in the same area. After the update I don't drop calls in that area, but now in 2 other areas every time, it's like clockwork. Usually when 4g signal is really low, amybe it's when it tries to switch to 3g it looses the call. IDK, my S4 never dropped calls and I travel the same routes to and from work.

As long as you flash the engineering boot loader as was mentioned, then yes.
