I have been out of the loop for a while. I recently updated from 4.3.1 to 4.4.4 AOKP KK... It seams to run smooth... But I noticed the baseband is still VRALJB. Should that be updated? I have has a couple instances where I've had to go into airplane mode and back out just to send a text message. Possible issue with radio?

I'm testing I605VRUFND7 radio now....
Guess I should research first...
I flashed the ND7 zip I found in one of these rom threads via TWRP and all is working great.

I am on MDK with Twrp and when I attempt to use a TW 4.3 ROM the phones dialer will not work. I atempt to make or receive a call and the phone will go black and become unresponsive. After the call fails the phone will fiction properly. I still have data and SMS messaging works. I have done clean installs with formating the internal memory. When I flash to a 4.3 asop ROM everything works. Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

This is the only 4.3 TW rom available for verizon phones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2517611 It works fine. If you trying to flash International Roms use my patch it works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518264

Thank you for your quick response. The first link you posted was the last ROM I had tried. Before posting, I have also tried multiple international roms using your first patch plus your updated patch for heavy themed roms. The only thing i have not tried to flash is diffrent modems. Is there an easy way I can tell what modem I am on?

You need to download latest version of rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2517611 there is no need to flash any fixes now they are all built in do a full wipe/factory reset then go to advance wipe and wipe system,cache,data then install zip
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
Thanks for letting me know its working for you on PA.

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?
I'm running the new firmware with CM11. I flashed it in cwm and it works fine

For anyone reading this thread and had trouble like me with the modem, try flashing this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48640/android/VRUEMJ9_zif.zip
I flashed it using latest twrp on slim rom/slimkat 4.4.2, and it worked perfectly.

Okay so I've had the issue with sms on non sense 5 based roms before . I took the its to give it a shot and see if the new radio/firmware base would help. I'm still s-off, unlocked, supercid and have twrp. If I try and install any custom Rom it'll start then crash and say failed to write metadata. Is that due to it being the 4.4.2 firmware? And should I go back to 4.2.2 and try the New radio to see if sms works? Just curious cause I'd like to keep the 4.4.2 base if possible just wondering if anyone has had roms work

That error is due to using an old recovery that is not compatible with kitkat based rom installer scripts.
Update your recovery...
Okay I'm using the newest twrp beta right now.
So never mind. I must have not payed any attention when I reflashed recovery I put 2.6 not 2.7. Thank you though

Haha of course not. Lol I wish we had a way to get it to work
Does anyone have an idea. I'd love to run viper 3.5 it ran amazing and save with the nusense roms. But no sms I can't do

No. If you currently have that issue (like I do) updating to 4.09 does not fix it. At least for the Sense 6 rom I tested after updating. I haven't tested any of the custom 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 roms yet.
Yeah same here. I'm gonna try 5.5 ones today and report back
I am running stock 4.3 from here.
Before that I was trying out stock 4.4.2 from here.
4.3 seems to be running well but I still have the ND7 radio. I know this shouldn't necessarily be a problem, but I would like to try the MJ9 radio and see if my battery life improves.
To downgrade the radio from ND7 to MJ9, is it simply a matter of flashing VRUEMJ9_radio.zip in recovery?
Or are there any other additional steps I should take, such as "format /modem" or something similiar in Philz?
I would appreciate any input on this.
Rootabaga, I can't help you with your situation however am having an issue with my signal being intermittent,especially when I set up a hot spot. Could someone tell me what's a better radio to use than MJ9 or is there a better means to fix this issue...?
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks

Yes just flash the zip in twrp or CWM. FYI your battery life isn't going to get better by doing this.

In my experience, only way to go from ND7 baseband to MJ9 baseband is to flash the MJ9 firmware( rooted/unlocked) using ODIN. Trying flash the MJ9 baseband zip in recovery did not work for me.

Thanks for replying. You're probably right about the battery life. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part. Now that I've had ND7 for a few weeks, battery life seems to be more like it used to be.

Thanks. I already flashed the MJ9 firmware when I first went from 4.1.2 to 4.4.2. Are you saying I would need to flash the firmware again?
The main reason I now want to try it is because browsing the net on any browser over WIFI has gotten almost impossible with ND7. 4G is fine. I'm not sure if it is because of ND7 but I thought it might be worth a try.
Okay so I recently decided to to upgrade to the 4.4.2 KitKat root through this video http://youtu.be/AIRoQKTLeJQ and I was running the stock deodexed rom that was provided. I then looked up some compatible custom roms and came across several that were supposedly compatible with NC5 and Safestrap 3.72. However, on most of them (Echoe Rom, Bajarom, Phoenix Rom, etc) the wifi does not turn on even after rebooting. Bajarom it would work (it would take FOREVER to turn on though) until after I restored my nandroid backup (just data) from before I upgraded to 4.4.2 via the video. Then the wifi function would stop... Echoe Rom and Phoenix Rom both had a Galaxy S5 port that had S5 apps, themes, etc. These ones wouldn't have any network access at all. WiFi and 4G would not work. I would still have a signal so I could send texts and call people. I tried flashing modules and modems and NC5 fixes but nothing would work... Does anybody know how to fix this WiFi problem?? Or does anybody know of a good, clean, custom TouchWiz rom that has working wifi? This would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Did you flash modules after rom? That's the only way your wifi is going to work.
Check out giglies NC2 wifi fix and see if that helps: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23487008491963696
Yea I tried the modules and they didn't help. But thanks! I'll give this a shot.

Is it safe to flash a custom rom like CM11? I upgraded my phone to 4.4.2 NC5 through ODIN, then did the Towel root and flashed Safestrap.
I dont think so.

Yea. I was going to reflash it to get back the stock kernel. I just got the phone so I didnt have much info to lose and I was in a rush and could't find a solution in the kernel thread. I see people asking about losing wifi, but no one posts any solutions.

Modules Needed??
Does anybody have any idea how I would flash Echoe Rom with the S5 port to my phone with Safestrap 3.72. I have the NC5 bootloader and I'm wondering what modules I need to flash in order to have working wifi AND data/calling/service. When I flash Echoe Rom my baseband version changes to NC2... Does this change the modules I need to flash? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

You could try flashing that wifi fix, which will set your modem as NC2. Then flash the NC5 modem and you'll have the NC5 baseband and working wifi (this is what I do for Hyperdrive).
