I didn't even flash the whole stock ROM, I just flashed the modem via odin and voila....
in your case, what are the symptoms? tell me your IMEI and baseband...

What insecure and secure kernels did you flash? And where did you get them from?
My guess is you flashed kernels either not meant for your device, or you flashed a Gingerbread kernel on an ICS firmware, or vice versa.
In any case, you need to include more info. What build are you on? What did you flash?
I got the kernel from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671
GT-I9100P_BVKI2_original
that is the one i downloaded.
can i just re flash the stock rom will that solve the problem?
if so does anyone have the link for the i9100p orange stock rom?

if i download this rom and flash via odin will it solve my problem?

Well, that is a Gingerbread kernel. However, not knowing what your actual firmware version is, I can't say why it failed. Maybe you were on ICS? Or if you were on Gingerbread, the firmware version was too disparate from the kernel version.

Yeah, it should. Until you try to root again. If you flash that firmware, do NOT try to root using the same insecure kernel you did before.
Once i have flashed it back to stock is there a solid way to root ics particularly that rom?

great thanks flashing stock rom worked!!!!!

Still that annoying error 7?

Ok, I am lost, I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I tried to install the latest XXDLI8 leak, and I am met with error 7 in CWM.
I even downloaded and flashed the needed PDA from sammobile (which is XXBLG8_XABLG8_XXLH1) but I still get error 7? The assert check fails on PreloadInstaller
What's the deal?
Did you flash root and the modem? LH1 IIRC?

I flashed Cf-root, yes, but it doesn't interfere with what the assert checks check, and I need not flash the LH1 modem since it's already in the firmware I flashed with ODIN.
I flashed i9300XXBLG8 i9300XABLG8 i9300XXLH1, which was listed as the needed PDA to flash the XXDLI8 OTA.

you need to flash this one: I9300XXBLG8_I9300OXABLG8_I9300XXLG8_HOME.tar
and then the lh1 modem separatly or you will get the error 7.

Then why did Sammobile themselves link to I9300XXBLG8_I9300OXABLG8_I9300XXLH1 as the needed PDA?
Don't know why. But had the same problem. Error 7 seems to be an file checksum problem and separte flashing solves it.

Root is not really required to flash the OTA. However the Rom and the modem need to be flashed separately.

Sammobile are linking to http://www.hotfile.com/dl/170853923/e311e2f/I9300XXBLG8_I9300OXABLG8_BTU.zip.html which still needs the LH1 modem flashed after the ROM flash.
It does work, but you have to flash the modem or you get the 7 error. As above the root steps are not needed, until after the OTA anyway.

The only reason I flash cf-root directly after odin'ing the stock ROM is to get CWM so I can flash the OTA.

Well I downloaded it and it seems like it's the "legit" LG8 one so I'll go with it.
Damnit, even more problems. I downloaded and flashed the correct LG8, then I cf-rooted, and installed the LH1 modem and when I finally was supposed to install the OTA, the assert check failed on /system/SW_configuration.xml and threw me an error 7.

So you odin flashed the base rom
then odin flashed cf-root
boot into cwm and flash LH1 and OTA (no reboot between) and error 7?
Weird. Something wrong with one of those files.

Pls dont root until fully cooked. Here are my steps.
Do factory reset before flashing
Flash stock BLG8 rom through odin and restart.
On the startup screen where you choose the lang, dont proceed further. Just restrart in the download mode again.
Flash the LH1 modem through odin and restart and again on the startup screen restart the phone in recovery mode. Do factory reset and chose the OTA file flash through recovery. Let the upgarde complete. Dont reboot, just do factory reset again and enjoy the leak.
You may root now if required.

I initially had the exact same problem .. so I downloaded the I9300BLG8 base Rom again , but the one without the LH1 modem built in and then flashed LH1 modem after flashing the base Rom. This sorted out my problem .. using this method has been working flawlessly ever since XXDLI4 for me .. worth a shot mate .

How do you get odin to flash an OTA file? I thought the whole point of the cf-root was to get to cwm? Did I miss something here?

Nope.. you can't flash the ota file through odin. Refer to my steps above, once the modem is flashed through odin, you use tge stock recovery to flash the OTA

[Q] Can I flash another modem?

Hey, I just flashed latest 4.1.2 in my I9300 and after that When i flashed 4.2.2 XUFME7 I have the error "Emergency calls only", I think it`s probably from my baseband, probabily it modified my efs (being a new baseband, new format), so when I go to 4.2.2 which probably has a old baseband I get that error, my question is "Can I flash the latest baseband in 4.2.2?", If yes, how can I do that, is anyone have the latest baseband, can someone help me?
Can I flash the latest 4.1.2 baseband in 4.2.2? Where can I find this baseband?
Yes, you can find the XXEMG4 modem in general section
And efs and ROM itself are separated 2 parts, doesn't effect on each other except RIL but it's not big deal.
Main goal is related with EFS, if you have old EFS backup (before XXEMG4 ) then you can use any older modem as long as you want, of course you have to restore the old efs backup to make it compatible.
And if sadly you don't have old efs backup, you can still stick with XXEMG4 or higher modem, just flash modem after you flash ROM then you will be fine
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Ok, but where exactly can I find xxemg4 modem flashable in odin? Cuz I don`t have a backup to my efs folder.
No efs bkup and you started flashing roms..o dear. Flash mg4 zip through recovery not odin. You need to read alot more before you break you phone

No,kernel and recovery are separate. I have siyah kernel and philz recovery. Edit..just to add there is no custom kernel for 4.2.2 leak.

So, if I flash philz recovery with odin it will root my phone also? I don't mind rooting it, but I mind changing my kernel. Also, can I flash philz recovery when useing 4.2.2 stock rom? And believe me I used 4.2.2 XUFME7 stock rom.
try this go ahead and use odin but flash the leak again. yes reflash it but replace the baseband with any mg4 or mg2 that you like. sometimes flashing just the baseband wont work but flashing it as part if a rom will . the best thing imo is to just flash a stock rom from sammobile that uses an mg4 or mg2 baseband
No if you flash philz it wont root it but there is a zip to flash in philz thread. And no it wont change the kernel and yes you can use philz with 4.2.2
--------------

Hello, you're out of topic, I know what I have to do, but I don't find anyware a xxemg4 modem flashable in odin, I want that so I can update my phone back to 4.2.2 XUFME7. Now my questions are those from the above.

After fix the mobile network problems, i reversed to TWRP 2.7.2.1...flash, reflash and flas again the same ROM and its all working fine.
I never had any problems with CWM..but TWRP make F2FS easy to implement on nandroid, thats why i keep using it.

Applied twrp-2.8.0.0-l900.img and modem.bin
To clarify my issue (same as OP): Applying twrp-2.8.6 seems to have ganked my modem. Everything else works. I tried MULTIPLE times to restore to factory, then apply twrp then restore from backup. Found out it is only happening AFTER I apply twrp 2.8.6. I finally found a copy of twrp 2.8.5 for the L900 but that has the same issue, so I applied 2.8.0 and the modem bin at the same time. This seems to have fixed the radio and i am back to functionality AND twrp is installed.
Now, I am not POSITIVE that it requires both actions (it might just be an issue with 2.8.5 and 2.8.6), but the solution was:
Code:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY twrp-2.8.0.0-l900.img --RADIO ./ALL_SPT_L900VPUCNE2_L900SPTCNE2_1561791_REV04_user_low_ship/modem.bin --no-reboot
If I have to do this again, I would apply twrp-2.8.0.0-l900.img first using your loader of choice (Odin3 or heimdall et al.) and see if that was all that was necessary or they both have to be applied (for some wildly cool magics that I am sure no one would be able to figure out).

Oh man, thanks so much for posting this. I ran into the same trouble (flashed latest twrp and lost network). Just ODINed the modem.bin back and my phone is back!
