Missing GSM and WCDMA on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have installed the latest stock firmware on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge (Android 6.0.1).
I have inserted my SIM (Romanian carrier, Orange) and it asks for my PIN code, but it doesn't connect to the network for some reason. I tried Googling and everything, but every post said that I should change the network mode, and that's there I found the possible reason my device doesn't connect to the network.
I am missing GSM and WCDMA from the network mode list, does anybody have any idea how I could enable them?
Before upgrading, my SIM card worked just fine.
Thank you.
EDIT: xda-developers doesn't let me add links to pictures...so here's the imgur link with two spaces in it http:/ /imgur.com/ a/FCwst
EDIT 2: I have installed the latest firmware using Samsung Kies, no fancy Odin flashing, so this is the official firmware.

[Q] Galaxy S4 I545L (Open Mobile) How to enable/use it on GSM Mode?

All righ guys I've decided to open this thread so we can work more specific with the phone.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 SCG-I545L (from Open Mobile PR) wich i want to use with a GSM carrier. So far this is all I've been trying and the info i can provide (will include Screenshot)
It does not have the option to choose gsm on network.
I've downloaded a stock 4.2 firmware and tried to install it with Odin and with Safestrap but instantly failed, no software damage occurred.
Tried to access hidden menus but no luck with any code.
Somewhere in this forum i'vs read about enabling those options, did the steps but no luck.
Downloaded the ServiceMode Shortcut apk from PlayStore and for my surprise this is what I found (image attached)
Just finished installing the hyperdrive rom but cant switch from CDMA/LTE to GSM/UMTS or Global. When I select the option it automatically go back to CDMA. Manage to insert APN successfully.
Flash it again and still do the same, flash it with the att and still search for cdma, when i set to manual search it said "error while searching for network".
anyone? any soggestion?
hi/hola

You may need to flash a Three modem
Read this: [REF] Galaxy S3 Modem / Radio Collection (I9300 & I9300T ONLY) CWM & Odin Flashable
To flash a new modem:
1. Download an official rom from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and extract the zip to md5 then extract the md5
2. In Odin, select “CP”(previously “Phone”) and fetch the modem.bin file
3. Only thing checked should be “Auto Reboot”
4. Put the phone in download mode, plug in USB, then in Odin hit Start

S6 Edge SM-G925F Modem Change

Masters, i badly need your help on how i can do this to my phone. My mobile signal/reception suddenly went dead using 4G or 3G (signal changes to Emergency calls only) but only works on Edge/GMS mode. my sim card normally works on a different phone but only my s6 edge can't detect mobile signal from 3G or 4G.
Things I've done.
Changed sim card - same issue
Reset Network Settings - same issue
Factory Reset the phone - same issue
I read a post that Modem can be flashed using old version of android but I can't find the file to use and I don't know the option to select in Odin. Can someone help me on this?
My device Information:
Samsung S6 Edge
SM-G925F - from Philippines (Globe network)

Recently unlocked Galaxy J7 no service issue

I recently unlocked my Galaxy J7 Sky Pro from the tracfone carrier (called them, got two codes, put them in and device said it is now unlocked).
Now when I try to insert a different sim card the phone seems to have no service, even though the sim card is recognized (asks me for the pin and logs in properly). In fact that sim card is a prepaid european one, from the german carrier O2, but since J7 Sky Pro can do LTE connection I though that should work fine?
What do you guys think, is there something I could do to fix the issue?
My exact model is:
SM-S727VL
And android version is:
6.0.1
One kind of annoying thing is that even though I unlocked the phone, it still shows the tracfone logo on startup. Maybe the firmware is preventing the european sim card to connect to a tower? Is there some "international" version of firmware I could update to to make it work?
Thanks for any suggestion!

A10 [SM-A105M] Doesn´t connect to mobile network / can only make emergency calls

Hi, i recently flashed an A10 with the stock firmware (I downloaded the one that matched my country), and everything worked great, except the phone can only make emergency calls. When i insert the SIM card it detects the mobile network, but it doesnt seem to be able to select a network operator (neither manually nor automatically).
I flashed the "free" firmware (the one that isnt locked to any network provider), and It detects the provider that matches different SIM cards and sets up the APN (i also tried manually setting them with official guides), but doesn´t connect to the network and says that it "can´t connect to this network right now, try again later" when i try to select the network operator (IDK if operator is the right word, my phones are in spanish, and dont know which word android uses on english)
The baseband is correct, but when i looked up the IMEI on an IMEI info website, it matched with a NOTE 10 instead of an A10.
This is a friends phone, it was non usable (wouldnt boot), i didnt back up the EFS partition because im a dumbass, but i think the reason it didnt work was because someone else tried to flash a firmware (maybe a note 10 instead of A10), but he says it just stopped working. I am yet to try to flash other network provider´s firmware (the one it originally used), but i was told any that matched my country should work.
WI-FI and mobile network both work, and it detects the SIM card.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
Have you tried with a different SIM card?
