Hey guys. I know for sure there is another thread about a similar problem but the biggest problem I'm having is figuring out what to do next, or better yet, what did I even mess up?
I made a thread a couple days ago here asking about the LTE option on my phone and how there was none. It's an Intl' phone and therefore I guess doesn't work on Canadian LTE networks.
Before we start, I'm using TWRP 2.7.0.0 . My phone is the UAE version of the D802, which is the D80220C. My current custom rom is Liquidsmooth MS3.2 .
So I found a list of modems and flashed the one for Bell. It was for the D803, but the thread I was looking at said it was cross-compatible so I assumed that meant it's okay for me to flash it on my phone.
Even so, I backed up my EFS partitions just to be 100% sure. I even used the .zip file that automatically backs up the current modem files. So I thought there was definitely a way out if it didn't work.
I will give you the full story of what was done and maybe I can get some guidance on maybe something I did wrong.
1) I flashed the D803 Bell modem.
2) Reboot to system, LS3.2 hangs on start up. Tried a hard restart to see if it wasn't a fluke. Nothing. Still hanging.
3) Figured the EFS files were toast, so I ran the restore .zip for my EFS. Reboot, and still hanging.
4) Said WTF? and restored my first stable rooted stock rom. It booted into the rom fine, but when it got to the lock screen I saw the "Service Disabled" and the phone quickly crashed.
5) Didn't even attempt to restart on that rom. So I tried a couple terminal commands to copy the modems1.img and modemst2.img files to corresponding partitions. Copied both just fine, but no change. Still screwing up.
So, this is where I am so far. I am in the process of downloading the D80220C UAE .kdz file so I can try to flash that one first. If that doesn't work, I'm really at a loss.
When I read into this some more, all I see is people who have totally wiped their EFS files and having to spend a whole bunch of time using a bunch of different programs to get in an recover the IMEI number.
What do you guys think?
