I wonder if the ICCID info is also stored in the nvram. This is the area where the MEID, IMEI, phone number, etc is stored. If any of you were resourceful enough when you had a normally working phone to have backed this up, this could be a fix. If so, a simple "nvrestore reboot" command from a root terminal could perhaps restore the missing ICCID.

DO NOT try this if you have not already done a nvbackup, or you will most certainly brick your phone by writing null data over your previous data.

For those of you who have not done this, search here for the method to do it. It is a great safety net when these numbers get lost.

In a nutshell, the nvbackup command backs up your efs directory, which is actually spread over 4 partitions. It backs up the nvram to the backup storage nvram area of your phone. Or something like that.

Anyway, I would bet that this would restore your missing ICCID, thus preventing you from getting the simm card errors.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Can you post a screen shot of your SYSTEM--》ABOUT PHONE --》STATUS to show all the information? I'm thinking your OK though. My ICCID is like 18 or 20 characters. I tried counting but my eye kept twitching.

If I ran the thread I'd do some updates to the intro. I originally wrote my post after desperation in trying to find an answer and could not.

Plus at the time I'd never been into modem flashing on phones. Since I have and would agree with your thoughts there. But I don't have the ability to screw my phone to test the theory. I am thinking it's a simple software glitch that is probably fix in the next major software release.

OK that's weirs. No MAC address for WiFi? Does your phone work normal though on WiFi? I would think its just a software glitch if everything is working OK. Might be worth trying to reflash a modem. To see if it will clear that stuff up.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GRK4G63:
Sorry about that. I forgot to mention that I purposely blacked-out that stuff.

I did it because I vaguely recall someone else doing something similar a while back, so it gave me the impression that it may be a no-no to display your MEID or IMEI or whatever.

So I kinda went on privacy-mode, but yeah everything on my phone is working properly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Haha oh typically people will do a blur effect or paste something on top. If all the fields are populated then you're golden! Everything should be working fine.

I will warn you about modems though, they can be obsessive :) Because each modem seems to have its own pros/coins depending on your area. I've been going mad flashing stuff, currently running an MD4 ROM with the MD4 modem and have good speed. Though I think the LJ7 gave me slightly better performance. So I'm flashing back and forth testing ... be warned if you're a tweaker!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GRK4G63:
What if I'm a meth user and I'm always tweaking? What then?? :silly:

Hehehe...kidding. But all joking aside, it never occurred to me to try flashing a modem to resolve that issue. One thing's for sure, I'm *NEVER* flashing an older version of firmware than LJ7. In retrospect, frankly, that was just stupid.

I'm considering myself

really

really lucky that I didn't brick anything, which leads me to wonder something else:

The "No SIM" error only popped up when I flashed to LEN. Did the LEN build just NOT support 4G LTE? It was Android 4.0.4. I'm gonna guess that back when that was released, Sprint hadn't yet fully deployed their LTE network and was still on WiMAX :rolleyes:

Also, it turns out that for some reason, I wasn't getting the MD4 update while I was at home, but as soon as I went to work it pushed through. I guess it's a matter of which cell site has the update? Oh well, that's a different topic.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Haha trust me I'm a tweaker when it comes to modding hardware ;)

If you're flashing just the modem you can bounce to whatever modem you want. That's just my understanding from what I read, but don't quote me on it. I had really good luck with LJ7, but always willing to test the new stuff to see if there's better performance.

As for the NO SIM error, I'm guessing its a problem with certain software glit he's. Why doing the update from a "stock ROM" would fix the problem. But that's more or less probably because Samsung built a good phone and software, missing the aspect of what rooting might do.

I've noticed with updates, they seem to appear more when the phone is rebooted. So switching towers might have caused the notification to force the push. Or maybe tower2 might have had the update loaded, whereas the first one did not?

So far though MD4 seems much better than MB1 kernel wise, and signal is MUCH better! I'm still undecided if the MD4 modem is better or basically the same as LJ7.

Good advice!

I decided to take your good advice to heart and look into backing up that information! Now that I have a normally working phone, I used EFS Professional to do an "nvbackup reboot" and I make sure I have a backup handy when I flash any ROMs or go back to stock.

I didn't know this was possible, so thanks for mentioning it :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lexridge:
Cool! Glad to help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] msoto218:
I have a sprint SPH-L710 that I downgraded to LJ7 and LG2 modem. I started having the no sim error on my lock screen right after flashing. I had been searching for months for a fix untill I ran into this post. Flashed to L13 modem with FreeGS3 Modem Installer and the no sim error when away. Thanks for posting this as it helped me resolve my issue!

I have had this problem and the only way to fix it is return it to stock wait 24 hours and run all of the factory system updates and when that is complete reroot your device with your favorite rom. End of story!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] POWerSUrgeSW3:
Basically the update is needed to LJ7 or newer, I'm guessing here. I don't know about the waiting 24 hours. I had my phone unroofed, stock updated, and rerouted within a couple of hours. I also updated the PRL and Profiles on each step.

Maybe the waiting 24 hours is doing the same thing as my last part?

If my phone wasn't updated, I'd be interested to go back and try to experiment with this more...

Well, if anyone is interested, i filed a complaint with the BBB, REGARDING the locked bootloaders vs the unlocked, as unfair business practice against the people who casn't unlock, probably won't help, like everything else we've tried, but had to give it a shot
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] tjamscad:
At least you're trying to make a difference.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Expanding complaints to the BBB got me thinking... How about the Public Utilities Commission? A quick search found this:

How to complain about your Wireless Service: http://www.consumersunion.org/campaigns/learn_more/001038indiv.html

Includes information about complaining to FCC and State Attorney's office as well. Interesting comment in the State Attorney section:

"· Describe the problem. Describe as completely as you can the problem with the product or service you have purchased. Were you told something that was untrue? Describe what you were told and how it was untrue.

· Explain what you want the business to do. Specifically state how much money should be refunded or exactly how you want a product fixed or a service performed."

Weren't we told that the bootloader could be unlocked when we bought these?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
yes, well i think what might be verizon's downfall here is the fact they allowed unlock for 2 wks then locked it down, it's like they baited people to buy the phone, this is not a good thing, in my eyes, i think it's our loophole. as it where
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
I think you guys are stretching. I never heard anything about this phone being bootloader unlocked. It was always the hope and then when some of us got in everyone was nicely surprised.

This phone is not the first time that something like this has happened. Verizon pretty much locks the bootloader on every phone because it "provides us a better service". We all know that is crap but that is how they justify it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
well, your probably right, but none the less some at first got unlocked, either by an oversight from htc or verizon. it still leaves the fact that it's not right to the people who after reading it was unlockable went and ordered the phone, myself included. this i hope will be their downfall in this situation, the big red making a mistake, really
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
i herd from the BBB, all they told me was they were contacting verizon yesterday, haven't heard back yet. that's about all i can report.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
i recieved a letter today from the BBB, stating they contacted verizon, the attached letter is their response, it was tha same generic deal we all recieved before stating their excellence of customer satisfaction blah blah blah, same old story, so that did no good, lets keep on truckin though.

i have to respond within 10 days or they will consider the matter closed, i will of course contact them(BBB) hell i already know what they sent me.

[HTC One X] staviq:
On my HOX, current widget is showing incorrect values and was the cause of high battery consumption, so i dont use it anymore :)

Try "CPU Spy" app from market, and check if Your device is going into deep sleep, if it's not, deep sleep will show as unused cpu state, and You have case of wakelock. for monitoring wakelocks i recommend using "Better Battery Stats" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809)

If You check battery status often, You activate screen and device is going into high power mode, and even if You lock screen back, for couple of seconds device is still in high power mode ( as "high power mode" i mean not "deep sleep" ), therefore even if You are not "using" Your phone, it will drain battery because it will not go to deep sleep.

Did You calibrate the battery after flashing ? It is highly recommended to calibrate battery after changing rom, even if You flash stock rom back.

Anyway, average battery life per one charge is about 24h ( calls and mail sync enabled ), if i play games battery can discharge from 100% to 0% in about 3h, and this is normal for this phone.

Also, bad reception can cause high battery drain.
