Never mind, Flashed Ktoonsez Kernel and my Wifi came back. Should have read previous posts too find this solution faster.

I am on MF9 4.2.2 and I just followed the method to flash MK2 and then complete the rest. I put it through in ODIN but nothing came up. It just said RESET and when I resetted it it was back to MF9 and Android 4.2.2. Any suggestions?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] le nitro:
I'm a bit confused. I'm going to flash the NAE modem before I installed the Stock Rooted 4.2.2? Or do I flash 4.2.2 and then use odin to flash the NAE modem?

I'm on 4.3 right now with MK2 modem

Update: I did a factory wipe, deleted all data (except external SD), flashed the NAE 4.4.2, before I allowed it to boot, I used odin 3.07 and updated to the latest NAE modem and it's stuck at the sprint boot up logo.

Another Update: I've completely wiped the device 3 times, reflashed NAE via odin 3.07 multiple times and passed installation all times.

Last thing i've tried was wiping, reflashing the rom, wiping 2x, relfashing modem and it's still stuck on sprint boot up logo.

Idk if its bricked or what, but this seemed like a pretty simple install and i'm not getting anywhere.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] egingell:
Everything I've read suggests that if you downgrade from 4.3, you break the phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] kachhh:
same here but i would love to try the rom but cant since the wifi works for me but no data no g3 or g4 at all any help

mk2 with NAE modem runing .... i flashed the rom then with odin i did the modem but wont work so i went back to mk2 with NAE modem and is fast but no NAE rom :(

I just flashed this with a MDL bootloader and all is good!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] asafegous:
What baseband are you on? Is cell service functional?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mboord:
so I am on MF9 baseband. I just went back to MF9 modem had some issues with NAE on MDL build.

with NAE modem only installed on a MDL build:

I have service 3g, 4g, and wifi works but when i made a phone call my dailer screen would freeze even though I could hear the phone dialing. I went back to MF9 right now and it seems to be okay again. not sure if its an issue with MDL build and NAE modem. so just to be clear i was on MDL build and MF9 baseband and i just flashed the NAE moden only and had a weird freezing issue when i make a phone call. but 3g and 4g was fine.

Hope this helps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] desiwizard:
I was on MK2 and decided to unlock as I am not in the US.

I downgraded to MJA by flashing complete firmware via ODIN

Then flashed MDC modem only and unlocked it successfully

I lost wifi with MDC moden so I flashed back MJA modem only and all is good and working

I am not taking MK2 OTA update that I have been prompting for, just to be on safe side.

Hope you got your answer

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] weboide:
I'm trying to use heimdall to flash MK2. But the tar.md5 contains 4 files (modem.bin, NON-HLOS.bin, rpm.mbn, tz.mbn) on the Galaxy S2 I would just flash modem.bin, but I'm not familiar with these other new files. Should I flash all of them?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mxmr:
I just used heimdall to flash the latest NAE modem (worked flawlessly on the first attempt). It only included the NON-HLOS.bin and modem.bin files. So the other two are probably not strictly necessary if you just want to change your baseband but if it's included in the tar.md5 it is probably a good idea to flash those as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Teknician:
I'm back to MK2 modem. Every time I flash NAE, I lose my sound. Any ideas anyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MCL1981:
I tried to put NAE on mine. The phone refused to work right. It was really strange. The phone app would hang, not connect, or have no sound. Downgraded to MK2 and all is well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] 0x6A7232:
For those having issues flashing, I think I do recall that in order for the flash to take correctly, you had to put the phone into download / rescue mode from a complete powered-down state with no charger / USB attached. Try that, see if it helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Teknician:
Yep and doesn't hurt to do an unplug and battery pull after your modem is flashed. Usually sticks flawlessly that way. I've flashed numerous modem versions and this is the only one that I don't have sound for some odd reason and if I flash unknownforces NAE rom, it's fine.

Not sure what's going on but I'll try again. 3 times didn't change anything at all even if my roms backup and restore goes perfectly on NAE (but no sounds at all on any).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Unknownforce:
You can't run a different version modem than the stock kernel/ROM that you're currently running.

This is typically resolved by running a custom kernel and/or ROM.

I'm working out the kinks in the current ROM Release, once I'm done with it, you'll see everyone will update their custom ROMs and kernels as well. So I would just sit tight on what you got until we can get NAE fully functional.

Mk5

So I just got the S4 today and I'm trying to put a custom rom on it. I successfully did that but I see that I need to change the modem to either the Mk2 or NAE modem. Problem is I have Mk5 (which I dont even see on the list so im not sure when it came into play) and I try to flash the Mk2 or NAE in Odin and they both fail.. can ANYONE please point me in the right direction. I've searched everywhere and I dont see the solution. Thanks! (Everytime I get close to finding something its always a thread thats closed by a moderator with no link sending me in the right direction)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] FanOfSkynyrd:
I believe mk5 modem means you have the tri band s4, so none of the modems for the regular s4 will work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Erock2k4:
Ok I just looked online and the model for the Tri-band is SPH-720T I have the SPH-720 should this be the normal one?

NM - WHen I was booting up into the download mode it does say SPH-720T ;-/ Crap now I have to figure out what to do lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
You have the triband version. If your baseband is MK5 you have the T. The model number will show SPH-L720 because you said it yourself that you installed a custom rom that was made for the regular gs4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] stealthee:
Ok ive tried to flash the NAE modem 2 times now and when i reboot phone still on the MK2 baseband. Ive tried flashing it pda and phone. not sure what I could be doing wrong both times it says passed then I hold down power and reboot phone. Is it because i used reboot to download mode from the rom instead of pulling the battery and then doing the power up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Mistertac:
I'd definitely try getting into download mode from being powered off , not the menu within the ROM. That's a known issue. See if that fixes you up!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] raptorseye:
is there a way to check which bootloader you currently have installed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Mistertac:
One way is look for "Samsung phone info" app from GBE store. It'll show you everything that sometimes Roms won't.. Your bootloader with be in there. The app is very small and free

soft bricked MF9

I am soft bricked. :o

Odin failed on 1st attempt to install NAE Modem/Firmware. It started to write and progress bar stopped under the "n" in "Do not turn off target".

I verified the BL is MF9 before I started and my current software version, baseband, & build number are all MF9. I have both NANDROID & TB backups before I started. But now I cannot get to Recovery menu.

When NAE modem/Firmware failed, I attempted to install the Philz Recovery via Odin. Same thing... It started to write and progress bar stopped under the "n" in "Do not turn off target".

So, I am stuck. It powers up to the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I can still get to download mode but Odin fails to write.

I did the MF9 update using Odin back in August 2013 and made sure not to get the Knox BL. Not sure why but by skipping the updates between MF9 & NAE did I miss something? Do I need a PIT file? Do I need a secret handshake or 4 leaf clover?

help!

Using Odin 1.85 and 3.09 both have the same results. I can flash NAE modem only (have not tried other modems). Cannot flash firmwares. Have tried all firmwares listed on root post. Am using method to power off phone and enter download mode through power+volume down combo instead of reboot into bootloader method. This is what allowed me to flash the NAE modem in the first place as I could not flash NAE modem using reboot to bootload method from inside recovery.

I have to restart Odin AND pull battery and usb cable from phone, boot back into Download Mode and start Odin again fresh before it will let me flash NAE modem again or reproduce the first fail error type posted up top while attempting firmware.

Why would the modem flash but not the firmware? Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: I have tried other USB ports, this is the only port that allows me to flash modem.

Edit2: My phone stops booting after a failed firmware flash attempt. Says to connect to something called Kies and perform a recovery. In this mode I can flash the modem again and the phone boots again normally.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] tenaciousj:
Just did this, used the video to follow through. Although everything did "work" the rom was real laggy and unresponsive. Got a few random reboots, no sound and couldn't toggle on wifi. Tried to reflash just the MK2 rom to see if that would work and no dice, had to go back to the MK2 modem to make it work, sticking with MK2 which seems fast and stable til things get figured out.

difference between stock NAE vs this baseband download?

Noob question: When I got my phone back from Samsung or had 4.42 and NAE baseband on it. Is there any advantage to me in flashing this NAE modem vs my stock NAE baseband on the phone? I did remove knox myself. Thanks!

Also, does NAE provide superior reception to mk3 or mk2? I had LJ7 I believe on my s3, and that seemed to get grest reception. NAE is so far at times disappointing, as I sometimes lose 3g in populated areas and it seems to tske forever to get back access to 3g.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] alkataz:
Samsung updated the phone to the latest firmware. There would be no advantage too flashing this, they are the same thing. Did you try updating your PRL and profile?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dreamer609:
Thanks for the reply. That is what I thought as well. you think that might help? I am Verizon pre paid aka page plus, of which my sph-L720 is flashed over to. From looking at the coverage maps, I know I am a little off the main concentration of 3g but have previously gotten better reception. And I know I got better reception while in the city before, as in my phone wasn't struggling to lock onto a 3g connection / data. I did previously set the annoying roaming guard to home before it did this, though, but from the db level displayed, it really should not have had that issue roaming issue anyway. When my phone was at warranty repair from samsung in texas, I was told they updated my prl and profile, but is that something I have to do locally? And not being on sprint, do you think that would help? Or is it just a sprint tower thing? Thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] JerryGNYC:
If you're not going to be using the phone in a corporate environment that requires it, then tripping the Knox counter isn't really a bad thing... unless you worry about returning the phone to Samsung (not Sprint) for warranty work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Sinyc:
Aren't you knox'd if you took the MJA ota update? You can still remove the Knox files on NAE though right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] daniel4653:
Yes it was activated with the MJA update if I recall correctly. You can remove the FILES but you cannot remove the Knox BOOTLOADER. It has been attempted via Odin by trying to odin older bootlaoder by using older tars like MF9, MK2 or MJA. But the tars fail. Which shows Samsung has implemented something that does not allow us to downgrade the bootloader.
