After trying to get onto kit-kat i used this installation guide xda-developers - View Single Post - [ROM][I9505][XXUFNBE][15Mar] Omega v25 ●►Android 4.4.2◄●GoogleSE 4.3●►Omega Files◄● some of the modems i couldnt download so i try different ones,anyways managed to get omega working then all went wrong ,i notced the sound wasnt working ...on anything,couldnt ring out and the phone kept switching on and off ,i managed to get back to stock/root 4.3 and still no sound at all.i dont think i should have been able to get back to 4.3 so i have messed up bigtime,when the phone rings i cant even accept a call.this could be terminal as the phone is no good without sound,also wi-fi isnt working now.please help:(
 
Hawker is the boy for this problem I would guess, as he is into all this non-hlos-bin goat rope.

I think that you have flashed an incompatible GSM+LTE modem combo for your ROM and have also tried to revert from 4.4.2 to 4.3 on a Knox'd and locked bootloader. Am I correct?

Find out which boot loader you are on. There is an app called Samsung phone info which will tell you, or at an adb shell type
getprop ro.bootloader

You can install different non-hlos.bin versions compared to boot loader, but it needs to be from the same android version at the very least. To be safe flash the non-hlos.bin that corresponds to bootloader version. That will get you up to scratch again.
 
bootloader = i9505XXUFNAD
could you help me on theThen flash the corresponding non-hlos.bin?Im not brill at this as you can tell

Strange you're on NAD bootloader, as you say you are on 4.3. NAD is 4.4.2.
AS you cannot downgrade your bootloader, download NAD non-hlos.bin (referred to as wifi fix) from here

Turn phone all the way off (power off completely) then reboot into download mode
Start Odin 3.09 and browse for the file you downloaded by clicking the "CP" box
connect phone to PC
click Start
 
The nad wifi fix wont download from the mega site ,it gets to 100% but no way of showing where its dowloaded to,,, sry guys im having one here :(
 
Hawker sry i have to go to work now night shift ill try again tomoz, ill get up early and try again thankyou for helping..
 
OK managed to get nad wi-fi fix downloaded and odin 3.09,went into download mode and flashed wi-fi fix after extracting the tar file,flashed and rebooted phone and sound is back thank god,only problem now is wi-fi is still not working....

Edit your build.prop

Ensure ro.securestorage.support=false

Reboot
 
Have got wi-fi working now thanks Hawker,but for some reason the sd card is not being recognised when i go to storage and mount sd card i get the message "unfortunately,Settings has stopped."
and thats it, we are nearly there sry to be a pain.
 
Tw kk does not full access external SD card. I assume you mean the external.

Look in the thread on here discussing it. It links a play store app to get around the problem
 
Hawker is receiving his daily colonic irrigation from nurse, (see, he's not full of sh**), so, as I appear to be reduced to the role of trusty sidekick on this... I suggest that as you have gone from JB to KK and back to JB, that it might be a good idea to copy off any files that you want, from the SD card, (not system files), and format your SD card in the phone, check that it's working and then copy back your personal stuff.
 
Can you just confirm exactly what rom/firmware you're currently on. I don't know why but i was wrongly assuming you are on a 4.4 rom when you mentioned sd card issues. I'm not sure what the implications of being on a boot loader that is newer than your firmware.

I would do as ironass suggested and to a full wipe, but then flash a 4.4.2 ROM, either by flashing stock and re-rooting etc, or perhaps try echoe v18

ive ordered an sdcard reader and will try that also ironass thanks

Hawker info: i tried the 4.4 omega rom but i messed somewhere and somehow got back to 4.3 stock.id like to go to 4.4 but this has put me right off:o
Firmware:info
Bootloader version
1905XXUFNAD
Baseband:
19505XXUEMJ5
PDA
1905XXUEMK9
CSC
19505H3GEMJ2
 
You're on a 4.4.2 bootloader and I'm not sure if you can downgrade that.

I would full wipe+format and go NBH all the way for bootloader, gsm, LTE and ROM.
