Root [Virgin Mobile] No Wifi or Data

[David Dubz]

I've never seen this issue before with any phone. My brother recently got a Galaxy S3 for black friday after seeing how much I was enjoying it.

I rooted it and set up CM11 for him, but data wouldn't connect, even with the APN fix. I thought it was an issue with the ROM, but no matter what ROM I tried, nothing would work. We ended up restoring it back to the stock rom.

Unfortunately, this didn't work either. Data, service, and wifi won't connect at all and the baseband version is "Unknown" on every ROM I've tried. Solutions?

Might of have been that you have the Tri-band version instead of the L710 version

You're right! I just checked. Mine is the SPH-L710 while his is the SPH-L710T. Flashing the APN setting zip must have messed up cell service. Is there any way to get it back?

There is some info on the Tri-band version over at the boost forums. Here is a link to specific troubleshooting post.

I checked this yesterday and found the modem.img. I restored it from the recovery and the phone works fine now! I'll link to it with instructions when I get home so anyone else with the Tri-band version can fix their phone if the same thing happens. Thanks a bunch!
