ok first let me say
this i believe my first post
i search and read a lot but comment none
so here we go
i have a SPH-L720 that i UNLOCKED and use on Straight talk
im currently running the latest Beanstalk Rom 4.4.2 215 for sprint
the versions before this ...
my baseband is MDC
i have wiped cach/davlik/and everything else
i have reinstalled clean
i have tried a different kernel (chronic)
i have tried different phone modes im currenlty on global (have tried GSM/Wcdma prefered etc.) and tested after a reboot
i think its the phone.apk itself
this phone worked flawlessly on the darthstalker rom multi-carrier
and aside from the no incoming calls & the inability to hang up out going calls everything works perfect

EVERYTHING
IM A BEANSTALK DIE HARD
i dont want to use another rom for me this rom is PERFECT
thanks for the help -Sean

Does it just not ring or does it not power up for you to answer? And same for hang up does the screen come back on? Can you make calls?

Had the same issue

I had the same issue with my S4. tried the Heimdall fix and it did not work for me.

Finally I had to flash MK2 and get back on to 4.3

The phone app works fine now. I tried to flask 4.4.2 rom again yesterday but still no luck with the dialer. Staying on 4.3 until we can find a solution to the dialer app crashing or Samsung releases 4.4.2 for S4 :(

Same problem GS4 Sprint

Greetings,

Same problem here, I haven't tried incoming calls as I installed the ROM last night. But I'm not able to hang up a phone call.

Any suggestions appreciated.

I also have the same issue....i tried to update from stock rooted mk2 (with mf9 bootloader) to stock rooted NAE kitkat
But the phone app doesn't respond even i flashed the NAE only modem but no luck.
I tried to flash back to mk2 modem but no success (Baseband: Unknown)

Now I am downloading the stock mf9 .tar file to flash through odin...may be the modem or efs is corrupted.
then i will see if the phone app will work?
