Hi all,

I have a Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy S3 that I can't get the modem to work on. I have Philz recovery on it and have tried a few modem files but neither the wireless or the mobile carrier works.

I have tried putting cyanogenmod on it but am back on a stock ROM at this point. I am at a bit of a loss as to what to do.

The phone boots fine, looks all normal but I just can't get on the mobile network(tried multiple SIM's).

I am really hoping you can help!

You've had the phone for a while so I didn't think it would be blacklisted.

Since you have the 4.3 bootloader, you need to have a compatible modem and, from my experience, only the mk5 modem will work.

Did you use Odin to flash back to stock?

Yes, that is how I put the current stock firmware on it. I had cyanogenmod on it at one point...

I am at a loss as to why you cannot connect to a network. Which carrier do you want to connect with?

Is the i747 modem compatible with the i747m?
