No SIM card after ICS

[nbog]

First timer, newcomer to android (from symbian), so please be patient if I ask something obvious to android gurus

So, bought my SGH-717r, on GB.
1. Unlocked it
2. Rooted, installed CMW and did full backup
3. Flashed T879UVLF5modem and my Wind was back on
4. Spent days reading on this forum, getting familiar with android...
5. Decided to upgrade to ICS and applied StockROMs.net-SGH-I717R_Rogers_1_20120628212445_558luhzx6e Rogers ICS update. There was a .dll file in that zip, although I unpacked only tar file and put on my SD for flash.
6. Everything went well, got my Rogers ICS
7. Unrooted again, and then...

8. Tried all possible modems for Tmobile (to get me on Wind) and every time I got "no SIM card".

Also, my systems showed
- unkown IMEI
-unknown modem etc..

2 days of reading on this forum and elsewhere and...

9. Went to CMW to restore original GB when things were working. Yes, I got my Wind HSPA working, but I am on GB


How to get ICS? What did I do wrong?

Thanks

Since you are flashing, why don't you try one of the custom ROMs(black star, cyanogenmod, rocket, crash, etc...) out there. They are rooted and cleansed.

Yikes ....
This is the 5th device I am aware of with this condition...
2 of which went in for repairs.
This is an ugly trend that's forming .....and I spent 3 days trying to fix a device like this ....and never found a solid solution.

On 3 other devices that now work .....the users were able to downgrade to GB and repair the sim issue.
I can't say that this fix will work ...but I'd say that at least 60% of the users have recovered successfully using this method ....g
