Modem problem with S6 G920i? Insert SIM card reboot loop.
I'm a noob at this- so I was wondering if I could get some help after intensive googling without avail.
I currently have an S6 G920i and I'm trying to install anything < 7.0 without the bloat. But whenever I install lineageOS (7.0, 7.1, 8.1) everything works fine but I get a SIM card error when booting up and it asks me to restart in a loop.
- How do I resolve it?
- Do I install the modem firmware or the g920i (instead of the g920f)? how so and where do I get that, and do I do so after installing the ROM or before?
In case it makes any difference, I'm on dual boot linux / windows so any solution will do.
also, in case it's relevant, I have the g920i (bought in Chile) but I am in Europe

As far as I know it is the G920F and G925F that are the supported variants.
I've seen the spec of both and they're basically the same thing. DO you know what makes the ROM not work on this version specifically?
The fact that they are not the same thing springs to mind. I'm sure one of the devs can explain the myriad of considerations required to bring a new device.
