Samsung Galaxy 7 SPRINT MIPI DEVICE FAIL


Hello everyone,

I'm facing an issue with my S7 sprint. That all the mobile network is gone It suddenly started saying searching for networks. I tried to switch automatic mode to GSM/UMTS
But it is stuck on Automatic.

After dialing *#0011# In service mode everything seems fine except it says Non-fatal MIPI device fail.


Please guys help me. Please tell me a solution.

Yes IMEI is clear. And the phone is also unlocked. I was using it and it was a charm a week ago.

A similar issue happened to a user in the GC Pro forums. Someome said it could be a hardware issue with the "FEMid" chip

Yes I saw that post.
How could it be possible??

There is no hardware damage phone was working good.
All of a sudden internal hardware problem?

It needs to be confirmed.

There is only two posts with this issue so no one is really paying attention in forums.

Appreciate your reply

Did you do anything to the phone before this happened? Any software changes, prolonged charging or anything that could help us if there are any leading causes for MIPI device failing.

No, I didn't do anything unusual.
No software changes. No nothing. When the problem occurred then I tried the software things tried different firmware but no luck then I got back on stock firmware but still no luck.

Unfortunately it seems to be the case to replace the FEMid chip if you show MIPI fail in *#0011#
