I didn't back up my EFS and my product code is set to KOR after trying JPK.
Can someone tell me what the original product code for T-Mobile USA is?
Thanks! ;-)
Nevermind. My whole /efs/ folder is empty. I'm screwed... ;D
Alright. Was able to work it out and got it fixed. The product code is SGH-T959ZKBTMB if anyone is interested ;-)

Hello, I recently bought a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 2 off of ebay, I put in my sim card and it doesn't read it. Originally i thought it was a hardware problem but when i typed *#06# It said IMEI Null/Null. Is there anyway i can possibly get this removed so I can use the phone? It is not rooted but I am willing to root it if it is needed to fix the problem, Thanks

T-mobile USA, or T-mobile Europe? They have different models.
You're in the right place for T-mobile Europe.
T-mobile USA's phone is different, and has a separate forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329

Hello,
The link is not working.
And I want to change the product code for future product updates via NSU or OTA, else I have to flash firmware each time a new firmware appears.
Also If I use NSU (Nokia Software Utility for Retail) it reads the default product code and the update which flash my phone is the same original as for detected product code and not detected firmware.

You have this firmware RM-821 VAR EURO2 DE CV BLACK.
It means it's unbranded version for germany. So your phone came unbranded if this is the product code written on your phone label.

Yup, i know. Very happy with the phone and soon we will get the Lumia Black firmware.
Bump,
Any idea how can I permanently remove/replace "product code" in Lumia 920 ?
I reckon you can't. Your product code is --I believe-- "hard-coded" in the device. You can read it underneath the SIM holder, along with the IMEI. My guess is: if you can't change the IMEI, and the product code is printed in the same plate, very likely you also can't change the code. But I might be wrong.

what you talking? there no any product code underneath SIM card holder on my 920... and product code is software related, not hardware
just download any firmware (with product code) you want and flash it with NCS
I'm sorry for you, but there's a product code underneath SIM holder in my 925, along with the IMEI. Besides, if you check your product code with some tool like, for instance, NCS, it will show your hardware's product code regardless of the firmware you flashed, I believe.
you can flash, but you can't change it...

Yes you can Flash any ROM to a Lumia but the Product Code is programmed in the same manner as the IMEI... is HardCoded.

Hi,
Long story!
I got an S3 from a friend who need help because it was very slow and whatnot, anyways, he also told me that this S3 is not from UAE but it's working fine here, just very slow.
I said well, I will install a UAE firmware and hard rest it, which I did but ever since, I get this NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK.
I read every possible thread about this issue here and elsewhere and tried all methods like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z6zTfe-sC4
None of it worked out for me.
I tried another Android firmwares (4.3 Etisalat UAE, 4.2.1 Etisalat UAE and finally 4.3 T-Mobile Germany)
The reason, I chose Germany is because when I did first the hard reset before installing the UAE firmware, the phone was in German, so I had to choose English.
Now, obviously something in the UAE firmware is not compatible with the phone, maybe modem, basband...I don't know.
How do I know which firmware to download from sammobile and from which country.
I'm not even sure that it's Germany! It could be Austria, Swiss and even Germany has many operators, O2, T-mobile, Vodafone etc......
Is it even possible to restore the phone to it's very original software after trying all of these Firmwares? I doubt it.
One more thing, from the threads I read here and there about this problem, this issue has to do with the IMEI but it's not my case I think.
When I hit *#06# I get a regular IMEI, nothing lost.
PLEASE HELP!
Thank You in advance
Take it back to your friend. It's either stolen and imei blacklisted or region locked now you updated it to 4.3.
Search and read to find out more.

This friend of mine works at the Norwegian Embassy and his phone he got it from the Norwegian staff there, but it was bought outside the country.
And he has been using it for over a year .
Anyways, I went to samsung and it's either software or motherboard because the IMEI is showing on the device meaning it's written on the software but it got corrupted on the hardware.
will see
waiting for their call

Hi to all guys! (i'm italian...so sorry in advance for my bad english )
i'll tell you all the story before explain the problem.
One of my friends, give me this phone... i don't know the "Story" of the phone, but he told to me, that it wasn't stolen or anything like that.
Anyway the phone got 3 problems:
1)Battery cold (i got another one - solved)
2)Usb connector damaged (re-soldered - solved)
3)Network.
When i put my sim, i can see that i have 2/3 bar of signal, but i'm not registred on the network....if i do manually, i got "registred on the network" but it's not.
So i'm asking to you all....
1)A COMPLETE stock rom (PDA- MODEM - CSC) for this i9300 (Italy)
2)(if the problem it's still there after the flash) a good efs from another i9300....so i can replace it.
3) Any other help/suggest would be appreciated
Thanks in advance for the answers (you guys are great....i've solved a lot of problems to a lot of people....i'm a technician)
Keep it up ^^
P.S.
I saw the counter of this phone at 09....so i'm worried about the efs or the modem.
P.S 2
I've checked the IMEI with a pay service and the result was "Clean". So it's officially not blacklisted.
P.S 3
Not important but...I've installed meanwhile Rom: Cyan..11 and arter97 kernel...and i'm playing with it ^^"...still not fix the problem.

In the attachment you have the screenshots.
I use here in italy the operator "TIM".....so the firmware it need to be TIM or no brand (ITV).... i actually flashed that one as you can see.
P.S.
For the others....i've noticed (thanks to KaosMaster) that on the back of my phone there is an IMEI....and on the system info there is another....
I think the old owners have changed the IMEI for X reason.....anyway the actual imei is "clean" and not blacklisted.
Anyway the original IMEI (behind the phone) is: 353921057454795
The actual: 356260059752444
I'm no more interested to hide the imei....
i have to know why was changed and if is actually usable the new one (because it's clean) or i'll be forced to use it as spare parts for other s3 and it's a real shame....(i actually have a I9100 T_T)

Flash Boeffla Kernel. I am also face the problem. After flashing boeffla kernel i got my network back.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/kernel-boeffla-kernel-5-2-27-03-2014-t1964572
try this if u dont got the network let me know
sorry for my bad english
This is known problem while your device serial number is corrupted. Best solution is to repair it via Z3X Box and reenter serial number manually. Dirty workaround is flashing modem patched by Ariza and unsecure kernel, in example Boeffla. If you will decide to choose second metod you will be forced to repeat those steps every time you flash a new firmware because your efs will be permanently changed. I suggest box metod, it shouldn't be expensive. In my country it is cost ca. 10 bucks.

This could happen if the board was replaced, it would have a different IMEI. The back plastic was replaced, again same thought. Or the imei in the sticker is bad and changed to good from a defective device. Or the worst, it was cloned.
The serial number I asked for thou is not shown in the images. It is blank. Please provide the one off the sticker and let's see where this leads.
Ok in this moment i got again the error of the connector..so i can't charge the phone >_> I have to replace with a new one T_T
So i'll let you know in this few days any kind of update. (I think i can try to install the kernel...i have enough battery)
Anyway on the back there is just one sticker...no other behind that or overlayed...
and the S/N: is that one RF1C83TA9DJ....
If i have other news i'll let you know in short time...
Thanks for everyone for the support until now.
Wait my news ^^ (fu**ing connector...doesn't charge....he know there is a cable put in is a** because if is in standby, the screen turn on....BUT doesn't charge......i love this kind of situation...)

Nothing to do...
I've tried everything.
This complete stock 4.3 with the Boeffla Kernel - Nothing.
Stock 4.3 No brand ITV with the Boeffla kernel - Nothing.
Cyanogenmod 11 Nightly with Boeffla kernel - Nothing.
Wipe/system/devil cache/cache/data on every round....
So the only way is to fix all of it with the Z3X Box... i have to go in a shop (to some of my colleagues) and give to them the phone.....here in italy is expensive this kind of work...50/70$...
Anyway thanks for all your support guys ^^
See you next time (at the next problem )
