Hi - this is a strange one....went through the walkthoughs and docs relating to downgrading my mates legend and then doing the s-off thing and then clockwork mod and then finally froyo.
All that went relatively fine ( a few hiccups along the way but im there ) the phone started out life as being a stock vodafone model and is now - obviously generic. Problem is, is that now i want to put an asda mobile sim in there (works off of the back of vodafone) it cant see their network - not only that - if i put my vodafone sim in there it cant see vodafone either,
Not really sure where to start so i thought id start here
This may not be the right place to post but seeing as it all worked before the rom update i thought this was as good as place as any to start.
thanks to anyone that chips in
Comfy
Try updating the radio,search dev section for radio
yup- good call - it was on 7.03 or something like that - ive got it up to 7.13.35.13 but it hasnt cured the problem....going to try another image now ive got clockwork mod on there....any other suggestions? i say that in a constructive way as ive never seen anything like this before...
tried a cyanogen nightly - which did work either (a bit crashy) but i can only see (at the moment t-mobile) just thought id post to let you know...
Im pretty lost on it all?! Vodafone Legends (UK) are sim unlocked at factory (the reason i bought one on Voda) Ive used Tesco sim, GiffGaff, Orange and O2 with no problems!
Have you tried putting a standard rom on there?
Try this one its the Froyo update standard apart from root.if that works any better you can try loading the rom you want then pushing libhtc_ril.so file across.
Also was this second hand? It may have been blocked due to Loss or Theft? Phone Voda and ask if your imei has been reported or blocked
Yeah, it was a secondhander...ill have to check...got cm 7 nightly on there which works with my work o2 data sim.....can I flash that stock rom without going over clockwork mod....took me ages to get that on!
Thanks for the reply....

can anyone help
i seem to have a problem with sending a sms while 3g is on, everything else works fine. i've tried with a few custom roms but having the same prob with them. when i revert back to froyo 2.2.1 its ok.
ive searched all over google and on ere, a few people have had the same prob but the only solution i've found is using a app called automateit. But shouldnt it work without the need of this app
at the moment im using fla.sh custom rom. if i do the *#1234# i have
PDA: s5830xwkpn
PHONE: s5830xwkp6
CSC : NONE
apn settings for t-mobile
i flashed the rom from coderom 2
the problem is probably down to me, but have tried loads of stuff, from flashing just a csc file to checking and re checking apn settings and smsc number but still not able to text while 3g is on.
anybody know have any ideas thanks
anyone got a clue then. its doing my head in. think i narrowed it down to the modem file as i went back to stock froyo 2.2.1 which i can text while 3g is on and played around with csc files which no matter which one i chose as long as the apn settings were right i could still send a text.

Looking at the *#1234# thingy , how can you have NO csc ?
Infused with CM7 for Galaxy Ace using XDA App
not sure really. flashed from coderom v2 to fla.sh. i do the *#1234' on the fla.sh rom and its gone. so checked to see if i have a csc file using root exployer. and not one there. so god knows.
but the main problem i have is sending a sms while in 3g, its has happend on all the custom roms that i've tried. so as not alot of people have asked about it then it must be me.
for instance to get from stock froyo 2.2.1
PDA: S5830XWKB7
MODEM: S5830XXKB1
CSC: S5830OXXKB6
to coderom v1 using odin
BOOT: S5830XXKPH
PDA: PDACODEROM
MODEM: S5830XXKPH
CSC: S5830SERKPH
i simply fill all the required fields in odin with the corresponding ones from what i downloaded. apboot to boot, modem to modem ect. is that right?
turned off, insert sim and sd card. reboot then checked apn settings. go to send a text. text comes back as failed. turn data off and it sends.
flash back to stock froyo and it all works again. the only way around it that i've found is using automateit app.
THANKS
This is the same problem with T Mobile. I think it is to do with the CSC I can't find the XEU CSC anywhere.

Hi i have tryed the following XEU SER OXX and all fail while on 3G.. I to have been haunted by this.. Im on orange uk.. I also think it has somthing to do with the modem.. Maybe flashing the modem from froyo and the rest from gingerbread might fix it.. Only other this is if i put an o2 sim in i have no problems at all.. Seem only to bother orange & t-mobile as i think they are now the same..

i think it does have something to do with the modem. i have fla.sh rom running at the mo, which i flashed from coderom v2, did the *#1234' and had no csc code at all. realising from that the only rom, as i've tried a few now, that i have been able to send a sms while 3g has been on was the stock froyo 2.2.1.
so what i've done now is extracted the whole contents of the csc file with 7zip. copied them to my sd card. and using root explorer copied, SW_Configuration (HML) CSCVersion (text) and the csc (Folder) over to /system. rebooted the phone and *#1234# again and now i have a csc which is OXXKB6, which is the one that came with stock. checked by doing *#INFO*IMEI# and it already changed to XEU and now have a list of sales code.
GOT EXCITED AT THIS POINT haha
sent a text and within secs came back as fail.........
tried flashing just the modem but dosnt boot up after. thats if i'm doing it right
odin - ops (cooper) - PHONE (modem) then start.
now i've googled about having a TMU sales code which is T-MOBILE but as i've read you only need this if your phone is branded to T-MOBILE. as my phone is not then i cant seeing this working but will give a go.
is there a way of flashing just a modem. ?????
I dod the same just flashing the modem file and wouldnt boot ither.. I think you need to use all files while flashing.. Boot code csc from ginger and modem from froyo all as same time.. If it work im affrade the SOD would come back but not 100% on that..

no luck im afraid
this is what i've tried: -
stock rom ( S5830XWKB7 ) then flashing gingerbread ( S5830XXKP9 ) ( S5830XXKPH ) ( S5830XWKPT ) ( S5830XWKPKN ) each time starting of with stock rom but every time i flash to any gingerbread i'm unable to send a sms while 3g is on!!!!!!!
need help?????
Did you try flashing with the following files..
BOOT (Gingerbread)
PDA (Gingerbread)
MODEM (Froyo)
CSC (Gingerbread)
Or maybe..
I saw a thread for the orange uk gingerbread rom.. Mayby you could use the MODEM file (as tmobile & orange are the same now).. I will be trying this at some point soon..

Not sure guys. This seem to be a problem for Virgin, T-mobile and Orange users in the UK using SGA with Gingerbread. These companies share networks too, yes? The Virgin Community (self help) has some input from VM staff that suggests that they are aware of the issue and that's why they haven't released GB themselves for SGA - not sure that it's as simple as a quick file replacement to resolve. Apologies if I'm wide of the mark here as I'm new to Android but I would have though that if it was a single file/apk that they would have resolved it quickly?
But what about the leaked polish gingerbread rom for orange.. Wouldnt that not work or are the freq different???

This was posted on the VM Community Forums yesterday on a thread about GB on SGA:
"I am still new to the phone but so far I have had no issues sending texts (getting use to conversation style sms),calling (call quality not as good as my older Tocco) or browsing.
I got the deal on two phones last Thursday and insisted they had the latest gingerbread version. On receipt of the phones I installed Kies and tried a firmware update and received the not supported message. Following firmware version was displayed:
PDA:KPU / PHONE:KP7 / CSC:KP1(VIR)
Without checking the phone itself I called virgin support and couldnt tell me when the firmware would be released -however just before I was about to send them back I checked the "about" on the phone itself and was pleasantly surprised.
The phone itself reports
android 2.3.3
baseband version S5830XWKP7
Kernel version 2.6.35.7-perf-CL48464 [email protected]#1
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKPU
I had also looked into alternative ways to flash the firmware(odin) but I guess this means unless you want to risk bricking the phone folk have to wait for virgin to release it I'm afraid."
Samsung working on a fix.....
Orange have posted this on their site....
"Handsets that currently have Android Gingerbread installed on the device may be having problems sending SMS (Text) messages.
This issue has been highlighted and Samsung are currently working on a resolution which should be available next week (02/10/2011)
As a temporary fix you can follow the below instructions to change your handset from 3G to 2G only which will allow you to send text messages"
So - fingers crossed!

You getting the AT&T branded GS2? Or the International unlocked version? If you're getting the AT&T branded device, you're in the wrong place. If you're getting the AT&T Skyrocket (LTE) model of the GS2, you want to be in the SGH-I727 forum. If you're getting the regular AT&T GS2, you want to be in the SGH-I777 forum.
This forum is for the GT-I9100.
For your own sake, don't even think about using a ROM intended for a phone model that doesn't match yours.

You'll have to try them out to see what works best for you. I'm still on stock KI3 (2.3.5), but I've HEAVILY tweaked it, adding rotation animation, email that bypasses administrator requirements, battery icon with percentage remaining, etc. I considered GingerMod (I used FroyoMod on my Moto Milestone, and liked it; GingerMod is from the same developer), and CM7 (also used on my Milestone), but in the long run decided to stick with stock. But this is a personal preference. All you can do is back your phone up, flash, and experiment for yourself. (FYI, I'm also on AT&T, and have the GT-I9100)

If you have a GT-I9100, you should be able to use any firmware from Intratech's thread. Instructions are in the first post, and official firmwares currently go up to 2.3.6. The only thing 2.3.7 added according to wikipedia is Google Wallet support for the Nexus S 4G. So I wouldn't bother trying to get 2.3.7.
Yes but I'm afraid that some may not be compatible. My usb jig didn't arrive yet. So my baseband version doesn't matter?

I'm fairly certain that it shouldn't matter, no. My baseband is currently XXKI3, personally.
I originally had an XWKE7 firmware, which is for UK. I have flashed to XXKI3, which is for Poland. As long as you have a GT-I9100 (and NOT a GT-I9100G), it shouldn't matter.
Thank you! I would use the thank button but it doesn't exist in this App. :?

Which firmware
Just got an I9100 with 2.3.4, and would like some improvement.
I am on the ATT network in USA.
If I grab just any 2.3.6 firmware, no matter intended for what country, it will give me top HSPA speed here?
What about when I move to France, for example, would I need to flash a different version?
Does baseband version number imply the freq bands supported for each technology?
Sorry about all the questions, just that Kies doesn't like my phone, so I'll need to "go manual"

Sounds good, but I want to go there in 2 steps. The best 2.3.x first.
Its confusing to figure out which is best, when according to the modem thread, none of the listed roms on the rom thread have good power or speed performance.
The 2.3.4 rom I've got now sucks for speed.
If I start experimenting, get hosed and want to roll back, I can't, because I don't see this firmware anywhere:
PDA:I9100XWKH4
Phone/Baseband (modem): I9100XXKH3
CSC: I9100OXXKH2
Maybe I can copy it off my phone before flashing with Odin?
What's the best course of action?
Any help appreciated...

Waiting to try the Rogers ICS when I get home. Looking forward to a hybrid/tablet ROM where we can use our Samsung native S-Pen apps and widgets.
I upgraded my co-worker's Note to Electron's UCLF6 stock rom just a week ago.
CWM'd back to stock, had to CWM flash the stock GB Rogers modem in order to get the upgrade to register.
He's wasting his data doing the upgrade now. Luckily it's only 251MB.
Maybe I'll hitup a Timmy's or Mc'D's at lunch and upgrade to Rogers ICS.

No soup for me so far
I have a Rogers I717R, unlocked and rooted via the Odin method and am on Bell LTE and flashed with a Bell radio.
I have clicked on "Update" numerous times now, but it keeps coming back to me with "No update available"...is it because I'm rooted with CWM and running a Bell radio on the Rogers firmware?
I downloaded and installed Kies, but it says that my device doesn't support firmware updates via Kies or something to that effect... ;-(
I don't mind losing root (have to use that POS GOOD for Enterprise software for work), but I'm not sure what the issue is here or how best to address it. Do I have to reflash the original, untouched Rogers I717R firmware and radio via Odin to get the ICS update?
Thanks,

May I ask where you got the "stock" Rogers CWM modem to flash? None of the links that I have found so far through searching through the forums are still valid
Do you think I have to flash back to stock Rogers firmware and if I do, will I lose all my data? That would be a bummer...

Probably a stupid question, but *how* did you use Kies to update? I get the prompt about "device is not supported for updates" or something to that effect in Kies
Update: nevermind, I found a CWM flashable Rogers modem and this time when I fired up Kies, it prompted me with an update to firmware.
I had to do this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657262
Followed those steps to get mine to successfully update OTA.
Guess with the custom roms something got screwed up.
I had to roll back to the original gingerbread Roger rom. When this was done the update happened flawlessly.
Once rooted it works like a charm.

Thats the correct app drawer for official ics. It just looks like that that due to touchwiz. If you dont like it then use a different launcher.

Hello,
I've done some searching and have seen some with the same issue. When I go to update it says:
"Failed to update firmware due to network or server problem. Try update update.. or try using kies."
Message started out of the blue a couple weeks ago.
Kies says I'm up to date. Tried through Mac and PC
Went to recovery and cleared cache and tried again. Saw that advised on another forum. Tried on 3G and different wifi networks. Possibly Samsung server error, but strange it lasted for weeks?
Baseband is I9300BULF1. Not rooted or anything.
This is my first Android. Mainly trying to isolate if an update is available or not and if there is a problem how to resolve.
just wondering if kies is up to date? Worth a check, personally I never use that rubbish, Odin for me!
thanks for reply.
I had checked and made sure Kies was up to date. I mainly use Mac, had just downloaded a version for PC, but made sure was latest version.
From what I see there are different versions based on region, etc.. Not sure if/how to tell what the latest version should be.
Latest firmware to flash is LG9 firmware.
It doesn't matter where you are, you can still flash it.
Go to samfirmware.com and you'll find the latest and you can flash it via Odin, way easier than that ota nonsense.
I've had 6 android phones and never once have I waited for an ota.

looking up info on odin as well. Looks like that's PC only program, but no problem.
Going to give this a go tonight.

Lg8 is the same but European version I think so depending where you are it may be advisable to flash that, I'm fairly certain lg9 is the Asian version of lg8 so may not have your csc if you aren't Asian?

Yes, good point.
All custom roms are based on lg9 but then again they are all multi csc.
At the end of the day the csc doesn't really matter, its only related to carrier/location based bloat and crapware.

It won't do any damage to your phone if it is the intl version, it just may not be optimized for your particular network (HD voice, fast dormancy) and on the other hand it may be just fine.
tbh there is no official firmware for the intl s3 on American networks.
In fact there is a thread here for setting up the intl version on at&t by ceo.mtcl, look it up.
It won't do any harm to your phone tho, I'm in Ireland running a custom rom and its lg9.
