Blocked in Flightmode - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone...
I bricked my galaxy S2 HD LTE (SHV-E120L) when I wanted to flash the TeamLeader 1.3 ROM. I managed to have it unbricked, but now I have a modem problem.
The phone is stuck in flightmode, and impossible to disable it.
What do you think I should do now?
Thanks,
Mark

What did you do specifically that blocked it in the first place, aside from trying to install the rom, is that specific rom not compatible with the S2 HD LTE?
I would say reflash a STABLE rom or try flashing a MODEM and see what that does for you, unless you're not sure why it got bricked in the first instance, or you're confident enough that if anything went wrong you can bring it back again

Did you check for your imei number in settings?

Almost got a similar problem here...
phone got struck in flight mode or no mobile network is detected... i dialled in the dialer to make it show the IMEI no... it said IMEI:____________ well nothing
Info: i am on my stock ROM, not rooted nothing... 2.3.6
i uninstalled norton internet security, that's where this problem started... (it actually asked me whether i wanted to renew the norton software, since my 60 days license is got over...)
Thanks in advance!!

Thanks Wezi....
I got the EL bricked because I wanted to flash the TeamLeader ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468998) with Odin. In that process something must have gone wrong because I had an error. And then I made the capital mistake of rebooting the phone. Since then it was bricked.
Is the MODEM part of the TeamLeader ROM or where can I find an adequate modem to flash?
Also, I didn't make a backup of the original efs directory. Stupid, I know.

@bala_gamer:
I didn't make a backup of the efs directory, so the original IMEI is lost I'm afraid.

First thing first, was it working before? Where did you buy it from. Carriers have start blocking phones that are reported stolen or have balance in the account.
What does it say in settings/about phone/status?
Does that number match the one on the back of the phone under the battery?
Could you please explain what you did to get to this point?
Flashed bad modem?
Deleted /efs folder or contents?
Remote unlock error?

It was working before and its not a carrier block as it does not recognize the sim at all to begin with....

I am not too sure.. i got the phone from a friend who has messed it up...
He said he flashed the bell upgrade from Gb to ICS and this happened.....
I doubt it .... anyhow... couple of other things
the function *#06# shows a null/nunll
*#9090# - shows nothing
*#2263# - shows nothing in service menu
Also, *2767*3855# system format doesnt work either....
Rom is working fine... wireless and internet are all functional....
If i go to adb... i can see the efs folder and other partitions...
Well yeah, the efs folder will be there, is just generated a new one, with a generic imei.
As i said earlier, mobiletechvidoes can fix it, but since everything is working perfectly, and you live in Canada, might wanna just not worry about it?
I read the ota Canada ics update had a bad install script. Just get the zip file and flash that.
too late for that, the "damage" has been done, and he is already running it, flashing the zip won't help now.

So any way i can revive the phone back to life?
Had this happen to me a few times on my sgs1.
Only thing that fixed it was flashing older stock rom through Odin. You can try samfirmware to get it or there is a complete set of stock files here in the forum as well.
Good luck.

I suggest that you Private Message the user.
I'm sure he will provide the answer ...
And I hope he posts here as well, as it would help others like yourself ....g
I'm not sure if this would help at all but it might be worth a shot.It creates TEST IMEI's and other stuff through ADB .Maybe it can even retrieve your actual IMEI somehow? Post back in this thread if anything comes of it so other people with problems can follow .

Here's my fix
I had the same problem with IMEI showing null/null....this happened after I flashed new radio band to get 4g on Tmobile for my AT&T Galaxy note. It appears that I had flashed a zip file for new radio that messes up the IMEI number. I have heard that others have just simply re-flashed their Note using other custom roms that has it's own radio band and IMEI number reappears. I simply used Samsung Kies to force most current factory rom into my Note (search how to do that) and it added factory setting to my Note...including all the AT&T stuff but it did unroot my phone....but it fixed the problem and I got my IMEI back....PM me if you have any questions.
To get to download mode when hooked up to Kies: hold down volume down and power at the same time until download mode comes up. And push volume up button once download screen comes up. Hook the phone up to Samsung Kies and click "Tools" and click "Firmware upgrade and initialization".....enter model using caps "SGH-I717" and enter ok....and enter serial number...using caps....and sit tight and wait...

i9300 Unable to connect/register to network!

Hey guys, I'm in desperate need of some assistance here.
I have an international Galaxy S3 i9300, rooted and with CWM.
I flashed Criskelos XXDLH8 ROM yesterday, and I followed the instructions to the dot.
The flash seemed to be problem free.
However, once the phone booted and i was on the new ROM, i tried to make a call, but I kept getting an error message saying "not registered on network".
I instantly freaked out, and wiped my phone+cache, and flashed stock Samsung ICS (XAALE8) via Odin.
The phone booted normally into the stock ICS. But instead of seeing signal bars on the status bar, all I can see now is just a circle with a line through it . :crying:
I did some research on the net, and didn't really find anything to help me, which is why I'm here, seeking ANY help from you guys.
I'm freaked out guys! Any assistance would be SO appreciated! thank you!
don't panic
go settings >wireless and networks more settings > access point names
make sure you have something in there
mine says Vodacom ( internet)
look up apn for your area.
otherwise you can try flashing a different modem for your region or even try another region from here

My IMEI has not changed or been deleted (EFS seems to be intact), in case you were wondering.. hmm...
I have no idea whats wrong with my S3
hmmm try perhaps restoring efs folder from backup
sorry seems like you've tried all my ideas.

My sim card works on my spare phone, so thats not the problem.. do u think it might be an issue with my sim card slot?
I mean, i didnt physically drop the phone or anything, this issue seems to have originated after flashing that custom ROM...
Thanks anyways for your suggestions mate, appreciate everything I really hope someone can help me out here, im kinda lost..Sigh
Im also encountering the same proble. But instead, i have network signal (there are signal bars), but i am un able to send/receive messages and calls. I still have the same IMEI number but my Serial Number became 00000000.

Goodluck mate!

Are you sure the firmware is suitable for your model for your phone's factory? There are at least three regions of producing Galaxy S3 International version. Some final product made in Vietnam and Korea has a lot of problems and need to be changed to the board made in China due to software problem. You should try using the "Firmware Upgrade And Initialization" in the "Tools" in the Samsung KIES 2.5 because it will download the latest official firmware according to your model and serial number and it will wipe your phone at the same time.

I tried to repair using the firmware update and initialization, but I could not find exactly where it is. I could reach a pop-up window saying that if my phone had a problem it would be listed in this window... Not sure if I am doing it correctly.
Do you have any tutorial link/post where I can find the proper instructions for it? I am familiar with odin, but not kies...

You can find this function in your Samsung KIES 2.5 which is the software to be installed in your computer. Then you will see the top bar, one of them is Tools and you will find the function in the Tools menu.

It sounds very much like a locked phone that was unlocked in a suboptimal way
Unless you have the original EFS (on which you might try to do a cleaner unlock) you will be "condemned" to always need a patched modem.
The short story is that network locking is done in a protected/checksumed database in the EFS partition and some older unlocks were not even attempting to keep the database "clean" - they were forcing a flag there but since there was some other check at a later time you need a special "patch" in the GSM modem code - that is located in a different partition and might be a little different from one country/carrier to another. Unfortunately the modem is (usually) updated with major ROM updates, so you have now lost that patch - but you can take a look below for a fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601
The bottom line is that (unless you restore original EFS and do a very clean unlock) you will always have to re-apply the modem after you program a new full ROM!

After I rooted - No signal No IMEI, No baseband and unfortunately no backup either.

With the state of your phone now, if you were to reflash a rom between the two, you would have to flash the odex version because it will have everything stock, while the other deodexed one might have one or two things taken out, I believe.

Could be a bug somewhere, development in this device is still very small and new.
@OP, reflash stock as suggested, might be lucky and get your details back.

Not sure if this is possible but use someones efs img and inject your own imei inside it. i wonder if this would work

I tried doing that on my old device with no luck, but it may work for him.
I had the exact same issue, unfortunately I had no success, I ended up sending my phone back to Telstra and getting a replacement
I have the i9305T from Telstra and I made the mistake of trying to install CF-Root 6.4 for the standard i9300. Once I did that I soft bricked the phone. I have been able to download the Telstra ROM from SamFirmware and install it and be able to get the ROM up and running again. I have lost the ability to connect to the mobile network. I can still use the phone to full capacity and even connect to wifi. I haven't be able to work out a way to repair the mobile network connection.
Can you suggest any ideas?

cool, i'm just waiting to get hold of original Everything Everywhere UK ROM before I do that.
OK, i've triangleaway'd my flash counter.
so now my phone in download mode reads:
Odin mode
Product Name: GT-I9305
Custom Binary Download: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Now, it says samsung official as i used a foreign (to me) firmware from sammobile, i still want to change this to the everything everywhere ROM.
Why does system status still say custom? is it because i still have root? how do i remove it after i install the EE ROM?
The EE rom shouldn't add to the flash counter so i'll be OK to remove root then install it.

i got NFI i was laughing at peeps that had the issue cause i didnt and bam playing games with the missus and it messed up. last thing i installed was my custom SystemUI.apk with minor icon changes. besides that just everyday gaming.
anyhoo im off to bed i need sleep sort this efs stuff out in the morn.
also i read there is a simler problem with a motorola phone that says ....... low battery cant develop or such its a simler issue that samsung phones face! with the IMEI affected tho.

[Q] Unable to connect to network/3g

Hopefully this is the right place for this! My apologies if not.
So, last night I decided to root my new S3 (i9300). I have rooted numerous phones previously including my old S3 (which I regrettably lost!) however im absolutely no expert in this kind of stuff.
I used Odin to flash CWM Touch, then made a backup, installed CWM SuperUser. Backed up the EFS using a tool I found on here.
Then went a head with putting a Rom on. Previously used the Ultima rom on my old s3 which worked great, just fancied trying something different so downloaded and flashed a Chaos rom.
Flashing it went okay, followed the instructions to a T.
Booted into the new rom fine but noticed it wouldn't connect to my mobile network (including 3G).
Decided to restore the backup figuring maybe something went wrong during the install. Got it back to how it was pre-Chaos however still no mobile network.
After reading up a bit, I thought maybe the EFS whatsimajig was corrupted during the flash. I read that a way to tell if this is right is your IMEI number won't be right. So I went and checked the phones Status and saw afew things that seemed a bit strange:
Service state: Out of service
Roaming: Not roaming
Mobile network state: Disconnected
My phone number: Unknown
ERI Version: Not available
IMEI: This displayed my correct IMEI
Finally, I restored the EFS backup I took but it still isn't working!
It also shows that I have signal, but everytime I try to make a phone call it says "Not registered on network"
Hope someone here may be able to help! If you need anymore info I'll provide as much as I can.
Cheers.
You got baseband installed? See if *#1234# says baseband is unknown.
If so flash one.

Im assuming I do. It doesn't say baseband unknown, instead gives me:
AP: i19300XXALF6
CP: i9300XXEMB6
CSC: i9300H3GALF1
Correct baseband / modem for your network . Likewise CSC ???
Restore your original firmware backup .
jje
IF your phone have correct EFS/shows proper IMEI, try this...
Restored my original backup, but still nothing.
Tried flashing a factory firmware as well but still nothing.
Also, after checking the box, the phone I got was a branded 3 phone. (3 being my network carrier) - Didn't realise till now as my previous GS3 was factory unlocked, the insurance company must've replaced it with a 3 branded one!
Does this make any difference?
Anyone?
Literally no idea what else to do now!

If you've tried everything else, I suggest you take it to Service Centre near you. Looks like that fall is to be blamed.
P.S. Please post device related issues in their specific forums. That way you will get faster and better answers! :good:

Thanks for quick reply and sorry for the wrong post,i will take it to service center though i live in island where there is no good service center i need to travel by sea to get to good service center by nextweek thanks once again Regard:good:
I think you've lost your IMEI! here is a guide for recovering it. If you didn't root your phone to void your warranty, it's better to take it to a service center then.

im out of warranty and i took it to service center but they tried without success Due to baseband and imei unknown problem,the guy told me that it is software he flashed it several times but it didn't work,so i have to take it back,i will try the link and give u feed back,thanks for your help
i tried that link but unfortunately it didnt work may be is because i didnt have backup of esf files i missed some of the files like .nv_data i only have nv_data.bak,
So, your SIM card lost contact when the phone hit the floor and then instead of trying to remove the SIM card and put it back in you went and flashed the phone to solve the problem and that resulted in loosing IMEI number?
The Custom Rom you installed didn't make backup of your EFS folder?

yes exactly when the phone hit the floor and then instead of trying to remove the SIM card and put it back in i went and flashed the phone to solve the problem and that resulted in loosing IMEI number, but before i flashed it i made a backup of my rom using twrp but after this crash i restore my rom using the same twrp but my phone hang on booting,i was using ApoloJb_4.8_Extremev2_twrp kernel
the phone is acting very strength now,i found out even when i installed stock rom, my files are still on the phone,i used odin flashed it,please can any one provide link for me on how to fresh install stock rom and clear everything on the phone
How to install stock rom ? Search. This has been covered here thousands of times over the past two years, I'm not about to regurgitate it because you can't be bothered searching. Get a stock rom for your carrier/country from Samfirmware, then read the guides/tutorials stickied near the top of the General section.
If you want this fixed it's going to take a bit off effort on your part, we can't do everything for you.
Have you
1) Try another SIM card?
2) Look at the mobile network setting? Look for any abnormal setting? can search the mobile provider etc?
3) Try to flash another modem driver?

Hi, to add on, maybe you should tried again flashing with different modem/radio. The different ROM that you flashed may be using the same modem/radio and they may not work on your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
This link seems to have mentioned various modem/radio for S2. You may want to try it. You may want to refer to another working S2 and check out what is the working modem/radio working well in your area. Then you flash in the same radio/modem.
If this still does work, it may be really the dropping of your phone has kill some physical part of your phone?

still don't work? strange!
just now i experienced the similar issue like yours, no signal bar. this happen after my phone become no respond to any key press. i have to hard power up through long press. when it power up i then see that there is no signal.
so i quickly go to recovery and flash a Modem/radio that i downloaded earlier.
after flash and it booted with good signal.
but my cause of issue i believe is kernel related as i just flash a dorimanx kernel yesterday.
