Okay so I unlocked my galaxy note just by using a non accepted sim. And I figured it was good since it said unlock was successful. However I didnt test it. I then flashed ICS clc5 leak and a tmobile baseband. No Go... baseband unknown. So I wiped and reinstalled ICS. I ended up with a baseband but also an evil little circle at the top with a line through it. I though well hmmm... I gave up and odined pure stock with a baseband but still no signal. The signal came in and dropped after seconds when I turned it on. I added a new APN still nothing.
I just want to get this working with att or not and I am beat.
I have no signal here is my system complete stock.
ANDROID 2.3.6
base band 1717UCLA1
kernel 2.6.35.11
build number GINGERBREAD.UCLA1
Edit: So much for questions and answers....

Hi, ive got an HTC Sensation 4G
Carrier: T Mobile
I recently flashed an updated version of the firmware required to use ICS ROms wtf.
Now my baseband version stays unknown and imei is gone.
Is there anyway to get it back without sending it back to tmobile?
HI Currently my Photon is in 2.3.5 version.
I have rooted and unlocked the Bootloader also but I faced one big problem in installing CM9 and CM10.
If I upgrade from 2.3.5 to Cm9 (4.0) or Cm10 (4.1).. then the phone works fine but the main thing "IMEI, Serial Number, Phone Number, Network" and many phone related info are showing "unknown" ...... So i rollbacked to 2.3.5 now the phone is in normal.....
Same like If i downgrade to older version from 2.3.5 to 2.3.4 then also the same problem which is raised in the CM9 or Cm10 upgrades.
I'm totally Confused ... now only 2.3.5 is binded to my mobile no other way to upgrade it seems... Only way is to wait for Official update,... But i don't think i'll get Official.....
Note: My photon using in India... GSM mobile network is (AIRTEL)
So please some one help me to upgrade my Photon .............. pls
I turned my phone on yestetday lunchtime (4/7/2013) and once it had booted I had an onscreen message sayong that an update had download and was ready to install. I chose the "later" option, went to settings>about device>software update, and it said the same thing. I installed it, thinking it might be JB 4.2.2, but once it had installed there was nothing different about my phone and it is still running 4.1.2. When ever I search for it I keep getting french and greek websites, the fact that I cant find an english site or explanation is rather unnerving.
I am running an un rooted S3, from U.K t-mobile.

I posted this is the wrong section earlier, so am re posting it here. In the other thread someone said it sounds like the latest update for my phone/carrier, bit there is absolutely nothing new after installing this.
Samsung release many updates based on Android 4.1.2
Most updates do not change the Android Version. They change the Samsung Build number. You have been updated to XXEMF1, which is an update from June. Most updates don't introduce new features. They introduce bug fixes. Samsung tend to introduce new features when they introduce new Android versions, to keep them in line.
It's normal, basically it's just small bug fix and patch, only between android version update, like 4.0 to 4.1, or 4.1 to 4.2 you may see the significantly difference. Besides Samsung never gives changelog so only thing you can do is figure out yourself or reading other's comments, but something it's gonna be like, " oh, the dialer open up is 0.1 second faster than previous version " or somewhere translation has been updated... blah blah blah

Oh ok, thanks alot to both of you.
Im a bit of a noob when it comes to stuff like this, so the lack of info or being able to find it online freaked me out a bit.
Thanks again.

Apologies for hijacking your post OP.
I just bought a samsung s3 from someone and its the NON LTE version (GT-I9300) and its android version 4.1.2
Baseband Ver is I9300BVEMF1 and build number is JZO54K.I9300XXEMF1
The phone shows Orange logo so pretty sure its locked on orange (also the seller is on Orange network). I am on O2 UK so need it to be unlocked. I have tried this method in the past and has worked with an S3 LTE Version (http://www.valuewalk.com/2012/12/how-to-unlock-galaxy-s3-and-galaxy-note-2-for-free/) however this time, there is no UMTS Menu (Step 1)
While searching about it, i read on XDA that it needs to be rooted to be able to see that UMTS menu ? (even though i dont remember doing that with the S3 with LTE )
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Just rooted and tried again. Still the UMTS menu is not there. straight goes to Debug Menu
EDIT 2: Used GalaxSim Service and paid £2.59 to unlock. Wish I had found out about it earlier. Would have saved me a lot of time!

Just out of curiousity, how did you get the device to accept code input? I have been struggling with a like device locked to the Mexican Telcel network. When I boot the device with an off network SIM it should pop up with a screen that says "Input Unlock Code" or something to that effect, but it simply says "Network Lock" and the only button on the screen says "Dismiss". It is not allowing me to put in the unlock code that I have purchased. Also, my UMTS option is missing from the first screen of the service menu as well.
I've got bad reception. At home sometimes no bars, no reception, or sometimes 1-2 bars. If I get to a window I get 2 bars tops.
Outside it sometimes disconnects and I have to reboot.
Drives me nuts.
I have another older smartphone at home that's 3g - same carrier - full reception.
In Neo V Battery life is bad. At "about phone" I see it changing all the time, I didn't have the chance to check outside, but due the constant disconnections outside I figure it's also changing.
Is changing the baseband the way to go?
The original BB was 4.1.B.0.587 baseband (77)
Now it appears as 8x55a-aaabqoazm-203028g-77 (under "about phone")
I'm running CM10 nightlies
If I put the wrong baseband can it brick the phone?
Should I flash 4.1.B.0.587 baseband (77) on cm10 (JB)?
Any better baseband than 77 (I'm Israeli on a 850/2100 network)?
Lots of question, you don't have to answer all, any help would be greatly appreciated.

As u say it appears on 77 in about phone, its already on 77 baseband of .587 firmware.. I don't know whether you have got the update of .13 firmware in your place but as far as i know, there isn't any ftf file available for .13 firmware.. The new firmware comes with a new baseband too.. So till then 77 is latest.. just give it a check though.. I told you whatever i knew..

@veepe:
Try different SIM Cards if they give you full reception, it maybe the problem with your SIM Card.
If this doesn't work,
Try reinstalling everything from the scratch. First, Flash ICS .ftf using Flashtool & start your phone.
Check if you have proper network.
If there is proper network, then flash kernel from CM10 zip, Install ROM via Recovery, Then check your network.
Now if the problem occurs, it means the problem is with the CM10 ROM. Then you'll have to wait until it's fixed & stay on stock ROM or try other ROMs...

well, i tried everything - all basebands, flashed different stock firmwares with original kernels for both mt11i and mt11a (mine) - no improvement.
It's definitely something in the phone, the sim works great in another phone. Tried 3 diff sims in the problematic phone.
I'm thinking it maybe related to a water damage I had a few months ago. I went to a lab right after that for a preventive treatment, maybe something's wrong with the hardware.
If changing softwares isn't working, there is a high chance that this is a hardware problem. You should get it repaired then...
Good Luck!
Hello!
I just updated my 925I (Mexico-Telcel) from MM to N and found out that after that I get no carrier connectivity, wifi works fine. Update was done through smart switch and noticed that imei doesn't match with the one on the back of the phone.
I've always tinkered with my phones and the one time I didn't, it bit me in the ass.
Anyway,
Baseband version is G925IDVU3FQF3
Build Number is NRD90M.G925IDVU3FQF7
I've been reading and reading but so far, I don't know if I can flash an unbloated version (925F) or not or if I can flash only the MM modem in hopes for the problem to be solved.
Any advice will be appreciated.
