Hi XDAns
M forced to create a new topic.
I am facing a strange problem since morning there's no network on my Galaxy S2 since morning its a unlocked version not rooted just updated to 2.3.6.
Tried changing SIM but no network
SIM is working I have tried in diffrent fone.
I have switched off the phone 10 times have removed battery twice for half n hour nothing happening.
The phobne is working no problems in anythings WIFi _ Bluetooth everything is perfect
Just the network isn't coming.
I was listening music through headphones tried inserting the hwadphpnes jack hard twice _ thrice since the voice was crackling.
By any chance is the network IC located near this inserting point
Any idea what is causing this problem???
Please Help Me!!

I tried searching the forum and saw this problem can be of somethinv EFS I guess no IMEI
I just tried *#06# and saw there was no IMEI code on screen.
It just showed IMEI. Written and there was no code on it
Guys is this a big problem?? Please help me
What should I do no rooting please I just don't know how to do that and frankly speaking I don't want to root my phone
Ohhhh God ..!!

Contact your operator/Samsung then. I don't understand why your first thought would be to post here for support, especially if you don't want to do the one thing which might give you a chance of self-repair.

I had the same probleme few months ago. I fixed it with a app called GSII_Repair.
You can find it on Google Play
But you have to be rooted to use this app

I did that.
It didn't help it was talking about some busybox app
That also I downloaded it didn't work it said your phone should be rooted.

Yes your phone has to be rooted to make it work.
It was the only solution to make my phone work again.

Shall I give it to samsung people
My fone is just 7 months old.
I have the bill.
.
I am not at all confident on samsung reps.
Theyll just try and update it
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA

No root and stock firmware then its service centre .
Other choice is to root and void warranty and spend weeks trying to fix as you have no EFS backup etc etc .
jje

Got it fixed from samsung only
They checked the motherboard which was fine.
Than they just updated the Software and said they were writting back IMEI.
Which helped me .
Topic can be moved or closed
Thanks ppl

Hi ijust bought a razr on ebay wich came from PuertoRico(claro) well when i powerd it on every time i tried to use it after 5 mine the phone freezes and reboot. I tried fastboot and changerthe room still reboot know i used a nandroid from a thread here and bump it to 2.3.6 but still the same is this harrowing to hardw assessed

Make sure u have full batery
Do a RSD lite with this ROM

Well I appreciate your help but has of right know I have decided that the phone no longer works. Am uploading a little video so you can see what I mean. I change different roms and same issue. If when the phone reboot i don't touch it and leave it lock it last hour with out reboot. if i unlock it and browse around and open app tray it last 1 min 12 second, using and app lasted 47 second, trying to browse the internet lasted 35 seconds. Is there any way to make the device run in one core to see if that the problem or and app to check hardware failure. thanks
Even I faced the same problem with my first Razr!! But I was lucky enough to get replaced by the phone dealer them itself.I had the phone for a day and it kept restarting every few seconds or minutes.

You are the owner of a motorola device, this should be enough.
If they say you have brocken your razr you still can ask then to fix it for a price.
Or fight a law suite over there:
To do that you'll need to demonstrate ownership. They are responsible to demonstrate this is not a hardware defective razr.
For ethics issues, I can't tell you more than that, ask a local lawer.

Having same problem here: constant freezing just out of the box, no apps installed.
Can't use the phone for more than 2 min.
I have searched many forums and tried some things, but don't wanna root it, as it is my father's phone from work.
Will tell him to ask for a replacement and post here in the future.
But sad to know many others are having problems with a phone just out of the oven. Shame on you, Motorola!!

Hardbricked Galaxy s3

Okay, Im an ass so I say that up front. I flashed a bad kernel and I hardbricked my 5 day old galaxy s3 fro Tmobile. I took it to the local repair place that does JTAG repairs, which btw, does not work on the weekends. according to them the JTAG'ing takes 40 hours which I think is more because I kept calling and seeing if the phone was showing any signs of life. Anyone know how long the actual JTAG procedure actually takes cause 40 hours seems like a long time to me. Even after they said there was no guarantee that it would work and bring my phone back from the dead.
I am not new to rooting or flashing roms and kernels and things of that nature. So for the record I did not read first about bad kernels floating about so again Im an ass.
First mistake was flashing anything from this forum, this is for the international version ONLY.
Secondly a jtag should bring it back to life.
I'm not sure of the timeframe but 40 hours seems like a lot of time to do anything.

Could you describe how exactly you hardbricked your phone? As far as I know hardbricking is pretty much impossible on the s3 and probably extremely rare (this is the first case I've heard about it).

A kernel won't hardbrick a phone. If you flash a correct kernel it should boot. A way to brick it is to flash a wrong firmware from here. Cause the first thing being flashed on a firmware with odin is bootloader. Then you will have an expensive paperweight.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
afaik s3 has separate kernel and recovery where flashing a kernel dosent touch the recovery , so practically it should not be hard bricked
If I were you I would approach to XDA forum first! where all the " DO DOES " happen!
are you 100% sure its bricked?
I dont really know about it, but from my experience bootloader flash and emmc bug are the only ways to hardbrick S3, flashing wrong kernel should make your phone unbootable, but shouldnt do a **** to your download mode (if flashed right, put under pda in odin), however if you put it under bootloader box, than it might flashed kernel on bootloader partition which deffinatly makes hard brick.

Ok, what I don't really undertand how all people got the idea that he's speaking about the US version. Yes, he said he got it from t-mobile, but if you buy in germany from t-mobile you'll get the international version also.

Why he or she doesn't give us the answer?
Really weird guy.

I bet its not hard bricked, it would just be soft bricked, if the correct firmware is flashed it shud be back to life...

I tried the three combo until my fingers went numb I tried so many cables and computers and then I was like this thing isnt doing ANYTHING no vibration NOTHING. The JTAG didnt take the first time around so now they are still "trying" according to them ofcourse. I tried ODIN but it did not recognize my phone so that was no good. I tried everything I knew to try and that why I finally caved and gave it to the JTAG guys.

[SGS3] very deep sleep and cant wake up

I am not sure this was posted or not, however if it has, please point me to the right direction as I am not able to find it.
Situation:-
Using the phone as per normal. It auto lock or manual lock it. Wanna unlock/wake up the phone it doesnt. This happened once in awhile not sure when as unable to determine the cause as sometimes running a game and I lock it and sometimes lock it without running anything i.e. back to home. To wake up, I reboot the phone by long pressing on/off button. Was using CheckRom ICS... And at one occurance the phone really died on me and unable to reboot no matter what I did. Sent in to SC and got back a new Motherboard.
Now it is happening again. Now in JB 4.1.2 (OmegaRom). The phone just fell in to a deep sleep and cant wake up unless I reboot the phone. I hope I dont get the forever slumber/sudden death situation again.
Anyone can give guidance or advise on how to check what is the matter or anyone having the same experience?
Flash back to stock and check if it occurs. If it does use triangle away and send it back in mate

happened to me too
I don't recall it happened to me while using stock touchwiz roms.
However, since I've moved to AOSP roms (first AOKP M1 and then JellyBam), it happened to me 3 or 4 times now.
Do you get it also on touchwiz roms? Which OmegaRom are you using?
Wich kernel are using my mates? Maybe that is problem, combination firmware and kernel...
Regards
using latest OmegaRom... as mentioned... first happened in CheckROm and even in Wanam...
Was using siyah kernel... so now testing Perseus and see wtr this happened or not...
Just happened when I have monster warlord running and locked it.. when I unlock... it happened again... must be something like not enuf ram or went into deep sleep... very strange indeed. Nevertheless change to Perseus to test out different kernel for now...

Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.vinagre.android.emmc_check&hl=en and post the screenshot. It might be SDS
Same happened with my phone. Go to see what it's up to and suddenly its not responding. The only option is to hold power down until it reboots.
It would also do it on in coming calls and managed to delete a text which arrived shortly before it froze.
Hoped upgrading to the latest firmware would help, didn't. Going without root, nope. Freezing apps in Titanium, still no joy.
Finally this morning I had enough and went for a full wipe. Very little installed but no problems since.
Would suggest doing the same, especially if you plan to sell the phone anyway.

Have the same problem with mine, using the latest wanam stock rom and every now and again the phone will either just restart or lock with the screen off (led notification will keep blinking however).
Just trying the official Vodafone rom now through Odin. If this doesn't solve it I think the phone will have to go back.
To note: issue appeared after installing some root apps. Notably adfree and beats drivers. Anybody else have either installed?

When did it happen? Was it around Wednesday last week? Just thinking that maybe an updated app or something?
I have now updated again using kies with the official 4.1.2. I have no problems with restarts when using the stock apps. I have however had issues with the google servers and now believe this to have been the main reason for the crashes earlier (Christmas new phone activation traffic?).
Out of interest, have you been running adfree or the beats audio driver? I had mine working all day yesterday, installed both and then the hangs started coming back again.
Also worth noting that adfree now states that a newer version is available when loading up, but non exists (that i know of?)

I do run AdFree, and yeah, I saw the notice about the new version - it's a different app entirely... still called AdFree, uninstall the old one, and install the new one. Not sure why they did that.
I'm at a loss - I just reinstalled XELL4, and it's still doing it. Short of doing a full wipe and starting afresh (which I really can't be bothered with), I don't know what else to try. Was working fine up until now.

[Q] GPS not locking satellite

Hi,
I have a Samsung s3 int I9300 and it can see a satellite but will not lock onto them and thus will not work with driving directions on google maps.
I have tested it side by side with an s2 and the s2 pics up a satellite quickly wile the s3 struggles to lock onto one.
My phone has been rooted and had Omega running on it but I have tried many different versions of firmware and also have done a full restore via odin and the 3 files.
It is connected to T-Mobile (EE) Uk and he internet is working perfectly.
Please can someone help me find out if it is a software of hardware error.
If you need any more info please ask and I will prove it straight away.
Thank you all :good:

[Q] How to apply fix for SGS3 'sudden death'

I have just posted a couple of hours ago asking why my new Cyanogenmod 10.2 rom would be freezing, and I think the problem is to do with my eMMC chip. I have one that suffers from the 'sudden death' problem.. So I've posted this in a new thread as it's kinda a different question..
Anyway, Samsung have released a fix, but I can't find any instructions ANYWHERE on how to apply it.
I've found this on the cyanogenmod wiki http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/EMMC_Bugs, but that simply links me to a github repo of the code, with no instructions on how to apply the fix.
Could someone direct me to some instructions, or talk me through how to apply the fix?
Thanks,
Luke
Firstly, Title is misleading. Second. Its not the sudden death chip tat gives u lag. I have the sds chip too and when I ran cm 10.2 I have NO LAG.

Well at the moment, I've only got the initial apps included with Cyanogenmod, and the Google Apps, which I installed through CWM..
I can't even make it into the market to download the eMMC Checker app to see if that is still the problem, as the phone freezes before I'm able to search..

I sure hope not.. Exactly this time last year my phone effectively died.. I woke up one morning and my phone was telling me that I had encryption problems (I had never done anything remotely like encryption on my phone previously), so I had to have my phone sent off, and when I got it back, they said they replaced the motherboard..

It's hard to say exactly when, but it was after having my phone sent off.. I had found that a way to fix it was to reduce the amount of free space on my internal sd card, so I got a dummy file generator app, that nearly filled the sd card, which seemed to stop the problem.. However I am not able to do that now, because the phone freezes before I'm able to search the play store..
I would ring optus (my phone carrier), however now that I've flashed a custom rom, my warranty is void, so they're not going to do anything to help me..

I don't think they will be interested in that though, as I've rooted the phone, and installed a custom rom.. Also, I've had the phone for over 12 months..

Ok cool, I will have a look at that..
I managed to get into the play store and download the eMMC Brickbug Check app, and it's telling me that it's still a problem, so Cyanogenmod 10.2 doesn't have the fix incorporated into it..
I would still like to find how to apply this kernel patch, as I reckon it will definitely help..
CM 10.2 does indeed have the fix incorporated, the checker only checks if you have the chip that's affected and nothing more. It will not tell you if you have a fix applied

I see.. Then that's a bit more concerning that my phone is still freezing. It doesn't do it as much now though, it seems to have 'settled', and now only freezes every now and then.. But if the fix has been applied, I don't see a reason why my phone would freeze at all :/
