Network Problems after upgrading to ICS - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In summary I have upgraded to ICS (Official), but am unable to connect to my carrier network and some of the OS seems missing; If I long press my power button I don't get the device menu, it just turns off.
Full details:
I am on a South African network, and the ROM shipped with my device is I9100XWKI4_I9100OJCKI1_XFA. I downloaded two variants of the new ICS ROM from link;XWLP7 & XXLPQ and I downloaded the latest Odin.
From there I followed these instructions:
Extract the firmware
Open the included Odin
Put your device in Recovery MODE (Home + Volume up + Power)
Wipe Data/Factory reset
Wipe Cache
Take Out Your battery & put it back in
Put your device into Download MODE (Home + Volume Down + Power)
Click PDA and select *.tar.md5
Then finally click START!
On both ROMs, following the PASS message my phone rebooted, and everything starts up perfectly; Applications get installed and so on. Only one big problem, I can not connect to a carrier network (The OS also never prompts me to unlock my SIM card). When I bring down my network menu (swipe down) it says Emergency Calls Only. I then figured I would try and manually select a carrier network, so I went and scanned for networks and selected Vodacom. I then get an error message saying "Error cannot connect". I also don't seem to have access to the menu one gets when holding down the power button, if I hold it down the device shuts down; no silent, power off, etc menu.
This happens with both of the rom variants I have. After trying everything in my limited knowledge I gave up, found and downloaded the old I9100XWKI4_I9100OJCKI1_XFA rom. I am now back on that rom and everything is working fine.
I have also tried following these steps: link
Except I restore factory settings and wipe cache before deploying the ROM. I then sought the help of a fellow Droid user from the South African forums, who suggested that I flash onto the old Dutch firmware (GT-I9100_XEN_I9100XWKJ3_I9100XENKJ1_I9100XXKI4). After confirming it worked and I could get onto the network, I took the SIM out and did a proper firmware upgrade via KIES. The upgrade went in without any issue, BUT after the upgrade the problem was still there; no carrier network, no power button menu.
After further fiddling I figured that the OS not asking for my SIM PIN must be one of the causes of my issue, so I went to my settings and turned SIM security off and on. After doing so, suddenly the device hopped onto my carrier network. This did not solve the issue though, as I have to do this after every reboot.
I have checked to ensure my IMEI number is fine, and it is 100%. When I flashed to the XEO version, I could get into the *#272* menu and change my CSC. After doing so, problem was still there.
I am now totally confused as to what on earth could be causing the issue, especially considering other people on the same device with the same carrier seem to be able to flash without hassle - does anyone have any suggestions, or ideas? Come on XDA!

Try checking the efs\imei folder to see if the keystr file is there. If its not, make one with the value 1. Search the q and a forum for more info

Can this be done without rooting my phone?
EDIT: Required rooting. Was the missing "keystr" file in my EFS/IMEI directory (link)

[Q] Whats the difference between S5830OXXKP7 and S5830XEUKP1

I was looking at samfirmware today and noticed this file S5830XWKPN_S5830XWKP6_S5830XEUKP1.
I already have S5830XWKPN_S5830XWKP6_S5830OXXKP7 installed. I am based in UK and use Orange.
It is a one package item and I was wondering which one should I be using.
Both are dated july 13, and hence my confusion?
I am also on ORANGE UK and i have tryed S5830XXKPH & S5830XXKPJ and for some reason on both i am unable to send text messages while using 3G/H network but can with G/E network but can always receive text..
I am yet to try S5830XWKPKN with CSC:S5830OXXKP7.
I will be trying the OXX CSC as the froyo that was pre-installed was using a OXX CSC..
So hopfully it will fix my problem..
I had no issues with S5830XWKPKN with CSC:S5830OXXKP7 for texting 3g/H or E/G but the initial language when installed defaulted Spanish If I remember correctly.
The XEU version is UK specific and Im not sure if it different apart from that - But I have decided to install it anyway and create a nandroid. If I have problems I can nandroid back to XXXKP7.
Good luck in your endeavours and I will post if I have issues.
Text messaging is working fine with the S5830XWKPN_S5830XWKP6_S5830XEUKP1 file. 3G appear more efficient and signal quality is a LOT better. Shall be using this version of the two files.
Hope this helps.
What confused me even more with my issue is that i try my partners O2 sim and there was no textong problem i thn tryed my dads ORANG UK sim and the issue was back.. So teading that you are having no problems with text i will try this software.. One question i do have is the file i got from samfirmware was a onepackage flash file..
Can you please tell me were you got your flash files and what version of odin you used to flash yours to KPKN..
THANK YOU..
got it from samfirmware.com today - just happened to notice the second KPN file near the bottom of the list.
Both are one package files.
I used Odin4.38 and then
1. Selected copper_v1.00.ops as the OPS file.
2. Ticked the one package button to the left of the OPS selection. This ungrays the one package button at the bottom of the list.
3. Selected the one package button and browsed to the tar file of the download.
4. Put the phone into download mode using Power, Menu and bottom of volume button.
5. When the phone boots up with the yellow download text - connect the USB cable - this should cause the first sqaure at the top to turn yellow and report a com port number.
6. Only when you have a yellow square and com port - then press start.
The phone will download the software and about halfway through the download the phone will restart - DO NOT UNPLUG IT - let the phone boot up and only unplug it when the yellow square has turned BLUE and post the word PASS.
If you try to unplug before the PASS flag - you will probably brick the phone.
The whole process took about 6 minutes on my setup.
Sorry for been detailed - but I dont know your experience level and did not wish you to damage your phone.
I have just flashed S5830XWKPN_S5830XWKP6_S5830XEUKP1 and my text problem still haunts me..
I can still send with G/E..
But not with 3G/H..
And i can still receive on both??
Gonna try flashing the csc from the froyo it came with, but using all othe gingerbread files..
This is strange - my phone is unlocked, Im assuming yours is because u tried your GF O2 sim.
Im on monthly racoon with internet package add on. Could it be a Orange setting issue?
Yeah i got my phone from phones4u..
I have had them send me the latest settings to my sim..
I spoke to orange today and that stated all there sims are the same its whats on there system thats different so im so confuzed..
I thought it migh be the age of the sim but its only a few months old.. Gonna get orange to send me a new one anyway just incase..
Ill let you no what happends..

[Q] No phone/sms, data ok and IMEI ok

Hello,
After searching about 10 pages & search engine i haven't find exactly same problem as mine but i think i'm not the only one who had this problem...
I saw that all guys having same problem as me have an IMEI problem with a file on /efs, which is not my case for the IMEI
Problem : no phone, no sms, all data is OK. is someone calls me it rings busy.
Here's what i tried
- My SIM on another S2 = everything OK, the other S2 sim on my phone gives same problem.
- Many ROMs official or non official (also a release using pit+pda+phone+csc), without solving my problem
- Using the appli GSII_Repair but i can' t download (message appears 2mins after click on install, from PC or from market)
- Phone is operator free and with no signal problem.
- At the moment i just put an official rom (nothing more) with baseband i9100xxki3, kernel 2.6.35.[email protected] #2, Version number gingerbread.xxki3. Network State=Connected, IMEI= same as behind battery, IMEISV=01
I bought the phone to someone living 150km from me and when i wanted to test it...i locked my SIM (and no puk code with me) so i bought it for not having done the 300km for nothing...and i can't use it since a week i'm trying & reading things everywhere on the net but i think here is the best place, great members, great place, and great roms i used on my HD2 before the USB connector broke. The guy to wich i bought the phone kept it a month and have no idea to what has been done the phone
So help needed....Thanks

Have you already tried to do a factory reset?
Shut down the phone, reboot into recovery mode (Volume UP + Home + Power, hold the keys until the recovery menu appears), choose factory reset and then reboot the phone.
If that does not help, you could try to flash a newer stock ROM, such as XWKJ3.
Have a look at Intratech's Official Firmware thread here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
If that does not help either, it could be a hardware issue.
Hope that it is not.
Good luck !
I already have done both, and i just have done the 2 things again just in cas
Factory reset => still having problem
XWKJ3 => i'm getting permanently a message like com.android.phone crashed, i now remember why i changed for an older ROM
Sounds like flashing many roms syndrome .
Also the no no of using PIT files .
Suggestion
Download full stock rom .
Backup all data .
Go to recovery Mounts and storage Format > Cache System Data > SD Card .
No boot now clean empty phone .
Download mode and via Odin flash stock rom .
Test if still faulty return under warranty .
jje
I dont want to be a negative ned and throw a spanner in the works here but if the IMEI is intact and the phone was bought second hand(and no offence with what im about to say) but is it possible that the IMEI has been blocked cos yourve unknowingly bought a stolen phoneIt just seems strange that only calls and sms are blocked with the IMEI no being changed.Sorry if ive miss understood the question.No offence intended.

SG2 after Kernel Flash Homebutton gone, and Hardreset

Hi folks,
i'm and european (german) with an prepaid, simlock-free net-free SG2 device.
At the moment i am in New York City. First - everything was alright. Only GPS Signal couldn't be found, i downloaded much stuff - cleared A-GPS - nothing worked for me. So i tried to flash another Kernel.
Problem - i'm on a Mac. I did it with Heimdall and this instruction: http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-att-galaxy-s2-on-mac-or-linux-sgh-i777/
After that (worked) - GPS also worked - but my Home-Button now is like "dead". It doesn't react. No Hardware issue. It must be the kernel i flashed to it. I tried to flash another kernel with the same command :
sudo heimdall flash --kernel zImage
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but the second time flashing a kernel didn't work for me.
the boot screen now has a yellow sign with an "!" in it.
So i chose a "Hard reset" in the Privacy Settings of Android 2.3.4.
Now my Home-Button doesn't work and i can't step through the initial android setup process .... because my Home-Button doesn't work.
How do i fix this? Please help me! I'm on vacation and i need the GPS later for Florida trip with car.
Tell me how i can read out Kernel / Firmware / Baseband without running a system (w/o home button usage) or how to get the original kernel working again.
i need you guys !
I use Mac OS X Lion.
when i now want to flash a kernel this error appears in terminal running heimdall
Initialising connection...
Detecting device...

Basisband: I9100XXKI4
Kernel-Version: 2.6.35.7_ZedomaxStockKernel [email protected] #21
Buildnumber: GINGERBREAD.XWLA4
android 2.3.6. now running.
what to do next ?
i can't fix that kernel .... heimdall still complains even after reinstalling with sudo open heimdall command
Hi mate, try this...
Turn OFF your phone, remove the battery, leave it for about 3 mins, place the batt again, dont turn ON...! try if you can enter into the Recovery Mode of the S2 by holding the Volume Up + Home + Power buttons of your Galaxy until the Samsung logo comes up.
After that you can try to do a WIPE of the "Cache" and "Dalvik Cache", not Data or you gonna lose anything, and restart..
thanks for the reply dude.
I can't do a wipe cache or wipe dalvik cache without a working home-button. i can't choose in the menu........
the problem is the firmware. my home -button doesn't work. How do i solve this ?
Try select with the power menu button .
jje
power button selection doesn't work. the menu is disappearing. by pressing power button again menu appears again.
can't access "advanced"
now i'm going to staples.... fixing that **** with odin -.- wish me luck
please send me some kernels here with tutorial what to do in odin.
i need that help
same happains to be i oden the stock roms, custom roms but no use, home button is gone
@OP, you've flashed something meant for the SGH-I777 on your GT-I9100. Just flash a stock ROM for the correct device.
There is an easy fix. Use a USB jig to get into download mode. Then flash again with heimdall but this time use a i9100 kernel/ROM
SO HARDCORE
****ing finally did it in download-mode and with RIGHT firmware from sammobile AND the other Mac from my brother running heimdall the first time on it.
My Specs now:
Modelnumber: GT-I9100
Android-Version:2.3.6
Basisbandversion: I9100XXKI4

Now with my german SIM card from blau.de (e-plus) doesn't get the american cell-phone network connection.
But all Buttons are working again.
Should i flash the "modem" file from "I9100XWLA4_I9100XXKI4_I9100EPLK1" now with heimdall?
Or which basis band protocol/ version is the right one for a working european AND northamerican network.
Please give me some additional information how to flash it and what file / basis band.
so glad now ...... at least i can listen to music or surf on starbucks wifi for orientation in new york ...... i was sooo lost the last days.
PS: i still have the CWM (i think) in vol down & power button mode
ok i tried heimdall again now to flash modem.bin again with MB Pro of my brother
i successfully detected device . then tried heimdall flash --modem modem.bin
error was protocol not detected.
at the second try: error was : like in post 1. claiming interface failed.
haalp please
............... just need a name of baseband and a short how to do
can i update my baseband with CWM ?
there is a "sim card symbol" in the status bar with an "!".
if i want to call somebody there's the message "couldn't connect network"
haalp.
nothing helped.
I still get no mobile network connection.
I have DarkyOTA installed, rooted.

Kernel won't matter for signal quality.
I'm in Oregon, with an I9100, on AT&T. My device currently has XXKI3 firmware, which has XXKI3 modem, and everything works perfectly.
That said, I believe the XXKI4 modem should work as well. Looks like you have the XXKI4 modem, based on post what you have in post 11. But you also say you are trying with a German provider SIM card? Have you tried with an AT&T SIM card?
EDIT to add: Getting a pre-paid SIM from AT&T may end up being cheaper in the long run for you than whatever roaming agreement E-plus has with AT&T anyways. Just food for thought.
EDIT 2: you can always try reflashing XXKI4 modem, or if you want to try it, flash the XXKI3 modem. Modem thread here.
well i know i am roaming. I leave internet shut off. But i want to telephone in Problem situations when i loose my little brother etc.
I have DarkyOTA and i can flash every Firmware (Modem?! -same?!) which is displayed there.
XXKI4 doesn't work either ...... (flashed from DarkyOTA ... root ok ...flash ok ... SU ok ....)
well that SIM Card worked that days until i messed up my phone flashing
lol ****ing **** I9000XWLA4 works

[Q] Lost network after flashing

Hi there!
I know I'm new to here, but not new to android, flashing, etc...
So I recently bought a Galaxy S3 international version (GT-I9300).
I tried to update it's software with KIES, and it stopped on 61%.
KIES tried to flash the newest 4.0.4 (UK) firmware (I9300XXBLG8).
I got the .tar.md5 file out of temporary directory and flashed it manually from ODIN. It booted normally, but i had (have) no network signal. When I turned it on it requested my PIN but when I entered it, the phone doesn't connected to my carrieer's network. My phone is unlocked (checked it with galaxsim), and my IMEI number doesn't changed or corrupted. (Checked under the battery). I live in Hungary and my carrieer is T-Mobile. Tried hard reset, wipe.
Can anybody please help me to solve this problem?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Tom ,
it happened that I had a bit of a similar problem before ( not with my Current International S3 but with my older Xperia neo v ) , after flashing a new ROM something went wrong and I had lost network , tried everything possible but it wouldn't do anything.
my solution was flashing back to my previous ROM , so I highly recommend to you to flash back using your NANDROID backup ( I hope you made one before Flashing... ) or you can try another ROM / or even RE-flash your current ROM but pay more attention this time and make sure nothing goes wrong , and also make sure you do a factory reset , Cache wipe and Dalvik cache Wipe before you flash it just to make sure everything is clean.
I hope this helps , and if I helped you by any way possible don't hesitate and press the Thanks button on your LEFT :good:
Cheers

Bad news, I don't really know what my original firmware was, so I can just try Kangburra's tip... I have 25 min waiting time on hotfile.com, I will the download the latest 4.1.1 unbranded firmware, which has PDA I9300XXDLIH and CSC I9300PHEDLI1. I will write about the results ASAP.

It seems you misunderstood me... I have absolutely no network signal from my carrier :/
Update: Okay the last 4.1.1 mentioned before is not working. Now it sees my network just doesn't register on it. Will try I9300XXALE8_I9300OXFALE5_XEH now.
Found something: All of ROMs installed I'm seem to be reachable. My friend ringed me from his mobile and IT WAS RINGING. If I turned off my mobile, it was not ringing of course. So what the hell is this?

[Q] 4.3 back to 4.1.2 stock firmware

Hey Guys,
First time poster.. so please don't flame me...eh!..LOL
I have searched and better searched without success to my question..
I would like to revert back to JB 4.1.2 on my S3 which is SIM locked to T-Mobile UK, would I need to ROOT the phone beforehand or can I just use Odin and the relevant stock firmware.
would this affect the IMEI and the EFS folder that would make the phone unusable?.
if the procedure is straightforward would I be able to revert back to perhaps 4.1.1 (which would allow me to unlock the SIM myself..).
Hope I have made some sense with my first post..
cheers for any help guys...
4.3 changed your efs to v2. You cannot go back to 4.1.1 unless you have an efs backup from before you upgraded (an efs v1 backup).
Going back to 4.1.2 will work provided you use a firmware EMGx or later (efs v2).
Follow the guides in general stickies on how to flash stock using odin, root afterward with CF auto root.
There are many threads on efs changes, efs 'know this stuff' in particular.

Do you mean this firmware I9300XXEMG4
cheers
cancel all that... I have managed to flash my s3 with the I9300XXEMG4 firmware..... and truth be told I was crapping myself when the phone kept looping on the logo screen.... I did a factory reset and cleared the cache.....all is working.....
just a quick update...
My phone is working fine and dandy with the 4.1.2 stock firmware.... I have also discovered that the SIM is unlocked (or was not locked to begin with), tried a Tesco mobile SIM in it last night and it worked fine, was not asked to input unlocking code for it!
result all round..... :laugh:
You help me too. Thx.
So guys, please explain this to me.
After I did an update to 4.3 the efs was changed. I was ok with that, until my hard drive died and I had lost 4.1.2 backup and so, I can't restore my efs.
The problem is: Can i downgrade to I9300XXEMG4 without problems? I mean, I will not have IMEI and network signal problems? I did flashed some 4.3 roms, but I'm not satisfied with them.
after effect in this downgrading process on my s3
I have upgraded from 4.1.2 XXEMH4 to 4.3 GMJ9 VDI first. liked that very much, display battery backup[battery doctor] was on my phone but drains quickly though in reality with lag issue. i found few things in 4.3:
1. time lag,
2. emulated drive
3. IMEI shows correctly but its SW ver shows 11 instead original 01
there were dozens of good features over above these aforementioned issues.
Sometimes wanted to use Samsung's Indian keyboard, downgraded therefore back to xxemh(4.1.2)..
Problems I found,
a. IMEI shows correctly with original SW version 01 but mobile shuts down suddenly quite frequently.
b. my csc becomes unknown while typing *#1234#
c. Both USB and UART options change to modem every phone boots
d. rooted and found csc folder is missing
e. wifi gpars work but Bluetooth can not be turned ON it becomes gray . sometimes phone hangs when I try to put it ON. it restarts automatically at times.
f. phone lags just like that of 4.3
is there any method settle problems of a., c., e. and f.??

@JJEgan, thanks for the reply and tips!
a. IMEI shows correctly with original SW version 01 but mobile shuts down suddenly quite frequently.
>>>Mobile as in what network or the phone ??
---Mobile is in Vodafone India on my I9300
b. my csc becomes unknown while typing *#1234# [SOLVED]
>. Flash the correct CSC for your network.
--CSC folder has been recovered this way in the process: re-flashed 4.3 (swc) on existing 4.1.2 (xxemh4), sw version of imei changes to version 11 however IMEI remains same, them flashed another itv (4.1.2) as explained in another thread. I lost imei as it becomes 049....
then I flashed back to my country's 4.1.2 (xxemh4). got IMEIand its sw version correctly and my CSC folder also.
EVERYTIME I FLASH I DO FACTORY RESET AND CACHE WIPE compulsorily FROM stock recovery 3(e)
--------------------------
I HAVE BEEN READING A LOT SINCE LAST FIVE DAYS, basics of flashing I guess I know as i have been doing this since 2009[Samsung Bada on GT-S6353]. I use only stock recovery and stock roms. my problems now reduce to:
1. Bluetooth non functional- can not make it ON. When I slide Bluetooth button to make it ON, phone either hangs and restarts automatically or Bluetooth button goes back original OFF position
2. phone's utilities reset to modem automatically [both UART & USB]. I check this when my s3 can not connect to pc or kies to reload my contacts on s3. This is checked by typing *#7284# and I need to set it UART => MODEM & USB => PDA. But these two setting reset to MODEM automatically whenever I check at later stage [when i found pc doesn't recognise s3].
3. phone lags just like 4.3 even in 4.1.2 [xxemh4]
I will do flashing again! Thanks once again!
=================
Flashing done! It doesn't help me

I am also facing same issues.
Thanks and regards
