Hi
I bought this S3 in Lituania as a "No Signal" phone hoping that it would work in SPAIN.
I have switched it on today, trying with my own sim and after enter the PIN I see "Only emergency calls". I have uptaded it to the 4.1.2 JB but same result.
Checking the locked status I see all OFF. I rooted and installed the Voodoo Unlocked and same result "Unlocked phone" but no network.
The IMEI is the same in the phone than in the back so It doesn´t look like a IMEI issue...
I applied the ariza_v04.zip patch with same result...
I can see the SIM contacts and the phone recognize my SIM number, I mean in settings I can see my phone number...
More info, when I try to select manualy my network, it doesn´t find any!
Could you please help??
Thanks thanks so much!
I have just flashed a new Modem with same result
Any idea???
Why is it sold as a no signal phone ???? Hardware i would guess .

Download a stock rom say the new 4.1.2 then go into recover make all wipes. After you have done, while in recovery move it down to chose from sd and don't click anything. Now hold Power + Volume down + Home all at the same time till you go into download mode connect your phone and flash stock unrooted firmware on your phone..
When finished start the phone if there is no signal then download CF Root which Chainfire made and root your phone and download GetRil from android market and see if your modem is matching it will tell you your recommended modem find and download it. Then match the ril if that doesn't work sorry mate you might have a blocked IMEI or a bad phone..
Try with another SIM.

May be the antenna has any problem?
Any other ideas?
IF you have emergency calls available - that would mean the phone has some network in range. Therefore, I doubt if this is antenna issue.
Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.
Have you tried different SIM cards?
Do emergency calls work? If so your number is blocked. It may be a stolen phone.

Well... news!
I went to the Samsung SAT and... the phone has NO ANTENNA! But not only this, it hasn´t the antenna plug!!
So I guess that if I want to fix it I should:
1- Solder any antenna or any antenna plug and then connect an antenna (too dificult I think...).
2- Find this silicon chip replacement (It´s where the usb dock and the camera conects to). But, where?! I tried but I don´t find it...
Any other idea?
Thanks!!
Can anyone help? Thanks!!

Yes I went and they said that they only can change the whole motherboard as the phone is defective.
The phone is not brand new so they cannot change it for a new one...

You probably bought one of those stolen display ones. They don't have a network chip at all.

Hello there,
A few weeks ago I was trying out different custom roms on my galaxy s3, and I somehow managed to **** something up and my IMEI number got changed to something like 00400001234. I kept getting "Not Regitsrred on Network" error if I tried to make calls. So I took it to a repair shop and paid £25 to get it fixed
It got fixed and the imei number went back to normal - I could make calls again!
I then did efs, nandroid and titanium backups and then flashed foxhound rom, but again I get the "not registered on network" error. So I restored the backup, but it still says the error. I tried a different backup and still it cant connect to network :crying:
What I tried to fix this:
- turning it off for a while then back on
- manually trying to connect to my network
- manually enterring APN details
- ate a bagel
- factory reset / data wipe
- I followed all the guides I could find on this site and used the search function extensively! the last thread i read was this one but the guy couldn't find a solution other than taking it to a shop
I think I have only these options:
1) try to fix it myself maybe flashing a different radio, CSC, or something (?)
2) take it back to repair shop and pay another £25
I read somewhere that the method the shop uses to 'fix' the phone means that you cant install custom roms. is this true?
As you can probably tell, I am a novice at this kinda thing and so it's very frustrating cos I cant understand how to fix this =/
Thankyou
A guess is that you flashed custom rom and either have no CSC wrong CSC or wrong modem for your network . Or EFS folder is damaged .
Possible solution restore original rom via .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1978840
Then test .
jje
so is the imei there?
yes the IMEI on the phone matches the one printed under the battery
thanks for the link. i'm trying to use kies now to fix it, but it's saying my device firmware version is not supported to update via kies. not sure what this means cos i flashed the stock rom already =/
Trying flashing the stock modem if it's not already, I too got same problem and then flashed the stock modem for my rom/country and it worked
Just my experience being a noob to flashing

i would like to try flashing a new modem/csc but i dunno where to find those seperate files. do you have a link to where i can download the unbranded UK one?
ive just flashed another rom with odin (UK unbranded BTU 4.0.4), and now i'm getting a different error. the phone now says 'mobile network not available' and there are no mobile networks showing when i try to search for them. i am no longer seeing the 'not registered to network' error
i'm still getting the error message in kies saying my firmware is not compatible too =/
dunno if this helps, but when i dial *#1234# it shows this information:
AP: I9300XXBLG8
CP: I9300XXLG8
CSC: I9300XABLG8
what does it all mean =S
edit: okay, i've just been down to the store where i originally bought the phone from. i had one of their sales guy snap a picture of the firmware version info screen. for comparison i've included a screenshot of my s3's info:
i.imgur.com/SQ19c17.png
my plan is to try and locate this specific firmware and flash it onto my device in hopes it will fix it =<
does anyone know where i could find this specific firmware?

the console text says it has applied CSC-code "CYO"
ive managed to find the correct firmware now, so that it matches the stock s3, but yet my problem still remains =/ once again it is giving me the 'not registered on network' error
dont know what else to try now =/
maybe the CSC code is incorrect, and changing it would fix my issue?
CSC has nothing to do, since your phone is unlocked. It depends on the network, whether GSM or UMTS.
Try this firmware for the CSC CYO:
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/190153878/49a62fc/I9300XXELLA_I9300OXXELL1_CYO.zip.html
1- Make sure to flash using Odin 3.07. Find it in the forums. To flash, you must enter the download mode. Switch off the phone, then Vol Down + Home + Power.
2- After flashing and rebooting the device, when the logo is shown, remove the battery and reinsert it.
3- Enter the recovery mode using (Vol Up + Home + Power).
4- Choose "Wipe factory settings".
5- Reboot the device.
6- Enjoy.
Being in an area with weak network coverage can cause continuous error like "Not registered on network". Therefore, after flashing, try forcing the network into GSM via "Setting -> More Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode -> GSM Only".
This shall work fine with you
well thanks for trying, but that didn't work either. i followed the steps exactly and i still get 'not registered on network' error =/
this is so frustrating

yes the phone was bought from carphone warehouse (UK) and was already unlocked out of the box
also, no i have not tried another sim
i've just uses kies to find the exact firmware i need (entered the model + serial number) and flashed it... but, still i get 'not registered on network' error, despite having full 5 bars signal
i dont know what else could cause this. the firmware is correct, imei number is correct, everything is back to stock.. so why am i still seeing this error? :crying: ive run out of ideas now! well, unless the 'custom binary counter' stops the phone working if you flash it too many times (???) i really dont know what else to try

BTW, to reset flash counter, root your phone, use TriangleAway, reset flash, then flash the stock firmware again.
thanks for the help man, but ive given up on the phone now.
i've just had a terrible accident. and the phone dropped out of my pocket while i was riding my bicycle on the road. it got run over by a 4 cars, 2 trucks and a bus.

I'm so lucky!
Bought an I9300 s3 on eBay is locked to O2
Vodafone sim
Spoke to O2 no help at all. Call 202?
Doesn't make calls.
I've got an efs backup but from the 4.1.2 current stock.
Seems this won't downgrade to 4.1.1
Odined the stock 4.1.1 no joy. Won't boot.
Cwm an old miui 4.1.1 also no boot.
Odin back to stock unbranded 4.1.2 boots fine. Rooted cwm triangle away. Fine.
Whos is this phone? Apparently not mine.
How to down grade please?
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Super wipe after flashing rom helps.
Downgrade to 4.1.1 probably won't have SDS fix so may kill your phone.
If it doesn't make calls with O2 sim then IMEI may be blocked. It won't make calls on Vodafone, because it's locked to O2.
You have to factory reset if it wont boot.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
So you're saying after cwm the 4.1.1 I should full wipe.
Then the business.
Then flash a safe kernel before upgrading back.
If I just odin the 4.1.2 stock back over surely the brick bug won't activate?
Flash 4.1.1, full wipe. Do your unlocking, flash 4.1.2
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
This went badly wrong.
Flashed stock region correct. 4.1.1
Flashed chainfire cwm root.
To allow wipe
Booted fine.
The fix as follows doesn't work as the final menu still not available.
Just dial the following keys *#197328640#Main Menu[1] UMTS*[1] Debug Screen*[8] Phone Control*[6] Network Lock*Options [3]Perso SHA256 OFF*(after choosing this option, wait about 30 seconds, then go back one step by pressing the Menu button then select Back, now you are in*[6] Network Lock then choose*[4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ ..... wait for a minute then reboot your phone
Even though I didn't execute anything as that menu option isn't there something bad happened.
I installed galaxsimunlock from the play store.
It now says invalid imei.
Glad I backed that up.
Still locked.
The saga continues
I would try an O2 sim before anything to see if the phone actually works or not .
Blocked phone are blocked via IMEI and require the blocking network to remove the block .
Report phone stolen network block IMEI get new phone sell the now blocked phone is fairly typical .
jje
If I buy an unlock code on the Web or at a store will it sort of the blocking from the network?
Don't know anyone with a micro sim on O2.
Thanks for your times
Edit.
I flashed back to 4.1.2 its ok. The baseband doesn't get replaced on downgrade and isn't understood by the older software. There is a post somewhere here about it.
This is what causes the odd error messages in that unlock app. Currently says can't read nv
Unlock code will do nothing if the IMEI is blocked, the phone is useless.
Take it to a phone store, for a small fee they will tell you if it is locked or blocked.

Are you now saying the phone is blocked ???
If so return to the seller / Ebay .
Unlock code will not remove blocked IMEI .
Usual reason for a block is phone is stolen

I agree if it turns out to be blocked I will. It was PayPal so he must be verified.
But I still don't know anyone with a micro sim. Shame they're not all the same size now.
I was just checking ahead of time. I don't want to pay £15 for a code and it not work.
I work weekends so I'll have to wait until Monday.
Thanks everyone you're being very helpful. Much appreciated.
Good news everybody!
We've got a delivery to...
- found someone with an O2 micro sim.
Works fine on O2.
Seems I'll have to go pay for a code online or in one of those seedy little shops.
Seems a shame. As I can alter my /efs backup and presumably restore it back.
If only I knew which file/s to change.
It's not the most obvious one that contains only three letters O2U
Unless galaxsimunlock doesn't restore properly.

I agree galaxsim unlock would be great. But as it now flashes a red bar
"Unable to read nv data"
And offers no option to unlock or pay. Cos it says in the help that it doesnt know it can unlock the phone.
I'll have to wait for an upgrade.
I recently rooted my i527 then unlocked it for use on T-Mobile, And it was working just fine, Getting Signal and EDGE, So earlier this morning I took out my sim card and rebooted the phone a few times, Changing the APN from epc.tmobile.com to fast.tmobile.com thinking that was going to get me from going from EDGE to 4G or LTE... Yeah Right! Little did I know, It requires a lot more than just changing the APN.. But thats beside the point.
Anyway, While I was taking my sim out and rebooting, After once or twice of doing this, The phone would not come up with T-Mobile signal AT ALL. After a while of just blankness it would pick up What Im guessing is WCDMA signal or something, But not T-Mobile Active signal like it was doing just fine before. So after 20 or so reboots (thinking that was the problem), And looking around, I noticed that the phone is not issuing a IMEI number. Not in settings, and not *#06# either. The IMEI number has been lost. When I go to settings to view it in About Device it just says "Unknown". I'm assuming this is my problem, Once I get the phones IMEI number back, It will pick up T-Mobile signal again.
At the beginning of this, I was simply trying to get high speed data on the device.. Now I can't even make and receive phone calls. :crying: Any help on how to recover the IMEI would be great, and highly appreciated.
Thanks

If you still have the unlock code try reseting the phone using kies... then see if your imei comes back..
Used ODIN to install correct ROM. This might help.
Get your officla ROM from http://www.sammobile.com/

SamMobile still doesn't have AT&T sgh-i527 firmware. Use kies to recover your phone or odin with the posted firmware on this forum. Kies would be the safest.

You will need Microsoft .NET Framework v4.0 installed on your computer Use efs professional on your computer found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546
make sure you have root and install busybox on phone. run the EFS Professional exe file from the downloaded file from link i posted there will be a pop up window with three options pick the efs professional tab give it time to connect you will need to give permission on phone for adb if all done right it will say ready on program. across top of the program there will be four tabs click the qualcomm tab now there will be more options click on qualcomm nv tools tab let it connect. now there will be a new window for qualcomm nv tools hit the connect button now you will see your imei at bottom if your imei is not there put it in imei box and then click the write tab. hope this helps.
Hi to all on xda!
I have recently bought GT-I9300 from friend. When he wanted to sell to me he updated to 4.1.2 stock rom but after update he got error no sim. Now i'm trying to fix it for me. I don't know what version was before but now is XXEMG4. I've checked everything on phone and everything is fine (imei, s/n, wifi, gps..). I done update via odin once again and that pass well but the problem stays. I think maybe sim card get locked. I read over forum that i can unlock sim via *#197328640# but when i select [6] NETWORK LOCK i get error (menu not exist..). I read that i need 4.1.1 stock for this command and if this is xxemg4 update efs is v2 so i can't go back to 4.1.1, right? Can anyone help me? Please...
*UPDATE*
When i go to recovery mode on screen is this:
# MANUAL MODE #

Applied the CSC-code : ALB
Successfully applied multi-csc
but my csc is MSR, that rom i installed. Can this be reason for no sim issue?
Network lock is not responsible for no sim message, that's usually due to a faulty sim card or card reader.
Try your sim in another phone and another sim in your phone.
You can't go back to pre EMG rom, the csc is unimportant, there is currently no way to network unlock your phone without a valid unlock code.
All the above is already posted many times, please search instead of creating new threads.
i have searched for this problem but i found only similar topics not same as mine. I have signal so i dont think it is modem faulty also my sim card works on another s3...

In that case if you have read the faqs then you need a service centre repair .
Or simply pay for the network unlock as you have been instructed to .

How on earth does that answers the question posted .
I have tried couple of patched modems but cant solve problem. When i flash patched MG4 modem then i dont have imei and s/n is wrong and instead showing some signal as did it before now is crossed circle icon. I tried that to restore efs backup but imei still was null/null. Then i flashed rom again and imei returns also s/n and no sim card error.

Basically they meant two things.
1. They dun want to repair it for u. They can. But dun wan to.
2. Apparently they said ur friend updated the software and spoilt it. Which they can and SHLD solve since its their fault.

Give a thank if i helped you.
They also want to repair for 200 euro!!!??? Replacing motherboard and sim card reader. Why they want to replace it if it is software error?
User flashing error, not covered by warranty.

The reason is that it has failed warranty status .
Due to wrong firmware but more often phone is rooted or had custom rom and signs have not been removed .
Samsung's warranty is not the sellers warranty and they have a much stricter policy .

When he wanted to sell to me he updated to 4.1.2 stock rom but after update he got error no sim.

I will let you know when i try. I hope too because it also error me no sim card....
No, same error. I will try 4.3 version now...
i found this service manual: http://mobilcoms.ru/load/1-1-0-4505
Has anyone know how i can check voltage on R324 (pdf 08-... page 12)? It is under sim/sd card module. Do i need just battery or i need sim and to turn on phone? Has anyone tried this?
I officially announce that my i9300 is fixed. Problem was in sim card slot (some pins were bent). I take apart my phone i start inspecting it. Checked everything from service manual and it was fine but after i remove sticker on sim card slot i saw that one pin is bent (Vcc) so i use small needle and gently rise that contact up. One side of contact is soldered so you must bent up behind solder. i reassemble phone and power on i waiting for result...No service, ok this is normal, as every time so next is no sim error but then signal bar started showing some reception and SMS from carrier started comming. Problem was in sim card slot....200E saved . Thread can be closed!
