serial Number is different from IMEI number ma8, the unknown serial numbers appear so since the change of Original Boot Loader while Rooting and Installing custom rom's.
the same can be revived by flashing the original Bootloader for sure
Ps- if serial no is unknown ur phone does function Normally.But if the IMEI no is unknown then the issue arises that the phone will not be recognised by the netwrk provider, no signal,no data etc

[Q] IMEI and changing CSC

Hi guys I know when you change your CSC on your phone you have to type in your IMEI number, if i typed in the wrong IMEI would it change the IMEI number that is displayed on the phone? Its just im sending it off for warranty and i want to make sure that everything seems perfect as I have rooted it. Everything is back to stock and the flash counter is reset. I just wanted to make sure that the IMEI number hasn't been changed or anything by accident when changing the CSC.
Thanks guys

Only you know your correct IMEI have a look on the phone and under the battery .
jje
i know what my IMEI number is, but there are / within the number on the sticker on the back of my phone, where as on the device itself its just 15 continuous numbers, is that normal ?
Also is the IMEI linked with the the CSC, e.g if I changed the CSC to a different one would they know ?

almost certainly not - changing the IMEI is far, far more complex than that
I believe you can also check if the phone is in a rather "legit state" if Kies will let you upgrade firmware (and of course if it recognizes your SIM).

[Q] [problem] Cellular issue

so i had this problem before with my i9300 gs3 i had fixed it by restoring a backup but the issue is that i have no cellular connection at all doesnt matter if i switch roms or restore or install a new one.
I have tried using odin back to stock but i cannot connect to verizon for service (no data/ phone/txt)
if i restore to stock i get data but no cellular connection.
on the stock rom it says my phone is in service but i cant connect to cellular on any other rom like Paranoid android 2.52 it says that my phone is out of service.
Ps. i am not a noob and i have fixed other issues before but i have no idea what the issue even is. I think it might be a kernel issue.
oh and my imei is poping up as 0.
[Update] so i have restored my imei and my eri and i now i get no data calls text and roaming issue
Do you have a backup of your EFS folder? Your IMEI is 0 which means you won't be able to connect to your network, if you have an EFS backup then you can just restore your IMEI and get everything working again....
If not then follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804123 and follow the steps in the post to get your IMEI re-assigned to your phone.
Either way, always backup your EFS folder! The information it contains is very important.

lost network help

Well after installing a rom and after i inserted the sim pin it poped up this http://prntscr.com/yl5bv and i thought to insert the pin again and i did that few times also tried to enter 12345 etc... and after that i have no network, i restored the backup but didnt helped ,
itried almost everything i relocked the bootloader-unlocked it again, tried different roms and kernels, flashed with seus and nothing helped, as i said only at that rom(touchwiz rom based on fxp 210) it pops up the window to enter the sim network unlock pin ,
on any other rom doesnt, the signal is full and when i try to call it says no network registered
i tried also other sim cards and they either dont work
So does someone knows what to solve this issue or i must go to service center, and my phone is sony tipo st21is
You will get the best help if you visit your nearest service center. I read your post but cant figure out where the problem lies. Sorry . I hope your problem will be resolved by the experts there. All the best bro..
what the Baseband version in the about phone column . Itz dude to wrong baseband. check
Are you still receiving signal? Other than the comments above, you might also want to check the IMEI. Blocked IMEI could also be the reason.

bro i also have this full signal but no service problem it is due to IMEI no. check your Phone IMEI and match it with your phone IMEI on the back behind the battery (Or go to settings -> system -> Device Information -> Identity and IMEI is listed at the bottom.)

My S3 can't be registered on network?

Hello!
My phone doesn't has a Serial Number which is lost but i have IMEI so to prepair that i flashed the original frimware from Samsung from Kies by doing "Frimware upgrade and instalization" so Kies demanded the serial number and i put it that's how i resolved this issue and now i have the serial number and IMEI but the problem is that when making calls the phone says "Not Registered On Network" this problem occured to me when i wasn't having the SN but now how it could happen and i have the SN ? i tried to go to settings and selecting the network that should i connect to but nothing changed. I think that Cert File or the EFS partition touched? Please help me i'm really in a big problem :crying:
really?
there's no one can help us with this damn "Not Registered On Network" "No SIM" and this changed serial numbers?!
there are many sgs3 with these problem,
somebody help plz
we tried every modems, roms, stock roms, with odin and different recoveries,
best question is, how we can correct this changed serial number?
and yes, there is no samsung service in my area
Most likely the device is blacklisted. You don't just "lose" a serial number like a coin falls through a hole in a pocket..

The IMEI is the serial number.
Also, network registration errors can be one or more of being the SIM card, blacklisted IMEI and/or SIM card slot being bad itself.
Good luck!

If you have your imei then only z3x box can do it , after rooting you have repair network from samsung tool 18.9 and thats it your problem will go out from your phone :good:

How to find whether I have correct Radio Modem ?

I am having trouble with Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (SM-G530FZ). The phone doesn't have mobile service. Cant even make an Emergency Call. When making an emergency call it says turning on radio and after sometimes call end with Radio Off Message.
IMEI : Matches with phone sticker
APN : Settings are there
Baseband : Baseband Number is populated. But how to verify I am on proper baseband ?
Things tried :
Updates through Kies. No dice.
I think there is somthing wrong with the Modem. How to verify that I have correct modem ?

Go to this article http://www.pingzic.net/mobile-network-not-available-fix/
Read "3. Fixing Improper Radio Signals Broadcasting" part and make sure Radio is turned ON instead of OFF.
If that doesn't work, flash the phone with Odin Software.
