using this asking here would be the best thing to do

hello yasir,
as i can undrstand u r a first time experienced rooting an android phone, but no worries, i beleive u hav messed some whr while rooting ur precious S3 device, now if u wish to go to the original firmware the best way was to backup ur stock firmware before rooting or installing custom roms, but now as u hav messed up ur phone software after rooting, what u can do is go to sammobile.com and download an official stock firmware depending on ur region and install it through odin this install will unroot ur phone and bring back ur phone to stock settings n firmware. hope dis will resolve ur issue and eid mubarak.

Question one is your IMEI on the phone the same as under the battery .
If not restore your backed up EFS folder .
Very difficult to understand your post and what it means .

Might need a warranty repair. Mine did when my phone kept restarting. Think they replaced the motherboard.
Have u tried flashtool from the x10 development section yet? And flash the latest firmware and baseband. If u havent and want to try it, post again i will try to help
Try this first before warranty repair. It will save u money if this works

I'm having the same problem. I believe is something with the sd card. If I use the phone to dial or surf the web there's no problem, but if I start NDrive, or any game that's installed on the sd card, then the phone reboots
can u plz copy paste the specific link of installing flashtool and firmware.
and how to install them step by step thanx alot for your suggestions plz reply

Oye oye ..... no begging knowledge is our birth right
JIG is basically a device which goes into your phone's MHL port (the port where you connect your USB cable) has a 103 Ohm (or KOhm don remember exactly) resister which sort of jump starts your otherwise dead phone into the download mode and resets your custom binary counter to 0.
Go to ebay if you are a n00b with electronics as well buy one from your region.
else go to you tube there are a billion videos on how to make one.
hope it helped

Google Service Framework keeps crashing
Did you get it to work? I can't downgrade my phone from 4.0.3 to any 2.3.x firmware. Flashing works fine and the phone starts up nicely, but once it enters the setup mode ("Welcome to GT-I9100" where you press the android for setup) for 2.3.x the Google Service Framework och application Software update keeps crashing and I can't proceed.
Any ideas?

I'm tempted to say "No, you can't", but that would be mean.
The correct answer: it depends. What build is your phone running?
How you root and what you can do is determined by what build and bootloader your phone has.

If u have EFS backup, u can try the steps here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17587351
else
Get an app named 'srs-samsung-unlock' from the samsung site.. log in using their test account and u can use it to get ur imei back...! I went thru the process myself..! u can find the instuctions in the site about how to repair ur imei.. u cant unlock without payment but u can repair ur imei.. U have to b on rooted ICS or rooted GB to use it. Wil exit wit an error if on JB as it has a bug. Good luck...

Tried SRS unlock method and imei repair but needs 30euro before it attempts it, bit of a rip off, wont work with test account, or am I missing something.
This only option??

i tried with the
username: test
password: srscom
and it worked like a charm for me.. managed to repair ma friends IMEI that way.. i got this test account in one of the samsung sites itself.. dunno where exactly unfortunately.. Search n u wil find many on google that help.. cant unlock but allows repair.. Be in ICS or below though.. or it wil ruin ur EFS more..
i searched for a week n discovered this account.
Try in HERE for another solution that may help.
Ther were certain users who can help u for a fee though..

Ya but only if u r unlucky with the login IDs... I fixed it without payin a penny.. Like i said, used those userID n password n it worked.. Besides, u get a lot o IDs if u search that have the required amount of points for the fixing.. :good:
The phone i restored was a product not from my country and so the service center also refused its fixing.. had to do it myself n with that useriD, voila..!

Did you manage to get it sorted ??? I had a blank IMEI and baseband unknown. I used SiiRepair app from google play and it worked first time !! I then unlocked it with GalaxyS Unlock app and again that worked a treat !!! its by helioz
Back up youe efs though if you already havnt.
I didnt and when i did a software update it went back to imei blank ???? Im still having a nightmare with it now nothing seems to work !!!!
hope this helps
