Hi all
I have this I9300... It has no lockscreen, and no boot menu... I know the problem should be in keystr, but I have created the files + edited them both to on, and it simply does not work.. Any ideas??

The problem is in the EFS folder... I recived this with corrupted IMEI, I used my SPT box to fix it, but now I have this problem...

There is a thread about flashing via odin and repartitioning. I think that will help. Remember to back up the efs.

Dear Noob..you cannot change the IMEI number yourself..you need to have a backup of your EFS folder for that..if you backed it up use the Ktools app to restore the nav_data.bin file...
Otherwise Service Center..
I hope it helped..
P.S. Post questions in the Q&A section..it is there for a reason..
I also flashed omega v14 and ended up the same as you

Looks like you are in deep trouble.
Considering you are asking this question in general section, I'll take the liberty of assuming that you did not backup your efs folder.
May be someone else can pitch in here to help you. Meanwhile you can confirm if you have the backup of efs folder or not?

Think Omega automatically backs up efs?
Flash stock GB rom gets imei back...

Omega rom ..
efs Backup (added the option to create efs backup during installation)
did you have you it will be efs zip or tar on the sd card .

Here is a guide to repair your IMEI from the SGS2 Forum! It should be the same! I solved my IMEI problem with this Guide on my SGS1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021
[GUIDE] Recover your IMEI in 9 steps.
It is very important that you back up your efs before flashing any ROM, and before you folow this guide BACKUP the faulty efs folder because it contains the old backup of the file nv_data.bin. It beginns with a dot like .nv_data or similar (because I haven't a SGS3, but the structure of the efs folder should be similar).
Please be carefully and think twice what you are doing!!!

There is a thread floating around somewhere that explains how you can restore it if you didn't make a backup. But for the life of me I can't find it.
But it's definitely out there somewhere

I'm using the GT-I9300
I was told to flash to stock firmware but i am totally clueless to what stock firmware i should use as there are so many out there.
dude.. didn't u make a nandroid backup?
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda premium
nope, no backup was done.
I think its time for a paid repair
Use odin and restore to a 4.0.4 Firmware then reset flash counter and then update with kies to 4.1.1 and your imei should be back if it's not then return it to samsung/the place you bought it from and get a warrenty repair ( and what ever they just say u havent flashed it ever )
any idea to what 4.0.4 firmware i should flash it to.

I downloaded one of the leaked custom roms of LSJ (Simplistic and Wanamlite). I flashed it, but the problem is it gets stuck with the boot logo. What seems to be the problem here? I have wiped everything. From data to cache. I came from CM10 nightlies, dorimanx kernel.
All replies will be much appreciated.
I believe the mask might be the problem because jb is new file structure. It may strip all mods from your phone.
Yu may have to wait until the offical version has been out for a while before flashing it.

Quite a possibility that the file you have download it may be corrupted so download it once again and check the md5 checksum and then flash it.. Also don't forget to wipe data and cache partition

The file was not corrupt because if it was corrupt, I cannot open it via winrar. Quite strange. I have also did a full wipe in data and cache.

The results are: the /data parition is UNMOUNTABLE (error when entering recovery mode): E: /data Error mounting data! (invalid argument)
and I tried in Odin: Stuck at DataFS :crying:
Getting a stock Rom or Firmware: OK Odin says PASS but nothing's done.
in CWM: tried to format /data: stuck: nothing done.
: Impossible to Wipe data/factory reset: stuck 15 minutes then reboot, but nothing done.
: Impossible to format it: Error mounting /data!
: Impossible to mount it (obiviousily) Error mounting /data!
Recovery mode works; Download mode too.
Heeeeelp......
version: between Ice Cream Sanwich 4.0.4 and Jelly Bean 4.1.2, wanted to Update but can't reboot! (obivious)
Hardware: Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100 (not G/T/M/...!)
