Hey . I am new to XDA and android too
I have Samsung Galaxy S III International ..
after I upgraded the firmware from ICS. 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.2
I suffered from a serious issue I got no sound during call . I couldn't hear the ring when I am calling also I couldn't hear the voice from the person whom I call also he can't hear my voice too ..
I sent it to Samsung they flashed the latest software twice but nothing happened to the issue ..
they told me you rooted it for 7 times and this should be the problem so you may downgrade it but it will affect the hardware
after that they told me by rooting you lost your warranty and it's a hardware issue will cost you about 1800 Egyptian pound and the new device cost 4500 EGP ..
so before Using triangle trying to reset counter flash I found this topic here ::
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076857
-- Galaxy S3 RIL+Modem CWM Flashable Collection -- by this guy Kamalmawa including a lot and new Modems For GT-I9300
this Topic talking about hardware's radio and modem and signal
so I tried to install the latest modem for UK even I am from Egypt Via CWM as it's a flashable Zip file ( .md5 )

-----------------------
after doing this now I become able to make phone calls again !
also it improved the network signal I could hear the one whom I call again and of course ppl. could hear my voice before that PDA was no more than an IPOD ..
so If you have no sound during call issue too .. try to flash a suitable modem .
thanks and hope this topic gonna help :good:

Hi , i recently registered in Xda-developers cuz i found out some updates for my Galaxy S II.
So , my question is how do i know what firmware i have to update , there are a lot of firmwares and i don't know which to flash...
Another question , firmware update means that my android version will change to a newer one?
And finally , reading a lot of post about updating galaxy s II with Kies or Odin , i found that a lot of people had problems flashing the phone and that sincerely scares me.. I'm afraid of bricking my phone.
Anyways , there are my Galaxy S II information :
Version of android : 2.3.3
Bandbase : I9100XWKG1
Kernel : 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKG1
Clalabeltest_I9100XWKG1
Compilation : Gingerbread.XWKG1
Note: It's unbranded. Also i noticed that in the kies update at the enf of the new firmware information it says (ITV)
Can someone help me pls? :/
Check if it says i9100 under battery, not i9100G.
Learn how to use Odin to flash.
Than come back if you want help

Hello friends,
I am living in Israel and got the SC-02 (a friend brought me from Japan).
I put on the phone the operating system ICS (Open Europe - the offial version).
I notice that i got no GPS working , and i got some cellular reception problems (some times delay in calls, calls are cut in the middle and sometimes no reception at all).
From what i have read in this forum i understand that the SC-02 got different hardware and memory from the Eruropian version.
Does anyone knows where can i find an official ICS sutiable for my phone including instructions ?
I found some unofficial guids, for Cyanomode + SC-02 kerenels , but the instructions seems very complicated and unclear...(i didnt root my cell phone).
If this is the only choice that i have got.. does anyone know of a good instructions link (or can tell here in simple words what have to be done ?)
I will relly appreciate any help ...please..
Many thanks ,
Ran
Your "Special" Galaxy SII
Hi Ran,
I too have been gifted with a SC-02c in Israel.
My first recommendation is that you try and give it back. You REALLY REALLY want the international version which is the version used in Israel. Failing that cry a little after you have finished with that.
1) You can actually burn the local versions of the firmware but you need to preserve the
- Kernel of the SC-02c
- Modem of the Sc-02c
If you do that everything will work fine minus the FM radio and NFC
See following link for help :
---www&japanmobiletech&com_search_label_SC-02C---
replace & with .
Replace _ with\
2) Don't break the screen as you will not be able to easily replace the screen in Israel as the chassis of the SC-02c and the international version are not the same.
The solution: I let you know in a few days as I have to replace mine.
Hi , Many thaks
Nice to know that other guys in Israel already encounter the same problem.
I have ICS (Open Europ ) on my device now.
Can you please explain how can i change the kernnel and modem version ?
Shell i do it with Udin ? where can i find the correct kernnel and modem version for
the SC-02C (does it suit with ICS ?) ? I Cant see the link you put here ..
Thanks,
Ran
having the same problem
hello gays,
having the same problem as Ran,
can u please guide me how to solve the problem?
tnx,

SC-02c in ISrael
See instructions at the website I gave you. I had to change the "." and "\" as this forum won't allow me past links at the moment.
It explains how to burn "kernel & modem" and using heimdall
You can use the Kernel from Siyah which will give you root access and other neat features. If you want to use the "original" kernel & modem you need to find the ICS version of sc-02c at website
samsung-updates&com_category_news
but I wouldn't bother just use the version from Siyah.
Let me know how you go.
Hi,
After aloog try i cusseded in flashig the ICS official ROM (from sammobile the V. from 16 June). I needed to configure again the partitions (Via original SC-02C PIT file) , after that i turn into old android version (2.3.6) and after that the ICS.
For now everthig is working fine exept from the GPS..
I use :
Model no :SC-02C
Android version : 4.0.3
Baseband Version : SC02COMLPG
Kernel version : [email protected]#3 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 13 20:42:11 KST
Build no : IML74K.OMLPG
While i am doing reset (boot) for my cell l see the Samsung i9100 icon in the first screen , any idea way ?
Any idea what is the problem with the GPS ?
Many thanks ,
Ran
Thats It guys !!
I download the "GPS Status" application . I did --> tools-->Manage A-GPS state
Reset , and afterwards --> Download (to get GPS assistance from network).
Now the GPS is working , and everything is fix (with the official ICS ).
Thanks for all !!:laugh:
Excellent.
Actually you can change to the official "Orange - Israel" ICS if you want.
Where can I find the GPS Status app on PLAY ?
Regards
Hi Everyone,
I know there are a few thread around with the same purpose, but nothing helped me. I even did ping few members who claimed to have known the problem, to my bad, they are busy to reply me. So i thought i would start a new thread explaining my problem.
I got a new Galaxy GT I9300 Before 3months in Singapore, The shop is famous for selling smuggled phones, so i am not sure to which country mine belongs to. There was no network initially, so the shopkeeper offered his help, He gave the mobile to a nearby service centre and got it ready,
I am not sure what he did, but d phone had CWM and Super User. I already own a Galaxy S2 and i have done a lot of flashing Custom MOD's, So i wanted my Galaxy S3 to be original for a while. So i tried to restore by flashing a official firmware, To my surprise the phone didnt have any network in it after the ODIN flash. I tried an INDIAN firmware, then Singapore.
I tried CWM (which i am not a pro) but couldn get back the network. I went back to the service centre and he told some files are corrupted since i flashed the phone with official firmware.
He again flashed it, now the network works, voila ! I couldn figure out and he wouldn tel me. ****ing $40 !!! The phone had CWM and SuperUser installed in it again.
The phone had the following information after wat ever he did.
IMEI - 3531*********99 it is same in d board and in the phone information.
MODEL NUMBER - GTI9300
ANDROID VERSION - 4.0.4
BASEBAND VERSION - I9300DXLE9
KERNEL VERSION - 3.0.15-611327-USER SE [email protected] -71 #1SMP PREEMPT TUE MAY 22 21:54:17KST 2012
BUILD NUMBER - IMM76D.I9300XXALEF
NETWORK - SINGTEL
SERVICE STATE - IN SERVICE
MOBILE NETWORK STATE - DISCONNECTED
MY PHONE NUMBER - UNKNOWN
ERI VERSION - N/A
IMEI SV - 01
SERIAL NUMBER - 000000000000
DEVICE STATUS - MODIFIED
Can anyone please infer on what the service guy had done. so that i can update my phone to JB. I am sick and bored of the same firmware for over 4 months and i wanna change it. But i dont want to get struck in the same issue. Please help and advance thanks !
I am afraid you had bad luck
1. You should NEVER pay for stuff that does not work (and is not with original firmware).
2. You should also read this - it is almost certainly the same story (in your case SN 00000000 should also give a strong clue things are not what they should):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34226179
3. Since whoever f***ed those things the first time on your phone did not make an efs image-backup you can never return to factory state!
4. You are basically stuck with a phone where you will have to apply a patched modem after each ROM upgrade.
when you say patched modem what do you mean.?
Patched modem ???
When u say patched modem, can u explain tat ? Is it possible to create one by ourself ?

A patched modem apparently is modem code that does not check all the stuff in the efs partition (for instance when SN is 00..00) - I am currently using the one posted by ariza somewhere around. Patching one might be quite complex and for the moment I did not have the time to research that. The only problem that I see is that certain providers are said to be using very unusual modem code (since they have unusual settings in their own network) - and in that case you need to use a patched version of that specific modem version - but so far I have not seen that happening in a very repeatable way in posts from european networks.
The other problem is that when you install any full ROM (for instance 4.1.2) that will overwrite your modem - so you will have to re-install the old patched modem (so far ariza_v04.zip seems to work OK with 4.1.2 on my operator's network).
Serial no 000000...
Thousands of Thanks man, I have been facing the same problem from last few days after flashing cwm6 and UltraRom. hi can you please suggest me an modem for Samsung Galaxy s3 I9300 Indian version.
AP: I9300XXALE8
CP: I9300XXLE8
CSC: I9300DBTALE5
Hi Everyone,
I am typing this query under severe worry about my galaxy s3.I am dying for any help experts would be able to provide please.
I had 4.2.1 stock ROM installed on my s3 and im a very frequest visitor to xda for custom roms.
I downloaded the Android revolution 40 ROM for S3 and installed it after taking a backup of my stock ROM using recovery
When i booted into the new 4.3 revolution i was getting the error " not registered on network".
I searched the threads here in xda and did everything like ariza patch and flashing mg4 modem but even now the phone was not able to register to network Airtel
the most strange part is i get full signal,I have baseband and also IMEI still it doesnt connect to network
now the most strange part.If anyone calls me they are able to get the ring but im not getting any notification and the phone is idle.
I tried to search for network from mobile networks but it gave msg as "error when searching for network"
I took the phone to Samsung service centre and they told me they will reinstall 4.1.2 and it will work
I waited for 2 hrs and they told me its done.I put the simcard in and again i have same "not registered on network error"
Im sure they dont know how to sort this issue and the only thing they did was reinstall firmware which did not help
Im very afraid now that my mobile is permanently gone and i feel very bad for this
I hence request the experts to help me and bring my device back to normalcy which will releive me of stress mentally.
Please help ASAP.
Thanks in Advance
VJ

Hi Sir,
Many thanks for youre reply.
Today i got a call from the Samsung Service Centre that they are unable to fix the "netowkr not found problem"
They told me that there is some problem with the motherboard and it will cost 9000INR which is approx 155 USD to change the motherboard
They told me that is the only way the phone can get the network back and there is no other option.
I read your reply and I will download stock 4.1.2 from sammobile and flash with odin at home and flash the patched MG4 modem today.
That is my last hope as i cannot afford 155 USD for the motherboard as it is 1/3rd the price of my mobile.
They din charge me anything and gave my phone back.they have installed 4.1.2 stock I9300DDEMG2 modem and build number I9300XXEMH4.
I will post tomorrow what is the stauts of my phone.
Many thanks anyways for your help,this is my only final attempt to save my S3.
I hope it works.
Many thanks anyways for all the help

Hi Everyone,
I would like to inform you all that finally I have revived my S3 and it recognizes the network now.
I flashed the patched modem on my stock Indian firmware and my IMEI became 0049....
I found out that my SGS3 was bought in UAE by my cousin and hence i downloaded the 4.1.2 stock UAE firmware and flashed it.
Again no signal and no network
Finally as a last step before giving up i again flashed the patched modem and restarted the phone and it connected to network
My baseband is back,IMEI is back to normal,able to connect to network and everything works now
The only glitch now is that the serial number is 000000
I dont think it affects the phone in anyway.
Aslo one more question,can i update from OTA software updates in Samsung or again my phone will have "no netowkr problem"
Kindly advise
Many thanks anyways for all the help
OTA updates only available to unmodified handsets, running unrooted stock rom, recovery etc. All this and more is in the general forum, sticky threads -go read them.

Rather than flashing just the modem, it is better to flash a full firmware. Download an official (possibly 4.4.2 now it is released?) firmware from sammobile or other relevant websites, back up your data, and then flash via Odin. You can always try other firmwares to check for better signals.
Cheers
