Dear Forum Members...
Having Samsung Galaxy Korean Note E160L Boot-Loop Issue,
well got phone in same condition, user told me he tried to update phone via Odian with
"I717UCLF6_ATTLF6_USA_ATT_Android_4.0.4" & failed..
well i dont know, which build it was UH24,FD09 Etc..
i Have tried to update phone with all firmware named below..
still phone is in booting loop, tried with custome CM09 also, but same..
phone can go in both download & recovery..
help needed..
Tried Firmwares (with I717 pit)
HOME_E160L.FA09.1726_CL867558_REV0000_user_mid_ship.tar.md5
HOME_E160L.FB07.2054_CL935721_REV0000_user_mid_ship.tar
HOME_E160L.FD06.2010_CL1077370_REV0000_user_mid_ship.tar.md5
HOME_E160L.UF13.1608_CL703272_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_E160L.UH24.1821_CL966093_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_E160L.UH24.1821_CL966093_REV02_user_low_ship_rooted.tar
HOME_E160L.UE11.2101_CL487164_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
shv -e160l is different from I717.. so trying to flash firmwares from phones not for said models, is like putting a time bomb inside.. its been said sooooooo many times to never flashed firmware from other models, is that hard to mentally accept? so why not try flashing correct firmwares for exact models, with correct kernels, radios or pit for that exact device ang maybe youll find out that you were just mixing oil from water before..

Hi everyone.
I had just bought the new Samsung galaxy s2,
the attachment got the screenshot of version of my phone.
now I was doing lot of reading on this forum before I do anything.
then I decided to install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320328 rom to my phone.
now as far as I know that 1st step is to take backup of my contacts and phone data.
then copy the zip file to sd card and try to install this rom as per instruction but then I got confused about " Find the best modem for your network"
can somebody help me with this.
right now I don't know anything about android but I am quick Lerner.
can you explain me what this modem does. If I messed with it, will I be not able to connect wifi.
I had seen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1277593 thread. but I dont know what is all about. If I get some idea them might I will understand more quickly..
thanks hoping somebody will help me.
You have an I9100T model phone.
What they are saying is that each user of their clean and simple Rom may have different results with different modems.
The linked modem thread has good info on users experience around the world and what works best in their region for their carrier, mainly for the I9100 model.
Many users in Australia are saying that the I9100T model works best with the modem that comes on the 'T' device.
Read that modem thread for more info and I think there is a link in there for the 'T' model modem thread. Also might help to check out the Australian thread. Heaps of I9100T users comments in there.
Good luck.
Edit: I believe WiFi is handled by the kernel not the modem. The modem is more for connection to your carrier.

Hi, welcome to the wonderful world of the SGS2!
Nice choice on first ROM to try out ;-)
first thing you need to do is root your phone and install clockworkmod and superuser. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 is a really great guide and source of the knowledge. That thread is where I started from to learn the ways of android.
regarding the modem: this relates to mobile cell reception rather than wifi. Some different modems work better than others, latest is not always best. The modem can also be network carrier dependant.. Network 3 optimised have always been the best for me. Modems can be flashed and tested fairly easily once your accustomed to your rooted phone and using cwm(clockworkmod).
Hope this helps!
thanks for the reply guys.
now I am going to play with my phone 1st time.
now I want to know if I messed up something. if there are option to restore the phone to its default level or not.
thanks waiting for answer.

1. The yellow triangle is present because you flashed a unofficial kernel. There is a way to remove it in the thread OR you can buy a jig off eBay and just plug it in.
2. Did you set the connection settingin the notification bar/ settings? You can also try to reinstall the drivers for your phone.
Thanks for reply guys. I fixes the usb prob and order the jig form ebay. Thx

but I dont know how to use it,
I try to search some tutorials from net but didnt get any. can anybody help me. please...
This is what intratech said about halfway down the 3rd post in his official firmware thread.
***********
If you've already flashed a full package from elsewhere and cannot reset your binary counter using the Jig just flash this package in the PDA or Bootloader (Yes both will work) section of Odin to replace the bootloaders and then you can reset the counter:http://www.multiupload.com/LQQBRQVJUD

Hey, everyone needs a good laugh. don't be a sour noob.
First of all do you have Odin? Did you read Intratech's Odin thread? Did you even go to his thread? If not, read up here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278&highlight=stock+firmware
If links don't work for ROMs (I suggest downloading LA4 if you want Gingerbread, best Gingerbread ROM out there) then google the firmware name and look for a mirror. Ever since the whole download site crackdown, it's been hard to keep good mirrors, which is why you have so many dead links.
BATMAN-- OUT!
I have odin and i have looked at Intratech's thread and have read it multiple times trying to figure it out but not helping..the more i read, the more confusing it gets...sorry for being a sour noob...just frustrated
I flashed the phone using odin the gingerbread rom and then when i was following Intratech's guide on rooting the phone, the program he has listed both freeze and stop responding

Hi there.
I'm running into a specific problem with my SGS2.
After successfully upgrading to multiple Stock ICS from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487 , I keep receiving the same message when I try to make a phone call : "NOT REGISTERED ON THE NETWORK".
The phone is not picking up my network and it's on Emergency calls only.
At first, 3G/HSPDA connectivity wasn't working. Only WiFi was working.
However after following a procedure on another thread, I entered the code *2767*3855# immediatly after flashing yet another stock ICS rom.
To my surprise the 3G/HSPDA connectivity was working this time. I took as a sign of victory, but that was only short noticed since the phone was still on Emergency calls only and it still gave me that network error message.
Guys PLEASE I implore you to help me find a solution.
I've flashed the above stock rom (using ODIN of course) in the following order :
1.) I9100XWLP4_I9100LUXLP1_LUX
2.) I9100XWLP7_I9100OXELP7_SER
3.) I9100XWLP7_I9100XEULP5_XEU
What could have possibly went wrong ?
I reside in Cape Town, South Africa. I did the flashing for a friend and his network works just fine....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Steve

Bumping posts in a short time space is not allowed this is not Samsung service fix your phone forum .
First is to check you have the correct IMEI on your phone .
If not then restore your backed up EFS folder .If you have not backed up EFS then you need to start reading the IMEI and EFS posts .

Hi i am having the same error, i have tried two different versions of ICS both are official versions. They both install fine and after the phone reboots it goes straight to the home screen without asking for the code. The data network is not active as well as the phone. When i try to make a call it gives me the
"not registered on network error"
I have even tried updating via kies which produces the same result.
The last two installs i tried was with ODIN.
I have gone back to version 2.3.4 which is working fine
any help will be greatly appreciated thanks you
Rohan
Remove battery then check on the underside of the phone your model no.
What country ?
What carrier are you with?
What ICS are you trying to install?
Which gingerbread are you able to use?
PS you can find out which firmware you are on by dialing *#1234#
Post your information

Definately the firmware for South Africa; "Samfirmware shows both to be either Vodafone or XFM".
While on Gingerbread backup your EFS using HC-Ktool or any other EFS backup tool if thats not available in your country.
You could then if needed restore using the same app.
What sort of code do you normally have to input before you get to your main home screen?
Do you do a complete data/factory reset and full wipe/format system before installing new firmware.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Hi it's a sim card code i input before i get to the home screen. I did a factory reset and erased the usb storage, and then i used odin to load ICS on the phone.
So you say it must be the firmware since i am on MTN and i am trying to load a vodaphone rom?
Try a firmware from here:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
instructions of how to flash are also posted there.
Look for your region or a multi CSC region.
(taken from a previous post).
Copy your internal sdcard and external micro sdcard to your PC.
Boot into recovery. Data factory reset. Advanced option, wipe dalvik cache.
Mounts and storage option, format system; data; sdcard.
Also try Ultimate cleaning script
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1166954
Install correct stock firmware using Odin or place a custom rom zip on your sdcard and install from recovery.
Once firmware has booted, from the dial pad, dial *2767*3855#
This will factory data reset.
Wait for firmware to reboot.
Hopefully after that you should be OK.
I got the same probleme some time ago. The only workaround was to switch off the pin-code in settings and then turn it on again...
After flashing a new firmware and do a full wipe, the problem was gone...
Thanks guys i will try both these methods and report back...
First of a big THANK YOU to both of you guys for helping...
-I 1st did a factory reset
-Then Disabled the Sim Card Pin Request
-Downloaded the XFA firmware that you told me to download
-Flashed with ODIN and ICS was working.
Oh before i did all of this i downloaded an official version of Android 2.3.4 and flashed to phone.
I don't know if that had anything to do with it but just thought i would mention it in case it did.
So thanks again guys really awesome...

Flashing back to original firmware , ie gingerbread is always a good idea. On quite a few threads, members have had problems going from one ICS to another.
Pleased it has worked out for you.

you are probably missing the keystr file in efs\imei folder. Just restore back that file and you can use back the sim card pin lock. i had a similar issue previously too.

Hi!
Since you are new here, it might be the best time for you to read the forum rules just to get you informed.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81 check it out!
1. try inserting your sim in another phone, if you find a signal in the other phone, then there might be something wrong with the s2..
if there is still no signal, then it is a network related problem and call your network operator
2. if you find a signal in the other phone and not in your s2, then you must flash a modem..
DEFINITION:
*Modem/Radio/Baseband is all the same thing and can be seen by going to Settings - About Phone - Baseband. It's basically a driver which receives and sends Mobile Network signals as well as handling switching between GPRS, 3G, HSDPA etc....... (but not WiFi connection, that and switchover between Mobile Network and WiFi is handled by the kernel). Reasoning as to why Modem has no influence on WiFi can be found in this post by Entropy - http://<b>http://forum.xda-developer...count=6556</b>
USAGE:
*There is no one "Best" modem for everybody. Unfortunately you actually have to try to find the modem which works perfectly for you on performance, strength and battery drain levels. The good thing is that from my lengthy 8 month experience with Galaxy S2, I'm happy to report that there are a few modems that seem to perform well geographically for most users. These modems are KE7, KH3, KI3, KI4, KL1, LPS, NEKF2, NELP2 & NELP3.
COMPATIBILITY:
*Modems do not need to be matched up with firmware like it's done with ROMs and Kernels. For example, a KI4 modem can be used with a KL1 ROM and the other way round. The only thing you need to pay attention to is what model your SGS2 is. 9100 and 9100 modems are compatible across both models. However, 9100 model and US variants are not cross compatible since the devices are designed to work on different bands.
INSTALLATION:
*I will add a flashing guide to post number 5 soon, hence why it says "Work in progress.....". For the moment I suggest asking Mr. Google to do a search for you. Bottom line is, for CWM packaged modems you need to be rooted and have a working CWM recovery (flash the CWM modem zip within recovery). For .TAR packages, all you need to do is flash it while your device is in Download Mode and connected to ODIN. The .TAR file should be selected in the PHONE field. Don't touch anything else.

Ok a friend S3 started acting up I didn't back up so I lost anything
When I tried to put back the original firmware on the phone using Odin for no reason at all will it be installed. It will just stick on Nand writing in the bottom part of the screen and nothing on tp part of the screen that would usually show FIL, PASS etc.
Next thing with some other firmwares the blue loading bar on the phone will go to basically 100% but nothing will happen on the phone
I did get on 2 firmwares, one just kept booting to the Samsung logo then go in a revolving boot sequence with the animation coming up, the other firmware I got on seems like it belonged to some other phone company and after their boot screen comes up and the Samsung's logo come on the screen it will just stay there.
In both cases the phone was left after installation on both screens for hours with no success.
All I want to do is put back on the 4.12 JB T mobile version enter unlock code and give back to my friend
Can I get some assistance please thanks

Take out the battery and post the model number here.
Factory reset to get past the forever spinning Samsung logo. The Odin fails are probably due to incorrect firmware.
GT-I9300

thanks

You should stick to that forum before someone doesn't read this thread and answers with a link to our firmware which will brick your device.
It should be in there somewhere. Did you read the stickies? Like aerowinder said, all tour future questions need to be posted in that forum. We know very little about your device here.
You can find all samsung firmware at samsung-updates.com

Well that forum is specifically for your device. Use what you find in this forum and youre destined for a brick.
If you were to ask this question there you would get answers from people who are familiar with the device you have. Ours is very different.

According to this you are working on an International i9300 S3 I will move your thread to the correct forum as to not confuse other users here, or have someone here give you the wrong links to software that may brick your device.
Thread moved.
The op can post what the problem is here please if its an I9300 .
I9300 Basics read first.
