[Q] No serial number and network control key required - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. Im having a problem with my phone. After reflashing a stock rom from cynogenmod, my phone locked up on it's own. The serial number is also gone. Im currently in singapore, and only realise that my phone is actually an export set from poland. Ive flashed a singapore rom. I dont have a backup of my efs file. And will everything be okay after flashing to a poland rom? Or will everything stilll remaine the same?
Im currently on 4.0.4 ICS with the baseband version of i9100DXLPB. Help is kindly appreciated..

well you can try flashing a poland rom
as well as using simlock app
and also the gs2 repair app from store to restore efs/imei if possible

[Q] Need HELP "No Network Available" in Samsung Galaxy SII

Dear Sir(s),
I am facing problem in Samsung Galaxy s2 which is as follows:
I have a Open Sim Samsung Galaxy S2 (Indian Market) which I had upgraded to 2.3.5 unofficially from Samfirmware.com. After that I root it & upgrade too many times but all of sudden I am unable to make calls from it then I change the Sim card but the facing same problem, I cant understand the problem. Then at last I downgrade with I9100XXKI3 but problem is still as it is..
so please help me..
Dial *#06# and check see if your IMEI is ok.
Yep, check IMEI as above. If it is different, it may need to be returned to Samsung for repair.... There are a few threads in XDA on EFS folder being corrupted, and this is where the IMEI info is stored. Some may have had success repairing, bit most I've heard have restored an EFS backup.
Hope its not this though...... :-(

Please suggest
After too much Googling about IMEI restoration I came to know about EFS Folder, I dont have backup of that. but I took backup of OLD rom from CWM Recovery, Is it helpful to me..?
Yes replace old rom.
If that does restore your efs and imei then back up efs.
Multiple posts on xda re efs may help.

hello everyone,
I'm currently using the stock orange france version of i9300....And yesterday, when I tried to flash the 4.1.1 official Jelly Bean i9300DLIB...everything seemed to be find, the signal is still there....BUT IT'S HOPELESS FOR ME TO MAKE ANY CALLS OR MESSAGES-not registered in network T^T....even through the signal is full and my phone can easily detect the SIM card
After that pain, I tried to find my way back to the stock rom from downloading (i forgot to do the nandroid backup but only imei backup) and all i found out is the "No signal" sign (circle with a cross) and it's still useless to make phone calls and messages before and after i restored the imei.

original stock rom flash in odin my problem sole i am try ok
:good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good:
I had the same issue. Flashing using ODIN did fix it.
Is this within the warranty if the device is "Bricked" or completly damaged when getting this issue?
Hi, Did you by any chance flash with a XXEMG4 or newer ROM.? If you did, then your EFS partition would of been changed. If after that, you flashed an older ROM, the older ROM would be unable to read the modified EFS.
You will have to flash with XXEMG4 or newer to fix. It might help, it might not.
Good luck!!

It wont unfortunately. He has serial number 00000000000000000.
Try flash stock XXEMH1 firmware (incl.modem) Your probably ok with the new modem.
Goodluck!
Danny
Just download the original (Stock) Firmware (corresponding to your country) from Sam Mobile and flash it thru Odin... You should be all ok... You will get yor S/n and IMEI back...
Good luck!

problem with unlock on samsung S3 from UK

Hello
i buy new Samsung S3 from ebay in UK.
But device is locked (Operator logo is number 3 may be this is name of operator )
Mobile is android version 4.3
First i install a new rom form Bulgarian operator and then i install CF-AutoRoot
Device now is rooted but not Unlocked.
I try some appps ( GalaxSIM Unlock and other ...) not every app say "This locked is not support""
see the picture (in attach)
mat be have way do downgread old version ?
please help me
Thank you so much
73
I don't think its possible to unlock network with efs v2 that I know of. 4.3 is v2.
.
ok but may be is possible to downgreade android version ?
but haw ?
It's not the android version it's the change from esf v1 to v2. Do you have an old efs back up? Only way back is to have an old efs v1 back up.
.
i understand. Can I get a backup to another phone (S3) or should be just only my phone with my IMEI number?
or just i flash with old firmware ? and efs to change on v2 to v1 ?
I've been reading and no you're stuck atm. You can't use another imei folder in you're phone.
.
Found firmware version 4.1.2
I was able to flash the phone with her, then I downloaded the program and ruutnah GalaxySIM Unlock.
It gives me that the status of the phone is unlocked, but it is not. Still wants code of the network.
Any ideas?
Mate flash any firmware you want but you will still have efs v2 which means you're stuck. Do not go back to ICS firmware or you may end up with a brick. SDS on ICS.

is there a way to change from efs v2 to v1 and how?

No. No bk up no going bk. Samsung put this in place to lock phone's to carrier's. Little bit like Knox . its there and no one can get rid of this. Same as with you're problem. No one has been able to mod this in some way. Sorry.

Have a look at this mate. Just found this on my travel's

Unless you have a backup of your original efs before upgrade then I don't think this is possible..You would need to downgrade to 4.1 stock rom then restore efs from 4.1 backup then unlock.. Unfortunately you cannot sim unlock 4.3 firmware..( although there is a link floating about somewhere linking to a paid site saying they have solved the issue) but I have not seen any reports on here saying they have solved it..

I managed to flash unbranded german 4.3 to it via odin. now i got
Model Country/Carrier Date Version PDA CSC Kies
GT-I9300 Germany 2013 December 4.3 I9300XXUGMK6 I9300DBTGMK2
So its confirmed that site is bogus?
UPDATE: I actually just found my backups on an old hdd. I got a "Nandroid Backup" and "EFSProBackup" folder with file(s).
I do not know which android version i used back then.
thanks a lot.
