[Q] No Service Issue

My i9100 suddenly started showing "No Service" message. What should i do ?
# I'm using P.A.C Rom
# Cleaned cache/delvik and done factory reset. But problem still there
# IMEI is correct but serial number is 'unknown'.
Have you tried restoring a nandroid? I'm also on PAC atm, and haven't had any issues with signal.
Else, try a clean reflash of the ROM.

It worked well before. I don't have any previous backups. Yes i tired re-flash as well. Any other solution ?
Suddenly i noticed network is connected and received a SMS. But when i try to take a call it went back to "No Service".
It could be because of incompatible RIL and baseband. Did you happen to change these recently by any chance?
Don't flash any ril if you're on 4.2. Ril is only ok if you're on stock.
What you can try is to flash the stock ROM for your country /carrier. See if the problem persists .
And just a word of advice, always have a backup ready to go.

Flashed official firmware with Odin. But problem still exists. I noticed strange thing. One of my SIM cards working on it. But 2G network. Sometimes shifts to 3G but can't hold also signal strength is low. When i put other SIM it says Not registered on network (cant manually register even)
Did you definitely flash the firmware released for your carrier & region? Sounds to me like you may have flashed firmware intended for another carrier or region.
Try flashing a few modems. Look at which modems your carrier released for your region, start with those. Then, move onto o re her local carriers etc. If you still don't have any luck, go all our and flash whatever modem you can get your hands on (make sure it's compatible first obviously).
It may sound like a lot of work, but unfortunately there's no quick fix for something like this if flashing stock didn't work.
Oh wait. If you did actually flash a different stock rom, flash the correct one first. If you did get the right one first off, start flashing modems.

Ya. I flashed correct firmware. I'll try some more custom ROMS as well. With this ROM i can get 3G and 2G networks. Data also working. But signal is low. You think its a modem issue ?

[Q][HELP] Galaxy S3 emergency calls only

Hello guys, I have read many topics about this and I have a problem. I flashed 4.1.2 stock firmware over that same firmware that was installed ( i deleted some files like all share that i need again) and now I can't connect to network, it says it has registered but in the notifications i have Unable to connect to my carrier.
The phone is factory unlocked and i have backed up my EFS and tryed to restore but nothing. The SIM card is working, i tried in other phone, i also tried downloading and installing the original phone firmware also 4.1.2 from Kies, but nothing.
My IMEI is correct, also my S/N is correct, it is not generic or 000000..
I have also tried the ARIZA patch but nothing. I am having the signal and everything is working but i cannot register to network.
How can i fix this guys, and please, don't say search, believe me I've searched alot.
Some more information:
current rom (originally shipped with phone): I9300XXEMG4
One set your mobile network up manually .
Two flash stock rom with correct modem and csc for your network .
Contact your network .
Return phone to vendor or take it to a service centre .

I tried manually set up network, tried manual APN's, also tried flashing stock rom for my network and generic international firmware, nothing worked.
I'll try flashing EMG4 modem to see if it will work.
Edit: EMG4 modem already installed, so not working.
Edit2: I tried ARIZA patch v06, is it only for 4.3 or does it work on 4.1.2 android, i know that v05 is for 4.1.2 but i can't find link anywhere, does anyone have link to version 05 of ARIZA patch?
Edit3: Tried ARIZA patch v05 and IMEI got 00499... going to get it serviced.

I'll take it to local servicer, not to official service, yes i have waranty but it is in another country, and by local servicer it'll cost me around 15$ to fix this and it's better than me going to another country and wait like 2 weeks to get it solved
I had this problem too. Is your SD card slot working?
Both slots (sim and SD card) where broken on my S3.
In the Service Centre they replaced the mainboard. After that all was working again.
Don't forget to reset the counters and flash a original ROM from samsung through Odin.
Good luck.

Emergeny calls Out of service area

Hello everyone,
First of all i want to thank you for all this guides that i was trying to use here
So here's my story.
I got Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 with bootloop issue so i decide to fix this by myself.
I was trying to install fimware using KIES but i doesn't fix my issue.
Then i was trying to search for right rom on several websites.
The right one and only working one was 4.0.4 with orange brand logo.
So i was excited that its finally working
Then i realize that my imei is null and my sim card is not working.
So i was trying to restore EFS using several tools and methods.
Finally i got it default IMEI 0049 but it was still not working.
My phone is not qualcomm based model so i cannot use nv item reader writer as it's required to edit IMEI
Even after applying phonutil patch my device is not being recognize as Qualcomm one.(because it's not)
So i was still looking for another way to change my imei manually as i have my original one on the box and under battery.
Finally I realized that i cannot make even Emergency calls it comes with message Out of service area.
So i was trying to apply few modem and radio updates to my phone but none of them are helping.
Anyone have similiar issue?
I have another Galaxy S3 that is working can i copy imei or whole system to my not working phone?
I know that after that i cannot use other device, but thats ok if its possible.

Have you tried patched modem and kernel? Did you read the guides on xda >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-imei-efs-stuff-i9300-including-t2393289 << and no you cannot copy imei from another phone.

I tried everything from this guide.
Regarding patch:
4.0.4-I9300BVALE4 firmware is the only one working on my Samsung
Patched modem and kernel that i found and try it are XXUGMK6.
Maybe they are different one or dedicated to my firmware

The reason you can't make calls is because at some point your phone software was on 4.3 this means your efs as changed to efs v2. Now because your current firmware is at 4.0.4 then your efs can't read this because 4.0.4 is efs v1. So you need to get a 4.3 stock rom onto your phone (I know you said only 4.0.4 works) but what are you using install firmware are you using Odin? If so what errors are you getting installing with Odin.
The patched modems and kernels are for 4.3 so they won't work on 4.0.4 or any other apart from 4.3
I was trying so many of them but its always ends with samsung logo loop it doesn' matter if i'm
do things like wipe cache, factory settings etc everytime its not working.
Even on 4.0.4 only this one rom is working.
Im always using ODIN, with KIES its always ends with samsung logo loop.

Ok a couple of things you could try (if you haven't already) I presume you have a custom recovery? Try flashing a custom stock 4.3 with recovery I suggest this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/rom-sammys-stock-deodexed-rooted-t2585670 << This is as close to stock as possible but can be flashed with a custom recovery like Cwm,PhilZ,Twrp etc. You will also need to flash a 4.3 modem for this which is included in the thread. If the modem in the thread does not give you a signal (presuming the rom boots ) then keep the same custom rom but flash a patched modem and kernel on top with your custom recovery.
Don't forget to factory reset after flashing!
If none of that works you can always try the rescue firmware here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6 << obviously flash the 4.3 one. Hope that helps
Thank you very much for your help i will try this and let know here if it's working

So issue is still exist.
I can discover any network when i choose network its even says"registred on network" but then if im trying to choose some number im having error message that im not registred or if emergency call "out of service area".
Any ideas what still can i try ?

[Q] Galaxy SII: Error While Searching for network- On all custom roms

hey guys!
I have samsung galaxy s2 gt-I9100. Whenever I install a custom rom, everythings works fine but i am not able to use mobile network and i received "Error while searching for networks" when I go to settings>>Mobile networks>>network operators. The IMIE number is fine.
I have tried many roms including:
--cm-10.1.3-i9100
--cm-11-20140804-SNAPSHOT-M9-i9100
--pa_i9100-4.42-20140708
--pa_i9100-4.45-20140729
--Slim-i9100-4.4.4.build.9.0-OFFICIAL-8301
The last rom which worked fine was RootBox-JB-i9100-V4.0. All roms released after this rom have this issue.
I have searched for issue on google and tried various solutions but so far no success.
Please Help!
And can you guys suggest me any rom which is not based on CM?
Go to settings-->about phone and look for "Baseband version"
If it says "unknown" or similar you may need to reflash the modem before you flash the rom.
Or even worse you might need to do a reboot (it actually worked once).
Also do emergency calls work? If yes then it might be a problem with your sim card or you contract (or just bad luck).

The Baseband version is visible and a valid one. Also my sim works on stock rom or any other phone.
SInce I have no idea what the cause could be, here are some random things to try out, of which one might work:
-make sure you're not in airplane mode
-do a full complete wipe
-try a different sim (and see if it works)
-make sure the sim is not upside down
-fully shutdown the phone (e.g remove battery for a day [maybe not that long])
-clean contacts between sim and phone (how? no idea)
-try (even-) more roms (if there are any left)
-test a few kernels
-maybe look through the logcat (if it actaully outputs something worthwhile)
As you can see none of these "soloutions" are based on.....uhmm....anything(?). But at least....if none of them work, you know what not to do.

Perhaps you could flash back to stock rom then flash custom rom again, that way all modem files and network related files can be fixed/re-installed. By any chance have you tried changing modems? It might not help you but it's a suggestion.

Full signal but cannot make calls

Hi, i have about 1 month trying to get work a LS990 that i bought in ebay to sim unlocked and use it outside the US, i have followed every possible guide in this forum and still cannot make it work.
I am using the file replacement method with the modified files, and it works, the sim card is recognized and if i go to the network info appears the carrier network info. I get full signal but when i try to make a call, it ends immediately and appears the message "call ended".
I have tried over and over again, setting the RAT mode to automatic and Network mode to automatic, tried with ZVA,ZV8 and ZV4, same result, tried with different sim cards of different carriers also.
The bands are compatible with the carriers where i live, since i have acknowledgement of other people with this model working ok, what i am missing here?
Thanks in advance.
Just flash one of the GSM roms like Killaprime's. I recommend V4.7 as V5 and V6 have major problems/Ui glitches. And 4.7 is the closest to stock LG software
Those file replace methods never work

Just flash it and pop in the sim card? I already tried the version 6.0 and it didn't work. Any other steps required to get it work?

Ok, i just flash the rom, same result, i got signal but cannot make or receive calls, when a try make a call after 1 or 2 seconds it ends automatically, one thing i notice is that now when i try to change the network mode to any of the GSM bands, it changes successfully, with other stock or customized roms it always fail.
Let me know if i am wrong, i notice that the IMEI number seems to not be a "normal" IMEI. Can that be what the problem is?
I just fix it, indeed the problem was that rare IMEI, luckily i had a full backup before the very first rom flash including the EFS folder, everything is working ok now.
