Hello guys,
Greetings from Bulgaria. As i search forum for how to repair my phone and i saw this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1912813, and want to ask you this:
A little bit history, i purcahse my SGS3 16GB international secon hand, and it was with XXELLA official ROM rooted, but i try to flash it with leak of 4.2.2 with ODIN. After the flash the phone boot up but all the prgrams were there, and nothing lost. Because I didn't like the leak i try to flash with stok 4.1.2 with ODIN, but the phone didn't boot up but freeze on samsung logo. I enter the stock recovery and did a full wipe, and after that the problems begins. After boot up I notice that i have "no network" issue but only the "Emergency call". Well i find out that my IMEI is not coruptted tho OS shows the same as under the battery, but my S/N is turning to zeros: 0000000000000. I flashed several Custom and Official ROMS but the problem still exist. I searched xda-developers and find out the ARIZA patch, thank sensierly to Ariza for his work, and with that I have network signal and everything is OK but my S/N still zeros. Well the problem is that after every flash I have to patch Bootloader with Ariza's patch. So my question is can you help me to recover my S/N ? I want to notice that I have severals EFS backups but I made it after the problem shows up. May be is little bit long but thank you guys for your time in advance. Sorry for my bad english.

My GS2 suddenly got stuck in flightmode did a hard reset now shows no service!!!
has no baseband what should i do
I've not rooted my phone neither used any custom rom's please help
Thanking in anticipation
If you've not rooted your phone nor flashed any custom firmware on it, best bit of advice I can give you is send it in for warranty service. You risk losing your warranty if you try many of the 'fixes' on here.
If you do try these & they don't work, you'll end up paying to have your phone fixed, whereas now you should be able to have it fixed under warranty.
hello,
unfortunately it's past warranty period, what do you suggest now?
thanks
Since your out of warrenty then you could give this a try:-

Look for XWKF3
and download the correct firmware for your region.
Follow the instructions given on the same page to install it.
[Edit].. Power off then go into recovery first and data/factory reset before installing firmware..( 3 button combo(volume up-home-power)) to get into recovery.

Only you know why no IMEI in regards to the past firmware on your phone . Crystal ball not working today .
No baseband possibly you never flashed modem.
IMEI restore your backed up EFS no backup try factory restore .
That fails service centre .

from the phone pad dial *#06#
This will give you your IMEI Number
If the number is 004999010640000
then this is the fake IMEI that is assigned to the phone if the nv_data.bin file is messed up.

If its a different number
Then remove the battery and check the underside of the phone
your IMEI number is written here...Does it match!!
If stiil not working then it needs to go into the service centre
Did you flash a modem? Do it. If you don't see the baseband still try this:
Airplane mode ON. Power off, take out battery for 5 minutes. Put it back. power on. Airplane mode off.
no i"ve not flashed the modem, it's got NO iMEI
thanks all for your time.
Flashed my phone with latest Lite'ning Rom, everything is fine now.
I hope you've backed up your EFS stuff.

Could you tell me where you got your lightning ROM from and how you did it? I am facing the same problem and tried flagging xwke8 and xwkf3 but both didn't work.
Thanks,

I'm having the exact same problem..... please advice!
Hello guys,
I`ve been watching all this topics for a while cuz I have some problems with my Galaxy S3. I`ll tell you what i did.
All worked fine, had the 4.1.1 official rom + root, then i wanted to go to 4.1.2 so i flashed an UK stock ROM. After that i kept getting the "Sim has been removed" error need restart bla bla.. so i search all around for a fix.. i changed 2 SIM cards and nothing. Then I flashed a Poland version 4.1.2 Stock. That version was better but I encountered the "Call ended" error.. calls would end after 3-4mins or i could not call at all. Then i flashed (and this is when the problem started) Stock Vodafone Spain and got "No network". I must say my IMEI/ SN all are intact.
Then I patched only radio modem from the UK ROM with Odin, but with "PHONE" option (i know i did wrong).. i wanted to change only the modem and it worked cuz i checked with *#1234#.. but from that moment not even one ROM has worked in showing me the network. On About phone says "Network: Unknown". Sometimes it connects to Vodafone but when I try to call says "No network service".
Now my phone is in second service and they can`t make it get a network on. They tryed the neverlock thing but i think was already unblocked.
I tryed rooting and using this Ariza. and were 2 versions there.. I tryed v5 only and didnt worked.
I tried the ##72786# and I get the following message: Connection Problem or invalid MMI code (found somewhere that for this code i need to have Wifi on to work?)
Now i`m thinking to get my phone back and dunno reflash with a good .pit file ? or just reRoot and try v4 Ariza.. I`m really sad, it`s been 5 days and I can`t think on nothing else to do.. I even called Samsung official service and they said to send it to them.
If you have any idea, pls need help. tnx
Check your IMEI is the same as under the battery .
Samsung will reject warranty .

you are right.. IMEI and SN are not the same.. pff what to do now?
Restore your backed up EFS folder.
jje
But i think i backed up the EFS folder with the modified IMEI. What can i do now?
nothing. replace the motherboard
SOLVED!
Ok so tnx to JJEgan i checked all the IMEI numbers and only 2 of them were modified. Thing is before I pached the v5 Ariza, I did a EFS backup with that program. That backup img saved my phone.
Firstly I got my phone back from service with 4.2.1 official ROM (thats nice, cost me 0 $ ). I rooted with CF-Auto and used Ariza patch (v4). But my imei was still wrong so after that I used EFS_Backup_Restore_new_ADB.rar to restore my IMEI/SN with the old EFS backup then I used another programEFS Professional v2.0. I checked the option to repair No network and clicked Restore. After that I restarted my phone and I got the messages from provider with APN settings and so on.
Thank you for the help :good:
worked till first restart... now No network again, I`m not a samsung/android fan anymore..
Please read before posting read this and that...
I read somewhere that a firmware from another country will not matter, so I installed the Croatian 4.3 android on my S3 and since then I wasn't able to make any calls except 'Emergency calls only'. The 4.3 was xxugmj9, and the modem was something similar but I can't remember. My IMEI and S/N stayed the same, and still are the same! Then I downloaded 4.1 stock rom and installed it via odin - xxemg4 and also the xxemg4 modem. IMEI still same, but no network (I DO have network signal, but it just says not registered on network when I try to dial a number).
I got suggestions that my /efs changed to another format, but I don't have my efs backed up before I installed the new firmware thinking nothing can go wrong... Also when I go to Search networks I can select my nretwork which I use and it gives me a message 'Registered on network' but as soon as I close that I have the '!' mark in my drop-down menu...
So the actual question is what rom/modem, what can I do, if anything, to fix this? ..oh an I've also tried the ARIZA patch, which did not work as well.
I have made an efs backup now, better at one point then never.
Giving screen shot just in case I'm doing something wrong..
You need to install the patched MG4 modem that is floating around here somewhere. Try that for a start

Making a new thread won't change the answers you've already been given.
Flashing random things without understanding them will only damage your phone further, like ariza patch.
Take it to a service centre for repair is your best option as you are incapable of reading searching or following XDA rules .

Hi. To answer you question, you may try this:
First you must root your phone and install custom recovery TWRP.
Here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/rooting-tutorial-kitkat-t2835605
And here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/len...oot-install-twrp-custom-recovery-kit-t2849538
Now go to my post How about some modems, here:https://drive.google.com/folderview...&usp=sharing&tid=0B2ORIgaV4iacOVpDTDcxYW4taDQ
Download and flash ONLY the ones from EUROPA.
Good Luck.
hello. for now still no sucess, the message "unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped" keeps pop up, i tried several modems and none of them work. i will go on trying and them i will give feed back. thanks for the help
hello, maybe could you help me. i returned to the previous version that i had, installed, which is version X-viberom by xakep. the baseband version for that rom is the V52, which i presume is for chinese version. i think that the x-Viberom as chinese version for base.
with that baseband i never had any problem with the SIM cards, the two work without any problem .
the question that i would like you to help me is the following: with that baseband V52 i have to install a chinese rom or is it possible to install that modem over a ROW version ?
thank you very much for the help
hello. i already solve the problem, and after all it was so easy. i disable automatic date and time and automatic time zone and went to apps, phone and then i perfomr clear data and voila, the phone works perfect. thank you for all
Hey everyone!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge G925F that will not connect to a cellular network and wont display my IMEI serial number or SIM Status.
I have tried everything:
Flashing Stock ROM with ODIN (Just get a fail)
Flashing multiple modems and AP's
Backing up and restoring my efs
The phone still boots and I have backups of my supposedly corrupted EFS
This happened after flashing a 5.1.1 rom in ODIN
My stock rom is: G925FXXS4DPIB
Nothing works. Please I need help and I dont have access to a Octopus box to re write my efs either, is there a way I can fix it.
When I put my phone into diagnostic phone with qualcomm's tools I just get a "Device has malfunctioned" error, I'm using Windows 10 64bit

The imei app your talking about only masks the imei number and doesn't permanently change it back to what it was. Thanks for trying to helping though
