the stock you flashed was the MG4?
If its the MG4 u must flash it again and stay with mg4 modem.

ITS SO MESSED UP..
then i asked my friend to comeover so i can copy his EFS when i did, the pop up goes away and lockscreen works again, but still imei is a PROBLEM.. I ALMOST GIVE UP :crying:

Well, you surely should have a look at these:

I'm pretty sure anything that concerns this thread will be already answered in there.
These are also useful, and a must read (before any sort of flashing, any ROM download page will indicate so):

In the last thread, especially this:
Provide details - ALWAYS tell us exactly what happened if you are requesting help. Always describe in detail what is happening.
"Flashed my phone now it doesn't work" is useless information.
"I rooted my phone 3 months ago and flashed a custom ROM. I decided today to flash ROM X from recovery Y. I booted into recovery and flashed from my internal SD card. I rebooted the phone and it is not starting up. It is looping at the boot animation" is GOOD information. We need to know What, when, how. We need to know if you followed a guide and which one (links where possible)

I hope you will help me, thanks in advance!!!
Hi there and welcome to the forum.
Please create a more informative title next time, so people know what it is that you need help with.
I am in the same boat as you only with my GS3 LTE version. If you still have the box to get the IMEI from or look under the battery you might be able to restore your imei using an nv writer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117
Try to do a full wipe then reflash the stock rom with odin.
Good luck!
No sim, imei

Hi guys,
i'm an italian boy that has a galaxy s3 with a problem: i can't call or send messages because on the screen there is "not registered on network"
i do nothing, my phone is genuine...i didn't try to change rom or to do something...the problem is appared suddenly.
How can i fix the problem? imei code is intact and my telephone operator didn't block my phone or imei...
i know that in this forum there are some topics about this problem, but it is very difficult for me find them...
help me please...i haven't assistance...

Look for the serial, if it starts with 00000 or something like that, you nees to use Ariza Patch.

If it helps...
...my wife had this problem last week. Phone was saying that it was not registered on Network. Looked around on the net, checked settings on phone and found that if you turn the phone off for a few minutes and back on, it re-registered to the network. Very basic, don't know why it did it, but it's now OK

This is the problem: imei code is ok but there is "not registered on network"
About the other solution, i'm going to try it but i don't think it will work for me..
Is there a final solution? It is impossible that we can't solve the problem..
Thank you all..

After reading this forum, it looks like the phone has changed its IMEI after using ODIN. I now have an IMEI that starts with 0049. Help anyone please?

i got it fixed but i will tell u how it happened to me so u can connect the dots with ur problems ,,
i was on omega rom v49 but i wanted to return to stock and un root (4.1.2) to do some things i had a problem while restoring the cable disconnected but i started the process again and everything worked fine except for the network i couldn't call and when someone calls me it gives him that my phone is ringing and i got nothing (be aware u may have got many calls)
i tried some videos from the youtube and tried ariza patch (i dont no if i did it right or not i choose patch 5 and rebooted but nothing worked ) and flashed some modems but nothing

anyways here is the theory .. (what if we went way back to the first omega rom n kept upgrading till the latest one ... could it be the solution ... ??? LOOL its goofy but u know when ur desperate u think about some crazy stuff... so thats what i thought about ... coz there r many users who flashed older roms n it worked for them ... im just saying ... lets try to track our histories of our roms n c what happens ... thank u ..

[Q] Emergency Call Only After Flashing. IMEI, SN all normal. Help!

First of all, this is not my first time flashing a custom rom. I've been using different roms for months. Before this tragedy I was using MIUI as my primary rom and CM10.2 temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build - V10 as my secondary rom with Googy-Max Kernel 1.6.7 installed. Everything works perfectly fine. Yesterday I decided to install Resurrection Remix® v4.0.6 as my secondary rom. During the installation the installer asked me to choose one modem. And I randomly chose one of them. After that I rebooted my phone into secondary rom, but there was only black screen. Then I took out the battery, reboot it into my primary rom. UNFORTUNATELY, THE MOBILE SIGNAL WAS GONE. I tried to flash different modem/baseband and tried everything I can find on the internet. Now the signal shows" Emergency Call Only". I used Odin to restore my phone to stock rom, everything on my internal storage is gone BUT THE SIGNAL IS STILL "Emergency Call Only". The SN is normal (not all 00000000) but imei is wrong. Can someone tell me what the f*** is happening to my phone? Thank you so much! :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Update: I sent my phone to Samsung care. And they said some sort of chip on my phone is broken. And they charge me 200 dollar for replacement! Hell no! Any ideas??

Maybe look on the internal and external sd card for an efs backup. Maybe a rom you flashed took one.

The stupid thing is I didn't know efs before this. And there is a backup. But nothing happened after I restored it. Another thing is the Titanium Backup on my phone became a free version. It should be a premium one. Does that mean I lost my efs? Then how come I still got the correct IMEI and SN?
Well if your imei is intact what's the fuss ? stick to the newer base bands

If you didn't have efs backup then visit to service centre was 'a must' move.. Although I have no idea how much they charge , 200 $ kinda seems too much /// @rootSU should know better

No need for a efs backup now .. Your efs is already modified to the new version .... Just flash the modem in cwm and you are good to go :highfive:

Hi guys i have a similar problem
I just flashed TEMASEK's CM 10.2 v14 now, and lost my network connection.
I still can connect to wifi though.
IMEI number is still there.
Baseband - I9300BUEMD1
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Did you read the above, follow the links or try the solution?
My apologies, I was a little nervous.
From what I now understood, all i have to do is flash the attached modem (modem_RIL_CWM_I9300DDEMG2.zip) , correct ?
Edit:
Weird, suddenly the signal is back. Any possible explanations?

[S3 GT-i9300][Official Frimware 4.3 XEO] Problem with connecting to mobile operators

Hello,
Sometime ago i had a problem with my s3. It wouldnt turn on, and after pressing volume up+power+home i saw that some files were corrupted. Found the solution here and fixed it. But i flashed android 4.3 xeo while before i had 4.2.2 and now i can't connect to my mobile operators. I know i know, there are lots of topics like this ... are there really? I think i read everything i could find on this topic and tried the solutions but nothing helps.
To be precise:
* have full bars of connections
* i can make and receive emergency calls
* i can't make or take calls
* i can't make or receive text's
* my phone detects all operators in sight and when i want to connect it says succeeded, but in reality it didn't
* i even tried ariza patch, downloaded it and started it but it doesn;t show for me any "apply" or "patch" as i was expecting after reading tutorials,
* my imei is proper and wasnt changed in anyway
* my signal power changes so i quess that works too
Only thing i wasn't able to do is flash 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 because believe it or not there isn't any file on net i could find. All the websites that post having it disconnect downloading at 90% and says to try it tomorrow ( every day ) or buy premium.
Could some one tell me step by step if possible, how to flash newest archidroid (i have it on my other phone and i want it on s3 ) so that the network issue would be fixed? Or at least give me link to working stock firmwere 4.1.2
Thanks alot.
no one knows the fix?
Do not try to go back to earlier firmwares. Why? Modem MG4 repartitiones /efs partition so it finishes with bricked /efs so no imei and calls itp
So, how to flash custom rom? Firstly you need to root your device, e.g cf autoroot way, later flash custom recovery via odin and later its simple, just wipe data in recovery and flash zip (rom)

Your imei doesn't start 0049 or (unknown)?
Also as said by post #2 you shouldn't downgrade unless you can flash the older bootloader and efs v1
Secondly I can link you to 4.3 but you gotta tell us where are you using your phone (just country), otherwise I'll link you without the respective csc, but I can't guarantee the ROM I link won't contain country specific bloatware
Third and last, the two guys above are trying to help and your output is very rude and ungrateful, please know that this is a community forum, the community are the one helping you, again I'm js, don't bash me for helping you too, you can call it backdoor moderating, but I call it letting you know

Guys belive me. I'm not rude, in very polite way i'm informing author of 1st answer that he didnt read my post and answered questions i didnt ask, totaly off topic answer.

And lastly snkmv as shown in the quote no my imei is fine.
Also i do not need links to firmware 4.3 as i have 4.3 and the problem i spoke.
What i ask help with is fixing that problem.
I thought that maybe flashing 4.1 would fix.
So guys pls read my 1st post, read carefully all the bulletpoints and if anyone knows something pls help.
Yes so I commented what you want to do, it wasnt the answer for your question...i read your post... MG4 isnt 4.1? So I wanted to save ur phone bro, but if you know better... Later again if im not wrong NA1 was partitioning /efs so I just wanted to tell you not to flash earlier firmwares to not to brick your /efs totailly. It's not that simple as you thought "I'll install earlier firmware, may it will help, what may happen" - no, that's not on
And now yes, this post is so off topic, but it was just comment, we're here to help together, share advices together.
Bests, have a nice day
