If you've wiped and back to stock then sounds like hardware, service centre required.

Depends on your flash counter, warranty and condition of the phone.

Flash counter 0, warranty 6-7 months left, awseome condition not a single scratch...

Warranty ple3ase read the how to return to stock for warranty thread .
More than just rom counter invalidates warranty

Same here. Flashed the early AOKP ROM and had problems with the .gapps FCs so I flashed back the stock ROM. I hope we can make some headway on resetting the flash counter.
Anybody else?

no nothing
You need warranty then. Reset counter with triangle away, flash back original firmware and send it back to samsung.

To the OP:
I don't mean to be rude but A bit more info is needed "than my speaker don't work" if u want guys to try help u on here.
You need to let people know stuff like:
**what firmware is on ur phone,
**did u flash something?
**Did u drop ur phone?
**Did it get wet?
Otherwise ur post will be ignored and get lost in the flurry of xda.

That would void warranty if you mean what you say .

[Q][FIX] no network after Odin flash..FIX avaliable!!!

-----------------old post-------------My problem-----
HI everyone ....
i am not new to XDA but new to s3......
why does my brand new galaxy s3 which i bought yesterday has Vodafone apps and widgets.... its international then why..i bought this from Pakistan and there is NO such carrier as VODAFONE in Pakistan. i bought this its was brand new sealed.
info= pebble blue
=16gb
=baseband=i9300bulg2
build=imm76d.i9300bublg3
also i know the baseband is of another country and might be able to flash and remove this but my question is why.......................this phone was completly brand new sealed when i opened it yesterday and has vodaphone apps (bloatware) like wth..... ....... should i send it back or something lol.
EDIT = FLASHED UK ROM NOW I HAVE ANY NO NETWORK SIGN
UPDATE= SO AFTER THE NO SIGNAL ISSUE THE PHONE HAS BEEN SHOWN TO MANY TECHNICIANS BY THE SELLER AND FINALLY I WILL GET MY PHONE BACK TOMORROW ITS PRACTICALLY USELESS AND NO
SIGNAL TILL NOW GONNA FLASH FIRMWARE THAT IT CAME WITH ...TOMORROW....THATS MY ONLTY CHANCE.....
Update 3---- flashed stock firmware ....same.....but now it's says no service and that no signal sige
UPDATE--4 fixxed it with a modem patch..
-----------------new post below----http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601-----
HERE IS THE fix^^^
You'll probably find its bought from the UK or anywhere else in Europe, flashed in Pakistan, then made available to sell....just flash UK firmware and it should be fine
anyone interested in blu-ray steelbooks, holla at your boy
You have bought a Vodaphone SGS3 .
Why you need to ask the seller .
As said looks like you have been sold an import .
jje
My s3 is a Vodafone import. Use galaxsim unlock to check if it's not networked locked. But since you can use your aim straight out of the box you should be good. Then Just flash a rom as speedyjay suggested.

Have you checked to see if the phone is network locked? Download galaxsim from the market and check your status.

Use one of the many efs tools and back up your efs, just in case it messes up. Then flash theroom again, then wipe data.

Just saw your post about nv_data error. If the stock flash isn't working it may be time to visit the Samsung service centre.
Try downloading roms from other countries, if it doesn't work then the service centre is your only option.

I have installed custom ROM on my phone and my mum has rang Samsung and said Samsung are going to repair the signal problem with out telling me but she doesn't know I've voided the warranty. What will Samsung do once they realise its void?

Hi everybody, whenever I try to switch to my front camera on my phone I get the cannot connect to camera error. Does anyone know what the issue is? It doesn't matter whether I'm on stock Samsung or cm10.1 either :/

Stock Samsung should not have this problem, known issue in CM and AOSP if I am not wrong though. Did you try wipes?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
If you've flashed back to stock with a factory reset and it's still the same then probably hardware failure.

See the stickied How to return to stock for warranty guide .
Your phone vendor or Samsung will tell you if the repair is under warranty .
