Hi!
I tried different ICS rom's for my GT-P7500, (the UK and Italian versions)
All the time i got no PIN screen for my simcard, nor can't i add a APN.
Also when plugging in the USB i get a "missing hardware-id"
Hope someone can get me on track here.
BTW: Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P7500 (3G/WiFi Netherlands T-Mobile)

do you really flashed a rom for the 7500. I ask because when you flashed a ROM for the 7510 (wifi only models) you get the same error. everything works except 3g.
Please post some more details of your current rom which have this error.
These are not working for me (got the Ita en UK ones froms Sammobile) see below:
GT-P7500 Italy 2012 July Android 4.0.4 P7500XXLQ8 P7500OXALQ8
Indeed the UK one was for the 7510, hope i didn't mess up my tab

how do you flashed? with Odin?
Try to flash the stock rom for your gtab. After that, flash the Italy version for the gtab.
By the way: have you root your tab or installed a custom kernel?
Id it all...
From stock via Odin, Root, ICS
All the resets needed and so on...
Not realy a N00B overhere, got loads of experience but this is blowing my mind
Even did a try HEX-editing the files in /elf/ (and yes backing it up b4)
Back to stock now and 3G is fine.
As I have a p7501 I can't really test it, but I will try it tomorrow.
What I've tested is the jelly bean rom out of the dev section. It's ics 4.0.4 based on the Italy room. Really closed to the stock. 3g works fine on my gtab. May have a look.
So if the italy ics firmware file is not corrupt, I've no answer till now.

Well, i found out my Device ID / Serial number are gone.
Anyway to restore it?
(also mailed Samsung and waiting for their answer)
Do you have a backup of your efs folder?
I mean as you said you are not a noob and have loads of experience.. I do have a backup of my efs.. Of every single device I own... If you flashed a wifi only rom you even lose you imei and so that's why your 3G is not working
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Yes got backups...
Thanks for this suggestion!
Gonna restore an old /efs/ but furst have to see the read/write rights on these files inside.
i bought a s3 GT-9300 in used.i knew nothing abt android world..the os was 4.1.2 so i upgraded to 4.3 {I9300XXUGMK7}. i belongs to pakistan.after that not registered on network but IME was ok.. i knew nothing so i Google it i found that its lock due to unofficial firmware which was for isreal i guess.
mean while i found that ariza patch can fix that problem.so i rooted and inserted ariza patch .after that my IME changed to null.so i decided to again install same I9300XXUGMK7.it backs my IME.after that i decided to downgrade to pakistan offical frameware from sam mobile.when i do that .it changes my ime to 0049.....so i againupgrade to 4.3(so it can take back my IME) and bring to repair man.he take handsome amount from me that is 35 USD..and he downgrade it 4.1.2 and changed everything that is build no scs etct.the pic are attched i found my cell rooted with cmw.(screenshot attched)
NOW the problem is he said i cant upgrade to 4.3 which is not released in pak officaly yet but whenever it will launched officially i cant upgrade it.i will only able to upgarde newer than 4.3(it mean year or more)
i am afraid of ariza patch .i downloaded official firmware for pak and i wants to install that but i am afraid that if i would that it will again corrupt my efs folder.and again i have to spend 30 USD.
NOW THE QUESTIONS ARE
CAN I ABLE TO GET RID OFF ARIZA PATCH AND INSTALL OFFICIAL FIRMWARE FOR PAKISTAN SO I CAN UPGRADE WHEN 4.3 LAUNCHED IN PAK BY KIES?
OR SHOULD I STOP AND DO LET IT GO AND USED 4.1.2.
(AFTER THIS I GOOGLE EVERYTHING THAT IS KERNAL IME EFS PID ODIN.AND GATHER SMART KNOWDLGE OF WHAT I HAVE DONE.
SO CAN ANYBODY GUIDE ME PLZ.)
I READ THREAD HERE THAT I CAN REST FACTORY ROM ETC WITH S3.I NEED HELP
If you update or flash a stock firmware you will break all the patches and unlock, if the handset is network locked..
There is no real solution to a broken efs folder apart from restoring a backup, from before it was broken.

Hi all,
Please could someone advise the best method to backup my unrooted baseband before I root.
I previously rooted my old s3 then accidently flashed the wrong stock fw onto it and broke it by upgrading the baseband so it couldn't get a singal, need to avoid this
Thanks in advance

I doubt that you can backup it without root, whereas you could note down your current one and just download it from general sections baseband thread.

Hello everybody
I am new in this forum so please don't hate.
I hade S3 with orginal branded system but it was very slow so i wanted to get orginal rom without branding. I gave my phone to my uncle and he roted it and instaled TWRP (teamwin), galaxy apps and namless rom. This rom is a custom room and it has a lot of problems like: sometimes camera isin't working, widgets are invisible, galaxy apps weren' working (so i made a mistake and deleted it and now other google apps like YT aren't working) and there are a lot of another bugs. I have Odin and orginal version of non branded system from SamMobile. My question is do I need to do unroot before pluging telephone to pc and using odin or this is unnessery? I am new in xda and I don't now much about programing and stuff like this. So please help me!!
I would not use the image file from SamMobile to repair this issue. If you give me your exact model and serial off the sticker under battery, I can get you the Service files you need to COMPLETELY fix your issues.
And NO, your not going to need to unroot the device if you use the Service Files. It will under it for you!
Please let me know!
You can just flash the same rom over it to repair it.
You can flash with odin but im not 100% about debranding. If the phone is unlocked you should be ok using a btu (international) rom.
Make sure you know your efs version if you plan on flashing anything less than 4.3.
The answer to your question is no. You do not need to unroot but you WIll lose root.

The best way is to tell your uncle to restore stock firmware debloated.
Otherwise,find out your baseband version and model number and search xda for the CORRECT rom and flash it using ODIN.
