since the rom you flashed is based on MG5 latest release, it changes efs partition into a new format.
1st simple step: check your apn settings.
is your imei okay?
if yes, then flash stock MG5 via odin and then root it and flash the same rom via mobile odin.

Critical you read the first two posts

Maybe I understand that I have an other EFS and so I should flash again my phone with EFSv2 baseband???

If you have ever flashed XXEMG* (or newer) ROM, to keep your IMEI working, you must:
Stay with the EFS v2 basebands (MG* or newer). You may flash other ROMs but must return to the MG* (or newer) baseband
Restore your EFS backup (taken before XXEMG* or newer ROM install) to use older (EFS v1) basebands. EFS backup must be an EFSv1 backup to use an EFS v1 baseband
If the above don't work, consider sending for repair

[Q] Can I flash another modem?

Hey, I just flashed latest 4.1.2 in my I9300 and after that When i flashed 4.2.2 XUFME7 I have the error "Emergency calls only", I think it`s probably from my baseband, probabily it modified my efs (being a new baseband, new format), so when I go to 4.2.2 which probably has a old baseband I get that error, my question is "Can I flash the latest baseband in 4.2.2?", If yes, how can I do that, is anyone have the latest baseband, can someone help me?
Can I flash the latest 4.1.2 baseband in 4.2.2? Where can I find this baseband?
Yes, you can find the XXEMG4 modem in general section
And efs and ROM itself are separated 2 parts, doesn't effect on each other except RIL but it's not big deal.
Main goal is related with EFS, if you have old EFS backup (before XXEMG4 ) then you can use any older modem as long as you want, of course you have to restore the old efs backup to make it compatible.
And if sadly you don't have old efs backup, you can still stick with XXEMG4 or higher modem, just flash modem after you flash ROM then you will be fine

Ok, but where exactly can I find xxemg4 modem flashable in odin? Cuz I don`t have a backup to my efs folder.
No efs bkup and you started flashing roms..o dear. Flash mg4 zip through recovery not odin. You need to read alot more before you break you phone

As above but why not just root it. You've just flashed a leaked firmware so why not root

No,kernel and recovery are separate. I have siyah kernel and philz recovery. Edit..just to add there is no custom kernel for 4.2.2 leak.

So, if I flash philz recovery with odin it will root my phone also? I don't mind rooting it, but I mind changing my kernel. Also, can I flash philz recovery when useing 4.2.2 stock rom? And believe me I used 4.2.2 XUFME7 stock rom.
try this go ahead and use odin but flash the leak again. yes reflash it but replace the baseband with any mg4 or mg2 that you like. sometimes flashing just the baseband wont work but flashing it as part if a rom will . the best thing imo is to just flash a stock rom from sammobile that uses an mg4 or mg2 baseband
No if you flash philz it wont root it but there is a zip to flash in philz thread. And no it wont change the kernel and yes you can use philz with 4.2.2

Hello, you're out of topic, I know what I have to do, but I don't find anyware a xxemg4 modem flashable in odin, I want that so I can update my phone back to 4.2.2 XUFME7. Now my questions are those from the above.

So that means I don't have to root to solve my problem, right? I just have to flash philz?
Correct. Cwm is the key. Then you can flash the zip.

First backup your efs and yes you can flash stock 4.1.2... but after flashing you won't have any network, then you should restore your efs.. And everything would be good to go.. Backup and Restoring can be done by Phils recovery or ktool from play store...

If you got the I9300 model with no sim lock- no problem.
Ps- notice that if your current build is below EMG4, than your file partition will be changed to EFSv2,
needs to be noticed if you'll try to go back to 4.1.2 afterwards

I think he can go back after flashing 4.3 ROM. I have done that.
Aashish, you can install any ROM as per your requirement if SIM is not locked with any SP.
But there is a chances of loosing IMEI. So please take backup. Search and download MG4 modem handy.

Yeah what you propose seems very straightforward BUT it would be advisable to do a full backup INCLUDING EFS, just check the EFS box in TWRP for instance, as it's not usually included in a backup by default.

Ah I get it now, in which case I would be tempted to go to an Indian 4.1.2 firmware through ODIN and the update through OTA if that's possible. That would reduce the chase of stuffing up your EFS by using an official Samsung update procedure.

Regarding i9300 imei null after update to any custom rom

Hello
Yes i have red all the posts about imei regarding i9300.
With me i have a strange case. the problem is i have my phone on 4.3 firmware and took efs backup in all the ways possible.
i can downgrade to any stock firmware.. 4.1.2 4.2.2 too. but i cant update to cm12 or cm 11 because if i did update then my baseband becomes null and there is no imei.
but as soon as i flash 4.3 rom i can have my imei and baseband.
I restored efs backup on cm12 but it had no effect.
Any help here will be accepted.
THank you
Flash modem efsv2
Check if you have efs v2 or v1.
I think you have v1.
If so flash a v2 modem or rom.

Is your device carrier unlocked originally? Or unlocked later? (i bet for the second version)
Anyway, try to restore efs and modem, and flash an AOSP/CM based rom (which has no modem.bin or modem.img inside the zip, its important! check it before flash).
If the signal come back, and you can make phone calls, then post your baseband version.
I am having the same issue.I was about to flash Stock firmware via odin.
Before i did a full wipe including internal storage (TWRP).
Now i have official 4.3 firmware with Imei .But Now Network not registered
My device : i9300
Bulid : JSS15J.I9300XXUGNB6
Baseband : :I9300XXUGNA8
PLEASE HELP!

the point is don't let the rom installer change the modem:
check in the updater-script file for modem change line, and delete it,
or delete the modem.bin from the zip
or change your patched modem in the zip
and after the rom, flash the boeffla kernel that fits to this rom's android version from here : http://www.boeffla-kernel.de/
i think this is it : http://boeffla.df-kunde.de/sgs3/boeffla-kernel/Stable_kk444/Series%207.x/7.6/boeffla-kernel-7.6-Samsung-i9300.recovery.zip.
