I tried flashing the unofficial LG Ginegerbread update, and since then I can't disable the airplane mode. I get no cell reception. I even restored from a backup to mik's cyanogen mod, no luck there either. Then finaly used a KDZ update to restore to stock LG Rom, and even there I get no cell reception. What can I do?
I think you flashed wrong radio (not fmradio the baseband). Flash unofficial gingerbread made by Andy its there somewhere in the post maybe. Or clean flash a rom with formatting /system.

Nope. Formatted using clokworkmod recovery and installed mik's gingerbread. But it still doesn't work.
EDIT: Just noticed that in about phone it says that the baseband version is unknown. Is that normal? If not how to flash new baseband?

Flashed a kdz v10H . But even on stock rom i get no gsm connection. On the stock rom even the bluetooth doesn't work.
EDIT: Just noticed that the phone doesn't recognise my sim card. Tried it on another phone and the card worked.
Managed to fix it. I used the program that I used to flash the leaked 2.3.3 rom. And restored the nv2 file. Note to self: Read first, ask questions later. I found this solution in the main thread for this rom.

Hi there! I have the same problem just that I can't nv restore the phone because I didn't back it up. Do you still have the nv backup file so you can attach it here? so I can fix my damn phone.. Thanks!
hello,
i am facing same issue as people above... and i am afraid i dont have any NV2 file for restore... could you please tell me what to do now
GUYS,
i am really now strugelling with this hell machine....
i am lost like in hell.... still without gsm signal, i have tried so many combinations but nothing... maybe i did it even worse because if my experiments...
so currently, my status is that i have flashed 2.3.3 russian leaked version.... i played a bit with IMEI RESTORE_1.2b app, tried to restore my IMEI... but accidentaly, now my IMEI in LGMDP says 35404304088138-2-353, where (-2-353) was not there previously... so i am thinking what i did wrong... i also cannot restore any NV files, it says NV backup file does not exists...
completely lost in this maze...
Is there anybody who could help me to go out of it PLEASE?
Step by step... ?
from really cleaning of my mobile, deleting everything ,installing rom + fixing gsm fix...
i know there is a lot of tutorials, but as i wrote, i probably did it worse than it was in the beginning so i would appreciate deep and exact steps for dumbass like me
I am ashamed, but still hope for getting it to work back again...

i tried to create NV2 file with IMEI same as my phone... and flashed it over LGMDP as flash image - NV file, but no success.... also i cannot restore any NV files, it says NV files does not exists
---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------
i think i do something bad and the NV2 do not go into the phone.... it says all good, NV restore complete etc, it shut down the phone, but still no gsm
i triedto create new NV2 file over KS20 tool, with "11111" in the IMEI number , and flash it via steps i described, but when i look into the phone there is still the old one... so definitely i am not doing it correctly

I dont think you can select nv2 file directly from lgmdp.
put the file in this order n try
create new folder
rename folder: <your_imei_(on_which_nv2_is_created)>
create new folder in <your_imei_(on_which_nv2_is_created)> named <port no.> on which your phone is connected (ex:for com4 name folder as " _COM_4_" (without quotes)
now place nv2 file in this folder <port no.>
so now u r nv2 file is in
" \<your_imei_(on_which_nv2_is_created)>\<port no.>\ "
then try to flash file from lgmdp .
I m not sure whether its gonna work or not but if u r interested give it a try bcoz i found my backed nv2 file stored in this pattern,

i am not flashing any baseband, right now, i selected gingerbread 2.3.3 leaked russian, i selected delete EFS ALL at the bottom, also marked default NV file when selecting this firware... now flashing is in process
edit:.....
so, sucesfully flashed, in LGMDP now i have again my IMEI back as ( original IMEI number 35404304088138 which is good i think) .... i can also click on NV restore it shows some NV files from the morning etc....

hi, days ago my sgs2 stop to read sim card. when i go to preferences there are no imei no imei sv and no baseband version. i tried to copy my backuped /efs folder in my phone with adb shell but nothing happened when i rebooted my phone. do you think it is an hardware problem?
Wrong thread.
But download a rom from samfirmware. They usually contain an efs file. Flash that with Odin and you'll be fine.

flashed just now. same problem. com.android.phone crashed on boot
Are you rebooting with power cable attached? I see that all the time.
Did you see the efs recovery thread?

You have a corrupt kernel.
Same happened to me when using mobileodin (which has now been updated)
Phone screen went a funny white colour, no boot, wouldn't charge, no recovery...****ting my pants...Only had download mode working.
I then got home and used PC and Odin flash a fresh kernel in download mode and all was good again.
Very lucky!!! Good luck to you my friend!

And if you restore using galaxy toolbox make sure you reset custom bin count and reboot your phone.
If nothing works, flash stock rom and try.

Please tell me you backed up EFS before installing?
OP check IMEI is correct if not restore your backed up EFS folder .
No backup take to a service centre for repair .
Fail to read the faqs and guides leads to problems .

Please don't blame others for a problem that is 99.99% your fault. Read before you flash. Unfortunately looks like its gonna need a service. And you don't have a warranty. So I recommend flashing stock and then heading to Samsung.
I fllash a stock ROM via Kies ; but phone still bricked.
Unfortunally my efs backup have been corrupted during installation.
Flashing a stock ROM would never help, unless you flashed the MG4 one. Thats the one you should flash because thats the one that contains the only baseband (Well one of two anyway) that can read the EFS after modified. If you're not on MG4 now, at least flash that before seding it for repair, just to rule out having the incorrect modem. If that doesn't work, not much will. Repair centres can repair this stuff pretty easily and cheaply though
EMG4 can't read my EFS, et Stoxk restoration via Kies don't work... :crying:
---------- Post added at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 AM ----------
Ouch ; reinstall the UltimaROM with EMG4 et Boeffla Kernel, and network came back
phewwww
Now you must stay on mg2 or mg4 baseband.

I made the same mistake as you did, I did not backup the EFS on my international S3. Here's a solution that worked for me. I don't know if this was because my previous ROM was Samsung-based, or any other mysterious force, but after restoring my previous ROM from recovery mode, my phone is back to normal. I mean the IMEI is a match and the cell signal/3gsignal is back to normal.
So before you try anything with your phone, or send it to Sammy, try and recover your previous ROM from recovery. Then, during installation of the Shiva ROM, make the damn EFS backup when it asks you to.

Must be coincidence as a normal nandroid backup doesnt backup efs. Philz can backup efs in a custom job. No idea about TWRP and who cares about CWM?!

TWRP does indeed have this feature. seems that CMW is falling waaaaaaaaay behind, although TWRP for me backs up to data so if you wipe/factory data reset it deletes the backups too, correct me if i am incorrect :good:

I think its not for many, I mean it has a ton of features but the honest truth is i I don't think they are working for 'usable' recovery as it seems that putting the backups in /data was a rushed concept as it gets deleted at every new ROM install, unless someone knows how to configure it?

No unless you specifically backed up EFS by some method .
No EFS read the EFS guide in the stickys or take to a service centre .

If you've corrupted your efs folder, so serial is lost, then just restore your efs backup. There is no way to get your serial number back otherwise.

Dear boomboomer,
I know how to take an efs back up.i was asking him so that i could help him because i have a little know how of EFS PRO and have restored my lost imei by that.
ok everybody, thank u for droping by. i have instaled other rom but without ariza patch i would be lost. i hope there is another solution to install that patch with recovery and not by app it self. efs pro was used to backup nfs. imei is there but serial is 0000000000000000000000000000000000000 !!!!!!!
