First of all you must have "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc/mmcblk0p7le" this file from your working rom.
After you flash a custom rom if your İmei or network problem copy that file to same place with root explorer.
Robot the phone.
The İmei and network will come back.
Yep
if it just was that easy
I get my imei back. After i flash gazi rom my imei change to 0004.. after that i copy my backup file to the folder and get imei back with no problem. No need to use box

when I flash this 'official' ROM, 4.2.2 leaked official XXUFME7
it changes the IMEI to 0049990xxx...,
and so I get only emergency calls allowed for the phone...
the rest looks ok, but I reverted to last 4.1.2 -
I am on O2 monthly contract - is that a problem?
otherwise, even though it lost phone capability, everything else seemed cool...
any idea around this without having to fiddle trying to restore the IMEI back to original...
when I flash back the last official released 4.1.2, the IMEI corrects itself...
a guru at O2 finds it weird... LOL! and said O2 does not support flashing with Odin, only through Kies...
Please Read one of the hundred other threads saying that you need to use mg4 modem since the latest released mg4 4.1.2 rewrites the efs partition.

If I understand well to successfully get the modem working with the 4.2.2 official Samsung leak, from
KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMG4_I9300OXAEMG4_1314436_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5
to
I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar.md 5
one needs the additional step of flashing the modem file
xxemg4.zip
please kindly confirm...
thanks

I sorted it...
this is how:
1. rename I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar.md5 without .md5 extension i.e.
I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar
2. in Linux delete modem.bin from the resulting .tar archive
3. flash, with Odin 3.04, I9300XXUFME7_I9300OXAFME7_I9300XXUFME7_HOME.tar (that had modem.bin removed)
This will keep the correct modem.bin of KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMG4_I9300OXAEMG4_1314436_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5
and so solves the problem...
and all this can be done without rooting...

Hi All,
In Windows delete modem.bin from the resulting .tar archive using 7zip program. I just deleted the modem from this rom and its working perfectly. Thank you all for the Help. God bless you guys. Take care.
ok, iw got this,, ;
1. Flashed 4,2,2 without backuping EFS and got that imei or efc corrupted.
2. Flased back to original stock 4.1.2 and its still the same,,
So NOW:
1. Do i have to flash back to 4.2.2 to get this modem thingy working or i can try to do the same with 4.1.2 ?
dont have an UART cable to solve this.. usb only wont work this time,.. so need another soluton..

1) You can only not post on dev section with less than 10 posts. You can post in general just fine. In fact, you posted this thread in general (which was the wrong place actually, questions go in Q&A, except IMEI questions, which go in my thread )
2) Your question is not different in any way. If you take the time to read the thread I suggested you read, you would know that.

You are contradicting yourself here. If your IMEI was 0049 then you did have an EFS / IMEI problem. My thread explains WHY and also WHAT you must do to keep your IMEI correct, so it answers all your questions.

No you didn't Samsung did. Get you're phone to a working state and bkup up you're efs with ktool. It's a must do thing to bkup you're efs folder. And for mg4 modem... you have to stick with that for now. You need to read more :thumbup:
