[Q] Updated to stock 4.3 Then..... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Idiot here, I was quite annoyed at the stock 4.3 update, I decided to root and install a Rom on my phone, how wrong I was, I subsequently stayed up late at night, without finding an answer to why the phone was not being able to register on my network.
I found out that the IMEI number issue, so my question is, if I re-install 4.3 and load up my phone via kies with my back up, will this work?
Or has anyone got any suggestions?
Much Appreciated

Nothing worked

Idiot 2 here
I did the same mistake.
I have upgraded the phone to the above mentioned firmware, still I am unable to make calls / send message. Whenever I try to make a call - receiving an error message "Not registered to Network". When I try to search for networks I was able to find the network and register to it, receive a message confirming the sim is registered to the network. But within a fraction of second I see emergency calls only popup.
Installed modem file from sd card - Didn't work
Downgraded to a stock firmware - Didn't work
Followed the sammobile thread - 14253
Nothing worked. I am using my phone now to play games now
Tried getting a new sim card from a different carried (go-phone) that didnt work too.

Thanks for making me feel a bit better,see if this helps, if your device is rooted .. or root it and give it a try.. seems simple.

[Q] help!! cant place calls says "no network

so i bought a used vibrant off of a guy i know. And it worked perfectly. After a few days the phone just stopped working when i tried to do a factory update. Now the error i get when i try to make a call is "network not available" and where my bars would be it shows a circle with a line through it. I have tried booting on flashed roms and i have tried putting on stock 2.1, i have even tried to put the unlock code in, but nothing works at all!!! tmobile has no clue about anything and just keeps telling me to hard reset or send it in for repair but i have no insurance and i cannot be without a phone!!! please help me asap. i have also tried to go to select network and nothing comes up at all it used to say att and tmobile now nothing?? i am clueless here?!?!?!?! everything else works on the phone just no network as in wifi, market place etc. and i know its not my sim as i just got a new one and tried in my friends vibrant and it worked!
You might need to add the APN manually maybe?
Where you went to search network goto access point names and click on tmobile
The APN should be : epc.tmobile.com
MMSC should be : http:/ /mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMC should be : 310
MNC should be : 260
APN type should be : Internet+MMS
Just a suggestion but you could always just odin back to a factory fresh install. Sounds like the OTA update that you installed hosed something. Are you getting any SIM errors or anything else?
if u can (via wifi or something) download Rom Manager from the market and click on "fix permissions".... see if that helps.
all the settings in the apn are corect as per what the values you typed should be, i have rom manager and tried the quick fix with the permissions, nada, and this is the strangest problem as my sim card is reading as all my sim contacts are showing...so i know the sim card slot is not the issue, and when i tried to flash back to stock using odin 2x now, it still leaves out the calling feature, i was thinking maybe it has to do with the modem in the phone and somehow it got deleted for good unless i reinstall it???

This might be the fix you need. Download JFD tar and 512 pit files. It is a stock build that should completely clean and reinstall all the correct files needed. When you flash into Odin3 make sure repartition is UNTICKED or it will not work! I've had plenty of issues in the past and JFD has resolved every last one of them. J16 helps, but not with everything. Probably because it's just an update file.

What do you mean by it didn't work? The JFD file did not flash successfully or it did flash successfully, but you are still not getting a network signal? If no network signal then I advise you call T-Mobile and tell them you are having gps issues and they should replace the phone as long as it's still under warranty. It's worth a try. The worst they can say is sorry your warranty is expired.

the flash worked as in it was successful but no network still comes up. i called tmobile but since i bought the phone originally not from tmobile they said bring it back to the person you bought it from. tmobile even resent the signal to my phone and i was on the phone for over and our with them doing the same thing over and over, but to no avail. before i throw this phone on ebay for parts.... any other ideas???

did you check if airplane mode was on. i had it sometimes hide in the menus but never said in the notifications
So I checked airplane mode and nothing. It wasn't on that so still no fix. And the guy I got it from said he didn't do anything but I think he bsing. Is there anyone in the new york area that thinks they can fix this. Even if for a little fee it might be worth it?? Let me know asap I need a phone.
i guess no one found a fix for this as i still have the phone and the repair shop i got it back form seems like they didnt know what to do at all, even changed out the sim card slot to no avail.

Does turning flight mode on then off let it come back online? The issue is a werid one, but has been popping up around the forums. I wish I had a concrete answer for you. When you Odin back to stock JFD firmware, it replaces the modem entirely and should set you back to how it came from the factory. If thats not working, I would go get my money back.
Could you fix your problem with the phone? I'm having the same problem here. The weird thing is that my phone is unlocked and it works with an AT&T sim card, when I try my T-mobile card, I can't make calls. I tried everything, flash back to stock with Odin, manual settings, Airplane mode off and on, around 10 different Roms, and a bunch other suggestions but I still can't make it work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.....

Did you check these settings under Mobile Networks--AccessPoint Names? Do you see T-Mobile US as the selection? If you do, make sure the settings are as described here.
Flashing to stock would have fixed any issues that were software related... sounds like you have a hardware problem. You should odin back to stock.... wipe data/factory reset.... then flash again just to be sure. I've had funky issues that this has helped in the past

I have "mobile networks not available" problem also.
I flashed theese roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1061889
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1021383
Problems are same for theese two problem.
1- There is no mobile network data. When i want to make call, it says, "mobile network not available".
I did the apn fix (set to default, reset etc.) No working.
I opened *#*#4636#*#* and do somethings explaning under "fixing network problems" threads.
Theese all not working.
I'm looking for help. This problem is not about sim card or operator(t-mobile etc.). Because a lot of people have same problem from all world. Every thidsd people using different gsm operators. So, fixing method with sim cards not working. This problem is about rom. Because, when downgrade to Android 2.1 or 2.2, there no problem. Please help.
2- Second problem is powering off it self every 15 minutes. All theese two roms have this problem. Not every time after 15 minutes. Sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes after 40 minute (after boot).
2.1 and 2.2 also don't have this problem.
Please help.
There is a lot people on world using CyanogenMod. And they are flashing this rom with same method with rom manager.
Why this rom have problem about mobile network and powering of.
Thanks.

Stock ICS update gave me invalid sim card

I have 2 Galaxy notes that have been stock since day 1 with no modifications other than sim unlock via code. I waited patiently till the official ICS release came out to do my first ever phone update using Kies. After the update, 1 is running perfectly and the other has a notification stating that the sim card is not valid, contact customer care. I swapped sim cards and got the same error. Both Sim cards on other phone working properly.Restarting phone didn't resolve the problem. After a few seconds to minutes from time of reboot (in which phone recognizes network and I can make phone calls normally), the same error occurs sometimes with the code in place of the Service Provider name (63081)? I tried factory reset using phone menu and it wiped it clean but still same error. I tried reinstalling the ICS firmware/rom update provided via KIES and I'm still getting the same error.
I researched this plenty and noticed that others have had similar problems with sony phones after ICS update with no resolution.
Any suggestions?
is rooting possible yet to try another rom?
Can I go back to GB though I don't have a backup?
It sounds like a bad modem flash.
Why not make a nandroid of the good phone and restore it on the bad phone.
Thanks for your reply. I resolved it. Even though I had tried a different sim from the same company for a nother number and it hadn't worked, I still decided to make a new sim for my number and that seemed to resolve the problem. Still odd as to why ICS update would do that.

Not registered on network, again

This thread is outdated and not related to the new problem with EFS coruption. Solutions proposed here wont help you if you lost your network after downgrading a ROM from MF6 to earlier.
Ok it's not the first thread about this but no one seems to have an answer. I'm trying again.
I flashed a custom ROM on a friend's phone i9300. After the flash the phone keep saying "Not registered on network". I tried everything I know.
I changed modem
I changed ROM (3X) (with full wipe)
I returned to stock
I installed GetRil (changed the baseband)
I installed Galaxsim (phone already unlock)
when I try to set the APN I get a message "registered on network" but when I do a phone call I got "Not registered on network"
Is there anyone who knows any way to solve this problem?
New sim? What all works?

Get a new sim from your carrier. Either your sim tray is broken or your sim card is. Sim card is cheap/free to replace so try that first.

sounds like (both of you) your EFS folder is corrupt - the only way i've read of repairing it is to have a back up. service center for repair is the only option AFAIK.
The IMEISV means nothing, don't even worry about it. Know what you're talking about before you blurt out crap.

Usual suspects .
Sim you tried another .
Sim carrier unusual to be damaged .
IMEI wrong .
No phone number details standard with many roms .
Network details not entered or incorrect or wrong CSC .
Wrong modem unlikely .

First I restored the phone with the nandroid backup I made just before flashing. (still not register on network)
Then I restored the phone to stock Samsung with Odin (still not register on network)
The IMEI is still there(most thread I read with this problem people lost their IMEI)
The phone can connect to the network because it can retreive the time from the network.
If I make a network operator search it finds China Unicom(This is my sim card) and when I choose it it says "register on the network" but as soon as I try to call, I get the "not register on network" again.
I thought the IMEI might be block as it might be a stolen phone but I made a search on two IMEI database and it says CLEAR.
I flashed 3 Asian modems( I used to have a S3 I know the XXELJ2 was working with my sim card) and same result.
Have you tried flashing a different modem to your device and reporting the problem to your provider.
May sound obvious but the provider's logs may clearly show what is wrong and they can report it back to you.

anyway, tried this metod too now, and still the same ~
Hey guys, had a very similar problem to kremata (everything in EFS folder seemingly ok (IMEI and S/N were fine)), and for me it got fixed by applying Azira's Patch ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601 ).
However this solution only works by rooting and if you try to return it to stock it will reverse to being a 500$ PDA sadly.
In any case, the phone is now fully functional (calling/SMS/mobile data).

[Q] "Not registered on network"

Hello there,
A few weeks ago I was trying out different custom roms on my galaxy s3, and I somehow managed to **** something up and my IMEI number got changed to something like 00400001234. I kept getting "Not Regitsrred on Network" error if I tried to make calls. So I took it to a repair shop and paid £25 to get it fixed
It got fixed and the imei number went back to normal - I could make calls again!
I then did efs, nandroid and titanium backups and then flashed foxhound rom, but again I get the "not registered on network" error. So I restored the backup, but it still says the error. I tried a different backup and still it cant connect to network :crying:
What I tried to fix this:
- turning it off for a while then back on
- manually trying to connect to my network
- manually enterring APN details
- ate a bagel
- factory reset / data wipe
- I followed all the guides I could find on this site and used the search function extensively! the last thread i read was this one but the guy couldn't find a solution other than taking it to a shop
I think I have only these options:
1) try to fix it myself maybe flashing a different radio, CSC, or something (?)
2) take it back to repair shop and pay another £25
I read somewhere that the method the shop uses to 'fix' the phone means that you cant install custom roms. is this true?
As you can probably tell, I am a novice at this kinda thing and so it's very frustrating cos I cant understand how to fix this =/
Thankyou
A guess is that you flashed custom rom and either have no CSC wrong CSC or wrong modem for your network . Or EFS folder is damaged .
Possible solution restore original rom via .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1978840
Then test .
jje
so is the imei there?
yes the IMEI on the phone matches the one printed under the battery
thanks for the link. i'm trying to use kies now to fix it, but it's saying my device firmware version is not supported to update via kies. not sure what this means cos i flashed the stock rom already =/
Trying flashing the stock modem if it's not already, I too got same problem and then flashed the stock modem for my rom/country and it worked
Just my experience being a noob to flashing

i would like to try flashing a new modem/csc but i dunno where to find those seperate files. do you have a link to where i can download the unbranded UK one?
ive just flashed another rom with odin (UK unbranded BTU 4.0.4), and now i'm getting a different error. the phone now says 'mobile network not available' and there are no mobile networks showing when i try to search for them. i am no longer seeing the 'not registered to network' error
i'm still getting the error message in kies saying my firmware is not compatible too =/
dunno if this helps, but when i dial *#1234# it shows this information:
AP: I9300XXBLG8
CP: I9300XXLG8
CSC: I9300XABLG8
what does it all mean =S
edit: okay, i've just been down to the store where i originally bought the phone from. i had one of their sales guy snap a picture of the firmware version info screen. for comparison i've included a screenshot of my s3's info:
i.imgur.com/SQ19c17.png
my plan is to try and locate this specific firmware and flash it onto my device in hopes it will fix it =<
does anyone know where i could find this specific firmware?

the console text says it has applied CSC-code "CYO"
ive managed to find the correct firmware now, so that it matches the stock s3, but yet my problem still remains =/ once again it is giving me the 'not registered on network' error
dont know what else to try now =/
maybe the CSC code is incorrect, and changing it would fix my issue?
CSC has nothing to do, since your phone is unlocked. It depends on the network, whether GSM or UMTS.
Try this firmware for the CSC CYO:
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/190153878/49a62fc/I9300XXELLA_I9300OXXELL1_CYO.zip.html
1- Make sure to flash using Odin 3.07. Find it in the forums. To flash, you must enter the download mode. Switch off the phone, then Vol Down + Home + Power.
2- After flashing and rebooting the device, when the logo is shown, remove the battery and reinsert it.
3- Enter the recovery mode using (Vol Up + Home + Power).
4- Choose "Wipe factory settings".
5- Reboot the device.
6- Enjoy.
Being in an area with weak network coverage can cause continuous error like "Not registered on network". Therefore, after flashing, try forcing the network into GSM via "Setting -> More Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode -> GSM Only".
This shall work fine with you
well thanks for trying, but that didn't work either. i followed the steps exactly and i still get 'not registered on network' error =/
this is so frustrating

i've just uses kies to find the exact firmware i need (entered the model + serial number) and flashed it... but, still i get 'not registered on network' error, despite having full 5 bars signal
i dont know what else could cause this. the firmware is correct, imei number is correct, everything is back to stock.. so why am i still seeing this error? :crying: ive run out of ideas now! well, unless the 'custom binary counter' stops the phone working if you flash it too many times (???) i really dont know what else to try

Can you try another working SIM?
BTW, to reset flash counter, root your phone, use TriangleAway, reset flash, then flash the stock firmware again.
thanks for the help man, but ive given up on the phone now.
i've just had a terrible accident. and the phone dropped out of my pocket while i was riding my bicycle on the road. it got run over by a 4 cars, 2 trucks and a bus.
it's very sad.
good job the phone is insured.

Have you tried flashing a different modem or reflashing your old one?
You did absolutly nothing new to the phone?

Suggest you start by reading the stickied faqs and guides .
Or take the phone to a service centre .
I have just rang tesco and my imei is not black listed. relief
I have not done any thing it was working perfect couple of weeks. i thought it might be tesco as they are upgrading networks now and then but no.
I have not put anything stupid in the phone or installed a custom rom.
I have just reinstalled the firmware via kies and still no luck it just says emergency calls only when i drag the top bar and not registered on network when i try make a phone call
When you say you have data...you mean you have data trough wifi? Or trough your privider?

This suggests you need to start at the beginning wipe phone and flash the correct stock rom for your network via Odin .
Its all in the faqs and guides alternative to reading is a service centre .
what modem do i install how do i know and how do i do that.
I have been reading around the forum and people are having same problem.
I was reading this thread is this anything to do with mine (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2529127)
is the same problem happening with s4s and notes
Dont know what country you are from...depends on where you live in the general tread there is a modem rill tread.
You can flash these through odin.
Or through custom recovery.
If you dont know/understand these terms you need to read up first
Read well!!!....if you dont know what you are doing you gonna mess it up more than it is now!
Or else take it for repair.

im in the uk and the phone is on 3 network originally. currently its on 4.1.2 baseband i9300nelk2 build jz054k.i9300xxemd2
the imei is same as under the battery and serial number
what if eri version is unavailable and service state out of service
do you have to have root to install a modem
