Hello everyone! I just bought a new S3 under contract with Orange,It does not have the brickbug firmware so all is good. However in relation to the rom changing efs partition format i have a question that i couldn't find an aswer for. I tried flashing the XXEMG4 and newer roms but they would not do anything to my phone except giving me emergency calls...however my phone works with older firmware and basebands but not with the new ones.. Could this be because it is sim-locked? and somehow my efs remains unchanged? or did i get it wrong?
RECAP: the phone works only with older firmware and basebands but not with new (efs changing) roms...giving me weird imei and emergency calls on newer roms etc,basically all the problems that people experience AFTER flash MG roms and trying to go back to older.

hi there
I received official 4.3 update. frankly i didnt like it just like the jeally bean. call me crazy but i really liked the ICS too much and it was more than i need. i usually downgrade from jellaybean to ICS without any problems. its just last night when i tried to do that from the 4.3 i lost my Imei and it leads to no network thing / lost signal !! i was trying to use my stock room ( latest ICS update ) which is I9300XXBLH1_I9300OJVBLH1_XSG but now after flashing this as i mentioned i cant do calls.
Is there is any way to fix this? i heard that i have to flash the modem and thats all. please help am currently on 4.3 .

Hi everyone!
I need your help.
When I flash archidroid (4.4.2) then I lose my IMEI number. Then I restore efs with efs manager or Kctool and I get the IMEI back with proper serial number.
However, I cannot properly connect to phone network. It connects for a second or two but then the connection drops. After a minute it connects again and drops again. I played with 2g/3g options but it did not help.
I can flash stock 4,3 rom back and everything works fine. I just would like to upgrade to archidroid or other Kitkat rom.
What should I do?
Thanks for the help.

Hi everyone...
I've got an international i9300; running 4.4.2 OMNI nightly (great ROM!)... My baseband is listed as XXEMC2
I've checked the listings for modems etc but it isn't clear what specific baseband is the latest / best option for me (UK Orange)
I'm also using TWRP; are the base bands flashable via this?
Could anybody quickly point me in the right direction?

Modems can be flashed in recovery, there is no best modem so try them yourself.
