Hello everyone,
Firstly, I apologize for my bad english.
so my problem is that : there are two week ago i buy sg3 (i9300) from swiss, and when I got home (Algeria) I realized that I had no network. so i instal a root on the phone, and I used galaxy sim unlocker, voodoo, the ariza patch,regionlock away. no network at all.. . so I understand the problem. xxemg4 modem is intended for the European sim only, then xxemg4 use a new format of efs. so it's impossible to unlock the network for the moment.
So I ask you one thing. xxemg4 modem replaced by another modem supporting efs "v2" ... Algerian for example. would be the solution? whether helped me solve this problem please.
Thank you kindly help me good evening.
No, you cannot unlock the phone yourself. You cannot flash an earlier modem now you have efs v2.
If you flash the right modem for your country the phone might get signal, but it will have to be EMG4 or after at least. Unlocking will still need a code provided by the original swiss mobile network.

Hi guys. I need some helps. I'm from Malaysia and the android that i used before is android 4.1.2 I9300XXEMF6 (original firmware). Then ive upgraded it into android 4.3 (I9300XXUGMJ9) for UK region. Even though it is an official samsung firmware, i found out it is unstable. I flash it back to android 4.1.2 (Malaysia original firmware) but something happen. The "network have not registered" problem. I then found the solution by rooting it and install the modem. But it act funnily as the android seems unstable from before. I flash it over and over again hoping that reverting back to 4.1.2 will be the same as before but i ended up using 4.2 as the 4.1.2 have network problem. I already search the forum and find many solutions but none provide the files that i need. I also have tried KIES method by recovery and initializing method but it resulted the same. "Network has not registered. The only solution is to root it and i would really like to NOT to root my phone.
My question is, can someone provide me with necessary files such as the pit files, phone (modem) and the CSC files that specifically for Malaysia regions? I already have the firmware file. Please guys. The instability of 4.3 is driving me crazy.
BTW im using i9300.
Stop.
You are going to brick your phone if you flash things without understanding them.
Go to general forum and read the sticky post, especially efs 'know this stuff'.
Flashing a pit file WILL brick your phone.
When you flashed 4.3 you upgraded to efs v2, there is no way back. You can only use EMGx and later modems now, find a later modem that will work in your country, either with 4.1 or 4.3.
Edit. Backup your efs, perform a factory reset, flash your 4.1 country rom then an EMG modem.
hey man, thanks. One question, where can i find this emg modem?

What you`ll need is a new version of 4.1.2 with a mg4 baseband or latest, the 4.3 rom changed your efs folder format. If you want to stick with your 4.1.2 go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43946365&postcount=15 and flash that emergency.zip (mg4 baseband), it should do the job.
Hi guys. Already solved the network problem by installing the Modem DDEMG2 files via odin. Thanks for your guys helps and advice. For some that thinks that i haven't read many posts, i have read them but cannot grasp the concept. Sorry for the inconvenience. Many thanks.

Hello, i recently sold an S3 GT-i9300 on ebay. It was rooted but had stock rom and kernel installed. Worked absolutely fine. The fella that bought it, said he flashed CM10 on it, and had no signal. Then he flashed a stock ROM. Still no signal, So i can't figure out what could be wrong with it. He has sent it back to me, and there is still no signal. i tried 2 different sims. i'm hoping i can fix it. either way it was working fine before he got it. its a european model, and he has installed stock samsung for Nordic countries, baseband XXEMB6, build XXEMC3. i live in uk and bought the phone in uk, so would this make any difference? i have even tried ARIZA patch with no luck. Can anyone offer some help or insight please? im really stuck. Thanks.
Basic is user failing to read the faqs and guides before flashing .
Why on earth you took it back as the buyer is at fault for modifying the phone .

Have u tried flashing stock rom?
Sent from my GT-I9300
Hi Everyone,
I am typing this query under severe worry about my galaxy s3.I am dying for any help experts would be able to provide please.
I had 4.2.1 stock ROM installed on my s3 and im a very frequest visitor to xda for custom roms.
I downloaded the Android revolution 40 ROM for S3 and installed it after taking a backup of my stock ROM using recovery
When i booted into the new 4.3 revolution i was getting the error " not registered on network".
I searched the threads here in xda and did everything like ariza patch and flashing mg4 modem but even now the phone was not able to register to network Airtel
the most strange part is i get full signal,I have baseband and also IMEI still it doesnt connect to network
now the most strange part.If anyone calls me they are able to get the ring but im not getting any notification and the phone is idle.
I tried to search for network from mobile networks but it gave msg as "error when searching for network"
I took the phone to Samsung service centre and they told me they will reinstall 4.1.2 and it will work
I waited for 2 hrs and they told me its done.I put the simcard in and again i have same "not registered on network error"
Im sure they dont know how to sort this issue and the only thing they did was reinstall firmware which did not help
Im very afraid now that my mobile is permanently gone and i feel very bad for this
I hence request the experts to help me and bring my device back to normalcy which will releive me of stress mentally.
Please help ASAP.
Thanks in Advance
VJ

Hi Sir,
Many thanks for youre reply.
Today i got a call from the Samsung Service Centre that they are unable to fix the "netowkr not found problem"
They told me that there is some problem with the motherboard and it will cost 9000INR which is approx 155 USD to change the motherboard
They told me that is the only way the phone can get the network back and there is no other option.
I read your reply and I will download stock 4.1.2 from sammobile and flash with odin at home and flash the patched MG4 modem today.
That is my last hope as i cannot afford 155 USD for the motherboard as it is 1/3rd the price of my mobile.
They din charge me anything and gave my phone back.they have installed 4.1.2 stock I9300DDEMG2 modem and build number I9300XXEMH4.
I will post tomorrow what is the stauts of my phone.
Many thanks anyways for your help,this is my only final attempt to save my S3.
I hope it works.
Many thanks anyways for all the help

Hi Everyone,
I would like to inform you all that finally I have revived my S3 and it recognizes the network now.
I flashed the patched modem on my stock Indian firmware and my IMEI became 0049....
I found out that my SGS3 was bought in UAE by my cousin and hence i downloaded the 4.1.2 stock UAE firmware and flashed it.
Again no signal and no network
Finally as a last step before giving up i again flashed the patched modem and restarted the phone and it connected to network
My baseband is back,IMEI is back to normal,able to connect to network and everything works now
The only glitch now is that the serial number is 000000
I dont think it affects the phone in anyway.
Aslo one more question,can i update from OTA software updates in Samsung or again my phone will have "no netowkr problem"
Kindly advise
Many thanks anyways for all the help
OTA updates only available to unmodified handsets, running unrooted stock rom, recovery etc. All this and more is in the general forum, sticky threads -go read them.

Hello to everyone.
I hope i have posted in the right section.
I need info regarding the following situation:
i have a I9300 wich had 4.1.2 and was unlocked by software because it was EFS V1.
Because i didn`t made the proper digging i updated it to the original firmware af android 4.3 with Odin.
After flash i gor the unregistered sim network...because the EFS updated to V2. afterwards flashed again to 4.1.2 original and tryied to unlock using root,busy box and galaxsin unlock but due to EFS V2 didnt work.
Unfortunately i didn`t made backup to EFS V1 before update and now the IMEI shows 0049 (test imei).
The question is: the only way to solve this issue is going to a service center, recover original IMEI and unlock by Imei using pro tools or there is another way?
Thank you.
Pay for an unlock code is easiest.
Solved
Solved using this tutorial:
androidveterans.com solve-registered-network-galaxy-s3-i9300-issue-restore-imei
using zuluman`s patched kernel and modem, using original 4.3 firware from UK....and only with this firmware
Hope this helps others witch have the same problem.
Thanks
