[Q] no signal after flash custom ROM.Samsung official ROM is OK. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,everyone
I have used i9300 for more than 1 year. I have this no signal problem for more than 1 year,too. Could you help me to solve it? Here are the details:
1. I have bought this phone on internet. I believe it is an European phone with lock. But when i got, it had signal with Samsung official ROM.
2. Then i tried to flash some Samsung official ROMs from forums, i found there was no signal. So i had to go to a store to fix it. The guy in the store used a machine to fix my phone. Maybe he had changed my IMEI. Anyway,after that, the phone is OK to flash Samsung official ROMs with normal signal.
3. When i tried to flash some other custom ROMs, like CM, AOKP, Temasek, no signal.But when i flashed back to Samsung official ROMs,signal was still OK.
One thing more,about a few months ago, i flashed some Temasek and CM ROMs, some of them were OK with signal.But each time i reboot my phone, it would take a long time(range from 3 minutes to 1 hour) to recover the signal.
so,could you help me to find out how to solve it?
many thanks!

Start with the sticky threads in general forum. Usual problem is efs damaged, which can't be fixed but there are some ways to work around with patched modems etc. You'll have to work it out for yourself as there is no easy fix.

You need to read the basic faqs and guides .
Many custom roms do-not contain a modem
Basics read first.

[Q] Signal problem, not to do with 4.3 update?

Okay, hundreds of posts like these, I know.
But I unrooted my GS3 today (it was on the MIUI V5 V1.2 iHackers ROM) and went to the default Stock ROM from sammobile.
I think I may have used the wrong one, since now I have the no signal error. (By this I mean it was [I9300XXEMC3_I9300NEEEMC1_I9300XXEMB6_HOME.tar.md5]
I have the 0049**** IMEI error.
And I can only guess that wasn't right.
What choices do I have now?
Could I install the correct stock rom, perform the 4.3 update or what?
The obvious guesses are that it is to do with either: MIUI (and if it is, should I just reinstall it?) or the stock ROM being wrong (which I don't know if it is)
Basically I didn't do an EFS backup (was never actually told to in any of the threads I visited, sadly) and have basically no way of reverting it.
If all else fails, would Three repair it for me?
EDIT:
Okay, so it wasn't the stock ROMs fault.
Please we do not need these identical posts day after day .
Read the faqs and guides its all posted .
No EFS backup you pay for a service repair .
Ask 3 they will say yes or no

Flash CM over MJ9

Like many, I am extremely disappointed with Samsung's attempt to bring 4.3 to the S3 and am on the verge of switching to CM 10.2 from a stock ROM. The ROM is rooted with a yank555 kernel and philZ recovery.
However, upon reading this forum; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531221 and several others like it, I realised I may or may not run into an EFS or no network issue. I have the stable 10.2 and 4.3 Gapps ready to install via ROM Installer.
Is it only if the android version is downgraded that any form of EFS error could occur? As 10.2 is based off 4.3, I thought it would work fine and flash as it did when I ran stock 4.1.2 but wanted to double check.
Thanks for your time.

[Q][HELP] Galaxy Note II : NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK after flashing rom 5.1 Lollipop

Recently, I have a rooted Note 2 , which is the phone became not registered on network after updating 5.1.1.
I've returned to 4.1.2 for flashing Ariza Patch and BusyBox but nothing seems to work.
I did flash GT-N7100 Model ND3 for fixing it and I've tried a few other sims from different network, but it doesn't work either
This is the first time I've used Android OS so that it's little bit difficult for newbie as me
Anyone can solve it? Just help me
Thank you guys so muchhh!
Check you IMEI in device settings. This sometimes can be wiped out by flashing roms, that is the reason it is posted to back up your efs folder. Without a backup you may end up having to send it in for a new board.
