No
You need to restore your backed up EFS or pay for a service repair.
You are in the wrong forum if you have I9305 and that leads to conclusion you may well have flashed a rom for another phone .

Do you have a backup? You messed up your efs folder. Without a backup you need to send it to samsung

no
Before jumping to conclusions .
Factory reset check IMEI is correct .
If so flash modem for your local area network

Hi guys
I was using slimbean 6 with SiyahKernel 1.9.1. I did a fresh wipe and install of slimbean 7. After the install and when booting i still got the siyah logo which I though was strange. After boot im not getting any signal. I then reverted back to my backup of slimbean 6 and I STILL have no signal. It's odd becuase it was working fine before.
I've tied using perseus kernal and that wont boot slimbean.
What can I try to get signal back?
thanks
Jamie
Standard same question reply .
Check IMEI
Check correct modem and CSC .
Check sim card .
Read slimbean thread

Yep no imei number etc. Its printed on the back of my phone. If i have no efs can i enter it manually?
I cant remember if i did an efs backup. Where can i restore in clockwork or is it done in odin?
Some Nandroid backup EFS .

no, you can't enter it manually. look in the internal SD for anything that has efs in its name

I still have an efs folder on my phone, but i think it makes one if something goes wrong? Couldn't see a .efs file in there .....
Happened to me before.
I falshed a rom with different phone model.
Installing stock firmware via odin worked and saved my phone.
Hi,
After flashing latest Omega ROM v46.1 (android 4.2.2) everything was working until I disconnected from WiFi and the Network Data wasn't working. It says "Emergency Calls Only" when bring down the notification bar. I looked at my "about device" and I noticed that my imei had changed to "0004999010640000" Which is unusual however I can't find a solution since i forgot my real imei.
I need help quick. I can't receive or send calls and texts and I can't use my unlimited data plan. I checked and its got nothing to do with the network provider and I also put the right APN settings but still no result.
Everything worked fine on CyangonMod 10.1.2 but ever since I changed to Omega v46.1. My network won't work. Can someone please reply fast since I need to use my phone and I am hesitating to wipe and flash anything else as it took a long time to restore my apps and data and settings as it might not show any results.
Extra information:
Current Modem = XXUFME7
Baseband = i9300XXUFME7
Network Provider = Three UK

Restore your backed up EFS folder ..
Fail to backup up EFS folder then its a paid for service repair .
Samsung Galaxy S3 General Sticky Roll-Up Thread ***Stickies found here!
You can sometimes recover your imei (which is under your battery) by flashing a stock rom via odin, follow the guides in stickies.
This only works if the efs partition simply isn't being mounted or read, if it's corrupted then you need your backup -no backup then repair centre required.
Your apps and data are the least of your worries at the moment.

Thanks, I now understand how stupid I was being for not backing up my EFS, no one mentioned it when they showed me how to flash a rom, I am right now downloading a stock ROM and hopefully it works. I gave you a thanks for that

I installed this new modem via CWM Recovery and I could fix this issue.

I've tried to wipe data and wipe partition cache and nothing , I tried to flash oficial galaxy i9300 rom on it with ODIN , and still the same .. WHAT CAN I DO ?

No idea really... but if you know how to flash a stock rom via ODIN you can try that. If flashing back to stock again doesn't help then you probably need to send to Samsung for repair.
No service as per the basic guides stickied in General section .
Please check your IMEI is correct if not restore your backed up EFS folder .
No EFS backup = no fix .

I've just falshed a official firmware rom again , and still no coverage but at least it recognizes the sim .. If I have this new OFFICIAL ROM , and Flash Counters are reseted , I can go with it to warranty ?
If you have followed all the steps in the guide then you will probably get a warranty repair .

Hi !
I'm sorry, , either you flashed it on Odin with "Clear EFS " box ticked, either you flashed firmware for wrong device. (Ex: i9000 for i9300. )
Anyway if you didn't backup EFS the only issue is Reparation Center.

you might be able to restore service if you flash an MG4 or MG5 official rom through Odin. This is only if you previously used an MG4 or MG5 rom and then flashed some other rom which uses an older modem . read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2377731 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393289

I don't think it will work.
alexalghisi, can you go in Phone Information and check if you have baseband?
If no, warrently, no luck.
In the black box the phone or modem is Mc2. This is an older modem than MG4. When a ROM that uses an MG4 Modem is flashed , it alters the files in the efs Folder making the folder unreadable for earlier firmwares. If OP had ever flashed an MG4 or MG5 ROM . than an MC2 ROM would not be able to read the EFS. as it can only be used by the newer firmware that can read it. If the folder has not been corrupted than it should work.
