Hi
I have installed PMP Ultra ROM on my GT-S7592 following all xda appropriate "how to". When it was done, everything was ok but impossible to call or receive calls, I had Network issues (network not connecting, stopping when trying to call for no reason).
Reading the forums, people look to be saying that it was coming from not having the right Baseband. I checked and yes the baseband didn't get updated when I flashed the advised stock rom in ODIN. So I tried it several time, even with different roms (S7562DDBMD1 and S7562XXBMD6) , but still my original baseband S7562ZSMK1 remains.
My results so far: Baseband didn't change accordingly when flashing with ODIN but Build Number did change to IMM76I.S7562DDBMD1 and IMM76I.S7562XXBMD6 and stock ROM got installed.
1- Are my issues really coming from this modem version?
2- If yes, how do I get the Baseband properly changed?
Kind Regards

Problem is: how to do it? I'm on stock ROM and no matter what stock ROM I flash, the baseband will always be the same, like if it's locked or something.

All zips I could find where entire ROMs which are suposed to change the baseband, right? Problem is: when I flash them, the build number does change, meaning that something worked, but the baseband does not.
Could you link me to one of those zips? Preferably the one you have used (if you used any) so I can make sure the problem is not me doing something wrong.

I know, it should work. I'm receiving an error message every time I try to flash the fat.bin file with Odin, be it when flashing a whole ROM or only the fat.bin file: "Secure Check Fail: ID 0xc". I researched a lot, but couldn't find an applicable solution. I couldn't even find what this error message means.
Friends, any help on this one? A friend of mine has entrusted his S-Duos to me; the baseband of the same would not budge, whatever I flash. I tried flashing fat.bin file from various stock roms, every time the above mentioned error occurs in Odin.
Edit: The current baseband version is S7562ZSLI3 and the rom I flashed is XXBMJ1.
CWM Recovery
First I got to ask, Do you have CWM Recovery installed? if yes, Do a factory reset with it then. Then go to Advance options Format System partition, Data partition, Cache Partition.
Then reboot the phone normally to be sure that has formated. If it boots up to android then its not formated, but if it gets stuck and Samsung logo for more that 5min. Then its bricked and you are good to go.
No remove the battery and boot to recovery (Volume up + Volume Down + Home + Power buttons) Now install ROM from SD.
That should solve the issue. I have a S7562CHM version and now its S7562XXBMJ1.
Hit thanks if it works.

Hi, I have a carrier (3UK) branded SGS2, and have been running MIUI for a little while
I decided to go back to stock, so used ODIN + files from this thread.
However, once ODIN has done it's thing, update continues on the phone. It reports that it couldn't access /system/csc/KOR/system, but that CSC has been installed.
However, there is no signal, no network available all I have is 'emergency calls only', whereas before I had pretty good signal, and I've not changed location.
I'd check what the current CSC is with *#1234#, but it seems that that rom is broken. FCs for com.android.acore, among others including google services, and as a result the dialer won't open, and others from the same list create a lovely bootloop.
Where can I get a working, stock rom, with the connectivity for my carrier?
How do I solve my issues?
P.S. - Yes I have seen a psychatrist. He got bored
1st check your imei number, is that 00499901064000 or still orignal imei??
press *#06# to know imei
Go to settings > about phone > Status
Check your IMEI/Wi-Fi MAC/etc
If its not there, your EFS it toasted and I hope you have a backup.

I had the same ROM and i have the 3UK branded SGS2 too. MIUI is too buggy to be honest. I had the same issue with signal. Only got 1 bar then 'Emergency Calls Only'. 3UK works best with XXKPA modem. Currently, i have WanamLite, always get full bars

Hi there, i just have a quick question, pretty easy but im too dumb to get through it .. I just flashed Ultra ICS 1.2 from westcrip but it doesnt really work for me (phone and sms doesnt work, i get a message that its stopped and when i try to click on it on the homescreen it says that the app?! is not installed). Well .. the plan was before that i get the v0.5 from westcrip but i installed Ultra ics cause I just had to flash a zip .. now the main problem.
When im installing it like its said on the site ill get an error. Because: my cwm says that i cant restore tar files. But its said that i should unrar the rar and restore the stuff like a backup.. I just googled and its said that tar files need to be installed by odin. But theres no single comment in the thread that says that i need odin?! what do i have to do to get it working with the md5+img+tar files (!). (My normal cwm backup just has the md5 and img files)
Please help me
Thanx

You have been reverted to the generic IMEI, which means the phone wont work properly, and as you don't have a backup of the IMEI you are a bit out of luck.
Your best bet is to flash to stock, reset flash counter, and get it fixed under warranty, say it happened during a KIES update.

Way to hijack a thread.
To my personal knowledge, though, that is correct. Updates contained in .zips can be flashed in recovery, but tarballs (.tar, .tar.md5) need to be flashed using Odin.
However, to help you out, it would be better to know which phone you're talking about for a start (I'm taking it its SGS2) and which thread you're talking about. Post a new [Q] thread with all info and I'll try and help as I can.

Cool, well like I said, Post it up as a new [Q] thread, then you title it to your specific enquiry, and maybe if it turns out I can't help, then its still open for other people to help out, as I think were probably the only 2 left monitoring this thread now.

1) from this thread download, your stock rom and the old bootloaders. (carrier branded roms are in another thread linked from that one)
2) flash old bootloaders
3) use USB jig to wipe the download counter
4) flash your stock rom
5) flash the new bootloaders if your stock firmware is UHKI1 or newer
That should make your phone look stock

Make your own thread and try to be totally clear what your problem is, as I am unable to work out what is wrong/what you are trying todo, and even what rom you are on.
Use bullet points.
lets try this one:
wanna install : resurrection v6.0 based on XXKPA OFFİCİAL İCS from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
problem:
after extract and steps i followed :
"Download the cwm backup
Put it on your internal SD Card . example phone/internal sd/clockworkmode/backup ( NOT EXTERNAL SD CARD )
Enter Recovery
Wipe Everything
select restore and backup
Select restore from internal sd card ( NOT EXTERNAL SD CARD
After install finished
reboot the device
Enjoy!"
I get the problem that on the cwm backup are "tar" files which i cant install with my cwm.. its a cache.ext4.tar, data.ext4.tar,system.ext4.tar,nandroid.md5, boot img in the rar. my normal backups just have img files ... guess its not that hard to answer, pretty much a standard question but i dont find anything in the forums and im not able to post in the thread itself cause i have below 10 posts or stuff like that. (Posted in this thread cause tar files are normally used by odin..)
thanx

Hi,
I have installed Android ICS 4.0.3 in my galaxy s2 two days back, but now i want to go back to the company provided version Android 2.3.6 for india.
I tried the official firmware given in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
but i am experiencing some problem and the mobile doesn't goes beyond the initial start up screen where it says "click on android logo to start"
Please anybody can tell me how to install properly the official firmware android 2.3.6 DDKL1 for Samsung galaxy s2.
Please let me know the exact steps to do and the link for files to download.
Thanks in advance.
The files you have should work fine. Did you flash.as shown in the pictures in the OP of the thread you linked?
If your getting to the android start screen your phone should boot fine. Did you click on the android to start?
Sent from my GT-I9100
Yes i did click on the android logo, It doesn't do anything rather some android process is getting stopped and i am getting popups for it.
while installing 4.0.3 i included all PDA,Phone,CSC and Pit files in odin manager and there by re-partitioned also.
the official firmware link above gives me only the PDA tar file rest of the other files i searched and downloaded dunno whether it is correct. so is it possible for you to give the full set of tar files, if u have?? or direct me to some links where i can download those.
I used the 2.3.6 xila version from remorema at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444651. Just make sure you wipe system/cache and delvik cache before you install from zip in cwm. Then it all should be fine. This presumed you have a CWM.
Hope this helps

It's probably interfering with something if you're getting all of the process close.
I suggest a factory data reset if you can, close your phone and go to recovery (even if its a stock rom, the original android recovery will also work) and do a factory data reset and try again.
If that still doesn't work, try re-flashing again and see what happens.

If you have only 1 file then don't download any others. Just flash it as pda as shown in the picture of your linked thread.

Hi, mani_vic2rious
If U want to revert back to ginger Stock roms, then this is your place :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444651
I recommend you to choose only from ginger ones, and remember thy are all from samsung, thus, not tweaked or anything. the only difference is that you can install them via CWM, for those who don't like to use Odin on windows PC.
Now if you want to stay in ICS 4.0.3 LP2 based rom, I recommend you Wanamlite V7.2 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436817
U won't find more stable and functional than this.
Keys to succes in any rom installation :
1- Backup all your personal Stuff;
2- reboot into recovery (cwm) and wipe every single thing : datas, all caches (use the advance menu to wipe more things like dalvics and battery stats)
3- install your rom
4- then restore your personal stuff
As possible as you can : Always reinstall your apps from the begining and avoid restoring them from the backup you did, this always cause conflits and that's why people are always complaining, only do backup your contacts sms and other things like that.
and voilà, always stay clean as possible, and every thing will work smooth, you only need to choose the right rom.
I hope this helps!

But the problem begins at the boot .....The first wizard for configuration of the phone cannot executed, throws an error and the android cannot tapped.

Yes root it then install cwm recovery then download zip file and put it onto your internal sdcard
Then reboot in CWM and use "install from zip".
Well, guys...
I did what you said... didn't succeed. I installed those patches, but it still says "not registered on network".
I wonder if it is an IMEI / EFS folder issue... As I mentioned on the initial post, I don't have a backup EFS folder.
Should I try to flash the stock ROM (I mean, the factory native ROM) so as to try to recover the IMEI?
If so, I don't know what was the original firmware because I got this mobile from a friend.
Any ideas on how to figure it out?
Thanks in advance.

I'm really thankful for the tips... but is there any tutorial on how to flash MG4 modem?
I've had a quick look on the net, but I couldn't find any 'step-by-step'...
I mean, do I have to save those 2 files (modem MG4 + kernel) in the SD card and flash using CWM?
Where can I download it?
Thank you all.

I'm really thankful for the tips... but is there any tutorial on how to flash MG4 modem?
I've had a quick look on the net, but I couldn't find any 'step-by-step'...
I mean, do I have to save those 2 files (modem MG4 + kernel) in the SD card and flash using CWM?
Where can I download it?
Thank you all.

Here's the patched modem and install via CWM.

Well, guys...
I did what you said... didn't succeed. I installed those patches, but it still says "not registered on network".
I wonder if it is an IMEI / EFS folder issue... As I mentioned on the initial post, I don't have a backup EFS folder.
Should I try to flash the stock ROM (I mean, the factory native ROM) so as to try to recover the IMEI?
If so, I don't know what was the original firmware because I got this mobile from a friend.
Any ideas on how to figure it out?
Thanks in advance.

U can try these patched modems
https://drive.google.com/folderview...usp=sha+ring&tid=0B6MIUd7HJudAbU5YaGkzOUowMG8
these are released after 4.3 upgrade with the issue not registered in network
Flash
I would go back to an older version of standard rom. See if that restores imei efs back to version 1. Sammy mobile unbranded uk is version 2 so use an older version than that. I have gone back to this from version 4.3 stock. If phone boot loops after flashing do full factory reset. Then check imei. If still not ok. Install kies and it will upgrade to 4.3 and imei will be back.

Koj,
Could you please post the link for the older version of standard rom? After flashing it, how can I check the IMEI EFS version? I just want to be sure I'm strictly following your tips.
Just to remind you, I got this S3 from a friend who had bought it in USA, and now I'm trying to use it in Brazil.
Thanks in advance. Greetings from Brazil!!
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9300&pcode=ZTO These are a list of Brazilian roms choose the september 4.12 version. You will need to register before you can download. To check imei go to about device then status or from phone keypad enter *#06#
Hi everyone,
I have galaxy s3 i9300, I flashed cyanogenmod couple of month ago and had troubles with the battary and the gps signal so i wanted to go back to the stock rom.
First, i restored a backup from the original stock with CWM but than decided to install a new one so i downloaded rom from sammobile and installed it with odin. Apparently i made a huge mistake cause since than i cant register to a network.
My IMEI is FINE - the same as written under the battary.
Read alot of threads about this issue, most of them related to a problem with the imei...
Tried this:
1. flash another stock rom
2. flash another rom (PA)
3. install other modems
4. re-partition
Non of them works for me...
I would have tried restore the CWM again to original stock but now having trouble with the CWM reading my external SD.
Thanks!

Your IMEI can still appear normal and be corrupt did you try the patched modem and kernel method.

Are they the patched modems and kernels they have to be patched to work not just flashing the newer modems although that does work for some.
Try this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ii-network-problem-update-sn-t1918601/page199 << look at post 1984 by west421 this as helped a few people also here are some more patched modems and kernels >> https://drive.google.com/folderview...sharing&tid=0B6MIUd7HJudAbU5YaGkzOUowMG8#list << flash the modem and kernel not just the modem.

Glad it worked
Not I00% sure I think it's more the modem and kernel that you need I just know that particular combination as worked for some people.You could try another rom then flash patched modem and kernel after just make sure the rom is compatible with the kernel.
Also you will always need to use the patched modem and kernel files or you will lose signal again
hey there everybody
i have a serious issue and i think i could use your help
well previously i was on stock rom 4.2.2 on my I9300, then i flashing 4.3 manually using odin and downloaded the rom from sammobile anyhow since i flashed that firmware i can no longer access anything on my sim card, meaning i cant call or receive any call from anyone, it keeps saying no registered on network, then i thought it could be the rom or something, i tried pa rom and cm official latest builds but in vain, the same issue, i tried changing the sim card but the same, issue not resolved....how can i solve this prob, i wish it is just a software issue not a hardware
i also tried following this link, i thought it would help somehow, but in vain as well, now i have no idea what to do to solve this issue, tried reflashing another stock rom which is probably more appropriate than the old one, but also it didnt work, so now i have no idea what to do, i just need urgent help please, thanks a lot in advance

Flash the patched modem and kernel in the first link >> https://drive.google.com/folderview...=sharing&tid=0B6MIUd7HJudAbU5YaGkzOUowMG8#lis << if you get a bootloop after flashing go into recovery and factory reset.The second link was just to explain roughly what had happened to your phone.

pardon me for im new to this patch and modem, so i have no idea according to what i have to choose
btw dude, i just noticed that there is another stock 4.3 rom for my country, would flashing that stock firmware be of any good and solve the issue?
NOT WORKING, I TRIED
okay buddy i got it to work, flashed patched kernel and patched modem using twrp in one go and it did work, couldn't wait for your reply though, so now it is working peacefully and i can access my sim, calling sending sms etc, but i wanna know how to backup efs, or actually is it necessary to back it up, can't i have the patched modem and kernel files for solving this issue whenever it arises?

Hi sorry I have been away from computer i'm glad to see you got it working You will always need to use a patched modem and kernel the only way to return to normal would have been to backup your efs before it got changed. As for backing up your efs you can back it up with PhilZ recovery I'm not sure about twrp iv'e not used it for a while. There are are a few apps/programs that can back it up also just do a search on xda. But remember you will always need to use the patched modem/kernel if you change roms.

okay cool...but may you tell me why do i have to keep on using patched kernel and modem? even when changing rom, i had another I9300 which didnt involve flashing patched kernel and modem with every rom change, keeping in mind i was changing rom like twice or trice every month

Because when you flashed from 4.2 to 4.3 your efs got changed from efs v1 to efs v2 and in the process it got slightly corrupt so it was unable to read your modem ( This happens some times and you where unlucky) .This is a lesson for all people to make sure they backup the efs before flashing roms ( Especially the very first rom that they flash) it is the very first thing you should ever do.
IMEI changed after flashing to 4.3 jellybean GT-I9300

The one that says kernel is kernel patch and the one that says modem is the modem patch lol Try the mk6 modem and the mk6 kernel patch flash them in custom recovery with 4.3 rom. If you get bootloop reboot into recovery and factory reset. Please note this is not guaranteed to fix all imei issues but does help in some cases.

Is there a possibility that there's a way that I could just wipe my entire phone clean of all partition and data and start a fresh firmware update?, if so how can I do that, as I have a corrupted file then I think if it can be done it might just work a fresh firmware flash on a clean system??

Read here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-imei-efs-stuff-i9300-including-t2393289 << Also you can always pay for a service repair if the patched modems do not work.
important NB: TWRP recovery do support EFS backup with encryption, so i guess it is great to have a sensitive data such as EFS to be backed up with encrypted password, so i do recommend using it as a backup
Hello All, I'm pretty new to all this and am feeling out of my depth, however getting desperate and don't know where to turn next.
I am in Australia and purchased a brand new GT-I9300 from eBay around 3 weeks ago which was shipped from Shanghai, China.
It turned up running 4.1.2 and worked just fine. I tried using the software update feature on the phone to see if 4.3 was available, however, I got the error message to say that because the phone had been modified, software upgrades were unavailable. I mentioned this on a local forum here, and someone kind offered to help me upgrade to 4.3 using Odin.
Turns out the phone was shipped to me rooted and had SuperSU installed. Had to install and run Triangle Away to reset binary counter first. Then installed Odin and followed the links to the firmware and this is where it started going wrong. Fist attempt resulted in a boot loop and could not enter recovery mode to factory reset, however could access download mode, so flashed with 4.3 recovery firmware which got the phone to boot up. Then flashed 4.3 stock firmware again, which was successful this time. However, when trying to make calls or send text messages, the error message on the screen is "Not registered on network". Have tried going back to 4.1.2 and upgrading using Kies, but same result. Then tried the patch from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2745274 and still no luck.
I then sent the phone half way across Australia to Official Samsung Specialist Repair Centre, however, they called me yesterday, to say that because it was an international model, they can't/won't help as they don't have access to international firmware.
If anyone here can help me to get this phone working again, I would be very grateful. Thanks.

Many thanks tallman43, I managed to get someone to give me a hand with giving your idea a try. Just wanted to let you know that it worked, and my GT-I9300 is now back up and connecting to the network and running with 4.3. Thanks again, and much appreciated.
