How can I do that?
Read the basics before you flash any rom or mod .

Your IMEI should match under the battery if you have wrong then restore your backed up EFS folder . If you failed then its a samsung job .
If you did not flash firmware for your region then the modem and or CSC may not be compatible .
Suggest you restore your original saved firmware .

No Network SIgnal

Hello,
My problem is very big.
I flashed my S3 back to CM10.1, and now i have not signal.
My IMEI is the IMEI from the first day.
I Have not signal on Stock or other Roms, what is the problem?
I have a ktool EFS backup.
Have you the correct modem and CSC for your network ???
Did you configure your network settings .
No signal suggests wrong IMEI .
Damaged EFS folder = restore your EFS backup
Or a hardware problem return to service .

All are correct, i would return it..

Bearing in mind that you have no warranty with root custom rom and rom counter above zero.
See return for warranty how to posts .

flash the stock ROM with the correct modem first
This?

I don't know, whatever the latest firmware is. Make sure the csc is correct and try different modems
Where i get the modems for that version, it is the 4.1.2 JB i had it before flashing CM10.1.

READ the faqs and guides before flashing .
Is your IMEI correct of not restore your backed up EFS folder .
No EFS backup as per the instructions then you require a service centre repair .
Read the faqs and guides critical to understand post one and two BEFORE flashing
before sending to service center you can try installing a stock rom from sammobile via odin. this sometimes recovers the imei and network connection. you need to install a stock rom and reset your flash counter anyway if you want to keep your warranty
Make sure to flash a recent rom that uses mg2 or mg4 baseband.

What modem did you install? if you installed XXEMG4 it would have formatted your 'efs'
Check your IMEI by dialing *#06#
for more info check this link
The modem does not format or erase the efs folder. It alters the format so older modems can't use it. That is why if there is no efs backup prior to using mg4 or mg2 modem. It is impossible to revert to older modem

Its actually the rom not the modem and yes, ultima is based on a version of the rom that alters efs.

Not sure what you're asking.
Read general > Sticky roll-up thread > "IMEI / EFS - Know this stuff"
Everything I have read, but if you want to return a Nandroid backup, if you will?
It's nowhere
if your nandroid backup does not use an mg2 or mg4 modem than it will not restore your network. if you want to fix your phone go to sammobile.com choose any rom that uses mg2 or mg4 modem. flash it with odin. if that doesn't work take it to a service center

Questions go in the q&a forum, report your post and ask for it to be moved.
Your problem is most likely either the modem or efs folder, go read the stickies -especially this one:

Don't worry you just messed up your efs with the new modem that latest 4.1.2 have, so now If you want to flash 4.2.2 and get carrier signal you just need to flash latest modem (baseband) g2/g4. (xxuemg2/xxuemg4).
If I helped you press thanks!

Updating from samsung 4.1.2 to slimbean 4.2.2

In the past i tried to update from 4.1.2 to 4.3 and my imei has changed to 0049
I understan its related to the new modem.
Now i have a brand new s3 and i want to go back to slimbean 4.2.2
Is it dangerous to update from 4.1.2 to SB 4.2.2 ?
Is there any chance that my imei will change again or its using the old modem?
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply but yet, i couldn't find an answer.
Is it ok to update to SB 4.2.2 with out messing up my IMEI?
It wont normally mess up your IMEI. It will on the other hand change your efs to the newer efs v2. Which should be no problem if you backup your IMEI in the first place and as all XXEMG4 or beyond use efs v2 your fine.
You should read this thread again which was already posted by JJegan. Everything is explained there.
