First of all please forgive me that I had to create a new thread for things which are explained already plenty of times. the only thing happening is that all the things explained earlier, are not working in my case. Guys please help me. everything was running fine until I decided to switch to stock 2.3.3. I was unaware with this baseband thing. I switched to stock 2.3.3. I did not like it, so decided to roll back to cm7, I did, and here i am with no signal in my phone... I did flash the old baseband, but am still stuck with no signal... am in real trouble, and now if I again switch to stock 2.3.3, then also I dont get a network coverage at all. Please help me buddies
And yes one more thing, even if I flash back the old stock froyo, via kdz or lgmdp, I cant get the network coverage ... the guy at LG service center says there's some problem with the board ... but I dont think its the board problem, is there any way to diagnose this issue or am I *ucked?

What ROM are you running on, Their are a few ROMs that haven't fixed network issues, If you are using a iHO ROM then have you tried the Airplane Mode Fix?
right now I have flashed stock gingerbread. that 'v20g' one. but if u say, i will switch to another rom whichever u say... I tried stock froyo, mik's cm7, and void.# forever's cm7. none of those fixes the signal, I even tried the new baseband patch provided by mik, not working :'(
What phone do you have. Do you have an optimus v,you have to use a ROM for it.

no there wasnt any problem, and yes I can see my imei in settings, which I found correct.
then i think there is problem in hardware.
Flash original rom and recovery and take phone to service center, if you have warranty phone will be repaired for free.

Flashed my first rom (myth ics beta) too days ago everything worked fine at first but then I flashed to a different rom (icecreemsunday) just to see what the difference was then flashed back and now I cant send texts.
Everything else still works fine and the roms are so much faster than stock. Is there any way to fix this?
(excuse my english, its not that im foreign or anything im just **** at english and posting from my tablet with no spellchecker )
My wife had a similar issue. Flash back to stock and try again. God know what happens.

I flashed back to a custom stock rom and it still doesn't work.
Is there anyway to get back onto the Samsung rom without kies (as it doesn't work on Linux, or i haven't managed to find a Linux build of it)?

I tried using odin to flash to firmware version S5830XWKPN from samfirmware
and after that did a factory reset. It still refuses to work. Is that an official Samsung build?

Did you have Message Centre Number on Messaging setting?
yeah, the number is 447958879890 if that means anything to you.

If that's going to be your last option, make sure everything is stock and no root. Lol, wouldn't want them to find out all those changes and say no to the repair xD

Just look for the official rom for your country ours in the phils is I think DXKC1
4 months ago i've rooted my Galaxy S3 international (I-9300). Before rooting i took a nandroid backup of the Samsung's ICS. Then i flashed CM10 and recently (1 month ago) i flashed CM10.1. Everything was working OK (except some issues that come with the CM10-10.1). I also came against the SOD (Screen of Death) but as the devs warned us i was OK with that. From time to time i flashed a newer version of the CM10.1 nightly (recent one was 4th of Jan 2013).
Today as i was sitting in my office i picked up my device and pressed the power button just to check the time. The device did not respond and i presumed that it was another case of SOD. So i removed my battery and put it back inside as i always did when a SOD occured. I long-pressed the power button but nothing happened. I went to the nearest Samsung supplier and i bought a brand new Samsung battery to replace the old one but the device never powered up. Now i am stack with a device that cannot power up. I cannot get into download mode as well.
Is it a case of a bricked device? If it is, is there anything i can do to bring it back to life?
Thanks in advance!
In this case you cannot do much....take it to center and require motherboard replacement, if its case of brickbug it will he warranty covered....right now im interested if you flashed XXELLA or newer bootloader or did you flash kernel compiled from 7th source from samsung?

Sudden death, all you can do is get a motherboard replacement at a service center, however they may never know you flashed CM10.1 because the NAND is dead.

Thanks for the quick reply but i am not sure i can help you with the bootloader! I am not an advanced user. I just used Odin v3.04 to flash CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4. When i finally rooted my device i downloaded the CM10 and afterwards the CM10.1 rom and flashed it along with the GAPPS. And then i used a program to match the modem with the RIL (XXDLID). Ofcourse i fixed permissions.
One thing i need to know? Does the phone stays in the warranty if you root it?

You mean that i shouldnt say anything about root and CM10.1 right?
Also, is there a way for the technicians to find out that i've rooted the device and flashed CM10.1? I mean on a device that it cant even power on!
ps: i live in Cyprus (small island in the meditteranean sea) , so there isnt any advanced service center to examine my motherboard (at least i hope so).

Don't mention it, don't say anything about firmware, if they ask play dumb and just say the latest version, it's up to them to prove your warranty is void, also is Cyprus in the EU? If so check this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092530&highlight=eu
In short for your warranty to be voided by flashing Samsung has to prove that it was CM10.1 that caused the problem.
I don't think this will be needed though because your NAND is completely dead so it will be extremely hard if possible for them to prove you flashed anything.

Yes Cyprus belongs to EU.
I will not mention a thing about firmware and CM hoping they dont find it out.
In the meantime, if they replace the motherboard, i will be running Android with Touchwiz by default?

Yes you will be on touchwiz, but you can always change that
I have no idea which version though, it depends what they flash at the factory.

Samsung should worry about their skin, because i am a user that rooted his device to flash a custom ROM, then the device is not booting by any means and i am thinking to root it again after the motherboard is replaced!!
By the way, the problem on the motherboard is caused 100% because i root the device??
Thanks so much for your answers!

No it is not caused by rooting your device. Your case is a typical Sudden Death Syndrome one. For more info go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091045
You said that the last CM 10.1 you installed was from 04.01.13? Well in that case the Samsung Update7 source wasn`t applied yet to CM10.1 Kernel, so the Kernel was not secure.

I didnt find the time to read the thread you post (i am reading it later on). So the not secure Kernel could cause this?

Yes there is a problem with a specific type of eMMC chips in the SIII. There is plenty of evidence now that Samsung fixed this issue with the Update7 Source release and most S3 Kernels have this fix by now. You can read it in detail by clicking the link I posted a couple of posts ago.
I hope that they will repair your device without any problems but they should and if you couldn`t even access download mode it`s pretty much impossible to find out that you had Root or a custom ROM installed.

Some people are saying that the kernel fixes it some are saying they havent, but the service center should fix it because its a known problem.
Also the latest kernel has only been rolled out in UK and Spain. If there has not been a stock update available in your country there is really nothing they can do.

I don`t know of any case where someone had an SD while having a fixed Kernel installed. But you are right that nobody knows 100% if the fix really works.

I will let you know of the outcome!

Hey guys,
I have a similar problem except that my screen turns on and shows the Galaxy S3 logo when I try to power it on but it won't go further (shows logo until I pull the battery). It doesn't boot into recovery either but I can start download mode.
The phone just turned off while I was listening to music. I think I was running Omega v27.
So my question is: Should I try flash a stock ROM since I can boot into download mode? And is this even "sudden death"?
Thanks in advance!
Half of sudden death. You should also get the phone to samsung

I would take that to samsung, toy could try flashing stock but if it wasn't a failure flashing something I'm not sure it would work.
I would imagine it will fail before it tries to flash.

So I really have to return it but:
since the phone boots into download mode they will see that I used a custom firmware. Any chance to change this?
I flashed my s3 more than 20 times so far and everything was ok since last night when it turns on normaly but when he came to choose country and language I noticed that my touch screen dont work, than I flashed official samsung rom via odin of course and flashing was ok but touchscreen still the same! I flashed several time with official rom but same thing every time! Pleese help I dont have contract so can any1 tell me is this software problem or hadware! If you know how to fix it I would be very thankfull....

I have a Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 on o2 uk which i have had unlocked at a phone shop so i can use it in t-mobile. Water got spilt on my Galaxy S3 a few months ago, the phone died but eventually came back to life after drying it out although the screen didnt work and it wouldnt boot properly . I took it to a phone shop who said they replaced some ribbons, its now working fine except the mobile data just doesnt work.
Its currently on 4.1.2 and want to update to 4.2.2 just to see if this will fix it.
I cant update ota because the device has been modified (guessing because of the unlock). Will I lose my unlock if I flash the firmware to 4.2.2 with odin? Or does anyone have any more ideas of ways I could try to fix it.
