Did your imei got changed as well? Can you check?
If do, your efs partition is corrupt if you have backed up your efs restore it

I don't understand efs partition and then i've no backup of this.

Can I read the IMEI from any file in the EFS folder?
When i put in the dialer " *#06# ", the imei is empty, blank, nothing appear !
Now i search with GSII_Repair and GS Unlock ...
Nothing work !
What can i do ?
Anybody for to help me ?
Traduction with google :
Well yet again I reflash via Odin then flashed a stock rom old bootloader to try to be back compatible with the jig.
I rebooted and telephone network operational! Imei apparent and the whole shebang!
My joy was short lived as I reboot, network ... more reboot back network ... I press the power button the screen freezes a little and reboot itself ...
Even when I turn it off, he goes out and comes back only after a few seconds ... he is in charge and I do not know if that's the reason ...
In short, everything here is more and more strange.
I must succeed in bringing this absolutely counter to 0 flash! Then keep a stock rom + kernel and correct modem. To erase all traces on the internal SD, a complete wipe / factory is not the guarantor?
Or what to delete and what to keep accurate please?
Edit: even more weird ... When I go through Settings / About Phone / Status / My phone number is completely wrong!
I just try to call the number listed and not assigned! If I call the right number, the two rings my SGS ...
I just got a galaxy S3 i9300 .... It is a used phone ...
Imei in phone info does not match the original imei, it starts 049*************
serial no 000000
SIM is not working ... I think it is locked with Vodafone UK
Lock screen was working fine on 4.0.4 .... but as i updated to 4.1.1
there is no Lock screen, phone is unlocked just by pressing home key or lock key ... no swipe nothing .... I tried changing lock modes but no help

You bought it like that? With the imei messed up?
Please return it and get your money back, if you haven't. The efs folder has been messed up.

With the imei broken, how do you expect to make calls? Or he won't use it as a phone?
Flash the rom again, and do a data wipe (through stock recovery). That should solve the issues you have.

Step one restore backed up EFS folder .
Fails or no backup its a paid for service repair .
Or you could read all the IMEI/EFS threads for more information .

Hello.
Today my Galaxy S2 i9100 got wet and stopped working. The phone started resetting infinitely until the screen kinda died. I took it for a repair and a guy opened the whole phone cleaned it and dried it. It was working as good as a new until I realized I had no phone signal or data. Baseband and IMEI were Unknown.
I'm using CM9 nightly with its stock kernel.
I have tried everything possible. Flashed new modems, used GS2 Repair, Restarted the phone with no SIM, used the two repair buttons on EFS Pro, etc. I seriously don't know what else to do.
Can I please get some help and sorry for my english.
Thanks in advance.
I'd say the board that has the USB connector is fried. This has your radio/baseband also. You could try getting that replaced, might work can't say it will for sure mate.

How can I be sure? I mean, when I plug it to the USB the PC dettect its inmediatly. It just says IMEI: Unknown, Baseband: Unknown, etc.
Is there a way to be sure it has to do with the board??? I thought it could be a software related thing since the cellphone rebooted like 5 times before the screen almost died out.
Thanks in advance.

Having the same problem
I'm having the same problem as well. My phone got wet then suddenly my phone lost it's imei and baseband became unknown. I've tried using EFS Pro, GSII_repair, as well as following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021 but nothing seems to be working.
And yeah, how do you check whether or not it's a problem with the board?
Hi all,
I have read through all the possible solutions that may have any relation to my problem,and I didn't find anything. So I just wanted to open my own thread about it.
I own a Samsung Galaxy S3, model no GT- I9300 with Android version 4.1.2, build no JZO54K.I9300XXELLA and as of a few months I'm not able to connect to the HSDPA or HSDPA+ network of my provider (Mobile Vikings Belgium). There is a perfect coverage of H and H+ where I live and I'm able to connect to it, but when I want to connect to the internet, i can't load web pages, or I can't access apps that need internet connection.
On the Samsung S3 there are 2 arrows that show download and upload, and only the upload arrow is blinking (the green one). My network mode is on auto, so that means it will connect to H when it's available, and it is, but only upload.
I already read stuff about changing something in the software by accessing the phone through an mmi code, but this doesn't work.
I didn't root my phone, i just have the original Kernel. The provider already helped me with possible changes in apn settings, but this doesn't help either. I figure it has something to do with my phone, and not the connectivity of the provider.
I hope somebody can help me out with this problem, because I am already connected to this slow Edge network for too long and I like to get what I paid for, like all you guys want.

Have you tried wiping all your data and your cache?
You can do this by powering off your device and then press and hold the Volume up button, the homebutton and the powerbutton at the same time. Then, It should boot in Recovery Mode. From there you can select Wipe all data and select it with the powerbutton.
Please note that you will lose all data that's on your device.
I know that Mobile Vikings EDGE can be a real pain in the ass!
First of all, thank you for that reply. I already did a factory reset. But I'm asking myself if this is the same thing as you just told me? I think it really has something to do with a setting on my phone, something that is blocked so that I can't get an H connection.

you need to install a custom recovery and flash different modems
I've got the exact same problem as you have. I'm also a viking.
Sometimes I just can't seem to use the data, I never got down to the conclusion that it might be the HSDPA but it makes sense.
It's only been a problem since I updated to 4.1 for me. When I first got my phone everything worked fine.
Is the only problem for this problem rooting and flashing the phone ?
If thats what it takes sure but it sounds like a mayor overkill to me.
-> I've just resolved the problem for me by taking another look at the apn settings by hand.
Mobile vikings texts you the settings, which work just find but not for the hsdpa.
If i edit my settings as they describe here: https://mobilevikings.com/bel/nl/setup/#/samsung/i9300-galaxy-s-iii/internet/handmatig-instellen
It seems to work for me now. I'll report back if it breaks again .
Thanks for some new insights on this problem. Can you explain me what "flashing to a new modem" means?
And I have to root my phone to solve it you all think? I'm just afraid that the whole thing won't work anymore because of that.

You dont need root to flash a modem ...If its a Odin flashable modem .
Modem/ Baseband is country ./ network specific for some a different modem may improve a bad signal .
Likewise CSC wrong may mean you have wrong network APN details unless you enter them manually .
Basics Faqs and Guides .includes flashable modems .

Hi. I just read some noob stuff on that link you've sent me. I decided to try flashing the modem. And I really hope it works. But when I want to download the file, I don't know if I have to take the cwm or Odin one. I don't have a rooted phone, but you said it wasn't needed. I have android 4.1.2.
My country and network is not in that list so I guess it's just that JB directory I needed to click.

I have I9300XXELLA as baseband. So I guess I can try the XXLL4 or XXELKC that are stated under 4.1.2 in the galaxy s3 modem/radio collection.

Guys, just had the same thing when switching back to my S2.
I got an sms with 'press this and you will get the correct settings'
When driving back from work someone just sent me a whatsapp and I couldn't open it up.
Just went to the apn settings ----->> more -> mobile networks -> access points names -> do a new apn and name it like 'mv2' or so
apn = web.be
username = web
password = web
No need to change something else! Save it and make sure it is selected
So you say I have to make another apn right next to the other one then? Or delete the other one but it has the same things in it. I put them in manually, so it's the same as your settings.

authentication type = not set
apn type = internet + mms

mnc = 20
All the rest except the apn user and pwd is empty
So I can just load this zip file on my sd card and put it on my phone without rooting it or make a recovery?

Nope, extract it on your computer and open Odin on your computer. Now, boot your phone in 'Download mode' (Hold power button, home button and volume down), next press the volume up button to proceed. Load the .MD5 file in the PDA section of odin and don't touch anything else. Press start to start the flashing. It should flash everything. Don't forget to wipe data and cache afterwards.

Thanks anyway everyone. I will report back on this issue when I tried it.

Hi all, on Sunday evening my rooted (omega v36) lost its connection to the network out of the blue for no reason, it had been running the rom for weeks with no changes, I've restored to stock, checked the imei for corruption & with network provider to make sure it's not blocked. The symptoms are that with a three sim I get signal bars, no data and when I try to make calls it says not registered on network, when I place in a Vodafone sim it gets data but says not registered on network. I'm totally at a loss and looks like I'm gonna have to sell for spares or repair. Does anyone have any ideas, is it any use to anyone as a spare or repair phone? I am in Southampton UK if anyone has any ideas maybe where I could take it etc.

When you pull the notification bar down, does it say 3 or emergency calls only?
When I get the emergency calls only it will say i'm not registered on the network. It could be a three problem, you can also try blowing into the SD card reader see if a little dust has got in there somehow.
After these try flashing a different rom, or restoring a nandroid, I got this on SuperNexus once, flashed stock and it worked fine, could be something has just messed up when you flashed.
Please post for help in the Q&A section

Shaun can I ask are you with t mobile? Ive recently got my phone back after experiencing the screen of the death. My s3 runs stock touch wiz and following 4 weeks I got the phone back last Thursday. Today after receiving a text message at 7am I've lost all network and when I go to settings > mobile networks the following error message appears: " insert sim card - insert sim card to access network services".
I've tested the micro sim in another S3 and it works fine leading me to believe once again the s3 has failed me after 7 days this time.

I had the same problem sometime back. The problem could be your modem/radio. I got help here but I cant remember where exactly. Try looking for ariza.zip file and use it to flash your modem. Hope it works.
