Hello Everyone,
Just brought used Samsung I9200 but it is acting strange.... When i start it, it is showing Samsung Galaxy I9200 and when i install any Stock 4.4.2 on it, it get stuck in reboot loop. Then when i flash recovery, custom rom after rooting it from recovery it boot fine but in IMEI it is showing 0
I installed and tested many device info apps from market and it is showing model as I9205. Is this mean it is I9205 and someone in past loaded i9200 rom thats why it is in reboot loop? I flashed 3 different stock roms ie; from russia, saudi arabia and uae but with every of these i9200 rom it never boot and always get stuck in reboot loop even recovery is not accessible during reboot loop but download mode can. So, when it get stuck in reboot loop i always do recovery, rooting and then custom rom. But, IMEI is 0 with no phone calls and No SMS actually no network at all. Even the sticker under the battery is not clear showing IMEI or model correctly
Some help will be really appreciated...

Hi xda , i have this china-bought Galaxy S3 GT-I9300.
It started out with gps not working and i tried to flash a stock rom using odin (device was rooted) and it failed after countless flashings.
And then whenever I tried to boot the device again it was stuck at the ''Samsung GALAXY SIII GT-I9300'' screen. not sure if it was a bootloop but it was just hanged there. I have cwm recovery mode but i can't access download mode however i tried. And all of my computers cant seem to detect the device. so basically the thing i am able to access now is the cwm recovery mode. i tried various roms but to no avail.(they all hanged while installing system files)
Some specs about this device i know:
- Board : uniscope77_bu3_cu_ics2
- CPU : armeabi-v7a
some additional info : i once formatted everything on the device using cwm (internal storage , system , everything)
-I tried reset to factory settings countless times too but they were all stuck at the ''Samsung GALAXY SIII GT-I9300'' screen.
-Its original stock firmware was from china and yes , ive tried using china stock rom and all i get was blahblahblah and a ''(bad)'' thing.
if you need anything else like what other things i did to the device pls tell me. pls help me solve this problem thanks you ^_^

Where did you bought it?
China
your screwed the only thing you can do is download Chn_Chn Firmware from Samsungs website and flash it though odin. And that's the only fimrware that will work, unless you flash a custom bootloader through your sd card as then it will overwrite the encrypted boot.img allowing you flash any European Firmware.
Need help on corrupt EFS issue. I bought Korean variant E-210s. It came with modified ROM for GT-i9300 (i9300ZSALG3). I thought it was the international version and that's why I flashed the JB ROM (update) for GT-i9300 using ODIN. Now, I am stuck on Samsung logo and OS is not loading. I can access the Download mode and Recovery. In Recovery, it shows "unable to mount E:" error when I flash any rom. So, I am stuck here. Need your valuable suggestions on this.
P.S. local service center guy says it's an corrupt EFS issue.
I m having a problem with my s3.while i was on custom rom,it battery went down to zero and never turned on.Then i boot it into recovery and there showed cant mount efs so i googled it over the net and found the solution to past bootloops.After successfull boot the imei was changed.Now,whatever i do with the phone ,its imei is not changing.please help me on this....
Device-samsung s3 international
Custom rom-cdroid
Hello and thank you for using Q/A,
have you tried to flash Stock?
Yeah....flashed already many stock rom as well as custom but still no luck....even tried previous backup and still same problem
Hope someone can help me here . First when I bought my phone I'm sure it is a gt 9300 I succeeded at rooting it but never flashing a costum recovery (I tried Odin ,flashify ..everything ) the phone just didn't boot into recovery even the stock one so I thought the bootloader maybe is locked so I used an app to unlock it (don't remember which ) but it just hard bricked it .so I take it to a repair shop they try everything but the phone don't boot so they change the motherboard which lead to my problem now .I rooted the phone again but I still can't boot into recovery even stock one and the thing is I noticed that in the download mode screen it's written that this phone is a sgh 1747 but when I start the phone it shows gt 9300 even in the about phone section
So which one is it ?
So no one has an idea bout this .
Well I succeeded at flashing a custom recovery .I used a sgh 1747 one .I guess I should flash a custom 1757 rom too.
The model number in download is the model number for the motherboard and associated components. If the model is sgh-i747, the motherboard is from an at&t s3.
I9300 has 1gb of ram. The rest have 1.5gb of ram.

Yes an i747 recovery and custom ROM worked ,flashed lineage os 14.1 successfully .
Hi, people at the xda forum!
I got a s6 edge g925l from a friend that showed an invalid imei (350000000005), it was working fine before suddently it stopped getting service, so i flashed the stock original firmware from sammovile, for that particular model, thinking that it might been something software related, it flashed ok, at first boot it took me to the stock recovery and i can see 2 errors at the bottom,
"cant mount /efs" (i expected that since the efs partition might have been corrupted before) and somthething about dm-veridity
thing is that it wont boot into the OS, it shows the s6 edge logo and then it fades to black, with a blue led in the top, i installed twrp via odin ver(3.1.1) and i can flash zip files normally, i can get it to download mode without issues, im looking for some ideas as to what can be happening
Why wont let me boot into the OS (Regardless of the Null imei, i dont really care about the imei at this point) i just want the phone to boot into the OS.
Any idea or sugestion will be greatly apreciated..
Thanks in Advice!
