Unless you can get odin to connect then try flashing one of the repackaged stock firmwares using recovery method.

sorry pal but it does not work i some how got odin working and flashed stock firmware factory reset and still "refreshing sim data"
In that case you have a hardware fault, start with the sim reader.

@the_ziom i had the same annoying Refreshing SIM DATA popup until yesterday, i bought my Note 4 unlocked, it came with kitkat, so after flashing lollipop this message started to appear. its annoying for sure and i couldn't find a solid fix on the internet, i even thought i had a faulty device, well, it came to my conclusions that when i was using kikat my problem was gone and after lollipop it started to appear again and again, so what i did i flashed my Kitkat Modem on Lollipop rom, guess what??
ITS GONEEEEE, and im finally happy with my device i have better signal better battery life, its incredible what a modem can cause, well i hope you do the same and PLEASE REPORT BACK, this also helped another friend here on xda who had the same issue, now hes happy too, i hope this fix work for you, cheers:fingers-crossed::highfive:

Hey guys, I'm in desperate need of some assistance here.
I have an international Galaxy S3 i9300, rooted and with CWM.
I flashed Criskelos XXDLH8 ROM yesterday, and I followed the instructions to the dot.
The flash seemed to be problem free.
However, once the phone booted and i was on the new ROM, i tried to make a call, but I kept getting an error message saying "not registered on network".
I instantly freaked out, and wiped my phone+cache, and flashed stock Samsung ICS (XAALE8) via Odin.
The phone booted normally into the stock ICS. But instead of seeing signal bars on the status bar, all I can see now is just a circle with a line through it . :crying:
I did some research on the net, and didn't really find anything to help me, which is why I'm here, seeking ANY help from you guys.
I'm freaked out guys! Any assistance would be SO appreciated! thank you!
don't panic
go settings >wireless and networks more settings > access point names
make sure you have something in there
mine says Vodacom ( internet)
look up apn for your area.
otherwise you can try flashing a different modem for your region or even try another region from here

Hey mate, thanks for the suggestion.
But my problem arent my APN settings.. I am not able to obtain access to the network anymore All i can see instead of signal bars is a circle with a line through it :crying:
And yes, Ive tried flashing different modems, and ive tried various ICS kernels as well.. no luck
My IMEI has not changed or been deleted (EFS seems to be intact), in case you were wondering.. hmm...
I have no idea whats wrong with my S3
hmmm try perhaps restoring efs folder from backup
sorry seems like you've tried all my ideas.
could be something really silly like sim card wrong way or not nicely in check that.

Just restored my EFS folder from a backup i made.. no luck.. hmm..
My sim card works on my spare phone, so thats not the problem.. do u think it might be an issue with my sim card slot?
I mean, i didnt physically drop the phone or anything, this issue seems to have originated after flashing that custom ROM...
Thanks anyways for your suggestions mate, appreciate everything I really hope someone can help me out here, im kinda lost..Sigh
Im also encountering the same proble. But instead, i have network signal (there are signal bars), but i am un able to send/receive messages and calls. I still have the same IMEI number but my Serial Number became 00000000.
Please help!

hey dude,
i tried pretty much every software fix i could find.. but no luck i returned the phone and got it replaced. Apparently, there was an issue with the radio on the motherboard.
Goodluck mate!

Are you sure the firmware is suitable for your model for your phone's factory? There are at least three regions of producing Galaxy S3 International version. Some final product made in Vietnam and Korea has a lot of problems and need to be changed to the board made in China due to software problem. You should try using the "Firmware Upgrade And Initialization" in the "Tools" in the Samsung KIES 2.5 because it will download the latest official firmware according to your model and serial number and it will wipe your phone at the same time.

Thanks for your support.
I tried to repair using the firmware update and initialization, but I could not find exactly where it is. I could reach a pop-up window saying that if my phone had a problem it would be listed in this window... Not sure if I am doing it correctly.
Do you have any tutorial link/post where I can find the proper instructions for it? I am familiar with odin, but not kies...
Thanks in advance!

You can find this function in your Samsung KIES 2.5 which is the software to be installed in your computer. Then you will see the top bar, one of them is Tools and you will find the function in the Tools menu.
Most likely a locked phone ...

It sounds very much like a locked phone that was unlocked in a suboptimal way
Unless you have the original EFS (on which you might try to do a cleaner unlock) you will be "condemned" to always need a patched modem.
The short story is that network locking is done in a protected/checksumed database in the EFS partition and some older unlocks were not even attempting to keep the database "clean" - they were forcing a flag there but since there was some other check at a later time you need a special "patch" in the GSM modem code - that is located in a different partition and might be a little different from one country/carrier to another. Unfortunately the modem is (usually) updated with major ROM updates, so you have now lost that patch - but you can take a look below for a fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601
The bottom line is that (unless you restore original EFS and do a very clean unlock) you will always have to re-apply the modem after you program a new full ROM!
Hi
I'm having a problem where my S3 go into bootloop after backing up and restoring efs using Nitrality
I can go into recovery mode and download mode
I have tried Factory Reset, delete cache and flashing stock rom 4.1.2 using Odin, it was succesfull but my S3 still go into bootloop
Any tips?
Thanks
are you sure you flashed the correct rom? are you sure it's the i9300?
if you flashed a stock rom, did a factory reset, and it's not working, send it in
I forgot to mention that I've also restore my backup through recovery mode and the bootloop problem still exist
I'm thinking about bringing my phone to Samsung Service Center but I can't because my binary counter aren't zero
Is there anyway using triangle away through recovery mode or Odin?
I think I've flashed the correct rom because I've used it before
Thanks
Just did a quick search and came across this. It says its a solution, i guess you have nothing else to loose.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38780087#post38780087
Thank you but my phone can't even connect to Kies it keep says connecting
Did you happen to know a way to use triangle away from odin or recovery mode

I'm afraid i don't, a long shot but you could try flashing a 4.0.4 official firmware to see if that does anything. i had the same problem with my Tab 2 (not saying that this will work on the I9300) and i flashed back to 4.0.4 let it boot, then rooted it and flashed up to 4.1.2.
Good luck.

As i said above, my problem was with my Galaxy Tab 2 P3110 not my Galaxy s3 I9300 so which Rom i was using would be irrelevant to you. I was however running 4.1.2.
Hope you manage to fix it.

I know that, it's just that I heard Samsung blacklist old bootloader on 4.1.2 update so you can't install older bootloader
that's why I'm kinda afraid this trick wouldn't work because of it
Thanks for your help
Well, I was using the sungsonic rom on my Tab 2. With my S3 I did run 4.2.1 and my bluetooth and wifi AP didn't work which I read was possibly a bootloader issue and the fix was to flash back to 4.0.4 with odin and rooted then flashed to 4.1.2 and that fixed it for me.
Give it a go and let us know how you get on.
I've just flash my phone using ICS stock ROM and it work again
but now I have a new problem
1.my stock lockscreen doesn't work
2.when I press the power button it turn off my phone instead of giving me an option to turn off, restart, go into plan mode etc
3.I can't use my sim card because the phone doesn't start the program where I have to insert my simcard pin
Any idea what I should do now?
not sure about those. but for the sim have you gone to settings - security - sim card lock and had a look at the options there?

I can't do that on my S3 because my sim is locked
but I've managed to do it by using my other phone
I've disable the simcard pin security, now I can use my simcard on my S3 because I don't have to enter the Pin again
Thanks you've been a great help to me :good:
it's an international version. GT-I9300, never been rooted or flashed with custom rom. the rom has been stock since day 1.
anyway, i was using it just fine then suddenly i found it stuck at the Galaxy S3 boot screen, tried pulling batt out, restart, etc and nothing works.
Recovery mode doesn't work too, stuck at the boot screen
odin mode isnt much better, gives me the option to flash rom or restart phone. Restarting phone brings me back to square 1. flashing rom and it stays there forever.

Choice flash stock rom through Odin or take to a service centre .
jje
since just 1 day just send to service center
else download firmware from sammobile website and flash using odin
*make sure you install samsung kies because it also install samsung usb driver, you need the usb driver to use odin
Bin it..
Throw in bin go back to wildfire s..failing that give self a hand job..good luck with either decision xX
i'm trying to get a new phone since there's a MMC bug thing.
I downloaded this app to check whether my phone is affected by this mem bug and turns out i was. but the problems never manifested itself until a few mths ago and last night was the worst.

Samsung Service Center , claim the warranty,, u got new motherboard lol and sudden death fixed
Does flashing the stock rom via odin delete all the data on the phone?
I've some voice recordings i wish to recover.
If i were to flash the stock rom, do I have to flash the original rom? Does it get back the internal memory?
or if I flash some custom rom, can I get back the internal memory?

If you've been hit with SDS, which looks likely, flashing stock rom won't work. TBH I think any data that's on the phone is gone completely. Sorry.

Hey
I bought a used s3 so i dont have any idea whether the phone is carrier locked or not but it was rooted when i got it and was on 4.0.4 i wanted to update it and it took me quite sometime to figure it out
I tried odin and many other softwares in start but no success anyhow later on one night my phone was about to turn off and i had to keep it on so i removed the battery stats and the next morning whenever i made a call the call would last for about 6 mins and in the same time cell would show a message i.e. process.adroid.com.phone has stopped working when i pressed OK the signals would go away and after 2-3 secs they would come back on the same hand when somebody called me i wasnt able to pick their calls because the same message i.e. process.adroid.com.phone has stopped working would pop up.
Anyhow finally after 4-5 days i thought of flashing a custom rom becuz i though i had corrupted my modem so i downloaded this file
downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS3/roms/leaked4.2.2/Rooted-I9300XXUFME3-4.2.2.zip
and flashed it. It was in hebrew i guess and after flashing it i stopped getting sound on call both when i received one or made one. I got a YELLOW BOX as well on home screen and app screen. Rest was working fine sim card was detected, i could use whatsapp, listen to songs, wifi worked fine, in short everything except calling worked fine
Then a friend of mine told me that i had installed a wrong rom so he gave me a link and i flashed this rom this time
omega-roms.net/blog/?page_id=763
Version 43.5
I.e. Jb 4.1.2
After flashing this rom i am still getting the yellow box that i got when i flashed my phone to 4.2.2 and i m stuck with emergency calls only everything else works fine. I have checked emei it matches that on the back of phone
Information regarding my phone is
Model Number: GT-I9300
ANDROID VERSION: 4.1.2
BASEBAND VERSION: I9300XXEMA5
Older baseband was
I9300BULE6
It had vodafone app as well before i flashed that jewish ROm

Please help me out!
1st of all next time buy the phone from someone trusted i bought mine from a close friend and it was almost like new
as for your problem i think it's the sim card doesn't work since the phone might be locked so try galaxy sim unlock from google play if that's the problem you should get the network back
Come on it was working fine a few days back there must be a solution!

You may want to go back to the stock rom using Odin and see if this fixes the issue. That is the only thing I can suggest at this point since you said you've done everything else. When you bought this phone did you swap the sim card? You may also want to get that replaced and see if that works. Good luck.

Yes finally i have removed the microsim using pin i want to see if the same issue persists with any other sim. The sim module must be fine becaue when i removed the sim card it showed insert sim card
About hardware problem. How can you say that? I could make a call 6 mins long and couldnt receive it on my prev 4.0.4 version then later on on Jb 4.2.2 i was able to make calls but with no sound but now i get emergency calls only So this is not a hardware problem and the baseband has changed can it be the reason?
The app says the phone is unlocked so is it actually unlocked or is there any hard secondary lock which this app is not able to detect?

Please read the rules this is not a fix your phone service centre . If you want help don't be rude . Start at the beginning the original post is confusing and much of the process carried out are wrong . Start by factory reset phone and then flash the stock firmware via Odin from sammobile.com that is for your phone and network .But not any 4.2.2 version . Alternative if you are rooted and have CWM recovery is to format sd card system cache data and preload . Boot to download mode and flash stock rom via Odin . Then check your IMEI matches that under the battery . Test phone . jje

If you've tried everything else, I suggest you take it to Service Centre near you. Looks like that fall is to be blamed.
P.S. Please post device related issues in their specific forums. That way you will get faster and better answers! :good:

Thanks for quick reply and sorry for the wrong post,i will take it to service center though i live in island where there is no good service center i need to travel by sea to get to good service center by nextweek thanks once again Regard:good:
I think you've lost your IMEI! here is a guide for recovering it. If you didn't root your phone to void your warranty, it's better to take it to a service center then.

im out of warranty and i took it to service center but they tried without success Due to baseband and imei unknown problem,the guy told me that it is software he flashed it several times but it didn't work,so i have to take it back,i will try the link and give u feed back,thanks for your help
i tried that link but unfortunately it didnt work may be is because i didnt have backup of esf files i missed some of the files like .nv_data i only have nv_data.bak,
So, your SIM card lost contact when the phone hit the floor and then instead of trying to remove the SIM card and put it back in you went and flashed the phone to solve the problem and that resulted in loosing IMEI number?
The Custom Rom you installed didn't make backup of your EFS folder?

yes exactly when the phone hit the floor and then instead of trying to remove the SIM card and put it back in i went and flashed the phone to solve the problem and that resulted in loosing IMEI number, but before i flashed it i made a backup of my rom using twrp but after this crash i restore my rom using the same twrp but my phone hang on booting,i was using ApoloJb_4.8_Extremev2_twrp kernel
the phone is acting very strength now,i found out even when i installed stock rom, my files are still on the phone,i used odin flashed it,please can any one provide link for me on how to fresh install stock rom and clear everything on the phone
How to install stock rom ? Search. This has been covered here thousands of times over the past two years, I'm not about to regurgitate it because you can't be bothered searching. Get a stock rom for your carrier/country from Samfirmware, then read the guides/tutorials stickied near the top of the General section.
If you want this fixed it's going to take a bit off effort on your part, we can't do everything for you.
Have you
1) Try another SIM card?
2) Look at the mobile network setting? Look for any abnormal setting? can search the mobile provider etc?
3) Try to flash another modem driver?

Hi, to add on, maybe you should tried again flashing with different modem/radio. The different ROM that you flashed may be using the same modem/radio and they may not work on your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
This link seems to have mentioned various modem/radio for S2. You may want to try it. You may want to refer to another working S2 and check out what is the working modem/radio working well in your area. Then you flash in the same radio/modem.
If this still does work, it may be really the dropping of your phone has kill some physical part of your phone?

still don't work? strange!
just now i experienced the similar issue like yours, no signal bar. this happen after my phone become no respond to any key press. i have to hard power up through long press. when it power up i then see that there is no signal.
so i quickly go to recovery and flash a Modem/radio that i downloaded earlier.
after flash and it booted with good signal.
but my cause of issue i believe is kernel related as i just flash a dorimanx kernel yesterday.
