Hello guys,
I`ve been watching all this topics for a while cuz I have some problems with my Galaxy S3. I`ll tell you what i did.
All worked fine, had the 4.1.1 official rom + root, then i wanted to go to 4.1.2 so i flashed an UK stock ROM. After that i kept getting the "Sim has been removed" error need restart bla bla.. so i search all around for a fix.. i changed 2 SIM cards and nothing. Then I flashed a Poland version 4.1.2 Stock. That version was better but I encountered the "Call ended" error.. calls would end after 3-4mins or i could not call at all. Then i flashed (and this is when the problem started) Stock Vodafone Spain and got "No network". I must say my IMEI/ SN all are intact.
Then I patched only radio modem from the UK ROM with Odin, but with "PHONE" option (i know i did wrong).. i wanted to change only the modem and it worked cuz i checked with *#1234#.. but from that moment not even one ROM has worked in showing me the network. On About phone says "Network: Unknown". Sometimes it connects to Vodafone but when I try to call says "No network service".
Now my phone is in second service and they can`t make it get a network on. They tryed the neverlock thing but i think was already unblocked.
I tryed rooting and using this Ariza. and were 2 versions there.. I tryed v5 only and didnt worked.
I tried the ##72786# and I get the following message: Connection Problem or invalid MMI code (found somewhere that for this code i need to have Wifi on to work?)
Now i`m thinking to get my phone back and dunno reflash with a good .pit file ? or just reRoot and try v4 Ariza.. I`m really sad, it`s been 5 days and I can`t think on nothing else to do.. I even called Samsung official service and they said to send it to them.
If you have any idea, pls need help. tnx
Check your IMEI is the same as under the battery .
Samsung will reject warranty .

you are right.. IMEI and SN are not the same.. pff what to do now?
Restore your backed up EFS folder.
jje
But i think i backed up the EFS folder with the modified IMEI. What can i do now?
nothing. replace the motherboard
SOLVED!
Ok so tnx to JJEgan i checked all the IMEI numbers and only 2 of them were modified. Thing is before I pached the v5 Ariza, I did a EFS backup with that program. That backup img saved my phone.
Firstly I got my phone back from service with 4.2.1 official ROM (thats nice, cost me 0 $ ). I rooted with CF-Auto and used Ariza patch (v4). But my imei was still wrong so after that I used EFS_Backup_Restore_new_ADB.rar to restore my IMEI/SN with the old EFS backup then I used another programEFS Professional v2.0. I checked the option to repair No network and clicked Restore. After that I restarted my phone and I got the messages from provider with APN settings and so on.
Thank you for the help :good:
worked till first restart... now No network again, I`m not a samsung/android fan anymore..

Do you have a nandroid backup of your system? I lost baseband and imei recently, and I restored my backup, then I got baseband and imei back.
That's all I have, sorry, I'm not an expert in these things. Hopefully someone can help out.

Hey everyone!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge G925F that will not connect to a cellular network and wont display my IMEI serial number or SIM Status.
I have tried everything:
Flashing Stock ROM with ODIN (Just get a fail)
Flashing multiple modems and AP's
Backing up and restoring my efs
The phone still boots and I have backups of my supposedly corrupted EFS
This happened after flashing a 5.1.1 rom in ODIN
My stock rom is: G925FXXS4DPIB
Nothing works. Please I need help and I dont have access to a Octopus box to re write my efs either, is there a way I can fix it.
When I put my phone into diagnostic phone with qualcomm's tools I just get a "Device has malfunctioned" error, I'm using Windows 10 64bit

Wow that's the most awful thing that can happen to you.. I had the same problem as you on a MTK device.... I don't know about this device. But I tried with a app that let's you rewrite the IMEI number.. but this didn't worked for me.. maybe it will work for you.. wait some other guys here will respond asap .. also check on YT about your problem. I am sure there you will find what are looking for.

The imei app your talking about only masks the imei number and doesn't permanently change it back to what it was. Thanks for trying to helping though
