Maybe there is your?
PS. go to your Control Panel and add info about country you are from and your service provider. It can really help with problems like this
I have just bought a used O2 I9100P, O2 UK model.
When I connect with kies to update from GB 2.3.5 I get:
"your device does not support software upgrading via kies"
Anyone else had this problem?
My device is identified on Kies as... PDA:KJ4 PHONE:KI3 CSC:KJ2 (XXX)
On device info:
PDA : I9100PXXKJ4
PHONE : I9100PXXKI3
CSC : I9100PO2UKJ2
Further to this when I enter *2767*4387264636#
I get:
SELLOUT SMS
[1]Sellout SMS: OFF
[2]PCode:Not Active
[3]Moderod
I also have noticed the imei on about phone does not match the sticker inside the phone.
The phone seems to not be rooted. Could the previous owner have flashed a rom which changed the IMEI? I have no experience with rooting and flashing.
Any help with getting this phone back to stock GB or ICS and the correct IMEI would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply and taking the time, the phone works perfectly and it is a Public model according to the about phone section, also it has nfc in settings and it works when I enable it.
Is your imei this one?
004999010640000
If so then you have my phone!

Take out the battery. The sticker on the backside of the phone should give you correct model no.
I have a I9100P and mine says that, on the sticker along with IMEI No & serial No.
Does the IMEI No match your phone," dial *#06#

The IMEI on the sticker inside the phone does not match the one that comes up when I dial *#06#
Also the IMEI appearing on screen is not the standard 004999010640000.
The one on screen ends 787 the one on the box ends 777.
Sound like your imei is corrupted.

If I flashed the official I9100P O2 ICS ROM using Odin, would my phone be fixed in terms of being able to recieve future updates from Kies or OTA?
Someone also had mentioned checking the boot display to see if I9100P or I9100 appears and it does appear as I9100P - see attached.
Thanks again.

yes you will be able to recieve updates from kies.
I have the Orange I9100P and yes thats what you get on the boot display, however if you flash the old bootloader, you will just get I9100 displayed instead. You will stll have all the NFC funtions though.
here is the 02 latest i9100p ICS firmware.

Thanks for the link, I had been reading that thread and, I have went ahead and flashed ICS with Odin, it's working fine so far.
Hi guys!
I recently bought my first andoid phone, which is the GS3, so i have little knowledge about android OS. So, i bought it in a mall which basically sells all electronic devices, but most of them are unofficial, which means they snuck up the devices to the country (china) from other countries.
I received my GS3 on 4.0.4 and i have no idea whether it was a custom ROM or not, all i know is that when i check for an update on the settings page, it failed to process with the message "Processing failed". From then on i assume it is a custom ROM that the sellers had installed previously (or not? i don't know). The phone was also not rooted as i checked with several apps from the play store.
So i wanted to restore a stock ROM 4.0.4 to the device using Odin but i keep getting an error message of "unsupport dev_type" whenever i wanted to flash it. So i thought i need a root access to the device to flash it (not sure). I downloaded a CF root 6.3 and went on flashing it (USB Debug was turned on) but it failed and when i reboot the phone im stuck with the error message.
Now, somehow i dont know how, i managed to get out of this brick and went back to my default OS, but since i'm an idiot i tried to root it again and im stuck on this message again and can't get back to being unbrick.
So can you guys help me:
1. unbrick the phone from this state?
2. Flash a stock ROM.
Device: Galaxy S3 International - I9300

Hi there! could you link me up to guides you're talking about? I have been just looking for guides for the past days.
Also, I managed to get the phone back out of the "encountered problem" message thing, but again i dont know how, i just waited it out and keep restarting the phone.

Stickys how to helps videos all the other guides .
First you need to find if this is a fake or a clone not I9300 .
Download mode and recovery mode check .
What does it say under the battery .

Okay, I will read the stickies threads.
If you mean by under the battery is the sticker with the model numbers and things:
Model: GT-I9300
FCC ID: A3LGTI9300A
SSN= -I9300GSMH
Do you want me to post my IMEI and S/N number as well?
Btw i checked my IMEI at IMEI.info and it shows up as a galaxy s3 so i guess its not a clone?
Two things i found interesting, it says in IMEI.info as a 32GB model while the one i have is 16GB model. Also, on the box it says Marble White :laugh:
I'm guessing its like a refurbished version or something.
Do you want me to post my IMEI and S/N number as well?
Never unless you want it stolen .

I checked the guide and on my Kies it shows "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via KIES" and in the Tools dropdown menu, I only see "Emergency Firmware Recovery" and "Firmware Upgrade Settings" as well as "Install Driver"
You can try flashing stock from here via Odin.

Do you know whether I could flash stock with different regions ROM? Since i could not find my region ones from that post.
Edit: Also i downloaded a stock ROM before but before it starts flashing, Odin crashed in my windows 8 machine, and in my windows 7 machine i get "Unsupport dev_type".
you can also google the latest rom for your country.

Oh, do you know whether there is like an online checker for serial number from samsung or something? just to make sure whether it is or it isnt? I was searching for one like Apple's warranty coverage thing, but couldnt find similar thing for samsung.
Alright, I've found more weird info.
I know it says GT-I9300 on the back of the phone behind the battery and on the settings page on the OS it self. But when i connect it to Kies, it shows up as a SGH-I747M, which i belive is the North American Model.
Then I download some spec identifying software to find that i have a dual core processor and 2Gb of ram, instead of the Quad core processor and 1Gb of ram (GT-I9300).
Would that explain the "unsupport dev_type"?
EDIT: On Android System Info app i just downloaded, under "Buildinfos-> Fingerprint" I identified it as I747MMVLALE8 model, but under "Model" it says GT-I9300, is this normal?? I want to get to the bottom of this.
EDIT: Alright, i've managed to gain Root Access by using CF root for the version SGH-I747M. So its confirmed that its not the international version, but the North America verison.
All reads as something wrong .
One a fake
Two a phone flashed with wrong firmware and damaged or just wrong firmware .
Suggest you flash correct stock for SGH-I747M via sticky top of the page .
Or return the phone to the vendor .

Hah, the last thing I wanna do is to talk to the seller, cuz they are very non understanding here in China.
If I flash the stock rom for SGH-1747M, would it be SIM locked? Because it is a Canadian version, don't know which one since there are 3with the same model.

Did you end up flashing the North American rom? If so, did it work for you? I'm curious to find out, because I'm in the exact same situation right now...
do this, BEFORE CONNECTING PHONE TO PC start kies go to upgrade and initialisation. enter your phone model number and serial number. put phone in download mode, vol down +home+power NOW CONNECT PHONE TO PC. this should force kies to upgrade your firmware even if it previously said it was not supported.good luck.

Your phone is not Genuine is a clone because that imei is registred in database like Galaxy Grand Max G720AX.
That's probably why you cant flash firmware for Original phone!

352564076980787
Firts imei 357557/06/483373/1 which you have post is not the same like you said :
This imei is Right 352564/07/6980787
But your S/N S/N:R58G30EA7PA someone has marked as stolen or is wrong S/N.
But the thinks is that probably or your back glass is replaced or mainbord or your imei someone changed ...
Firmware for second imei is this one :
https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=00BF4040616411E7963AFA163EE8F90B
Make sure your batterry is more than 70 % and use Latest Version of odin .

thanks for your replies i will try that rom maybe its going to work
now im stuck at cm.bin
Solved
i fixed my s6 edge sm-g925f and im sure this method will work for any device> The only problem is that you're not flashing the latest firmware, do you? yeah maybe you do but not the latest one what i mean then? let me tell you.. even if your previous firmware was example/ android 7.0 and installing 7.0 will fail why? answer: you need to go to sammobile [for example if your device is Samsung becasue sammobile is the best for samsung firmwares just make sure to download the firmware from there if your device is samsung } and check the date of firmware like the latest firmware location doesnt matter just downoad the latest one, you know what i mean right? for example you need android 7.0 you dont just have to download any 7.0 firmware, thats wrong you have to check the date of firmware and download the latest 7.0 firmware, thats it and i hope you fix your device asap cuz i know the feeling thanks for reading this and good luck !
2 months Back: My brother in the name of rooting and making my galaxy tab s3 better he bricked the tab. I wasn't sure which firmware he was on and the ODIN Singapore firmware was not accepting so I used the latest firmware from the UK and restored my tab.
Present: I suddenly wanted to check the IMEI out of the blue. When I checked I couldn't find the IMEI in the phone settings so I installed my phone info app from playstore to see if it is picking up IMEI. To my surprise, I can't find IMEI there too. How to restore original IMEI?
Tab model is SM-T820.
If I were to leave it out just like this would there be any issue?
Would love to hear a solution.
