I am a new member, I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 , I buy this device in Argentina, ( Movistar) with the version 4.0.4. I have signal with Movistar, and working good. One day a update to the new version 4.1. and root and install busybox , and galaxy unlock, to use other Sim ( CLARO) and working good. with out problems. But last week i upgrade to the last version 4.1.2 and i lost my unlock, soo i do it again, ( root busybox galaxyunlock,) but with didnt works. Only works with Movistar. But not With (CLARO)
I change the firmware a lot times, i use the 4.2.2 and the 4.3 ,the official and not official rooms, and use the UFN and CTI last firmwares, and download the oldest 4.0.4, but didnt works.
I use the wipe and restar tools, but didnt works. i dont way i install ClockworkMod 6.0.4.4 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2200501 ) and i start with the problems.
I can use my device with any company,
I think the EFS are broken, soo i try to recovery my backup files, deleting the efs folder and restar the device, i use the program EFS_Pro_1.8.11_Release , but i can recovery my IMEI,
if i dial *#06# is NULL or 0049**

You post rambles to much to understand your actual problem .
What is your actual problem now ??
If EFS or IMEI read the sticky first .

Hi Everyone,
I know there are a few thread around with the same purpose, but nothing helped me. I even did ping few members who claimed to have known the problem, to my bad, they are busy to reply me. So i thought i would start a new thread explaining my problem.
I got a new Galaxy GT I9300 Before 3months in Singapore, The shop is famous for selling smuggled phones, so i am not sure to which country mine belongs to. There was no network initially, so the shopkeeper offered his help, He gave the mobile to a nearby service centre and got it ready,
I am not sure what he did, but d phone had CWM and Super User. I already own a Galaxy S2 and i have done a lot of flashing Custom MOD's, So i wanted my Galaxy S3 to be original for a while. So i tried to restore by flashing a official firmware, To my surprise the phone didnt have any network in it after the ODIN flash. I tried an INDIAN firmware, then Singapore.
I tried CWM (which i am not a pro) but couldn get back the network. I went back to the service centre and he told some files are corrupted since i flashed the phone with official firmware.
He again flashed it, now the network works, voila ! I couldn figure out and he wouldn tel me. ****ing $40 !!! The phone had CWM and SuperUser installed in it again.
The phone had the following information after wat ever he did.
IMEI - 3531*********99 it is same in d board and in the phone information.
MODEL NUMBER - GTI9300
ANDROID VERSION - 4.0.4
BASEBAND VERSION - I9300DXLE9
KERNEL VERSION - 3.0.15-611327-USER SE [email protected] -71 #1SMP PREEMPT TUE MAY 22 21:54:17KST 2012
BUILD NUMBER - IMM76D.I9300XXALEF
NETWORK - SINGTEL
SERVICE STATE - IN SERVICE
MOBILE NETWORK STATE - DISCONNECTED
MY PHONE NUMBER - UNKNOWN
ERI VERSION - N/A
IMEI SV - 01
SERIAL NUMBER - 000000000000
DEVICE STATUS - MODIFIED
Can anyone please infer on what the service guy had done. so that i can update my phone to JB. I am sick and bored of the same firmware for over 4 months and i wanna change it. But i dont want to get struck in the same issue. Please help and advance thanks !
I am afraid you had bad luck
1. You should NEVER pay for stuff that does not work (and is not with original firmware).
2. You should also read this - it is almost certainly the same story (in your case SN 00000000 should also give a strong clue things are not what they should):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34226179
3. Since whoever f***ed those things the first time on your phone did not make an efs image-backup you can never return to factory state!
4. You are basically stuck with a phone where you will have to apply a patched modem after each ROM upgrade.
when you say patched modem what do you mean.?
Patched modem ???
When u say patched modem, can u explain tat ? Is it possible to create one by ourself ?

A patched modem apparently is modem code that does not check all the stuff in the efs partition (for instance when SN is 00..00) - I am currently using the one posted by ariza somewhere around. Patching one might be quite complex and for the moment I did not have the time to research that. The only problem that I see is that certain providers are said to be using very unusual modem code (since they have unusual settings in their own network) - and in that case you need to use a patched version of that specific modem version - but so far I have not seen that happening in a very repeatable way in posts from european networks.
The other problem is that when you install any full ROM (for instance 4.1.2) that will overwrite your modem - so you will have to re-install the old patched modem (so far ariza_v04.zip seems to work OK with 4.1.2 on my operator's network).
Serial no 000000...
Thousands of Thanks man, I have been facing the same problem from last few days after flashing cwm6 and UltraRom. hi can you please suggest me an modem for Samsung Galaxy s3 I9300 Indian version.

Hi guys. I need some helps. I'm from Malaysia and the android that i used before is android 4.1.2 I9300XXEMF6 (original firmware). Then ive upgraded it into android 4.3 (I9300XXUGMJ9) for UK region. Even though it is an official samsung firmware, i found out it is unstable. I flash it back to android 4.1.2 (Malaysia original firmware) but something happen. The "network have not registered" problem. I then found the solution by rooting it and install the modem. But it act funnily as the android seems unstable from before. I flash it over and over again hoping that reverting back to 4.1.2 will be the same as before but i ended up using 4.2 as the 4.1.2 have network problem. I already search the forum and find many solutions but none provide the files that i need. I also have tried KIES method by recovery and initializing method but it resulted the same. "Network has not registered. The only solution is to root it and i would really like to NOT to root my phone.
My question is, can someone provide me with necessary files such as the pit files, phone (modem) and the CSC files that specifically for Malaysia regions? I already have the firmware file. Please guys. The instability of 4.3 is driving me crazy.
BTW im using i9300.
Stop.
You are going to brick your phone if you flash things without understanding them.
Go to general forum and read the sticky post, especially efs 'know this stuff'.
Flashing a pit file WILL brick your phone.
When you flashed 4.3 you upgraded to efs v2, there is no way back. You can only use EMGx and later modems now, find a later modem that will work in your country, either with 4.1 or 4.3.
Edit. Backup your efs, perform a factory reset, flash your 4.1 country rom then an EMG modem.
hey man, thanks. One question, where can i find this emg modem?

What you`ll need is a new version of 4.1.2 with a mg4 baseband or latest, the 4.3 rom changed your efs folder format. If you want to stick with your 4.1.2 go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43946365&postcount=15 and flash that emergency.zip (mg4 baseband), it should do the job.
Hi guys. Already solved the network problem by installing the Modem DDEMG2 files via odin. Thanks for your guys helps and advice. For some that thinks that i haven't read many posts, i have read them but cannot grasp the concept. Sorry for the inconvenience. Many thanks.

Hey guys, I was recently on a custom Rom, which i liked but had so many bugs
I heard good things about the newest 4.3 update, the ones with all the bug fixes so im trying to go back to it
I flashed a really old 4.0.4 version, which for some reason was in dutch? and it had taken away my Imei and luss i couldnt change the CSC within the menu
Ive tried countless other firmwares and ran into nothing but trouble, I tried the leaked 4.3 firmware which was a Irish vodafone version and i couldnt do anything with that
Sam mobile is pretty much useless with the new host, can someone please give me a link which has the right firmware ( Unlock Galaxy S3 gti9300 ) normally i flash BTU. So yeah, The right firmware, where I can update to the latest 4.3, quick download speed and a firmware which has everything included ( I.E IMEI, Signal Etc )
Many thanks, Jack
You'll need to understand the basics if you are going to repair what you've already done to your phone.
Flashing yet another rom won't fix it, if the 4.3 firmware didn't.
You can't repair the imei, unless you have a backup of the efs folder. Instead you'll need a repair centre.
Start with reading the sticky threads in general forum, in particular efs 'know this stuff'.

First flash any modem supporting efs v2 starting from xxugmg4 or above... and then flash any 4.3 ROM.... So just look for a modem which supports efs v2 accirding to your region...and you didn't searched enough I guess cause this issue has been covered almost 100 times maybe more...

Read this thread: [REF] IMEI / EFS - Know this stuff (i9300) - including "no network"
If you don't have an EFS backup, and you already tried to odin stock 4.3, then you should take it to a phone repair shop.
You already got the correct answer in the last thread you started, don't start duplicates.
