hi there
I received official 4.3 update. frankly i didnt like it just like the jeally bean. call me crazy but i really liked the ICS too much and it was more than i need. i usually downgrade from jellaybean to ICS without any problems. its just last night when i tried to do that from the 4.3 i lost my Imei and it leads to no network thing / lost signal !! i was trying to use my stock room ( latest ICS update ) which is I9300XXBLH1_I9300OJVBLH1_XSG but now after flashing this as i mentioned i cant do calls.
Is there is any way to fix this? i heard that i have to flash the modem and thats all. please help am currently on 4.3 .
thank you soo much guys.

Hello all,
I live in The Netherlands and I had bought the Samsung Galaxy SIII from a telephone provider in the Netherlands.
I had an official ROM for the Samsung Galaxy SIII and everything worked ok.
It was working on Android 4.1.2. and I wanted to flash it to Android 4.3. with Odin. It was the first time I ever flashed something in my life so I was very happy that it seems to turn out well.
But I discovered that I have a big problem on my hands know because my IMEI is completly gone, my phone number has become unknown and my network is gone too!
I still can use WI-FI on my phone but that's it!
Does anyone has any idea how this can be solved?
I am aware that there are simulair posts here with this subject but it didn't help me so for that reason I desided to post a new one for this issue.
Thanks in advance!

But nothing works. Have someone a solution for me?
Thanks for your help. Cross
You'll have better luck asking in that question in the forum for the international version. This one is for the Verizon I535.

Hi Friends
I am having a serious problem on my s3. It is showing a Sign of Network (Network Bars) at the top side of the screen but still showing Emergency Call Only. I have tried flashing Different Custom Roms and Modem but it is still having the same problem. Pls help me with suggestions to fix the problem. My Country's Firmware Is 19300XXEMF6 19300JVEMF1 ECT but terafile has deleted the file as hosted by Sammobile. . I will be so Glad if my phone can come back to life.
Thanks so muchThanks
My suggestion is don't post duplicate threads, search and read before you ask a question asked many hundreds of times already.
There is a specific thread in the sticky posts, over in general forum - efs 'know this stuff'.

The phone was received from service where it got repaired for lost imei. It had android 4.1.1 but I wanted to update to newer 4.3. With my recent experience I knew I had to make a backup of /efs before doing anything so i made a backup of /efs with the working 4.1.1. Then I updated to 4.3 and the imei got fked. It was an official rom. I rooted the phone to restore the efs backups i had (which i made with 2 programs: the one thats just a command prompt and efs pro). The command prompt program couldnt restore the imei and made it 0049. EFS pro could restore it and then I had a working 4.3 with valid imei still no network. I read that 4.3 has this efs v2 things so I decided to go back to 4.1.2. Going through the same stuff with the rooting and restoring the efs I still had a valid imei and sn but it said only emergency calls (e.g no network). Now im running android i9300XXDLID 4.1.1 and im at the same stage can someone please tell me what to do? I have not installed ariza patch and whenever I try to install some modem the imei gets messed and I have to restore it with efs pro. The phone is the samsung galaxy S3 i9300. It's out of warranty so I dont care about binary counts just need to make it work like a phone again as it cant call receive calls or send messages at it's current state.

I have understood everything and checked out all the other threads but the other threads have not been directly answered. I was confused and thats why I decided to ask for myself becouse after trying everything I cant get it to work.
Mod Edit
The idea is to post in those other threads and seek a reply there .
This avoids a clutter of similar threads in the forum

Hi everyone!
I need your help.
When I flash archidroid (4.4.2) then I lose my IMEI number. Then I restore efs with efs manager or Kctool and I get the IMEI back with proper serial number.
However, I cannot properly connect to phone network. It connects for a second or two but then the connection drops. After a minute it connects again and drops again. I played with 2g/3g options but it did not help.
I can flash stock 4,3 rom back and everything works fine. I just would like to upgrade to archidroid or other Kitkat rom.
What should I do?
Thanks for the help.
