At first try to install stock ROM from Sammobile but bear in mind which version of Android do you want. You can flash 4.2 or you can install newest 4.4 (if you want close encounter with KNOX).

Firstly thanks to trul3 for your help .
Ok problem fixed after i downloaded android 4.4.2 from sammobile and installed it with odin 3.07 but it did not boot into the system whilst it had kitkat installed , it kept on having a boot loop on the samsung logo so i decided to downgrade it to stock rom 4.2.2 and it worked the image size problem was fixed but now there is no signal , no bluetooth , no wifi , no ime , no sound also doesnt record either video or audio and it says set warant bit kernel on startup .
Anyone please help me solve this new problem now.

And that's why I warned about to be sure what version of Android you want - from 4.4 there is NOT way back to 4.2 without problems... KitKat have new version of bootloader and is NOT downgradable... at least without serious problems, soft brick included. Now I do not know what to do - imao you can try to download (once more) stock ROM 4.4 and to try flash it using Odin... but lack of IMEI is sign of possible massive damage of internal partition configuration. It is important to know which wersion of Android did you have BEFORE installing custom ROM first time, that means what was your LAST stock ROM?
There is another possibility - you can try to install MegaFire ROM from @meglomanic14 which is in fact stock 4.2 rom but greately improved. This can be safely installed even on 4.4 rom's. The link to thread you can find in my sig. But bear in mind, so it is rom for I9205 so if you greatly value FMRadio in your phone, you shout forget about it - I9205 is LTE version vithout FM Radio. There is either 4.4 version of megalomanic14 rom - MegaKat, but it required special manner of instalation.

ok i wanna try to install megafire , the radio is not important to me i can do without it can you tell me how i can go about it.

solved problem
After trying so many different methods to fix my phone i finally got a way to fix the problem and now i will give the solution in order for someone who has the same problem to be able to fix it .
At first i tried updating my galaxy mega i9200 to 4.4 kitkat using O.T.A but after installation the phone started to have a boot loop so i decided to root the device which ended up causing my warrant to become void now my phone starts up with a message written in yellow written set warrant bit kernel , i tried to downgrade it back to its stock rom 4.2.2 but upon installation using odin 3.0.7 i installed the wrong country firmware which resulted in my device having errors written image size too large ....... after this i tried installing megakat 22v but still it didn't work it only started to freeze on the Samsung logo . I later on used Samsung kies to help me find the country which my device firmware was made from , the steps are as follows on Samsung kies go to tool/firmware upgrade and initialization/model (type GT-I9200)/serial number (type -------)/..
After i got my original firmware which was Thailand *(THL) i tried to install with odin 3.0.7 but it failed so kept on trying different firmwares until the one from Egypt worked but when it booted there was no sound , no Bluetooth , couldn't recording sound or video no WiFi and ime was null/null so i decided to download kitkat from the firmware manufacturer Thailand (THL) from androidxda but this time instead of installing the kitkat i opened the I9200XXUCNC2_I9200OLBCNC1_I9200XXUCNC2_HOME.tar .md5 file with 7zip and extracted a file called NON-HLOS.bin its 49.5mb in size this is a file that contains the modems of the phone and other files required for sound and ime , so i put my phone in download mode and opened odin 3.0.9 . I loaded the NON-HLOS.bin file into odin through CP and i hit start after the install the phone was perfect everything worked fine the ime is restored and all is well .
Thank you all who had suggestions on how i could fix this problem .:victory:

Gosh you did all this ridiculous nonsense when you could've fixed your bootloop on your initial 4.4 install by just booting into stock recovery and doing a factory reset.

the factory reset did not work i tried it whilst i had restored the phone to custom rom , it still had the same problem thats why i used that "ridiculous method " .

Man plzz i need the link for the kitkat

You would be best off just reflashing stock ROM in Odin

[Q] NOOB here :) Wi-Fi not functioning on custom ROMs

Hey there,
I have a factory unlocked Samsung Galaxy SIII, international, GT-I9300, freshly rooted and using CWM-based recovery v5.5.0.4::CF - v1.5.
Today I've flashed 2 custom ROMs, one after the other, by following some guides that I've found (cannot post yet links):
1. Android 4.3 via SuperNexus: URL hidden
and after the SuperNexus this one:
2. Android 4.3 via ParanoidAndroid 3.97 ROM: URL hidden
Managed to flash these two successfully, but with both of them I've faced the same problem during initial device setup: could not connect to my Wi-Fi network. Wi-Fi signal was strange too: strong, then suddenly weak. Could not authenticate and connect. :crying:
So, fortunately, made a backup before these two ROM flashes, so I guess I'm back with my stock Samsung TouchWizzy ROM (Android 4.1.2). That I hate. I want something bloatware free, stock-android feel, something like my Nexus 7 tablet.
Can you suggest me a "Wi-Fi capable" stock-like Android 4.3 custom ROM or am I missing something? Maybe a Radio flash (have no idea what's that) but maybe that what I was missing? And if I do that somehow, is that reversible? Never done it before.
Thank you in advance for any help and suggestion! :good:
love,
sz
Im using CM 10.2 (4.3)and i dot have any problem whith wifi. I used before PacMan Rom and the same, no problem. Just try a full wipe. And try it again.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium HD app
This happened to me once with JB 4.1.2 i couldnt figure out what was the problem and in the end it turned out that i was putting the password for WiFi wrong. Just put the pass right and i got connected. Just sharing my experience.

(1) did you do a full wipe including manual wipes of /system? If not do so and try again (mega wipe can be of help here)
(2) if this doesn't work, did you play around with custom kernels? (wifi is connected to the kernel and less to the baseband/modem used)
I am running SlimBean 4.3 (beta5) without any WiFi issues, also all other roms before that, no issue.
This must be a modem issue as android 4.3 does not change the modem from the previous samsung rom.
try upgrading to latest samsung 4.1.2 and then install android 4.3.
install 4.3 after doing a mega wipe.
remember to backup everything.
and dont forget to take an efs backup as many ppl are facing major problems after upgrading to latest samsung roms.
Guys, Thank you all, trying to reply to everyone:

1. Thanks, will do a mega-wipe next time, although with CWM did these in the following order: Wipe data/Factory reset, Wipe Cache Partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache several times. Also, with MegaWipe wiping Preload partitions does what exactly? Just don't want to brick my phone/do something irreversible, as I try to understand everything I do to it
2. No, did not played around with custom kernels. Do not know how to change/flash them. Same as flashing a custom rom? Newbie here :laugh:

(1) The best would be to read the mega wipe thread. I use it all the time, it will delete ANYTHING excep the external SD card (also not EFS etc, hence dont worry). Therefore you need a flashable rom on the external sd or via Odin later on. But basically your phone won't start after a mega wipe, just download & recovery will work.
Your wipes are correct I think, whereas /system is missing wich is needed, at least for SlimBean (4.3).
(2) The best would be to read the guides & kernel thread's how-to's first. It is basically the same as flashing a rom, yes.

Well if u r a newbie. Read all the guides available here. Dont proceed further without doing that. You will learn how to backup efs and all.
U can install any latest custom samsung rom. Again.. Read the guides/warnings before proceeding.
Misleading title .
#There have been a number of identical posts and some have fixed by copying older WiFi files over . But you need to search and read and no i don't know where they are . .
Its not a custom rom problem but a non Samsung custom rom problem on 4.3 .

Yes, reading the guides, so first of all decided to backup my EFS (coz that sounds reassuring before doing more ROM flashes) with EFS Professional from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546
Installed BusyBox on my phone, and I'm stuck because of a missing applet: http://cl.ly/image/1a1J1A0I3V0H.
I think I'm going deeper than what I can handle
BTW, Enea307, tried CM 10.2 (4.3) this morming, and same wi-fi problem. So it's most likely not a custom rom issue, as most of you suggested.
The only logical; way to rule out firmware is by wiping the phone and flashing stock rom .

Not installed KIES yet, as I read that that's a big brother or something to Odin, and that his little brother is much better at flashing. Should I give KIES a go? Anyways, trying to redownload the firmware.
No Kies ?? Unless you installed Samsung USB drivers that's where your problem is .

I had installed Samsung Drivers beforehand, before even rooting / doing anything. Did not had KIES until now.
Still cannot flash to stock firmware with Odin.

Some roms, mostly PA (paranoid android) just happen to have wifi probs.
I used to have pacman rom earlier and as it was a combination of cyanogen mod, paranoid android, and AOSP roms. It had a part of all three in it, so the wifi bug persisted. Went back to stock rom later.
Usually stock roms are the best and most stable for your phone, No matter how much the hype is, features are, or however big Nd bold letters STABLE is written in. Just delete the bloatware given by samsung to get ur phone clean and ram light. You can delete system apps by using titanium backup.
Happy to help

Thing is, that I am rooted, done with Odin, by following this guide: http://www.androidrooting.com/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s3-gt-i9300-or-gt-i9300t-cwm-recovery/
So I have CWM, and with I tried Android 4.3 via SuperNexus, Android 4.3 via ParanoidAndroid 3.97 ROM, then, lastly CM 10.2 (4.3). With none of them did I managed to get the Wifi going.
Here is my current "About device": https://www.dropbox.com/sc/8hp04dn5o5flytd/LpoJCgZ7sK
Is this stock samsung firmware? Coz I can't tell. It seems stock, but maybe it changed with the rooting procedure.
So I repeat, only with this setup/build does the wifi work. With no other custom rom does...
I did backup and recovery to my current working wifi rom. That's how I recovered after trying these custom roms mentioned before.
Guys, help me pls, with at least flashing to the stock samsung rom with Odin or Kies (Odin failed, scroll up see my recent posts with screenshots)
Note that on my last try, Odin just froze yet again: http://cl.ly/image/0o0o0k2L3J3m
If not with Odin, then how do I restore it to stock samsung rom with KIES?
thx!
You dont do it with kies. Kies is such bull**** software. Dont use it at all. You wanna backup, use TI(titanium backup) or nandroid backup. Take a system backup from CWM. As you said in your post, u want to go back to stock, dl the stock rom, do the same procedure u did to root your phone via odin (pda, etc etc), just this time instead of the root zip file, just put the stock rom zip file.
It should take some time, and aftet its done, your phone will be as good as new. To restore the backup via TI, dont select system apps. Only the apps which are in green font or downloaded apps. Other wise u will have force closes.
Also, when u flash the stock rom via odin from your pc, you will not have root. Just a note.
You can simply remove bloatware like live wallpapers, samsung "never gonna use" features like Svoice via TI by just uninstalling them, but note, if fiddling with system apps, them make sure u take a backup.
I have written it all in simple language so that you understand every essential part and have fun with your rooted phone.
Happy to help
As always last resort restore original firmware with Kies and probably a better method than some others posted.

looks like you are on a stock ROM. if you want you may try to upgrade:

your problem has nothing to do with wiping / factory resetting etc - it will not help: flash is not officially supported by adobe for android.
you have to use this method:

Depends on what you have tried more details/list of what you have tried "all fix" doesn't really help. If not you will get lots of replies from people suggesting things you have already done.
There is what i did:
-Try alot of patched modem
-flash 4.3 stock backup efs then restore in 4.4.2
-tried different custom rom
-changed csc to be compitable with my country BTW i live in middle east
And another thing i select my network manually

If you are getting network/calls in 4.3 without any problems then your efs and modem are correct and have been upgraded to efs v2 unless you are on a patched modem and this is what is making your 4.3 rom work . If you are getting partial calls/internet in 4.4.2 but then have to reboot then something else is going on.Are you sure your apn settings are correct for you region? If they are then I am at a loss to what's going on,the patched modems and kernels that are in the forum are for 4.3 roms only not 4.4 so are you on a patched modem and kernel at the moment?maybe that's interfering with 4.4.
Try another sim card.
Thx for help still happening to me
If this error is happening on totally stock 4.3, before you install or restore any settings or apps, but works normally sometimes then it's probably a hardware failure.
Now im using back to noot v5 it seem the problem is fixed i donno

Emergeny calls Out of service area

Hello everyone,
First of all i want to thank you for all this guides that i was trying to use here
So here's my story.
I got Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 with bootloop issue so i decide to fix this by myself.
I was trying to install fimware using KIES but i doesn't fix my issue.
Then i was trying to search for right rom on several websites.
The right one and only working one was 4.0.4 with orange brand logo.
So i was excited that its finally working
Then i realize that my imei is null and my sim card is not working.
So i was trying to restore EFS using several tools and methods.
Finally i got it default IMEI 0049 but it was still not working.
My phone is not qualcomm based model so i cannot use nv item reader writer as it's required to edit IMEI
Even after applying phonutil patch my device is not being recognize as Qualcomm one.(because it's not)
So i was still looking for another way to change my imei manually as i have my original one on the box and under battery.
Finally I realized that i cannot make even Emergency calls it comes with message Out of service area.
So i was trying to apply few modem and radio updates to my phone but none of them are helping.
Anyone have similiar issue?
I have another Galaxy S3 that is working can i copy imei or whole system to my not working phone?
I know that after that i cannot use other device, but thats ok if its possible.

I tried everything from this guide.
Regarding patch:
4.0.4-I9300BVALE4 firmware is the only one working on my Samsung
Patched modem and kernel that i found and try it are XXUGMK6.
Maybe they are different one or dedicated to my firmware

The reason you can't make calls is because at some point your phone software was on 4.3 this means your efs as changed to efs v2. Now because your current firmware is at 4.0.4 then your efs can't read this because 4.0.4 is efs v1. So you need to get a 4.3 stock rom onto your phone (I know you said only 4.0.4 works) but what are you using install firmware are you using Odin? If so what errors are you getting installing with Odin.
The patched modems and kernels are for 4.3 so they won't work on 4.0.4 or any other apart from 4.3
I was trying so many of them but its always ends with samsung logo loop it doesn' matter if i'm
do things like wipe cache, factory settings etc everytime its not working.
Even on 4.0.4 only this one rom is working.

Ok a couple of things you could try (if you haven't already) I presume you have a custom recovery? Try flashing a custom stock 4.3 with recovery I suggest this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/rom-sammys-stock-deodexed-rooted-t2585670 << This is as close to stock as possible but can be flashed with a custom recovery like Cwm,PhilZ,Twrp etc. You will also need to flash a 4.3 modem for this which is included in the thread. If the modem in the thread does not give you a signal (presuming the rom boots ) then keep the same custom rom but flash a patched modem and kernel on top with your custom recovery.
Don't forget to factory reset after flashing!
If none of that works you can always try the rescue firmware here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6 << obviously flash the 4.3 one. Hope that helps
Thank you very much for your help i will try this and let know here if it's working

So it's me again.
I have good news and bad news.
So i was able to install both of firmware with success.
After applying patched modem everything was still working.
But when im calling 112 for example im still having "out of service area" and my imei is still 004999...
So issue is still exist.
I can discover any network when i choose network its even says"registred on network" but then if im trying to choose some number im having error message that im not registred or if emergency call "out of service area".
Any ideas what still can i try ?

No Cellular on Custom ROM

I had my s2 hard bricked and now i got a new motherboard for it, the thing is that on all stock roms (2.3 and 4.1.2) the phone works perfectly but all the custom roms 4.4 5.0 6.0 the cellular does not work, it gives me no service, tried flashing modem from cwm but no change.
i also tried different recoveries etc but custom rom no service
sometimes in custom rom imei used to be blank but it comes back after reboot, in stock no issues at all
any idea what im doing wrong or is there something up with the new board?
thanks,
Update
I was searching and I read somewhere that installing NeatROM by Sale will help, i downloaded and installed it, the good news is that cellular works and i have full 3G access.
Question: How to proceed further?
i could experiment but the thing is that if i flash a non-working rom (no cellular), i will have to flash stock from odin and start all over again
any ideas?
Update 2
i tried NeatROM and it worked perfectly, then i tried installing slimLP and boom, no service again, this time,my IMEI was blank too, so now i'm flashing stockrom again.
any idea anyone please?
