[REQ] help me IMEI problem in s3 LTE - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hello guys and devs
My friend has a s3 GT-I9305 LTE qualcomm base phone.
I don't know what he has done with its phone but the IMEI and baseband version says unknown.
I have tried tools like efs professional pro , nv data backup restore, qualcomm software but none of that worked for me.
the phone is rooted and when I check into efs folder there is nothing except 1 file called ms_code something.
There is no backup of old efs nor any of the nv named file is there in the efs folder.
I also tried to flash diffrent modem, updated the phone to 4.4.4 KK official stock but none of this worked.
now I am downloading official stock of 4.3 JB from sammobile[.]com.
Can anyone please help me by providing GT-I9305 nv data files so that can backup by editing the file by hex editor.
and yaa one think I forget to say that when I dail *#1234# in that phone it says phone and CSC only there is no CP information available. when I dail *#9090# for service menu, its totally blank and no option is available to choose.
I need help from you guys. please help me I need your all help urgently. .... :crying:

Have you teied flashing param.tar?

Hi itamarsea, have you tried checking settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks/access point names
check if your settings are stored for 3 network.
Or check settings/ about phone/ status/ IMEI
check that IMEI number is still the same.
re setting
imei-unknown
network-unknown
imei sv-unknown
phone no-unknown
Type
*#06*
in dialer and see what number comes up.
Also what firmware are you on, jv1?
Type in *#1234# for firmware info.
It could just be a corrupt install. Iv flashed 2.3 on my sgs with odin about 5 times and tried about 3 2.3 roms and iv had no problems (Other than some buggy memory handling)
pda xwjn1
phone unknown
csc unknown
2.3 is beta A greek word for unfinished .
Factory reset that fails
Flash different rom via Odin .
You started at step two of flashing i presume and failed to backup your efs folder .
jje
Same thing on my phone, I flashed one JPM firmware with odin and nothing, tried with gingerbread and nothing... any info would help. thnx in advanced
Hi,
I have the same issue: NO SIM CARD!
My phone is locked and today I wanted to try insert another sim card, just to see if the message: "Insert the unlock code..." appears. After this, I noticed it's not working, so I put back the original sim card and realized that I have no network and got this notification message: NO SIM CARD.
I checked the IMEI code and it's the same, any hints, tips?
Is there some kind of problem with my sim?
If anybody can help me, I'd be more than grateful.
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: I9000XXJPY
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 (Voodoo stable 5.4.1)
Build number: Darky's v9.3.XWJS5
As a few people mentioned before it's a beta rom so it contains bugs. This may be one of them. If your imei isn't a lot of 0 you probably won't have problem after they fix this bug
Sent from my GT-I5700 using XDA Premium App
IMEI appears as unknown even after flashing darkys rom os a stock rom :S
I don't know how the Galaxy S stoores the imei, but my spica uses the efs partition for it, and this partition doesn't change when you reflash a rom (even if you used odin).
Sent from my GT-I5700 using XDA Premium App
EFS file may change after flashing a rom enough posts on here about it .
Rule one of flashing is to backup your efs folder .
Copy backed up efs to phone to fix
Probable fix as you have flashed custom roms is to use Odin and flash stock rom that may fix your efs .

Stock rom doesn't fix the efs. There is a guy at samdroid.net who can restore Spica's imei, maybe you should ask him if he is able to do it with your phone. Check out this url: http://forum.samdroid.net/f28/complete-imei-restore-how-1817/
Sorry, I found that I9000 is not supported.
theres a post about imei and pcode prblm check the forum,if u ave a backup of efs than ur lucky.usually if u screwed ur imei thts prblm m8.flash ur stock rom,get ur phone rooted,,there r good free apps for tht.download astro or root exp or lynda file manger.u can c a folder efs check tht out first.if u ave a backup of efs u can restore.for doubt pm.....cheeerz

Thats mostly a Samsung issue, on HTC`s and most other phones EFS data is on a separate non-removable partition. There is usaualy no need to backup this partition.

You will have to get it back first. You may have to flash a stock RUU and that may help.

HTC doesn't have a EFS partition. You must be coming from a Samsung device. No? That's why you asking that.

Tried this few weeks ago, but no success.
I don´t have the unit in my possession anymore.
But tried all tips and tricks posted around the net. Maybe only with Z3X box, or at Samsung.

How it know?
Problem not basband?
Hey guys,
I've got a real noob issue with mine.
It came to me with null imei, and using the tools i have i was fairly sure i knew how to fix it and what was required, except the phone wouldnt take any of the box flashes i was trying to flash to it. It wouldnt take the imei_baseband fix at all. It just kept failing.
So, instead of trying 1 file md5 flash i thought i would try a FULL flash. However, apart from the CSC file i didnt know what order the files went in, so, instead of waiting and researching it, i just guessed. As you guessed it, the phone crapped out, and now i get the recovery error and it will only go to download mode.
These are the names of the files i got:
AP_I9305XXUEMKC_2051278_REV00_user_low_ship_tar.md5
BL_I9305XXUEMKC_2051278_REV00_user_low_ship_tar.md5 ( <--- i assumed this was boot file and left it alone)
CP_I9305XXUEMK1_REV06_CL1247969.tar.md5
THe other files were a CSC named file which i knew where it want and a pit file, which again i know where that goes, its just them 3 above....where do tehy need to go in Odin??
I'd really apprecaite your guys time on this.
Best Regards

[Q] NO REGISTERING ON THE NETWORK NO SERVICE Galaxy s3 mini I8190n

Hello everyone. I bought a samsung galaxy s3 mini version nfc i8190n when lam bought the phone had a problem with GSM and HSDPA network. Do not want to register with any sim card network in any network. The phone has IMEI and modem good. When searching network manually, your phone finds them when I select a network does not register on the network. The phone came with android 4.1.2 baseband version i8190NXXALL6 Number
i8190NXXALL6 CSC: KOR. Before I get to work I saved the foders "efs" and "modemfs". For five days I struggle with it and we did and at the moment I'm stuck and ask for help.
Here are the steps that I did:
1. I changed csc from "kor" in "btu"
2. I rewrote the software with odin. Same i8190NXXALL6 Stock firmware samsung.
3. I installed CWM Recovery and I Flash all versions of this model,modem.
4. I installed custom ROMs, I returned to stock ROMs
5. I installed the stock recovery with odin and he appeared in DOWNLOAD MODE "custom binary download"=yes 2 times;"System Status"=custom;"current binary"=custom. I used the TriangleAWay and I brought "custom binary download=No. I8190NXXALL6 I reinstalled the stock rom via odin with repartition then full erease on the phone Cahe,Data,etc.and returned to" Custom Binay "= No Current Binay = Official Samsung, System status = Officia.Updates software and firmware from samsung works after many writings kind CWM unofficial ROMs, etc.
6. After each writing ROMs I rooted the phone and replaced the file "modemfs" nv.dat file. I downloaded from the XDA forum several files of other users Nv.dat i8190N this model, we have replaced each other and nothing.
7. I deleted all files in EFS folder and modemfs after deletion had baseband XXXXX. IMEI number has remained untouched.
8. I wrote modem manually via CWM recovery and nothing same problem.
I did have searched all the forum and other forums, I searched on google and do not know what to do. My phone is now rooted in the stock rom, stock kernel, stock recovery. These are details which are:

Yes i know but why would you purposely modify the modems and other stuffs, you should have brought it to your network provider service center or samsung and ask them about it, it could just be an SIM card problem

No. Is not sim problem issues becouse i test with a nother sim card`s of diferent carriers. Wen i put a nother sim card in apn setings are the setings for the carrier sim wat ai put,wen i cheange the sim with a nother carrier in the apn setings are the setings of the carrier sim card wat i m put. So for exemple i have 3 sim card`s of diferent carriers and all the sim`s card have pin security cod and the phone ask me for pin, after insert the pin code with all sim card`s don`t register on the netowork but the apn setings of the carrier automatic are there on the setings,so the phone see the sim card for all carriers, in setings wen a search manualy for the netorks the phone see the netowork wen i select the netowork manualy not register on the network,if i select automatic sey "registering on netowrk" but is not becouse if i want to call i can`t "not registering on network" sorry for my english ((

hmm.. as the last solution - search "gsmhosting efs backup request" on google ( ai not able to paste external links here). You will find the backup efs folder from a working sgs3 mini i8190 phone. Flash it to your phone (first keep a backup of yopur own efs before doing this ... just in case)
all the best !

My phone is bricked at this moment. Partition on the phone are mess up. One guy from the Mobile Phones Center brick the phone and my phone is in this stage righ now :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657862 . Wen i have news and solution i post heare. Good day All.
I got the same problem with my phone, it just stopped registering on networks, tried any sim that was available in my country and nothing worked! If you find any solution please update!
Any updates???
Searched and searched... Had a good rooted stock rom, then tried something new a few days ago. I seem to have messed up the modem/bandband. Some issues as the original post. Re-flashed different roms, stock, rooted, unrooted, custom. Tried various different baseband updates. Everything works except being unable to register to the network. IMEI has not changed or been overwritten.
Any help would be gladly accepted.
i8190n
I have the exact same problem. I'm on Orange (EE). Yesterday morning my phone was registered on the network fine, I was in a poor signal area but still on 3G. Then I roamed across the south west of Britain and noticed my phone has no signal. It just wont register on any network, even EE. If I select automatic, it says it registers but it gets no signal and when I try to make a call. It says not registered on network!
The phone is totally stock. My sim works in another phone. I've done a factory reset but the problem still exists.
Was thinking about flashing the ROM but if others have been there too with no fix then I won't waste my time. I keep thinking EE have pushed something to my phone to block access as I'm out of contract by three months and they want me to upgrade!!

IMEI Baseband Restore / QCN file?

Hey XDA,
I'm hoping that somebody here can help me. I have somehow deleted the IMEI, Baseband and all of that from my phone and I'm unable to get any cellular connection. My wifi and bluetooth still works. I have tried using a generic qcn file to restore the imei but the imei only displayed until I rebooted it, and it didn't restore the network at all. My phone is rooted and setup for diag mode and all of that. I haven't had any success using QPST, I unfortunately do not have a backup and I was wondering if anybody could provide me with a QCN directly from a ZE620KL, WW version preferably. I can edit the IMEI's into the file myself. My phone is rooted using Magisk, currently on Android 8.0
Thanks so much!
