You can also open "Fasterfix" which comes with Darkys.
You have a dropdown menu.
An other easy to use app is "GPS-AIDS"

[Q] Help! Lost network after installing MIUI RC3

Help! Lost network after installing MIUI RC3
I have seen in other threads that other people have experienced the same or similar issues and that it is possible that the IMEI number has changed.
The advice on other threads has been to flash back using EZBase - what should I be flashing back to?
Thanks in advance.

Well.. Double check your imei # first
Go to Settings>About Phone>Status
Scroll down a bit and write down your imei.
Power off the phone, pull the battery and check if your imei matches the number on the label.
Plus what CSC is in that rom does it cover your network did you try entering the network details manually .
jje
IMEI numbers are the same so seems fine, it did pick up signal for about 5 seconds but then stopped - it is T-mobile - UK.
I tried going in to enter it manually but it either comes up with an error or just says searching for ages - am I doing the right thing??

Try re-installing Kies....Kies is like devil! I Hate it !
flash wice ur problem will be solved.!!!
I flashed twice but not solved my problem. I then re-installed Kies after twice-flashing and it solved my problem.
great now delete this thread......
For future reference:
The problem is that your locale was changed from INU (more likely) or INS to something else, in your CSC.
To access the settings to change your CSC, you need your IMEI number.
Get this by using the code : *#06# , in the phone dialer.
It should be 15 digits. Write it down someplace for this next step.
Open the dialer and input : *#272*<enter 15 digit IMEI>*
It should instantly display a menu. If you get an error, make sure the code is correct and that you have taken down your IMEI correctly.
Now choose your locale from the options presented.
For your locale, check this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163

[Q] How do you change the product code to Italy?

Hi!
I want to set the product code to Italy so I can update to Gingerbread.
roncza gave me clear instructions in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086484&page=33 thread --
In the phone app of your tab just enter:
*#272*IMEI number#
Where "IMEI number is your IMEI. You can find our this one under Settings -> About device -> Status -> IMEI.
When you entered the above code you will get a selection with all the product codes and you can shose ITV here for Italy.
Attention: This will reset your device to factory settings and all data will be erased. So, please make a backup first.
After the reboot of the tab you can just connect to Kies and for me it found the update to Gingerbread.
So, no real guarantee but I hope this will help you.​
I tried it and I get a second screen with
Preconfig
Sales Code ..........................XEU............
..
..
..
INSTALL ... CANCEL
If I press INSTALL I get the message " must beTHREE chars "
I cannot input into the box where XEU is written. No keyboard is activated if I press in the box where XEU is written...
So my question is how can I input ITV into the box that has XEU?
Any advice appreciated.
Ofiaich
there is something wrong on as your present firmware does not contain ITV, only XEU is present so you will not be able to change to ITV if the code 272 does not display ITV. The code 272 should present you with all available csc for you to select and tick on a button. You don't input it by keyboard.
I suggest you reflash.
Thanks,
I knew about the drop down list but I was hoping to input ITV via the keypboard.
Samsung's own tablet recovery service in the UK reflashed my tablet recently.
I will just wait, wait, wait, for Samsung's official update.

[Q] Fooling Kies with an IP in a different country

Is there a way to fool Kies to get an update for ICS? I live in Australia and I am getting bloody sick of waiting for official firmware updates when it is release in almost entire rest of the bloody world.
I have had a crack at using Easy-Hide IP and diverting the software that way but it doesn't seem to work.
Anyone have any advice?
The reason that I want to do it this way is so that I don't have to re-install all of my programs.
Cheers,
Grady
generally speaking you can spoof your ip by forcing any pplications that do not support working through proxy servers to operate through a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy and chains
download " proxifier "
If I'm not mistaken the update refer to phone CSC code.

You don't have to change your IP. All you have to do is to change your CSC code to a country that already has the update
all you have to do is bring up the dialer and type *#272(Insert IMEI code here)#. If you don't want to bring out your box or remove the battery to view your IMEI code, you can dial *#06#. All I can say is that the ICS is already released here in the Philippines but you can try to experiment with the CSC codes if an update is available in their country. Once done, you can revert back to your original CSC code (if the option's available)
WARNING: Resetting the CSC code will reformat your phone. If you have any valuable data such as pictures, movies, and music, I suggest you make a soft backup. You can also backup your contacts and SMS through Kies.
It's so strange that Samsung would delay their update rollout in a country like Australia.

Thanks to the both of you for pointing me in this direction.
I have just done this and discovered that I have three viable options (XEO-POLAND, FOP-SPAIN, ATO-AUSTRIA) so I will have a crack at this tomorrow morning when my phone is at 100% battery and I have a chance to back up all of the data.
Thanks again fellas

[Q] CSC explain

Hi all, i´m very confusing about CSC codes.
I´m pretending flash the new baltic LQ3 ICS Image available today , but i live in Chile (CHB CHE CHL & CHT codes).
Founded this information to know the CSC charged in phone:
Your phone's IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number is an international "Serial number" for your phone to properly identify it.
Your IMEI can be found using the following methods :
At the back of your phone behind the battery
Or by dialing *#06#* while your phone is powered on it is a 15 digit number.
NOTE: If your phone prints out more than 15 digits for your IMEI , please only supply us with the first 15 numeric digits the phone provides, no dashes or space. The remaining numbers are unimportant as they are just checksum numbers.
Once obtained IMEI, it can be used to know the CSC code charged on Phone:
check for CSC (*#272*IMEI#)
My question is:
¿ how can i switch from precharged CSC codes from LQ3 -baltic ICS Image to south america ones that can be usefull in Chile ?
¿ is only matter of change the CSC code on phone or there is neccesary download some CSC image and flash with Odin or any else program ?
Please i´ll really appreciate your comments.
regards in advance.
