[Q] wiped imei while trying to flash - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
i recently purchased a used samsung galaxy s i9000 online, it was rooted with off stock MIUI rom installed on it. phone had some problem with software, whatever i installed on it after restart it came to original first boot configuration. so i tried to flash latest cm7 stable rom. it gave following error during the process an halted:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then i downloaded stock rom for sgs and flashed it and found out that during all this phone's imei is been wiped out. now phone doesn't accept sim & there's no signal.
Samsung guys say it maybe some hardware issue but I doubt it, also they are charging too much. can it be fixed? please help me....

I don't understand the above image, but I see a I9003 written in it.. are you sure your phone is not galaxy SL I9003?
if it is then you should download the stock rom for that model and not GT I9000

I think that you have made a mistake by flashing i9003 rom for i9000 !!!!!!!!!

i cross-checked my cell's model number with serial printed inside, rom version that came out was ZSJV6, so i flashed it, but no use

[Q] I need a bit of help removing all signs of root/flashing.

I've messed up my efs folder, and idioticly didn't back up, and now my phone doesn't work with my sim card, so I'm shipping it off to Samsung to get fixed up. But of course, I've rooted, used half a dozen different roms and firmwares, and I'm not really too sure how to cover up all my tracks.
I've unrooted using BackfireNL's method for Eclair, before upgrading to Froyo (just to make sure).
In my 'About Phone', though, three things are concerning me. my Baseband, kernal version and build number. My Baseband version is 'I9000XXJPP' and my build number is 'FROYO.XXJPO'. These don't seem very official looking to me. I've flashed the JPO rom from Samfirmware.
And, more worrying is my kernal version.
'2.6.32.9
root(at)sep-35 #1'
(I couldn't put an at symbol cause the system thought I was trying to post a link)
Surely it's not supposed to say 'root' all up in there, plain as day? Is there an official stock kernal I can flash? I've had a search, but I can't seem to find one.
Those are the correct settings for the JPO ROM.
I have exactly the same and haven't rooted yet:

Cant you just format the internal sd from the recovery blot?

[Q] help - unsuccessful rooting, phone stuck on booting screen

hi, i'm completely new to the android experience, so I know next to nothing about rooting. I read the post on how to root my samsung galaxy sII and decided to root it. I did the odin with
XWKDD_insecure.tar, and it was fine. Following that, I went on to use superoneclick. However, everytime i tried to root using superoneclick , the program becomes not responding on my
computer, so I gave up. After that, I turned on my phone and the wifi and 4g no longer works. So i follow an post trying to restore the factory firmware, the only catch is, my phone is
an US Sprint phone, and the firmware available in the post was the UK version. I used odin to run the UK version of samsung simfree firmware, but it failed. Following that, I went to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881 to download the android 2.3.3 for north america. I ran it using odin and it failed as well. so now my phone will turn
on but its stuck on the page that says samsung galaxy s2 with a warning sign on it. I can't turn it off with the power button. I have to manually remove the batter. Someone please help
me, I just got this phone last week.
Now its stuck on this :

Tab 7' P100 Sprint flash problem

Hello guys I am having a huge problem with my Galaxy Tab SPH-P100 7' the one for Sprint. Now I am not sure what happened but I got a "Samsung loop" screen and I decided to use "Stock Odin/Heimdall Files: Stock EF17 Tars" post to re flash the whole thing. Now after ODIN successfully flashed device now I do see Sprint animation and then I have this error. If possible you know what to do I'll be very grateful , because from tutorial above I was thinking tar+ pit should of made my device like new. But at first it looked like it did it and then BOOM .... this

I still can go to download and recovery modes and I guess it's matter of selecting proper tar+ pit ? I really don't know if possible help me out.
Thank you !
P.S.
To MOD, I post 2 identical posts because I simplyu could not find exact forum I need. Thank you for understanting
I'm in the exact same position, and I believe that it is our internal SD card that is damaged, that's why mmcblk0 (internal SD) fails to load, and why using ICS roms leads to the Encryption Unsuccessful bug.
The only solution I've found that makes sense in all possible ways is this HARDWARE fix but I'm a bit scared of trying it, so I'm currently working on a software only solution but its taking a while...

[Q] CF-Root confusion, which one to get?

Hello, I just got a Galaxy S i9000t, I needed to flash it with a rom from XDA(The current miui if that matters), and so I looked for a way to put a cwm on it, the way I found was using CF-Root, but when I got there I found so many versions and numbers that I didn't understand.
I noticed that in my device I had software version JVB(This is PDA I guess), and in baseband I had JV7, so I downloaded this and flashed it in Odin:
CF-Root-XW_XEE_JVB-v3.1-CWM3RFS.zip
The device boots okay, but when I reach the homescreen, it reboots quickly to the logo of the communication network(Hot reboot I think this was called?), and then back into home screen, which then triggers the reboot again, so I guess I did something wrong.
Can someone direct me to the right version for me? I found nothing about JV7 in the CF-Root thread, and if I need another version, can I just flash it in odin after I flashed the wrong one?
Thank you.

i9000T is same as i9000, but meant for specific regions, so your base-band is important for communicating with your home network. , you should note it down and use that when changing ROM's
if you only want Root, you can use Framaroot , if you want CWM you can use semaphore kernel. make sure your version is (froyo/ gingerbread) correct

Same thing happened to me flashing a Tmobile rom. To prevent this you need to go through the setting and allow unlocked bootloaders (or something like that, currently flashing my phone to look it up) but this will prevent this lock from triggering. How I got past this? Odin'd back to stock and flashed everything again.
Bro phone doesn't go to main windows how I can go to setting it's only stuck on bootloop
Have you tried flashing the stock image in odin?
Stock rom from sammobile?
Yeah, you'll need to get familar with the hardware keys and how to boot into download mode with them. Typically I'd link you with instructions but I think googling it yourself will do you some good. Do some research and be sure to answer nicely to those who offer help.
