I had this problem before. Someone said that if this happens. Than You'll need to flash a modem.
Check your Baseband first

Been covered many times. It usually happens when you skip a version of android.
Flash back to stock via Odin and upgrade Android in order.. froyo-GB-ICS-JB for example.
No imei will mean no network connection.... Usually.

hi all,
Been reading these forums and decided to Install CyanogenMod 7
I rooted my phone
backed it up
Installed CyanogenMod 7
Part of the install procedure is Wipe data/factory reset which I didn't really give much thought to until after I had done it.
Since I have a full backup can I get me data back (contacts, messages, favourites) i'd settle for just getting my contacts back if possible
Hey
U can get it back if you had all that in your backup...
Just restore from backup..it'll work..
Cheers

I have a galaxy tab gtp1000 running g aokp Sgt job(gsm). After inserting the sim,the tab doesn't shoe any bars,but I have tested the sim on other mobiles and it works just fine.In the status section of settings it shies my carriers name and it shies mobile network disconnected.this problem even existed on cm10.The imei is also wrong ,it shows 00499... which is wrong.
Please help me get network connectivity back!!
I have pm you before, right?
Go to /sdcard /backup
Find the oldest one I think is safest.
Replace the entire /efs with the one from backup.
The latest might be already bad.

I had same problem too,
but i can't fix it
in /sdcard/backup i have 2 subfolder, they are "efs" and "efs-189"
what i must have to do?
sorry my bad english
They are just two different backups.
Use the older of the two. I have more than a dozen.
If you can't tell, try one after another.
If all fail, restock. And if stock good, try a rooted custom Rom like overcome. Then backup the /efs manually.

If he has been flashing the phone and you have null imei and baseband, chances are that he also tried to root and flashed the package intended for the i9300.
Head over to the dev section and take a look in my sticky thread guide. Theres a param binary near the bottom of the first post. Download that and flash with odin. That should give you a working phone back.
Let me know how you get on.

Dont update ril as it has a qualcomm ril not a samsung ril and for the same reason efs pro wont do alot as the I9305 uses a different efs structure aswell.
I am currently in the process of updating it to support qualcomm devices.

That's why I don't trust at 100% on online sells, it sad but true...
hello,
i have the GT-P1000 that i kept stock with the following details:
firmware : 2.3.3
baseband : P1000DXJPE
kernel : 2.6.35.7 [email protected]#2
build number : GINGERBREAD.DXJPE
a few days back, the phone suddenly stopped making calls at all. after pressing dial, screen shows "dialling" like usual but after that "call ended" without any dial tones.
sms is still ok and i still get data. bills are paid
checked with other colleagues using same provider (this is company' phone) and confirmed others can make calls. so the problem is isolated to my device only.
over the previous couple of days i installed several applications and i uninstalled all (including samsung push service) but no dice.
i looked around and found this thread. if flashing modem is required to fix this, then it would be convenient as i cant flash from laptop at home (laptop charger also died two days ago).
but being totally noob, can somebody pls advise what should i do?
No choice, you need a PC.
And you can try to be more specific on which provider you are using.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Provider is Telkomsel (Indonesia).
The samsung push service,btw,keeps installing itself.

Try jpz baseband when you have a PC.

Hi,thanks for the input,sorry for the late reply.
Just to make sure,do i hv to flash new modem via odin? in the thread i mentioned above,i was lead to think i can flash it in recovery.
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
If someone provided the zip you can flash via cwm recovery, but none via stock Samsung recovery.

Thanks,that clears it up.
My tab get wierder by the day. Now im only on Edge.
Now . . . to wait for my charger.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
update : no dice
rooted the tab with cf root and installed JPE and JPZ without success.
before i hard reset my tab,can anybody give ideas?
note : turns out that somehow the setting in mobile networks-network mode changed to gsm.thats why i got Edge only.changed back to auto and its good now.
weird.
Update.
Since i needed a phone for work,company loaned me an xperia while i "had the tab fixed".
Naturally,i kept fiddling with my tab until it acted really really funny and restocked it.
Its functioning properly now.
Now since i know how to restock,i think i might have a shot at some of the roms here
See you till then. . .
I flash slimbean 4.2.1 last night. Smooth but I get 24+hrs no service.
I check my imei and get this just. What should I do??
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
did you checked your Baseband version in settings-> about phone: Baseband?
If it is unknown, then try to flash a modem on top. Depending on what rom you came before, SLIM does not provide a modem within its rom.zip.
And what imei is showing in settings->about phone->status: IMEI?
a number beginning with 0049xxxx or something like that is only a pseudo imei and you have lost your original imei (do not post your complete emei here for safety issus)
You Must Install Stock ROM ( 3 Files ) and when you install 3 files ROM , Every things Should be OK.
To get the imei back: yes.
But if the IMEI is ok, flashing a modem should be enough....
Thank guys. But my phone brick yesterday because of too much flashing.. And now i'm using gamerom .. Thanks for your help

A phone can not brick because of too much flash, but it can be brick, the wrong flash.
Maybe you're right
