[Q] How to Fix? Galaxy S "Emergancy Calls Only" After Odin Flash

Hi,
I have a samsung Galaxy S, and it was horribly branded, so i tried wiping the software, 1st time I tried it, I got no signal at all (don't know why?!), forgot what software it was because its been deleted.
Since then, in an attempt to fix it I flashed I9000XWJS3 with Odin.
Now it shows I have signal but "Emergency Calls Only" is shown where the network operator should be. Why is this?
This is a used phone that i bought from ebay, can't remember wether I got signal on the branded OS. Could it be a faulty sim tray or a fault with the phone? Or it is software?
Any ideas on how to fix? Please Note: I am a UK resident, My network is o2.
any other details needed let me know.
ALSO: If I go into network settings and select o2 as the network, it tries to connect but just ends up saying "Unable to connect. Try later"

Does it show signal as well? What I mean is do you have full.signal and it still shows the tab emergency calls only?

Yes, phone still shows it has signal, just emergancy calls only

Ok. Under settings what is the baseband version? I had this issue when I was on darkys rom and the only way to fix it was a reboot. But that would happen several times a.day.
Recently I have changed to docs rom and cooked fairly stock Tom and instead of jpy modem I used jpe and haven't encountered.the problem since.
Also you.might want to clean the sim card contacts.

Baseband version unknown, IMEI unknown after flashing Helly Bean

I went to stock GB from an ICS ROM, and then to Helly Bean. Everything seems to work fine except any kind of networking. I cannot connect to 3G or AT&T's stuff (text messages, calls, etc.). I can connect to my wifi network and use it. In the Settings on my phone, Baseband Version and IMEI are unknown. The only thing in my efs folder in Lost and Found. I have no backups, as I wasn't aware that this problem existed.
Not sure what to do. Right now I'm leaving the SIM card and battery out for a few minutes, and then putting them back in to see if that helps. I'll probably flash a modem as well. Any suggestions? Any known fixes?
edit: Tried the battery removal and modem flashing, neither worked. Now going back to stock.
Edit2: going back to stock did nothing. I tried another SIM card, and that one also does not work.

I went back to stock GB again (third time now) and it's now recognizing my IMEI, but I still can't text or call.

Check your APN. And don't forget to backup that efs folder...just in case.

It's not letting me look at the APN settings because it still doesn't detect a SIM card, only my IMEI.

Anything under Baseband ?? If not try flashin a modem through Odin.

Okay, I was definitely having a legitimate problem earlier, before I flashed to stock. At some point in this repair process, my SIM card ended up in my phone upside-down.... woops.
Thanks for trying to help me 4-2ndtwin.

Ooops...sh** happens lol.
Glad u got it fixed !

This thread most likely has to answer.
Check your APNs to make sure they match your carrier's.
Check your IMEI to make sure it matches the one with your phone. If it's not the case, you'll need to go back to stock KK4, backup your efs folder with a app that has root rights (like ES File Explorer) and restart the falshing process.
A good backup would be suggested before going to stock!

same problem baseband is unknown and imei is null. help

RIL problem

hi after flashing cm 10.1 and then gapps, my phone stopped showing the pin code screen and even was not able to search my network. i also tried flashing back to gb but in vain. what can i do?
thx to reply asap

no signal, no imei...
as stated above, my phone does shows that imei is unknown, there is no signal and baseband is also unknown. while searching google i found that the problem came from the efs folder. can somebody send me their .nv_data file plz? or will it be possible to restore the efs folder?
unfortunately, i didn't backup the efs folder as i didn't know that this would happen one day!

As pushing efs from someone else's phone will give you that person imei I guess it will be hard to find someone who will give it to you.
There is one thread with investigation of possible fix (finding location and exact file where imei is stored - so guys like you can edit this file to force imei back to the phone)

Hi,
I will have your thread moved to your device section. I suggest you add some more information to your post though. Like how you rooted exactly... Did it work also? Is your imei number still showing? (don't post the number here) and anything else you've done to your device.
Good luck!

What is your firmware version?
Indian baseband? You flashed anything after rooting?
Where did you get that root zip?
That zip must have contained some third party binaries which caused baseband crash. It is always advised to flash stock rom via odin(pop/mini specific odin).

Yes it is indian baseband but now its showing unknown , i'll tell u firmware version shortly , it successfully rooted all was fine but i started it by mistakenly using "LOCK key + Home key + VOLUME down ' and it said downloading and then the problem started ..... the zip file was from here (xda) only !

Dear Darth
Hi Darth , i rooted it by using mobile only via download zip available here , yes it is showing imei , but unable to detect signals from sim card now should i re root it via odin ?

[Q] 4g problem i9305

Can somebody help me with this 4g problem?
This is what i did:
1.flashed custom ROM (worked like a charm,i did nandroid backup)
2.flashed other custom ROM (didnt like it so I restored the first one from nandroid)
3.everything went well except no imei and no baseband
4.reverted back to stock rom with odin
5.and here is the problem,no 4g signal at all. 3g/2g works fine.
If I post my build.prop can somebody tell me whats wrong?
I have tried to put my sim card in other phone and it works but not in my phone.

Did you enable 4G in Settings?
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Free mobile app

Yes, I did...network mode is set to LTE
Is there a test that I can use to test is it a software or hardware issue?

Maybe an issue of Stock rom you flashed using odin.. Which one exactly have yoi flashed? What modem you have now? And finally, is your S3 i9305 or some i9305T variant?

Check this out:
Typ *#*#4636#*#* and goto Netinformation, then you will find a special-setup for the 2G 3G & 4G.
Sorry about my english. Cause i am german.
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium

Thanks for your replies,I flashed stock german 4.4.4 from sammobile.It worked very good about 2 months.
I think that modem is xxufoa1 and version of phone is i9305 lte international.
If somebody could help me with this issue,I would appreciate that.But no hurries,I got new playmate S6 edge...

try doing a complete wipe of data and cache, then flash stock rom again to see if problem persists

I have tried many times but no help...

Hey, try flashing the parambin.zip file (look for it on google related to s3 lte, you'll find it easily). Another thing to try is just wait with the phone turned on with a valid SIM. I found out that sometimes it delayed a lot to get signal, specially when changing SIM carriers on another country. After a while waiting it finally succeeded (probably unrelated but I also saw on the catlog entries about upgrading the sahara file of the qualcomm chip -the modem-).
