[Q] Samsung Galaxy S I9000 No Service!

Hope Someone can help.
I had a problem with my Samsung galaxy s i9000 and i was told to flash it using Odin, i downloaded the files from sam firmware and put android 2.3 onto it, when it had completed the phone will not get a service, everything else works fine and it reads the sim card and the contacts etc it just wont connect to network?
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Josh

Does it work wireless ?
Does it get phone network, or both data and phone services are unavailable ?
Do you have in wireless and network settings under mobile network the "use data packet" switched on ??
Did you try with a sim from another operator just to see if it's a matter of specific operator settings ?
I got italian language, maybe settings name are a bit different from the ones i mentioned, but that's the concept.
Bye

all that works fine and i haven't tried a new sim card as i do not have another sim card to try but i thought that if it was that problem the phone would not start as it would ask you for a network lock code? it is really annoying. ]
thanks

Check if your IMEI is correct, you find it under settings, about, status.
Your correct IMEI is on a sicker under the battery.
Edit: to late ; )

Was it the same problem with the service before you flashed it?
What rom did you flash?

nope when i try and make a phone call or send a text it says "mobile network not available"

mmmm....
are you sure you downloaded the correct rom ? I mean there are different roms for different countries.
While you just reflashed, why dont you go back to original stock rom or to a stable one (one i remember is JPY_JPY_JPY) just to see if everything works fine ?
Anyway....which was the problem you had that required you to flash with odin ??

Yeah you prolly downloaded a rom fir another region if your imei is in tact and ya vant even make calls. If you can make calls and just cant use data then the rom doesnt have your apn settings and you will have to add them manually.

Have you bought it used with this problem?
If so there is a chance that the IMEI is reported stolen and blocked at the service provider.

That is the wrong one for UK. Use XXJVK instead and you will be fixed.

Factory reset, flash a different rom, factory reset. Not all flashes are totally successful, this should help

Try to test another sim-card.
It could be that easy, even if it seems to work a bit.

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

[Q] Not registered on network

Hello,
a friend of mine has bought the Galaxy S3 LTE (I9305) has the following problem:
If the Netwok Mode is set on either GSM only or WCDMA only, everything works well.
On the other hand, if it is set on LTE/GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode) after a few seconds
the "Not registered on network" error appears.
The SIM card used does support LTE, could that be the source of the problem?
Also, my friend accidentaly tried to apply a i9300 CF-root and we restored it following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946915
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Got same problem here have no idea what it is.

If you guys used a different rooting method and not the one's posted in the I9305 forum , you probably lost your imei number. Check if you got it dial *#06# and your imei will hopefully appear.

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)

[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-).
