Some more informations will help helping you. What Custom Rom? What exactly do you mean with "doesnt work"? Did you try to change the Sim pin and check if it is recognized again?

Reinstall your old Stock Rom and check what happens. Or install the correct JB release for your country.
No need to speculate about the cause.

hey thaidai i think i may have found the root cause to my issues and if you could clarify that would be great. it would appear that my sdcard is faulty so would plashing kernels from there have caused the issues i am having ?

[Q] No service / Network unknown after flashing

Guys I need your help!
My captivate i896 can't connect to the network after flashing an AT&T ROM and GALNET miui. Status shows network is unknown and I still have my IMEI. Flashing to the stock 2.3.3 Rogers rom doesn't help and I've tried other custom roms and modem. Maybe you know something that I can do to resolve this.
Thank you.
I had this happen when I flashed the ICSSGS, it wasn't reading my SIM, are you only flashing new ROMS or are you flashing a new kernal also?

i tried flashing kernels, roms, and modems, but no luck. It seems that the sim card is being detected though, i can access the sim tools. On status, im getting a value for signal strength but it doesn't change unlike if you got a working connection to the network.
BTW, how did you resolve your issue? Maybe that would help.
Thanks!

When I had my issue it was because I flashed like this:
From cog5v2 to Rom > Kernal > Rom
Then to fix it I did a full wipe and uhm... I can't remember what it's called, a check/fix permissions? then flashed:
From ICSSGS to Kernal > Rom > Kernal > Rom
and it fixed it.

Try going back to froyo. I had an issue where the Sim only showed up on froyo. I fixed it by reflashing GB bootloaders that I had just installed
Sent from my (CM9) ICS i897 Captivate
Which version of CWM are you using? Also are you clearing all user files before a new install?
I know this may sound dumb..but are you sure your SIM card is in correctly? I've done this myself & freaked out then opened up the back of my phone, I put the SIM card back incorrectly.

I've tried going back to froyo (same issue) using odin one click, then installed ginbgerbread 2.3.3 using the same method after that. Is there a way wherein you can just install the bootloaders?
@SGT_Watkins
I'm not sure of the exact version of the CWM that I'm using. With the user files, I do delete factory reset and wipe cache before installing them.
Thanks for all the help!

Yes, I got a vibrant as well and it has exactly the same sim slot. The captivate is detecting it because I can get into the sim tools.
Thanks!
So you can get to SIM tools and no service still? I hate to have you double-doing a lot of stuff but have you put the SIM back in the vibrant to ensure it's still good?
Yes I did but still got the same thing.
The good news is that everything is working now. I had a phone technician open the handset and it's actually caused by a hardware issue. I just installed GalnetMiui ICS and it's all good!
Thank you guys for all the help!

Urgent Sim Unlock help?

Hey guys before I had 2.3 and I had used an SGS unlocker off the market store to extract my nv_data.bin, I then used the samsung tool unlock code generator, when I used this I remember it unlocking my phone. I'm now running a custom JB rom and my network isn't working at all and when I search for it, it says "error while searching for network" I tried using the same method as last time to do it, i deleted my old nv_data and its just erroring in the samsung unlock tool. It's not asking for an unlock code or anything either What can I do guys

type *#06# in your phone dialer for IMEI number of your phone, if it start with 000 or missing, read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1857054
to solve it IF this happens after you flashed CM 10
Solution:- Reason is you had Jumped from GB to JB (should be on ICS before JB), so now you need to
1) Download Root Explorer from Play Store and use it to
2) Search you internal SD card for sdcard/backup/efs
3) Copy nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 and nv.log paste them into /efs in your Phone memory
4) Reboot to get back your original IMEI
or
you can start from the beginning.. go back to GB 2.36 (use a JVU ROM + Root, upgrade to ICS CM 9 and than to CM10
Solution for i9000 on JB:-Try not to jump from Gingerbread to Jellybean, as all upgrades should be done progressively. meaning you need to be on a GB 2.3.6> than into ICS and finally into JB.
For others, like missing IMEI, NO service, NO network problems, scroll down to EFS problems and Solutions in link given earlier

I'm still a bit confused friend, I've gone to the sammyfirmware site and I'm downloading the offical 2.3.3 UGKG3 rom, can I just put that on my phone and flash the .zip? If not, where can I get those 3 files above you mentioned, or would it be easier to use this "rescue kit" sorry I'm unfamiliar with most of thing. I didn't think upgrading was going to cause this problem at all. Really appreciate the help. I was going to try Kies but when I plug my phone in the only option i have is to turn on the usb?

[Q] IMEI goes AWOL with deodexed XXLK3 UK Firmware.

Recently i have come across a puzzling bug when i flashed deodexed UK firmware S5830IXXLK3 (by Alucard1989PL) and was wondering if anyone else had come accross this,
I flash my phone via ODIN 3.07 to stock XXLK3 UK firmware as normal , this gives me stock kernel & ROM.
I fire up ODIN and flash either Rafael or Hells kernel (it doesnt matter which), reboot, check phone status and i have IMEI.
I root my phone via CWM next just to make sure and check that debug is ticked, reboot.
I then flash the S5830IXXLK3 deodexed ROM via CWM, no problem. When the phone boots i check the phone status and each time i have lost my IMEI number.
On all previous deodexed ROMS i have used i have never come accross this, could it be the latest firmware thats been deodexed or am i overlooking a simple detail here?
Any comments would be appreciated.

Hi Viprdxd, I have also just experienced this problem after flashing the same XXLK3 UK firmware and then flashing a custom deodexed ROM that I am currently building. My custom ROM is currently based on XXLI1 firmware and I thought there may be some incompatibility problem. However obviously you have flashed Alucard's XXLK3 deodexed ROM so it can't be that. You say its not a kernel issue either so at the moment I currently have very little idea what is causing this. I need to find out though to make my custom ROM compatible with all firmwares so I will be investigating this issue.
I'm just glad I got my IMEI back by reflashing the XXLK3 firmware with ODIN cause I've already permanently lost it once before when I was a bit of a noob and didn't have a backup or anything!

Yeah I know that feeling all to well when you see your IMEI number missing I'll keep playing around to see if I can find out why but my feeling is its an issue ROM side with XXLK3., Hey good luck with your ROM I'll defo check it out when its done.

Nice one thanks :good:
Edit: Sorry Actually I still can't figure this out, if I flash XXLK3 with ODIN, IMEI number is fine. If I install Rafael's kernel, nothing else, it disappears.
If I extract the XXLK3 ROM and flash it in recovery no problems, if I deodex it no problems, if I install custom kernels then IMEI dissappears.
Which leads me to the conclusion its a problem with custom kernels except for the fact that if I flash the ROM I'm building on stock kernel IMEI also dissappears!! So for now it remains a mystery!

I have concluded that its not a problem with XXLK3 or The custom Kernels as both work, let me explain, XXLK3 standard and deodexed on stock (came with package) kernel works as it should. Raf's or Hell's Kernel works fine on every other firmware.
It seems to be a problem of compatibility of the two maybe Samsung changed some small detail or a tweek is needed in the kernels or both? I don't know as I am not a dev.

[Q] Upgrades blocks my GT N7000

Recently I've updated my phone from ICS 4.0.4 to Jelly Bean through samsung kies. It was ok for about
a week or so before it suddenly lost all network connection. My phone could not connect to any network,
only can make emergency calls. Samsung could not do anything about it and suggest i change the motherboard.
I managed to revert back to stock rom gingerbread using PC Odin and tried upgrading again to stock rom
ICS. The funny things is when I upgrade the phone to ICS, again the update blocks my phone as I thought
only JB would do that. And because I've been on ICS for quite sometime I didn't think it would behave that
way.
I have tried all method, factory reset, hard reset, wipe cache before upgrading to ICS yet it doesn't help. Can
anyone help me? Btw, my phone is not rooted.. Thanks in advance.
hows your IMEI? what does it start with?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.galaxysunlock&hl=en
Network locked and the phone simply could not detect my sim. The above method
would require me to root the phone, right?
Say if I'm going to root my phone, which one should I do first?
a) Upgrade ICS (official) then root and unblock sim
b) root the current gingerbread with CWM and then flash ICS rom
Sorry, noobie here... juz needed to make sure so I dont end up with brick device
If you root GB and flash ICS, root will be lost again. Be on ICS ... Make sure you don't do a factory reset on ICS unless you install a safe kernel. Install Philz kernel for ICS and it will root your phone. The you can try those apps.

Ok. I will try that. Thanks.
My kernel version is N7000DXLP9 (Baseband N7000DXLP5) (Build Number IML74K.DXLP9) so the file I should be using is

http://www.mediafire.com/file/yr1mua...2.7-signed.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/file/7q0qdg...LB-2.7.tar.md5
And the one with .zip is root only and tar.md5 file is root + CWM... is this correct?
I've rooted the phone and tried both Sim unlock apps as suggested by you but unsuccessful. So where do I go from here?

phone issues?

If I want to flash back to stock gingerbread rom does this wipe my root completely?

I've also been trying to get Kingdroid's gingerbread rom but notice that many of these gingerbread versions are dead
links. Can u pls help redirect me? I've found out that under ICS/JB my phone's CSC is locked that is y i am facing these network problem.
I thought if i can go back to GB base rom the phone will function again as it was on stock rom.

[HELP] unknown IMEI and unknown baseband

Hello devs
I am having s3 GT-I9305 LTE 2GB RAM qualcomm based.
Its running on 4.1.2 stocked and only rooted.
I don't know what happened but suddenly the phone just got switched off when I on the blocking mode and after that there is unknown IMEI and baseband.
I tried to flash diffrent modem but was of no use.
Had tried many ways but was of no use....
Can anyone please suggest me what should I do
I don't have backup of my efs folder and I am totally screwed up...
Does installing stock rom again will bring it back or there is other way
Please help :'(

First you may try to reinstall Stock Rom using Odin.

Bro I tried flashing persues kernel cause somewhere I have read that by flashing persues kernel you can get the phone back to normal.
So I flashed the kernel and after that it showed me baseband number but imei was showing me only 0 nothing else.
I updated the phone to 4.4.4 so check it will work or not but was of no use.
Can u help me by giving me the link of a complete stock with all the file for GT-I9305 uk version.
Hi,Mustakim_456,I would recommend you first to try this method-flash Param.bin from this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...warning-guide-backup-restore-imei-nv-t1946915
It's simple and quick,using Odin.Good look.If this doesn`t work, try to flash ROM stock from here:http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9305
You will find versions 4.1.2;4.3 and 4.4.4.
