HI, I recently had my sprint galaxy s3 flashed to metro pcs by a local phone dealer. The flash was great, I have 3g internet, sms, etc. I was also able to send and receive multi media messages but my lil brother accidentally deleted to the app that allowed me to send multi media messages. The name of the app is AndroidMessaging.apk, and now that I tried to re-install it, I get an error message saying, " Failed to validate phone, could not validate this phone's installation. Please bring the phone back to the dealer you had it flashed", and I am trying to see if there's is another way of fixing the problem without having to go to the dealer again. I also tried to fix the problem by downloading Go Sms Pro and i filled APN configuration manually but I still cant seem to send and receive mms. Please help me, Thank you.
You might get more help posting this in your phones section. Your in the hero CDMA section right now.

I'm thinking of doing a factory reset (after backing up my documents) before upgrading to Froyo (through Kies) I've been wanting to clean up my phone for awhile anyways.
Will factory reset restore stock kernel/remove voodoo lagfix and colorfix?
No, it doesn't

hi guys, I'm a total noob so please be gentle. I successfully updated my tab to gingerbread using the guidelines from android dev thread, the only problem that I have encountered so far is I cant receive or send mms.
I added apn already, put in all necessary info but its still not working. I tried to delete the apns then clicked on reset to default but nothing shows up.
oh I found another problem. when I update my Samsung apps it says error code 4002.
hope someone can help me. thanks!

Yeah same here, Are we meant to download a modem and flash it with Odlin or soemthing?
Hello friends
My Samsung Galaxy i9000b is no longer with the network service.
The problem started after I installed the ROM ICS 4.0.3 (teamhacksung and ONECOSMIC)
I tested these 2 rom, I realized that was not a good signal, I tried a few times and exchanging modem, but does not result.
So I decided to go back to stock rom 2.3.3 for i9000b.
My surprise now with stock rom has signal, but it is not possible to make phone calls or send SMS. The network 3g internet does not work anymore.
Since then I have tried to install the stock rom 2.2.2, with re-partition dbdata etc. With all wipe, format / system etc etc. And yet not solved.
To recap, the unit with stock rom 2.3.3 shows signal but can not connect to the network.
"In service
Selected network (live) unavailable "
I've tried to use another chip of my country and operator error is the same.
The imei is active in phone status.
Any solution or is it the modem of the device is dead?
sorry my english by google translate
thanks!
Sounds like settings issue. Check apn. Another user recently had a similar problem, turned out his carrier had disabled his data as some app had munched his allowance.
I had to bring in technical assistance to resolve. It really was a problem with the hardware. Internal memory specifically.
I have the exact same problems, with the exact same simtoms. I dont wont to take it to tecnical suport, isnt there an other solution.
Please help me. Thanks in advance.

Its done. I flash it again without the sim card all the way back from Eclair 2.1. After that the problem was gone. Now testing MIUI.
I´m sorry, the problem is back again, i have tryed everithing i can think about.
have u found the way to solve those problem?...seems happen to me also...every stock rom,every ics, cm9 i tried...got network for moment, then suddenly no service.no data...restart/pull out the battery, its ok again(but for temporary only)...clueless now
This could be issue with your modem. Please flash another modem using odin and check it. pick the right modem for your region/network.
Thanks,

Dear all, i was running imilka's AOSP ICS v08 and I got error of saying first SMS not sent as most users do. Then I read something about this error here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23339241&postcount=2403
So i tried to update the SMSC myself by trying the *#*#4636#*#* with the SMSC of Three Australia and supposes to be "+61430004010"
but it does not work, and now i cannot even send SMS with my mobile, but i am still able to receive SMS.
Today I update the imilka CM9, i thought the new rom and full wipe will get me going again, but it does not. I am now still not able to send SMS.
If there anyone here can help? Of course I am using Galaxy Note now with imilka CM9 V1
thanks very much
Kind Regards
Dennis
try to download go sms from market and if within you wont be able to send messages, so then something wrong with settings or try to remove sim card, put it on the other phone,send sms from that other phone and later put back sim card to your note
Give this little tool a try.
Thanks for the reply, it was definitely setting, as I tried other Apps, and it failed.
But your method works, i put it back to my Tmobile G2 (Desire Z), at first, it was not able to SMS neither, then I tried update the SMSC in my G2, and it seemed updated. Send SMS to myself again. it worked. Put the SIM back to my Note, everything working. I am not gonna mess with this SMSC or other thing again. so annoying.
thanks for your help. I am glad i keep a old phone around.

Thanks for the link, but since i have got it working, i dont really wanna mess it up again.
I put the Three Australia SMSC in your link and it returned me some number to put it. Would you know what exactly does it do for the conversion?
Thanks
Dennis
Yes. You insert the number you get from the little page here:
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone Information
SMSC: (type here the number) and hit 'Update'.
Hello,
I'm with a Galaxy S3 i9305T that i been trying to get it to give me signal but no success. I tried a bunch of things, back to stock 4.1.2, 4.3(loop) and 4.4.4(not sure if official), a bunch of modem files and nothing.
I can see my imei just fine and my phone sn is normal but i dont know about the efs folder. And all i get is Not registered on network and Emergency Calls Only. I tried Busybox from a thread i found here but still the same.
Sorry for the bad english.
Any ideas what can I do now?
Please help me with this
I downloaded so many stuff for this already around 15gb of stuff and nothing worked.
What's the easiest way to repair my efs folder? It has stuff on it, I just don't know if it's the problem.
I own a Leagoo M8 phone and it did the same thing to me. So what I did I want to my telco and they told was something to do with the cell phone towers in my area won't support certain band from 3G and I need an antenna extender

Basically all the I9305T i found available to download.
Also flashed some I9305 stock rom but dont remember.
Network operators shows every network for me but when i select one it says unavailable.
Found this https://mega.nz/#!hkMQgYCK!-5_CVVJTEL5nT34tzj7NuTerqHgQBJgb1lSI4NJTcBs but i dont know how to mess with efs stuff and dont want to completaly kill my phone.
Dont know how efs file work but my imei is correct on *#06# but i just cant get any network only emergency.
Also flashed custom NamelessROM, Cm13, LineageOS 14.1 and Resurrection Remix with so many modems for the I9305,I9305T.
All of them my imei was normal but emergency only.
Okay. Maybe get yourself one of those Hot Sale Phone Adapter Practical Dual SIM Card Adapter Duo SIM Converter 4G for Samsung Galaxy S3 S4 S5 Note 2 3 4
http://s.aliexpress.com/bUvii6Vb
(from AliExpress Android). I used to own an S3 and S4 and no problem. Maybe both are 4G

I dont need dual sim adapter and how would this even work if i cant even get network to work properly?
I recommend to use Samsung Kies and flash back to stock? Maybe you've tried or contacting your telco for a signal boost antenna

Kies doesnt connect to my phone, tried putting a stock rom already but it still gives nothing.
