Hello, I bought of a friend a Samsung galaxy s and he said it needs only unlocking,so i "think" i unlocked it successfully.Was putting a O2 Simcard in and in applications i was having then the o2 SIM Toolkit.
But when i tried to make an phonecall, he tells me "Mobile Network not available",so i went to settings and wireless and network and tried to choose an network operator but he tells me then " Unable to connect to this network at this time.Please try again later."
What can I do?
Did you check the APNs?
Please first check if your IMEI is intact. If it is, flash a different MODEM and see if it works. If it's not, flash a fresh ROM using ODIN and that should hopefully restore your efs.
At first thanks for the reply, but now what is a APN? And how do i know if my IMEI is intact?
Sry,am a newbie
For you IMEI you should check your original SGS Box's sticker. There should be you IMEI number printed on. If you dial *#06# you should be able to read your IMEI. --> Look if it is the same as on your box
for apn settings. Apn is your connection settings, how your phone connects with the providers network. you have to check your mobile network settings if these are correct.
So, the IMEI nr is different then on the sticker,and the apn wasnt ticked,so I ticked the O2 and tried but still no mobile network.
Then i need to flash if I'm right?
I was already looking a bit around here about roms etc. But there are quite a few out there,so when you say to flash a fresh rom,which actually do I need to use?
Thank you
Hi again,
because the imei wasn't the same, I flashed it with a new rom (actually two different ones)
But still after both flashes I still don't got my old imei and still no mobile network available. After the one flash with I9000XXJPU he didn't said anymore no mobile network available,instead he said no data network available.
It would be nice if somebody would have some advice or help.
Thanks
hey! don't panic, i have had the the same problem
just download darky's resurrection edition in the development section and flash it. it should bring you back to froyo 2.2.1 and should also restore your imei properly. after this procedure you are free to flash any rom you want

Flash back to 2.2.1
Check imei
Continue on..
Also the problem you had when flashed JPU sounds like you didnt have your APNs correct..thats why the "no data network available"

No Network
Hi!
I have the same problem.
Network is fine (i switched the SIM-Card into different phones), but my SGS GT I-9000 does not connect / find to any network.
I am running Darky`s ROM 4.0.4 v11.0 Black Edition with 3.0.17-Semaphore_ICS_1.2.5s.
Also, the phone says on screen the name of my network provider (COSMOTE), but no signal.
What now?
Hi All.
I'm trying to get my friends phone to work. he got given it as a gift from a family member who upgraded, this was about 3 weeks ago and i havent been able to get it to work. the phone is unlocked, and now rooted with Dark Nights 4.0.4... it did have gingerbread 2.3.5 on... but regardless of the rom this handset has had this problem ever since.
The problem:
When we first put his sim card in, he popped up with signal and a carrier name, then changed to emergency calls only. But the signal bar was still full! So thinking it was software related i gave the phone a factory reset, no fix. So i then rooted the handset and put a custom rom on, the same rom that i use on my i9000. Darkys Rom 4.0.4. Still no fix, this is very wierd, tried lots of sims in this phone now and does excactly the same with each one, and we know these sim cards work because there our own.
We have tried with 3, T-Mobile, Orange, o2 and Vodafone. Excactly the same happens all the time, carrier name pops up for about 2 seconds then goes to emergency calls only. but signal bar still full.
Here is all the details on the about section of the phone....

Is the apn setup correctly? You should be able to get correct config from the web

Yeah thats displayed correctly.
Hmmm, have you tried factory reset? If so, might have to reflash back to stock rom, that should get radio working (unless imei is barred somehow)
If you have a backup of your efs folder, try restoring it (after backing up current efs folder)
clear cache, dalvik cache, reset permissions, reboot

I had a similar issue with my I9000T.
I was able to get sertvice in some areas and Emergency calls only in others.
I flashed back to stock and still had the issue, so i returned it to my carrier for service and it came back all good.
OK, i was going to flash to stock again just to make sure, and i cant find the rom, were can i download it for Odin? I cant remember were i got my one from?

Phone will not recognize sim/ imei "Unknown"/ baseband "Unknown"? *Updated*
Updated title because problem has now changed.
current problem--
Phone is stock, randomly stopped getting signal factory reset phone using keypad, now phone will not recognize sim card, the imei is blank and the baseband is unknown. Tried reseating the sim, and powering on off.
initial problem--
After having a problem free note for some time now it randomly stopped working. I cannot make a call/ text or use data but the wifi works and the phone functions outside of those uses. When making a call I get various errors in the form of Mobile network not available/ Not registered on network and when i go into mobile networking settings> network operators it takes a while when searching and tells me to either try again later or gives me a message "error while searching for networks." When i take the sim out all together I get bars of service but when the sim is in it either gives me a circle with a line through it or a empty signal bar triangle.
I called straight talk customer support as i thought it was a problem with the service and they told me I had a bad sim card. I have since checked the sim in another phone and it works fine. I have tried multiple working sims in other phones and no luck in mine. The phone appears to be recognizing the sim as the apn settings are adjusting based on what sim i put in. I have tried to take out the battery, take out the sim, factory restore but nothing seems to work. I have also checked the imei number online to see if it was blocked or something and it said it was not. I took it to a local phone repair shop but after toying around with it for a hour they didn't know what was wrong, so here i am, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. thanks.
May be the phone is network locked. is it asking for some kind of key or pin anytime or when restarting the phone?
where did this begin to happen?

No, its not asking for anything. I was like 10 miles from my house when it began happening and has continued since I got home.
have you tried changing modems?

After doing a factory reset using the keypad, *2767*3855#, it now says it doesn't recognize my pin and when i type *#06# IMEI comes up with nothing after it. Also, my baseband is now unknown. Is my imei corrupted or something?
Are you on a custom ROM...do you have imei backup... did you try to reseat the sim card

I know the sim isn't the problem as it works in another phone.
You may want to try flashing stock GB with PC Odin...then with stock GB recovery do a factory reset.
Don't do anymore factory resets if your on ICS and completely stock - you will kill your device...see the brick bug sticky

I'm assuming i have to root my phone in order to look at this folder? I'm looking into this now.
yes.
when restarting phone do you get the password prompt for the sim pincode, could be sim is not registered?
Anyways a stock phone should not do this. Its a case for customer service to fix efs. That appears to have instantaniously corrupted(!) first case I have ever seen of this.
Almost cannot believe it.
Without sim, is the imei there? I am suspecting your emei was gone before which you never noticed then. Is it even a new phone?
note rooting might void warrantee, so be careful

I used es file explorer and within the efs folder there were 5 mb worth of files.
A friend of mine gave me a S3 to play with and said i can have it if i can get it to work.
Now he doesnt know the original network that it came on or what the original firmware version was.
Before i even tried to get a sim card to work i unlocked it using the hidden menu with sha256 etc.
Now when i put in a sim card it doesnt register to a network, I am in the UK and have tried Three, GiffGaff and T-mobile sims as they are what i have and none of the register to network.
I have a couple of bars signal and the phone says "emergency calls only".
The IEMI seems fine and I have backed up the NV data using QPST and EFS Professional

Build Number - JSS15J.I9305XXUEML9
What would be the next step to try?
Have you considered that it may be blacklisted...
I wouldnt have thought so, It worked before when he used to use it ages ago, hes had a few phones since.
He messed around with it quite a lot and has changed the firmware/modems and what have you so much he doesnt know what he has done with it so i presume that its just not set up right.
So anybody got any ideas?
Flash a UK stock rom read the network imei efs stickied posts and work your way through them .
Try your carrier's guide of setting up the correct vpn.

I Have had this i9305 now without mobile signal, with a vodaphone it did used to show signal but in all cases it always says 'no mobile networks' or 'not registered on network' i have tried with every sim i can think of... it was suggested to flash a stock rom which i did..this made no difference, i then tried installing CM11 and followed the guide to the letter.
I know this phone is not blacklisted as i checked with the imei, i have tried flashing different modems but to be honest im not sure what i am flashing to it..i have tried three different ones now starting with XX as i am in uk...i really dont know if i have missed something or doing something drastically wrong..i have read and read and usualy i would have had this resolved by now...can anyone please help me as i want to give this handset to my girlfriend for a present very soon so we can keep in touch..i am at my wits end with it:crying:
Thanks
Try an emergency restore through Samsung Kies - this should eliminate any software related problem. Sounds to be a hardware problem though so get Triangleaway going and send it for repair if that doesn't work.
Flash 4.1.2, then enable and disable the LTE-only mode hack in the hidden service menu (the *#2263# one, not *#*#4636#*#*). (If you have root, you can also access that menu in 4.3 or even the 4.4.2 port, but it's a bit more involved.)

it won't let me do that as it doesn't list the phone as needing an emergency recovery. I flashed a stock rom and the signal is showing but it keeps saying not registered on network.. if I do a search it finds providers but when I opt for the provider of the sim it just perpetually spins at registering on network.

Have just followed a guide to root this unit, upon installing root checker it says this device does not have proper root, Odin reports that everything went ok and i get the red pirate android..when the phone boots a pop up comes up saying unfortunatley SU has stopped working... not sure whether KNOX is stopping this ?

please start your own thread as it is not relevant to mine.
Someone's suggested this phone is barred.. I have run a check which says it's not blocked but it's been suggested that this is unreliable...I have bars showing but just never registered on network.
Does your IMEI reported in *#06# match the one printed under the battery?
