[Q] Really Strange Problem - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

ok so this before this evening my phone was working just fine so then my friend wanted to use my sim card so I normally open the battery gave him the sim card and after a while when he gave it back I put it back in my phone and started it but it got stuck in samsung logo. I thought it was just one of those hang then I opened the batter put it back but same again stuck at samsung logo then without seeing any other solution I reflash the rom but its got stuck on samsung again. Finally I tried flashing firmware using odin everything went successfully but couldn't get in the phone stuck on samsung. Any idea guys? the phone was completely fine a moment and its gone on the other. its i9305 by the way

Hi mate, sorry to hear that..
Anyways have you made a full wipe before flashing the stock firmware ? this is usually the solution.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy s I-9000 Froyo Update problem

hello guys,
Firstly let me state that I am not a very technical person.
Here is the problem,
I have the above phone on Eclair 2.1, plugged it into Kies and Kies offered to update to the latest firmware which is obviously Froyo 2.2.
Everything went fine, the phone rebooted and it appeared that the software had installed correctly. However, I noticed that I could not get any signal, not just that but the phone is now stuck in flight mode.
When I go to Wireless & Network --> Mobile Networks it does not even let me into that option. It says "Insert Sim card - Insert Sim Card to access Network Services".
On top of that, when I click on About Phone --> Status there isn't even an IMEI number!
I have tried to rollback the upgrade, tested the sim card in another Galaxy S (it works fine) so I know this is a software problem.
Does anyone out there have any advice so I can get my phone working again?
regards
Chris
Remove sim card and sd card then factory reset then set up as a new phone would be my first step .

Hi there,
Firstly thank you for your help.
That step did not work, I just tried it. So what would you suggest now?
I was thinking of re-installing the firmware again...thing is Kies won't allow me to do this again as it already thinks the firmware is up to date.
This is a really bizarre problem...any further suggestions?
Thank you in advance
Two choices one take it to Samsung for repair as Kies broke it .
Second choice would be to invalidate your warranty and flash basic stock rom via Odin this would be at your own risk .

[BIG.Problem]My SGA won't recognize my 2 battery and Sim card!

Guys, I really need help
My beloved galaxy ACE won't just recognize its original battery and also my sim card.
I don't why... I just flash ginger dx(but I am not putting the blame on it) and the first problem is my sim card is not recognize then I shut down my phone then remove the battery and the sim. And then when I boot-up my phone it just show no service and the battery icon show a question mark inside it.
Guys, thank you for reading.
Hoping for a reply.
well if it worked before the rom flash and and it didnt work after you got a new custom rom then i would blame the rom. But you can try reflashing the rom and see where that gets you, if you aer still having problems then you might need to get another custom rom, there are plenty of good roms out there

Bricked after " Network Unlock"

Hello everyone.
I installed CWM 5.0.2.6 and then Cyanogen mod 9 succesfully. Then I changed it to "MIUI TOCAi 0.1.4" and it was working fine although it could not find my network. I tried searching manually but without success (it kept on showing up that it's not able to register to the network im choosing and that i should try again later.) It had simlock before so I tryed to unlock it using this thread "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204705". I got the code etc but I didnt know where to type it in. I turned the phone off and on hoping that the menu with this code request would pop out but it didnt so I replaced the sim card with another one. It still didnt pop out so I replaced it with the previous one and the phone bricked.
Im not able to get to CWM or to the system at all. Im only able to get to DL mode. I tried to unbrick it using this method "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071970" and few similar ones. I used multi and single package but without success.
The simlock was for "3" network. Tryed O2 and Vodafone simcards.
Is there any way to unbrick it without going to the service?
I'm going to post youtube links to show you how it looks in just a few minutes.

Looks like your efs partition (either stl5 or bml5) got corrupted. This cannot be fixed by flashing roms or stock roms, since its a sepparate partition. Network Unlocking the ace might result in a brick specially if not done from stock firmware.
i bricked my gio after network unlock too, it was due to the efs partition being messed up, i couldnt get it to boot normally or recovery (screen flashes then dies) but download works, and odin didnt solve anything, so i sent it in to samsung and got a new gio
to sum it up, you now have a nice paperweight

[Q] S1 didn't connect to mobile network

Hi all,
I have a strange behavior with one Galaxy S1.
I bought a used S1 on eBay and flashed Darky Rom V11 Black Edition on it. After that I gave the phone to a friend. He inserted his SIM Card (Provider Blau.de). But the phone can't connect to the mobile network. So i inserted my SIM card in his phone (Provider Telekom.de) and it work.
So i put his SIM Card into my phone (also an S1 with Darky Rom V11 Black Edition) and it work too.
So I'm a little bit confused.
I flashed several other roms on his phone like DarkyRom Resurrection and Cyanogenmod 9.0 stable but nothing helped.
So all facts in short again.
2 Simcards A and B
And two Galaxy S1 with identically software (Darky Rom V11) 1 and 2
Simcard A in Phone 1 didn’t work.
Simcard B in Phone 2 work.
Simcard A in Phone 2 work.
Simcard B in Phone 1 work.
Does anyone have an idea whats wrong?

first of all: stay stock
as for the sim problem, device might be simlocked
try this maybe /showthread.php?t=1360174
Hi Somator,
I will try stay on stock tomorrow. I tried the Unlocker with the nv_data.bin of the phone. It tells me that it can't find any VIDEOcard and ask me If i want that it patch the file directly. I clicked yes and it wrote a new file. But when I use Winmerge to see the differences between the two files there aren't any.
Have the same problem with my sgs1 .
Replaced my antenna went back to stock.
Flashed new modems.
Still ****ty connection

Sim = reboot

Hey guys.
Long story short, Galaxy Mini reboots itself when it gets signal. So without sim card it works flawlessly. Or when the sim is in and I dont type the pin code. When a friend borrowed me the phone it was rooted with stock rom and some kernel on it. And it worked. Now I flashed back stock 2.3.6
firmware and now EVERYTHING is STOCK. And the problem appeared when i did a clean flash. Why would that be? And how to fix it? Please guys help me. I donw know what to do anymore. I tried other stock 2.3.6, but other country and same thing. It reboots or its just black screen after pin input (5-10sec)

So, you're using PIN Lock on your SIM ?
If so, then try to disable the PIN lock.
