Just a quick question - I flashed v21a, as there was no root for v20c. A few mins ago I flashed v20c, then rooted, then installed CWM, then flashed king 3D rom , then titanium backup. My question is, does restoring all system data/apps like reset everything..? When I look in about phone, it says, Software Version - V21A. How can I check which baseband I have?
If you flashed 20C with kdz method,than you're on 20C baseband I think.
The roms in zip format and backups do not flash baseband.

Upgraded my SGS stock 2.3.3 yesterday to CM9 nightly posted on 07-06-2012. I love the ROM, but the only problem is - i don't have any network signal on my phone. Wifi works. It seems to scan the mobile networks and registers also and creates APN connections automatically. But on selecting any of the networks, it shows the message: "unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later." The IMEI number shows up correctly. Using Vodafone India network.
I feel it should be just a minor setting somewhere that is missing...
Does anyone know how to make this work?
...or should i switch back to the stock ROM, and maybe later to CM7? I'm on Linux. Found XXJVU ROM in Heimdall format. Do i need to install clockwork again after installing XXJVU?
Thanks in advance.
Wipe again.Flash again.
hey! make a copy from the zip file of the ROM and replace the file (apns-conf.xml) which is uploaded here as a zip file with the file (apns-conf.xml) in this directory "System/etc". it worked for me and i wish it will work for u bro.
send me if it work with u or not.
Why you don´t install de modem from the your ROM stock 2.3.3 ( via Odin ) ?
I think the new modem ICS is not compatible with the system of their country.
Tell me how you solved your problem.
Sorry, for my poor English.

Before upgrading I had taken the back up of EFS Pro application, after upgrading since EFS Pro was not detecting my mobile. I had installed root explorer on my mobile and copied the EFS data into /efs folder but it did not helped.
Hi, I have a problem with i9000 I had on it AOKP with glitch kernel and decided to go back to backup from stok firmware made in CWM 3.0.0.5 I think and now Phone is stuck on galaxy s logo. I can go to recovery but it cant mount any partition so I cant do anything. Could someone guide me how to fix this? Do I need to flash something through odin?
You can't replace a Samsung based Rom over aosp / nightly/aokp, the partition layouts are different..... flash stock with .pit with Odin/heimdall
Ok good to know that ;] Can I have a link to some stock rom and all files needed? I'm New to galaxy s so will need a little help with it. My phone was on XXJVT does it make any difference?
Thanked you by accident! Samfirmware.com
Ok there are a lot of them there is there any difference? I mean can I use I9000XWJW7 when I had I9000XXJVT ?

Hey guys! Need some help here.
I know there are other threads on this forum about this but I've tried everything suggested to recover my IMEI but nothing works.
The problem is that I updated my Galaxy S3 to a custom rom with android 4.3 jelly bean, everything was okay, after that I decided to downgrade to the stock android 4.1.2 and my IMEI was not recognized any more, I must emphasize that before update from 4.1.2 to android 4.3, I did a backup of the EFS folder.
I restored the EFS folder with the 9 Steps to recover your imei guide on my new installed android 4.1.2 and I still got a wrong IMEI 0049... and Serial 00000... I have followed the guide lots of times and it stills the same.
I had read that it could be a modem MG6 problem in this post ... but now I'm with with stock 4.1.2 so that's discarded.
I also notice that it seems that the android os rewrites the nv_data.bin that I have previously copied into the EFS folder, is this possible?
Because in theory it should work:
I have a backup of the EFS folder got when I was 4.1.2.
I went back to Stock JB 4.1.2 rom.
I replaced the EFS folder with the "9 Steps to recover your imei", and it continues with the 0049 ...
Technical service want to charge $ 180 to restore it but it does not seem right for me when I have the backup and I could solve it.
Guys please some help!
Dude do you have a Nandroid backup from a previous rom? If yes restore it and you should recover your imei back, then retry to flash the new rom again. It worked for me!

Why would Nandroid restore IMEI if it has never backed up the EFS ???

It depends which recovery you use!

I am aware that Philz lets you create a EFS backup on its own .
So pray tell the recovery that automatically backs up EFS in a Nandroid as it should be stickied in the faqs

Hey thanks for the response but that's another rare point, I have noticed that in other posts, and also you say, that there is a /data/radio folder but I don't have the radio folder, the only radio folder I found is /data/misc/radio but inside this one there isn't any NV file.

Successful Downgrade to stock 4.1.2 from 4.3
I had similar issue upgraded to UK Stock 4.3 from Samfirmware ad had a terrible experience. I came across this 4.1.2 stock rom for Germany that worked with no issues as this one has MG4 modem that reads EFS2 partition newly implemented by Samsung,
Product Code: MBC
PDA: I9300XXEMG4
CSC: I9300MBCEMH1
MODEM: I9300XXEMG4
simply flash it through ODIN
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/250954845/08fe425/I9300XXEMG4_I9300MBCEMH1_MBC.zip.html
If your S3 doesn't reboot on its own, enter Recovery Mode by pressing Volume Up + Power + Home button simultaneously and then performing a Data Wipe/Factory Reset and wipe any cache partition. Then select Reboot System Now and you should be good to go.
Hope your problem will also solved as mine. Click Thanks if it works
I managed to get mine back by going back to 4.3, thought i had bricked my phone. I then went to a newer 4.1.2 as above
How to know that backing up ime by efs error? I backed up my ime. I am afraid of it's error. Because i never try jb4.3. So i never check my backup my ime too. I attend try cm11. So can i downgrade from 4.4 to stock 4.1.2 without lost ime?

It's seems like that the ROM you posted is for i9300 and not for i9305 ..
And I also like to know if I'll get any problems after downgrading from CM 11 ?

Just check the modem version used by the ROM you have used. if it is equal or greater than MG4, then my solution is hoped to work. I believe that older modem version do not modify the EFS structure therefore no worries for old ones.

Made an account on here just to confirm that this method works. I downloaded the file which contained a single .tar, flashed via Odin but came to a boot loop. So cache partition wipe and factory reset brought me back to 4.1.2 and the IMEI is all good so I can connect to my mobile network fine. Thanks for that buddy, you're awesome

My problem is that I've flashed virginity v11 and changed baseband to ANB1 and looks like I stucked on this modem. Recovery and flushing stock rom does not change modem version, no matter what rom i use I had still ANB1. Yesterday I flushed ANA1 and testing now.
Problem is that since I flushed ANB1 with virginity my batery works very poor. (1day max). So i decided to force AMB2 modem by fushing it by TWRP. But i cant find original flashable ANB2 modem.
Thx for advice I'll try to extract modem from original rom.
ps. offcourse I'm looking for N version of modem
