Dear all,
I just want to make sure that my vodafone LTE S3 GT-I9305 is ready to be given back to vodafone shop (sim card is not recognized at all, either some kind of lock or simply broken). also got message "not registred in network". vodafone employer came to us in store showing us the s3 saying "just want to show you the color". now i figured out that the box was already open when he came to us....
got phone yesterday but never tested phone function before rooting. used CF root with CWM and later also CF auto root to get back stock recovery. also resetted flash count. never flashed anything else, especially no other image. just did these two root options.
my questions:
- after final root with CF auto root I used Triangle Remove and Downloader showed count of zero, binary "Samsung Original" and system "Samsung Original". But after resetting phone (wipe in recovery console) it shows system in downloader "custom" (binary is still samsung...flash count still zero "no"). Is this normal?
- is recovery console the original one?
- am i good enough to go back to vodafone with this?

Some more information, because I saw some post on other poeple having same problem with "Not registered in network"
Maybe it is some issue, because phone might have been unlocked before I bought it or imported from somewhere. You never know what those guys in vodafone shops really sell to customers....Or it might be locked although it should not be locked. As I said before...Only rooted phone, but never flashed any other image or radio version. Basically only thing that was changed was to put on CWM after first root....and using CF Auto root to get back stock recovery...
MORE OVER==== IN SETTINGS IN STATUES it says=
network=not know
service state=out of service
roaming=not roaming
ERI version =not available
mobile network state =disconnected
serial no=it is shown (but i will not post it here)
imei=Not known
device status= Customized (in German "Geändert")
Might have lost IMEI....also tried *#06#....show "null/null"...
why does it say System Status : Cusrom And werent you the person who sister tried to root it and you didnt know what root she used because now ther is not any imei showing?
Hi,
I have restored my GT i9000 s back to stock ROM using the instructions on XDA and on the Droidangel website and everything is as described except the SIM is not recognized.
In 'About phone', 'Status' the Network is "unknown" and the Phone number is "unknown".
Signal strength, mobile network and IMEI is present but "Mobile network state" is 'Disconnected'.
I have an assumption that it may be because originally the phone Network was Vodafone however now I am with Tesco/O2 (the Tesco SIM worked OK before restoring back to stock ROM). I currently don't have another SIM on a different network to test it but given the information above are you able to offer any advice please?
Thanks in advance.
FIXED

Hello everyone. I bought a samsung galaxy s3 mini version nfc i8190n when lam bought the phone had a problem with GSM and HSDPA network. Do not want to register with any sim card network in any network. The phone has IMEI and modem good. When searching network manually, your phone finds them when I select a network does not register on the network. The phone came with android 4.1.2 baseband version i8190NXXALL6 Number
i8190NXXALL6 CSC: KOR. Before I get to work I saved the foders "efs" and "modemfs". For five days I struggle with it and we did and at the moment I'm stuck and ask for help.
Here are the steps that I did:
1. I changed csc from "kor" in "btu"
2. I rewrote the software with odin. Same i8190NXXALL6 Stock firmware samsung.
3. I installed CWM Recovery and I Flash all versions of this model,modem.
4. I installed custom ROMs, I returned to stock ROMs
5. I installed the stock recovery with odin and he appeared in DOWNLOAD MODE "custom binary download"=yes 2 times;"System Status"=custom;"current binary"=custom. I used the TriangleAWay and I brought "custom binary download=No. I8190NXXALL6 I reinstalled the stock rom via odin with repartition then full erease on the phone Cahe,Data,etc.and returned to" Custom Binay "= No Current Binay = Official Samsung, System status = Officia.Updates software and firmware from samsung works after many writings kind CWM unofficial ROMs, etc.
6. After each writing ROMs I rooted the phone and replaced the file "modemfs" nv.dat file. I downloaded from the XDA forum several files of other users Nv.dat i8190N this model, we have replaced each other and nothing.
7. I deleted all files in EFS folder and modemfs after deletion had baseband XXXXX. IMEI number has remained untouched.
8. I wrote modem manually via CWM recovery and nothing same problem.
I did have searched all the forum and other forums, I searched on google and do not know what to do. My phone is now rooted in the stock rom, stock kernel, stock recovery. These are details which are:

Yes i know but why would you purposely modify the modems and other stuffs, you should have brought it to your network provider service center or samsung and ask them about it, it could just be an SIM card problem
thanks for reply

No. Is not sim problem issues becouse i test with a nother sim card`s of diferent carriers. Wen i put a nother sim card in apn setings are the setings for the carrier sim wat ai put,wen i cheange the sim with a nother carrier in the apn setings are the setings of the carrier sim card wat i m put. So for exemple i have 3 sim card`s of diferent carriers and all the sim`s card have pin security cod and the phone ask me for pin, after insert the pin code with all sim card`s don`t register on the netowork but the apn setings of the carrier automatic are there on the setings,so the phone see the sim card for all carriers, in setings wen a search manualy for the netorks the phone see the netowork wen i select the netowork manualy not register on the network,if i select automatic sey "registering on netowrk" but is not becouse if i want to call i can`t "not registering on network" sorry for my english ((

hmm.. as the last solution - search "gsmhosting efs backup request" on google ( ai not able to paste external links here). You will find the backup efs folder from a working sgs3 mini i8190 phone. Flash it to your phone (first keep a backup of yopur own efs before doing this ... just in case)
all the best !

My phone is bricked at this moment. Partition on the phone are mess up. One guy from the Mobile Phones Center brick the phone and my phone is in this stage righ now :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657862 . Wen i have news and solution i post heare. Good day All.
I got the same problem with my phone, it just stopped registering on networks, tried any sim that was available in my country and nothing worked! If you find any solution please update!
Any updates???
Searched and searched... Had a good rooted stock rom, then tried something new a few days ago. I seem to have messed up the modem/bandband. Some issues as the original post. Re-flashed different roms, stock, rooted, unrooted, custom. Tried various different baseband updates. Everything works except being unable to register to the network. IMEI has not changed or been overwritten.
Any help would be gladly accepted.

I have the exact same problem. I'm on Orange (EE). Yesterday morning my phone was registered on the network fine, I was in a poor signal area but still on 3G. Then I roamed across the south west of Britain and noticed my phone has no signal. It just wont register on any network, even EE. If I select automatic, it says it registers but it gets no signal and when I try to make a call. It says not registered on network!
The phone is totally stock. My sim works in another phone. I've done a factory reset but the problem still exists.
Was thinking about flashing the ROM but if others have been there too with no fix then I won't waste my time. I keep thinking EE have pushed something to my phone to block access as I'm out of contract by three months and they want me to upgrade!!
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.

when you say 4.1.2 which rom.. A stock one or a custom.. could you point me please ?.. The stock rom I have flashed is 4.1.3 I didn't flash a radio after as being stock it would be there already ??
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 ?
no network.
Hellow to you all.

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?

hey loady,
did you manage to solve theproblem? i have the same problem since roughly 3 weeks. but honestly, i didnt put much effort in fixing it.
i found a big thread a while ago where the problem is solved... i'll look for it
Ok a friend of mine brought me a i9305 lte to unlock as i have done several of my firends. so i did these steps
1. made a back up from QPST
2. Cf auto rooted
3. installed custom recovery
4. downgraded to 4.1.1
5. did the network unlock from service menu
i then put my sim card in but kept getting not registered on network. i tried setting service provider to auto and also selecting manually and it does the same but no longer asks for sim unlock code so i assume its now unlocked and has some other problem. i thought it may be a imei issue and checked but the imei is fully there and matches the one behind phone batter it also has the correct baseband.. i checked in the about phone menu and it says network unknown and out of service. thinking it may be a radio issue i proceeded to install a stock 4.3 that was originally on the phone from the network carrier it was originally locked to, to see if it was a radio problem but again get network unknown. so i restored the QPST backup over the stock 4.3 and it still says network unknown.
I am starting to think the phone may be blocked but not sure as i also hear its a common problem to lose imei and / or service during rooting. Am i missing something pbvious or fighting a losing battle lol..
one other thing of slight note is when i went to sammobile for the stock rom, when i was searching i searched for i9305 as thats whats on the sticker but it has a little badge on the back that says LTE which according to sammobile is the i9305N and i9350T.
thanks for taking the time to read this and the help you guys allways offer :good::good::good:
