If you applied the rom. It means its kernel or rom is not compatible.. Flash something else. Or a new kernel..... And something every Samsung owner should know. BACK UP YOUR EFS FOLDER!! IF IT'S EVER 0499******* YOUR SCREWED

Hi itamarsea, have you tried checking settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks/access point names
check if your settings are stored for 3 network.
Or check settings/ about phone/ status/ IMEI
check that IMEI number is still the same.
re setting
imei-unknown
network-unknown
imei sv-unknown
phone no-unknown
Type
*#06*
in dialer and see what number comes up.
Also what firmware are you on, jv1?
Type in *#1234# for firmware info.
It could just be a corrupt install. Iv flashed 2.3 on my sgs with odin about 5 times and tried about 3 2.3 roms and iv had no problems (Other than some buggy memory handling)
pda xwjn1
phone unknown
csc unknown
2.3 is beta A greek word for unfinished .
Factory reset that fails
Flash different rom via Odin .
You started at step two of flashing i presume and failed to backup your efs folder .
jje
Same thing on my phone, I flashed one JPM firmware with odin and nothing, tried with gingerbread and nothing... any info would help. thnx in advanced
Hi,
I have the same issue: NO SIM CARD!
My phone is locked and today I wanted to try insert another sim card, just to see if the message: "Insert the unlock code..." appears. After this, I noticed it's not working, so I put back the original sim card and realized that I have no network and got this notification message: NO SIM CARD.
I checked the IMEI code and it's the same, any hints, tips?
Is there some kind of problem with my sim?
If anybody can help me, I'd be more than grateful.
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: I9000XXJPY
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 (Voodoo stable 5.4.1)
Build number: Darky's v9.3.XWJS5
As a few people mentioned before it's a beta rom so it contains bugs. This may be one of them. If your imei isn't a lot of 0 you probably won't have problem after they fix this bug

IMEI appears as unknown even after flashing darkys rom os a stock rom :S
I don't know how the Galaxy S stoores the imei, but my spica uses the efs partition for it, and this partition doesn't change when you reflash a rom (even if you used odin).
Sent from my GT-I5700 using XDA Premium App
EFS file may change after flashing a rom enough posts on here about it .
Rule one of flashing is to backup your efs folder .
Copy backed up efs to phone to fix
Probable fix as you have flashed custom roms is to use Odin and flash stock rom that may fix your efs .

Stock rom doesn't fix the efs. There is a guy at samdroid.net who can restore Spica's imei, maybe you should ask him if he is able to do it with your phone. Check out this url: http://forum.samdroid.net/f28/complete-imei-restore-how-1817/
Sorry, I found that I9000 is not supported.
theres a post about imei and pcode prblm check the forum,if u ave a backup of efs than ur lucky.usually if u screwed ur imei thts prblm m8.flash ur stock rom,get ur phone rooted,,there r good free apps for tht.download astro or root exp or lynda file manger.u can c a folder efs check tht out first.if u ave a backup of efs u can restore.for doubt pm.....cheeerz
Lost my IMEI flashed stock rom reset it .
jje

please help IMEI show as 004999010640000 since new rom

sadly I dont have backup of the files before flashing
I can access data, but I cannot make\ receive phone calls or messages.
please help as this is my only phone?
not sure if I can revert to an older rom, and which one to pick up.
I got mine on orange UK.
Are you saying that you don't know your IMEI?
1. check your invoice when you ordered the device (mine stated my IMEI).
2. login to orange uk website to manage your account and surf around, my IMEI was also listed in there
Or that you don't know how to change it?
1. What ROM are you running?
2. There is a secret code you can type into your dialer which will simultaneously do a factory reset and change your IMEI. Search the forums for this.
I remember reading somewhere on here that if you flash back to FroYo it will reinstate your IMEI number.
Perhaps use JPU 2.2.1
Hope it helps ;-)
flash with odin and done

Galaxy i9000 (korean) IMEI & Base band lost!

I got korean Galaxy s ,i flash it ,now i cant get calls ,because no network, (IMEI and base band is missing ) Please help me to fix it !
Restore your EFS backup, you did back it up didn't you? Or try flashing back to stock. Plenty of threads and info on restoring IMEI.
i don't know how to do it.please help me to get back my IEMI and Baseband
There are a lot of threads out there, with the same problem. You should have do some reading before you flash anything!! Because the first thing you have to do, is make a backup of your efs folder!!

I am not expert for diz ,but i install a new firmware for my phone ,after dat it's not worked.yesterday i send my phone to a one of phone repair shop .they fix my phone .IMEI is not shown .but phone is working well and it's detect to kies! there is a one problem after restart my phone automatically delete my text massages and contact every time....now im in dat case
i got the same problem, i had installed a new rom without backuped efs file. Now i lost imei and baseband. May someone could help me please
Imei / Baseband problem - Solution can be here!
I hade same problem. No baseband , no Imei.
I tried to flash all roms: 2.1 , 2.2, 2.3
Even Samsung service center tried. No way!
Solution:
I got all back when I flased to; DarkyRom black edition v 11 android 4.0.4 ICS:laugh:
For Korean Version, you should only Flash Korean ROM's found at PIT STOP link below, and to solve IMEI, baseband problems use M110S repair Kit, also same link below
I also would like to get an pm regarding restoring imei/baseband/efs. Mine is ok in stock but anything other I have to put it on charge to get baseband+imei+service but then I ll get random reboot and am back to square one.
I digged aroung my nv_data.bin in hex editor and found out my product code is Korean even though sticker under battery says it`s XEU. Does anyone know how much samsung charges to have it reflashed?

If your phone is Korean, it will have a TV and an Antenna on the right top corner, and in about Phone it will known as SHW M110S, If this is not present your unit is i9000 . All samsung phones are made in Korea and can be considered Korean But only the M110s and i9000B has a DMB TV + Radio , all others have Radio only.
So verify first your unit as M110S ROMS are NOT compatible with i9000
for IMEI problems, visit My Android Solutions, link below BUT IF your phone is M110S than visit PIT STOP, link below
Please guide me

No Way! unless something goes wrong in flashing process(which have very slim chances on that) your efs data safe... I think this guy got a STOLEN PHONE. Most of the thiefs do it because they dont want to get traced.. Its a scammy world. I seriously doubt that this guy is even from SRI LANKA

[Q] Help needed, stuck after updating firmware (emergency call)

Hi,
Well my device which is S5 mini g800f working fine, since I have changed the firmware which was old like build on july so I tried to installed latest, but now there is emergency call showing, also I have tried manually and automatically to register on the network but it says unable to register to the (---network). I did it coz my device was not showing LTE network. However my sim supports the 4g and was working on S4 i9505. I have searched on Google and look out many threads on XDA but no success until now.
The biggest mistake was I didn't looked the firmware which was already there and was running with 3g support. I have tried these EUR-G800FXXU1ANL1-20141226162921, SER-G800FXXU1ANG1-20140709112536, MAT-G800FXXU1ANI3-20141218172328. Then I have installed Custom Lollipop but no success was there too.
So now any pro's here who can understand my problem ? My imei is showing, is there any procedure where I can put the imei and it will let me know what was installed on stock :crying:
Sorry for being noobish..
Please any buddy give me suggestions that what should I do ? Or should I look in the specific section of XDA forums ?

Its is mentioned mate what I have written, I said my imei is showing that by dialing *#06# I can see it, because there is a problem where the efs folder corrupted or gone you cant see imei or imei appears to be in these digits 00000 especially by installing custom roms. Anyways my only motive is that I know the imei and how ever I can see it too, so is there any procedure where I can put the imei to the website and see what was installed on stock. Because I dont have the box so I dont know which firmware was there when I installed another rom to get LTE, because it was working properly as I said in my earlier post.
Problem is due the baseband I am pretty sure which is not matching, this is the reason because I cant connect to the network---error msg (Unable to connect).

The baseband firmware is included in the firmware packages that are available on sammobile (.tar.md5 files). If you flash the firmware package with Odin, also the baseband firmware (contained in modem.bin) will be flashed.
If you have problems with a newly flashed stock firmware that were not present with the original firmware it might be because of one of the following reasons:
You flashed the wrong firmware. I don't think that the version name of the original firmware is stored somewhere. Instead check sammobile for the correct one: select the correct phone model and your country. EUR, SER (for Russia), MAT are country codes, choose the correct one for your country, the search function on sammobile will help you with that. You can also try Kies for restoring the firmware. Maybe that is able to determine the correct firmware according to the IMEI or some other information stored on the phone.
Maybe your EFS partition was changed and corrupted. The EFS partition is the partition that contains the IMEI and other information like calibration files that are specific for your device. If any of the files in this partition is damaged, the phone might not behave correctly. If you flash another firmware the EFS partition normally is not changed.
Your hardware is defect.
I guess that you simply flashed the wrong ROM. Otherwise the problem will be hard to fix.

URGENT: Re-installed Stock Firmware (update-6.0.1) - NO NETWORK ACCESS

Hey, everyone, I need some help:
On my SM-920G, I re-installed stock 6.0.1 (last official update before 7.0) and, now, I don't have access to the network (says emergency calls only). IMEI and serial number are both intact. What can I do to regain access to my network? I know it's not a motherboard problem because it happened after flashing stock software. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
Thank you,
VinceLupe

Did you install the right firmware for your region? You should check that or flash right modem file. If all else fails use kies to restore phone to factory or flash a custom rom and check if everything works.

So, I actually had to have an IMEI change... Long story - but, my question now is: is it possible to return to stock (completely stock) and NOT lose my IMEI number? I've heard some people say, "yes," and O be heard some people say, "no." Is it possible?

I don't think there is any risk of losing IMEI if you flash stock with odin, but if you have root then firstly take an efs backup, just in case, efs is where your IMEI is stored.

If you have root then in the root folder you will find a folder called efs. Just copy it and save it to your SD card or your computer. If you have custom recovery then you can save it from the backup option but I guess that won't help much if you flash stock with odin then it will remove your custom recovery. There are also some apps on the play store but I never used them, I use the first method.

Yeah, I'm just on stock, so that won't work - but, now I have another issue:
So, here's what happened... I got my IMEI changed, and all was good. But, then I realized that my phone was rooted. I tried to flash magisk to have magisk installed, and then my phone wouldn't boot up. Afterwards, I flashed stock to restore official device status, but when I did so, I realized that my network wasn't working. My IMEI (clean IMEI) is still showing, but I DO NOT have any access to my network and can't search the web or anything. What could be the issue, and what is the easiest way to fix it?

Did you flash the correct firmware? The same region as it was when it was working? Flashing a stock rom from a different region sometimes causes this and you need to flash the right one or at least the 'modem' file of the right one to get it working. Or you could use Samsung Kies software to completely recover your phone to its original state when it was bought. Also, What do you mean by saying changed IMEI? Did it not show it correctly or got corrupted and you fixed it? or you changed it completely to a different one from the original?
If you have a good IMEI just call your provider and give them your IMEI and your sim card numbers.

CodeNameRedNeck,
So, I have a good IMEI number, but I cannot register the network service. It tells me "Emergency Calls Only" even though it shows a signal in the top right hand corner. Are you saying that I just need to call TIGO (I am in Bolivia) and register my IMEI number as well the SIM card numbers - or, could it be that there is an even deeper issue? Also, which SIM card numbers are you talking about? Thank you, my friend.

Mufrad,
I completely changed the IMEI to a clean one because, apparently, when I traded for the Note 5 (I am in Bolivia, and that's what people do here), the original IMEI was put on the blacklist. So, now I have a completely different IMEI that is clean (unreported), but I do not have any network access at all - furthermore, when I access the menu using *#0011#, it says "IMEI Status: NG" under IMEI Status. I'm not sure if it's a software problem? I have a friend looking at the phone, but I do not have any idea how it's going because he still hasn't been able to fix it.

When my son switched from an iphone to Android we had to call AT&T and give them those numbers before it worked. I had an Xperia phone that I had to do the same with. There are apps that can read your sim card number. It should also be printed on your sim card.
