AT&T S3 IMEI fix - stuck on Edge
Hello,
I have a Galaxy S3 on AT&T. It is stuck on the Edge network.
I purchased the phone on eBay as a Christmas gift, and it is rooted and unlocked.
I went to the AT&T store to get a new sim. Even with the new sim, it is stuck on Edge.
I have checked the IMEI in the settings, and it matches the one behind the battery - (I can PM my IMEI if someone can help with this problem).
The device is originally for AT&T, with the following details:
Android ver: 4.3;
Baseband ver: I747UCUEMJB;
Kernel ver: 3.0.31-2024954, [email protected] #1, Thu Oct 31 01:05:53 KST 2013;
Build num: JSS15J.I747UCUEMJB;
Looking for an app to repair/fix this issue.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
bluegrassbandit

thank you,.
Fixed it!
Hello Everyone!
Thank you for the replies and suggestions.
I actually managed to fix the S3.
I found a good copy of a QCN file on the net, and used the NV Backup/Restore app to overwrite the existing file on the device.
BAM! Works perfectly.
Thanks again,

Hi,
I have upgraded Galaxy SIII released in Korea SKT using Samsung Kies. Model Name is SHV-E210S. I upgraed it with official JB update.
Baseband: E210SKSMB1
Build Number: JZ054K.E210SKSJMB7
IMEI number is proper: 35...............
But it says "No Service" and not displaying/detecting 3G/LTE network. Not possible to make call/messages.
checked network lock status by using: *#7465625#
Network Lock: OFF
Network subset lock: OFF
SP lock: OFF
CP lock: OFF
Whether patch(ARIZAPatch.apk - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601&page=31 ) works for SHV-E210S as well?
Do I have to flash new ROM for this?
Flashing new ROM will wipe IMEI?
Please help me to get network back in my device? Provide me some links pls.

I had a official Rom 4.4.4 with my samsung korean phone before, i flashed a custom rom then my IMEI-Null, Basband-UNKNOWN, No network. So i try to make it back, i flashed so many patch files according to tutorials on internet. finally my phone bricked i think. i couldnt open even custom recovery. Samsung kies didnt help too, how ever i could open download mode, So i flashed latest korean offical Rom" E210SKSUKNI3_E210SSKTKNI3_E210SKSUKNI3_HOME.tar.md5" using odin. so again i could switch on my phone, then i found my shv-e210s IMEI has changed to new one.my phone back side imei is another one and its original imei. when i insert SIM it show" no service" and network "Unknown" , when i remove SIM it show " limited service" and i can make emgency call simple, and it show some local network providers names, its mean my phone get signals without SIM card and can make emergency calls. Can anyone suggest a method to solve this . if this imei changed by flash files, so it should able to change back to original by anothe file right?
Did you try flashing the most recent stock ROM from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SHV-E210S/ ?
I used to root android phones with Odin, with original stock ROM; just wondering if there's a place where I can download the stock ROM for my phone so I can have it rooted in order to get rid of all those unwanted apps from carrier.
The exact model is Samsung Galaxy Ace II x from Bell Mobility(Canada); NOT virgin mobile
from the About device, it says GT-S7560M is the model number, on the box, it says GTS7560UWB; 4.0.4; baseband version S7560MVLALJ7; Kernel sersion 3.0.8-1149290, [email protected] #1, Wed Oct 24 19:19:13 KST 2012; Build number IMM76I.S7560MVLALJ7

Well I got it rooted, even though I used the tools provided and they caused more issues & problems thanks to the instructions provided. I couldn't find an answer to a few questions I have tho, so I'll ask as I go along. I'll also provide a complete & detailed account of which steps I took, the files I used (with live download & SamMobile links. I'm gonna have my 10 year old give my instructions a try & let him do it for me.This way I will definitely know that it's easy to understand & follow for anyone. Look for it here later today.

GT-I9100M - Unlocked & Rooted.....
GT-S7560M - Rooted - Unlock in progress....
Hi,
I attempted to put a stock rom back on the phone and then re-root.
I found a link for the stock rom whick matched my Build number and using ODIN it successfully installed.
Main issue I had previous was that I could not load into the Android recovery screen which I now can do.
When the phone booted up I was very surprised to see a "Orange mobile" splash screen and also the addition of loads of Orange Apps? Which I've now disabled. Could be A French ROM?
How can I get a Stock rom without any Mobile operator Bloatware and get rid of that Splash screen?
I don't understand most of the details related to my model number but it appears they have changed slightly.
Here's the list;
Model no. GT-N7100
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version N7100BVDMF2
Kernel version 3.031-107214 [email protected]#1
SMP PREEMPT Sat Jun1 12.22.20 KST 2013
Build number JZ054K.N7100XXDMF1
I have also downloaded the Samsung galaxy note2 toolkit but cannot find my model numbers as it's not shown within the ranges.
Build numbers available between DMA3 - DMC1. does that make a difference.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
If you want an unbranded stock Rom for your region, go to sammobile.com and grab the latest firmware for the n7100, region code united kingdom btu. The btu bit denotes its unbranded and for the UK.

Hello,
Orange is a french operator,here is a link for BTU(n7100XXDME6)[stock firmware]:http://hotfile.com/dl/229489883/6643261/BTU-N7100XXDME6-20130603102621.zip.html
Hope this help
Thanks
Thanks, I found it virtually straight away after creating my post last night.(as they say ,the informations out there, you just gotta know where to look!).I chose that one(French rom) on Sammobile as the build numbers where the same.! should of researched first
Thanks for the link.
I've just installed the stock ROM and all went well.
One issue or may not be is that when i go to About Device-Software update-check for updates and press nothin happens? Isn't it suppose to say Your device is already upto date?
Is there any links for a stable and most up to date version of Twrp recovery?
So Now i will try re-rooting again. I think I am going to try Twrp recovery after looking at a few forums.
Also I have seen people tap the Android version button(in About device) and the Jelly Bean wallpaper comes up but in my about device its all greyed out?
Anyway thanks again for the Help it was Greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks very much. All up and running now, now its time to re-root
hello everyone,
although i have been a frequent visitor for more than a year this is my first time posting on this site :fingers-crossed:
i have an international galaxy s3 that i just got back from samsung service (device was dead) , they deleted everything from my phone and restored it to its factory settings,
the thing is that my phone was rooted and now its not.
when i got my phone back i downloaded all the updates that showed up and now my phone characteristics are as follows.
model number GT-I9300
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version I9300XXEMG4
kernel version
3.0.31-1314436
[email protected] 108 # 1
SMP PREEMPT tue jul 16 20:28:36 KST 2013
Build number
JZO54K.I9300XXEMG4
is it possible to root it and install supersu??
if yes i would appreciate if anyone could send me the links to the roms .etc
thank you so much in advance
PS i tried framaroot but it failed
You need to look in the thread for your phone, this is for the Sprint version. I'm not familiar with anything for the international version so I won't be able to help.
Hi XDA,
I have a Canadian Note 2 SGH-i317m from Telus (Canadian carrier). Baseband = I317MVLALJ2. The phone has stock 4.1.1 and is unlocked. I'm thinking of upgrading the phone first to Kitkat (OTA) and then applying the custom AWS modem because I don't want to take a chance with a custom rom. I know you dial *#0808# instead of *#7284# for Kitkat, but my concerns are as follows:
I'm assuming version QPST 2.7 build 323 is compatible with kitkat......
1) Is the custom modem compatible with Kitkat (OTA)? The reason I ask this is because I heard the further the upgrade with Android, the greater the chance of the custom modem losing compatibility/function.
2) Is it possible to do a factory reset with a custom modem once it's installed? Will I lose the custom modem and gain the old one?
3) Is the QPST backup of original modem qcn enough to restore a lost IMEI (just in case), as compared to a Nandroid backup?
4) Will my baseband name be changed after procedure?
5) Is it true that you can't downgrade from official kitkat or is it just a rumor?
My apologies for the many questions but little info is found for kitkat. Too many conflicting responses.
Many thanks in Advance
