Ok, first and foremost, don't just post an app telling people to flash it without saying exactly what the app does. What files does it modify/replace?

HI rehmankhan101
First of all i would like to say thankyou , the ariza patch works like a charm .
But off course i had to root the phone to apply the patch, this disabled the auto updates is there a way to overcome this problem without rooting the phone or buying expensive equipment like NsPro box etc.. ?
I was also thinking, i stay to correction don't know if this will work but , now that the patch is applied and phone is working fine is it possible to make a backup of the baseband ( modem ) and
flash it after flashing a stock firmware with Odin , will this work ? or the base band will get over written with the next auto update ?
i am glad that i have helped even a single person.......updating the phone is no problem u can download new updates for ur phone from sam mobile Link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9300&pcode=H3G#firmware but the problem is u have to root ur phone after flashing new farmware to install ariza patch......i dont think backup up modem will work havn't try it

Certainly no reason you cannot at least write the original modem and CSC down in case of requiring at a later date .

Don't mind him, he does that with every useful thread, troll as **** !!! Nice thread bro i'm gonna give it a shot since my S3 have this problem of signlal drop .
Ok guys knock it off. Posting a file without telling people what it does not only is not wise but will not do you any good to help people looking for a fix.
So it is always best practice when posting something like this to state what is in the zip file and what files it modifies.

zlendel with all due respect, @Theshawty is always being a trol and do anything to tarnish every valuable effort from devs especially if the thread was very helpful. i tried to report several times but ....no response . and as the good member that i am REALLY im gonna check the files in the zip package and give feedback on what modification it does to the phone or the radio since it's for signal drops.

Hi to All
This is a solution just for who has a Changed SN and No Network After The Updating the Phone firmware .
I Dont know what this Hassle is all about & why , The ariza Patch is a tool developed by a 25 years old
Ibrahım from gazıantep – Turkey.
He has experınce and knowladge on pc & Smartphone hardware , software ımage & securıty.
This patch patches the Baseband ( Modem ) & disables it from checking the serial Number of the device .
I had this problem after Flashing a Stock firmware using ODIN , after rebooting the phone will not register the sim on the provider network.
The Patch works 100% and will not harm your Phone .
Here are some Q and A .
Q: This patch is gonna clone my phone ?
A: No,it's gonna bring your network back.
Q: My imei number like 0000**** or 0049**** if i flash this patch it will work or it will bring my original imei number back ?
A: This patch is not about your EFS Folder it is just about network so it won't fix your imei number or bring your original imei number back.
Q: I will do these 2 ways step by step ? Do i have to flash offical firmware first and then flash custum rom ?
A: No,you can choose one of them this is your decision.
Q: Can this patch fix my SN ?
A: No it can't but it doesn't matter because you will always be current.
Q: How can i use it on stock rom ?
A: First change your kernel with CF-Root and follow the steps.
Q: After this operation i will update my phone ? Is it a certain solution ?
A: No after the each update you should flash my patch.
Q: I didn't wipe my daha cache etc. do i have to wipe ?
A: Super wipe will clean your system completely so it is doing everything but if you want to ensure you can do them again.
Q: I have a S3 which has a baseband XXALEF-XXLFB can i use your patch ?
A: I have made this patch for just flash my patch after the each installation. It works if your EFS folder is OK.

So... Tonught I was happily having a game on draw something with the mrs.. Then noticed a no entry looking sign where my signal was.. Took the sim out wiped it put it back in.. Same again.. Thort strange.. Must of crashed or something..
Anyways..
Did a factory reset. ( settings - privacy - factory reset)
This didnt work either nor did hard reset using the code..
Anyways.. Looked all over the internet and most forums said basically.. Warranty.. Send it back..
As i baught it second hand wasnt sure of wether i could so kept looking....
I then found this.. And my god it was a godsend. I was convinced my phone was dead..
If you have similar issues then follow this..

Are you sure busybox is installed/updated?
As someone said make sure your busybox is installed correctly.
My phone was as stange as hell.. I set up a lock screen before it all happened.. For some reason after a factory reset.. my lock screen showed up. But for some reason o could draw any dots and it would unlock it..
Also i had no imei.. No baseband. No bluetooth.. Wifi would work. But anything tondo with my gsm sim care would not work..
When using GS11_repair.. Skip the first tab and goto the repair tab. Do everything in order on that page.. The unlock part i didnt do as my phones the unlockes debranded firmware so didnt need it. I only did the first 2 steps and magically everything just came right..
Hope this mini guide helps.

Apparently the problem is your nv_data file is corrupt. Which is in or around your efs folder which has all the information about your phone [imei baseband etc]
backing up and restoring your efs and deleting the old nv_data file fixes the problem for apparently 9/10 gs2's.
MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR EFS.. 2 FILES SHOULD BE BACKED UP IN THIS PROCEDURE. IF I WAS YOU.. UPLOAD THESE 2 VERY IMPORTANT FILES TO YOUR DROP BOX OR WHATEVER SO YOU ALWAYS HAVE THEM SHOULD YOU NEED THEM.

This only works in few cases and you should not use gs_repair because it creates the efs filesystem with the incorrect parameters.
No idea mate.. All i know is it worked for me.. Device is fine now

Apparently theres other tools that do the same job. The info i posted was the only info i couls find when it happened to me so shared the info with anyone having the same issues.
I dont know what this software does. I didnt do all steps stated on GSII_Repair.. I backed up my efs then mounted it.. Didnt trust deleting anything and everthing was fine for me after a reboot. This was performed on GB stock 2.3.4rom
Actually did me a favour as was forced to root. Now running ICS so happy days lol

Provides :
1: Integrates Unbrick / Flash ROM / Root All-In-One.
2: Use the same protocol as ODIN, but 2nas is more user-friendly and easy-to-use.
3: Cloud based database to flash your android phone with correct files(ROM, etc)
4: Automatically download necessery files to flash, and check them with SHA1, it's safe for your phone.
5: Store all downloaded files in local disk, under a good directory structure, it's usefull when you have several phones.
Re: Cloud-based Android Flash Tools
So you are having people flash their phones over the internet? What if the net disconnects? I hope the service is free ....and is this service even necessary. Flashing roms sometimes ends up in problems and you have to flash again, isn't it better to just use Odin and have the roms on a pc?

just looked at the site, looking at the screenshot, it just looks like a pc app that downloads firmware from the clouds?
So not actually flashing over the net.

Hi, it' free .
and it downloads firmwares from cloud ,store in local disk and checks it's SHA. you can use the firmwares again and again without re-download.
Use the same protocol as ODIN, but 2nas is more user-friendly and easy-to-use.
alright.. how is it 'cloud'? Are you just using the word cloud as a synonym for 'internet'? There's nothing in the software that requires a 'cloud'..
Sorry, but just had to vent.

Unbrick failed
As mentioned before I couldn't install 2nas software on my company laptop, but in the meanwhile I borrowed one and tried the unbrick function.
Everything worked well till I started the installation after the download, so it failed straight away at the flashing of the boot.img, see attached screenshots.
Initial rom on my S3 was I9300XXLEF (Hong Kong) and I flashed Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I9300 Stock Firmware Collection I9300XXEMA2 after that it didn’t re-boot because of wrong ROM, if I try to get into recovery it shows the “Firmware upgrade encountered issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again” screen..

I asked polite and didn't expect that kind of profane reply w/o any substance apart personal bashing.

But, as I see, reading with understanding is beyond your abilities, instead, you are very keen to abuse someone.
Off topic question: are you abusing all peoples when you're unable to understand their question(e.g. your nanny is in bathroom)?

Some months ago, gf's galaxy y random rebooted and get stuck in a bootloop, she was just using the phone normally, it don't have root or something. she managed to get in stock recovery and wiped data. When the phone booted it lost all signal, no making phone calls, when she tries to call the phone says something like "Not registered in network", status bar says no service, I tried my own sim and also can't make or receive calls.
Imei is fine, when type *#06#* displays the correct value. Phone was factory unlocked, model is gt5360L.
I've been reading tutorials here, and other forums, but nothing has worked, the phone is now on cm 11.

Hello every one!!!!
i am not sure if i am posting this in the correct section, if not forgive me, but i am not sure where to post this..
SO... long story short: i went to service because i had to fix imei (which i still have to be done) so i went to pick up the phone not fixed (too expensive in that lab), and i found out there is a SERVICE FIRMWARE on it!!!
first thing i did was dumping it of course i am providing now links to it and to the kernel shipped along with..
ODIN FLASHABLE
RECOVERY FLASHABLE
note:
- both require a factory reset to start, if you do it from custom recovery you can skip format sdcard, but still need to wipe data
- odin flashable already is rooted and has su app installed by me, for the recovery one you can simply flash SuperSuUpdate.zip
most interesting stuffs are a permissive from stock kernel, there are some service apps, which unfortunately are not fixing my problem, and only allow to run tests basically, apart some really small edits to connection and usb or HW tests.. another interesting thing is that the firmware has a sort of AOSP base but need tons of work to have it fully functional.. F.e setting is "aosp" looking and works also on stock roms, but some part are FC because code is missing; launcher is basically useless, but is an "aosp" one as well
most interesting service apps are missing a connection to a tool (i believe) since it throws a popup saying :
Code:
[HMT] init failed
or
[HMT] not connected
anyone knows which could be? anyone familiar to this?
so in the end i am posting it just as general pourpose and cherrypicking of usefull apps, unless we can find what is missing so we could actually fix lots of issues!!!!

I really dunno because i had mine already tripped long before..! I think it should because they are not supposed to trip knox to fix it, but the selinux permissive kernel could give you troubles!!! Seriously !! Lots of thing may go wrong.. First of all is not out of the box compiled by samsung, but is repacked by me! So no chance it has original signature
You could try this app

Giving root permission and try some code using method 0 (root) to launch it ex 1234567890 could be usefull for you

You could try this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.shortcutmaster.lite
Giving root permission and try some code using method 0 (root) to launch it ex 1234567890 could be usefull for you

They dont trip knox because they would have flashed an engineering sboot to your device. you should look into dumping that if you have not updated it yet.

The thing is that when they flashed it on my device they have a compiled one with samsung original signature.. Mine is a repack so it doesn't have the original signature so it is likely that if you flash with odin you can end up with tripped knox, because bootloader doesn't read samsung sig and voids it

Regardless, Service firmwares always contain an engineering boot loader. as it allows them to flash what ever they need retaining the current knox state. it also unlocks the protected memory, and has a whole suite of debugging commands enabled for service utilities.
SO again i state if you have not updated this device since you got it back (eg, flashed a tar with a public sboot in it) you should consider dumping yours as its most likely an engineering one for the G920F.

I just received a new device. Here's what I found out.
I tried to use a kernel (by mistake) from another carrier and when you do this, there's Samsung software that recognizes that's not a Sprint Kernel and it locks up the device. That's what was told to me.
@Wuby986 Do you have any screenshots? I would like to see the aosp stuff that includes before I install it to my phone
Thanks

no sorry.. i don't have it anymore, and by now i don't have the possibility to flash it since i upgraded to 5.1.1
Hi after flashing a rom not on xda my phone's IMEI became erased. unfortunately the EFI backup that I had wouldn't fix either. I tried going back to stock using SmartSwitch emergency recovery. Still no fixes.
Please help my phone cannot use cellular service!
Any idea Im all ears. I tried various methods for older Galaxys around the xda, none worked.
I know my IMEI and S/N how can I fix it.
Please help!!!!

With all do respect.... I don't think he was bashing anyone....he was just saying he flashed a ROM that wasn't posted to XDA...more than likely there wasn't any other option to ask for help elsewhere since XDA is very helpful with responses from developers and others.
I was wondering if anyone that is overseas (outside america) could share an EFI backup partition with me so I can fix my phone. Maybe that would fix.
keep watching the echorom thread someone else had the issue as well.
I cant they banned me from seeing their forum when I reported the bug.
O I see. If something gets posted that might help I'll let you know. But 1 thing I saw already is trying to flash multiple times with Odin
It might not work the first time. Or the second... or the third. Try like 10 times in the mean time until someone can help. If all else fails there has to be a way to make a working imei again since you know it anyway

It was not because of unlock. My phone was already unlocked. It happened after flashing a bad rom.

write stock rom
This happened to me before in a old Tmobile S3 (T999) I had only edge network...
It was a headache and I was only able to put it back working going to a store that had BOX for flashing and do it myself with their box
and rewrite my IMEI manually during flash, as they were not able to do it (more say didn't have patience) .
I dunno if there is a easier way to do it... but this was how I fixed mine back then. But one thing is true, I lost a lot of time back then trying to fix it and if it happens me now again I would do a quick search and if not quick solution, try to find a guy that owns a box as it will literally save you days and sleep. However there are excellent devs around so they might be able to help..

Would u have any suggestions on where I could go to fix?
Quick question. What csc is in your phone now? Have to tried changing it again with a new one or the one that was originally on it when you got it? Like a flashable zip? Cos it looks like somehow the one you used must corrupt something in the efs... which is bizzare

I went to local store that usually unlocks/fixes phones, but I had a friend connection around.. hence they allowed me to go inside and do it myself.
Try to search 1st around if there is a solution, as it might be... I can't remember how it happened to my phone, but I was flashing lots of ROM without a problem and then it happened for some reason. There is a reason for it, however I couldn't find it as my knowledge is limited. I do remember that I tried, stock, odin, kies, whatever... and nothing worked until I went to try with a BOX.
IF you can't find a quick solution try to search around physical stores that flash phones, as they usually have a BOX and probably they might pull the S7 image already for their box... try to search a friendly one and take the purchase papers with you as most are not very comfortable with anything that might involve IMEI if you odn't know anybody.

It was the German based CSC
G935FDBT1APC5
However I flashed back STOCK which has
G935FNZC1APAX
The bizzare thing is my phone appears to still get a signal, but emergency calls only. When I #06# It shows 00000000000000 for 2 MEIDs. Which is weird as I don't have a dual sim model. This is even after Odin stock, no root.

Fair enough, I still have the original purchase, I got it from overseas, receipt, and sticker still on the phone. Even the box. at the same time i was wondering if anyone overseas, (not in the usa) would be willing to backup EFS and PM me with a G935F because I could use that meid in the usa. I have no intentions of going overseas to Europe anytime soon but I might go abroad if its oceana or Asia.
