you edited the e970 modem? to combine it with the nexus??

Did you try changing language under the language and input settings? I'm not certain it will fix it but worth a try.

Hi

Thanks fr the suggestion however I am not really sure if this is the right thing to be using based on what I have stated - for example, the version of ROMS I have already tried flashing.

I read over in [REF] IMEI / EFS - Know this stuff (i9300) - including "no network" about this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2393289) which stated the following

My Serial number hasn't gone to 0000. It is different to the serial number that CM10 uses... but it isn't 0000.

My understanding is that CM10, and the ROMS I have tried are EFS V2 ROMS (since they use the new Modem Driver). Therefore this could possible make things worse?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mojonx0droid:
serious a problem If you conducted a downgrade. the CM rom not change the modem, maybe that's why after I install a CM even you have signal. maybe your problem is you do not sign up with any modem or modem change causes something weird that makes you lose the signal.

JellyYogurt: Sorry I am confused then, because people were stating in many threads that some people have possible screwed up their EFS - and my understanding is that the new Modem is what upgrades the EFS not the ROM. (also not sure why there was !!!! not sure it was required, since I am asking for help in the HELP and TROUBLESHOOTING section of this forum)

I might be wrong, but this is kinda what I am reading on the threads in the ROMs about people who are having No Network issues also.

I have tried to use that plugin however it doesn't work (always downloading) so I am going to look for the patch they are talking about and try to run that.

mojonx0droid: I haven't done a downgrade - I have used CM10, and that has worked fine. Then I tried the two roms I have suggested, and both have had the same issue where it won't find the network anymore. I can revert back to CM10 and it works fine again.

Also not sure what you mean by Signing up to any modem changes? As stated, my Modem appears to have updated already, and I have also tried using the Modem's that are included in the ROMs supplied.

CM10 is working fine, it is only the ROMs I have tried on here which are having the issues.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j_dee:
Hey mate,

Are your really certain with that? I have a similar problem, messed up my EFS partition and lost my EFSv1 Backup files, but at least I could successfully restore the EFSv2 files. Unfortunately I did not Backup my i9300's original EFS state.

Now I cannot unlock the SIM card anymore when running AOSP-based roms und when booting with no SIM card inside there's a strange serial number.

A few days ago I was starting to think if AOSP-based roms aren't compatible with EFSv2 (yet?). It would be good to know if this actually is the problem.

You don't know a way to convert EFSv2 files back to EFSv1, do you?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
In fact I think you have just hit my problem....

As stated the whole reason I have gone custom ROM is due to the fact that Samsung update failed to update on my phone (flashed okay, but all applications afterwards were giving FC, including TouchWiz, etc, etc. Did factory resets, the works, but nothing worked.)

However, after that CM10 worked fine, but everything here hasn't worked so far.

Could it be ... maybe. that the original Samsung update upgraded the EFS to V2.

Is there a way for me to tell if EFS is on V2 or V1?

If it is V2 - then I know the problem, and then I will just have to use Custom Roms which support V2 (which my understanding is CM10 and CM11 - but I might be wrong).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j_dee:
There's an app called GalaxSim Unlock. Download it from the play store and start it (needs root).

If it tells you your phone is updated to a new system not supported yet it should be EFSv2.

Search XDA for EFS repair... You should find a giant topic that might help you. Unfortunately it didn't work for me anymore...

And by the way, CM is an AOSP-based rom so it will only work with EFSv1. If you have lost your EFSv1 you can run Samsung original roms, Samsung leaked roms and Samsung-based custom roms...

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
Thanks you J_Dee

This is it - the Samsung Update Over The Air upgraded the EFS to V2, this is why I am having issues with the AOSP on here which are not upgraded to V2 EFS.

And if CM is an AOSP based Rom how come CM10 works fine? (In fact I have just reflashed back to CM10 and it is working fine - and confirmed that GalaxSim is giving the same Device updated Error)

So it appears CM10 is using EFS V2???

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
Okay - then I am even more confused - why does CM10 work fine - however so far none of the other ones I have used work?

I would continue to use CM10 - however all the Samsung Software has now disappeared... S-NOTE for example - ones I was using.

I am thinking of giving SentinelROM v6.00 a try - since it was based off the CM11 Code, however, that still doesn't give the Samsung software again. Also looking for EFS repair stuff to see if I can work anything out there.

I am thinking if u flashed back to 4.1.2 then ota back to 4.3 if tat will work and fix ur problems
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
Hi and thanks.

Sorry - but I need to confirm something before I do this.

I have read in a few places that one way to bugger up the EFS is to revert back to old V1 and this would possibly corrupt it.

Which is why I haven't tried to reflash back to the original 4.1.2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
If u backed up ur efs v1, when u go back to 4.1.2, restore it and its alright but I dun feel the need as u go back to 4.1.2 is to ota to 4.3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
I Jelly - sorry I wasn't really 100% sure what you meant there, but let me confirm your comment, and also clear up some things as I don't think you are fully understanding the issue I am facing.

1) I didn't do the update on my phone originally planned - the Samsung update came OTA to my phone through Samsung Update system. There is no option to backup your EFS through that - since it is supposed to be tested and working - which as Google shows, is not the case as a lot of people are having issues with the S3 4.3 update. So therefore, the only backup of my EFS was after I updated to CM10 since the phone was no longer usable after the Samsung Update (FC on everything - even on Touch Wiz).

2) What I am understanding from your comment above is you feel going backwards to 4.1.3 will be fine, because right afterwards I will be OTA to 4.3. I have a couple of concerns doing that however. Will this work with the IMEI being corrupt, because if the EFS is on V2, but 4.1.3 will not be able to read it, I understand that the IMEI will be corrupt (you will get that 0049 number)

Also, there is a couple of posts I have read that state going backwards will corrupt the EFS, and you won't be able to fix it with just a flash of a newer ROM.

3) Going to Sammy OTA 4.3 is what broke my phone to start with, so I am pretty sure that getting the OTA again is going to present me with the same issue as before, (that if, the EFS isn't corrupted because I reverted back to 4.1.3).

Thank you for your suggestions right now, but I am not sure they are really going in the direction I am hoping for. I have had a look at EFS repair areas but they are all so far stating that you need a backup of your original EFS - which is kinda the problem - as not all of us did backups because OTA doesn't do it.

So, what I am looking for is a way to fix my EFS manually, then I can decide to go back to Sammy 4.1.3, or if desire custom ROM, OR - if there is the Samsung S3 Version Applications for CM10 - I have tried a couple of others I have found on the web, but they all FC.

I don't want to seem ungrateful, I really do thank you for being the one who is offering up suggestions. Just wanted to explain why I don't feel I can do the one you have suggested so far. But if my feelings above are unfounded, please let me know.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldendawn:
Hi,

Don't worry about this anymore - I have found that ArchiDroid V1.7.4.1 uses the V2 ROM, and it includes a bloatware pack which should allow me to add some of the functionality I am missing.

When I try to change tha language on the pphone pad nothing happens, it always returns to English.

Any one can help?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
try changing the PhonePad T9 language with the drop-down box, and OK that dialog - then use a task manager to switch back to the app you're typing in. So don't OK that second dialog (the main SIP dialog). I had this happen a few times as well - I think the above 'solved' it.. soft reboot and it permanently stuck on 'Dutch'. Switched back to English now though ;)

Alternatively, I'm sure there's a registry entry for it somewhere.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gepol:
Thanks but nope, it still does insist on english :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
alrighty... registry, then... give it a try...

HKLM\Software\HTC\Intellipad\Languages = N (DWORD decimal)
Where N =
0 = English
1 = German
2 = French
3 = Italian
4 = Spanish
5 = Portuguese
6 = Czech
8 = Dutch
17 = Turkish

Your device *may* have other languages and/or other codes. It's easy to check what it get set to if you have a util to switch tasks: adjust the registry, go to the SIP settings and click the Options button. If it's not the one you wanted, close the Options dialog. Adjust registry, switch back to SIP settings, click the Options button. If it's not the one you wanted, etc.

Good luck :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gepol:
whatever I do, it switches back to 0 = English :x
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
no idea :o

you could try in reverse as well... i.e. click the Options button, change the language in the drop-down, and click OK on that dialog (and ONLY THAT DIALOG). Now check the registry - again, use a task switcher or something. Make sure to refresh if your registry editor needs a refresh (PHM does). See if the correct value is set in the registry. If it is, press and hold the power button until you get the message about shutting down. Choose yes. Then wait a second or two for it to boot down, and turn it back on. With any luck, it will have stuck now. If not, I'm completely out of ideas :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gepol:
Been there done than, still insists :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
one step at a time, then....

when you change the language drop-down selection for the Phone Pad SIP, does the registry value at least change?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gepol:
Nope :?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
and are you making sure that you refresh the view ? e.g. when using PHM regedit

If so - uhh.. no idea, maybe it's setting it somewhere else on your device, but I wouldn't have the foggiest where :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gepol:
Yes, it's OK though I will use the normal keyboard till I find a solution. Thanks a lot :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:

Hey Guys...

I need your help once. Yesterday I had tried the TWRP to dub 2.6.3.2.

I have TWRP 2.6.3.3 flashed with flashify. Had it then restarted and then got an error. Then the phone but the screen was black but was on. I waited until the battery was down. The phone started again. But the recovery will be broken. I have re-flashed with 2.6.3.2 flashify but not started out the new TWRP. Have afraid that it crashes again. Would also make the TWRP 2.6.3.3 flash with the auto method. The question is if I can do just now so that?

Or is there something wrong? Or the TWRP 2.6.3.2 is again repaired?

My Phone D802..

Can someone help me?

I9500 Specifics

I9500 Specific repo Download :

--You have to download required repository for I9500.

- For example, CM11 you will need following local manifests, as given Here

- I think this is the standard manifests you will need for I9500 for any and all ROM.

- Go to your working directory and press ctrl+H and you will find a folder named .repo

- Go to .repo folder and create a folder name local_manifests.

- In local_manifests folder create a blank document named roomservice.xml/local_manifests.xml and copy following code inside it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_device_samsung_i9500" path="device/samsung/i9500" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410" path="kernel/samsung/exynos5410" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos5410" path="hardware/samsung_slsi/exynos5410" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos" path="hardware/samsung_slsi/exynos" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos5-insignal" path="hardware/samsung_slsi/exynos5-insignal" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="intervigilium/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_openmax" path="hardware/samsung_slsi/openmax" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_SamsungServiceMode" path="packages/apps/SamsungServiceMode" remote="github" revision="cm-11.0" />
</manifest>

Than you have to sync repo again

repo sync

For CM11 this is all what you need and you can go to the post 3 for next process, For any other ROMs you have to edit some files as below :

1. Change in device/samsung/i9500 at local repo

For reference you can go to Here as reference and look what I have changed and do according to your build.

Normally u have to change all the makefiles like I have changed cm.mk to mokee.mk under device/samsung/i9500

Look at here, and change according to your repo source

Second file you have to change is dependencies if needed, If you have put local_manifests.xml/roomservice.xml and sync it than you will not need it.

Just double check that you have all the dependency repos otherwise build will fail.

Last in device/samsung/i9500 change vendorsetup.sh

Look at Here and change according to your repo source

2. Change in vendor/ at local repo

This will depend on different ROMs and Sources according to build needs, So if you want me to give you what to change post here with vendor source on github and I will modify it for you or I will help you do that.

Now go to the post 3 for further explanation on compiling process..
[Galaxy S 4 General] x10forevers:
Compiling of ROM

Run following commands one by one

cd Working_Directory
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch

Select the number of combo according to your vendorsetup.sh file.

Than run following command

make bacon
or
make otapackage

This will take a while for compiling and all the process, once it will finish successfully, you will find your ROM under, Working_Directory/out/target/product/i9500/

How to Improve your build process using ccache ?

Go to your home directory and press ctrl+H and edit .bashrc

Add folloeing line at the end of the text file

export USE_CCACHE=1

Than run following commands one by one.

The suggested cache size is 50-100G. (This is size in GB)

export USE_CCACHE=1
export CCACHE_DIR=~/.ccache
prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G
