I could not say for sure because I don't know what process you used, but I Would say you just may need to downlaod the Factory TAR file using oden into your phone. Just make sure you Don't use the PIT file when you do it. Look in the Android Development section for the Tar file and the process of using Oden.
thanks for the reply.. did try loading just the tar files using odin but still no progress... another info, when i turn on the phone the notification drop-down does show the name of the network and says no service.. does that ring a bell ??
Cracked it !!
turns out that the software factory reset isn't all that effective and i tried the the hard reset by entering the code *2767*3855#... it worked like a charm and this time I had the carrier signal !!!!

Good to hear you resolved your issue.
Hi, is having a corrupted IMEI prohibits you from getting network signal? I have weird IMEI characters (not numbers) after unlocking SGS4G and I cannot get any netwrok signal. Hope you can advise me what to do or check. I have exactly the sasme IMEI with this post.

Hi Jager555, do you think it would be wise to try it out. I am not that confident to try it out because we have a different IMEI situation and I am afraid to brick another phone (bricjed captivate before). That is why I am waiting for someone to update the toher thread because that thread has the same IMEI that I have. If I won't be bricking my phone, then I would more than happy to try it out.
did you try disabling wifi calling? Same thing happened to me
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
i cant guarantee that you wont brick your phone. its just something to try. as ricky said, disable the wifi and see if that helps, but if not, your phone doesnt work either way. im not sure if you can flash another rom and see if that helps too.
the thread i posted said "I recently used one of the unlocking tools that are available on the Android market, and one of them screwed up my IMEI so badly (it contained garbage characters, not just numbers)"
i figure thats the problem you have. if you dont want to try it, bump this thread and try to get a response from the smarter people. lol. im still a noob, good luck! i hope you get it fixed soon.
PLEASE need urgent help my camera and wifi are not working after rooting the device

Hi all , just joined xda-developers but i spend straight 14 hours trying to fix this DAMM photon q yesterday
all i got in the end is a normal boot after following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001108
BUT at the startup , the screen comes like for a millisecond and then this " starting services" logo doesn't go at all...it just continues forever
any help would be appreciate .
Can you explain what your setup is, and exactly what you've done to get where you are?
For example, you were bootloader official unlocked, on CWM and asa-10, etc.
Thanks.

Still doesn't tell me what you've done, what state the phone is actually in, etc.
I thought my question was pretty straightforward. Unless you provide more detail, I don't know how anyone will be able to help you.
Is this a stolen device? Why is it not qualified for the official unlock? Either way, how does that play into what's wrong with the device?
Did you have custom recovery on it? Give some details!!!

i think i am a noob at explaining things but let me try again...i don't know the exact history of this phone , my friend gave it to me yesterday and its not stolen ... he paid his insurance every month but then who know what he did... i have no idea why its not qaulified for the official unlock probably because he bought a new phone on the same line so the company deactivated this phone..
ok so when i got the phone yesterday , the bootlocker logo appeared and i was unable to do anything ...then i installed CWMrecovery and it was successfull and then i installed every possible rom available online as far as i know but same thing happened with all of them ..... successfully installed , it reboots and little square thing saying " starting services..." and then it does not go away at all ... but at the same time i am able to bring the top menu ..and go to the settings and everything from there but i can't go to home screen since ...it is black and is occupied by "starting services.."
so finally i came accross this thread for master reboot and i followed it ....i installed TWRrecovery and made backup and then restored a backup providers by that guy ... i flashed new stock recovery after that... so following his thread , he told that if all went successful ... it will return to original stock
and now i am at the same screen as previous... " starting serivces..." my friend told me he tired to root it and he messed up really bad ..so i believe there is still some old files in the internal storage from previous rom versions.... but i deleted everything......wiped, data facotry reset and then
installed a clean backup provided by the thread starter...... and everyone else had success except me ...
i hope i answered your questions if not .. i would aprreciate if you tell me what exactly you want to know ..... thanks
i also tired every US ROMS from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/asanti_c/list.php
and all of them showed " starting services.." after i installed them from sdcard using CWMrecovery.
we have full RSD lite backups now to restore a phone can be found in this thread

You have to extract the files and edit the xml file. And you use rsdlite on your pc phone connected thru usb to write it to the phone

Reactivate in Sprint? What do you mean? Only Sprint can tell you whether the phone can be activated or not. Call them. Not sure why you would even worry about that if it's not stolen.....

Flashing a ROM effectively writes over /system anyway, you need to do some reading to understand what you are actually doing. But basically you need to boot into bootloader and use fastboot not adb. Many tutorials exist so a search on xda will be all you need to so the rest.

now my device isnt charging and not booting up!!! am thinking of replacing it. is it psbl? coz i unlocked my bootloader but i have a 30 day replacement guarantee and my device isnt turning on now?? itz been 2 days since i bought it.
I would ask you to get it service centre to flash the system again, and PAY them the normal service charge. You can ask the service centre guy to install a new motherboard , because i think that will come with Memory and OS pre-installed.
I am not expert on this matters, suggest you to search deeply on XDA or wait for an Expert to answer otherwise; i have listed the options available to you.
You could also try leaving it on charger for a day to see if charging starts.
Since your whole memory is wiped clean, it basically a Bricked device.

Hello, I have rooted my Xperia C and It was 1st time that i rooted my phone , but after rooting it I found that it has become complicated for me to use rooted phone,as I am not having any knowledge what to do after rooting my phone. So I decide to unroot it, but I already deleted my some in-built apps without doing backup of them :crying:. I have tried every thing that I could do to bring my phone to stock and claim warranty , but I was not able to succeed in any method that I tried..
Following are the methods which I tried to reset my phone and to bring it to stock-
1- done factory reset - (not worked)
2- try to reset using PC Companion but now PC Companion is not detecting my phone
3- At the end I thought of fixing this issue using FLASH TOOL , I have the new Android 4.2.2 16.0.B.2.6 firmware.ftf update of Xperia C, but when I tried to install it using the flashtool, it also not working at all. When ever I starts flashing it getting abort again and again... :crying:
I am really confused what should I do now I tried every thing :crying: ...Please help me if any one can tell what I should do now???
I haven't unlock mu boot loader, I just rooted my phone and deleted some in-built apps now I unrooted it, so Should I go to service center to claim warranty ??? please help me and a very big thanks In advance.....

Root your phone definitely voids warranty and unrooting brings it back, only if the members of service center don't find that u have rooted your phone ...
and I want to sent my phone to service center so that I can find out that my my phone's warranty is still claimable or not. and if claimable they I can get my phone in way it was 1 day of purchase ...
And frankly saying I don't remember that which In-built software I delete when I rooted my phone, so please paste here all the apps which are in system folder, or tell me how can I transfer them in system folder again, Do I need to root my phone again.. thanks..

But, @chauhanjayc is absolutely Rite, Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and do customization reset is exactly the same of doing factory reset of your cell phone, as I have removed my some system apps so they are removed form the system of my phone, so factory rest or Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and do customization reset will not bring them back , but I appreciate your reply:fingers-crossed:

yap
matter is what is the condition of your phone
use this tools accordingly
now one major benefit of pc comp. is even if you are upgrading or repairing your phone it will keep you phone on until the software download finishes ,
where in sony update service will do ask you to connect you phone in flash mode so no way you can use your phone while software is downloading...
