Hi guys,
Fistly I want to congratulate for the awesome forum.
Well I am a noob and I do have a problem.
I've recently upgraded my Arc S with the official ICS (Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598072 ) using flashtool 0.7.0.0 and now I sometimes get an invalid SIM card message or SIM card no installed with the reboot option. I've also noticed that this only happens (or maybe it's just my impression) after installing an antivirus. (Happened with AVG pro - cracked and Lookout). Strangely I've compared my phone with a friends one and we do have everything the same (baseband, etc...) and It doesn't do that on his phone.
EDIT: It's not the antivirus. I've uninstalled and it's still happening.
Can you please help me?
Thanks in advance.
try a nandroid backup and then factory reset the phone.
or maybe you need to reapply the ROM-update.
Well I've restaured to factory settings but my hopes are not to high. Could it be a conflict between the carrier and the ICS firmware? It's All good for now but i doubt it's solved.

First of all, my i9103 turned into brick last month
Somehow I get into recovery mode,flash the stock rom 2.3.6 and wipe all the data
Since then, three-UK SIM card (which only works with 3G) isn't working anymore...
After rebooting for a number of times,I did get it working and make a call ONCE but it doesn't work after that
I sent an email to Samsung and they mentioned : Please be advised that the issue reported with the handset indicates that it may need a software reset, or re-flashing of the firmware, in order for it to operate normally again.
1. Is there anyway to make sure the hardware is working?
2. Should I just try re-flashing the stock rom by myself?
Thanks!
try flashing stock xwla4 rom, in that rom have only 3g network and also its a official 3 branded rom, it should work.

I flashed the Hong Kong version stock rom, and it should be same as it's original one.
Suppose I won't need to do the re-partition thing, hence the data inside won't be affected even if I flash another rom?
Do you think it is a software problem?
Hk rom also works with 3g so now after flashing u should be not facing any prob with 3g network, if u see any prob try wiping cache and dalvik cache. (Hk rom and austria rom both r based on 2.3.6 but there are some changes in these two fws, but it should work fine with any network)
while flashing on odin, DO NO CHECK RE-PATTITION.
flashing a rom doesnt wipes ur data and apps unless u wipe data from cwm or other way.

What does wipe cache actually do?
I wiped all data but not cache last month to fix my bricked phone

the problem of unable to connect to 3G network.
Most likely to be a software problem?

Cant tell surely that its a software prob, if after flashing a stock rom and u still face prob in getting 3g network than could be hardware issue to.
Have u tried flashing stock xwla4?

Hello everyone,
I just joined this forum and i need some help.
I've got a very wierd problem with my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 GT-P3110 model.
Android: ver. 4.1.2
So the story behind my tablet is that my dad bought it when he working in another country,when he came back he told me that he had a broken galaxy tab 2 and he asked me to try to fix it,the problem he reported was that the tablet sometimes restarts,alot of programs have crashes and the wierdest thing is that,when I turn it off and then turn on the device (or simply restart it) the system is restored to some earlier state, this includes:
1. Apps I've deleted are still installed.
2. Widgets or app shortcuts on 'home' pages are still on their old place though I've rearranged them.
3. Same with wallpapers.
4. Same with settings.
So i tried the following:
1. Factory reset + cache clean. Even though it is supposed to be a full system wipe, it doesn't work.
2. Reinstalling a Stock ROM via ODIN. Doesn't work either and it takes about an hour to do...it says it was successful but it doesn't change anything in the tablet.
Also there is a notice in android recovery, which states:
did not match sized '/system/csc/common/system/csc/feature.xml' (no data available)
This device wasn't rooted.
So i you would ask you guys for some help,thanks.

My line of thought is that if you do root it, you can format the system partition which would more than likely fix this issue. But like I said, more than likely, there's no guarantee because it might be a hardware issue. Have you considered sending it in for repair? Since it's not rooted they would do it. If you don't care to send it in and are just trying stuff to see if you can get it working again, then rooting it wouldn't hurt anything. But that's your choice.

OK, so here's where just rooting won't help. You have two options: 1) Find the stock ROM at Samsung and have it on your SD card. Or 2) choose another ROM. Whichever you choose is up to you. You're going to have to format your system in the custom recovery, by doing this your tab is wiped of all info including the stock ROM. If you format system you won't be able to boot into your tab without flashing another ROM after. If I'm repeating stuff you know, I apologize. You'll need the ROM you choose on your external sd card, because you'll want to completely format everything (except your ext sd). If you know all this, try it out and see if it helps. If you want to learn more and the steps, PM me, I'll help as much as I can!

Hi, i'm facing the same issue here. Then I've try to root the phone but failed. Can help me too Sir?
For now it can't repaired, It,s known as emmc brickbug, find the xda forum thru Playstore emmc brickbug check. In Indonesia there is website that claim can repair it by replacing the emmc chip/internal memory, but it's not proven yet, since no body in our Galaxy Tab 2 facebook group has confirmed it. More than 15 people in the group has reported this bug, and the only way to fix it is by replacing the mainboard in Samsung Service Center. I also have replaced my wife Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 mainboard with the same case. In Indonesia the cost is about US$100

Any updates to this problem or is this any unfixable situation. what about side load? been trying for 7 months now to fix this and nothing works... nothing at all
A new tablet will fix this issue. Seems like the only solution.

This error is caused due to damage of internal memory , the solution is replace the mainboard , which is very expensive

Hey guys... I recently encountered a problem with my nexus 5. Suddenly my phone lost signal and it won't receive any more signal.I was on the latest version of PA on 4.4.2 ...... Now I factory reset my phone and it's stuck on phone setup... What do I do?? I'll try flashing back to stock later and I'll see if it's fixed... Also, before factory resetting my phone, I checked my IMEI and it isnt gone.... It was still there.. Strange... Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, I don't have a nandroid backup....

Guys... Returning to stock didn't do anything... Still the same problem... Now I'm stuck in setting up the phone since it shows that my sim is inserted and it's trying to activate the sim... But it stays there forever ... I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the sim holder... When I tried removing the SIM card for the phone, it failed to eject my SIM card... Now I have to find a way to get my sim out... When I use the pin, it only opens 1/8.. It's too small to fit anything in it... What do I do?? Running out of ideas...
I could give my phone for repair but I live in Dubai and I don't think there are any service centers here...

I'd suggest flashing factory and unrooting to see if that works and if it doesn't send it to be fixed
