After flashing Kyrillos Lite n Fast rom on a friend’s Galaxy Ace 2 (gt-i8160), the phone does not detect the sim card anymore. I tried different stock roms and kernels, which all flash and work fine, but the sim card remains undetected. The IMEI is gone, too. I cannot make calls or enter the network settings.
Do you have any idea how to repair this?
Try following the link on my sig! It may work on the gt i8160 also!!
Re: [Q] SIM card not detected
Try to change new sim card... maybe your simcard is broken...

Sorry, what do you mean by that? I have CWM installed. What should I do after unmounting /system ? What do you mean by preload? and how do I mount efs?
the efs folder is mounted.
Re: [Q] SIM card not detected
Generally, when you install Kyrillos, making necessary WIPE, read the installation instructions carefully!
. CWM6 Recovery
*- Go to mounts and storage
*- Mount: system, cache, data, preload (Be sure to mount your partitions or the installation is complete!)
After mounting should look like
unmount system
unmount cache
unmount data
unmount preload

Sorry, I didn’t make clear: I installed v5, not v7. I never tried to install JB, only GB. And I think there is no /preload folder in GB?
Re: [Q] SIM card not detected
Clearly, then just do not help you. I remember, too, put v. 5! But there were no problems!

For anybody who might get into the same situation: I solved the problem.
The Chinese phones, though seemingly similar in hardware, seem to have some difference, I don’t know what it is.
None of the stock / pre-rooted stock / custom roms and different kernels would let the phone detect any sim card, except for "I8160ZCLK3 / CHNLK3 China".
I found it via this site, which leads to a download list). It eventually leads to a hotfile URL.
Hope this helps! It definitely saved me 200 bucks.

Hi, i installed the rom succesfully with the CWM recovery suggested. But the phone is now not detecting the sim card. It says on the first boot that "Sim card not inserted. Please refer to the instructions that came with you device"

I have over 30 hours invested in trying to get this phone to work. I bought what I thought was a Eruopean version but it was in fact the HK version. I do not think there is a way around this. I am putting the original 2.3.6 back on and sending it back.
The phone is great. I have installed lots of ROMS in trying this. The hardware modem is simply not compatible with later firmwares.
Big Problem
Hello, I am a new user of Android. I have bought a Chinese android. Maximus MAX908. Chipset MTK6572. CPU Dual Core 1.0 GHz. GPU 3D GPU.
Though this isnt a branded phone, its not also a very rubbish phone. Today I've tried to flash a custom rom. Before this I have used a custom rom of Galaxy S4. I have rooted my phone and flash the rom through CWM.
"The problem is I can not start my phone now. Even I can not go to recovery mode either."
Please Help me

I solved the Sim and IMEI problem
I solve the problem by restoring NVRAM backup of my device with MTKdroid tool. Fortunately i backed up my NVRAM and when i see my phone does not recognize sim card and imei is also unknown, i decided to restore imei by using MVRAM backup of my device and restore it. Then i surprised to see that my sim issue is also resolve automatically, thanks to God. you can also try this for your device and if u don't have a NVRAM backup then try to store your IMEI on your box by using Mtkdroid tool i hope its helpful for others thnks

You must have flashed wrong preloader. Try to search for original ROM for your phone and flash it with SP Flash Tool using Format+Download option. Chinese phones can't get bricked unless hardware breaks down. I've flashed wrong preloader many times and i was still able to flash the right one by holding Vol- button before attaching the USB cable to phone. Good luck.

i tried two kernels, the one given in FXP149 and Fusion 4.0. The problem is this time i formatted my SD card, so i have all new files on my pc. I reinstalled the unrevoked usb drivers but that doesnt help too. My win7 shows the device as Android phone - Android ADB Interface, but doesnt want to mount the SD card.
Any advice how to fix this?
Update: I found an SD card adapted and managed to transfer the .zip files to the sd card. Now i get Status 7 error. I'm pretty sure its the right rom, FXP149 anzu (I have Arc S). I also tried FXP148, that previously worked great but now gives status 7 error too.
I have backup on my pc but a lot older one, because all other backups were on my sd card i just forgot to copy that folder in the rush to get the new rom.

As far as i've read, Status 7 is wrong kernel or rom. in my case i think i have both things right i just flashed FXP149 kernel and tried again, same result.
Update: And I get the same with FXP148 kernel and rom, that I'm pretty sure It was working without any problem previous

I have just successfully rooted my Xperia Arc and installed CWM recovery.
I was about to flash a new ROM so before that I factory reset (nothing went wrong) and format my sd card (it went wrong here)
At the Recovery, under mount and storage, i formatted everything, including the system :crying:
I thought it was something on the sd card, not the operating system :crying:
Now when I try to boot up the phone it just stuck at Sony logo
I have come so far just to screw it all up at the last step
Is there any where to install back the OS

Hi Just dowload any room from here put the sd car and install from the cwm .or try to recover from sony pc companion just do repair
Hi thanks for the quick reply
Hmm all my phone can do is stuck at Sony logo, nothing else
It is that bad, and for your info
It can't go into Recovery
My PC / Sony PC Companion is not able to detect it
Flash tool still can detect that it is connected
and by any ROM u mean custom ROM?
I have Speed ROM 8.0, not installed on my phone yet though
If I just install custom ROM I can get my phone back to life?
But first, I don't think I can install custom ROM / do anything when I can't do things I mentioned above
Download stock ICS and flash it using flashtool.
Thanks for the reply
Ok I will try that.
But how to flash a ROM using flash tool? It is possible? I have only used flash tool for firmware.
And all I can google is about how to flash a ROM using ROM Manager or Recovery.
Do you have link to any tutorial about this?
Edit:
Opps I found something about that.
Another question, is it ok to use any version of stock ICS?
I found Dovahkiin 1.2. Is it ok?
Or is Speed ROM 8.0 ok?

I recently learned to flash,
So I used TWRPV to flash coz i cant access the recovery mode becoz of rooting.
1.Flashed Slim Bean. Worked perfectly.
2.Try to flash jellybam. Got flashin failed.
3. Reflshed Slim Bean.
4. Tried to flash Miui rom. Again got error, after googling i found that i have to delete two lines from the script in miui rom with note++
I did that but not worked, then i myself checked the slimbean script, and deleted some more lines from miui script and flashed, still not worked.
5. I did same to jellybam. Then one of jellybam rom worked.
6. Now after reboot some times note 2 switch off itself when in pocket or in table. Or sometime while charging with big battery on screen with stuck tiny round circle. I have to remove the battery to switch on.
and i can't turn on bluetooth also USB not working. In pc device manager when i connect phone to pc via usb it shows CDC COMMUNICATION INTERFACE (7 times), and Com neon Suspend (1 Times)
7. Now using slimbean but problem is still there.
Any idea what happened to my n7100, is my phones efs corrupted, or soft/hard bricked,
I don't have any backups.
Can anybody please help me. I posted it here coz I can't find the same problem anywhere. There arevsimilars but they are different.
And bad English coz I'm Apatani.
Sorry for that.
My note 3 was SICK from some times (from 7 Months)
Some said it was EFS corruption. my problem was occurred because I flashed my N7100 with MIUI rom built for Galaxy S3.
My Bluetooth was not turning ON (Blank in bluetooth adress), Usb not workin with PC, turning of or Freeze while phone sleeps or auto lock.
Tried many things Flashed different Modem or Kernels, Flashed all of the custom roms available for N7100, Flashed Stock from SamMobile site.
and Lost hope... then I continued my daily life with my N7100 (using Red EYE sleep disabler)
But now today I already using Ditto Note 3 v.3.0 (Used v.1.0,v.2.0,)
today Flashed Ditto Note 3 v.3.1.1 with aroma
Selected everything in Aroma Inataller (Including Updated Modem)
then in First Boot my N7100 Freezed while i was entering my Wifi Pin First Device Setup
Waithed for more then 1/2 hour but still Freezed...
then i rebooted it with removing my N7100 Batteries
then again Boot and it Widened my eyes, my mouth was open, and i was Smilin...
My N7100 Bluetooth was turning ON, my USB is connecting to PC without any secret code for UART mode, my Phablets screen turned off, I waited for around half Hour and then i Pushed my Home Button and it respond and turned on the Screen.
Firstly your very brave to do this or your too Rich to afford a new device if you brick it .
Now firstly Please dont make any changes to the existing Rom that you have downloaded seeing other Rom scripts ,
Now before flashing any rom go trough the OP to understand what OP has mentioned about flashing.
Dont Refer to Google refer to ROM OP OR THREAD any question you have post it there so you will get quick response.

Download Stock ROM,
Flash it it Via Mobile Odin or PC ondin,
Once flash completes Boot into recovery and do a Factory Reset+User data ,this will wipe everything on your device memory .
and then tell which rom you want to flash ill guide on how to do it.

Actually, I think I found out what exactly happened to my note 2.
The ROM I tried to flash was for s3 (MIUIv5 I9300 Note 2 Edition 3.6.21 by @muchopoli83)
This ROM was flashed after removing the two lines from updater script, the assert lines.
But after flashing my phone didn't started so I changed the ROM.
So, what should I do. Is stock ROM still important.
If yes can u please give me the link.
I found one with pit file in xda but that link is not working
And some guys with similar problems are talking that every stock ROMs are not working for problems like this.

anybody any idea
Simply go to recovery wipe everything including format_system,
then choose any rom from N7100 development thread as your suitability .
and flash in recovery as per instructions given in OP
Then tell here what happened
looks like efs croupt no worries just flash stock rom from odin then root it with cf-root method
use triangle away to remove the flash counter and then reboot unroot from su app and ur good to go to service center
just tell them i updated this phone to latest from ota and it failed iam when it restarted there was no cellular

Do you have GSM network?
Flash Stock ROM via PC Odin v3.09 and use re-partition and Nand erase all with PIT file, Freset Autoreboot.
After flash complete everything must be ok.
I had the same problem few weeks ago. I also tried to flash alot of ROMs but same problem exist. found a solution to this problem yesterday this is what I did
1. Download leaked 4.3 it will take time because the file is 1.2gb
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2499794
2. After download flash it via Odin in pda. Make sure auto reboot and f.Reset time only have check.
3. If the flash fails, it's ok but make sure it already flashed the radio and modem.
4. Reboot again in download mode then flash Philz recovery
5. Reboot in recovery mode then flash slimbean rom or any rom you prefer.
6. Install gapps
7. Wipe cache and dalvik
8. Reboot and your ok now
I'm in slimrom build 2 now. Bluetooth is ok and no more reboot when phone sleeps after few seconds.
Hope this helps.

Hello!
I recently got a Note 2 (GT-N7105)
And for some silly reason wich even disappoints myself i wanted to overclock , well that didn't make sense i know but however i did it! and directly after i installed the required file (I don't remember wich one but it was for 1.8Ghz) after the installing my phone kept showing the boot logo , i tried to use my backup but even after restoring it didnt boot! I cleaned everything wich also cleaned my backup...
I been on it for about 7 hours now trying different roms , kernels , and every file i could find but nothing helps.
I now installed Cyanogenmod using CMW but even that bootloops.
The last thing i could notice is CMW showing me a E: failed to Mount /efs (Invalid argument) Wich makes me worry even more...
I honestly hope there are some good peaple who could help me with this... Finally got a great phone and by stupid mistakes i made it won't work anymore..
I don't care what rom gets on it , Even if its a hello kitty rom u won't hear me complain , If the phone works again i'll be happy!
Not sure if this helps but its a GT-N7105 , i know it had the newest android there was (4. something, i think it was 4.3)
Odin does see the device , My CMW (6.0.4.1) works and Download Mode works.
I hope anybody can help me!
In case you want to help me live wich would be awesome my skype is : chrishendriks92
If it gets fixed i will Offcourse place the solution here.
(The note is not a new one , its used and a few months old , worked 100% before my stupid decisions bricked it)
(so here's a small version)
-Every rom i tried will bootloop , It shows a different boot video/logo everytime tho
-It all happened after i tried a 2.8Ghz Overclock
-i get a EFS error in CMW
-Accidentily i deleted my backup but i don't mind whatever rom gets on it
-Download mode and CMW (6.0.4.1) works

Ok, so what I would do.
I would wipe data through CWM.
Download official ROM from sammobile.com and flash it through Odin.
I hope this will help to get the phone booted.
After that we will worry about imei recovery.

Try mskips toolkit from skipsoft.net. It has a recovery package that should do the trick. There is a thread on it on here but i think it's closed due to Microsoft signature issues

I'm afraid downloading/Flashing the rom didnt work.
ill get the T-Mobile screen , and then the samsung logo where it gets stuck , the install was completed tho so no errors whatsoever
This is a picture link s30.postimg.org/8l0bgrxa8/image.jpg
Would be amazing if you could help me out with this because i can't choose ''Option 2'' right picture , it just won't take it.
I can install teamviewer or whatever programm you want
I have the same problem, I'm on 4.3 version and tried to downgrade to 4.1.1 and went back to 4.3, I formatted the system through twrp with NO OS INSTALLED to be sure it is totally cleaned but all the way, I still experiencing reboot issue.
At first I encountered unfortunately systemui has stopped, done rooting and fixing permission but still no luck.
One more thing, I already flashed pit file.
.
(Update , I tried anything i could but it didnt work out , its going to Samsung Support)

Flash right bootloader, then install fresh rom. Should be good to go.

You installed a kernel right? To over clock? First flash new bootloader, then flash stock kernel, then again flash stock rom, do not let the device boot up before you have done all three.

I tried Agni pure kernel and followed your instructions but no avail,I think there is problem with the board,because when I wipe, the SuperSu also erased.

I said to install stock kernel not custom kernel, and after wipe when you install stock rom you will loose root and also loose all data and apps from previous rom anyway.

yup I already did that,I flashed stock kernel from http://opensource.samsung.com/.I know reflashing stock rom will delete everything including root.
What I mean is when Im rooted and tried to wipe the phone, SuperSu also deleted.Im wondering that I have a corrupted emmc, It seems that it is not mounted correctly, although I tried to flash a pit file already.

So my sister recently bought a used phone running 4.1.2 and it started rebooting on its own for some reason or another. I am able to get into twrp 2.3.1.1 recovery and do a factory reset but the reboot loop problem still remains. I tried the other options in the wipe menu like wiping the internal storage but it says its unable to mount /data. Even in the Mount Menu i am unable to check the Mount data box.
I've also got the hurricane v4 rom downloaded but i am unable to install it for some reason. Is it because i am unable to mount the /data? Would a Format data work to install the hurricane rom? I've tried to download the 4.3 stock rom but not successful due to such a crappy internet connection. Luckily the hurricane v4 rom that i got from here supported the resume download function.

I also have note 2 with this strange reboot problem.
The OS doesn't matter at all for me (check that also).
If the problem will still remain, then I must say that it's a hardware malfunction.
Mine has it too, and does some random reboots at any time, specially when it has been used for longer time.

I have philz touch 6.26.6 clockworkmod v 6.0.4.8 installed. I go into the Wipe data/factory reset to do a factory reset but seems like it hangs and reboots. Seems like its unable to mount and format /data still. Can someone shed some light on this?

Go to mounts and storage and click on format/system, format/cache, format/preload , format/data and format/data and data/media (/sdcard)<--- this will format your internal storage,so back up if you have anything saved on it..NOTE: Do NOT format storage/sdcard1 cause this is your external sd card if you accidentally do format it you will lose all the contents on your sd card.If you still want to format your external sd card by this way make sure you have a card reader handy to be able to transfer the downloaded ROM and other contents on your sd card.
Now go back to main menu and click on advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache ,once again go back to main menu and click on wipe cache partition and go ahead and wipe it.At the very end go back to main menu and click on wipe data/factory reset and choose Clean to install a New ROM.Done.You have successfully performed all the wipes.Now you can go ahead and flash the ROM.

Okay you need to reflash modem I'm in phone so can't link you up with hurricane modem tool but in my signature it says JellyKat FAQ click on that and in there you'll see hurricane modem changer tool link , go visit that thread , download version 5, and flash it recovery , aroma install will open and choose one of the newer modems and see if that fixes your no sim card detected issue *fingers crossed *

Umm I had this issue once and flashing one of the modems solved my issue , you might have to restore efs backup look for Dr.Ketan thread on how to restore efs if modems don't work out

None of the modems worked. I've deleted the /system and /data and all the steps you gave me and restored back to 4.1.2 with twrp and the darnedest thing happened. no reboot loop, only thing is that there still is no service. The GCI screen shows up when booting (my cell phone service) . i was pretty sure the efs was checked when i backed it up a few days ago. I think i dun goofed on this one.
EDIT: Looking at the 4.1.2 backed up rom on my computer, there is a efs.ext4.win.md5 and a efs.ext4.win file on there.

Flashing stock also reflashes the modem, does it not?
So there is still the 4.3 stock ROM which he was not able to download so far, unfortunately.

Yes it does so if he manages to download it ,things should be easier for him.

I would rather try to fix the download issues or to get the file from somebody else instead of wasting time on flashing modem after modem.

So i finally got a premium link download on rapidgator and am downloading this stock rom atm. so its resumable (hooray!).
When done, i use the "PHONE" option in odin right? Im guessing installing the stock rom also re installs the stock recovery? Crossing my fingers (and toes lol) hoping this download finishes. If her phone doesnt work after all this i talked her into letting me buy it. It seems like a really nice phone. If she lets me buy it im thinking to get the Moga controller afterwards and installing some emulators and games, it'll be a nice little portable system.
SOLVED
Finally got the stock 4.3 download and installed and now the phone is working. Thanks everyone who contributed to help.

By the way, tags are usually put in front of a thread's title
Nevermind, the main point is to tag it as solved :good:
