Nice post it would give us !! knowledge on how to update to newer version of android. And this also encourages me to share one piece of knowledge on rooting and upgrading to newer versions.
So I will also share steps to root sammy devices and upgrade to new frimware
-if you want to root, use google"cfroot name of your device" and ul get a .zip file with the same name of 11.22 mb.
-download odin v3.07 or any version of odin (it is the samsung's software flashing tool for its devices)
-turn off your device and wait till it vibrates, it indicates safe shutdown.
-hold volume down +power button and get into download mode.
-Open odin on windows and and wait till an indication of detection of your device is shown
-then unzip the cfroot.zip file and you will get a .tar file.
-in odin, click on pda and select the file u extracted and then start the flashing process.
Once done, it will reboot you device !!

So, I hope that this post will be helpful for the users that are planning to flash new ROM in there sammy device !!

As I made this procedure
1 . We swing archive with an insertion (in my case it is I9300XXEMG4 SER)
2 . We create the folder on a disk D, we open archive with tar.md5 insertion the WinRAR program
3 . We take files from archive in the created folder and we delete modem.bin
4 . We swing TAR_MD5_PACKAGER and we unpack in a disk C root
5 . The taken firmware files in the TAR_MD5_PACKAGER/parts folder also we click a batnik (TAR_MD5_PACKAGER.bat)
6 . Ready insertion we copy from the TAR_MD5_PACKAGER/packager folder
7 . We swing Odin3 v.1.85 and we stitch
Result the insertion is updated by IMEI and S/N , with a network of problems isn't present

For me not worked.
My i9300 work ok in 4.0.4, but after did the update as shown, my IMEI is null/null.
I flashed the 4.0.4 modem after 4.3 without modem, but the result is the same.

KhalIman · 12-17-2013, 09:52

after i did this, IMEI goes null and also BaseBand, so i downgrade and all is back. this tricks doesn't work.

kabbo36 · 03-08-2014, 05:37

BesfortShalaTec · 03-17-2014, 20:45

Downgrading from 4.3 to 4.2.1 and the No Network Issue...

It is not EFS issue...
It is all because of different Modem issue.. all you need to do is just install a clean Stock ROM from Sammobies firmwares and Install the patched modem... you are done..

So here is the solution:
1. Download your desired Stock ROM for your Country from Sammobile...
Link sammobiles firmwares
2. Install the ROM via Odin
3. Root it and Install your favorite recovery.
4. Install the Patched MG4 Modem Zip in Recovery Mode.

You are done....
This problem is all about MODEM version, so I don't think if EFS tricks are involved here.....
