does anyone know how to fix this ?...
thank you, and sorry for my poor english
The lte is off by default on cm10 you need to change your network mode to lte/gsm and choose att lte APN.

note: now im running high on demand rom, cuz i needed touchwiz to recover my IMEI
Hello. I just bought a note 2 that was locked to videotron. (sgh-t889v) I managed to unlock it, and got it working on fido. But as i suspected, all i get is hspa+. I would like some help on how to get LTE to work. I'm assuming I need to flash a rogers modem since rogers and fido share the same lte network. I just can't for the life of me, find any info anywhere. Can anyone help?
STOP.
There are some things that are still being worked out here.
It is possible you won't be able to go back to the T889V modem after flashing any other modem, and IMEI corruption is a likely occurance.
In the meantime, could you make a proper NV items and IMEI backup following these two threads?
[TOOL/GUIDE] Full NV Backup and Restore [SIMPLE] [08-03-2012]
[WARNING! + GUIDE] Backup and Restore IMEI / NV Data Procedure for GT-I9305
From the text file backup made with the NV_reader_writer tool, could you remove item 550 (that's your IMEI, which I have no business in knowing), and forward the remainder to me or post it here? Thanks in advance.
I've managed to get LTE working on my T889V with the I317M modem, but it wasn't without some trouble and I get bootloops if I try to revert to the T889V modem.
Another poster here is stuck on the T889 modem, and until I sent him a T-Mobile T889 NV backup his phone was only capable of 2G GSM, rendering it unusable with his Wind Mobile SIM card.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll see what I can do in regards to your request. But it will have to be tomorrow
Wait did that person fix the problem with only getting 2g using the NV backup? I'm stuck on 2g also. If this helped please send me the NV backup as well.
I'm stuck using the t889 modem. As all other modems give me a unknown baseband and unknown imei. Along with a bootloop.

here is the full NV backup you requested. sorry about the delay! hope I did everything right lol, first time doing that.
Looks all good to me. Now to do some more research and testing...
I put my IMEI back in the file, wrote it all, rebooted. No problems, HSPA and LTE still functional.
Rebooted to download mode and reflashed the T889V modem *still* bootloops, weird.
I'll make a nandroid and try with clean user data.
Merci beaucoup!

How did you flash a I317 radio on a t889 in the first place anyway? I don't quote understand, but did you delete your imei to make it work?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I modified another Note 2 modem recovery zip (I think it was for the T889, or maybe the T889V) to put in the I317M modem instead.
Flashing that corrupted my IMEI.
Hello dspkeff, it's nice to see your post here, and let me breakdown what I have done to make the T889V work on the Fido 4G network by flashing the i317M modem and I'd like to ask you about the how to connect the phone to read/write the NV items.
First of all, my phone now is bricked because the IMEI number is gone (shows 0), but yes, I did get it working, not with the stock ROM, with the Jedi X 7.2 instead.
The time when I noticed my mobile data was gone was after flashing another custom kernel. I don't know if it has anything to do with the kernel or just because of flashing the modem. I did get 4G access and I tested the speed and the H+ icon was changed to 4G instead. And then I decided to try out the custom kernel, and then the data was gone after reboot.
So a lot of videos suggested that flashing the stock ROM will fix everything, but not in our cases here, because the T889V will stuck in bootloop when flashing the stock ROM... and that not only me, there are some other people on the forum who are experiencing the exact same problem.
Now we are stuck here, I've been thinking a lot, the only way I can get the IMEI back is to do the IMEI injection by using the NV reader/writer program such as QPST, or NV-items reader/writer, but I couldn't get them to even connect to my phone. That is actually the reason I'm PMing you because I saw that you provided the NV backup of the T889V! If you can read the phone, I think there is a way to write to it, and then I can preform an IMEI injection, maybe it can unbrick my phone!
Could you kindly tell me how you backup the NV-items please please? I really don't wanna lose 700 bugs lol, thanks soooo much!

Which part of the modem did you modify? Would you mind posting your modified modem?
I noticed that my T889 isn't accepting Rogers and AT&T modems -- Whenever I flash them, my baseband in settings would say "Unknown".
I modified the updater zip, the modem file is straight from the stock Odin file.

I cannot get them to connect to my phone either and have the same issue. I can boot by using CWM to mount and then fixing permissions but no baseband, SIM card recognition or IMEI.
it was bootlooping for me and IMEI corruption from flashing a t889 ROM on a t889v (which worked before a number of times). I made sure the flashcounter said zero and warrantied it with Samsung. Even Samsung couldn't fix it and gave me a brand new one.
Can only get it to 1 not zero.
could you provide the i317m modem you have used

IMEI vanishes when you flash a PIT that sets the partition sizes wrong and the IMEI gets masked inside the partition. Technically its still there but the /system can't see it. You can get it back but its not easy. First you have to flash a stock full restore with PIT then you have to master reset the device thru the dialer menus, then you need qpst/cdma ws on a sprint version to locate the IMEI and replace it with the correct value if needed. Sometimes when it becomes hidden it only shows all 0's when you restore it until you go into the NV partition and actually re write the missing values

I flashed my GS3 to boost mobile. Long story short, I used a boost evodesign4g as a donor, I changed the correct values to get it activated, but I also changed the IMEI with DFS to match the evo design4g (never thinking to back up my original gs3 imei let alone write it down:crying:). I figured out at a much later date that I never needed to change my IMEI to match the evo design. Now I am switching over to voyager mobile as they allow byod sprint devices, so I can have lte. BUT ONE HUGE PROBLEM, Currently my GS3 has the wrong IMEI.... I need to recover my original sprint GS3 IMEI as it is linked in the sprint database to my meid and ICCID for LTE activation. Yes I have checked the obvious, I searched the forums found nothing for my situation, it’s not on the white sticker on the back I don't have the original box anymore because if I did I would not need to ask for help...I figure it might be similar to recovering a Verizon GS3 IMEI, Maybe the original is hidden in one of the NV items?. So does anyone know how to recover the original factory set IMEI for a SPRINT GS3??? Is there a way to calculate it from the ICCID number?
Thank you to all who reply! I’m really in a bind here and need some help or guidance.

I tried that and I used the IMEI on the back of my phone under the battery and it still has me on edge no 4g or lte and I know I'm in a 4g lte area
Try removing the SIM card, then dialing *#2263# to see if your phone's band is set to automatic.

I used the method mentioned by drock to successfully get my IMEI back (with LTE). I also had some issues with signal strength but I somehow managed to fix it, however I don't recall exactly how.
You can try:
1. To wait (maybe an hour or so), sometimes it can take time for the network, do a few reboots.
2. To delete the current LTE APN and enter the APN settings in manually, reboot.
Go back to the thread you were linked to and read post 3. There are instructions on how to regain data beyond edge/2g

Hello,
Unfortunately, I'm having the same problem and have been unsuccessful at finding the right forum . After unrooting my Galaxy SGH-T999, I lost service "no service." I also have the circle with the line crossing it, only WiFi is working; Baseband version, Network, Mobile network type, as well as the IMEI appear as unkown. Please help me or re direct me with the link, I have tried everything and nothing.
It's actually not in our section. But with a simple Google search:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997
Looks like I'll be adding this to the FAQ.
More help please
Thanks for the quick response; however, what is it that I need to do to get back service. Make a backup, restore, or inject imei? Also, i'm having trouble understanding the thread. Is it to much to ask for to give me a little guidance of what exactly is it that I have to do. I'll appreciated it a lot.

I'd ask about what you don't understand in the thread about restoring IMEI.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Well, to be honest I don't know where to even start.
1. I downloaded QPST program
2. AT&T and TMO Phones (or any variant thereof)... I don't know if this applies to my process.
Option1:Using the stock dialer dial *#7284#.... When I do that my phone says: Mobile network not available.
Option 2: Stock ROM w/ unsecured kernal flash this file by drothenberger and geek HERE!... lost there
Install QuickShortcutMaker... don't know where from
Open it and type IOT in the search box... don't know what that is.
Click on the entry that says IOTHiddenMenu / IOTHiddenMenu / com.android.hiddenmenu/com.android.hiddenmenu.IOTHiddenMenu
Click OK..... ???
3. The Following Steps Applies to all phones!
Put phone into RMNET + DM + MODEM mode... what do those abbreviation mean?
IMEI Injection:
If you have lost your IMEI and did not have a backup made this is how PureMotive and I were able to get his IMEI restored.
Open RF NV Item Manager from the bin folder found in Program Files folder/Qualcomm/QPST (RF NV Manager is no longer accessible from the
(open RF and NV?)
start menu or from inside QPST Configuration).
Click on Setting menu in RF NV Item Manager and select Comport.
Select your phone from the list of ports and click ok.
Go to File menu and select Read From Phone.
You will get a list of NV items and their values from your phone.
Look for item NV_UE_IMEI_I it will be item number 550 you can do a search for it using the search.
I'm so upset, disappointed, and mad at myself. I just bought this phone and I already broke it. I been trying to fix it all day and no luck. Please if anyone could make this pain for me. I don't understand the abbreviations or where it is that I need to start.
Thank you

If you're competent enough to root and flash a ROM, you're competent enough to follow Peoplearmy's guide to restoring your 4G. If not, then you you need to go back use Triangle Away to get rid of the flash counter and then Odin back to a factory TouchWiz ROM to erase your evidence of tampering with the phone.
Follow the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997. Just remember since people have been making this mistake, you're not done when you inject your IMEI.
