[Q] Can't connect to Wimax

OK, I know there are other threads about this, but when I read them I feel like it's for people that messed up other things that they shouldn't have, and I don't believe I'm in that group. Let's start with some basics:
- I have never used a NANDROID backup that wasn't from my own phone
- I ran grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0 and I still have my keys
- The only radio I've ever flashed was from Cyanogen based on the instructions from his wiki, and I don't think that messes anything up
I've tried flashing Fresh and Warm ROMs from both Clockwork and Amon, and I've tried both more than once, just in case there was an error. I turn 4G on and it says it's scanning, but nothing connects. I happen to know that I'm about 3 blocks from a Wimax tower, so there's no way I wouldn't be getting a signal. I've read through several other pages that people refer to but none of them seem to apply. It's always for people who don't have keys or who are having problems different from my own.
I apologize in advance if I missed something, and I know I could probably read all night, but I would really appreciate if someone could tell me what I can try to get my 4G radio working again.
Thanks!
UPDATE: OK, I was ready to go back to stock in utter desperation to see if something would fix itself, but I FINALLY got it to work. Here are the steps to follow if anyone else encounters this problem...
1) Make sure 4G is off
2) Open Root Explorer and go into /data/misc/wimax and rename the field there (xxxxxxxxxx.tree.xml where the xxx... is your 4G MAC address) to add .old at the end
3) Go into Settings -> System Updates -> Update profile
4) When that is complete, reset the phone (this may not be necessary, but... why not?)
5) Now turn on 4G and it should recreate the .xml file and be running smoothly
I had heard the tip about deleting the XML file, but nobody told me about updating the profile or anything along with that step. Hope this helps.
UPDATE 2: Now it's not working again. It was just sitting there, working fine one minute, and now it doesn't work again.

FYI, I also have checked to see that my MAC address is correct, and I recreated my tree.xml file. My MAC address is just fine, but still no connectivity. My coworker with an EVO right next to me gets 4G here, so I know I should have a signal.

I just updated my profile (can't believe I didn't think of that before), but that didn't work either. I can't find anything that is in error to fix!!!

What radio did you flash? And not sure if it has anything to do with wimax. Did you try to reflash the stock radio 2.15?

EDIT: Nevermind... it worked for a bit, I even used some data across that network, and now it's borked again.
I flashed the radio that is on this page, but on second view, I think that's just to upgrade people that were on a lower version of the radio. GRRR!!!! Should I try reflashing the stock radio? Would that help?

I keep getting it to turn back on by mixtures of deleting that .xml file and resetting my profile, but it absolutely will not stay. Any ideas?

I am experiencing this issue and have been searching for a week trying to find a solution if you guys found one or if anyone knows of one please please please let me know!!

What am I missing?!?!
Hopefully someone can help me here. My problem is I cannot connect to wimax. So I tried to check to see what wimax version I have so I tried using Android Terminal Emulator as someone else posted. Well I did and it turns out that I am missing something...not sure what though. Here is a screen shot of the Emulator.

after flashed a N7100 Rom to my I317M, I got unknown baseband and IMEI

I got my galaxy note ii from Canada Rogers network just yesterday. In order to add more language option, I falshed a N7100 ROM to my I317M. After that I got no signal on the phone, and I check into the 'about device' option, I see unknown baseband, IMEI, network and so on. I had backup the efs file, but when I trying to flash back to my phone, just nothing happen.
I did research on that, find out that to flash a stock ROM maybe have a chance to fix the problem. however, I can not find a Rogers stock ROM anywhere, so I am writing to ask if someone can help me about to fix the phone. Thanks very much.

Consider yourself LUCKY you don't have a brick right now. There is a reason there are different threads on here for each of the galaxy note 2 variants. There was talk about being able to flash roms of one variant on to another but I don't think much lead way was made. My suggestion to you is, 1. find a stock i317M rom and flash it using pc odin and then stick only to the thread corresponding to the variant you have to flash custom roms!

If you hunt around in the different variants development forums, you'll see that it's possible to flash roms from one variant to another. The catch is, if the variants have different radios (LTE/HSPA vs just HSPA), you'll lose all cell functions, which is exactly what happened to the OP. That's probably not a trade-off most people are willing to make, but I'm hopeful this is an easy issue for devs to overcome.

Have fun, and if you ever feel the need to flash an inteenational rom again make sure to grab an n7105 rom.. its the lte version
Also have you tried with out repartition ticked

and to nandroid your current ROM so you have something to go back on.

1. Phone calls seem to work through the network just fine but data does not. this means no mobile internet etc do i need to download a virgin mobile software pack or something?
2. Camera is funky in a few ways, crashes on load most times. Colors are way off. Again is there a software solution?
Any helps is appreciated
Cheers

Virgin Mobile MMS fix-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2199489
Also make sure you have the FL24 modem installed (Settings/About Phone/Baseband to check which is installed)
As for the camera, which one are you using? Camera or Focal?

Hey Bilgerry,
Thanks for the response I installed the FL24 modem just fine here's the link should anyone need it in the future under ICS - Modems
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764210
I then installed the VM fix in the link so now I'm back on track with both MMS and (Voicemail which I hadn't even thought of yet).
However I'm still having trouble with the internet on my phone data plan I've tried 3 different browsers all fail to connect.
As for the camera, both Focal and Camera software are crashing heavily.

Try flashing this 3g fix for alternative carriers. I always use it for CM and it's universal. https://db.tt/zKeL0ffq

Dang it, no luck with that fix. I flashed it twice and got no response either time from my data source. If this is the only fix, whats the usual procedure with a flashed phone do you just have to wait until someone gets a fix out there?

Check the md5sum of your ROM zip compared to the one on the download page, if they don't match you have a bad download. I'm thinking this is probably your problem.

So I looked up md5sum but am not sure what it is or how to check it, can you elaborate? Is there a programme I need? You mentioned I may have a bad download so is that an issue with the link that was posted or is there a way to fix the md5sum so that I can download it from that link and get a working copy.
Bare with me I'm a noob.

Download md5sum Checker from the Play Store, it's how you tell if the file you downloaded is the same as the one the dev uploaded. If your md5sum doesn't match you'll need to redownload until it does. That it's why it's recommended you download onto a PC.

The first files I downloaded were all onto a PC first then onto the Galaxy S2. I've attached a screenshot of the md5 checker just to make sure I'm using it right. When I get home tonight I'll try download a batch of the files and see if I can get 1 to hit. I also tried downloading the file from another source and install but no luck.

You've got the first part right, now the dev or download site should provide an md5 to compare that to, the one in the pic below is an example, it's the download page to my ROM. Notice the md5 in the middle? That is what you're comparing your file to.

IMEI is 0 -- ODIN restore?

Sadly, it seems my IMEI has been set to zero.
I can still make calls and text, but my data is on Edge network only.
I've been doing some searching and reading (by some I mean a lot) and I guess I'm getting a little confused in it all.
Would using ODIN to reset my phone to stock fix the IMEI?
I have the IMEI on a sticker on the phone, could TMobile reset the IMEI for me?
Thanks in advance.

Swap it if you have insurance. If not search xda for fix.

Yes Odin will fix the Issue. Please choose correct firmware to flash via Odin.

Thanks for the response.
Trying to confirm I get the RIGHT rom for my device.
Went to sammobile.com/firmwares/
Looking at all the options for SGH-T999, do I have to made basebands to what I have now (T999UVDLJA) which is dated Oct 2012, or is that something that gets "updated" if I apply the latest rom (March 2014)?

Depends on what you had before all these problems. You must choose that same version otherwise you may hard brick the phone.

*sigh*
And I suppose there's no way to know that? I don't have a back up or anything...
Is there anyway to determine?
Thanks for your help and direction thus far!

Oh Sure. There are other ways to determine. If possible post a photo of the download screen. Otherwise type out exactly what you see when the phone is in download mode.

I'm assuming that is the info you were looking for?

Yes that's what I needed. I suggest please use UVDMD5 Version of Root66 to flash via Odin.

Excellent.
So follow directions and get files from here?: http://www.androidayos.com/2013/05/...y-bean-without-binary-flash-counter-increase/

Well. Yes. I'd direct you to the Thread here under Android Development.

Yeap. The link I posted actually takes you back to the link you provided.
Both bookmarked.
I hope to do this tonight.
If I understand this correctly, this should flash my phone back to stock with my valid IMEI
Using this Route66 I will have root on the phone and should then be able to do a CM install if I choose?

Yes and yes.
If that is your desire, then while you are in Odin, flash a custom Recovery such as TWRP or CWM as well.

... I will have to research on how to do that too then.
First concern is getting the IMEI back so that I can actually USE the phone with data -- regardless if it's CM or stock OS.

As the UVDMD5 will have correct modem, hopefully that will restore IMEI. Otherwise we may have to see what happens.

hmmm sort of seems to have worked... stuck at the "SAMSUNG" screen though.
Reading other links says I should have cleared cache before doing?

Hmmm cleared cache.
Did factory reset.
Still stuck at pulsating "SAMSUNG" logo...

Ok got into phone... ugh is stock ROM just painful. Who designs these things?!?!
Sadly, IMEI is still set at 0
this doesn't seem to have worked

ARGGGHHHH Are you serious? Googling now, but this looks much more complicated compares to Odin
Can't TMobile just restore the IMEI if I take it to one of their stores?

Just received the warranty replacment for Tmo Note 3

Ok i'll keep this simple. I just got the tmobile note 3 replacement. And now I want to transfer everything over.
But first please point me with links and directions to how to do this quickest easiest and fool proof.
I'm not sure what firmware this replacement will have if its the latest NF1 when i boot i up with tmobile
Tell me there is a simple way to give it root and more importantly change the recovery to TWRP latest version.
I'm hoping there is a 1 step solution/windows app that will do all that. I just need tha done. THen I will just swap the microsd into the replacement and load the entire image stored on the card to the new phone. Is it really that simple? please let me know what I'm missing.
Don't tell me the NF1 carrier upgraded devices can't be unlocked. please i have no idea how to do this, don't just point me into the right threads, I have a disability of sifting thru info i am legally disabled. Pleaes help me make this transition as easy as possible.
My deepest thanks.
Hpe to hear from as many knowledgable feedback soon for me to get this done so i can send the defective back to tmobile.

Do you mind me asking what is wrong with your phone?
You can always Odin back the replacement phone to ne6 and make sure you do the bootloader too, and then use towelroot to reroot. Then just use titanium backup to back up your stuff from your old phone (assuming you already have root) then restore on the new phone.

Is it normal for everything to be NF except the baseband is still stuck at the old one. Is this normal? Is there a 900T NF1 bootloader? I heard nf1 HAS A NEW bootloader, but i can't flash it up to it. I've attached a screetshot.
Also, I CANT TETHER FOR FREE NO MORE! On my old note 3 with any ROM that doesn't do the tmobile tether turn on check, I can use tether unlimited by connecting to a proxy on my computer, but now for osme reason, it always redirects me to an upsell page just like on tmobile's official ROMs is there a new way around it? When I connect to the note 3 AP on my computer it automatically says theres "limited connectivity" please help, I want it the way of how it was on my note 3, does it have to do with the new radio? or is it something else? thanks.
