Hello Forum,
I've had the pleasure to brick my 889v and had it restored with a T-Mobile ROM. Long story short, i've lost my IMEI number.
I've tried reflashing the stock(Tmobile) rom but no luck.
I've tried the modem fix but still nothing. The signal bars are there but they eventually dissapear saying the phone is not registered on the network and for good reason since there is no IMEI.
Can someone PLEASE post the full T889v rom as i know there are a few users who have it?
I've tried msg'ing a couple of people with no luck.
I'm really stuck and would appreciate some help please.
This worked for me:
First you need to download the stock ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957209
Then make sure you wipe data then flash the ROM. Then download the flashable Modem.bin from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957380 then flash in CWM like you flash the stock rom.
Hope this helps!

haha.. Shawn, i didn't realize this was you!! Also sent ya a PM! let me know how it goes mate!
Addis
LOL yeah it's still me crying about this.
Only thing i can think of now is that all these roms and fixes are for the t889 and not specifically for the t889v.
The model number in the phone shows up as a T889 when it's actually the T889v. This all happened when i got over exicted and flashed the t-mobile rom
I'm so stressed out about this!! I'm having to use my wife's blackberry for now.... :X
Anyone?
Just need a full nandroid rom for the 889v.
Please someone help me before i go back to blackberry..

Shawn,
I am sorry to hear that you still have issues until now. I have the same model as you. I dont know how to back up my phone to what you need. Do you know how to do it? Where are you located? I am downtown Toronto by night and mississauaga by day. Let me know if you want to meet up live and help me do that for you.

Now isnt T889V same as T889 hardware wise? How was T889V got bricked by flashing T-mobile ROM?
The phone now has proper t889v rom restored. Problem was that imei went 0 and no data. The imei was re-injected qpst, but only edge 2 - no 3g or H+ data.
Any help or guidance would be a million bucks right now.
Thank you in advance.

Have u put the correct apn in the system
I too am having the same problems with my Mobilicity Samsung Galaxy Note II...
I think like most newbies I tried to flash a custom rom on my brand New T889v and of course as luck would have it I ****ed it up... I think royally...
I've tried flashing back the stock rom through odin but I get stuck in a boot loop.. (every time it gets to the Samsung logo) and trust me I kept it on all day till it drained my battery just doing that....
No when I flash a custom rom, I get to boot up and but I can't register on the network... I just see a circle with a line through it we,here my signal bars should be. When I go to network setup it says I can't access network services as sim card is not present. (the sim card is in there...)
SOME ONE... PLEASE HELP ME...

Nandroid backup
I'm wondering whether sending a NANDROID backup of my device would expose my saved passwords from chrome, wifi passwords, and all kinds of aother goodies to the person who restores it?

Did you ever root your phone?
Use a custom bootloader?
if not then its 0 & not modified!
Also you check from the ( about Device - under Status)
i believe Knox feature is pain in the neck!
Volume down + Home button + Power button to enter download mode...
There is a number on top if its 0 you have nothing to worry.
I had wifi issues, I restored my IMEI folder to solve network issues when I faced it!
are you living in Lebanon ?
Imei correct, but corrupt efs folder, how to fix?
Friends I tell them what happened to me! I have a galaxy note N7100 2 and started to install a rom amending the efs folder (something you did not know) as a result I change the imei to 0049xxxxx and good after spending almost a week reading forums got a coconut breaking my solusion not if it was luck or what but it achieves that put me again imei assassin's flashing the rom. When installing did not give a efs backup and install it all, this rom gives you the option to put the kernel that you want and the modem, I am from Venezuela and trying to install the kernel branded the same rom but I chose the 3rd bottom-up modem. All fine, put me back my imei now had the problem of the signal, it sends me ariza and accommodation. Now a question, if I have signal when reviewing my efs folder is corrupt? I want to go back to have that repaired folder because I can not flash another rom and would stay stuck in this rom, having it bad I would present the same principle failures. If anyone knows how to fix that folder I would appreciate very gusto.Y if anyone has my problem and has the same model you have, this mas say I'll help you with pleasure.

the status is custom .. knox warranty void is 1 ... my device is now rooted
Install a custom rom...
Good luck! Why stick with sammy official rom anyways?
I believe your phone is SIM unlocked, right?
If so, you might have your solution with flashing the right modem/baseband for your country (since flashing a custom ROM will leave it untouched).
You will find a thread on xda with last ones you can install with recovery.
If not, grab a stock ROM, extract the modem and flash it with Odin.
Good luck!

Hi everybody,
I'm totally new in this flashing world and I was messing around with my new Xperia Z1 Compact trying to get Kit Kat installed because when I bought the phone it came with JB 4.3. I flashed Latest KitKat Nordic 14.3.A.0.757 unbranded, and everything worked like a charm until I discovered that I lost 4G connection (It only connects to 3G). I went to settings to select network, and LTE is checked.
I was reading about this matter and it seems that nordic ROM doesn't support LTE Band 7 (2600Mhz) which is the band in my carrier. I tried flashing Central Europe Rom and Global rom for journalists found here in the forums. None of them seems to support my LTE band. I want to know if there is any way to recover 4G changing any setting or if you know a link to any generic ROM compatible with LTE Band 7 (2600Mhz), or if there is any way to revert to my original Jellybean 4.3 ROM using PC Companion or Sony Update Service. Any help will be very apreciated.
Hello,
I am using the Generic UK .757 on a BAND4 LTE network in Canada.
you have checked off the first thing to do from the checklist..
second is to make sure your APN settings are correct.
All these are simple, but if still no luck, some labour is in order.
Need to do full wipe and clean re-install
IF you are not rooted, just launch Sony PC companion with the phone NOT CONNECTED and do a repair. It should by default take you to KK
At the time of flashing, You probably had the wrong boxes checked and unchecked in the WIPE and Exclude boxes..
I'll try the two options
Thanks guys for the responses.
First I'll try to flask UK ROM to see if finally I get kitkat working on my phone. If this doesn't work I'll take the second option with PC Companion to restore the original ROM. I'll post the results.
It seems this rom doesn't work for me

Hi Phil,
I found UK rom in this forum ver. .681 and flashed it, then I downloaded OTA update to .757. So far the problem remains. I discovered that I was wrong about My LTE Band, is 7 not 4. Apparently there's a carrier in UK with band [email protected] same as here (Colombia), so theorically this rom should work, but this is not the case. I'm trying to change more settings without luck. If you know something to help me, it would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Hi jewelkobayashi,
I tried the method you wrote, but, despite the phone being disconnected, it downloaded the same ROM that I recently have flashed (GLOBAL .757 commercial and Journalist). Is there any other way to download the original Phone ROM . I know my original ROM is GLOBAL-14.2.A.1.114 and the customization number is 1281-3723. I haven't found any site to download this exact firmware. If you know something, it would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Are you sure about your customization number? Because it gets changed if you flash another firmware. Here's everything you need to know: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52011642 to download your firmware. By the way, what's your country, branding and SI-Number (so I can add your customization number to the list)?

Stop flashing random ROMs and check your settings! Unless you have a different model phone than the rest of us (there are three, D5503, M51w and SO-02F), then ANY Z1C (D5503) ROM will work, but they come with different APN lists as bundling every carrier in the worlds APN settings would be a waste of space. Go to Settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names, and edit or create the correct APN in there. Look at a friends phone or on your carriers website for the correct settings. This is your problem, no doubt about it.
Please note that some carriers (mine included) have a special APN for LTE. E.g. standard is internet.tele2.se, LTE is 4g.tele2.se on my carrier.
...I have no idea where you're getting your data from, because literally every LTE network in the Nordics uses band 7.
Finally it worked

Thanks for your response. I verified APN settings with friend's phones and it was identical. Finally I called my carrier's help desk and after some try/error setups with them, they gave me an alternate APN that worked until I came home where 4G icon dissapeared again. Then, I was surprised with helpdesk response when I called them again. "There is no 4G coverage in your home area". O.O What is intriging to me is that the phone displayed 4G all the time when I just bought it (Even with restarts and wherever i was) and this changed only when I flashed a generic rom. Is just a silly assumption, but, is possible that carriers can make things like force 4G icon in their custom roms to make advertising or something like that? Just asking. Anyway, Thanks a lot for the responses.

Emmm do you have a manual to how to use the ussd??
I went into it to check it out, I touched I don't know what...
And now I can no longer connect to my network provider...
(reboot doens't helps, changing to wdmca or gsm or other options doesn't changes, VPN seems ok, I have no signal... )
Help!!!
Ok, this is what I did to screw it all
Go to the ussd *#*#4643#*#*
Go to phone info
Go to setings and Select radio band
It gives me the option of GSM/UMTS band = USA Band
-> I no longer have WCDMA or GSM connection :S
(LTE still works...)
Now, how do I go back to my previous options? or does it has nothing to do with it, and the problem is something else?
EDIT> problem solved, I had to reflash my ftf by just updating the FOTA (not sure I needed this...) and the BASEBAND... Now I am back up and running again.. >D

Mode S3 i747m Canadian SaskTel with official kitkat 4.4.2 installed. in my phone 2g and edge work fine but there is no 3g reception. I enable 3g wcdma still now reception. please help me? do I need to write NV? how to write I tried using cdma but no success. my phone is not rooted but it is unlocked. please help and tell me steps to follow. I am worried/
Who is your carrier?
Did it work previously? If so when did it start doing this? Did you recently flash anything?
Do not try messing with the NV Data. This should only be done if deternined to be absolutely necessary and only after other options have been explored. Ive helped fix a lot of devices where a simple modem or firmware flash wouldve worked, but people went straight to trying to fix the IMEI. If its determined thats what is needed, ill gladly help with it, but in your case it doesnt sound like that would make a difference at this point.

simple is that after unlocking i747m there is no 3g reception. imei is matched just /7 extra shows when I check using command *#06# . everything is fine and it is on 4.4.2 stock rom SaskTel carrier which I flash using odin. problem occurs after unlocking.
That is strange. No idea why unlocking it would have broken 3g.
I would backup any important data, including the internal sd card, then reflash the firmware and factory reset.
You can also try this either before or after a firmware flash (or both). Follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211690
This is generally used to solve GPS issues, but has been known to help with other problems as well. Might get lucky!

I follow your steps still no success, it is i747m with stock rom 4.4.2 and I want to know weather I need to flash modem or to write NV file?
Is your baseband showing as NE6 or NF2? If so your modem should be fine. No other build will work anyway. And as far as messing with the NV data, i dont recommend it. I wouldnt know where anything related to the sim lock would be, and if you make a mistake it could really mess things up. What NV file are you referring to btw?

Its very possible that the new carrier broadcasts their signal using different bands/frequencies than what the device uses.
This site will show you your devices Cellular Network capabilities.
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=4731&c=samsung_sgh-i747m_galaxy_s_iii_lte_16gb
You may need to search online or call the carrier to find out what they use. Wikipedia often has this information.

my phone supports GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA, HSPA+ but problem is somewhere in software told by zong network help line
Those are the network technolgies supported. What matters in this case is what frequencies are used by these technologies.
GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS850 (B5), UMTS1900 (B2), UMTS2100 (B1), LTE1700/2100 (B4)
Those are the bands your device operates on. For example, if that carrier uses the 1700 band for 3G, you probably wont be able to use it. So if you can determine what they use, you can compare it to what the device is compatible with.
Support can be useful for certain things, but unless your problem is covered by what is on their computer screen, they often wont have a clue and will be quick to blame whatever comes to mind first. This happens often enough with just about every company that i simply dont trust what they say most of the time.
If nothing else, checking if they use the frequencies your device supports is much easier than trying to hunt down a very uncommon hardware or software problem. At least you could eliminate it as a possible cause. And if my suspicion is correct, you will save a lot of time you would otherwise spend diagnosing a problem that does not exist.

Also, I'm not sure exactly what you did, but in general it is not a good idea to apply the NV Data of one device to another. (Not asking you to explain, more of a caution to others who might consider trying that. Like I said, we aren't allowed to share that information. )

problem solved but I am facing another which is that my imie number is changed. I want to change my imei to its original and also I want to keep current nv data of my mobile except imie
That's one big reason to never use another devices NV Data. If the device it came from is still being used, that imei may become blacklisted very soon.
PM me and I will try to help you change back to the correct one. We cannot discuss this here, so PM is the only way I can try to help.
I own an E986 for one month, I bought it from Greece but it must be from Germany. My problem is that after rooting and installing many custom roms and stock roms I dont have 4g signal. I have tried everything, hidden menus, 4g switchers, flashing modems from allover the world just in case something works, flashing back to stock with lg flash tool, I tried stock 4.1.2 and 4.4.2, I erased APN's and added again......and many many more. Can anybody please help me? I will try any ideas, one last thing, the signal of the mobile carrier is depending only on the modem I install or are there any other parameters that I should try to flash. Thanks in advance!!!!

If you've flashed back to a stock TOT/KDZ and still have no 4G, then it seems like it cannot be any software setting other than APN configuration, and if you're certain that's right, then it could be worth it to try a different SIM card.
What else could it be? If you've flashed a correct stock image for your model, then you've ruled out software issues other than configuration, and if it once worked with the same software configuration (APN settings, etc.) then what else could it be but hardware, something tangible?

So what do you believe? Do you think that I have a hardware issue? But how on earth is it possible to have 3g and H signal but no 4g. I have flashed every stock rom for my device through kdz method but I haven't tried the tot method, do you believe that this might be the solution? I have even bought another sim card from my provider but no luck, should I try another provider? Phewwww I ask a lot I know please forgive me it' s that I have never faced a problem before that I couldn't overcome......

KDZ is sufficient. I don't see how TOT would make any difference. Maybe you could try just to familiarize yourself with the method. I don't see how that could make any difference, but maybe I'm more ignorant that I realize (this happens often enough).
So you've had 4G on that phone with that same provider before? WIth the same plan? If it's not software, and not hardware, then maybe it's to do with the carrier? I think you can be pretty safe that it's not software if you've got a stock image flashed on there, and if your APN settings are spot-on. That would leave:
- SIM card
- Phone hardware
- Carrier
- ?what else?
If it's not software, as in if you've got a fresh stock image flashed, then what else could it be but hardware? Maybe I'm missing something.. dunno.
Have you tried the SIM cards in any other phone to see if 4G works?

To tell you the truth I haven't tried the sim to another phone because I don't have another 4g phone, I have contacted my carrier and they confirmed that I have 4g signal. Who knows, I cant understand how it could be a hardware issue since I have 3g and H signal, do you know if apart from modem is there anything else that I could flash in order to have better signal reception? For example flashing kernel or something else....

Maybe visit some cell phone shop and ask if you can ram your SIM into one of their phones for a minute, to test.
If you've flashed a KDZ, I don't see what else you could do, software-wise, on top of that. Have you ventured very far into the hidden diagnostic menus? I know there's tests in there for most everything, ones that show if you've got a 4G connection and exactly what detailed connection info is available.
EDIT: Oh, you can look into your service manual here. Maybe you could pull a MacGyver, yes?

I followed your advice, I tried my sim to another 4g phone and it works perfectly, I even bought a sim card from another provider just in case but again no luck, 4g signal wont show on. The hidden menu is something that I have discovered but dont know what values to change, I just checked that lte is enabled. My only hope is to find the original stock rom for Greece named e98610c.kdz I believe to flash it and see if it works, but I cant find it anywhere. My phone is from Germany though, another option I have is to find a second stock rom from Germany different than the e98610i.kdz, I have seen an e98610a.kdz, but I wasnt able to find and download it. Any help would be very nice, but thanks anyway.

Hallo again, one more question, is it possible that I have flashed a modem that is capable of 4g but in bandwith that my provider in Greece doen't support?

I don't think so. If you've flashed back to stock with a KDZ/TOT, then you're golden.
Who is your Grecian provider? What are your current APN settings?

Hope this tells you something, looking forward to replying me :

Did you find your e986 Greek stock image yet? Just curious. I swear it sounds like a hardware problem though. Dunno.
