Hi all, I bought a new Galaxy Note II overseas in Malaysia in February. It is an original set fully network unlocked. I have tried using Vodafone New Zealand SIM card in it but to no avail. I tried flashing new modems and stock firmwares, ariza patch, backup and restore IMEI before and after flashing. My serial numbers and IMEI numbers are still the same and are matching to what is on the box.
If I insert a Malaysian SIM card it works on roaming mode since I am back in NZ, however if I insert a NZ SIM card and try to connect to the local network it says 'Unable to connect,' calling and messaging only results in 'Not registered to network.' And it only allows me to make emergency calls. My firmware is XXDMB2, baseband is ariza, kernel is Perseus.
I would be grateful for any help.

Have you checked the Mayalsian phone model supports NZ operator frequencies?

Just a sugestion to you, root the phone or install a pre-rooted ROM from drketan and then install Galaxy SIM Unlock to check and be sure that the phone is fully network unlocked and also not SIM restricted.
To check the SIM restriction make sure that under Details -Accepted MCC/MNC - it is writen "all" and not some numbers like 5021x were x can be any number.
Under the next line I expect your phone to have Network Lock -unlocked, because you could use any SIM and make SOS calls, but if the above line is showing some numbers instead of "all" that might be your problem.
It is worth checking this because the aplication is free to check the status of the locking.
My new Note 2 was locked, I got the official unlock code from my carrier, entered the unlock code, the Network Lock was showing as unlocked but the SIM restriction status was still showing as locked to my carrier , under Accepted MCC/MNC I had my operator network code instead of "all".
I paid 3 euro and unlocked my phone fully with the Galaxy SIM Unlock, small price for a full unlock if your phone is rooted.
Good luck
Hi mendo, thanks for the suggestion. I ran galaxsim and I will post a screenshot. I am leaning towards the serial number being generic 0. Flashing Dr Ketans rom didnt help but thanks for the advice.

The Serial Number is showing 000000000000 on mine as well, this is not an issue it must be a bug in the tool.
Use some other tool or in Settings- About Device - Staus - Serial Number to display the S/N if you want to make sure that it is the same with the one from the box.
The Product Code should be GT-N7100xxxyyy, where xxx is the HW version and yyy is the CSC (country sales code) for the country/carrier.
This Not Active product code, could be the result of your problem and it might signal that your nv_data.bin and md5 files don't match.
I found an old post for a Galaxy S phone where changing the phone code or modifing the nv_data.bin is an issue and the SIM won't register.
I am sure that there are more topics about this but I'll post the link for the Galaxy S issue where you can start investigating more.

The rest looks OK and your phone looks fully unlocked.
Here is a N7100 topic about the product code.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2045278
tried galaxy s/s2/s3 csc changertried galaxy s/s2/s3 csc changerCheck Fus is the only apk that will show the product code of your device with no need for root.
Unfortunately the apk doesn't work for the original purpose but at least it reads your product code.
Also it looks that the md5 checksum file is not autogenerating anymore if you edited the nv_data.bin and deleted the md5 file.
You need to restore the original bin and md5 file from an original efs backup.
I've just noticed that in your product code I can still see the CSC code as BTU.
Here is some info on the CSC and a free tool right at the end of the post if you need to change it, but it needs root and it will wipe your phone.
The apk is "galaxy s/s2/s3 csc changer".

Good luck, but I think you are in trouble and maybe only Samsung official service might be your salvation.
Wipe your root and install an official ROM before sending it to Samsung with the "product code missing" fault.
You may wish to hide the imei number as that is the one unique number that gives your phone an identity.

Product code is not active no matter what. I edited the nv_data.bin, made a backup of it, and did not delete the md5 file. I'll restore it and send it to Samsung service center. Thanks for the help brother, would've donated if possible but I'm a broke uni student
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2045278
Editing the nv_data.bin will make the md5 original file useless because the checksum is different and you can't generate a valid md5 file anymore to match a modiffied nv_data.bin file.
Copying/Restoring the original nv_data.bin and original md5 files from a backup and set the permissions right, as in the Galaxy S topic might help.

Try to flash with Odin exactly the same firmware you initially had.
Your IMEI should return then.
IMEI backup is about the very first thing to do before flashing any custom ROM

thanks guys for your output i just found this article http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088809
by flashing via kies. it will automatically detect your original firmware and what region by putting your serial no only.
i never try to flash other country. i only rooted my phone then using custom ROMs without a problem for network before then decided to go back to unrooted original Samsung firmware.
i think the original firmware is (deutsch) because in the start up setup deutsch language appear. then i set it to English (united states).
my problem now is the WiFi went back off & on. do you have any idea how to fix this permanently without using the code of *#1100#.
because last night i flash the Philippines firmware WiFi working perfectly smooth but no network problem! i think theirs a conflict with the region. if i can only decrypt the file then get the wifi settings. pls help...

Are you shure that your SIM card work?
IF yes and it dosent work you can go in:
Settings > (Connection Tab) > More network > Mobile Network > Network Operators
Now it will display : Searching... (wait nd after select Virgin Mobile
if it still dosent work, make shure that your sime card does work on a stock Virgin Mobile Phone
If that still didnt fix your problem mabye a facory reset may fix your device.
*** Warning by doing that you will loose all your data that is on your phone ***
Download Kies 3 on your PC
on kies 3 go into: > tool > emergency firmware upgrade and intialisation
enter your phone model : SGH-I747
after they ask your S/N (that you can found under your phone under the battery on the sticker)
after they ask you to put your phone into download mode (turn off your phone hold power + volume down + home button at the same time then when you are going to see a warning (on your phone) just press volum up to continue)
And kies will unoot ( if the phone is rooted) and restaure the stock android firware no rooted (4.3)
And Voilà! just have to wait till its done
Give me some feedback if it worked or not!
I tried all of that but it still does not receive cals
Have you tried using the correct APN's for Virgin Mobile?

Isnt Virgin mobile a CDMA service? If so, the i747 won't work on their network for calls. It is a GSM phone.
In Canada I believe Virgin is GSM. I don't know if we have any CDMA in Canada.

Ah, I did not know CDMA didn't exist in Canada.
CDMA currently exists in Canada and is in the process of being discontinued.

Hello all
I am facing a rather strange issue here with my Galaxy Note 3 Neo SM-N7505.
I had updated it to latest stock ROM from sammobile and flashed it via ODIN but the phone does not seem to connect to network.
When ever i try to make a call it says not registered to network.
It shows which network I am connected to but does not make a call or send a message.
The EFS is not corrupt because the IMEI and Serial number are the same and have not been changed.
The phone does not have any warranty so i cannot take it to Samsung.
Any help would be appreciated.
Have you tried changing the sim card? It might help.
