Hi everybody,
This is my first post on this forum, I am writing as I am in desperate help to help solve my issue with my note 2. I am on Tmobile in the UK. I rooted and installed a custom rom. My 3g signal disappeared. So I tried to go back to stock firmware, which I did. But I have made a mistake and installed a 'three' network firmware (4.2.1) and I am still unable to receive 3g signal? Does anybody have any idea as to where I have gone wrong or how to get my internet back?
Thanks in advance
Danny
Go to setting - wireless (more) - mobile network - access point names
Now if you can see any apn there open it and delete
Then select menu key-restore to defaut
If it doesn't work
You can ask operator for it
Or manually copy from others who have working 3g and have same operator
Or
Select toolbox in my signature and find last tool and try that.

Thanks so much for the reply. I tried deleting the APN...and then resetting it but it just put back on the exact one that I deleted. I clicked on your toolbox link...what is it that i have to download from there? I am completely baffled as to what to do. I mean I am on a tmobile contract, so am confused as to why I am now on the three network firmware? Would that have something to do with it?
If I can get it back to tmobile stock then I could take it into store and let them sort it I suppose.
Thanks
Yes download that you may find correct apn from its database for your network and you can manually copy it.

I am using the GT-N7100 on Tmobile. I saw a video that said you could put any network carrier firmware on to the phone by flashing it on Odin. I did that but it was with the three network firmware 4.2.1. So obviously when the phone boots it has the three logo etc. I am trying to find a stock 4.2.1 tmobile firmware, so I can flash that onto the phone....hopefully see if that sorts the 3g problem and if it doesnt I can atleast take the phone into tmobile and get the problem sorted without them asking questions.
I have been on Sammobile.com for firmwares...does tmobile firmware come under the code 'BTU'?
Edit
Sorry it's not Germany
N7100 don't have tmobile i think
Its not have different model?
Wait someone on tmobile answer it

You are a diamond. I will download and flash it over and see what happens.
Thanks
If that works for you, then just note apn setting manually and later flash any latest 4.1.2 rom for unbranded
And if your 3g won't work just put it manually, but I think unbranded should work.
I am saying this bcoz rom you are downloading having two serious bug.

And very dangerous and can brick your device.

Meantime check your apn and correct following field if that is different than mentioned below

I flashed the firmware onto my phone but it has been stuck on the boot logo for over half an hour now. I have run out of ideas. I will keep searching for the tmobile firmware.
Sorry...the phone has finally booted and is now working and back. 3g is online too!!! Thankyou so much for the help!
Gld to know you sorted out it
anyway,whenever phone stuck after flashing ROM, first step to follow is wipe cache and data from recovery.
Just came back to twiz after using CM11 for a couple weeks. Odin to 4.1.2 then flashed 4.3 with twrp recovery. Right now I have an IMEI number, but no internet access, no bluetooth mac address and obviously no ip address. Wifi works perfectly, tried removing sim and restarting and all that. Wondering what I can do to fix this? Odin again? Also when I try to access mobile networks under connections, it shows a error "insert sim card to access netowork services"
Btw I didn't restore imei, it was already got. Also didn't want to make new post but trying to edit in stop was causing fc

Your APNs could be faulty. Better Do Factory Reset in Recovery then wipe Dalvik + Cache then re-flash your CM again. First thing to do after that is check your Access Point Names in Settings >Advanced > Access Point Name
Did you flash the 4.3 modem?

baseband t889UVAJ1
as for the modem if you mean the android version it's 4.1.1
i downgraded from 4.1.2
i just thought about something.. Could it be possible that when i downloaded the 4.1.1 firmaware, was i also suppose to get the modem?
from the list i seen factory image odexed deoxed kernel an modem..
what i did was only downloaded the factory image an flashed it with odin.

The factory image includes all components of ROM (bootloader, modem, kernel, system).
If phone is already on T889UVALJ1 then the unlock method should work.
Did you see a menu after entering *#197328640# ?
You can go back to this menu and check status of "[3]Perso SHA256 OFF"
Did you reboot the phone after this process, are you trying a SIM from a different carrier ? (just making sure)

Mobile hotspot does not work on stock 4.3 deodexed roms without flashing the hotspot hack. You will need to find and flash the correct version hotspot hack for your rom. Ex. MA7, MC2, MK4, etc.
Do this: Flash Phil's recovery 6.0.7.9, wipe everthing, flash rom of choice (I recommend LorJay's stock deodexed MK4 without Note 3 features), upon first boot you may need to Odin flash the WiFi fix (from your PC only), then boot into recovery and flash the MK4 hotspot hack, reboot and setup phone, Success.
If for some strange reason you still get that error message when turning on mobile hotspot, I'd flash a custom AOSP ROM such as Slim ROM, Carbon ROM, etc. Those Roms have hotspot fully functioning right out of the box. Keep us posted.
Still no good. Thanks for suggestion tho. . Haven't tried asop but not a Fan. Any suggestions on wiping or formatting(how to) the internal part of phone to go from scratch.

Here you go. I recommend the Odin method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769
It seems as if Sprint has done something to your phone because everything you have dine should have worked. Something isn't right. That's why I suggested trying an AOSP ROM for the time being just to test this theory. Then you can flash back to stock or whatever you choose. You could also flash a custom Touch Wiz rom that has hotspot already working. If that fails you definitely got a phone that's been altered somehow by Sprint. I've yet to ever see this but I'm sure its very possible. Just my opinion.

Hi all, just have a quick question regarding my nandroid backup and restore. Every time I try to restore a nandroid backup of my phone, mostly everything works, however, Amazon App Store will stop allowing me to download any apps at all saying that there is a problem with the connection to the internet error (with 3g or wifi) and my swiftkey will popup in the notification drawer saying that there aren't anymore language packs and when trying to install the language packs back on, they don't download. either. WEIRD thing is, the Play Store still works properly. Only those two apps have issues. Any idea what is wrong with my nandroid backup or restore?
Phone Config:
Galaxy S 4 M919V (Wind Mobile)
Wind Stock 4.4.2 VLUFNB5 Factory Image/Kernel
Rooted with CF-Auto-Root-jfltetmo-jfltetmo-sghm919.tar
Recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-jfltecan
Knox counter tripped 0x1
Anyone see a problem with my config?
Troubleshooting done already
Changed recovery to philz_touch_6.26.6-jflte.tar, tried backup and restore... SAME problem.
Tried Uninstalling and Re-installing apps (with TiBu and Settings App Manager)... still same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Try wiping delvik and cache in recovery then reboot. Or you can also try to clear data and cache in those 2 apps and reboot.

Could it be possible that my recoveries aren't completely compatible with my stock firmware? Possibly, a bad flash of recovery? or could it be that the bootloader is screwing something up since the knox bit is tripped? Even when trying to use skipsoft unified android toolkit for my s4, there are backup options that are disabled...
I'd like to get to the bottom of this because not having a proper backup of my system is kicking my ocd's a$$
Try flashing to completely stock and start over

Also attempted that and the same issue. Another thing is, Swiftkey is the actual paid version from app store, so the possibility of having a corrupt apk is slim to none.
Could it possibly be a problem with those specific apps (swiftkey and amazon app store) in which they dont nandroid backup properly or with these custom recoveries that dont backup everything needed for those 2 apps?

I was just thinking...When you changed from TWRP to Philz, did you use Philz to recover your TWRP backup? From my understanding it isnt possible to use a different recovery to restore a backup.

No i tried a backup of each recovery to restore in each recovery.

Try deleting your google account and re-installing it.
system/accounts/google tap on your account and remove it.
turn off and do a bat pull
wait abt a min and power up and go to the google account and install selecting existing account and see if the play store will work for you.
good Luck!

If you changed to Philz while you were already having the issue with the apps and turned around and made a backup, that backup would still have the issues. Lol. Try deleting the apk files and re download the apk

Well, I ended up finding that CWM_6.0.4.7_Touch_GT-I9505 worked out for me using i9505 AOSP Pre-Release from Broodplank. No problems with backup or restore most of the time. I did encounter Swiftkey having the no languages installed problem, but it manages to install the languages again without error, so all is good.
