[Q] mobile network not available - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Coming from rooted stock, I flashed wanamlite rom and got Samsung logo bootloop. I restored my backup and now I have no imei and mobile network not connected. I did not backup efs. Please any help??

What ROM did you flash ? Was it for sprint ? Do you have a sprint note 2 ? There is no ROM close to the name you put in sprint section ... you will have to use tar and Odin otherwise if you can get into download mode

I am just waiting for the upload so I can flash it and hopefully it'll return my phone back to the way it was and make phone calls and text. (fingers crossed). I will report back what happens

Flashed this to the SGH-T889v (canadian version)
Got my signal back (it says no sim as it didn't before)
Problem is there is still no IMEI.....
Tried reflashing all components a few times but still nothing.
Is there no end to this issue!?!?!?
AARRGGH.
Checked all the Bell network APN settings...still says NOT REGISTERED TO NETWORK
Any suggestions?

Hey Shawn,
Wipe data then flash the Stock ROM, flash the flashable Modem.bin and you're all set my friend!!!
Im basically a genius.
I flashed my original rom to the t-mobile one and did NOT make a backup
Now i have a sgh-t889v with t889 rom
Ive tired everything including what adidas recommended but nothing...big NO SIGNAL and no IMEI
I msg'd someone who's got the exact phone as me but they have not replied. He's rooted so he should be able to make a full nandroid backup but no reply....

Hi, excuse me. Do you this modem note 2 T-Mobile can flash to N7100 international? So the result for N7100 can get 1700 Mhz freq using T-Mobile network service without EDGE??? Please answer my noob question. Sorry my english not perfect. Appreciate. Thank you.

Greetings all.
I rooted my sgn2 using the toolkit and installed TWRP.
Then proceeded to install Omega rom.
In TWRP, I wiped cache dalvik syetem, factory reset.
I now have my IMEI as unknown and I do not have a efs backup. Is there a way to restore my imei/efs partition? I have searched all of xda without a resolution. I seriously wished I backed up my efs partition.
Please let me know if there is anything I could do.

I took the backup and tried to restore on shawns phone however the Baseband still remains the same it wont change it....
I donno why it is happening i thought when you do a cmw backup it backs your modem and all....
Any suggestions?
I've seen this happen with the original note with "0" as the IMEI. i had to do a warranty swap.
So what I am gathering is that some people flashed a rom that was for the international note 2 and now they have no imei or signal is that about right? So was the rom posted in tbis fourm? Or did they just do something really stupid?

Ha your probally right. I havent gotten a chance to read up on this phone yet I worked 102 hojrs last week when I am not workin I am sleeping. But that is over now. One thing I noticed is it seems like samsung might have used one design for all the different carriers but I would assume that the software is still a little different than the international one.
hey i flashed this modem , also flashed to original stock rom, no luck i get imei as 0/00 and if i put sim card it shows searching

[Q] Won't detect sim! help please!! note 2

I have an att galaxy note 2. I use straight talk and have been doing so for years with a lot of different models. I have had my note 2 rooted for at least 6 months with no problem. Yesterday I wanted to try a new rom. I downloaded crash rom and flashed it and when I rebooted it I no longer had a a signal and if I try to make a call it says it doesn't detect a sim. I have wiped everything and flashed a different rom and still no detection of sim. Please help!! Thanks!!

I would flash to stock with ODIN first to get all your baseband/modem stuff in order. Then i would suggest you check out clean rom. And im kind of obliged to also suggest Xenon-HD

Baseband showing unknown for sure and you have that circle thing on top right. Try flash stock rom as stated above and if that doesn't then you will need to restore your efs backup or nand backup if you have one.

cant fix it...
Should I just try to sell this and buy a new phone. I have tried a million different ways and cannot get the phone to read the sim card. I can't get Odin to work, every time it just fails. And I can't find a stock att rom anywhere for the note 2. Is this a lost cause at this point? Is it even fixable? thanks

im am going to try it now. havent had time because of the kids but now they are asleep, here goes nothing. i will report once im up and running.
Ok so I just got done flashing this projectaosp.
First I made sure I downloaded latest tmobile modem as of june or july I believe, as well as the most recent saber kernal. Flashed modem first, then the rom followed by kernal.
Everything looks and performs freakin awesome however im missing something. As I speculated its not as easy as just retaining just the modem.
My google play store gives up errors when it does the automatic backup. My voicemail is not working. So I can assume anything tmobile is out of the question. Perhaps I need to tweak my apn settings ? Can anyone shine light to what im missing to get this working ?
I know just by flashing this is the rom I want and need. Just need it functional. Im willing to try anything if you give me instuctions. Ive already "bricked " my note 2 and brought it back so im not scared to try anything. However this was very noticeably quick and snappy compared to my daily driver of the jedi 17 rom. I want this rom so badly on my t-889. Its the best of both worlds, touchwiz and aosp. Please help or directions.

I tried the same rom, flashed project AOSP, flashed stock radio, flashed stock kernel, No go on data, I went to try to set the apn, and it says no sim card.
...so... I am guessing you will have the same luck.
its not registering my sim card. which answers why i was running into those issues before. i tried flashing in the correct order. and then also dirty flashed again after my first attempt.

Don't do it if you think you might ever want to be able to use Odin as a recovery option. Once you upgrade to 4.3 on AT&T you're stuck if something bad happens to your phone you're going to have a hard time fixing it.
If yours sure you want to do it then Odin your phone back to an early firmware as soon as it boots it will force you to take an update. It may be 4.1.2 or it may be 4.3? Not sure but you just let the phone update through ota. Or alternately there are files with instructions in threads labeled with names similar to 4.3 OTA official.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Well right now there are some disadvantages, imho, to upgrading to 4.3 stock, once the bootloader is updated you cannot downgrade to any other build at this time, but that is a call for u to make, if you want to ota to 4.3 you have to get on stock 4.1.2 which you do through odin and then ota, not what I would do at this time just to many horror stories for my taste on 4.3 right now

It is all up to you. I have 4.3 and am happy with it. It is very stable and has decent battery life. It isn't without issues though. I have problems with it giving me the weak wifi signal message or that my Internet is too slow (10Mbps DSL? Slower than some but certainly no slouch) when it does this it disconnects and I have to manually tell it to reconnect. The other thing is in my battery stats built in the rom not all of the apps are being logged only things like screen on time, cell standby, wifi, bluetooth, basic phone stuff but none of the apps???
Why I wish I hadn't done it? Because I lost the ability to be able to recover my phone with Odin and the ability to do whatever it is I want to with the bootloaders.

Read the stickys here and in the general section it will have nearly all of the information and tools you need. Then you can get firmware to flash in Odin from http://www.sammobile.com go there register for an account click firmwares in the top bar of the site and search for your phones model number such as mine is SGH-I747 and a Canadian phone or Mexican phone would be SGH-I747M.

I take absolutely no responsibility of any bad things that happen if you use the above links. make sure you understand the tasks you are wanting to preform and the risks associated with such, 4.3 has caused MANY HARD BRICKS.

Give it a few minutes to try to boot then pull the battery, boot to recovery and do a factory reset. if that doesn't work then flash the odin file again.
When you do get the 4.3 it will take several minutes to boot it will look like its stuck on the boot screen but be patient it will likely boot eventually.

No it shouldnt take ten minutes but 4.3 takes considerably longer than all the roms I have used in the past.
You are still at the stage of flashing 4.1.1 correct? if it didnt boot just reflash it(uncheck the box for auto reboot so you have to pull the battery out after you flash it) then go to recovery and do a factory reset, then reboot the phone, it should boot this time.
You did check to make 100% sure you downloaded the correct 4.1.1 file for the phones model? right?
Don't mean to make anybody sound silly just trying to figure out exactly whay is going on.

i got passed it. i guess i wasn't patient enough lol. i'm on 4.3 now. now time to try to root and flash beanstalk lol.
pitbullmommy45245 said:
ok i got passed that. i got to the part where you flash 4.3. it was going through the flash then it got to a part where two errors came up in red (i couldn't see what they were it rebooted right after) and then it rebooted but got stuck on the att ball and wouldn't reboot. then i went into recovery and it was all red and blue and the android had a triangle with a red exclimation mark. i just tried to reflash but it keeps doing the same thing. it gets stuck on the att ball.

Do you still have custom recovery (Which one do you have) or do you have the stock recovery?
Edit: I see you edited your post after I quoted you to respond, glad you got it going, now just follow the guides as written for root, I had to use method #2, but you should try method 1 first.
Good luck

Oel and of5 odin will no longer work til theres a tar.

If u take them U CANT Odin BACK its a factory reset update & factory lock fix.

Reminds me of the Knox issue bricking phones after taking the MK3 Firmware on the S3 (SPHL710) and trying to odin back to an older version. Samsung never stops trying... Stock/AOSP needs to be based on BOB7 and earlier if this issue cant be resolved or the threads are gonna be a nightmare.

yep....that's what I got
So if you have OE1, you can't use Odin at all or only if the boot loader is locked?
Does updating to OE1 lock the boot loader?

If you have the correct .pit file, and re-partition, would that fix it?

From ob7 maybe
Same problem
That is what I suspected. I have been researching literally for 6 hours why my Note 4 wouldn't Odin back to stock. (stuck on CM too ) Looks like I wasted my day. Waiting for a Nandroid backup.... thanks everyone! :good:
EDIT: I have an extra Note 4 as a backup just in case. It is still on 5.0.1, rooting it now and making nandroid backup and will post link since I have no data on it. Sit tight!
