ok .. so I had a Note II with tmobile . broke it in 3 days .. just got the other one today.
I tried to restore the backup from the sdcard and in recovery it says MD5 mismatch .. anyone have any idea what is going on there .. its for the same kind of phone and was really looking forward to restoring back to how it was setup from the first one.
also now that I am looking at it .. clockwork mod app doesnt have the Note II listed as an option for a recovery ..
EDIT .. nevermind .. I cant believe it was because I added Note II at the end of the file name for the restore .. took that off and then it passed the MD5
not sure why that would have thrown off a MD5 though ..

can you try what i did? flashing a 4.2 rpm after a 4.3 rom messes the efs. the partitions change and the phone cant find your efs partition anymore because this was modified when you went to 4.3.
perhaps you can try below. maybe the principle is the same.
good luck

Just sharing my experience in solving this issue. Hopefully it will help solve those who have similar issues.
I flashed a file which messed up my EFS partition. I had a backup and tried to use the available programs to restore my EFS using my backup. None worked. I even brought it to the samsung store, but they said they would change the motherboard and reprogram, and replacement and service would cost more than half the cost of a new N7105. I purchased the phone in another country. The people who had stores to repair phones gave up on my phone. They also offered to replace the motherboard for US$175.00.
My phone was originally under a DMB2 rom (from Singapore I think). I flashed a DMC3 rom, and used this for five months, until i encountered the problem.
I initially gave up and got a note 3. But i could not believe the phone was junk and people in XDA (as I observed) do not seem to give up.
After two weeks, i found the solution below, which brought my phone to working condition.
1. I flashed the stock rom N7105ZHDMI2_N7105ZZHDMI2_TGY from sammobile.
2. I flashed a pit file using Odin. The pit file is found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2137008
This restored the baseband. But IMEI was no longer NULL. However, it was still 0.
3. I downloaded and used the EFS Pro from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1308546
Before using EFS Pro, make sure you dial *#7284# and change the setting of Qualcomm USB Settings to
"RMNET + DM + MODEM"
I will not hurt your phone if you do, but EFS Pro will just not work. If you don't do this, the EFS Pro will display "Phone not responding" or something similar.
NOTE: I couldn't find the option with RMNET, but i used the option that also had an "RM*** + DM + MODEM".
After the phone is read, change back the IMEI to what it was originally.
Dial *#7284# again to change back to "MTP+ADB".
It's all working now.
Hope this is able to help someone. Now i have two working versions of Note.
Thanks to the authors of the program i used, and the people who uploaded the files used.
Cheers!

of course, you have to use the pit file for n7100. just use the search bar, its in xda.
First of all, I am new to XDA. So hello guys from Turkey! :victory:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 with a clone IMEI. My friend brought it to me from Dubai and I live in Turkey, also use my phone here. Yesterday night I wanted to upgrade my OS to 4.3 but as I am a noob, I think I did something wrong. I started with installing 4.3 original rom. But different versions of Odin have failed. I also tried rebooting pc, reinstalling drivers, using different usb ports, etc. And of course Kies was disabled. I faced with "Complete (write) operation failed, success 0 failure 1 error. I have no backup of my old data or rom. I meddled with the wipe things, too. I used MegaWipe. Now my phone stucks at Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 screen. I want to start from the very beginning of the process. I don't even know where to start.

Hi guys,
I've gone and downloaded the latest stock firmware for my sprint note 4 since it's sometimes having problems booting. I am trying to reinstall the stock image N910PVPS4DPJ1_N910PSPT4DPJ1_SPR but when I run on Odin i get no pit error message. I have found the post where to download the PIT file from, but I am wondering if doing this will erase my programming for the phone number on the note 4. I have tried to do a EFS backup but I am having problems using the app since my phone is still stock and unrooted. Since my phone is having so mch problems and I'm having a hard time, can someone please give me a troubleshotting step by step guide on what should I do? If flashing the stock file and the PIT will not erase the phone programming please let me know and I will proceed doing it that way.
Thanks,
