[SOLVED] Phone stuck on EDGE:2

went to bed last night with 4g speeds and everything...turned phone on this morning and now im stuck on EDGE:2 and i just cant get it back to regular hspa+....can anyone lend a hand?? been like this all day and its driving me crazy
EDIT/SOLVED: idk how but it fixed it right up...back in july when the whole IMEI scare was going on,i waited until Peoplearmy released a way to back up and restore the IMEI. All though i didnt have a IMEI problem i was dealing with a random data loss problem and the restore method said it could fix that too. yesterday i tried to restore 7 qnc backup files i previously made( made one for each new modem released and then used the generate qnc option just to be sure) and NONE OF THEM WORKED! 10 minutes ago, i realized that i never tried restoring the very very first qnc back up on my phone; i was busy restoring all the newer versions. so i restored that very first qnc back up i ever made, rebooted the phone and now i get HSPDA with my first speed test resulting in 18mbps! i think a tear came from my eye! this issue drove me crazy all day yesterday so to those who never made a qnc back up on your phone i suggest you DO IT NOW....never know if you wake up one day and just lose your 4g data, like me.

Sounds like you lost your IMEI. Check out this thread:

i have my IMEI...i know all about the IMEI issue and that dosent seem to be the problem im having...imei is in intact, i can text and call but I just cant get pas EDGE:2

i was stock on edge also but i did lose IMEI , if you have a NV backup maybe try to restore it or maybe try a different modem.

Does it stay this way when you go to a different area? You may want to call tmobile, they're doing a lot of work all over their network and it could be an issue with the tower.
Try putting it to wcdma preferred/only and see if that helps. Dialer code *#4636#

YOU Sir are Awesome. Had the same issue and had tried a few of the peoplearmy qnc's as well. I was just about to re-ODIN my S3 as the next step when I came across this thread.... I had never tried my original qnc either, and when I did it worked like a champ! Thanks so much for pointing out something that should have been so obvious to me.! :good::good::good:

currently using the resources i found in this thread.
thanks for the OP. and thanks for the links.....im still working mine out....pretty sure i lost IMEI due to the ODEX app in the FrostyJB rom i just installed......
I am sure this will get worked out and ill post my experiance as well...

OP, did you just notice slower speeds or was your phone stuck on E? I rooted last night and notice slower speeds.

Can someone help me get my 4G restored? I lost my imei number ( was set to 0), I was able to use nv_items_reader_writer along with the SGS3 nv gen to inject my correct imei number back into the phone.
I have checked under status and my imei is no longer 0 & displays the correct imei, but still no 4G - only edge.
I then made a full nv backup, then restored that backup, but still nothing.
Lastly, I have even tried going into the hidden menus that take you into the phone setup/network setup & that did not work.
I am on the stock rooted rom (root66)
I did not have a original nv backup, hence why I am here lol
any other ideas?

I also have this problem on my LG Optimus g (e970) this is the attached version but I'm on T-Mobile. I have rooted and am running a debloated stock ROM. I have never lost my imei info but I had to make some APN files to get my data to work. I can get 4g to work by restarting the phone and then I have 4g until I lose it and then its locked on to edge. I don't believe I have ever seen the 3g symbol either.

I seriously doubt there's anything that we could do for your problem. The tools we have to work with the IMEI and nv items have only worked for the S3 for me. Tried on several other Samsung models with no success.
Plus if it were to work on your device you'd already have had backups created. Like the OP said, he had to restore the original backup he had made before his problem ever occupied.
Have you tried flashing back to stock? Have you considered that with all the network upgrades T-Mobile has done that maybe the changes you made before to make it work are no longer valid? Have you called T-Mobile to make sure it's not a tower problem on their side?
Also, it's completely normal to never see 3g in the status bar...at least for our S3's anyway.

For people with this issue in the future, don't worry about posting, just PM me directly and you'll get a quicker response most of the time. Include the following in your PM
Device model
Current Rom
Current status (imei restored or not. Any other related issues)
How was the imei initially lost
Need to know this so I know what you will need.

[Q] Stuck on Edge, how to get back to 4G?

I flashed the new JB roms with the JI4 modem and couldn't connect to 4G. It would only connect to Edge and my download speed was super slow. Anyways, I wiped everything, reflashed several times with now progress. Now I've flashed it back to ICS LH2 hoping it would solve the problem but still doesn't work.
How do I fix this? Thanks in advance.

I think your IMEI is corrupted. it happens, sometimes, when you flash non-touchwiz roms. You can try using the tool in this thread to recover your IMEI:

Something similar happened to me.does it say 4g up to or edge?
I fixed this by using Odin and going back to full stock image that the phone came with. Let me know if you need a copy and I'll send you a link.

Hope someone can help me with no signal and loss of IMEI number

Hello,
I hope someone has some idea as to what I can do to fix my T889 Note 2 as right now it has no signal, does not register on the TMobile network and even worse, after playing with it some more it seems I have erased the IMEI in the EFS folder... Here is what I did:
I was initially using the Jedi X 7.2 ROM with Perseus Kernel, and everything was just fine. But I guess I was itching for something else :laugh: ... Reading thru the threads here I saw that some of us had flashed AT&T roms like Cleanrom without any problems. They said Cleanrom did not include an AT&T radio so it would work just fine for the T889. But just to be sure, after full wipe and flashing Cleanrom, I have also flashed a Tmobile Modem and Perseus Pernel for T889. That's when the problems started....
After flashing Cleanrom I had NO signal and the network unknown message... At that point the phone still showed the IMEI number... I have tried going back to Jedi X and Odin back to stock, nothing helped.... It still showed Unknown Network, and Not registered on network, impossible to make calls....
Reading some more thru other XDA threads I saw that someone had posted a solution that had worked for him by going into the Service menu (by pressing *#197328640#) and then going to UMTS, then COMMON then NV REBUILD and then ERASES ALL EFS1/2/3....
At that time I was pretty desperate and seeing that it had worked for someone else with a similar problem I tried it immediately... Now that I really give it some thought, I can't believe I pressed Erase all EFS !! :laugh:
That's when I also got the phone showing me IMEI 0.... I guess now I have lost my IMEI as well? I have not made any backups, so restoring is not an option for me at this point !!
Would anyone have any ideas to help me revive this phone? thanks a lot :victory:
P.S. I should add that I still do have the IMEI number of course, it's written on the back of the phone and the original box as well...

Sorry you had to go through this man.. i was going through the same thing when i first got my phone. Xda didn't have a forum for the T-Mobile Note II so i decided to root and flash one of the international version Roms without even making a backup first (dumb of me) then i went ahead and flashed "Android Revolution HD" Rom and lost signal and IMEI showed Unknown.. so i asked for help but no answers.. and then "cmenard" dropped a stock Rom which i'm going to link you to.. i flashed that and flashed the modem on top and that solved the problem for me. So i will go ahead and give you the link to the Stock Rom and the modem i flashed to get my phone to work. Please follow the instrucations. Hope this helps!

Dude i lost my imei when i had my gs3 back in july.. I had no one to help me... thanks for hooking the dude up i can only wish someone like you helped me back then... you da man!!!!:good:

appreciate your kind words bro! I hope this helps him get his phone to work again. :fingers-crossed:

I would love to know if this worked for the people that posted no IMEI... If you could post if this worked... It would let me know to keep these two files in a special recovery folder. Thanks

Thanks very much Addis !!! I truly hope this works, will try as soon as I get home from work, in about an hour or so... After trying so many things I have doubts about everything now, but I am keeping my fingers crossed

(UPDATE) : Have managed to download the rom, I am not sure if the file is corrupted or anything, but I keep getting an error message: E:Can't open / external_sd/deodexed_UVALJ1.zip (bad)
Weird, since other roms have flashed just fine....

guys, one thing you MUST DO with gsm devices... back up your IMEI... this is actually stored in a partition on your device, and as of recent there is a handy little app in the themes and apps section to back it up. it is a free app found on the market and offered here on xda. before this there was a tool somebody created to back up and restore this partition
here is the app... download this, back up your IMEI (your efs partition). https://play.google.com/store/apps/...omizer&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

Thank you Addis, no need for you to upload, it seems I finally got a proper download...

If all else fails, I will just go ahead and return everything to factory settings and send it in for repair....
P.S. I should mention that I have used a tool found on the GS3 AT&T threads which has worked for my T889 to re-inject my IMEI number back... So now my IMEI number shows up again... But that's about it... Network is still listed as UNKNOWN and Status is listed as Disconnected...

Have you gone into the settings menu, more settings, mobile network and tried connecting to T Mobile that way? If that doesn't work then try to reflash stock T Mobile ROM with Odin and it should reset your network.

Hello again,
Bestplayer55 and anyone else who might need this, this is the tool I have used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997
It's written for the Galaxy S3 for AT&T and other carriers, but it worked for me on the T889 Note 2. Try to read all the instructions carefully .
One of the things you have to do is change a setting in the hidden menu which you access by dialing *#7284# using the stock dialer. In the hidden menu or PhoneUtil menu select USBSettingsMenu choose the correct mode and click ok. The correct mode for the Galaxy S3 is called RMNET + DM + MODEM mode, there was NO SUCH setting for my NOTE 2, but there is one that's very similar, so I chose that....
Then you jump to the section called IMEI Injection ... Pay attention to the way the IMEI is entered, it's a specific sequence, almost backwards....
You have the Instructions in the original thread there, or here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077805
In the end thanks to Peoplearmy for developing this tool.
P.S. I just got home from work, so I will keep trying to flash different roms, now that I got my IMEI number back... Hopefully I can restore service as well...

Thanks a lot for the suggestions, I believe I have tried them before I lost my IMEI number, but I will try them again, it won't hurt !!

Phone is going back to Samsung for repair.... Nothing I have tried has worked ... Let's see what they can do

Hey I was messing with this on my T-Mobile Note II and I changed my RAT mode to WCDMA and now I'm unable to get LTE.
I've done EVERYTHING. I've even ODIN restored it. It WILL NOT connect to LTE anymore. Nothing I do to it makes it want to connect to LTE.
What do I do? Why won't it connect to LTE anymore even after flashing the factory image?
Will erasing EFS1/2/3 do anything to help or is that a really bad idea?
I have no clue what else there is to do. I've tried loading NV defaults but it gives an error for whatever reason.

Help me Please, I'm the worse and the most stupid Noob ever!!!

Help me help me please, I'm so stupid , I have an AT&T S3 unlocked and I'm currently using Tmobile...
I rooted my phone, and I used DEBLOATER FREE, to debloat some of the stuffs in the list. I was actually being careful with the selection. Anyway, I deleted some files, and when I restarted the phone. I'm no longer getting signal. Can someone please help me. I need to get it fix soon. Any helps and advices at this point would be greatly appreciated. Please by the way, i tried to go to setting ->More setting->Mobile Networks, and it freezzed and received a message "unfortunately, settings has stopped"
I used mskip's tool to rooted my phone, if i used that tool to relfash my stock recovery, would this solve the issue?
or I'm on ICS 4.0.4 right now, If i Update the phone to JB would this solve the issue.

I rooted my phone, and I used DEBLOATER FREE, to debloat some of the stuffs in the list. I was actually being careful with the selection. Anyway, I deleted some files, and when I restarted the phone. I'm no longer getting signal. Can someone please help me. I need to get it fix soon. Any helps and advices at this point would be greatly appreciated. Please by the way, i tried to go to setting ->More setting->Mobile Networks, and it freezzed and received a message "unfortunately, settings has stopped"

just reflash stock rom via odin using this tutorial here ----> you will lose all data so find a way to back it up to your computer.

First of, thanks you so much. I don't think you attach a link for me yet. A quick update, I checked my imei, and it said null/null. so if i used mskip tool to do a efs partition would that solve the issue?
I'm downloading the ics stock rom right now, and I will keep you update. I will probably do it, via mskip's tool. What I'm wondering is, if i used samsung kies and update to JB, would this solve the issue also?
the phone is working fine, it's just i can't make call

I did more research and I think I narrow it down to EFS, mb i deleted my efs folder while debloated my phone, or some random reason...do you know any possible fix? because I didn't back it up. if I'm to re flash stock rom, do you think it will fix this issue?
I found this guide right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021

so i re-flashed the stock rom using mskip tool, and now i can make call, but now i'm getting a bunch of messages like process android.process.acore has stopped, and touchwiz home error and i can't get pass that. Please Advise
[SOLVED] thank you so much, got everything back to normal. one more questions, since i re-flashed the stock rom, I can still access CWM recovery, but as i tried to install superuser, it said I can't...this is my first time so can you lead me to the right path?

Just re root your device using the same method.

[Q] Error #500 on Google Play

So I seem to be having an issue with my newly unlocked and rooted Verizon GNex. I used the Wugs toolkit to do this, fyi. Everytime I try to download an app, I get error #500. I have read that has to do with my APN not being correct. Problem is, I forgot to do any backups for the APN before doing this, so now I don't have a backup to install. I am trying to figure out how to fix this.
1) Would doing a factory reset work? Also, would this remove Root?
2) I do have the APN backup and Restore app on my phone, but no file to restore. Anywhere I can get that? Right now I am running Android 4.2.2.
Thanks!

Seems to be widespread problem with playstore right now. Lots of folks w/different phones /locations having same problem.

Does this seem to be something with my phone then? I have been searching for a fix for a while, but here is the issues. I take this route:
Settings>More>Mobile Networks and then I am stuck because APN or Access Point Network is not listed there.
EDIT: I should add that I seem to be having no issues with getting text messages. Not sure that is important or not, but it seems like it should be.

Dude, as wtherrell said this is a general issue for many people at the moment. So not related to your phone.

Yeah, I read that. I'm just a bit nervous because I didn't have this issue before rooting and I've not done this with my Nexus before. I'll let it sit for a day or so and see if it improves.

I think backuping and then restoring ur current rom must fix this issue.
