Hello everyone,
i've flashed the newest version of the PhilZ Touch custom recovery and now my note 2 can't find my sim-card...
Custom recovery found @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103
I flashed it from version 4.35 to 4.63 so the custom recovery was installed and working before.
After reboot i didn't had the possibility to unlock my sim-card (entering PIN-code).
Now i have no network connection at al (obviously)
Everything else is (so far) working...
I'm using the rooted stock rom
greetings,
p.s. i would reply in the specific topic but i can't yet.
Try another recovery or phone.

Is it, in any way, possible that a sim-card gets affected when you flash a custom rom?
I'm thinking about this question because my sim-card broke just after flashing without touching it...
(no need to touch your sim-card to flash, but i haven't done anything else where i would have needed to remove/change it)
Its probably just coincidence but it's strange that it just happend after flashing.
(sorry if my english is hard to understand )
greetings from Belgium
ye same problem here, tell me when u found out to get it back so I can use that method =p
I've had no problems after upgrading the recovery.
I would suggest you post in PhilZ's thread. He is very active and will help find out what happened.

Well, i've changed the sim-card (have one for data only...) and that one worked fine...
I tried it in another phone too but i was thinking that it wasn't working because i used an adapter to have a normal sim-card and not the micro-sim format so i did the thing mentioned above...
I decided to sent my parents to a Belgacom support center (one of belgians telecom operators) to ask a new one.
I need to work this weekend and i didn't had the opportunity to go myself, it's stupid to walk with a phone without the ability to call/send messages :silly:...
I just inserted the sim-card my parents got from the center and i've recieved al my missed messages so i know that the new one is working fine.
This is undoubtedly strange that it's possible that a sim-card gets affected/broken when changing/updating custom recovery.
I'm "glad" (if you understand what i mean) that i'm not the only one who is having this problem.
Can someone with experience explain to me and the others what could have been the problem?
Edit: can't post yet in his thread due to too low count of messages
Edit2: i'm sorry that i haven't any easy sollution...
Yours sincerely,
what do you actually get from philz? i can't even feel a butterfly flies in my tummy..
in my opinion, the perseus one is the best choise.

Nothing special?
I don't know why you are asuming that i need to get something from it...
I'm just saying in this thread that there has been a problem with the sim-card after flashing this custom recovery .
So i only wanted to say "Hey, after performing this, that went wrong, how to find a solution"
This has nothing to do with liking a custom recovery.
I'm happy for you that you like the perseus one but this one was aproved by someone to solve another problem (and worked)...
I can't understand the point of your reply in this topic, it has nothing to do with not finding/reading the sim-card
p.s.: my wording may seem wrong but well meaning, my english is not perfect since it is not my native language
ahhh .... the device I was rooting was simlocked, he didn't say anything ffs.. that's why
@op try flashing a stock rom(remove sim card), then factory reset in recovery, then flash philz, then flash w/e u want

Please Note: No other method listed in the GN2, GS3 forums work for this particular problem. I, as well as a few others have had this happen when flashing different ROMs. I have no idea what causes it but I do have an idea as to how to fix it. I just can't because what I need seems to be disabled in the phone.
Also, I did make a backup of my EFS and a restore does not fix this particular problem.
Problem #1:
After flashing a ROM, the GN2 is unable to activate the radio/modem. The following read "Unknown" in the "About Phone" menu:
Baseband, Network, Mobile Network Type, MEID, IMEI, ICCID.....etc. Basically anything to do with the mobile network.
Problem #2:
When booted up and running, PC will not recognize the phone as usual (unable to copy files to phone).
Problem #3:
And probably the biggest problem: ADB does not recognize the phone. ADB debugging is enabled on the phone in Developer Options but the icon on the notification button doesn't appear. Nor does ADB recognize the phone in recovery. So therefor I cannot transfer files this way either. "nvbackup/nvrestore" can not be used because of this either.
The following methods have all been tried and have failed. Yes, I know what I am doing,

Well I was testing a rom for someone, I wont tell which rom but he said it was the "in call recorder" he added. He's got it fixed now but it did wipe everything. I managed to restore it back to stock with no root but it bricked after that. Now I see why carriers dont like to unlock bootloaders cause of people bricking their phone and taking them back

You care to clarify which ROM you flashed in particular caused this to happen so that we don't replicate your problem? I want to assume it's your own ROM but just want to make sure.

Uhh.. no offense to anyone, but if we have a rogue ROM that's bricking phones, we need to know in case it's floating around somewhere.
Also, (and again, not to start any negativity, just curious) the general feel of this thread was random bricking from flashing any ROM, which is very scary and cause for alarm. But according to the quoted post I'm gathering now that this is an issue directly related to accidents within a specific ROM?

Which ROM had the "In Call Recorder"? I've been looking for a replacement to that functionality after dropping HTC/ Qualcomm with the 2WCR patch on the kernel. ..

You cant flash a s3 rom the partitions are different. Even the partitions forbthe international note 2. Tmo. Att. Verizon and sprint note 2 are different.
Try flashing the stock tar from sex tape or viper boy. This should fix those issues. Then update the phones prl. Profile. Software. And firmware. And see if u have 3g and everything else.
Then start over.

Was it mine? I can tell you that if any of the previous stuff happened to you, it wasn't from the ROM. Could have been a bad download, coinsidence, etc. The ROM flash wouldn't have caused it.

Why in first case did you flash a ROm which isn't intended to be for your device?
Well you killed your EFS partition (bricked)
I hope you mad a EFS backup BEFORE you flashed. So you can restore it and all will be fine.
You could try the Stock Firmware via Mobile Odin if it fixes your EFS problem. No Guarantee here, sometimes it dsoes work and sometimes not.
Good luck to you

I believe the reason you are experiencing this issue is because this new firmware you flashed doesn't contain a custom radio and the n7100 firmware did. You will need to find a n7105 radio, flash that through CWM or TWRP and you should be back in business mate.

thanks for everyone...
Would be glad to help you but you seem to have skipped the first rule : read, read, read before you do anything else. You even admitted that this is your first Samsung device, so why did u assume that everything should have been htc like ?
Anyhow, you can try to flash the newest 4.1.2 update for the 7105, even though I fear that your problem is your efs folder, and since this is unique for each device, no flashing any rom will put it back in place.

yah.. i have flash that ROM just now..
but, why my signal is verry in poor level? only showing 2 bar?
im sorry, im not experienced with samsung devices
Since you said that the phone is from Australia and Optus you may want to flash its original firmware back in place :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-N7105&pcode=OPS&os=1&type=1#firmware
If you do not use the phone in Australia you may want to find a firmware (if available) for your device/geographical region.

I am facing the same problem you had before, however when i try to Odin the stock 4.1.1 firmware back to the phone, it stops at the Samsung logo when restarting. I have to force back to recovery mode to flash the omega back to have it start again. Can you please tell me the steps you did on putting back to stock firmware? thanks
If you haven't yet reflashed the EFS partition (don't do that, ever ! unless you have a good reundant set of backups), you actually don't need to reflash to stock firmware at all (and I doubt that it'd do any good anyways. It just puts back a generic EFS with the files set at default values, but certainly can't put back the data you had in your own device's EFS, this is unique to each phone).
Just head on over to the Galaxy S2 forums and look for a thread called "Restore your IMEI in 9 steps" (something like that. There's actually quite a number of threads describing the same procedure, you can find them by searching "samsung restore imei" in all forums, works just as well).
I had the same problem the other day (and no backup of course, silly and impatient me... ), it worked like a charm..
It's topics like this that i know that People Will get Hurt on. Come on, read and study before doing anything on a smartphone. There's a reason why android doesn't come with administrator rights from factory.

Hey guys... My friend bought an HTC One X second hand. It is rooted with what seems to be stock 4.0.3 Sense 4.0. The phone is also S-OFF and everything.. I will post pictures of it.
So here's the deal:
My friend was watching a movie but suddenly he felt as if the screen wasn't rotating... Now (According to AndroSensor App) the magnetic field, orientation, gyroscope, accelerometer etc... In short.. All of the GRAVITY SENSORS and the orientation sensors aren't working.. They are DETECTED by the app but say "Waiting for event"
tried hard resetting and everything. I have put many Custom ROMs in phones before. So i can flash ROMs etc if i have to
I have attached the pictures about everything and need help.. Alot appreciated thanks.

you should update it first, that is a very old version, you should have updates available. as it is s-off you can flash anything you want but I think you will need to update the hboot first, once that is done you have a lot of options available to you

Go to settings and check for an update. What we all recommend is that you send it to HTC, all untampered One Xs should still be in warranty, so send it to them, if it can't be fixed they'll send you a One X or a One X+, or sometimes they could send a HTC One if you're lucky :/

Oh i'll get right on it when i get my hands on the device can i request you to stay put to this thread? Cuz i will report back here
if you flash a custom recovery you can do anything you want, ie flash a rom, sense or no sense, or flash back to stock and because you are s-off you can even change your cid to install an update from a different region.
this can go on and on and people are starting to repeat themselves and you have had all the information you need to move forward. so what you need to do, as you say you cannot fix under warranty, is :- let the phone update via ota, this will update everything including the rom, the version of sense and the hboot. then once it is finished with all ota's available you can install a custom recovery( I recommend philz touch recovery or the latest twrp) and then you can flash all the rom's or mods you like.
and if you find you still have a problem with sensors check @HTC Venom signature for a possible solution

Try to do the hard reset after couple of days. Once you feel your device is warm enough. Chances to get them back gets better with time

i got them back except for temperature sensor....althought i did this thing several times, but once it worked out...i restarted the phone by long pressing the power button, even after the TURN OFF menu appears...on the start screen pressed volume down button to go in safe mode, all sensors started working, then i restarted mobile to come in normal mode.
working fine uptil now, i dont have restarted or powered off after that. so dont know if they will keep working after restart or again same problem will occur
all the people having same problem, just keep on trying restarts, safe mode, factory reset etc etc most probably they will start working. its just hit and trial

If you flashed wrong custom ROM via recovery won't be a problem, just reflash any other compatible stock ROM then your problem will be fixed. BUT if you flashed wrong stock ROM via ODIN and you will end up brick. You need a JTAG to revive your phone.
Its pretty hard to destroy your phone completely just by flashing another rom.
Flashing bootloader through recovery is a bad idea.
Repartitioning your device in odin, with files not specific to your device, is a bad idea
Dramatic over-clocking with increased voltages, can be a bad idea
Dropping your device is a bad idea.
Bumping a thread without waiting more than 24 hours, is a bad idea

Locked my boatloader by mistake now it won't boots I need help ASAP.... I'm losing my mind over here I need someone to help me please for the love of God somebody... Just bought this phone for like $1,000 and now I'm looking at a ****ing brick......
no worries, you technically cant brick it that easily.
Check the MSM thread for your exact model and follow the steps get it back and running again.
^ Yeah an MSM flash will have you right as rain. Just wondering how the you locked the bootloader "by mistake" that seems like a difficult mistake to make.
was trying to restore and forgot how op works lol...i got it fixed now. while your here, how can i flash twrp and flash a rom? having issues with this now..
Anybody have any ideas of how I can ROM my phone? Been sitting here trying to do it for the last I don't know how long now
So I'm not sure about YOUR phone, if you have a recovery partition you can just flash recovery, if you don't have a recovery partition then you need to fastboot boot twrp first. And there are a few ways to flash a rom, my recommendation would be Fastboot Enhance I personally haven't tried it yet but it seems to work pretty good and even though it's in the 8T category it should work fine. Now one thing that is noteworthy with Fastboot enhance though is that it flashes the current slot instead of the inactive slot.
