[Q] [HELP] No imei, no baseband after flashed stock rom!

- This is the second time i lost my imei on N7105T (Vodafone Australia)
- The first time i flashed N7100 kernel for N7105T without backup efs. So, the phone showed no imei and no baseband. I decided to flash back the Vodafone AU stock rom version 4.1.1 . Finally, imei and baseband were back. So, i was so lucky. I backup efs to make sure it will not happen again.
The second time i flashed Singapore stock rom version 4.1.2 . Then, i got same trouble again means no imei and no baseband, i tried to restore efs. but nothing happen. It flashed Vodafone stock rom but it still show nothing.
Could anyone help me? I am on stressful. Sorry for my English.

If you don't have any backup you have no chance without going to the after-sales service.

Sorry but you have no solution I believe... We always say that EFS folder backup si the most important to do just after rooting.
Without warranty / backup I don't know any solution on Note II.

What did you use to flash? I ask because the same thing happened to me when I tried to use Mobile Odin, and I will sure never use it again Luckily all I needed to get back to normal state was to flash stock ROM with Odin from the PC....

Hey bro
I had the same problem.
Invest in octopusbox.
That can fix and restore your efs folder and IMEI.

I still can't believe how many people don't know this:
Backing up your EFS Folder on a N7105 will do nothing
It is a different chip in the LTE (7105) and the standard "Backup your EFS" _does not_ work.
There's a couple of other apps out there that will do it for you. We're lucky though, it's possible to re-create the EFS for the 7105, not so easy for the N7100.
But really - do people not know this at all??
Here is the tool to be using - it supports the Qualcomm chips which our lovely N7105's have. LTE support, DC-HDPA etc. Poor N7100 users...

Did you check your phone memory for a backup?? Many developers add the efs backup script to their installer.

Tutorial [noob] How to Install Clockworkmod (CWM) touch/recovery on Galaxy S3 i747.

I was looking for this for a long time and finally found it embeded in a thread here at XDA and thought it would be helpful to have a clean thread.
1) Download correct Clockworkmod (touch or regular as you wish) for your device from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
2) Place it at the root of your sdcard and rename it recovery.IMG
3) Download and install terminal emulator from the play store : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
4) Run the terminal and
type: su (press enter)
Then type: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (press enter)
Don't mess up the command or you WILL brick your phone.
5) Enjoy your Clockworkmod.:victory:
Note: I don't take any credit for this.

If you mess up the block or partition number you MAY not mess or brick your phone, you will BRICK it for sure

Thanks.. Edited.

Odin?
Wouldn't it be easier and safer to use the Odin program to load Clockworkmod? Less chance of bricking the phone?

The easiest way I've found is to root the phone via Odin, either with Chainfire's autoroot or Mr. Robinson's root 66. The results are pretty much the same but Chainfire's method won't wipe your phone.
After that install ROM manager from the play store and use that to flash CWM, or install Goo Manager from the play store and use that to flash TWRP.

Good write up and I'm not knocking you, but for noobs its better to use odin. Its a ton safer.
EDIT: I meant Odin, not fastboot. I work with a lot of devices and I forgot about it being a Samsung device. Oops.

the problem with using odin is that odin only lets you flash .tar files.... cwm for the att s3 comes as an .img and therefore odin doesn't want to flash it.
i found the easiest way is to root (follow steps in this thread), install MOBILE odin pro (tpb?), and flash the recovery.img through mobile odin pro.

There's a tar file for cwm around here somewhere

not in that post there isn't. the only tar files there are twrp recovery, and the stock recovery...

Please help! Rogers i317m Unknown IMEI and Baseband and can't access internal storage

I really need some help! I totally screw my note 2 up. I flashed the rooted stock rom onto my note 2 using odin and I made the mistake of checking Nand erase all and now I have unknown IMEI and Base band and can't seem to access internal storage at all.
I made a backup with twrp first I thought but when I restore it there is no change. I've been searching and reading for 3 days now and I can't fix it! I am at a total loss on what to do.
Any help would be totally appreciated

There is an efs.ext4.win and efs.ext4.win.md5 in my backup on my SD that twrp created but I don't know what to do with them. I did the restore through TWRP already to no success.
And I am trying the NV reader/writer but I can't get it to talk to my phone

Also, I tried to go through to procedures in the first link but when I go into the EFS folder there are no nv_data files whatsoever!

Contact the developer of the tool kit also. ..
And as I read the thread. ..it mentioned the no connection and had a work around. .
Scan every post. ..the answer is there I'm sure. .
Keep at it. ...If you have EFS files. ..you have nv_data.bin...and a way back...
You just need connection. ...check "all" drivers for the device on the PC...and you will find the trick...

Ack! Help Please!

I flashed my phone yet again, figured I would put it back on lifeless 14 from pacman and I'm having some problems:
1. The phone starts up, lets me play with it for a couple of seconds and then begins a bootloop cycle.
a. I've tried wiping and wiping cache and davlik cache in TWRP many times including re-flashing multiple times and no good. Keeps doing it.
2. Another problem has developed during all of this. It appears that my sd card/internal sd card has been wiped but this is not true. I can't see my data with the phone booted up nor can I see anything connected to windows but....
a. When in TWRP, I can go to Advanced and explore the sd card and all of my files are there.
b. However, if I go to do a restore, no nandroid backups are visible even though I can see them in the advanced menu in TWRP.
I guess my question is, how can I copy all of my files off of the sd card so I can wipe everything, recopy the files back and start over?
All my pics and backups are still there, just not usable at the moment.
Thanks so much. I'm currently dead in the water until I get this resolved.

Thanks for the reply. I did wipe system, data, dalvic, and cache and I did do a factory reset. I did it all, multiple times. All m files are there, I just can access them on the pc or in TWRP unless I go to the advanced menu and file explore. I see everything there. This is very frustrating.
Now, I can't even boot to TWRP or the system. It just keeps flashing the lg splash screen and then goes to the blank backlit screen. I've held the power button down for 20-40 seconds and it either tries to restart or shuts off but I can't get it to go to the bootloader or anything. I've always been able to fix my phones when I've messed them up but this one is killing me.
Thanks for any help you can give. I really appreciate it.

If you don't have TWRP, or fastboot, and can't boot up, then you'll need to either LGNPST. Or LGFlashtool. Flashtool had its own thread. Lgnpst you'll find on irc, or teenybin thread under additional info.

You just never know. I've never used LGFlashtool so I can't say.
With lgnpst, if you wipe in twrp you'll save SD. But if you wipe in stock recovery, you will lose it.
There might be a way to get the files off your phone using adb. But I don't know how.

Thanks man, had to run out before you replied so I stopped in at the Sprint store and the goofy thing must have been stuck in weird cycle or something because it wasn't charging all night. I left it plugged in to the wall using the original cable and block and it was completely dead. The rep plugged it in there for a few minutes and it booted right up to the lock screen without issue. I was even able to get into twrp too. I left it with them to do a manual zvc update and I'll reroot and unlock it again when I get it back in just a little bit.
I'm tired, I was up way to late messing with this last night. I appreciate all of your help. You guys have been awesome.

Wow, this has been an adventure!
The Sprint tech gave up. He could not manually flash it, wipe it, or anything. He could not get it to stop bootlooping on lifeless either. He then thought it was a bad battery or screen so he replaced both (at not charge thankfully) and finally gave up.
So my choices were to have them get me a refurb under the warranty (I don't have insurance) for $50 or borrow an upgrade from another line in which I have no desire to upgrade, it's an extra phone. Either way, Sprint cleared me for both without any penalties on my line as far as my regular upgrade date goes.
So he gave me the phone back and of course I had to mess with it.
I got it to boot to TWRP and I finally got the phone to flash pacman again, had to store the files in some obscure folder on the storage and flash it from there.
With pacman flashed, I was able to get all my files off of my sdcard!
Now, I would like to roll back to lifeless or nexOGen or something more stock. All my problems occurred yesterday when I tried this. Does pacman on 4.3 change something that won't allow me to flash back?
Thanks again for any advice.

All you had to do was wipe SD to solve all your issues.
4.3 uses a different folders it says it under sdcard/0 and stock does not that's why on stock you can't see files you had.
You can pull your files using adb pull to grab things you want to keep.

At&t Galaxy Note 4 Stuck in boot loop optimizing apps

Phone will not boot. Starting phone, makes it to the optimizing app # of 26. The first number varies, but it never makes it through the full count without rebooting. I can not boot in safe mode. I have used Odin to re-flash stock firmware 5.1.1 successfully and also factory reset after flashing. the problem still exists.

Hi, same issue with my SM-N910A. Any solution?

Same issue with SM-N910F ...

What did u do prior to this? Did u install a bad app?

I bought the phone with this issue. I thought I could simple resolve it with a clean install via Samsung Smart Switch.
I tried Stock Firmware via Odin and Smart Switch, Custom ROM via TWRP and all other Recoveries.
It would be nice to see what the phone actually does while booting.
I dont have a clue what is actually wrong. MAybe hardware, but which part...? hmm

Check if power button do not sticks. To clean use alcohol. Pull battery out, little drop on power button, press couple times. Dry with hair dryer for 2-3min. Put battery back and power on. Let us know.

@Tmobilefan906 is right no rooted apps on this device unless temp rooted on jellybean, on kitkat bootloader needs to be unlocked for root to stick without soft bricking the device.

Not only that....he's telling ppl to use exploits on this device. Any exploit will boink the boot loader, cause crashes or maybe even cause bricks.
