Had the same problem as you did, I always made backups and indeed a tar.gz backup, Unpack the backup and copy it to the efs folder(Root), also make a backup of the current efs folder so you can't sink further. You'll need root explorer for this with read/write.

I tried..still the same..
I used root explorer and copy to the efs folder and then restart..

Latest version of omega rom? Did you update modem or Flash a kernel?
Please post screenshots of your "about device" page.
Most likely you simply have a kernel/modem combination which is incompatible. Should be easy enough to fix if we can get you back to a matching configuration.

Heres one solution to the imei problem on n7100. When you flash a new rom your efs containing imei wifi bluetooth etc gets corrupted/repartitioned this is apparently a fix by flashing the modem posted and a compatible kernel. I will warn you though another guy had the same problem and every guude tutorials we followed did not work and his n7100 was left a brick. In the end he used triangle away flashed a stock rom and unrooted and it had to be sent back to service centre..

You need to flash the modem in the link via odin.. im not sure if you then manually need to extract your backup of efs back to root. You also need an upto date kernel. Im not sure which but it needs to be a recent one..
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium

You need to do things in this order:
1. Flash a stock firmware older than DME6
2. Root again using cf-autoroot or similar
3. Use an app such as root Explorer to copy from your efs backup into the /efs folder on your phone.
I've done this at least 3 times now as I often test new roms and the imei is always messed up until after I restore the efs backup I've had in dropbox since the very day I purchased this phone.
I broke my s3 by failing to back up efs and I'd never make that mistake again.

[Q] Help with my note 2 and my network!!!

Hey guys and devs!I need your help,I buy note 2 n7100 no contract free bring home used everything is ok then I have to wish to flash with latest fw from samsung,but in my phone was fw n7100xxdlj2 csc OXF Open Europe,then I with Odin flash n7100xdlk7 csc DBT Germany and everything goes ok but when phone booted I dont have network,everything work but no connection,I take and bring in service and they fixed,but now I cant flash anything via Odin via recovery?Anybody know solution I wait but I need help and very important thing phone no locked maybe some with bootloader or something alse?Please guys help,phone work I have connection but cant nothing to flash becouse I scare again to lose connection and again go in service?Please help!Thank you very much.
You cannot flash via Odin or via recovery? Is the device rooted (check for supersu in the app-drawer)?
You can always flash via Odin IMHO with your computer. There are also prerooted firmwares available here. Just check the forum.
I can flash via Odin and recovery and all proces is ok but when phone booting I dont have network and I check with some app from play store phone unlocked?
You must have broken efs
Anyway root your device and make efs backup. (read post #4 in first line on my signature)
It will be better if you make nandroid backup too on ext sd card.
Then you can flash any stock rom, in case you get issue then restore efs Or nandroid.
PS : such issue happens once in while, nothing to worry, just keep efs backup always and flash rom, once you are on xda, you can't keep yourself away from flashing )

Just bought note 2 - Have I broke it already!? Help please.

Hello,
So bought my note 2 from amazon, international version, sim free.
So i rooted it and fired a custom firmware on it.
Decided i prefer having the functionality of the s pen and wanted to reinstall the original f/w.
So managed to get an original samsung firmware (BTU) csc.
All is well on it apart from my sim card does not work in it (no service).
works fine in my old phone still.
It doesn't allow me to update it over the air and kies is a nightmare.
So im stuck with a tablet at the moment that I cant update.
I think I may not have the correct original firmware but I dont know how to determine which one will work!
Any input would be appreciated....
Thanks
Dan
You seem to have stumbled upon the problem introduced by Samsung in their newest kernels (they are used in newer ROMs).
The kernels cause IMEI number to not be recognised after flashing old firmware once the new one was installed. The only recourse is to root again and flash back one of the newer roms (Phoenix, Omega or Android Revolution will do nicely) or try to find original Samsung firmware for your region, but it has to be one of DM6, DF1 or DG1 at the end of the name and flash it using Odin.
Look here and remember to match your phone model number as well as firmware region.

Efs partition is where your phones unique identifiers like imei are stored. If it gets damaged or wiped and you have no backup then your phone is a brick, pure and simple.

Try and Flash an official dme6 or dmf firmware as per above poster. If imei is still blank then your phone is a brick.
I don't know why there are so many how to root blogs on the Internet and none of them tell you how to back up efs or why it's critical. It's a complete tragedy.
I've had to restore imei once to save my gs3. Was very lucky I'd flashed an omega rom earlier and the aroma installer asked me if I'd like to do a backup and told me it's important. I heeded the developers advice and backed up said files to drop box. Now I always do it immediately after rooting - all custom recoveries give an option to back up efs.
I hope it's not too late, it's sad for people to have to learn the hard way, best of luck.

Ive just read that if you flash the latest modem you should be alright. The post to guide you on this is by Dr Ketan in the original android development section.
I dont think your phone is bricked I think if you flash the very latest modem you should be alright. Just remember when flashing anything to your phone you should always make a nandroid back up first and copy it to your pc just in case for safe keeping plus a copy of efs folder. I hope for your sake you can sort this. And remember to read thoroughly all instructions before anything else. Look here and click the read this first it should help you..

Still won't connect to my phone network.
I does show networks now at least!
Emergency calls only.
So if I install the new modem on this old firmware would that work?

I'd suggest you backup your efs before trying anything else.
Does your baseband version display now?
If you've already had your baseband updated to the new versions then you can't use it with Perseus kernel. The new modems are interdependent to the new kernels and Perseus hasn't been updated in awhile.
If baseband is newer one then you need an up to date kernel and flashing a newer firmware will obviously address this.

You have nothing to lose at the moment your phone is a semi brick. I think by reading Dr Ketans guide you will be able to get that phone working again. I take no responsibility from the following link but I think you need to give it a go. If you havent backwd up your efs folder than this link may help you. Id say download this latest modem and recovery and again I take no responsibility for your device.

i don't have backup of EFS
i am running custom rom and works fine i get my real IMEI but when i install n7100 stock rom with kies or odin i get 0049 fake IMEI and i can't use my phone for calling and all
i want to go back to stock so bed but i cant trying everyday LOL
help if you know how to do it...
Only way to go back is to have previously backed up your efs partition, while you were on your stock rom. Then once you downgrade to older version modem/rom simply restore your efs.

Flashing latest ME6/MF2/MG1 should solve this.

And don't flash 4.1.1 , it can brick device.

Please stop creating duplicate threads for the same issue. In any case, changing your IMEI is a banned topic on XDA as its illegal in most countries,
You should have taken a backup of your efs partition before you started messing around (this is in all the guides). If you didn't then that's your fault and your loss.

If you use the search feature and tap in "lost imei" all your questions will have answers. It looks like you have an n7100. And by the look of things you were on mc3 4.1.2 and flashed an older rom of 4.1.1 I dont think you can do that..

for that u will need to flash stock rom via odin. do not panic. this thing has become very common now. search in android development section of note 2.guides are available todouble bled it ok. just do not panic.read the guides carefully and double check what u r doing.
I had a problem like this except it happened when I flashed a rom. The rom corrupted my SD Card so I lost my backup and even after flashing stock it did not work. Eventually I sent it in to Samsung. Now I have learnt my lesson to keep a backup on multiple locations

Go to a alternate servisse centre and ask to change your IMEI with a Box! only way to solve the problem! tried all that is possible and this is the only solution! it´s not about crime we are talking here! it´s about solve a problem!

It is because of downgrade of your rom.
Some time downgrade results in conflict modem and efs data corruptions.
It recommend to immediate take a backup of efs files after root.
Now do fiollowing steps
1. flash DMC3 full rom( Not only modem).
2. Wipe data and cache.
3. Wipe dalvike cache.
4. Reboot device.
It may solve your problem.

Flash mg1 or simply look N7100 all in one on my signature, look post #6 and download modem for mg1 (it will have kernel, recovery and modem) you need modem only for network issue but I recommend to flash all three as your current rom I think not sds patched.

[Q] Custom 4.3 Rom with all functions for gt-n7105

hey
some days ago I put cyanogenmod 10.2 on my loved note II
but I was a bit shocked, that nearly all functions did not work,
so I deleted it, now I'm searching again for a nice rom on android 4.3
which do you prefer?
(can't install my backup right now, think my folder structure is wrong -_-
used rom manager, and it can't find my backup >.> any ideas?)
greetings

ps.: ****in' t-mobile germany won't release an official update to 4.3 >.<

Backing up and restoring is Done by Cwm, and DittoNote3 for GT-N7105 is really good, give it a try and don't forget to flash the mj5 bootloader for the wifi to work.

Smack the thanks if I helped.

thanks for your reply,
but have another big problem now O_O
the rom deleted my IMEI number, so my simcard can not be mounted.
just went back to the backup i made with rom manager, but it didn't really fix it
any ideas?!
:crying:

Alot of people have encountered your current problem and they fix it by restoring their efs.img backup but since you dont have one [i guess] , try researched z3x, it has solved alot of people's imei problems.

Please back up ur efs now so you won't encounter such problem again , the back should be an .img file and sized about 20 mb.

Ok so you download DittoNote3 for GT-N7105 and Mj5 boot loader, flash the rom using custom recovery and see if the wifi works, and if it doesn't work (most likely) just flash the Mj5 bootloader through odin, then if you wanna flash a kernel, download the desired one and flash it using custom recovery, before doing all those stuff, make sure that you backed up your efs and your custom recovery back up.

I guess so, if you won't mess up while installing the rom, you won't have trouble.

I didn't know there was a bootloader file for the n7105, I thought the only way to get the bootloader was to flash stock 4.3 rom

edit:
it worked
but no wifi like you said
how to flash the mj5 bootloader?
any tutorials for gt-n7105?
did you mean mk5 ?
(sorry I should read more concentrated,
so the chances I get wifi are pretty low? )
edit:
found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537372
u think the LionROM N7105 4.3 Stock Kernel will help?
