Rooted my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note ii (SGH-I317)
Installed custom ROM and now get no service.
Upon checking Settings -> Mobile Network
It says: INSERT SIM card Insert SIM card to access network services
About Devices has all the correct information except:
Baseband version says: UNKNOWN
How do I fix this?
Did my SIM card somehow and need to get a new SIM and call AT&T to reactivate another SIM?
My guess is that I would need stock ROM image to fix this but cannot find it.
I did find Stock Rooted I317UCALJ2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1986556)
image but still no Service.
Any help would be appreciated as my phone is a BRICK now and useless.
thanks
i have the exact same problem and can't seem to find an answer...
restore stock rom and still nothing...
did you flash a ROM & Radio for the international Note II (N7100 or N7105)? check your phone for an IMEI number; if it's not there, then you'll have to fix that first. you aren't the first to have this problem and i've read other posts where users were able to correct the problem.
I like how no one responded for 2 months.
Worst case scenario flash stock and triangle away to 0 flash counter amd take it back. Lol. Say it stopped working.

Your comment makes a lot of sense... I'm running root on stock and didn't have a problem. I've recently installed CMW thru Odin which I'm pretty sure I did right but then...I installed a kernel to be able to overclock... could the kernel have mess up my radio? I'm not able to pull up my imei... Can you point me to the right directions in order to restore my stock Rogers kernel?

I have been here. Installed the CrashRom which was probably not meant for 1317s. Though I loved the ROM, my model number was displayed as 7100, IMEI was null and mobile network would display insert sim message.
If you watched the installation of the rom.. you would have noticed that at the end it rewrites your modem/radio files. Thankfully even after a wipe, the all important NV folder was there.
I was able to find the original AT&T rom at stockroms and also the original modem files for the 1317. I did a full wipe and installed this rom back..and thankfully the radio was back online. Didn't have to flash the modem. Now with a working phone, I wanna read well before I flash my rom again.
Hope this helps. Though I am a newbie.. If you need any further information.. feel free to send me a message.

If you look in the development section in the All in One forum link, there is a link to the stock rogers ROM and radio.
I don't know if you have done this but it hasn't been mentioned in the post so I thought I would mention it.
I had the same happen to me. The radio just quit. I had a circle with a slash through it. I Odin flashed the stock tar and no luck in fact it got worse and I had to get phone replaced. I have a ton of flashing experience and this was a first for me. I think like someone mentioned above it was a mix match ROM with some pieces from the international version although it was posted as an AT&T ROM. I still have to send it back but after seeing that someone above fixed theirs I am sending a PM

Yeah that's exactly what happened to me, lol, installed the CrashRom. But thanks to this failure of epic proportions, I've learnt so much and I've succeeded in restoring my Rogers modem files
Now I got my nandroid backup, and if I mess up again, I got my Rogers stock ROM, radios, and kernel with me at all times

I know from past experience using ODIN for the Droid Charge, we had to pull the SIM before flashing. People were getting their SIMs fried sometimes. The remedy was to remove until the flash was complete. Avoid touching the contacts though.

I wanted to bump this as I am having the same issue. I tried using Odin to reinstate the stock rom and radio and still nothing.
So this happened to me and after I unrooted and factory reset I had no luck, called Att and got a new one. But I don't know why it stopped reading my sim, it. Worked in my iPhone 5. Strange

can u give any links to these forums, yes i install n7100 rom on my i317 and yes i don't have a imei.
Well my friend ...I've got to tell you up front ...that the likelihood of getting your device repaired on your own is remote at best...
You have damaged the device partitions ...and likely do not have a usable backup of the EFS folder..
The EFS contains the IMEI number used for restoration purposes...
I'm not going to tell you that a repair cannot be done..as a select few users were able to fix a bricked device...but I will suggest your best solution ...IMHO
Contact the good folks at :
mobiletechvideos.com
And let them know what you did..
They offer a complete restoration service to repair your device correctly ...and can likely do the job in about a week...
They are located in Texas, USA I believe ...and they have an excellent reputation for quality service...
Your choice of course...but if I were in your situation...I'd send the device to them in a second...
Time is money...at least for me...and although I could probably fix it...I don't have a RIFF BOX...or a JTAG ...
Others will post up with links to help you...and after you have a chance to look them over ...you can decide..
Very sorry for the damaged phone....g

t989D problem
I have a similar problem. I installed Superandroid 4.3 on a telus/koodo s2 t989D. I had to update the radio to flash the rom. I used CWM for that.
Now the info I have on the phone is
model sgh t989
android version 4.3
baseband t989uvmc6 .
The phone is not reading my SIM at all. It shows my carrier but no signal strength at all. I have read the above post. My IMIE number is still there.
Any help
Hello everyone,
I bought a T-Mobile S3 and I'm in Canada with Mobilicity. My question is, can i flash the Mobilicity rom on to the T-Mobile S3 without problems?
Thank you
You can flash T-Mobile roms.
But, you can't flash T-Mobile radios.
Just make sure the Rom you are flashing doesn't change your radio
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Sorry, I should clarify. I'm only planning to flash stock Mobilicity (a different carrier) roms on to the T-Mobile S3. Do stock roms change the radio?
That should be fine. We just see people doing it the other way a lot more.
Just do a backup before you start flashing and you should be ok.

Great, thanks. So flashing the stock or pre-rooted roms found in this section won't change the modem?
You probably won't be able to do this. I'm assuming you're talking about Odin flashing the mobilicity fw, correct? You can try it but it'll fail its device check at the beginning.
Flashing the fw, if successful, will flash the modem too. Is the phone currently working as its supposed to on their network?
If you flash a custom rom, it will not include the modem. But there are no roms based off any of the T999V firmwares that I'm aware of.
Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason you want or need to do this?

Thanks Doc,
Yes, I am talking about flashing with Odin and Mobilicity stock fw. The reason I want to do this is because the T-Mobile variant isn't able to display the added language I want, as opposed to the Canadian variant. I am still new to all this and just figured the lack of language support is from T-Mobile's rom. I've tested a Canadian S3 (i747M) and the language I want is supported correctly. Everything about the phone works fine, just need the additional language support. So I thought maybe if I flash the Mobilicity rom with its CSC on to the T-Mobile phone, I would be able to display the languages. This is all based on my current understand of how the phone works. If you can enlighten me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Im pretty sure you're correct that it'll get you the language support.
I'm wondering though if its something that could be enabled or added to the current firmware you have. If it can be it'd probably be easier than trying to get the T999V fw onto the phone. I've never really messed with any kind of language support though. Maybe someone else can answer this part of it.
If not ill try to see if there's a way to flash the fw you want to use without having to run it through the kitchen.
I'm thinking that it may be included in our stock fw already and just hidden/disabled. If so it may be possible to enable the option by editing one of the CSC files like feature.xml. no ifea if that's possible, just a thought.
Are you currently rooted?

Yes, I am currently rooted (thanks to your thread with the pre-rooted stock fw) on the T-Mobile's latest fw. I tried using the app morelocale 2 to enable additional language support and another app (created by wanam - link provided at the bottom) found on xda that displays languages that are hidden in the menu to be selected. I've also tried using root explorer and going in to the language.xml file and editing it to support more languages. All these methods only provide partial success as some content is displayed in the desired language while a lot of content isn't (menus etc). As I've said before, I tried these methods on both the US and Canadian variants, and the Canadian phone displays 'everything' in the selected language. I've read somewhere on xda that the US variants doesn't support many languages and thus lead me to the idea of flashing Canadian roms on to the phone. But now that I've learnt that flashing stock fw will change the modem, I have to be sure first whether that will affect my phone and my carrier. And if anyone is interested, the language I'm trying to add is Chinese. It just seems weird to me that such a big market is excluded on the US variants.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1925831
I think they were expecting that most people who speak chinese would be getting the international version. Probably didn't want to mess with languages that only a few people would want to have on the US variants. Just a guess.
If you are able to flash the firmware you want, it will flash the modem as stated, but you can always just flash back to whichever you are using now. I've got a thread stickied in development with all modems.
Something I had been thinking about doing too was making a deodexed, roooted, base rom from the T999V fw. Hadn't decided yet if it'd actually be needed by enough people to be worthwhile. If there's not a good way to flash the fw, ill probably go ahead with it.
I was thinking, Mobile Odin may be able to flash the fw for you. Not sure, but its worth a shot (and you can exclude the modem from the flash).
If you get the paid version it'll inject root for you, if using free version flash the root66 fw. Ill post the link to it in a min.

You'll need the flash kernel from post 8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22234918&postcount=8
Make sure you download the correct one!
MobileODIN_FlashKernel_T999-v2.0.apk
Install mobile odin first, then the flash kernel.
When you run it press Choose File and select the fw you downloaded. Then towards the top press modem, then where it asks internal or external sd, choose clear. Do the same for recovery if you wish.
Then flash firmware!
That's it!
Let me know if it works or not, or if you prefer not to use it.

Agreed. Generally, I think people who speak Chinese would get the international version I guess. But I thought the international model doesn't support the AWS 3G bands T-Mobile is using? Really no choice but to get the T999.
Sorry I'm a little confused. Using MobileOdin, I should try to flash to Mobilicity's rom and then flash the modem back to T-Mobile's? And the flash kernel, what is that for? Is it something needed to use MobileOdin free and Pro?
Thanks for the help so far Doc. Greatly appreciated.

You have to manually install the flash kernel for the free version. Pro version does it automatically. Basically its a temporary kernel that M.O. uses in place of recovery and kernel to flash things locally on device.
With mobile odin, you'd flash the root66 firmware. But one of the great things about it is you can then de-select parts of it such as the modem. This way it'll flash everything but not touch your current modem or whatever else you de-select.
Hope that makes sense.

Awesome, thanks for the clarification. I think I'll try that.
Cool, let me know if it goes. If not I've started building a rom from the T999V firmware, but I've got to leave and probably won't have it up till late tonight.

So I went ahead and used Mobile Odin to flash the 66root Mobilicity fw and excluded the modem. Had a bit of a scare when I got stuck at the Samsung logo but I just booted into recovery and cleared data and cache and gave it some time to start up again. Everything is great. It displayed Chinese flawlessly (built-in apps, menus etc). The only other thing that changed was the cellular data indicator. On T-Mobile rom I've only seen 4G displayed. After the flash, it displays 3G and when I open a browser or do anything requiring data, it changes to H+. I don't know what kind of effects may result from this but seeing as how 4G just meant H+ anyways in this case, I don't think I need to worry. However, only time will tell whether the flash was 100% compatible. I can't thank you enough Doc. I was banging my head against the wall for the last week thinking I should have just bought a Canadian version of the S3 but with your help I was able to have what I wanted. Now... if only 4.1.1 was released for Mobilicity... sucks to have to downgrade from JB to ICS.
Also a side note... comparing the roms from the different carriers, T-Mobile sure has a crap load of bloatware compared to Rogers and Mobilicity.
I'm on videotron, T999V
the H+ stands for HSPDA+ which is what 4G actually is .. 3G+
the T999(V) runs on the AWS spectrum and currently there is no carrier supplying more than 4G .. altho tmobile claims that will have LTE over AWS in 2013
welcome to the wonderful world of the Canadian small 3, bloatware free, language enhanced, stock roms lol
I am curious.. when you going into More Settings, Tethering ... can you run the native tethering and get screens like this ??

That's awesome! I'm glad to know Mobile Odin will do this!
As mentioned, the change in what it shows your connection as is normal. You now have it the way it should be in fact. Tmobile changed it to always show 4G to go along with their advertising. If they let it show H+ or 3G it'd be harder to make the claims they do.
On the bright side, rumor has it you guys should all be getting JB in the next few weeks. So at least you know its coming. Personally, I found nothing wrong with ICS. There's not a lot you'll probably miss and the lack of bloat may actually help make up for it.
Sorry I forgot to mention that if you go backwards you will have to do a data wipe.
Glad I could help out man! Enjoy! :thumbup:

Id imagine so, as long as Mobilicity allows it. I don't think there's very much different between the 3 carriers builds. Probably some csc stuff is all. But I may be very wrong here!

Ya, most 4G is just rebranded H+ and not true 4G like LTE. I figured it was just a rom specific thing to choose what to display, 4G or H+ because even with the Rogers phone, it chose to display 4G when not using LTE. The only thing that set off my concern was that the phone just didn't stay connected to H+. It toggles back to 3G when I'm idle or not using data requiring apps. Rogers just got JB 2 days ago. Seeing as Mobilicity is a smaller company it might take a while.... :crying: but you're right, not missing out on that much.
@cLogic:
Confirmed that I get the same screens as you do for tethering.
You are experiencing normal operation. It always has done this you just never saw it. It saves battery and bandwidth. Once you start a data transfer it should jump pretty quickly to H+. It can get annoying, but youll get used to it.

Edit - nvm, reread your post and it answered my question.
When I was using Mobile Odin, a question occurred to me while flashing. Since Mobile Odin injects root, couldn't I have just used an official stock fw instead of the pre-rooted one?
hey guys, like the title says, ive flashed with odin fw 4.1.2 onto my t989d and everything went fine except for the fact that i dont have any signal now, it cuts in and out, when its on it shows no bars and quickly doesnt work again.... i flashed to 4.0.4 and that loaded fine with bars showing, but i really wanted jb for battery saving purposes. im a newb at this and any help would be greatly appreciated! i tried updating with kies from 4.0.4 and it said my firmware was not supported or something... build number is jzo54k.t989uvmc6
baseband is t989dtllg2. i also went into recovery mode, flashed cache and flashed the internal and still the same... please help guys! any help is greatly appreciated!
Try flashing back to an older radio. I I see you are on uvmc6 radio which is the newest.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400

I think you need to manually set up your apn settings. I always have to on 4.1.2.
Also, I had to use the new T-Mobile radio, the Telus tlle4 didn't work for me. Hopefully when Telus puts the update out they'll have a new radio. The tlle4 had better reception. The new radio works OK tho.

sorry, but how would i go about flashing these radios to my phone? do i have to be root? i really dont want to root or put cwm or anything on my phone... i just want it to be clean t989d official firmware...
I am not sure how you flash a radio if you aren't rooted with cmw or twrp recovery.
You would probably have new radio if you installed stock 4.1.2 and more than likely need to still set up your apn settings manually ....did for Telus anyway.
Just Google "jelly bean add apn settings Telus" or koodo, whatever you're on. The settings after installing stock are wrong.
Sorry, yes you said you have new radio. So should just need the correct apn settings.

Indeed it is

So I gave it a go...
It got even worse, it can't keep data connection on stable.
I'm writing this runing because the signal might drop anytime --'
I installed it thinking it would get reverted when I reinstall the AOKP Rom I've been using. Well... the signal is dropping all the time! It doesn't even stay connected 90% of the time, I get the H+ symbol for a second and it drops.
So I'm thinking that the ROMs don't touch the radio? Even if I installed fresh the AOKP Rom I was using b4, the radio stuff is still the new one?
If so, how do I revert. I didn't backup because I thought it would get reverted when I reinstall the Rom.

Life saver!
Thank You I'll give it a go and see if my signal goes back to how it was =P
Am I right thinking flashing a ROM doesn't change the radio?

it wasn't even opening MediaFire before, a problem on my end probably. my internet connection is dodgy at best at the moment
Question: can I flash the new radio if I have locked bootloader?
I still have issues with 3g connectivity here in Spain with Movistar operator: 3g connection disables randomly data and voice signals. So I´m forced to use only GSM, and turn to 3g when needed.
I would like to try to flash this new radio to see if there could be a patch inside to solve this issue, but I have 2 questions:
Can I do it with locked bootloader using safestrap?
If things get worse, would restoring a complete backup also restore the radio I had?
Thanks in advance

Thanks a lot. I´ve just flashed the new radio, after having made a complete backup. Let´s see what happens. I´ve put the settings again on GSM/UMTS. Let´s wait.
Thanks again in any case and regards

No way. Still the same problem with the new radio. I can only use "GSM only" connection if I want the signal not to be cut.
Desperating.
Hello i have a D2ATT and am currently running Slim-d2lte-4.4.4.build.6-OFFICIAL-5242 on the latest kt747 kernel with twrp. i have never been on the 4.3 firmware. i have this issue where my cell signal randomly drops to no service and have had this problem since i got the phone. i originally thought it might be the phone or my sim card but after updating my dads lg optimus pro g to the latest firmware his phone started doing it too. anyway i was wondering what all modems i can flash to try and fix this problem. i was on the lk3 modem and i just flashed to the lem modem but the problem seems to persist. so i assume its safe to flash to any modem between those. my question is can i flash the mg2 or mjb modems without bricking my phone? has anyone else had this problem and solved it my flashing a specific modem?
Well if two completely different phones do it its probably a true signal issue.....do you sit around 1-2 bars?

That is I possibility but my phone was doing it months before his and his only started once he updated. The thing is it used to work fine in a city 2 hours away but now both our phones are doing it almost everywhere. And actually I usually sit around 3 to 4 and it will drop to nothing where the triangle is empty not just greyed out. It will do this every 5 minutes or so for about 30 seconds to a minute then go back to great signal without even moving the phone. It will work great during a call but as soon as the call ends signal drops to nothing. My girlfriends iPhone 4 doesn't do this nor does my grandads low end android phone. Like I said I would just assume its something wrong with my device if my dads didn't start doing it after an update to KitKat official. BTW all phones are gsm 1 is at&t (my dads) and the other 3 are net10 (prepaid that uses at&t towers)
Hmmmm I don't know then....have you made sure that you got the most recent apns?

its all good man. i wouldnt mind doing it to test i just detest touchwiz roms so i really dont want to get stuck with a phone that can only run touchwiz. i keep finding conflicting information on whether or not it will brick my phone.
I don't know I got my s3 preloaded with mjb so I don't know about switching from Lem to mj2 etc.....
If you are on NE4 firmware, with a touchwiz rom, I know flashing the 4.3 modem will not brick, but it will not work (no signal). Its just a guess until confirmed, but I'd bet the same will happen with other modems and roms (dont know for sure on cm/aosp though) This basically means you are stuck using the NE4 modem im afraid....

Once I find someone to test it, and provided it works as it should, ill be posting the odin flashable full NE4 firmware. You might want to try that if you see me post it. Otherwise, im not really sure what else you could try...except maybe flash a different rom (4.3 roms would be goo
