Did you try a complete wipe (data, cache, system, dalvik)? After a fresh install your problem should be solved.

Sorry for the late reply. Does the problem still persist? If so, does the phone still have a valid imei (0049 ... ... is NOT a valid one!). Serial Number differs from 000000...? Do you have a backup of your efs partition?

What about flashing a stock rom with odin????

Sounds like this app messed up your efs folder mate. That's why you're in factory mode. If you didn't have a backup if efs your phone is now a brick. Congratulations. I'm sorry to say it but that's the risk when you go getting apk files from dodgy sources.

You can try to flash a stock rom with 3 md5 files PDA, Modem and CSC, and also you can use Odin 3.07 with Re-partition and Nand Erase All and PIT file to not brick your phone.
So that way I think you can erase everything. Maybe.

Yes you're right but this can format the phone for clean install and he can restore his EFS if possible.

Laggy / Slow Note 2 even after stock restore

Hi guys, so I have a problem with my Note II. I installed a rom yesterday which is where these problems seem to start from. The phone is glitchy, and when the screen is left of for more than 2 minites or so, it wont turn on unless I remove the battery. Also, after I re-boot the battery level is normally 10% less than before. Another issue I had is that I couldn't boot into recovery after flashing this rom however I have no fixed this by using Odin to re-flash CWM recovery.img. But even after going back to by stock backup I made in CWM before I flashed this rom, the problem still persistes (Laggy, freezes)
All I can think of is that this Rom (Omega 3.0) uses AROMA to install, could that be a issue?
Any Ideas anyone? Im not worried about any of the files on the device just want to get it sorted!
Thanks

Not at all its as easy as a cupcake
Just know the terms for it
Would you hear a brotherly advice (which i would do myself?)
Use the superwipe script from Android Revolution HD and install mike's ROM. It should have the same effect as odin wipe, only better...
Mike's roms are known to be the best ever. They are totally stock! just extreme perfomance...
So its better thsn going back to stock

Right okay that sounds like a plan, I dont know if I will be able to keep the phone on long enough to download all thta and as I cant connect it to the computer unless its in download mode :/ I could give it a go though, could you post a link to what I need please? Yes, im a complete noob
Put the ROM of your choice on internal sdcard (I also put the same zip on the external just in case something goes wrong)
Make the appropriate backups of apps, data, contacts, sms, pictures and whatnot.
Reboot into recovery and do a full wipe, explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909868
Flash ze ROM.
Edit: In CWM, this is how I do a full wipe.
Format system
Format data
Format cache
Format preload
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Sometimes I also do the "fix permissions" at this point.
Then I flash the ROM.

You can find the superwipe script from this forum too...
But be sure to put your downloaded rom on SD card, not internal SD...
Well thats my way which i told you you have two choices...you can follow the one of the boy above to see if it helps too?

Try to go back up on stock rom, restore your EFS (if you backed it up!) and claim warranty? there must be a solution with sammy for this...
This isnt normal... you can try :good:
I think thats what im gonna have to do I did try superwipe and still nothing. Is there a easy way to go back to stock? Using odin? Will I have to delete CWM for this? :S

Yes yes deleting CWM is important for that.
And i just found the backup/restore EFS tool for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922473
Yup you have to go to stock using ODIN...
Try to flash ALIH? I dunno...i thinkthat would be better and less suspicious

Atleast first flash stock rom from sammobile.com (not the rooted ones here)... And then restore EFS...
Then apply check: try to start cwm recovery :good:

Why restoring EFS?? Also i dont think that restoring EFS is ging to erase cwm
Stock roms from sammobile (full roms) include recovery.img, so after flashing with Odin he is going to have stock recovery.After that through stock recovery, wipe cache+wipe data/factory reset.
And before visiting repair center, flash stock rom from sammobile and check your phone if problem is still there. I think that somehow with the custom rom and restoring cwm backup you f***ed up software

Restoring EFS because he is going to give his Note in warranty...
Until you backup and restore your original EFS, samsung keeps the track of the number of times you flash so it does not accept warranty.
Restoring EFS is the only chance to claim warranty.
restoring EFS doesnt remove recovery.. hmmm...
Is there any way to remove recovery?

In order to remove cwm recovery, just flash a full stock rom with pc odin
Are you sure about warranty and EFS? In order to backup/restore original EFS you need root, so one way or another you need to flash one or more times
Are you 100% sure?

Reboot loop [SOLVED]

So my sister recently bought a used phone running 4.1.2 and it started rebooting on its own for some reason or another. I am able to get into twrp 2.3.1.1 recovery and do a factory reset but the reboot loop problem still remains. I tried the other options in the wipe menu like wiping the internal storage but it says its unable to mount /data. Even in the Mount Menu i am unable to check the Mount data box.
I've also got the hurricane v4 rom downloaded but i am unable to install it for some reason. Is it because i am unable to mount the /data? Would a Format data work to install the hurricane rom? I've tried to download the 4.3 stock rom but not successful due to such a crappy internet connection. Luckily the hurricane v4 rom that i got from here supported the resume download function.

I also have note 2 with this strange reboot problem.
The OS doesn't matter at all for me (check that also).
If the problem will still remain, then I must say that it's a hardware malfunction.
Mine has it too, and does some random reboots at any time, specially when it has been used for longer time.

Go to mounts and storage and click on format/system, format/cache, format/preload , format/data and format/data and data/media (/sdcard)<--- this will format your internal storage,so back up if you have anything saved on it..NOTE: Do NOT format storage/sdcard1 cause this is your external sd card if you accidentally do format it you will lose all the contents on your sd card.If you still want to format your external sd card by this way make sure you have a card reader handy to be able to transfer the downloaded ROM and other contents on your sd card.
Now go back to main menu and click on advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache ,once again go back to main menu and click on wipe cache partition and go ahead and wipe it.At the very end go back to main menu and click on wipe data/factory reset and choose Clean to install a New ROM.Done.You have successfully performed all the wipes.Now you can go ahead and flash the ROM.

Okay you need to reflash modem I'm in phone so can't link you up with hurricane modem tool but in my signature it says JellyKat FAQ click on that and in there you'll see hurricane modem changer tool link , go visit that thread , download version 5, and flash it recovery , aroma install will open and choose one of the newer modems and see if that fixes your no sim card detected issue *fingers crossed *

None of the modems worked. I've deleted the /system and /data and all the steps you gave me and restored back to 4.1.2 with twrp and the darnedest thing happened. no reboot loop, only thing is that there still is no service. The GCI screen shows up when booting (my cell phone service) . i was pretty sure the efs was checked when i backed it up a few days ago. I think i dun goofed on this one.
EDIT: Looking at the 4.1.2 backed up rom on my computer, there is a efs.ext4.win.md5 and a efs.ext4.win file on there.

So i finally got a premium link download on rapidgator and am downloading this stock rom atm. so its resumable (hooray!).
When done, i use the "PHONE" option in odin right? Im guessing installing the stock rom also re installs the stock recovery? Crossing my fingers (and toes lol) hoping this download finishes. If her phone doesnt work after all this i talked her into letting me buy it. It seems like a really nice phone. If she lets me buy it im thinking to get the Moga controller afterwards and installing some emulators and games, it'll be a nice little portable system.
SOLVED
Finally got the stock 4.3 download and installed and now the phone is working. Thanks everyone who contributed to help.

I'm to to sure on the format option. I know on another phone it screws things up badly.
The best I can say is use odin 3.07 and flash the tar update. .
It will remove root but your be able to use the app to get it back.
Ill try that, thanks

Your file system may have gotten corrupted. I had a weird situation once that I just couldn't resolve, no matter how many times I ODIN'd stock ROM/firmware. The answer for me was to rebuild the EFS file system, as outlined in this thread, the second half of the OP.

Well, this might a time for T-Mo store visit. ODIN to stock, take it in, and see if they have any kind of wipe/reset procedure. If EFS reset didn't work, I'm all out of advice. )) Sorry.

[Q] Multiple Shortcuts after nandriod restore

Hi, I recently did a nandriod restore to go back to stock to get the 4.4.3 update, however, not only am I not getting the update despite being CID_001 I have god duplicated shortcuts in my dropdown shortcut box and my phone no longer recognises my sim card number, for my contact card, the phone works fine in all other ways.
is there anything I can do to fix this.
is it possible with a custom recovery to wipe the phone blank and then reinstall the nandriod back up rather than trying to restore over the old one?
Before you restore anything you always have to do the factors reset through custom recovery!!! And yes it is possible you can see it directly if you boot into the recovery...ALWAYS if you restore do the factory reset/ wipe cache, data, system and dalvik cache!

using philz touch, can see factory restore, done, wipe cache, done,
I can see another option which is delete content for new rom install, I dont need to do this if I am restoring a back up as this isnt a rom correct?
thanks for the prompt reply
That's enough

You can also install a full stock Rom to get the ota as long as you install back the needed stock recovery

im just researching that at the minute, never done it before so a bit nervous... but I have two zip files one seems to contain the full odexed rom the other appears to be a firmware update same software number on the files but they arent the ones I have installed so I am worried i have the wrong ones
If you have the 2.22.401.3/4 firmware you can flash it and as long as you have the stock Rom 2.22.401.4 it will all work
---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------
Firmware will be flashed if you boot into fastboot and while phone is connected to pc open a command window in the location where the fastboot files are and type in fastboot oem rebootRUU
You also need to put the firmware.zip in that location but be sure some firmware.zip also wipes the internal storage, so please just look into the zip and please let me know which files are inside so I can say if it wipes the internal storage...it will also do it only if your phone is still s-on

i think my firmware is 1.54.401.10
I have the rom for 2.22.401.4 as zip
but I am not confident that how to flash that rom over my existing rom...
I think I can fastboot (fastboot boot Trecovery.img) into pilz touch, clear the phone for rom install and then install the zip using the custom recovery....???
the recovery for 2.22.401.4 is already flashed

You flash the Rom like all others, just do the factory reset there, flash the stock Rom and yea it should be fine, but it's better if you flash the 1.54.401.10 stock Rom, otherwise updates won't work if you use a Rom which needs a newer firmware are flashed on a device with older firmware...therefore either take the older stock Rom or take the stock 2.22.401.3/4 firmware.zip and flash it too but then you don't need to use stock recovery as you are then on latest base and you can flash then mods too as it will be annoying to always use the command to boot the recovery always if you want to flash anything
when I do "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
I see a grey HTC logo
I then do "fastboot flash firmware.zip" I get an error unknown partition firmware.zip
should this be "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip"?
So I have succesfully installed the new rom , and flashed the fitting firmware, but the problem is still there, when I pull down the notification bar and switch to quick settings, then edit settings i am still seing multiple duplicates of the shortcuts, and in setting about where it pulls my phone number from the sim card it still reports my number to be 000000000000 this is all very strange in deed
did a full system scrub twice and a new rom install and a factory reset...
guess I will have to live with it

everything technically works, phone emails sms the lot, one you set the 12 choices in quick menu you dont worry about the duplicates as you dont see them ever again unless you go to edit it.
its just I am a bit anally retentive about every thing being as it should be and not working despite the hicups
It would be really better to post screenshots of it xD
Please see attached:
first three are the quick menu options
the last is my phone number store option which effects things like contact card, and adding my number directly into apps like facebook and whatsapp
Anyone knows the solution to this multiple same things in quick settings?

after a lot of messing around, and resetting, I think I know the cause.
I will test for definite in about 8 hours when I get home, I believe its when you use htc back up and restore to restore setting after a factory reset.
I will be looking at putting developer ROM back on when I get home as today it rebooted and deleted system apps associated with rooting such as flash light
I find this odd considering I did not root this rom

[Q] Urgent- Does anyone knows the method to wipe Note 2 (N7100) completely

Does anyone knows a method to wipe Note 2 (N7100) completely and reinstall the stock firmware?
I am having issues with calls. The person who called cannot hear me nor can I hear them. I tried with stock roms, custom roms, different modems but no go.
The issue remains intermittent.
I have used nand erase all in odin and even used pit but old partitions always stay there, for eg- modem, kernel always stays there no matter even if I wipe them from Philz recovery.
So I request you to point me towards the right method or tool to completely wipe my Note 2 and reinstall stock firmware or custom (doesn't matter).
P.S. I am ready to do anything (not hardware) to my Note 2 to wipe it completely.

Answer:
root phone....
Install custom recovery...(PhilZ) or if U R allready on TWRP itll do fine...
Do full wipe( factory and data reset-wipe all to install new rom-yes)
Clean cache
Clean dalvick cache in advanced
Restart recovery....
Phone is clean
Or...
Download ODIN and STOCK Firmware... and ...
U r done! Hope helped...
And there is Rom nuke app. Zip... Find it, i do not have link for now. But, that what has been written will help U.
And... if U have anything important to save-save it before all!!! Titanium or any ellse backup app will do, or/and back it up from recovery also! Twice is always better! And, if U do not wanna install new rom and that new rom isnt on Ext Sd- reamove it, just in case before deleting all(wiping) but after backup(i just asume that ull store backup on Ext Sd card)

There is solution for that. Do remap partition with Odin. U can find stock partition formats on XDA somewere or just Google it, i will do latter when i have some time free. But do not give hope, there is always a solution, just take a brake and relax ... and See U latter or tonight in "helping adventure"
p.s TRY TO NOT Nand erase all.... Just re-map partition with downloaded one and instal stock firmware.... 4 begining.
Did remapping the partition with the pit file.
Did remapping with pit n nand erase all no go...
Have you actually tried recovery firmware through kies?
I believe you should give it a chance if you haven't already, I know that it's not supposed to downgrade but it's called "recovery software" ... ???
