hi there, i have a big problem, my n7105T from telstra australia is not working. it happned after i flashed it into a different firmware, and the pc suddenly shutdown. the imei is now showing null and baseband unknown, ive tried each and every steps i found here but nothing seems to work. cant even generate a dummy imei. (was not able to back it up)
steps tried;
reflashing it back to stock rom
tried the 9 steps process
also 3 technicians tried to fix it using different boxes, octopus, spt, nspro and dont know what other boxes they have tried. my phone stayed even for 2 weeks to one of the techs since he was really challenged on fixing my phone. but still no avail.
my efs is all empty regardless what rom your going to flash it to.
pls help, willing to pay if needed.
thanks

hi guys, i flashed the lte modem on my phone and it seems that its wiped out my efs folders, ive been trying to restore my efs folder with nvtools and qpst, neither seems to work since somehow dm mode is not responding to them
any solns? ty in advance for any help
a couple of things:
ive already odin'd back to stock, no luck on restoring efs(perhaps im doing something wrong?) i dialed *#7284# and put it into the RNDIS+DM+MODEM mode, nvtools says phone failed to answer while QPST says that comm7(the samsung serial port) is not a phone
its pretty had to do this since the phone is rebooting itself every other minute

Been there, sucks. For me to get out of the constant restarts I had to flash the lte modem again. Flash stock (odin) flashed cwm (odin), put the modem on my external sd card and flashed that.At least that way I could work on it a little. And below is basically what I did to finally get it to work. Hard to say all my steps as I was trying everything.
Well I dont really know how I got mine back to life, tried all the standard stuff from the threads,got my imei back but had no network,network type,service nothing helped. last resort I said whatever ill try anything now. Came across this
http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-n...3g4g-aws-bands-on-att-galaxy-note-2-sgh-i317/
whatever it did it restored everything (cold see carrier,network,etc)but corrupted imei, next i followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117
If you need this is a complete no imei nv backup I used before flashing my imei with the generator
http://db.tt/4hunZ7qy
used the imei generator, then the writer (link on post does not work for the imei generator,so found it here
http://d-h.st/vVV
Wrote my imei back and presto, back in action. Fully functional again, including 4G
Like I said this was a last resort, but worked

got it fixed on friday, was so tired that i went to sleep
basically i followed someone's post on the forum(forgot name) and flashed the tmo modem, since the mct one always gave me the bootloop, then i enabled DM mode and finally got nv tools/qpst to recognize my phone, it appears that the issue was that the drivers does not recognize the new modems..
anyway, once i was done restoring nv, i flashed the tmo lte modem and paranoid android
now i have my imei back and i can use lte
although my bluetooth address still says unknown..not sure if normal
My bluetooth also says unavailable, I would think if you are not hooked up to bluetooth then it should say unavailable. Im to scared to flash the tmo lte modem again...
HI all,
First post, go easy on me!
I've searched the forums trying to find the answer to this problem but have been unsuccessful. I successfully flashed my Galaxy W with slimbean 3.1.0 and had been using it successfully for over a month. I put it in airport mode to save battery, as I had done many times before, but this time when I turned it off the service never came back. I haven't had service since.
I have tested the SIM in another phone and it is working fine. I have also tried flashing a different ROM (CM10 Alpha 1) with no luck. I would reflash the phone with the stock firmware if there is any chance that would help, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that via CWM. At this point I'm not exactly sure what to do. Is it possible that the this is a hardware issue?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Yes it´s possible it´s a hardware issue you got after a while.
First thing I would try is to flash back to stock ROM and see if this fixes your issue. (With Odin)
There is a guide about how to do that, but am sorry not to point you to it right now. Its 4am here righ now and I already am having difficulties to write correctly. (need to go to bed soon )
If this helps I would suggest to update the baseband and then to try again with CyanogenMod.
But if reflashing the stock ROM doesn´t help either, I would suggest to contact the Samsung Service Center.
By flashing back to the stock ROM make sure you are flashing the one used in your specific country, because in the first place it also inculdes the baseband used in your country and in the secound place it also inculdes the country code Samsung might look at while testing your phone.
In Germany for example most SGW´s were sold with it´s specific coutry code. But there were also a few sold with the county code for the whole EU.
So you must care about such things when flashing back to stock ROM. For fixing it the country code is not important. Only the baseband used in your region is important. But I case you need to contact the Samsung Service Center it will be important.
Hope this helps a bit. Now I really need to go to sleep.
Does your IMEI number still ok? Cause I lost my Efs folder with IMEI number some time ago, in another Galaxy fone i had.
you can check it in Settings / About fone / Status / IMEI
If you lost it, you will have no service, no matter what rom you try.
In this case, you can try to repair using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1308546 , not simple but saved my fone.
Hi there
I am in New Zealand, recently rooted with DR Ketan’s help and installed PhilzCWM. Also on Ketan’s advice, I backed up my EFS.
My problem: just today I realised I cannot send text, or make phone call. I am on X-Note ROM from 3-4 days ago. I am very sure that after installation, I had normal Mobile connectivity and was surprised to find I didn't. Not sure if my EFS became corrupted, or other ROM setting is wrong.
Under Settings About Device:
My SERVICE STATE says Out of Service
My Mobile NETWORK STATE says disconnected.
My phone number says UNKNOWN
What's weird is
My IMEI lists a long number, assumed correct and not corrupted
So if my EFS partition is corrupted I assume I wouldn't see any IMEI at all?
Far as I know my SIM is activated (I am on a company plan & coworker's phones are normal)
Just now I restored my stock nandroid and .... same thing! No service. So I doubt it's even a modem problem.
Guys I'm screwed, any tips what settings to check etc??
sounds like your IMEI is invalid. i had something random recently. all my flatmates use iphone 4s. they had no signal when @ home. cant send texts etc. wifi works.
then next day my LTE N2 did the same thing. I changed MODEM/BASEBAND problem corrected it self. went back to old MODEM/Baseband. no problems since.
only other thing i can think of is, someone has reported your IMEI to police or your provider..
does it say "NOT REGISTERED" ? or something similar where your provider name appears?

Hey thanks for th tip.
My phone recognises Vodafone as my provider but still won't connect.
I will try flashing a different modem, I may not have paid enough attention to different versions when I flashed the aroma installer.
Thanks, I'll report back.
update: Vodafone shop confirms my SIM is 100% good, and it works in another phone. So I think you're right, my IMEI is fukt.
I was told by Voda that my proper IMEi is listed on my phone innards. The IMEI shown in phone settings is waaay different. So it's corrupted somehow. I gotta familiarise myself with how to flash my backup image. Damn just what I need on beer day Friday
I restored my backup image of EFS/IMEI - it solved my problem.
Because there was an IMEI listed in phone settings I wrongly assumed it was the correct one. So flashing ROMS can muck up your EFS.....thank god for backups
you can still use the custom roms. just if your IMEI stuffs up, there is methods to reset it. i had to do it once. wasn't that difficult but was rather troublesome. i just wanted to use the custom rom at the time.
A few weeks ago I went to China and I brought my Wind Mobile issued T889V. While there I realized that the phone was sim locked so I took it to a place to have it unlocked. Before I got the phone back I was able to use another phone, so I did not realize the problem until I returned to Canada. I do not even know what it was they did over there.
The problem is that I just cannot receive a signal from Wind. I know the screenshot shows full bars, but the phone has remained "no service" for the past several days. So far I've tried hard reset, flashing the rom, flashing the modem (with several different files), all with no luck. Yesterday I took it a phone repair place and the guy told me that it was something wrong with the NV settings. He also told me that he has changed it to the correct settings, but I am still not getting anything. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Also, please explain like I am 5. Thank you.
Edit: I've tried the NE7 before the NH2 modem file, did not make a difference.
Background:
I lost MEID then I did full restore with L710VPALEN_L710SPRALEN to get my MEID but asking to insert sim card. After trying to get around it, I gave up and flashed L710VPUDNJ2 without knowing the risk.
Problem:
Since I flashed L710VPUDNJ2 I get 1x on my data. Internet is super slow.
I rooted the phone and flash other modems. Every time I flashed modems, I have no signal, MEID Unknown, Baseband Unknown.
I tried flashed older stock rom (Full restore) Just found out I might brick my phone already.
I went to recovery mode then I see dead robot right away.
Please also see the pictures below because I could not explained it in word.

Thank You in advance!!!
