Hi guys I am still struggling with this lingering problem of dead wifi on my GT N7100
Before you jump into giving me suggestions, let me summarize what I have done thus far.
My daily driver was @wesamothman hybrid 4.3 custom ROM and everything was almost prefect for weeks then I upgraded to @dr.ketan full 4.3 ROM and then WiFi went dead. Though this was normal. Starting reading how to fix the dead WiFi. I have tried all of the popular 4.3 ROMs, tried all the wifi fixes by @dr.ketan and alternatives from XDA gurus and even tried Devil's kernel to activate my dead WiFi. I was on the MJ5 bootloader, I think Nothing seem to work. I have decided to settle with Omega ROM from V20 and now 21. Everything else on the ROM is running perfect and I have had no single FC on my Note 2 excpet I cannot activate my WiFi
Taking a suggestion by @cooza, I decided to do a clean official upgrade with a stock official 4.3 ROM from Sammy hoping the new bootloader with the ROM may trigger the WiFi. This is what I did;
I did a full wipe and format data to clean the internal storage.
Downloaded the official 4.3 firmware from sammobile for my country
Upgrade PC Odin and USB drivers on my windows PC
Flashed the official firmware, root the phone using Dr. Ketan's multitool and flashed TWRP latest.
My phone stats now;
Baseband MK1
ROM ML4
Bootloader ML3
Still WiFi is dead and when I tried to flash the fixes (Dr. Ketan's 'reboot and wifi fix' with PA, the phone say unsupported version. I am now back to Omega V21 which is really a great 4.3 ROM =)
[Edited] I have also reflash the official firmware N7100ML3_XME and did several factory resets from settings and recovery and the WiFi still refuse to turn on. How do I confirm that I am flashing the new bootloader when I flash using PC ODIN? When I check with Device Info app, it says that I my bootloader is ML3.
Does this mean my WiFi is permanently dead? What else can I do?
BIG thank you for all the suggestions and pointers from so many great people in XDA.
did you have wifi working after flashing the stock rom and booting back up before rooting with Dr Ketans tool ?
there were two wifi fix by Dr ketan - one was called reboot fix and actually contained the mj 5 bootloader - the name started with BL, there was one wifi fix which came before this - it was called wifi fix for mj2 . rar.The latter was for those who were on 412 bootloader but wanted the wifi working without upgrading their bootloader. It is not supposed to be run over 4.3 bootloaders.

Actually I lost wifi when I was running a hybrid 4.3 ROM [Hurricane ROM4.3][MI6-MJ2-MJ5-MK4][20-11-13]v6.0[Fast+Stable+Long Battery+NOTEI I I] and it was my daily driver for weeks without any problem. Then I upgraded to Dr. Ketan's 4.3 MK4 ROM when I lost the wifi. Since, I have trying to fix this problem withour much success.
eidros, you said in the other thread you were going to try flashing the stock ml 4 rom, what happened ?
(time for me to log out , hope someone else will give some advise)

Yeah just finished download the stock ml4 but am waitng input regarding which official firmware actually carries bootloaders? He suspects that it may be possible that my phone may not have a bootloader or the appropriate bootloader, does this make sense?
Flash 4.3 bootloader from N7100 Android Development and WiFi will work for 100%, lol

your phone has a bootloader and you checked with info app , as you said in other thread, that it is ml3
no harm in flashing ml4 as you are not concerned with warranty, check your bootloader version after flashing ml4, do factory reset in stock recovery, do a couple of reboots afterwards, yank the battery out , push it back in, power on, hope it will work

I am in the same boat as OP, WiFi is not turning on whatsoever. Tried different ROM
s wiped completely before installing, etc. ... nothing. Not even with Stock ROM WiFi works.
I tried the last suggestion here with the bootloader, but it says failed in Odin and afterwards the phone gives me the failed firmware upgrade screen and Kies won't recognize the phone. (GT-N7100).
I can however restore with Odin and a complete Stock Rom, but still no WiFi. What to do??

hey mate, flashed the stock ml4 rom and the info app confirmed that the bootloader is ml4 but alter doing all the things you suggested and even more the WiFi is still refusing to come on. Do you think the wifi on the N2 is dead? I mean literally kaput? Can that happen when all the other radios are working?

Hi guys!
I hope that I chose the right forum to ask my question: I installed this rom onto my Note 2 LTE N7105, but now I don't have wifi (as the text in the rom description says). Before I flashed the rom, I had installed Devils Rom (deodexed and deknoxed 4.3 stock) with the devils kernel (based on MK5). I thought that the bootloader will be kept, because I already installed a wifi hotfix for that bootloader.
Now I have the new 4.4 rom installed, it works fine - except for wifi. If I got this right (if not, correct me) - flashing the MJ5 bootloader will solve the problem and I won't have KNOX triggered (now I have a "MA5" bootloader). So I tried to flash the MJ5 bootloader with ODIN 3.09 but it keeps failing. The drivers are installed, I can access the download menu. My pc recognizes the phone as COM5, but when I load the bootloader and click on flash, almost instantly a red FAIL appears in the first block. The output says "writing NAND..." and then "FAILED".
Now I am a bit confused - does the MJ5 bootloader work with the Note 2 LTE or only the non- LTE version? Are there any other ways to get wifi to work? If there's now way around, I am willing to trigger my knox.
Thanks in advance, I hope you can help a very confused user
Im having the same problems. odin is giving no love on updating the bootloader

Did you try to flash the kernel as stated in the installation instructions of the rom that your trying to install?
I have the agni kernel as it is the only way to get the wifi to work without the bootloader, which im trying to get too. For the life of me i cannot figure out why odin doesnt want to flash the bootloader. mj5 or nd3 makes no difference. according to info app my boot loader version is N7105ZHALJ4. Do I need to step up 'slower'?
I want to go to any of those recent bootloaders so wifi will work normally. It seems slow on the agni kernel but at least it works.

AFAIK you can't install Agni Kernel using Odin. Instead use your Custom Recovery to install that kernel, under "Install Zip from Storage" option of your custom recovery. HTH.

Agni kernel is only flashable via recovery not with odin.. Its a zip file.. U can flash it using CWM or Philz Or twrp recoveries
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
U r right hazin ... That file can be flashed only via recovery... But I m not able to flash it.. It goes into aroma installer, does its work and says done but does not show on settings... I e saved log file too of that process...
So no answer on this question yet?? I'm also trying to flash the MJ5 bootloader using Odin, no luck though.
Can anyone explain why it keeps failing?
did you fix the problem ?

No, I never managed to fix it. I think I found out in the end that there never was an MJ5 bootloader for the GT-N7105 (the international LTE version). There was only an MJ5 bootloader for the non-LTE version, the GT-N7100. And of course, that phone's bootloader will never work on the N7105.
So we're out of luck it appears
so the phone is dead ?

All of the new KitKat ROMs have fixes built in for that. Some of the Lollipop ROMs also fix this, so you don't really need that bootloader.

I'm on NamelessROM 5.0.2 at the moment, works fine for me. I'd probably recommend that one, battery life is also great. It's in the N7105 development forum. :good:
I was also on CM11 official, worked like a charm. There are a number of 4.4.4 ROMs in the N7105 development forum that were quite mature and worked well.

Ok, then it's a completely different discussion... not sure why the bootloader would be failing in that case, since it was built for that device. You could try a different Odin? (Assuming of course that your are NOT trying to DOWNGRADE the bootloader... it's well known that you can't downgrade the bootloarder to MJ5 from something more recent).
Otherwise, I'm sure there are equally useful ROMs for the N7100 in the Note 2 Original Development forum.
But, since your device is probably pretty old and almost certainly out of warranty by now, I would seriously consider flashing the latest official Samsung ROM to get the latest bootloader and then flash whatever you want on top of that. Voiding the warranty is irrelevant if you're already out of warranty. But, I have heard that even with the latest bootloader some people still have trouble with wifi and BT. In that case all I can suggest is playing around with different ROMs until you find something that works for you. As I'm not a N7100 user I can't really offer more advice than that, sorry man.
Guys where I can find a REAL WORKING link to download mj5 or higher bootloader??
I tried a lot & most of them are obselete
Maybe downnload the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com and extract the bootloader?
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-N7105/
I have Samsung Galaxy Note 2 running Android 4.3 stock. It have'nt been rooted or modified in anyway. Just like a fresh out of shop Note 2,
only it is over a year old, so the warranty is over. I'm very interested with the DN3 v5 ROM. Is there any specific guide (preferably step-by-step guide) on how to get from here (fresh phone) to the finished phone (completed with working DN3 ROM).
I understand that it needed to be rooted, have specific bootloader and the latest recovery mode. (detailed guide to install them would be very helpfull). I've done flashing custom ROM on my Sony Xperia Miro long ago, but on this Samsung it seems much more harder.
So, I just need a non-confusing guide to do it, as I don't have much experience in this thing.
I've found many guide on this, but most of them not exactly the same as my specs. Just worried that the worst would happen.
And lastly, I have Knox in my phone but I never installed it. Is it gonna make any different or what?
If there is any existing guide on it, I would appreciate the link. Thanks in advanced.

My ISSUE (after flashing ROM etc.) Reboots Fine into ROM.
however, if I turn off the device..I have to Reboot into recovery and flash again...
WHY are ROMs not "Sticking" and Rebooting if device is shut down or Dies (Battery)?
???ANY HELP ?? I sure its simple but I'm discombobulated on this issue.

And what on earth has that got to do with the OP's thread?
Stop hijacking peoples topics.
Well, I manage to root using dr.ketan multitool. But then problem arise when i tried to install mj5 bootloader. In Odin it says fail and in my phone it says unsupported version. Now my phone stucked with this message, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."...What do I do? Help please...
Edit :
I tried to flashed Philz recovery and it went back to life! Now, I need a way to install bootloader for DN3 v5, any version would be fine I guess. Help please...
Edit :
Finally finished flashing DN3. Just flash twrp using mobileodin and use current bootloader then flash DN3.
Gentlemen, I introduce myself, my name is John and I come from HTC Mania, I speak Spanish and I hope excuse my grammatical errors.
I hope you can help me is small big problem that I have with my Galaxy note II. First I must confess that until yesterday had one with version 4.1.2, 5.15 and acces Philpz Custom Root.
* I was anxious to install a Custom ROM on my phone, because I must confess bringing something boring, and they recommended asking the Phantom ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2737570 and i chose the latest version.
I made a backup of my files, unfortunately Synchronize my messages, whatsapp among others for not having lost all conversations and let the 3 files in SD Storage. I also made a backup of an EFS file?, Nose if it really is well done, but I have a file on my PC Image EFS weighing about 20 megabytes.
Well, the thing esque watching the video of the Phantom ROM installation, the comments left that could be installed by Philpz but assure me that it was the latest version, then downloaded the 6.48.4 and un updating. These were my steps:
1 - I downloaded the three files such as video and got into SD Storage.
2 - I turned off the computer, I got into recovery mode and did the following Wipes: Wipe Data / Factory reset - Wipe cache partition - Format system - format data - Format preload (the latter not remember doing it)
3 - I installed and followed the same steps as the video in the aroma, but I did not reboot before install SuperSU, ie, installed Part 1, Part 2, Super SU and then Reboot.
4 - I rebooted the phone and the process was over.
Al and peel off the Samsung logo, and start the setup, the team was stuck like 3 times, having to restart the phone. His signal was turned mobile network but I do not plan, I could call, but the Wi-fi could not ignite at any time. This will not start., Therefore I have no way to install Whatsapp and other applications, gmail etc. and taking into account the time that the phone stay stuck flashing process could be wrong and could have other mistakes I know.
Asking elsewhere with few answers, and also reading the same thread Phantom ROM, few mentioned some "MD5 chek?" (I did not understand how it was done), and I had not installed Bootloader MJ5, by the fact that gone from 4.1.2 to 4.3 +.
I do not know what to do right now, I could help? What should I do, should I download, what to do first and last, I have to download the video tutorial TWRP? what version is it?, did Wipe any other, can please guide me step by step from the point at which I am. something like "Download these files first sluts, put on sd and install this, and this one, flash it by Odin, and then makes these wipes ROM upgrade." Now I guess I must have several things that can be bad.
I hope not to bother, thank you very much for your attention and patience.
I reiterate my apologies for my language, but I'm using google translator.
I don't know if i have installed an bootloader.

Thanks a lot, if I wanted to make sure my ROM did not have any problem with the installation, you may re-install it again? That is, now I install the Bootloader MJ5, and then do the same steps of the video? Or have any other way to do ... or is it better to do nothing and just install the mj5?

Thanks for the support, but i have another question.
My phone sometimes stay freezed and i must reboot it, and i think it is a problem, or when i want to choose a wallpaper it says " Config. has stopped ", Play music has stopped, and Super SU when i open it says, " Binaris of supersu are not installed, and supersu can't be installed, this is a problem! " .... and with it i think that the process of installation no was god and many other problems will attack. What you recomend to do ?, Flash again ? what wipes y must do, TWRP must be installed and the version of pihlpz that i have doesn't work well? Thanks. ( And if i must flash again.... with the bootloader installed, my wi-fi will work ? )
Well I would suggest a clean flash with all necesary wipes

You should just flash in your custom recovery latest UPDATE-SuperSU.zip (v.2.xx) from Chainfire's thread or website.
tetakpatalked from Nexus 7 flo
Hey guys!
So, I installed Dr. Ketan's Custom ROM V8 on my brother's Note II (N7100) sometime back. It was earlier on roooted stock 4.1.2, so naturally, it had no WiFi on V8. Since it wasn't required at that point, I did not care about fixing it, but now WiFi as well as Hotspot were needed. So I flashed the KitKat Bootloader using Odin as per the instructions on the ROM thread, and it rebooted and was stuck on the Samsung bootlogo. It went into download mode but no recovery was there. I tried flashing stock recovery as per the instructions on the thread but it was persistently stuck on the bootlogo. I've also tried flashing the MJ5 Bootloader and WiFi fix from here, but it failed on Odin. Then I flashed TWRP, and CWM too but all in vain So, basically it is bricked(?)
I do not have recovery access to reflash the ROM. It was working perfectly before that (sans the WiFi) but I don't know what went wrong. How do you guys think can I get it back to working normally?
I know this type of questions have already been asked on this forum and I have read all those threads. But no method seems to work.
So I'd request for your help. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.
Bump!
Guys, I need a solution quickly because there is no alternate phone for him to use. Please help me out here.
Maybe nobody is replying because we're out of ideas. Did you tried to restore firmware with KIES. There was an option there if I recall correctly.

Your best bet is flashing official stock ROM 4.4.2 ( I think FNE1 ) is latest for India via Odin and hopefully it resolves the issue

Thanks! Does that method work even when the phone is dead?

Thanks! Surely will try that. I was hoping for a solution that did not involves wipe of data but getting the phone back working is more important than the data.
Dear all,
Well I dont know where to start. But here is what happened with my N7100 Note 2.
I was on the latest 4.4.2, the phone restarted suddenly one day and it just dont boot stuck at samsung logo,
flashed the 4.4.2 stock from sammobile. and it worked fine everything was perfect for a week, till it happened again
flashed the same rom. and here is where the trouble begins.
The IMEI changed to generic 00499XXX.., Serial No: 000000
i managed to downgrade to 4.1.2 with mobile odin, flashed a lot of stocks and customs as well. And after a very hard work for a week i manage to get back my IMEI and serial number back, now I backed up my EFS learned my lesson
Now i flashed the stock rom 4.1.1, phone is unlocked. cant make calls, or sms or data internet.
Now I have service: out of service, Bluetooth address: unavailable (while its in the efs folder the mac is in the file), Device status modified, And when I connect it to USB it wont recognize the phone until I have to dial *#7284# and change USB from modem to PDA, then save and reset. (EVERYTIME) I need a permanent fix as well for that.
Please I need help with those as i cant make my phone work.
Thanks and regards,
Mohamed Selim.
First and most important:
If you ever were on stock 4.4.x you can't downgrade to 4.1.x because of knoxed bootloader.
What you did with mobile odin was no real downgrade cause your bootloader wasn't touched.
Don't try to flash firmware beyond your current bootloader version.
Install Samsung Phone Info app from play store and look for actual bootloader version.

As I said before: YOU DID NOT DOWNGRADE firmware to 4.1.2 with Mobile Odin, check with Info app from Samsung:
You will find bootloader between *ND3 and *NI1 and all are 4.4.2 KitKat
So, whatever firmware you try to flash under 4.4.2 is supposed to fail.

Mobile Odin does everything but doesn't flash bootloader so it is like flashing a custom rom which also doesn't contain bootloader.
PC Odin flashes complete firmware, so this is the only way to really up- or downgrade. Hope you understand the difference.
The only solution I see for you is to concentrate on 4.4.2 equal or up your actual bootloader version.

I really want to help you out and I assure you that I know what I am talking about (take a look into my signature with stock roms and bootloaders).
There is indeed no solution on 4.1.1 and the screenshot doesn't show bootloader version. To believe what I say try to find out what BL version you are on. If it shows XXUFND3 up to XXUFNI1 you have the proof.

XXUFND3 was the first KitKat firmware for N7100 and yours was the second.
Three options:
1) Flash firmware using PC Odin at least ND4, maybe better NE1 or up
2) Flash through recovery any stock KitKat custom rom provided by wesamothman, cosmyndemeter or me
3) Flash through recovery any KitKat custom rom you like from development section here
4.3 custom roms may work also, but not 100% sure.
Beyond 4.3 I wouldn't recommend.

Best and fastest one is XXUFNI1, NH2 and NG3 aren't bad either.
Do a clean installation (factory reset) and after setup device go back into recovery to flash SuperSu.zip.:highfive:

No need to flash BL cause you already have KitKat BL

Ok, last one is driver related to your PC (Mac or Windows?), are you running Kies?
For BT I found this APP
For the first issue I think about IMEI lost, pls check
