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
Kaito23
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.

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.

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.

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..

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 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.

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..

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.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 4
DMC3 also older rom for countries mentioned above.
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.

Guys here is my problem. I tried to upgrade my Samsung N7105 to 4.3 via OTA and it got stucked on bootloop.
I tried to access recovery mode but it fails, only download mode.
What i did is I downloaded the official 4.3 firmware at SamMobile and flashed it with Odin 3.09
Based on Odin it is successful but im still stuck on bootloop and recovery mode cannot still be accessed.
Tried to root it also and installed CWM to recover. I was able to to access CWM
so i restored factory setting, wipe cache and dalvik cache but still the phone bootloops.
Any suggestions on how to resolve my problem?

Was able to access custom recovery upon flashing. conducted wipe data / factory reset and wipe dalvik cache but still bootlooping was experienced. Is my phone dead already and needs replacement?
After flashing the philz, try flashing a custom ROM and see if u will unstuck from the bootloop, try cm 10.2, it's very light and mostly bug free

Now working cm10.2 but now my next problem is there is no signal. it appeared that imei value is null. how do i repair this? thanks!
By the way after successfully running on cm10.2 I tried to reflash again with stock firmware. bootloop again. i think i will be stuckon using custom roms for now. The only thing I need to address is the no mobile signal problem.
OK so the bootloop problem is done and don't worry there are a lot of amazing custom roms that are based on the stock one and even better features like the note 3 features, as for the imei, please tell me you did an nfs backup if you do, there are a lot of ways you can restore your nfs backup, if you don't have an nfs backup, I don't know what to do.

Not very clued up on losing baseband but it happened to me once when I used a different revovery version to restore a back up. Dr Ketan has written a guide on restoring baseband, he will be able to fix it

Sorry was on vacation for a long time. I wasn't able to update this thread.
Problem right now is I forgot to back the EFS so when I flashed CM 10.2
There is no baseband and IMEI is null. Tried to flash n7105 modem but still it still doesn't work
Have read that I should flash stock firmware to fix baseband and IMEI but 4.3 firmwares makes my phone go on bootloop.
Should I wait for 4.4 update? I want my phone to make it usable again.
My phone right now is useless and works like an itouch hahaha
Any suggestions???
Need expert advise

You may try Hurricane modem changer and experiment with various modem versions. It's a longshot but it may help. Try finding very old modem version and flash that.
Hurricane Modem Changer is that an application?
Where to get it? Also, will it there be a possibility that when I flash Official 4.4 kitkat (when released) on my n7105.
Bandwidth and IMEI will be restored? I'm leaning towards to come back to touch wiz though many of you guys might say that a custom rom might be better.
For one thing, the problem in my n7105 started when i upgraded to 4.3 via OTA

Thanks will try. Aside from this. Where can I find old modem?
Will hurricane modem changer work if I used ditto note 3 rom?

Hurricane contains some older modems along with new ones and yes it will work if you used DN3.

No, it's for N7100 only - the modems are completely different (3G vs LTE).
Please read the original post carefully before flashing, if the HC was not protected you could have lost network functions completely.

Im using an n7105 model. Guess this will not work. Any other suggestions?
From what I understand, the quickest solution is to flash stock firmwares however, i'm quite disappointed that
almost all 4.3 firmwares from sam mobile doesn't work in my phone (always bootlooping)
A technician told me that I should wait for the 4.4 kitkat release, since it might work for my phone.
Now my problem is, I need to have the phone operational. so im willing to flash custom roms for the meantime
but the baseband problem is really testing my patience. hehe

It's pretty strange really as stock firmwares are a complete set of bootloader/modem/system that should in theory work perfectly well together without any incompatibility problems. Have you ever tried to install one of them without sdcard and/or simcard installed, maybe you have some leftovers from previous system (Android secure directory) that causes bootloops, also did you completely clean internal sdcard prior to flashing, it may create the same problems as external sdcard.

im not sure if i cleaned the internal sdcard prior to flashing.
It started with the OTA update that failed then I tried to flash stock firmware via odin
do i have to do a pre-requisite before flashing it again? so you are suggesting to remove the simcard and external sd card prior to flashing?
I lost my imei number a lil. Time ago and I don't know what could be the cause of this
I tried two different things that day i.e.
I flashed a wifi direct file for kitkat 4.4 based rom and then I partitioned my sd card and after sometime I lost my imei no.
So any one can tell me what could be the reason
Reason u already told main.thing is recovery ... do u have a efs backup???

If you have backed up your efs.img you can restore it.otherwise you have to flash stock ROM

Mate I am not finding any mistakes but look at the reason of corrupting efs ..."flashing official rom via odin"
Solution - flash stock rom via odin .
Is it really possible
Not asking how to solve this problem coz i have already solved it but i want a reason, why i got this problem
