problems after update to ROM 4.3 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey All,
I have problems with my GT-N7100 after updating to rom 4.3, it's a weird situation after trying all solutions available online (all solutions I found ).
I will tell you the full scenario and please try to help me with it.
I was on rom 4.1.2 , after flashing rom 4.3 from sammobile, I started getting not registered on network, I couldn't solve it at first and I was afraid to try solving it by myself. I sent to service center and he said he can't make it work on 4.3 and it must be downgraded to 4.1.1 and he did it and it was working. I guess he installed a German rom , baseband: N7100XXALIH.
I decided to try upgrading again to rom 4.3 but first I took a backup by rom manager and then I flashed the 4.3 rom and the network problem happened again, the IMEI is correct.
I tried several ways including ariza patch and flashing several modems but it didn't work, until I found the way to flash: Patched_N7100_MK4_KERNEL then flash: Patched_N7100_XXUEMJ5_Modem.
That fixed the network problem and it worked super fine but at the same time I had problem with the wifi , it can't be turned on.
I tried Dr.Ketan wifi patch, but it didn't fix it.
I restored the 4.1.1 backup which I had at first but I still have the not registered on network problem.
I wanna run 4.3 rom and solve the network problem as well as the wifi problem.
please help me to solve this problem.
PS: I bought this phone last year from HK and I flashed 4.1.2 rom for Egypt right after I bought it and it was working fine. now after I tried rom 4.3 for Egypt, UAE, and HK I'm still having problems.
There is a service office said he can solve it but it's gonna cost around 40 USD, I wanna save that money and know the solution by myself to be able to solve it if I face it later.
Sorry for the long thread. your quick help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

For IMEI do a EFS backup. For Wifi, flash mj5 bootloader.

n7100 error" not registered on a network"

Hey everybody, Hope u r all doing well..
Here is my problem
I installed leaked rom 4.3 through odin on my N7100 device and was working well
then it started to be slow so I flashed 4.1.2 rom via odin, and found that my imei has been changed to strange one with a message not registered on a network
I searched the forum and figured out that flashing xxdme4 modem will resolve the problem
So I flashed this modem through recovery and the IMEI turned back to the correct one, but still not registered on a network
Things I tried
flashed 4.1.1 stock rom, changed the imei
flashed xxdmb5 rom , changed the imei
installed Ariza Patch on 4.1.2 , it makes my imei 009444 and corrupted it with no network
flashed xxdme4 Modem, it makes my imei correct
also xxdmf1 modem, makes my imei correct
I returned back to 4.3 , the imei is correct and also not registered on a network, I cant make calls
I flashed the new modem of the leaked 4.3 xxuemj5 on 4.3 rom, Also not registered on network but imei is correct
I flashed criskello custom rom 4.1.2, The imei is correct but also not registered..
Here Is the Strange part, when I call the sim in my n7100 from another phone, It rings as it is working, but I have nothing on the screen. also when I turn off my n7100, and call it , it is said that it is turned off. also the signal bars increase and decrease according to the area am moving in.. So I assume that this is not a hardware problem
also I thought to go to warranty , so I flashed stock ddmc3 rom, but the imei changed and when I flash xxme4 modem it is back, and I reseted the flash counter. but the modem is not corresponding to the rom, so it will be refused at warranty, and I cant install higher roms, cuz this is the latest rom for the region Egypt, where I live.
The Sim card is working in other phones, Also I tried many simcards
So I have a working device with 4.1.2 Stock rom and Xxdme4 modem, my imei is correct, baseband and everything
Sorry for ur time reading this, But to make everything Clear..
thanks in advance
Hey there... I actually faced a similar problem with the galaxy s3...similar symptoms.. .sane strange behaviour. ...except that my imei was altered.... I couldn't do anything to rectify it...as I hadn't backed up es folder....If you have backed it up...It may work if you restore it.....I made my s3 by sending it to a repair center...not samsung....and they fixed it....hope this helps...sorry about your phone
thanks for your reply,, I don't have efs backup.
Also My imei is Correct, it it Not Altered.
I am sure it is a software problem and I really need a solution
hope someone will help me.
Is there anyway to completely delete everything, repartition the device and start all over ??
If your imei is correct then use ariza patch it will fix your problem
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Thanks for trying to help. But i think u didn't read what i have done above.. my imei is correct with modem xxme4 and when i install ariza. It alters my imei. So ariza generate fake one and doesnt work
Any help??
Not Registered On Network
I am facing the same issue... flashed the Leaked 4.3 jelly bean leaked version bu somehow Wi-fi was not working. So i tried switching back to old 4.1.2 jelly bean. And since tehn I'm facing this issue. And after looking for some solution i came accorss this section on XDA... and realized my IMEI no. has also changed as you mentioned above...
I have no solution to this issue... just guessing because I read somewhere 4.3 comes with region lock feature and once installed you cannot switch back to the previous verison of Android OS... Can this be the issue... ??
If thats the case then I am assuming re-flashing leaked 4.3 should fix it but you mentioed above even that didnt wokrk.
I havent tried anything yet to fix it... downloading the most recent official 4.1.2 jelly bean rom (N7100XXDMG1) available for my region and see how it goes... Though I'm not very positive about it as you have already tried this...
Is there any one who can help us out.. ??

Not Registered On Network - FIXED
Hi,
I re-flashed the Old Stock Jelly Bean, the one I already had on my system (N7100XXDLL4_N7100ODDDLL2_INU). Even after flashing it I was getting the same error as mentioned above and then came across another page on XDA which mentioned about this issue...
I tried installing the relevant modem for my phone rom and region which fixed it... may be the modem that you have flashed is not relavant for your region and rom. You can go through the link and see what I am talking about.... It kinda worked for me...
I flashed Modem DDDMG1 and it got fixed )

Hi, all
It happened to me on my Note 2, first Network not registered, then after flashing again with a different rom then "SIM Card not detected". Searched every where and in the end I find this which worked for me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDPsUxnRbTM.
I downloaded the driver from here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com. Also tried many drivers from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2044937, non of them worked for me.
Hope this helps.

I tried xdme4 modem , it restores imei on 4.1.2 but still not registered on network
I had been thru the same problem. I flashed a prerooted 4.1.2, rooted it again as it was giving some error, and then patched ariza. I have done this several times as I have been constantly trying to flash 4.3 which always resulted in emergency calls only, once I lost imei after patching ariza, so I flashed. DLK7 or DL7 modem forgot the actual name but you can search by my name to find that post. I have already posted about the working modem.

Sorry to hear that it didnt work for you.... Seems like you are not getting the correct modem file for your region & Rom, the only thing that I can think of right now is to check with your friend who owns Galaxy Note 2 and can extract the Modem file using the method mentioned in the link i shared earlier :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044937
And use this file to flash on your Note2. Also, confirm the status of Note 2 of your friend whether it is locked by some carrier/network provider or Factory unlocked, should be same as yours (Not really sure if that can cause any issue but just want to avoid any further issues that might crop up).
All The Best.
Thanks!
efs restoring query??
hello everyone, i ve a efs backup, backedup wen im running on 4.3 (xxuemj5). is it possible to go back to 4.1.2 (N7100XXDMB2) and restore tat backup (backed up on 4.3)? i had a prob (" not registered on a network") last time wen i went back to 4.1.2.
thanks in advance-
Some times we have to replace the SIM card.
When IMEI becomes invalid the service provider blocks the SIM card.
Try your SIM card in some other phone before replacing it.
dear bro.
i had the same problem with my n 7100 i hope this ll work with u
flash stok 4.3 rom n7100zsuemk3 u ll find it at samsung-updates.com hongkong rom
u ll still have not registerd network
flash this modem n7100ddemj9 for android 4.3 i think u ll have to root ur devaice and disable knocks
google this (GT-N7100_ModemMJ9) u ll find it
this worked for me but with this modem u ll get poor signal than other devices . its better than nothing any way .
Dr Ketans roms has an option to fix the network issue in aroma instaler of his rom, can you try with this.. Or other option, if you want to return to the 4.1.2 try flash the rom 4.1.2, install a custom kernel, apply ariza patch and them apply an efs restore.

@Larner had the same issue and i assisted him to recover
Return to stock rom
what I guided first unroot the device completely
Now go to stock recovery and perform a hard reset that should fix the problem if this does not happen nothing can be done.

Hi Tonylee,
i have flash MJ5 bootloader before but its failed
is Blpatch the same like MJ5?? how do i know which bootloader i have now??
is this a stock rom N7100XXDMG1_N7100ODDDMG1_INU_Prerooted.rar ??
i will try your advice and hope it will help me to make my phone work again....
Us an app called Phone Info https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo to.see what bootloader you have installed already. Post here what that is. The blpatch is the dmg1 bootloader, you cannot flash the dmg1 rom if mj5 is installed. Yes the dmg1 rom is totally stock. just pre rooted.
If it fails whilst trying to.flash the mj5 then.its likely you have a mk4 or.newer bootloader wbich means you cannot.flash dmg1.
in that case the only thing I coukd.suggest is to.flash the very latest rom specifically for.you carrier

Im willing to bet then that you have MK9 bootloader. This means you cannot flash any stock rom that has a bootloader MJ9 or older. Only MK4 and newer.

Right as id guessed your on mk9 bootloader. Ignore that now. Your knox warranty is 0x1 which is the tripped state.
You cant downgrade the bootloader lower than mk4. You cant flash a stock 412 rom If it is loaded with a bootloader Which I think Is the norm.
you have your imei so you can flash a stock 4.3 rom for your carrier or a custom recovery and custom rom such as ARHD

You could flash a spanish stock rom but id go with twrp recovery and arhd.
You cant downgrade your bootloader your stuck with what youve got now. Dont fret, im also stuck on mk9 since I flashed an mk9 rom for a developer to test something. If.you want to use 412 specifically there are custom 412 roms but you might as well.go.with 4.3 now

You cant downgrade you bootloader. You cant.flash these roms because they contain a bootloader that is older than mk4 which means it will fail.
the only.option you have for.flashing stock.is.to.flash a 4.3 one.
if you want older android on your phone you will have to go.down the custom.route
the only stock.roms that will flash ok are 4.3 roms or roms that dont contain a bootloader update (most of.them.do.do)

[Q] Not Registered on Network Problem after manually upgrading to KiKat 4.4.2

I upgraded my Note 2 from 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 (Official French Rom downloaded from sammobile) yesterday and facing Not Registered on Network Error when I try to make call. My phone is already modified before I buy. This originally came from UAE and modified in Pakistan. I faced same problem when I upgrade to 4.3 which I could not resolve myself after trying so hard. I got it fixed by moving back to 4.1.2 with help of a technician (spent money).
Now again, I tried this latest firmware out of my curiosity. But same problem again? Please help me what to do?

[Q] Not registering on Network / Wrong IMEI after flashing stock 4.3

Hi, I have just flashed Rooted Note 2 on 4.3 to the latest stock ROM which I downloaded from the SamMobile and now it will not register on the network.
The new version I flashed was the same as the old as i found it with the CSC N7100BTUEMK2 on sam mobile.
I checked the IMEI and it says 00499010640000 in status menu which is different from the one under the battery.
I did not perform a backup of anything as I was not worried about losing any data.
Any ideas what has happened to it and how to get the IMEI correct again?
I understand this is something to do with an efs file but in what way it has become faulty from flashing the same rom I cannot decipher
Any help much appreciated! :good:

From my experience:
1) Reflash the ROM.
2) Flash a custom ROM.
Both worked for me.
N7105 rocking AOSB with AGNi kernel,
Click "Thanks" if I was of any help!
Thanks, I have reflashed the current 4.3 rom UEMK9 and a slightly older UEMK4 with a DEMJ9 radio.
I have tried lots of radios - DM3, XXDME4, XXMI6, XXMJ5, XXMJ2, and some other modem.bin
From what I understand its when you go from newer to older roms that you get IMEI problems, so its prob useless to try pre 4.3
Its all a bit confusing to me and which rom has which radio seems like an arcane mystery.
It is quite possible that I flashed a same version 4.3 rom but my old radio was different and not knowing it was such a minefield on Galaxy phones I never checked that or bothered with a back up.
I may have to resort to paying the people at unlocksamsung online £26 to reset my IMEI
Can anyone tell me, is it just the radio that causes the IMEI problem and should I just trawl through flashing radio zips until my IMEI comes back so I can save the efs file?
BTY everything else seems ok SN is correct and wifi works fine, I just can't get on a network without my correct IMEI
Thx
i also have the same issue on my note 2 gt-n7100 and now phone does no respond to the touch post rooting and all..i am tired of rooting and unrooting the phone like 100 times allready and now my phone is stuck in loop

big problem with my S4 mini Duos i9192

Hi everybody!
I have a big problem with my S4 mini Duos i9192, so I´ll try to explain everything as better as I can:
The phone is NEW, i bought it a week ago in Chile and I bring it to Argentina. It was working fine (both sim cards, wi fi, camera, etc..) until it started to reboot like crazy.
I discovered that it could be solved with a simple factory wipe, but I did it without any success. After that I found somewhere that sometimes this could be solved with an update of the firmware. I dont know what my factory firmware was (Yes, I´m a newbie), but I downloaded I9192XXUCNG2 from SamMobile and flashed it with Odin3 following all the steps. It wasn´t any update available in KIES, so I decided to try that russian Kit Kat version.
It didn´t solve my problem, so I flashed it several times, like 10 times.. and until now I still stuck like before. Then I tryed to flash other Jelly Bean versions (I9192UBUBND1, I9192UBUBNA2, I9192UBUBND2, I9192UBUBMK5), but I wasn't allowed to proceed so I am now stuck in Kit Kat and dont know how to do a downgrade to solve my problem someway.
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0
Dont know what to do.. could it be a hardware problem? The moments when the phone is working without rebooting everything looks fine.
Help please! & Thanks for reading! :good:

OK, thanks for the advice.
I´m worried because the problem emerged in JB and in KK it keeps bothering...
Now I dont know if the guys of the service will reject my phone alluding that I modified the firmware :crying:
Any other comments will be welcomed.
Regards.

If I were in your shoes I'd try:
1. root the phone
2. install CWM recovery
3. install CyanogenMod 11, KitKat 4.4.4
All this is available for I9192. You can find proper procedures on XDA.

Thanks..
I'll try that if I have no luck with Samsung Technical Support
did anything help you to solve it ? I'm from ARG as you are and I brought my I9192 from Panama and I have exactly the same problem even with CM12 (lollipop).
Cheers
