Hi everybody !
I am a hungarian man, living in Sweden, sorry if my english is pour.
I have got lot of help here with all my android phone, a have some.
I ususally could find here every information to solve my android phone problems.
I am writing first time here to ask som help because a have a strange problem.
I have a note 2, i bought i sweden 2 years ago.
I could root and installed custom rom.
When i did it last time for 1 month ago, i flashed stock rom JB 4.3 from sammobil
N7105XXUEMK9_N7105DNFEMK2_N7105XXUEMJ9_HOME with ODIN, it was OK.
When i started the phone, it forget phone service. There is no sim card, no imei, no 4g.
I know it was my fault i did not make nandroid backup before flashing new one.
I tried to fix, i could download some kind of a service stock files (rom, modem, csc, pit) and tried to reflash,
but it says error, when it flash the modem.
When i flashed only the original JB 4.12 swedish stock rom from sammobil, i could have gsm service, but i have no internal memory, either mobil internet. I could flash perseus kernel, which can use micro sd as an internal memory, so phone is functioning, but no 4G.
Phone is working anyway, i can go to download mod to flash anything, but i could not fix mobile net either way.
I can chose:
if i want to use gsm to call with this phone, i have JB 4.12 but some problem with the internal memory and no 4g
if i want to use usually the phone with JB4.3 with the internal memory and microsd, i have to forget all gsm service
that is a kind of a strange for me
i tried what i could, this phone phone belong to my son already, and he would like to use 4g
i thougt about EFS error ? or modem error ?
i tried to flash lot of custom or stock rom, but no mobile net
unfortunately i have no efs backup, either do not have some kind of other earlier backup, when the phone was OK.
has somebody some kind of a EFS backup ?
even i downloaded EFS program wich can restore EFS but i have no backup
can somebody provide link to download new full service stock files (pit,rom,modem,csc) ???
i have international LTE Note 2 / GT-N7105
please help

Recently, I've flashed a r800a, unlocked with the help of Alejandrissimo, with CyanogenMod and it was working wonderfully.
Since it's a relative's backup phone, I decided to do one last cleanup and return it to them. Inside Android itself, I called for a factory reset and, by accident, clicked on "wipe SD Card" as well.
Silly me, I totally forgot about wiping SD Cards and losing IMEIs with CyanogenMOD (I still keep a /EFS backup of my original Galaxy S).
After a reboot, I noticed that the IMEI is listed as Unknown. I didn't try putting a SimCard in it, to see if the network allows unknown IMEIs to be on it, but I'm somewhat worried now.
I had a ClockworkMod backup of the original firmware, but it was on the phone itself, so that's a goner. I'm thinking reflashing the original stock .FTF file, but I don't think that will restore my IMEI, will it?
Any help?
Since I figured this wouldn't have much support, I decided to do some research for the past 3 hours and managed to fix it myself.
I fixed it by flashing the stock version of the 2.3.4 Generic American firmware for the x800a using Flashtool version 0.6.9.1 (the newer ones wouldn't recognize the .FTF files).
That recovered my IMEI and Baseband. Then I re-installed Cyanogenmod 9.1.0 by following the CyanogenMod blog instructions and the IMEI and Baseband are still there.
I tested with a simcard and I can, again, make calls and join the network.
Hope this can be helpful for other people that find the same issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Good morning guys, let me tell you my history. Few days ago I bought a note2 from a guy who told me that he unlocked it via imei, the phone was on 4.3 and everything worked fine, so later that nite I decided to reflash it and install a rom to have a note3 experience, but wow I lost imei, until now I can't make calls or send SMS, WiFi sometimes don't work I can't install the WiFi fish patch, is all a mess, I really love this phone
today I could downgrade to 4.1.2 via Odin mobile pro, everything is working fine...except the imei thing... I tried to install ariza patch for 4.1.2 but philz say status7 and don't install it... I tried twrp but it can't install it
my actual imei is a fake one as I read 0049...
guys please help me, I really need to use my phone, what can,I do to install ariza at least
thank you, and sorry for my bad english
Well done, you have just corrupted your IMEI, it is kind of unrecoverable, the reason flashing a new rom causes issues is because it overwrites the patched kernel and modem files, to fix your phone you can go to your local phone repair shop and use a certain bit of equipment that I cannot mention the name of to patch new kernels and modems as well as rewriting new clean EFS to replace the corrupt one.
NB: ariza patch is a way of patching the modem
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
Hey guys,
I am a new soul here after about a month of searching through this forum and google etc... I really need some help.
After I bought my GT-N7100 Samsung Galaxy Note II as a used phone, I flashed it through the official SmartSwitch (the new version of Kies) so I could get a fresh phone with stock firmware.
After that I used Galaxy_S Unlock app for a network unlock. At this point I think that the app didn't generate a backup of the efs folder (it told me it did, but then i found that my sd card was corrupted and had to throw it away - just my luck), and left me stuck with an invalid IMEI (the generic one 0049).
So I tried flashing the stock rom through Kies and SmartSwitch and flashing stock roms from sammobile, even tried downloading custom kernels, modems from xda, but nothing worked.
After all this, I have a full signal, unlocked phone (not asking about sim unlock or anything), but not registered on network. I think it is strange that it is showing me a full signal without a SIM car in the phone.
If anyone could help me out, that would be great.
Thank you in advance,
alexns89
P.S. I'm a newbie about the terms so please, be patient if I don't understand you.

Thanks for the reply.
I already did that and the 0049 imei still stands there I even tried downgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 and still nothing
Hello, last week I was given a Samsung Galaxy Ace II to install a custom ROM on, however, after flashing CM 11 I noticed that the phone wasn't recognizing the sim card, so I tried to downgrade again but I got the same issue. So far I've installed about 10 different stock firmware and updates and the phone still doesn't want to recognize the sim card.
The phone was originally working with the operator Movistar (Venezuela). But it seems like there's no official firmware for my country. I've already tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53921158&postcount=8 and it didn't work.
There's just one thing that I've read online but haven't tried, something that has to do with the "tee" folder, I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with it, and I also don't know where to get the original files from.
If there's anything that you guys know that might help me, please post it.
PS: The phone was originally running 2.3.6 GB (In case that matters).
PSS: Yes, I am pretty dumb for not backing up the entire firmware prior to installing CM, but there's nothing I can do now.
