Unroot Issues - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I was trying to unroot my phone and run into some issues. I was stuck at the samsung note 2 logo and tried flashing the stock firmware but its not working. on Odin it says it passed but still wont go pass the logo. Now Im stuck at the "Firmware upgrade encountered....." and I cant do much in kies because I dont know my serial number. My note 2 was refurbished and they removed the sticker behind the battery. All i have is the imei number but thats not helping meget the serial number to do the update in kies. Any help is appreciated. Its an SGH-I317 ATT

N7100 4.3 imei repair using z3x

finally found a fix for imei repair for note 2 gt-n7100 and thought id share hopefully it helps someone out
first a bit of background about phone and error
- Phone is a n7100 international version i'm guessing its originally from el salvador since thats were i'm located and a customer brought in phone. The customer stated someone attempted to unlock the phone and damaged imei and had left the phone stuck in a boot loop.
- Going through recovery and factory reseting would not work.
- Unable to find original firmware for any carrier from here i used mexico telcel 4.3 official to flash to stock usin odin v3.09
- The flash worked perfectly and wifi blue tooth and just about everything worked perfectly except imei showed 004999010640000
- i attempted to unlock phone with z3x since it has autoroot for this model but no luck i kept getting error coode 0001
- Various places i read online mentioned that to root n7100 on 4.3 phone had to be factory unlock so i searched and searched and found root files for n7100 that made no mention of phone being unlocked, i did this with odin 1.85 verison and proper root file
- i successfully rooted phone
- after i unlocked using z3x v16.8 tool
- after unlocking phone i attempted to repair imei with z3x but was unable to for some reason i had to re-root phone with odin 1.85

i'm assuming that because at the time of reading the phone info the imei and possibly other folders were damaged, Once processed finished i didn't bother to re read info with box because the process work. also it was a customer phone so i no longer have access to it.
for people interested in purchasing z3x samsung box, theres plenty of links on ebay and various sites.
For repair shops hobbist it works great and well worth investment. my z3x box has easily paid for itself 20x over.
Problems installing DM+MODEM+ADB drivers
Model GT-N7100
rooted with CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100.tar.md5
hello just a few question since I'm having a few problems fixing the IMEI with two Boxes with Z3X and NS Pro both of the boxes don't detect the phone
phone has been rooted successfully, phone is on 4.3, I got Kies installed in my computer drivers to read my SD card installed successfully (MTP+ADB) but when I chose DM+MODEM+ADB and connect the phone to the computer the drivers don't install it just keeps telling me USB Device not recognize I tried it with 3 laptops with the same results the 3rd computer never even had the Box installed all computer give me same error under usb controller I got unknown device I already uninstall and install from there too and no luck
and this is where my problems lies no DM+MODEM+ADB drivers no device detected by boxes any one ever had this problem before and know how to fix it any ideas?
try flashing the phone with a different 4.3 firmware and root using vroot
also theres no need to put phone in dm modem adb, i just enabled usb debugging and unknown sources
possible you havent installed the z3x box right it took me a few tires to be able to read phones by chance have you tried reading other models???

this is one of the boxes that I used in a daily basis, all I did to resolve the problem was try over and over until the box detected the phone

Need Help with EMEI restoration.
Hi Renovo,
I had a tough time trying to fix my Note2 which died on me yesterday. It was giving me the "EFS mount" error.
I spent the whole day flashing custom as well as stock ROMS and and finally found that I can flash the EFS repair file(n7100_odin_efs.tar) with odin. But this has now created the EMEI problem you mentioned below. I am trying to fix that but not sure how to do it.
Would you be kind enough to walk me through step by step??
Also do I need any special hardware for this??
My GTN7100 was bought in India.
I had flashed the UK version of the stock ROm on it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Sandesh

Sim unlock 4.4.2

Is it possible to Sim unlock 4.4.2? Maybe by flashing a 4.1.1 modem?

By Sim unlock, do you mean you want to use an AT&T phone on another carrier? If that's what you are looking for, give me a few minutes to test something.

Yes, of course.
But I am fairly new to the note 2 so I don't have much stored up information. I now see a post that indicates that flashing a certain 4.1.1 modem, MJ2 I think, gives the user a service menu where you can change the unlock setting. So now the OP's question makes sense. Only he should have been able to find the same post I did.
In a minute, as soon as my wife lets me borrow her phone, I'm going to test an unlock tool I know about to see if it works on 4.4.2 stock.

The dialer codes that worked on 4.1.1 to unlock the phone via the hidden menu. Does not work on 4.4.2 anymore. And being you took the ota update, there's no way of downgrading you firmware...
Sorry to tell you..
Another way is to contact AT&T by email, about unlocking the phone. Can't remember what the exact name is, but goggle search it. They'll send you the SIM code, if the phone is out of contact!!! Takes about 2-3 days when I did my skyrocket to run on TMO.

At one time, there was a free app on XDA called GalaxSim Unlock. For some reason, the developer pulled the free app download, and the only version then available was the paid version on Play. I have a copy of the free one from before it was pulled, and it works on the Captivate and the Galaxy S II, and some other galaxy phones, not sure which ones. So I tried it tonight on my wife's Note 2 which is running Stock NE5 with TWRP recovery and has the MC3 boot loader. However, the unlock failed, saying unable to read nvdata. So it's apparently a no go on this phone.

That only works if the contract the phone was in was not defaulted, and or you are the original owner of the phone.
re: sim unlock
I recently bought a soft bricked SGH-I317 (stuck on "firmware upgrade encountered and issue"). I tried flashing LJ2 firmware and got it to change to being hung on the "Samsung Note II" logo. I think this is when it changed as I was trying all sorts of flashing trying to get off the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen (also Kies would not recognize that the phone was connected). Tried different recoveries and firmware without making any progress until I flashed the 4.4.2 (I317UCUCNE5) bootloader. The phone booted into Philz recovery after that. I then flashed the stock LJ2 firmware w/ LJ2 modem, sim unlocked the phone and then flashed Skynote Air 4.3 along with the 4.4.2 (NE5) modem. This is the setup that I am using on T-Mobile now with no problems except that the Knox counter is tripped. Hope this helps shed some light on the problem.
I discovered a problem with Skynote 4.3 with the 4.4.2 bootloader. If I try to charge it with the phone turned off, the phone will freeze at the empty battery symbol and requires a battery pull to get the phone to turn on. Everything else seems to work okay.

My sister sell her note 2 to me because she's gonna upgrade to samsung galaxy S5. It was an att and I'm using T-mobile.
I did check the baseband ver and It was i317UCUCNE5 (4.4.2 OTA). the question is it is safe to flash base band ver i317UCALJ2 using ODIN?
Can you do the step by step process and also links of the files and software did you use please? thanks

It's a network unlock, so you are free to use any GSM carrier. You can lock your sim card -- then a pin is required for your phone to connect to your carrier. It's the old skool method to stop unauthorized use, from the days before a lock screen pin.
I bought a SGH-I317M today off someone. It was locked to Bell Canada. I did the dumb thing by letting Kies update the firmware. And as i've read I'm pretty screwed for downgrading it. I tried unlocking it but the hidden menu didn't give me the 4th option in the network lock path. So i tried bunch of things which at one point required me installing Kies for drivers and thats when I i let it slip and update. So now I'm still searching for a method to unlock my phone. I've gotten philstouch recovery on and Skynote working. I just tried flashing the rogers_j2 modem.. hoping this will work.. you think I should just pay one of those sites or a retailer for the sim unlock ccode?

Please let me know if it works. mine is galaxy note 2 4.4.2 NE5 baseband and I've done some research and they said that if you upload your firmware thru OTA there is a possibility that it will soft brick you phone due to unknown security reason.
I'm just waiting for conformation from some one that it's safe to flash J2 modem on a NE5 OTA
in the US, if your phone is more than 6 months old and your contract is in good standing you can ask for the unlock code. I don't know if Canada is similar.
I was going to post the same question about unlocking I317 4.4.2, and found this post which is similar to what I'm looking for so just want to add to pump the question.
It's been a while but I have done unlocking for other At&t models (S3, S4) and learned that later versions don't with the option in hidden menu to unlock, and the work around is to downgrade. However with devices that have OTA updates, it's not possible to downgrade the bootloader.
Is this the same for Note 2 I317? If so, any other method available to unlock this device to use it on other GSM networks? (I just bought one and it's on Kitkat 4.4.2 UCUCNE5, and looking for unlock...)
It's only the modem that needs to be flashed. So whatever bootloader you're on doesn't matter.
I wanted to unlock my phone today. ATT website wouldn't let me do it until my contract was fufilled, so I did some web searching.
Started with 4.4.2 and NE5 baseband. Loaded original baseband via recovery, and used the debug menu to unlock the sim. After that, updated the baseband back to the latest. Tmobile sim seems to be working just fine.

i was trying to downgrade my i747 from cm-12-20141220-UNOFFICIAL-d2att.zip to a ROM that i downloaded from sammobile site for i747
PDA I747UCDLK3
CSC I747ATTDLK3
i used Odin 3.9 to flash the new ROM
odin showed pass in green and the installation was a success
when my phone restarted all is black no vibration and when i remove my battery and connect my phone to my PC the red led turns on. (i was told those are the signs that my phone is hard bricked)
i tried using a jig but my phone wont start
i was told to find a debrick.img
because i have no jtag equipment nor the experience
Is their a debrick.img for this problem ? :fingers-crossed:
please help
any response will help
thanks in front​
Once the phone is running a 4.3. or newer bootloader, you can never flash any bootloader that is older than 4.3.

Kies Won't Accept My Serial Number

I am trying to use kies to fix my n910a but it won't accept my serial number for firmware upgrade option. I have tried every combo of the IMEI under the battery that I can think of and no luck whatsoever. Does anyone know the proper way to enter a serial for the n910a? BTW my phone is in a boot loop. Details are in my other post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-att/help/n910a-5-1-1-boot-loop-dead-battery-t3346187
I can't get kies nor smartswitch to work.

Yes ...actually the problem is as follows. It's a second hand phone and in settings/about phone ,there was info SM N910F.Later i ve found in samsung recovery this N910AUCU2COC6.
But it was late already ,i had a soft brick without a back up ,i thought.
Factory reset fixed it ,back up was there too in google,but still,I also get two different imei and s/n numbers from software and back cover samsung label sticker.
So...for now , i can't root..! Looks like It's been too long since i 've rooted a misconfigured samsung phone, lol, or pottentially even fake. .Can anybody advice on how to find correct model version so i can proceed or...anything really.?Bit lost here.
