Hi, I faced a problem when I am trying to flash CM 11 into my original 2.3.5 GB Hong Kong Ace 2 (which is a pretty old phone), which no KK nor JB stock rom has been provided (for the HK version), I have my baseband version and IMEI lost.
So, I have tried to backup my IMEI info by copying the 'system\lib\tee' folder and put in into my new system.
The IMEI and the baseband version was restored (I8160ZSLK2), Bluetooth is functioning but I still have no network, despite the fact that my phone has somehow detect my service provider. It seems that the folder I have backed up is outdated for the CM11, and I would like to ask if there is any possible solution to this problem?
Any kind help would be appreciated.
*The backup of my tee folder is attached.

So I was running on stock, rooted rom. Everything was working well. But I wanted to get rid of the Korean apps.
soI flashed a stock based rom found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2462453
Flashing was successful, but my phone no longer reads my sim.
So I went back to stock by following the guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Again it was successful but my phone does not read my sim anymore.
I tried different working sim, same problem
Tried reflashing. same thing.
Also I noticed it does not show my phone IMEI under phone identity.
Can anyone help me how to fix this, or point me to a guide I could follow?

Any luck in fixing this problem? I'm having the same issue after trying to install Update v5 with Knock On. I tried installing the basebands but most of them will give Service Disabled with Unknown IMEI. But the E988_HK_Final baseband shows the IMEI and Phone Number but has No Service though or very weak signal. Also, it seems like the QRemote also stops working in my case.
Please flash LG F240L Rom (KDZ File), It will work,

It looks like your EFS partition is corrupted. Did you back it up through Freegee before installing the custom ROM?

I had this happen to me with an e980 out of the box. I ordered it online, and was in the process of adding my apps and customization without ever rooting it or doing anything outside of warranty and all of a sudden I got "Insert a valid sim card". Just happened out of the blue and I only had that phone for 12 hours. It is some rare hardware issue that AT&T couldn't figure out either. I believe it is the sim slot that is malfunctioning because in mine it wouldn't recognize any sim card but my sim cards worked in other phones.
If you have a contract phone, undo root, flash the stock rom, factory reset and call tech support. They replaced mine for free because it was determined to be a hardware issue. Good luck.:silly:
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.
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

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
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.
