[SOLVED] Phone stuck on EDGE:2

went to bed last night with 4g speeds and everything...turned phone on this morning and now im stuck on EDGE:2 and i just cant get it back to regular hspa+....can anyone lend a hand?? been like this all day and its driving me crazy
EDIT/SOLVED: idk how but it fixed it right up...back in july when the whole IMEI scare was going on,i waited until Peoplearmy released a way to back up and restore the IMEI. All though i didnt have a IMEI problem i was dealing with a random data loss problem and the restore method said it could fix that too. yesterday i tried to restore 7 qnc backup files i previously made( made one for each new modem released and then used the generate qnc option just to be sure) and NONE OF THEM WORKED! 10 minutes ago, i realized that i never tried restoring the very very first qnc back up on my phone; i was busy restoring all the newer versions. so i restored that very first qnc back up i ever made, rebooted the phone and now i get HSPDA with my first speed test resulting in 18mbps! i think a tear came from my eye! this issue drove me crazy all day yesterday so to those who never made a qnc back up on your phone i suggest you DO IT NOW....never know if you wake up one day and just lose your 4g data, like me.

Sounds like you lost your IMEI. Check out this thread:

i have my IMEI...i know all about the IMEI issue and that dosent seem to be the problem im having...imei is in intact, i can text and call but I just cant get pas EDGE:2

i was stock on edge also but i did lose IMEI , if you have a NV backup maybe try to restore it or maybe try a different modem.

Does it stay this way when you go to a different area? You may want to call tmobile, they're doing a lot of work all over their network and it could be an issue with the tower.
Try putting it to wcdma preferred/only and see if that helps. Dialer code *#4636#

YOU Sir are Awesome. Had the same issue and had tried a few of the peoplearmy qnc's as well. I was just about to re-ODIN my S3 as the next step when I came across this thread.... I had never tried my original qnc either, and when I did it worked like a champ! Thanks so much for pointing out something that should have been so obvious to me.! :good::good::good:

currently using the resources i found in this thread.
thanks for the OP. and thanks for the links.....im still working mine out....pretty sure i lost IMEI due to the ODEX app in the FrostyJB rom i just installed......
I am sure this will get worked out and ill post my experiance as well...

OP, did you just notice slower speeds or was your phone stuck on E? I rooted last night and notice slower speeds.

Can someone help me get my 4G restored? I lost my imei number ( was set to 0), I was able to use nv_items_reader_writer along with the SGS3 nv gen to inject my correct imei number back into the phone.
I have checked under status and my imei is no longer 0 & displays the correct imei, but still no 4G - only edge.
I then made a full nv backup, then restored that backup, but still nothing.
Lastly, I have even tried going into the hidden menus that take you into the phone setup/network setup & that did not work.
I am on the stock rooted rom (root66)
I did not have a original nv backup, hence why I am here lol
any other ideas?

I also have this problem on my LG Optimus g (e970) this is the attached version but I'm on T-Mobile. I have rooted and am running a debloated stock ROM. I have never lost my imei info but I had to make some APN files to get my data to work. I can get 4g to work by restarting the phone and then I have 4g until I lose it and then its locked on to edge. I don't believe I have ever seen the 3g symbol either.

I seriously doubt there's anything that we could do for your problem. The tools we have to work with the IMEI and nv items have only worked for the S3 for me. Tried on several other Samsung models with no success.
Plus if it were to work on your device you'd already have had backups created. Like the OP said, he had to restore the original backup he had made before his problem ever occupied.
Have you tried flashing back to stock? Have you considered that with all the network upgrades T-Mobile has done that maybe the changes you made before to make it work are no longer valid? Have you called T-Mobile to make sure it's not a tower problem on their side?
Also, it's completely normal to never see 3g in the status bar...at least for our S3's anyway.

PM sent to both.
For people with this issue in the future, don't worry about posting, just PM me directly and you'll get a quicker response most of the time. Include the following in your PM
Device model
Current Rom
Current status (imei restored or not. Any other related issues)
How was the imei initially lost
Need to know this so I know what you will need.

Hope someone can help me with no signal and loss of IMEI number

Hello,
I hope someone has some idea as to what I can do to fix my T889 Note 2 as right now it has no signal, does not register on the TMobile network and even worse, after playing with it some more it seems I have erased the IMEI in the EFS folder... Here is what I did:
I was initially using the Jedi X 7.2 ROM with Perseus Kernel, and everything was just fine. But I guess I was itching for something else :laugh: ... Reading thru the threads here I saw that some of us had flashed AT&T roms like Cleanrom without any problems. They said Cleanrom did not include an AT&T radio so it would work just fine for the T889. But just to be sure, after full wipe and flashing Cleanrom, I have also flashed a Tmobile Modem and Perseus Pernel for T889. That's when the problems started....
After flashing Cleanrom I had NO signal and the network unknown message... At that point the phone still showed the IMEI number... I have tried going back to Jedi X and Odin back to stock, nothing helped.... It still showed Unknown Network, and Not registered on network, impossible to make calls....
Reading some more thru other XDA threads I saw that someone had posted a solution that had worked for him by going into the Service menu (by pressing *#197328640#) and then going to UMTS, then COMMON then NV REBUILD and then ERASES ALL EFS1/2/3....
At that time I was pretty desperate and seeing that it had worked for someone else with a similar problem I tried it immediately... Now that I really give it some thought, I can't believe I pressed Erase all EFS !! :laugh:
That's when I also got the phone showing me IMEI 0.... I guess now I have lost my IMEI as well? I have not made any backups, so restoring is not an option for me at this point !!
Would anyone have any ideas to help me revive this phone? thanks a lot :victory:
P.S. I should add that I still do have the IMEI number of course, it's written on the back of the phone and the original box as well...

Sorry you had to go through this man.. i was going through the same thing when i first got my phone. Xda didn't have a forum for the T-Mobile Note II so i decided to root and flash one of the international version Roms without even making a backup first (dumb of me) then i went ahead and flashed "Android Revolution HD" Rom and lost signal and IMEI showed Unknown.. so i asked for help but no answers.. and then "cmenard" dropped a stock Rom which i'm going to link you to.. i flashed that and flashed the modem on top and that solved the problem for me. So i will go ahead and give you the link to the Stock Rom and the modem i flashed to get my phone to work. Please follow the instrucations. Hope this helps!

Dude i lost my imei when i had my gs3 back in july.. I had no one to help me... thanks for hooking the dude up i can only wish someone like you helped me back then... you da man!!!!:good:

appreciate your kind words bro! I hope this helps him get his phone to work again. :fingers-crossed:

I would love to know if this worked for the people that posted no IMEI... If you could post if this worked... It would let me know to keep these two files in a special recovery folder. Thanks

Thanks very much Addis !!! I truly hope this works, will try as soon as I get home from work, in about an hour or so... After trying so many things I have doubts about everything now, but I am keeping my fingers crossed

(UPDATE) : Have managed to download the rom, I am not sure if the file is corrupted or anything, but I keep getting an error message: E:Can't open / external_sd/deodexed_UVALJ1.zip (bad)
Weird, since other roms have flashed just fine....

guys, one thing you MUST DO with gsm devices... back up your IMEI... this is actually stored in a partition on your device, and as of recent there is a handy little app in the themes and apps section to back it up. it is a free app found on the market and offered here on xda. before this there was a tool somebody created to back up and restore this partition
here is the app... download this, back up your IMEI (your efs partition). https://play.google.com/store/apps/...omizer&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

Thank you Addis, no need for you to upload, it seems I finally got a proper download... Flashed it with TeamWin Touch Recovery and no changes, I will try to flash it with CWM also, but that has given me problems with this file.... let's see... Thanks for your help, I will hit your thanks button as soon as I finish writing this...
If all else fails, I will just go ahead and return everything to factory settings and send it in for repair....
P.S. I should mention that I have used a tool found on the GS3 AT&T threads which has worked for my T889 to re-inject my IMEI number back... So now my IMEI number shows up again... But that's about it... Network is still listed as UNKNOWN and Status is listed as Disconnected...

Have you gone into the settings menu, more settings, mobile network and tried connecting to T Mobile that way? If that doesn't work then try to reflash stock T Mobile ROM with Odin and it should reset your network.

Hello again,
Bestplayer55 and anyone else who might need this, this is the tool I have used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997
It's written for the Galaxy S3 for AT&T and other carriers, but it worked for me on the T889 Note 2. Try to read all the instructions carefully .
One of the things you have to do is change a setting in the hidden menu which you access by dialing *#7284# using the stock dialer. In the hidden menu or PhoneUtil menu select USBSettingsMenu choose the correct mode and click ok. The correct mode for the Galaxy S3 is called RMNET + DM + MODEM mode, there was NO SUCH setting for my NOTE 2, but there is one that's very similar, so I chose that....
Then you jump to the section called IMEI Injection ... Pay attention to the way the IMEI is entered, it's a specific sequence, almost backwards....
You have the Instructions in the original thread there, or here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077805
In the end thanks to Peoplearmy for developing this tool.
P.S. I just got home from work, so I will keep trying to flash different roms, now that I got my IMEI number back... Hopefully I can restore service as well...

Thanks a lot for the suggestions, I believe I have tried them before I lost my IMEI number, but I will try them again, it won't hurt !!

Phone is going back to Samsung for repair.... Nothing I have tried has worked ... Let's see what they can do

Hey I was messing with this on my T-Mobile Note II and I changed my RAT mode to WCDMA and now I'm unable to get LTE.
I've done EVERYTHING. I've even ODIN restored it. It WILL NOT connect to LTE anymore. Nothing I do to it makes it want to connect to LTE.
What do I do? Why won't it connect to LTE anymore even after flashing the factory image?
Will erasing EFS1/2/3 do anything to help or is that a really bad idea?
I have no clue what else there is to do. I've tried loading NV defaults but it gives an error for whatever reason.

CM 11 unknown baseband

I came over from the stock TW rom, I could not get signal. Baseband and IMEI information was null - despite using the clockworkmod recovery, I also have tried the modified TWRP version. I then tested the cm10.1, same issue. anyone has any ideas as to why this is happening?

That's because you didn't backup your efs!!! When you install a custom or whatever ROM you should backup your efs, which is the imei and WiFi and those.. When the efs is damaged by flashing a ROM, you can restore the efs backup you had and everything will come back to normal. I'm not sure how to recover your efs if u don't have a backup.. Research
Give me a thanks button if I helped

"Just sharing my experience in solving this issue. Hopefully it will help solve those who have similar issues.
I flashed a file which messed up my EFS partition. I had a backup and tried to use the available programs to restore my EFS using my backup. None worked. I even brought it to the samsung store, but they said they would change the motherboard and reprogram, and replacement and service would cost more than half the cost of a new N7105. I purchased the phone in another country. The people who had stores to repair phones gave up on my phone. They also offered to replace the motherboard for US$175.00.
My phone was originally under a DMB2 rom (from Singapore I think). I flashed a DMC3 rom, and used this for five months, until i encountered the problem.
I initially gave up and got a note 3. But i could not believe the phone was junk and people in XDA (as I observed) do not seem to give up.
After two weeks, i found the solution below, which brought my phone to working condition.
1. I flashed the stock rom N7105ZHDMI2_N7105ZZHDMI2_TGY from sammobile.
2. I flashed a pit file using Odin. The pit file is found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2137008
This restored the baseband. But IMEI was no longer NULL. However, it was still 0.
3. I downloaded and used the EFS Pro from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1308546
Before using EFS Pro, make sure you dial *#7284# and change the setting of Qualcomm USB Settings to
"RMNET + DM + MODEM"
I will not hurt your phone if you do, but EFS Pro will just not work. If you don't do this, the EFS Pro will display "Phone not responding" or something similar.
NOTE: I couldn't find the option with RMNET, but i used the option that also had an "RM*** + DM + MODEM".
After the phone is read, change back the IMEI to what it was originally.
Dial *#7284# again to change back to "MTP+ADB".
It's all working now.
Hope this is able to help someone. Now i have two working versions of Note.

"Just sharing my experience in solving this issue. Hopefully it will help solve those who have similar issues.
I flashed a file which messed up my EFS partition. I had a backup and tried to use the available programs to restore my EFS using my backup. None worked. I even brought it to the samsung store, but they said they would change the motherboard and reprogram, and replacement and service would cost more than half the cost of a new N7105. I purchased the phone in another country. The people who had stores to repair phones gave up on my phone. They also offered to replace the motherboard for US$175.00.
My phone was originally under a DMB2 rom (from Singapore I think). I flashed a DMC3 rom, and used this for five months, until i encountered the problem.
I initially gave up and got a note 3. But i could not believe the phone was junk and people in XDA (as I observed) do not seem to give up.
After two weeks, i found the solution below, which brought my phone to working condition.
1. I flashed the stock rom N7105ZHDMI2_N7105ZZHDMI2_TGY from sammobile.
2. I flashed a pit file using Odin. The pit file is found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2137008
This restored the baseband. But IMEI was no longer NULL. However, it was still 0.
3. I downloaded and used the EFS Pro from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1308546
Before using EFS Pro, make sure you dial *#7284# and change the setting of Qualcomm USB Settings to
"RMNET + DM + MODEM"
I will not hurt your phone if you do, but EFS Pro will just not work. If you don't do this, the EFS Pro will display "Phone not responding" or something similar.
NOTE: I couldn't find the option with RMNET, but i used the option that also had an "RM*** + DM + MODEM".
After the phone is read, change back the IMEI to what it was originally.
Dial *#7284# again to change back to "MTP+ADB".
It's all working now.
Hope this is able to help someone. Now i have two working versions of Note.

THIS IS THE SOLUTION!
SELinux enforced mode stops radio signal from working.
No matter how many times i restored EFS, it wouldnt work.

part of what i did above was taken from this post:
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f777/tutorial-galaxy-s3-backup-restore-imei-without-root-1513909/
take note of the following line:
*If you are running a aosp rom (cm9,cm10,aokp etc) you can use the diag method described HERE"
this might help you also because you are using CM.

[Q] Sudden Wifi and Bluetooth Radios Won't Turn On

Hello,
I have a rooted Tab S 10.5 Wifi that i've had for several months without any issues. I recently took a trip east and at some point over night after playing some netflix, my device's wifi and bluetooth radios have failed to turn on. I have factory reset, completely wiped everything and went to lolipop to no avail. The radios go to turn on, stall for about 1 minute then default back to off. I was running Ironman 1.9 before the sudden fail.
What am i missing? Is there something corrupt beyond the firmware? Is flashing a modem the answer and if so, where do i get them?
Thank you ahead of time for the help

I hope you made a backup of your EFS partition which you can flash before flashing any custom software?
If not you can try EFS Professional and try and repair the efs partition. Select repair NV data.

I did not. I didn't even know that was such a thing at the time. I did download EFS Pro and tried the NV data repair but it says it's not available for my device. The program reports my baseband as blank.

I have make *#268# and in the engineer mode, calibrations statut, all it's -1.
In nv parameters, just calibration NV Backup file manual check failed. All is succeded.

go back to oppo forums or goolge and look for their unbrick tool. it should be a program with chinese characters. if you know what you are doing then connect wait and reboot. the rom installed should be a stock version of color os. if for any reason you are having issues with storage or connectivity try these steps. try re partitioning the device. if you can not do this try downloading an update 2.x.x ( side load it if you cant access storage or copy and paste to root of phone storage ) when you flash this itll give you the newer recovery with the option to merge the partition or not. at this step i would suggest doing a partition switch so sd card wont be an issue again. now as far as connectivity goes download coloros_modem_2.1.5i.zip you maybe able to find it via crdroid thread. flash via recovery right after rom before gapps, you should be functioning again
granted these steps helped me for my x9070

Sorry but i have try a lot of time the Sahara unbrick tool.
I have try many possibilities. But one resolved my problem because the NV items was deleted and my method was to backup the NV items of another Oppo Find 7 32go and reinject it with QPST (Qualcomm).
But i have the same IMEI of my friend backup.

Hello. I still have the same issue and unfortunately no backup of the NV partition.
I would be so happy if someone can send me a backup of the NV partition.
You can change the IMEI with an HEX-Editor to 999999999 for example before you send me your backup.
I am not interested in using your IMEI. I just want my phone working again. Thank you very much.
