help, I was using my note 3 and I realized that telling me only emergency call, I felt weird because where I live I have good network coverage. I restarted it and says "not registered on the network." I flashed the stock rom 5.0 but still the same.
I read some about missing EFS folder
Please help me
Try a factory reset.
Odin back to stock.
I did it but nothing happened
Re seat sim card check contacts put it back in, Do you get any bars? Red X?
You say "flash" but did you try Oden on the pc ?
Try a different sim card.
Restore Your Backup, You made???
Re flash radio don't let oden restart your phone pull battery put battery back in and go straight into bootloaded and reflash radio again.
Running out of ideas...
I solved the problem, I took it to a friend, it was something about the IMEI of the phone.
Thank you for your help

I was trying to update my phone with a lost kernal via odin and something went wrong. When I got done it said firmware update failed and to redo via Kies. Tried that and the program would not recognize the phone. Finally got back to stock after much fiddling around and I have no signal and my phone is locked in airplane mode and it wont come out. I read a thread about clearing cache and restarting but that did not solve the problem. The one thing I did notice is in about phone in baseband and hardware reads "unknown". I dont want to take it to Sprint because my Odin counter reads 27 and I dont have a jig to reset, any help would be highly appreciated
if your baseband reads unknown you flashed using the phone box and overwrote your modem driver.
easy enough to fix however we don't have aan eg30 modem driver
so your stuck with eg12 for a bit.
still works though check out

Worked perfectly, thanks man!!!!
Hello, I believe I soft bricked my SGH-T889. I was attempting to install CyanogenMod on it using the install app via Windows 8.1. However, somewhere in the middle of the installation, I think it was attempting to install the recovery, and next thing I know when I look back to check, the application on my PC said that CM could not talk to my phone. I then noticed I was stuck on the screen with Cid and a white background. Nothing else!
So, I took out the battery and then attempted to boot into recovery, my result is Cid and the white background screen. I then attempted to boot up the phone, my result was Cid and the white background screen. I then booted into Download Mode, and attempted to flash the root66_TMO_T889UVUCMK7_2.tar.md5 to go back to stock rooted, however, Odin3 3.07 is not recognizing the phone when I plug in the USB cable. I do not get the "Added!" message anywhere. It has always worked before.. please help me! I'm stuck with a phone that cannot do anything but show the blue Cid android.
I so regret flashing the ROM through TWRP. If anyone can provide assistance, it would be most appreciated!
Also, when I boot the phone, there is a red LED that flashes once. What does that mean??
Well what do you know, Odin finally recognized my phone, and the "added!" message in the box appeared. I guess it was because I plugged into the different USB port on my PC , and I went into download mode, and Odin recognized my device. I was then able to flash the root66 4.3 firmware. Problem solved on my own. Now I may flash it again, but this time using TWRP.
But, now let's see what happens. I was only wanting to flash this ROM to see if I have a signal on my phone, because I haven't since I flashed DN4 LTE v2 ROM and the Addon v1.1 (without rebooting) and I have absolutely no signal, not even on stock.. anyone know what's wrong?
EDIT: Okay, T889 is running on root66 4.3 stock firmware. However, I do not have a signal. Status bar is showing a white circle with cross. Baseband version is T889UVUCMK7. Network is unknown, signal strength is -113 dBm 0 asu, mobile network type is unknown, service state is out of service, mobile network state is disconnected. My IMEI is showing correctly. Why don't I have a signal? I'm searching everything on XDA.. and yes, my SIM is inserted correctly, and airplane mode is off. I wonder if this phone SIM reader is dead.. that cannot be the case. Also, when I insert my SIM into my Galaxy S3, it works perfectly fine. So the SIM card is not dead. What should I do?
EDIT2: Went into Settings > Mobile networks, and searched for available networks. Tapped on T-Mobile, and nothing. I scrolled down the status bar and now I get "selected network (T-Mobile) not available" can anyone please help me?
EDIT3: I just reset the binary counter to 0, and the status is official in Download Mode. Flashed stock T889UVUCMK7_T889TMBCMK7_T889UVUCMK7_HOME.tar.md5, and still no service and signal. I'm going to attempt to use a different SIM card later during the day, if that doesn't work, I'm completely out of options. If anyone can provide assistance for me, that would be most appreciated. Thanks.
No longer accepting any solutions, problem is fixed.
Picked up a Note 2 T889 a few days ago. The phone was on 4.3 stock when I got it.
I flashed a 4.3 rom, but when it finally started up, there was no SIM card recognized - even though the phone worked fine before I flashed the rom. Being the quick thinker I am, I downloaded the 4.3 stock and attempted to flash it through Odin without any success. The firmware will lock up when it tries to flash the modem, soft bricking the phone, which I can get around by re-starting the install-recovery-then-everything-else process over.
I tried grabbing the modem.bin and flashing that straight from the stock package, but the phone still says no SIM. When I put the SIM in another phone, it works fine. I've done everything I can think of (short of putting stock back on, because again, stock won't work for some reason) to try and solve the issue. At this point, I'd deal with having stock on the phone if I could get it to recognize the SIM.
I'm going insane trying to get it solved and I know it's something simple.. Anyone?
Thanks in advance.
Hi i have rogers s3 i think it's exactly the same as tmobile. It was on the stock rom, not unlocked.
I updated my software security update that was pushed to my phone, and then after it installed and restarted is just says "unfortunately com.android.settings has stopped" and when i click ok it just pops up again ! i can't use anything or do anything.
So far i have tried booting in safe mode, doesn't help, i have tried to use kies to connect by usb, won't connect.
At this point i just want to get my pictures off and some voice recordings and things like that.. really i would love to get back to the way it was, but if i can only try to backup data that would be awesome but my phone does nothing when connecting threw usb. how can i save the data ?
Can anyone please help me ? should i try to flash the old software back ? quiet crazy that you could accept an update and it ruins your day at work, i hate updates but i clicked this one, and here i am, so frustrating.
Thanks
The T-Mobile s3 hardware is not the same as the Rogers s3.
Your post should be in the att s3 forum as the att and Rogers version are the same.
I recommend you boot the phone into recovery mode to see if the phone is detected as an external drive by the computer. If it is not detected, I suggest flashing twrp, booting into twrp, and then mounting the data partition in twrp, connect the phone to your computer, and copy the required data files.
Dear People,
I have lost my IMEI number. Only if I look in download mode I can view my IMEI. My phone runs with everything except that it doesn't connect to a network anymore. It started yesterday suddenly when I restarted my phone because I thought my phone needed a fresh restart. During boot it crashed halfway during the samsung logo, playing an alarming sound then rebooting again and slowly restarting.
I tried factory reset and flashing the nougat version I have (from forum here) with odin 3.11 again. Went to samsung stand at bestbuy and they couldn't help me either. Because I bought it second hand I cant rely on warranty even though it would be valid.
Does anybody know a way to restore the IMEI? I don't have a backup of the efs or anything I wasn't flashing roms I was checking facebook in firefox.
Anyway any tips appreciated!
get an octopus box, that is what I have and it sails right on through bad imei, no imei, frp lock, all that.
about 300 dollars
