No Serice and I have Null IMEI and blank ServiceMode - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

To keep things short, I flashed stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 via Odin on my Note 2(Wind mobile) because my mom likes the Samsung gimmicky features but I have a problem. I have no cellphone service. I flashed this T889VVLUDNH2_T889VYVLDNH2_T889VVLUDNH2_HOME.tar. The phone says my IMEI is null and the servicemode is blank. I hope someone can help me.
If it helps, I was running lollipop 5.1.1 roms before I wiped everything to flash touchwiz via odin.

This has nothing to do with development.
However unless you have a backup. You'll need to return your phone for a new one.

sorry i posted wrong place, where can i get help, i am new to this, and how do i delete this post
Make sure you odin a rom that included the radio and kernel. Preferably a return to stock type thing. If that didn't work did you back up your efs partition?
Also what did you flash exactly?
OP please read the Forum Rules on posting in the correct Section, Moved & Thank You
I had same situation as you few days ago, I messed up my Rogers note ii with flashed 7100 rom to my i317m. I lost baseband, network imei. Luckily, after I flashed root injected FACTORY Stock rom to my rogers phone, the problem had been fixed, here is the link where you can download the root injected FACTORY Stock rom for you phone. Hopefully, you will get your phone fixed

i flashed a rogers rooted stock version rom on my phone, so now after i did recovery it just keep on shows is a RWC in the recovery mode doesn't matter which stock rom i flash, and its saying a BMC in the download more product name. so its really messed up. because i unlocked the phone from bell, so the guy at bell told me i void the warranty on it. now i don't know what i can do to fix my phone.
Pit CSC file
any idea where i can find a pit file for my bell note 2 so i can repartion it, or that's something only samsung has it
This was a big issue with the gs3 and they've come up with a solution in that thread so given the similarities I would think that would work with some tweaking for the different partitions on the note 2. Check out the gs3 forum & maybe get in touch.. they might be able to help.

[Q] N7100 No Wifi after "Emergency Calls" FIX and WiFi Fix (STOCK 4.3)

Hello Everybody,
I would like to begin by saying how much I've learned in xda-devs in the last few days just by searching around the forum and Fixing different things here and there.
This is such a great community that I decided to register
OK so heres the deal:
Last week i bought a Note-2 (N7100) running Samsung Android 4.1.2 (Israel Version) + Rooted
I wanted to upgrade to 4.3 but 4.3 isn't yet released in Israel according to sammobile.com and other people I asked.
I found a Stock Deodexed Pre-Rooted ROM here on the forums (I think version was MK4), Flashed it, and lost cellular abilities (there is signal but emergency calls only) and WiFi.
Flashed WiFi FIX by Dr. Ketan, and by installing Devil's kernel (Patched_N7100_MK4_KERNEL.zip) and GT-N7100_ModemMJ9.zip I was able to gain 3G Functionality back.
Phone was working great for a few days, but then I decided to upgrade to Dito Note v3.2 because i wanted Note-3 Functionality.
After flashing it, I lost the ability to register to network again, started receiving "UIds on the system are inconsistent " and phone crashed every few minutes, screen stoped working every now and then.
I immediately looked for a different ROM to flash, (couldn't find the original ROM I flashed but i found DrKetan_Custom_ROM_V6_1).
So i wipe the phone, cache, sd-card and everything besides formatting the internal storage, Installed this ROM but still had the same issues with ULDS on the system, phone crashes and display shuts down while phone is still working).
Desperate, I downloaded Stock firmware (With KNOX) and flashed it to my device (I used Odin 3.09 and flashed everything, BL,CP,AP,CSC that was included within the original ROM). this was the Seri-Lanka firmware if I remember right.
This time phone boots without complaining about system files, but got "Emergency calls only" (IMEI and S/N still ok!).
In addition, I now have bootloader with KNOX.
I then thought, maybe the modem version is incompatible with the Cellular frequencies in my country (Israel Freqs: 850,2100), so i looked for countries with similar freq and downloaded official firmware for Thailand.
Flashed it with ODIN (same as before, BL,CP,AP,CSC basically everything) device boots fine, WiFi was working, but couldn't register on network ("emergency calls only") even if you can see your provider while manual scanning, registers successfuly apparently,but still no service.
Fraustrated, I rooted the device (Knox turned 0x1 but it doesn't really matter to me cause no warranty anyway), installed Philiz and flashed the 2 Fixes I mentioned at the begining (Devils kernel + Mj9 modem).
This resolved "Emergency calls only" issue, but now i cannot open WiFi at all!.
I tried to flash WiFi fix that i found in this forums but it didn't work. I've given everything I have in the last 2 days trying to fix this issue but I cant seem to solve this problem.
Now I'm just thankful that I can start/receive phone calls with my device.
I can't seem to understand, how did I not have signal with stock ROM?
could it be EFS was corrupted somehow so that only MJ9 Modem + Devil's Kernel read it?
How can i FIX WiFi?
Included screen-shots of "About Phone" and "*#1234#"
Thanks ahead,

OK Thanks very much for all of your help.
Does it matter what version of 4.3 I choose to flash via Kies?
In Israel only version 4.1.2 is available and I know that going back from 4.3 most likely will erase my IMEI / S/N.
If i choose a stock rom from SamMobile does it matter what country it comes from?
I don't really understand why are there different modems to different countries, aren't all versions alike?

I don't belive in this approach, I know for sure that there is a way.
after re-flashing with Kies and getting "Emergency Calls" again, i tried to flash only the modem, and i saw that i lost connection with cellular but Wi-Fi was still working. only after flashing Devil's kernel it seems that Wi-Fi stops working..
I just got home and i'm not expecting any calls until tomorrow, I will look around maybe an alternative kernel will solve our problems..

Maybe we just need the correct kernel and modem, the problem is that no one's development. Another solution would be to discover how to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1. For now, our only option is to wait for more solutions and development

OK, so as I promised yesterday, I had the time to dig in to this subject yesterday and I managed to find a solution to get both, WiFi and Cellular working (together!)
Here are the steps i took:
1) Installed Stock ROM 4.3 with MK4 as the main and BL version (this will install Knox but i already had it) and modem version MJ9 (Odin 3.09)
2) Root the device with CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100
3) Install custom Recovery (I used philz_touch_6.07.9-n7100.tar.md5)
4) Very important! After device boots it automatically attempts to perform update with samsung! DO NOT LET IT as it will install updated modem version. it is important that we have MK4 Kernel and MJ9 Modem for this to work.
5) Flash via recovery the following files:
a) Patched_N7100_MK4_KERNEL - This installs a patched Kernel only this time because we didn't let phone update version after boot, it will be compatible with Phones version.
b) GT-N7100_ModemMJ9 - This patches the MJ9 Modem.
After performing all the above steps I finally managed to get Cellular connectivity and WiFi together. Hope it works for other people as well.
I still don't understand why Stock Kernel with Stock MJ9 modem won't work, what do those patches contain that allows me to get connectivity to cellular network?
This device is not black-list and IMEI is still original and S/N but for some reason won't work with stock.
Seems to me like some of the ROMs maybe modify EFS so that only patched Kernel and MJ9 Modem will work and it's not backwards compatible.
Can anyone confirm this? and if so, is there a way to convert the "modified" EFS version to stock compatible version? or is the EFS file encrypted with propriety Samsung encryption?
You can download the referred files here
is good to know that you resolved your problem! Only one question, this is the rom of my country, will serve me? Or that rom should I use? The specifications are from sammobile.com

Hi, as you can see modem version for you is ending with MJ4 so it's not the same as my version.
Look for a version that has modem version ending with MJ9 and then apply the patch (because patch is for MJ9 modem, and not any other modem from my understanding)
Hope you get your device working!!
More explanation
Here are the steps i took:
1) Installed Stock ROM 4.3 with MK4 as the main and BL version (this will install Knox but i already had it) and modem version MJ9 (Odin 3.09)
2) Root the device with CF-Auto-Root-t03g-t03gxx-gtn7100
3) Install custom Recovery (I used philz_touch_6.07.9-n7100.tar.md5)
4) Very important! After device boots it automatically attempts to perform update with samsung! DO NOT LET IT as it will install updated modem version. it is important that we have MK4 Kernel and MJ9 Modem for this to work.
5) Flash via recovery the following files:
a) Patched_N7100_MK4_KERNEL - This installs a patched Kernel only this time because we didn't let phone update version after boot, it will be compatible with Phones version.
b) GT-N7100_ModemMJ9 - This patches the MJ9 Modem.
Hi there, and thanks a lot for your effort, I am really confused about step number 4, I haven't detected any update from Samsung's side, can you please provide more explanation?
Thanks

@Larner had the same issue and i assisted him to recover
Return to stock rom
what I guided first unroot the device completely
Now go to stock recovery and perform a hard reset that should fix the problem if this does not happen nothing can be done.

Hi Tonylee,
i have flash MJ5 bootloader before but its failed
is Blpatch the same like MJ5?? how do i know which bootloader i have now??
is this a stock rom N7100XXDMG1_N7100ODDDMG1_INU_Prerooted.rar ??
i will try your advice and hope it will help me to make my phone work again....
Us an app called Phone Info https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo to.see what bootloader you have installed already. Post here what that is. The blpatch is the dmg1 bootloader, you cannot flash the dmg1 rom if mj5 is installed. Yes the dmg1 rom is totally stock. just pre rooted.
If it fails whilst trying to.flash the mj5 then.its likely you have a mk4 or.newer bootloader wbich means you cannot.flash dmg1.
in that case the only thing I coukd.suggest is to.flash the very latest rom specifically for.you carrier

Im willing to bet then that you have MK9 bootloader. This means you cannot flash any stock rom that has a bootloader MJ9 or older. Only MK4 and newer.

Right as id guessed your on mk9 bootloader. Ignore that now. Your knox warranty is 0x1 which is the tripped state.
You cant downgrade the bootloader lower than mk4. You cant flash a stock 412 rom If it is loaded with a bootloader Which I think Is the norm.
you have your imei so you can flash a stock 4.3 rom for your carrier or a custom recovery and custom rom such as ARHD

You could flash a spanish stock rom but id go with twrp recovery and arhd.
You cant downgrade your bootloader your stuck with what youve got now. Dont fret, im also stuck on mk9 since I flashed an mk9 rom for a developer to test something. If.you want to use 412 specifically there are custom 412 roms but you might as well.go.with 4.3 now

You cant downgrade you bootloader. You cant.flash these roms because they contain a bootloader that is older than mk4 which means it will fail.
the only.option you have for.flashing stock.is.to.flash a 4.3 one.
if you want older android on your phone you will have to go.down the custom.route
the only stock.roms that will flash ok are 4.3 roms or roms that dont contain a bootloader update (most of.them.do.do)

[Q] Not registering on Network / Wrong IMEI after flashing stock 4.3

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

Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100 Or SPH-L900) Uncertain? PLease help me

Hi all and a great big up to the developers of XDA. Thank you very much for your time and helps you give, really thank you.
Tonight, I just ask you the problem I encounter with my phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II but quite frankly I do not know if it's a GT-N7100 or SPH-L900.
When I go into Settings "About device"; here is the info I have:
1) Software Version: L900VPUCHO3; Hardware Version: L900.09; Android Version: 4.4.2; Model Number: SPH-L900; Baseband Version: L900VPUCHO3; Kernel Version: 3.0.31-3084104 dpi @ SWHD8903 # 1 Mon Aug 24 5:13:18 p.m. KST 2015; Build Number: KOT49H.L900VPUCHO3
If we stick to these information, the phone is really Galaxy Note II SPH-L900
However, when I use my IMEI number on the site imei.info this is what I like information:
2) Model: N7100 Galaxy Note II
Brand: SAMSUNG
IMEI: TAC: 990002 FCC: 11 SNR: 936743 CD: 9
http://www.imei.info/?imei=990002119367439
So please, tell you what's wrong with this phone and if possible how to go about solving the problem, thank you!

I'm not familiar with the SPH-L900. If the bootlaoder is unlocked, you may be able to flash TWRP and a custom ROM based on a stock n7100 ROM.
If you want to use Odin, you won't be able to flash the n7100 ROM to the L900 because Odin will prevent flashing an n7100 ROM to a phone with an L900 bootloader.
Where did you get the phone?

I purchased the phone with a friend who brought used usa.
However, how do you think it is possible to flash GT-N7100 sstock rom on SPH-L900?
Also before I forget, even with the official rom my phone I can not activate mobile data because it does not exist in phone so I have to connect on the wifi only.
You may not be able to connect to your cell company because the phone may not support the required frequencies.
Also, the phone is a CDMA phone: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_ii_cdma-5152.php
I don't know of any way to flash a stock N7100 rom onto a L900.

Did you compare your cell company's frequencies to the phone?
Did you try to manually add your company's APN settings to the phone for data? Can you make phone calls?

Yes I can make calls even send messages. By cons, you can not manually add APN data from my operator as this part does not exist in the official rom my phone. My when I installed the custom rom Cyanogenmod 12.0 Nightly, I could put my APN data operator and Internet access via mobile data because this option exists in the CyanogenMod ROM.
Did you try to flash a stock L900 ROM to the phone, root, and add APN?

Yes and now that's what is the official rom SPH-L900 that is installed on my phone and I even rooter but still can not add the APN data from my operator as always nonexistent option in Roma .
In addition, there are only three languages (English, Chinese and Spanish) ...
Yes, the Sprint phones lave limited languages. Have you tried morelocale app to add languages?
The APN may be locked because the phone was made for use on Sprint.
What about flashing TWRP and a custom ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-sprint/development

Apparently I bought a bad phone ...
With all these little worries, I admit I am bummed
Don't be bummed. The phone is a good phone and may be perfectly suitable after installing a custom ROM.
One CM, were you able to connect to the data network?

Yes, under CyanogenMod 12.0 (Android 5.0.2) I was able to connect with mobile data.

Maybe try a ROM that is based on the stock Sprint ROM.

If the current ROM is rooted, this might help, although it is a paid version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ale.android.apnmanagerwithanimation&hl=en
There may be free apn managers available on the Play store.
This ROM may also work: Maybe this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...m-stock-oh3-rooted-deknoxed-deodexed-t3221123
