Hi
I am creating this post after searching for many hours and trying multiple things mentioned on xda and other sites. but nothing worked for me
I have T889V ( Note 2 from WindMobile) and by mistake I flashed At&T stock rom which resulted in loss of baseband and IMEI
Right now phone is working with only Wifi ( NO 3G and calls)
I have backup of this phone when I bought it. I have following backups
1. TWRP EFS backup
2. NVRAM Backup
3. QPST Backup.
4. Backup of m9kefs1, m9kefs2 and m9k2efs3
Tried following things
1. I have tried to ODIN stock Wind firmware but it did not bring back baseband
2. . Tried to flash modem from Tmobile 889 , but baseband still remains unknown.
3. Tried to odin Tmobile firmware but it always fails at radio/modem step.
4. Tried multiple pit files but all gets stuck at " Mapping pit file"
5. Tried to odin stock 4.12 firmware from Wind and manually copied m9kefs1, m9kefs2 and m9k2efs3 using dd , baseband still remains unknown.
6. Tried to restore my backup with QPST but it says says no phone connected , even though when I add port it sees COM3-USB/QC Diagnostic. Yes I changed mode to "RM*** + DM + MODEM".
Can someone please help me in getting this phone working again.

hi guys, i flashed the lte modem on my phone and it seems that its wiped out my efs folders, ive been trying to restore my efs folder with nvtools and qpst, neither seems to work since somehow dm mode is not responding to them
any solns? ty in advance for any help
a couple of things:
ive already odin'd back to stock, no luck on restoring efs(perhaps im doing something wrong?) i dialed *#7284# and put it into the RNDIS+DM+MODEM mode, nvtools says phone failed to answer while QPST says that comm7(the samsung serial port) is not a phone
its pretty had to do this since the phone is rebooting itself every other minute
Questions and help issues go in Q&A

Thanks

Been there, sucks. For me to get out of the constant restarts I had to flash the lte modem again. Flash stock (odin) flashed cwm (odin), put the modem on my external sd card and flashed that.At least that way I could work on it a little. And below is basically what I did to finally get it to work. Hard to say all my steps as I was trying everything.
Well I dont really know how I got mine back to life, tried all the standard stuff from the threads,got my imei back but had no network,network type,service nothing helped. last resort I said whatever ill try anything now. Came across this
http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-n...3g4g-aws-bands-on-att-galaxy-note-2-sgh-i317/
whatever it did it restored everything (cold see carrier,network,etc)but corrupted imei, next i followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117
If you need this is a complete no imei nv backup I used before flashing my imei with the generator
http://db.tt/4hunZ7qy
used the imei generator, then the writer (link on post does not work for the imei generator,so found it here
http://d-h.st/vVV
Wrote my imei back and presto, back in action. Fully functional again, including 4G
Like I said this was a last resort, but worked

got it fixed on friday, was so tired that i went to sleep
basically i followed someone's post on the forum(forgot name) and flashed the tmo modem, since the mct one always gave me the bootloop, then i enabled DM mode and finally got nv tools/qpst to recognize my phone, it appears that the issue was that the drivers does not recognize the new modems..
anyway, once i was done restoring nv, i flashed the tmo lte modem and paranoid android
now i have my imei back and i can use lte
although my bluetooth address still says unknown..not sure if normal
My bluetooth also says unavailable, I would think if you are not hooked up to bluetooth then it should say unavailable. Im to scared to flash the tmo lte modem again...
I had an issue earlier, where I couldn't get into recovery, so I had to mess with Odin...
Now that I have my recovery back and is able to boot up, I am not able to:
Connect to service
Use any internel phone memory
Settings > About > Baseband version "Unknown"
I have tried stock, cleanrom, Jedi Rom, they all ended with the same result.
Also running on the correct modem.
Would flashing pit file save it from brick?
Device: i317M
Would any suggest me to try anything out before I send it to Samsung?
Sounds like you wiped your imei or /efs partition. Not sure of a solution atm
Look into NV item repair for either the Note 2 LTE or the North American SGS 3.
So, I have my T-Mobile SGH-T889 Note II and a few days ago, I was trying to move to a different rom and in the process ended up losing the imei and baseband. I do not have a backup of my efs folder, and none of the common "tricks" to fix it are working. There are no Qualcomm USB settings when I try the *#7284# and flashing the phoneutil.apk file didn't fix that.
It was to the point where the phone wouldn't get wifi or cell signal but after flashing back to 4.1.1 image, Wifi is working and the phone is re-rooted.
So now I basically have a small tablet...
Is there any hope of getting the IMEI/baseband fixed so that my husband can use my note II? I've already upgraded to a note 3.
Attached are the images of the efs folder (imei folder is empty) and also of the About Device area in settings.
How did you "flash back to 4.1.1 image"?

Heya,
So this week I had some issues with my efs partition (phone got boot stuck). Took me a while but managed to solve it by creating a new partition with some commands I found in a guide.
After that I installed a custom rom (DN3) and phone turned on (!!! big success so far).
What I noticed is that my phone allows me to call only emergency numbers. Wifi works fine.
An exact description of what happens:
* When I set to automatic network search - it shows the network bars but without the H sign with arrows indicating it sends/receives data
* When I go to manual and click on my mobile carrier (Pelephone) it immediately says "Registered on network" - and after that still no H with arrows, and I get a network message saying "No Service. Selected network (Pelephone) not available"
* Internet or sms/phone calls not working in any of the choices.
Here is what I have tried so far:
1) Switching properties in mobile network to 2g/3g and automatic network search / manual network search
2) I tried adding APN
3) Installed different rom (Omega V29)
4) Installed 4.3 rom (DN3 version 3.2) - still didn't work. then installed modem (MJ9) and dMK4kernel as described in this guide
5) I tried installed the stock firmware (downloaded from Sammobile)
6) Tried installing XXDME4 Modem
7) I tried of course inserting current sim to different phone and other working sim to this phone - so the problem is not with the sim.
8) Made EFS backup and restored it - not sure why this should work as it seems my EFS is corrupted somehow, but tried it anyway
I am currently using DN3 v5.2 rom
I have CWM recovery
I made EFS backup (though after problem started - as my phone had more serious problems before)
I am rooted
My imei is reading 0049 - i saw in some posts that it means something is corrupted...
I tried searching for threads in here and on other sites, only thing I haven't tried yet is changing imei and I understand thats illegal in some countries + in XDA-Developers, plus it can be very risky - so please any help besides that would be appreciated.
Please help... No idea what to do now. If you want me to download something please provide the link
Thanks!
Have you taken efs backup before installing the rom? If yes then restore it. Google for how to restore efs backup.

No, don't have efs backup from before as didn't have any means of making it
Anyone?
My SM-P607t has a mismatching Baseband (P607TUVUANE2) and Build number (P607TUVUANK2). I believe they should be the same... my other tablet has both on build and baseband at P607TUVUANK2. That tablet connects to T-Mobile fine. The one with mismatching does not. It also says custom both in os and download mode even though I used Odin and then later Kies to try to get the baseband and build synced.
The baseband just stays at P607TUVUANE2 and I cannot get rid of the custom status.
I think this may have started when I installed TWRP on the tablet at 4.4.2 and then used restored a backup from 4.4.4.
I tried odin with P607TUVANK2... no error but baseband doesn't get updated. Kies wouldn't do anything with it since build at latest. I Odin'd back
to 4.4.2 and then let Kies update to 4.4.4 but the baseband didn't update.
And it still says Custom in both Download mode and in OS.
Any help appreciated.
Bug in the CWMR
Hello?
I did root in Galxy Note SM P601 lt033g Exynos (Wi -Fi and 3G), but realized that my CWMR was " bugging " for lost functions like wipe dalvick , Backup & restore, install zip from sd of etc.
I've done several searches on the Internet and apps to find the CWMR compatible with my device , but only encounter files for wi -fi versions and lte (4G )
Information that appears in the recovery mode is P601XXUCNJ1 , which is different from my base band P601UBUCOD1 . NEED TO SOLVE THAT PROBLEM TO RESTORE FUNCTION BACKUP & RESTORE because I intend to upgrade to CM 12. Grateful for the help and attention.
