I got my galaxy note ii from Canada Rogers network just yesterday. In order to add more language option, I falshed a N7100 ROM to my I317M. After that I got no signal on the phone, and I check into the 'about device' option, I see unknown baseband, IMEI, network and so on. I had backup the efs file, but when I trying to flash back to my phone, just nothing happen.
I did research on that, find out that to flash a stock ROM maybe have a chance to fix the problem. however, I can not find a Rogers stock ROM anywhere, so I am writing to ask if someone can help me about to fix the phone. Thanks very much.
Consider yourself LUCKY you don't have a brick right now. There is a reason there are different threads on here for each of the galaxy note 2 variants. There was talk about being able to flash roms of one variant on to another but I don't think much lead way was made. My suggestion to you is, 1. find a stock i317M rom and flash it using pc odin and then stick only to the thread corresponding to the variant you have to flash custom roms!

If you hunt around in the different variants development forums, you'll see that it's possible to flash roms from one variant to another. The catch is, if the variants have different radios (LTE/HSPA vs just HSPA), you'll lose all cell functions, which is exactly what happened to the OP. That's probably not a trade-off most people are willing to make, but I'm hopeful this is an easy issue for devs to overcome.

My rooting went horribly wrong.
I admit, I rushed it, was sleep deprived, and inpatient.
Right now, my phone looks very much like stock BUT
My issue is: I have no provider set on my phone. In other words, its as if my phone is unable to connect to Sprint's network.

When I try to update the PRL from system updates, below is the result...
I used some combination of the following files:
SuperOneClickv2.1.1-ShortFuse
S2Root_1.4.3_Release
Litening_Rom_v6-1.rar
acs-eb30-clockwork-epic-touch-4g-sep-20-4-00-pm.tar
EG30-Stock-OdexV2.zip
Stock-EG30.tar
Also tried calling sprint customer support...no help
At this point, what would be the fastest way to get my phone into a state in which it is once again recognized by Sprint
I don't think a prl update will populate the baseband version.
Have you tried starting over by flashing Stock-EG30.tar ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282420 ) and then doing a factory reset?
After that, update both your profile and prl.
By the way...
some of the files you listed appear to be for the i9100. Despite the similar naming convention, the Epic Touch (D710) is different from the i9100 and cannot directly re-use i9100 roms, kernels, etc.

I'm thinking you hosed your modem. The first three things you mentioned in the list you tried are, as was pointed out, for the International version. By flashing these you've put the wrong radio into your phone.
This thread has a link to a modem.bin download.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17617227
Search the Dev thread (sorry, on my phone so I can't come up with the link) on how to flash it. Once you do that, flash "stock kernel pulled from unrooted phone" (you'll see a link to it in the thread I just gave you). Then I think you'll be ok.
And, even though it's the same basic phone, ONLY flash stuff you find in this forum.
.....
Why are all these people flashing things from another phone? Thyself like the first rule of flashing. Flash the eg30 tar and then the eg30 modem.bin for your baseband. Thy should fix it. Good luck.

A ROOTED T-MOBILE T999
MOBILE ODIN PRO
THE I747UCDLK3 ATT STOCK PREROOTED ROM
AND THE UVLJA MODEM FOR T-MOBILE
Language Enabler by Wanam
How to
step 1: move the att rom to the internal sd card
step 2: open mobile odin, and download needed files from the app. then choose "open file" choose the rom tar.
step 3: press flash firmware then and all wipes
step 4: after it boots up you will have no imei, not to worry, open mobile odin and this time choose "OTA / Update zip" and choose our downloaded modem, then flash with no wipes
step 5: then after it boots up install Language Enabler, and press menu and choose save after granting root rights
step 6: enjoy
This is cool. But why not just flashing any att rom and just changed the build.prop from d2att to d2tmo? I have done it multiple times with no issues and flashed em out of the box

AT&T Galaxy S3 is the same 99% hardware than the T-Mobile Galaxy S3. Same as the Sprint and Verizon S3's.
Porting CDMA Galaxy s3 needs to do more work other wise you will have bugs but it will still boot.
But its been done several times and like I said I have flash several TW roms to my T-Mobile S3 out of the box with no problems at all.
i concur.... but thanks for sharing.
anytime
Besides bro, flashing a rom doesn't change ur modem, unless it's included in the rom zip and devs don't do that unless it's a firmware update for that particular carrier and comes with it. Most separate rom from modem even then..but thanks for trying to contribute to us all

Hi,
I just bought a Galaxy S3, the phone is brand new but I found out its rooted.
Now the thing is every aspect of the phone states as if it is S3 i9300 but when I installed CPU-z it showed the Ram as 1594 MB and the processor is MSM 8960. This means it is actually i747 but I don't know for sure, I am also not able to check for Software Updates as it states the software has been modified. I need to know it exact variant before I start tinkering with the phone.
Help Me!

They have taken the pains to change the sticker. But using Device Info I found that its has bootloader of I747MVLDLK4 still need some insights from veterans. What is the exact model of my device, and whether the Bootloader Unlock Guide, ROMs and Kernels in this thread are applicable to it.
Booting into recovery says SGH-i747M
Please someone help me, how to restore it as someplaces it has i9300 but actually it is i747M.
I'm on the same boat, bought a I9300 from Amazon and discovered that it's actually a SGH-I747M and can't update the ROM. Is there any way to put the standard 747M ROM in it?
What most likely happened is that they flashed a 9300 rom to the device or it could be a very good knock off clone which has been known to have fake hardware readings and device stickers. You could just flash any one of the canada based roms or ATT and that should bring you back to normal. I would find the Canada base stock firmware and flash that. Start from stock.
There's an exact thread here which discusses someone who bought the exact phone as you.
I believe he just flashed a canadian-compatible ROM. (Read the last post, and the thread in general)

Thanks zelendel. I genuinely feel that they have flashed 9300 ROM and its not a knock off. Still, would like to ask you whether the readings as such can be changed. Also, as it is i747M, are all i747 ROM's compatible with it and is there anything to take special note about.
So I finally installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 d2can recovery but when I was trying to backup it got stuck after completing the backup UPDATING THE PARTITIONS and it stayed there eventually I had to pull the battery.
Any insights?

Yes most all the i747 roms are compatable. Can these things be changed? I hate to say it but yes. There have been a few that have gotten some devices from China that all readings showed correctly but upon further investigation it was found to be a knock off and none of the specs were real. This comes from all the specs being defined in a simple to edit file for those that know where to look.

15-20mins, I was only backing up Boot and system files totalling around 900mb. Also the progress bar at the bottom was full.
Sadly, it seems my IMEI has been set to zero.
I can still make calls and text, but my data is on Edge network only.
I've been doing some searching and reading (by some I mean a lot) and I guess I'm getting a little confused in it all.
Would using ODIN to reset my phone to stock fix the IMEI?
I have the IMEI on a sticker on the phone, could TMobile reset the IMEI for me?
Thanks in advance.
Swap it if you have insurance. If not search xda for fix.

Yes Odin will fix the Issue. Please choose correct firmware to flash via Odin.
Thanks for the response.
Trying to confirm I get the RIGHT rom for my device.
Went to sammobile.com/firmwares/
Looking at all the options for SGH-T999, do I have to made basebands to what I have now (T999UVDLJA) which is dated Oct 2012, or is that something that gets "updated" if I apply the latest rom (March 2014)?
Depends on what you had before all these problems. You must choose that same version otherwise you may hard brick the phone.
*sigh*
And I suppose there's no way to know that? I don't have a back up or anything...
Is there anyway to determine?
Thanks for your help and direction thus far!
Oh Sure. There are other ways to determine. If possible post a photo of the download screen. Otherwise type out exactly what you see when the phone is in download mode.

I'm assuming that is the info you were looking for?
Yes that's what I needed. I suggest please use UVDMD5 Version of Root66 to flash via Odin.
Excellent.
So follow directions and get files from here?: http://www.androidayos.com/2013/05/...y-bean-without-binary-flash-counter-increase/
Well. Yes. I'd direct you to the Thread here under Android Development.
Yeap. The link I posted actually takes you back to the link you provided.
Both bookmarked.
I hope to do this tonight.
If I understand this correctly, this should flash my phone back to stock with my valid IMEI
Using this Route66 I will have root on the phone and should then be able to do a CM install if I choose?
Yes and yes.
If that is your desire, then while you are in Odin, flash a custom Recovery such as TWRP or CWM as well.

... I will have to research on how to do that too then.
First concern is getting the IMEI back so that I can actually USE the phone with data -- regardless if it's CM or stock OS.
As the UVDMD5 will have correct modem, hopefully that will restore IMEI. Otherwise we may have to see what happens.
hmmm sort of seems to have worked... stuck at the "SAMSUNG" screen though.
Reading other links says I should have cleared cache before doing?
Hmmm cleared cache.
Did factory reset.
Still stuck at pulsating "SAMSUNG" logo...
Ok got into phone... ugh is stock ROM just painful. Who designs these things?!?!
Sadly, IMEI is still set at 0
this doesn't seem to have worked

ARGGGHHHH Are you serious? Googling now, but this looks much more complicated compares to Odin
Can't TMobile just restore the IMEI if I take it to one of their stores?
Probably this is a common issue, and you may want to kill me after opening a new thread for this. I'm so sorry, at the moment I'm very worried because my phone suddenly lost network services and I have no idea how to deal with these things, I'm really bad at flashing and such thing.
Problem is that after a year and half since I bought my Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100, suddenly today this issue appeared.
The device has root access (not performed by me) with Kingo SuperUser/SuperSU. Once I realized it was rooted, I googled and proceeded to perform a factory reset (restarted device with power + volume up + home buttons, which leaded me to android system recovery 3e), which didn't help at all.
If I dial *#06# the IMEI it shows 004999010640000 / 01 but the one I see under the battery slot is (2014) IMEI: 359xxx/05/853xxx/4 (I don't know if this data is relevant, just trying to help).
I found this thread in this forum, which seems to be the same problem I'm facing right now, but I don't have any backup of those files, plus I don't know how to flash this specific phone :crying:
I'll really appreciate any kind of help you can provide me to fix my phone.
Here's a screenshot of the device info (it's in spanish but some names are easily understandable)

Thanks for the advice!
I haven't tried anything but a hard reset. I don't know how to flash a phone, and I'm pretty sure I can screw it up if I try xD
I just heard about sammobile.com, but I don't know how to proceed even on that website.
Anyway, I hope there's something I can try before making that kind of "flashing"
If the imei doesn't get restored after flashing the latest stock ROM from Sammobile.com, you would need to try other methods to fix there imei problem.
Common issue... More than you imagine. Happens to me all the time. But I have one solution in my case Wich is just flash the EFS partition in my previous nandroid backup, but since to be you only were rooted and not custom recovery, I guess you don't have a nandroid backup. Only solution here is flash thru Odin and all will be good.
