Hi,
So I got my new Galaxy Note 3 from T-Mobile yesterday, and I was just playing with it and stumbled on to 'software upgrade' section and just gave a shot even though I know there is no update out yet. But it said 'Your device has been modified, not available for software upgrade'. It is very odd because I literally didn't do any modification (i.e. rooting or flashing). All I did was change some background picture and add some SNS accounts. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Thanks!
Call tmoble and say 'WTF!'

Boot into boot loader and see if Knox was tripped.

Ok haha so It turns out that the problem was sd card. Apparently if you have sd card in the note 3 it thinks the device status is "costum". But when I took sd card out and rebooted, the status went back to official and when I tested software update it just said my device is up to date. So just FYI, if anyone is experiencing same issue.
Mine says that the device is up to date.
thanks for the info, i was about to call tmobile to say WTF !, this is my 2nd Note 3, 1st one after i installing my story album (what ever its called ) my note 3 UI started to crash all the time, even after a factory reset, so i took it down to tmobile and they replaced me with a new one.:cyclops:

Ok guys and gals, this is the deal, i rooted my Note 2 GT-N7100 via Odin around 2 weeks ago, no issue, good stuff, infact the only reason i rooted was for Avast firewall and anti-theft options that come with avast as this was very useful with my last pnone, nexus...
anyhow it seened in the mean-time i was the last to recieve android 4.1.2 here in the uk, now im not useully impatiant, but curiosity got me and so via odin installed 4.1.2, though this was fine onece done it started up with the three logo, the network my sim is on, but the pnone was stock to all networks, so i believe.
A few days later still all is good, i was playing around with some apps such as Go launcher and others as Coldfustions android 3d ui tutorial had suggested on you tube, still no problems, just a little laggy, so i deleted caches as thought this my hep from the recent flash to 4.1.2 a week or so ago, well thats when things whent bad, very bad, cache deleted and pnone switched off and never came back on, just a red light next to the front facing camra, now, my pnone was clearly rooted with custom binary dowload @ 2, but strangly the system status kept switching to official to custom, looks bad right, what should i do...? many thanks ahead...:good:
Sds issue.
Can you tell the exact name of the file you flashed ?

Sad to know that.... but have you try to boot it into recovery or download mode? Try to do it fast after you plug in your battery. It might work... Do let us know the update. Thanks
Update...
...Well i took it into the city to a local phone tech who will forward it to a samsung tech who doesn't mind a rooted phone, will cost £20 and said 100% fix:laugh: He suggested that it could be related to the s3 problems and had seen a rise in Feb in this strange activity will be around a week. I haven't tried the battery in/out as suggested, will consider in the future.
The file was from sammobile/hotfile (N7100XXDLL4_N7100H3GDLL2_N7100NEDLK1_HOME.tar.md5) will keep you all posted... thanks:good:
Kk you flashed a sds bugged rom .
You should have clarified if it could be booted or not.
Anyways I just wanted to clarify that this didn't happen due to rooting.

...Once flashed to 4.1.2 it ran about a week, then when cleared caches it died? So to clarify it was a bugged rom or the actual flash/download that was the problem?... infact I remember in odin on pc the usb cable connection icon should be green for good to go, it was yellow as I could not find the solution as to why and still went ahead and flashed, ran like around a week and then died, maybe it was that, im still learning, a hard lessen to learn... im hoping ill get it back by the end of the week still in one piece...
Can you tell the whole name of the file you flashed?

Yeah it is 4.1.2 but does not contain sds patches.

Ok, not to sure what that means entirely, but why not?
okay so I just performed the OTA update for my note 2 to version 4.1.2 and now I have absolutely NO cell phone reception whatsoever and gives me a "no network" label and says emergency calls only. I have downloaded the stock rogers 4.1.1 rom as well as the stock 4.1.2 rom and reflashed my note 2 with odin multiple times to no avail. during the update to 4.1.2 via OTA was flawless, no errors or anything, but after the update, my phone became completely useless!! Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can resolve this? I am in desperate need of help as I currently do not have a phone to use

It's funny because my phone, AT&T, has recently been doing the same thing. It jumps from 4G to G then 3G then completely no signal. I'll wake my phone and there are no bars but if I keep it awake and use it for a bit then the signal comes back but very very faint.
Check your apn settings. If they're non existent then jet Google them. Should take 30 seconds to find

What is showing under settings about device? Is your baseband showing unknown or check if you still have your imei by typing *#06# try flashing Rogers modem.
same thing was happening to me (although not after the update, as I was flashing cleanROM & skynote) Keep in mind though that I was using those ROMs for quite a while before this started happening to me.
I was never able to fix it, so I flashed it back to stock,and took it to an AT&T store. The guy there switched out my sim and the signal came back immediately. However, I walked out of the store, and within 5 minutes, I was getting absolutely no service. I turned around and went back to the store, and they are doing a warranty exchange on the phone for me.
replacement phone should be here tomorrow. I also got a $100 credit on my next bill because it has been like this for a few weeks.
To the op, if your phone is stock I would take it to your carrier and get it sorted out.

sounds like a missing apn to me. You could do a simple search on google or xda to get the correct apn for your phone & carrier. Input the info in and that should do it. Otherwise, bring it to the store and have them do it for you, but make sure you didn't mod your phone.

Same exact thing happened to me. Got a nexus 4 while my note 2 was in repair. Got it back and was having the same problem. I went to the ATT store and they gave me a new sim card..worked in the store...walked out and 5 minutes later no signal. I really don't know what to do at this point. I had flashed with Cleanrom and Paranoid but when this phone came back they replaced the mainboard so everything is stock again. Really weird. I think I might say see you later to ATT.
Any other ideas please comment.
Hey guys, I restarted my phone today and have no service. Checked imei with att rep and shows unknown. Took the battery out and all that and still shows unknown and no service. It is not rooted, nothing is changed. Just stock phone I've been using since Monday.
Any ideas?
Edit: Okay so after talking to the rep he was no help. Telling my SIM card is the issue. I did a factory reset and I'm working again.

Whoa, I haven't had the Note 5 for almost two years now, so I'm not sure of how much help I can be. What does your current baseband and IMEI field show? Do they show as Unknown?
Hello, I bought a Tmobile Note 3 this morning to use with my AT&T sim/account.Everything works except the WIFI toggle stays slid to the ON side but it never actually comes on.Is this a common thing due to my cross simming or is it particular to this phone? Thanks! I searched for most of the morning for an answer with no luck.
EDIT* Is there a radio I could flash?
Is the bootloader locked down like the AT&T N3 was??
I don't think your Sim card has anything to do with the wifi. If you haven't done a master reset I would do that.
Once you're reset, see if the wifi is working.

A few weeks after rooting with cf-autoroot I started getting a notification that my phones sim card wasn't being detected, and it prompts me to reboot. Running stock root with twrp recovery. If i dont reboot it just stays in the notification bar. If i do reboot it goes away for the time being. I still have service and phone still works as far as i can tell but something must be wrong. Some days it will happen 5 times sometimes it wont happen for a week but lately its happening a lot. Anyone having the same problem? Or does anyone know of a fix? Any help would be appreciated i haven't been able to find much on it.

Same problem here. Has been happening for quite a while. Haven't had the time to research though. However yesterday it happened while I was on a call and dropped the call. So, yeah, a problem for sure.
not enough information about the device to help.
what else do you need to know? I have the sprint version(QUALCOMM) Samsung galaxy note 4 running stock 4.4 rooted with TWRP recovery
Happens randomly to me too
Im stock not rooted and have that issue. Happens usually when im in the out skirts if a wifi network and it keeps comnecting and disconnecting

I did yes. ??
Update to the newest version of galaxy tools it reduces significantly. You can find it in the themed roms section in the Note 4 forum. When I updated I had almost no lost sim card errors. Now when I updated to lollipop I have no Sim Card errors but I do miss using exposed.
What does Galaxy Tools have to do with it?

Galaxy Tools does have settings that affect the sim card.

Galaxy Tools does have settings for the Sim Card you know. All I know that when I updated my Galaxy tools to the latest 3.0.8 version my problems went away. I am did not make the program so I am not going to tell you something I know nothing about. Just give it a try and see if it works what do you have to lose?
It's been happening to me the past couple days randomly. Just out of nowhere ever since the first time. Never did this before a couple days ago since I had the phone from launch day. Been on Xnote rc2 with AEL 7.2 kernel.
Edit: I just updated to newest galaxy tools, I'll report back on a day or 2. Strange though that it could be that because nothing has changed at all on my phone in weeks, and for this to just start out of nowhere.
Seems fine so far, updated galaxy tools to newest, and pressed unlocked SIM, whatever that does. I'll report back again if I get the SIM notification
Did you guys try new sim cards?
Please reply back with your results.

I did. Everything is fine so far. I updated to newest galaxy tools. I had pressed the SIM unlock button to see what happens. I don't even know what that did, but I haven't had no SIM detected again.
Here is the thread for galaxy tools. I updated to newest. Also the name of the app changes to idoneapps.

I am glad you had an open mind unlike some closed minded people. Sometimes you just have to experiment and find out what you added to fix your problems. Galaxy tool does unlock the Sim Card for international travel and when I updated my updated my phone to the latest 4.4.4 ROM I started having problems. So figured maybe it might have been the Galaxy tools. So I tried updating it and I have not had any no Sim card problems for almost a month now.
settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks......set Network Mode to Automatic......this is what stopped mine from doing that sim card error over and over

Tried this. Thought it might have worked but only made it about 1 day before the error reappeared.
Edit: i have also gotten a new sim and tried galaxy tools (though I'm not exactly sure what settings i was supposed to mess with). Still get the error.
My Fix
Same problem with the sim card. I'm not rooted and have not used galaxy tools. I opened up the back and re-seated the SIM card (took it all the way out and put in back in) and for the heck of it the SD as well. I haven't seen the problem yet (going on 2 weeks).
