I'm having the same problem now. Need help I have no data!

not that I will have an answer or solution, but others who might would likely want a bit more information, like:
are you on a custom ROM, or stock? which version of stock? or did you use that leak?
if custom, how did you get there? (ie: method used to flash/odin, stock recovery/twrp)
if you're just rooted stock, how do you achieve that? which method for rooting, or was it a rooted rom/oneclick/etc?)
did you do anything just previous to the problem? or "out of the blue"? (it is also vaguely possible it Is a network problem on Sprints end...)
if you're going back to BustBuy, are you unrooted now? do you know how to get back to unrooted? (they may not honor your warr if you are)
the more info you give us, the more likely we will have advice. just saying.

You might want to try resetting sprint login data by ##72786# to see if it helps.

Thank you for the quick response but I finally figured it out. I just reinstalled stock Rom and started fresh.

how exactly did you reinstall stock? i just got this problem after a reboot. i was on viperboy's stock K8 and just did a reboot and found my phone no longer has any network. i had twrp installed, the multi window mod, and the reboot option mod prior to this. i odined back to viperboy's stock J1 and had no resolution. i then went on to odin back to viperboy's stock JC, still nothing. i tried doing a restore from twrp off of J1, JC, and K8. after i reset everything and went back to stock i took the phone into sprint who had no way to fix it and could only offer to order me a refurbished replacement unit for whatever the price was. i have insurance from a third party but more then anything i need to know what exactly caused this and how to repair it. i noticed enough posts about this particular issue that i am hesitant to even think about rooting my next phone. when i do finally get a new one off insurance i of course would like to prevent this issue. however, using insurance after a month of owing my phone for this sort of issue really was not why i got the insurance.

thanks again, that solved my problem. i still wonder what in the world had my phone acting up in the first place. i believe i was one of the only people who had this just happen on a reboot without moving roms.

Thank you all for this thread. I just recovered from no mobile network as I accidentally flashed the wrong ROM. :good:
The process I had a failed flash that scared the @)*$& out of me. But i believe it flashed the modem.bin before it failed.
Then i flashed CWM again and all was good.

[Q] Help... MEID, BASEBAND version, etc unknown.

I have a Galaxy Note 2 on the sprint network. Yesterday someone sent me a text and i tried to sent them a text back but my phone didn't have a signal. It reset itself a bunch of times. It stopped resetting and now there is no signal to the tower. I looked on my phone and Baseband version, network, mobile network type say unknown. service state is out of service, username is unavailable. mobile network state is disconnected, my phone number is unknown, min unknown, prl version unknown, meid unknown, imei unknown, iccid unknown. device status modified.
I rooted my phone when i first got it with the method that doesn't make your flash counter go up. I had super user installed and had the OTA survival mode checked and did the OTA update for multiwindow and then lost root. This wasn't a big deal to me so I just left it alone, everything worked. Its been a couple of months and then this happened. I reflashed a stock rom on the phone and that didn't fix anything. I rooted it with the Samsung Note 2 toolkit and that went well. But it somehow got stuck on the boot screen again after a while so i just reflashed to stock.
I downloaded QPST and entered my IMEI into the nv line 550 and clicked the write NV block and returned an error. Im stuck. I have insurance and I've only had the phone a couple of months. What the heck happened? Was it somekind of wipe? I have been working on this all day and I'm going to bed now, but can someone help me out?

I would not have been so quick to start messing with qpst.In most cases where ive seen this the imei and related numbers were fine and it was a system screw up. That said,This happened to me recently and even odin wouldnt fix it. I ran THIS and it brought me back so I would try that first.

thanks. I am downloading that now and will try it and let you know. I didn't want to start messing with qpst but i saw a tutorial that you can enter your imei back into your phone with it. i got my numbers off the box and went to work. but qpst would not write the values into my phone.
when i plug the usb into the phone a flag pops up in windows and says hardware id is missing as well.

i went to the link. i downloaded the file. it was a zip file so i put it on an sdcard and slapped it in my phone. i used the vol up, home key, and pwr key and then i used the update from zip file on external storage. it did some stuff and rebooted. i checked my flash counter and it went up and said i was running custom, custom.
i didn't see any instructions with your post that you linked and I probably didn't use that file the way it was supposed to be used. how exactly do you use it? and when i turned my phone on it still said baseband unknown.
thanks again for helping me with this.

Do you have Root Explorer? If baseband is showing unknown makes me wonder if build.prop is there and complete...?

It needed flashed in a custom recovery. Did u use twrp or cwm to flash it? If so, you did it right. Is it only the baseband thats unknown or everything still? Did you try a ##72786# dialer code reset?

I don't have root explorer on here right now because I was trying to return the phone back to stock for a return to the sprint store.
I used the stock rom that you download from the samsung note 2 tool kit. how do i check what your talking about?

everything is still unknown.
when i dial ##72786# it goes to a meny labeled SCRTN but is blank with no options.
at this point I used triangle away and flashed the stock rom on my phone, it keeps randomly resetting. in the setttings it still has baseband unknown. i did the ota update and the build number is JROO3C.L900VPALJC
under status, everything is unknown and at the botton it says device modified.
when i put it into download mode right now it says custum binary: no ; current binary: samsung official; system status: custom
this started when the phone just started resetting a bunch after my buddy texted me and then it didn't have service and all the values were wiped, i just want to take it back to sprint because ive only had it for a couple of months. will the above values be ok for a trip to the sprint store?

i think i have a corrupted EFS. can anyone help?

I had this happen to me when I first got the phone and rooted. Scariest first day of ownership thought I was going to have to go in to sprint. Thankfully I flashed the full stock tar and my phone came back to life. Maybe you should try flashing it and see how it turns out for you.

as it is, does the spring store take your phone back if system status is custom and device says modified?
b.) if i can fix it, it would be better than taking it back. everything on the phone still works, but it obviously cant see a cell phone tower or make calls. data on wifi only type deal.
thanks for any help...

I'm not familiar with that EFS issue since I've never read about it. However I would try that tar I posted as a last resort since the stock zip didn't do anything for you. The issue you're describing is the exact same thing that happened to me and that tar brought me back. And about being custom/modified it all depends on the Sprint Rep you get. Some are cool about it some are not.

flashed the sextape back to stock rom and it didn't work. i think my efs is corrupted- gunna take something more than flashing- like editing some files to put my meid and other info and pushing it back to my phone.

Update-
my phone is screwed. i got the MSL and put it in my phone and nothing happens. i have to take it back and get a new one.even though all the hardware works, just cant program the info back in the phone for meid, baseband, username, icc id, etc. etc. so no voice calls.
the bummer is that this all happened randomly. i wasn't messing with my phone at all and it was running great then it reset a bunch of times and then wiped everything. i don't know if it would have helped, but i highly reccomend everyone backing up their EFS. because you never know when this will happen to you.
take care, thanks for the help everyone.

[Q] Tmo T999 No 4G

Hello,
Obviously from my posts I'm new posting, however, I've been reading the forums for a while now and have been a huge fan at the massive support of devs and other helpful people. My question, and I've tried searching hi and lo on this site and others to get an answer:
I rooted my phone about 2 months ago and kept ROM, kernel, etc. stock until about 1 month ago when I flashed CM 10.1. Everything was awesome, loved the layout and the customization of the ROM. About 2 weeks ago, I lost 4G/H+ coverage, and voice service was sometimes spottier than usual. Wifi was and is still fine, but anytime I left and wifi network, I was immediately given EDGE speeds. I ran speedtest.net and the display is accurate.
I tried searching a couple of sites and I read that flashing a different ROM could fix the issue. I flashed Wicked which again was a great layout, but didn't fix the 4G issue. Lastly, today I followed an unroot thread and unrooted my phone. I didn't reset my counter with triangle away because I didn't think that was an issue in the lack of 4G. And I didn't want to dig myself any deeper on possibly bricking my phone. So now, my phone is stock (minus the counter) with ROM, kernel, and recovery. Any tips or suggestions?
Something to note: When I tried flashing CM10.1 the very first time, I received an error 7 message on CWM recovery. After reading a couple of posts on here, it looked like the workaround was to remove the first line of code on the updater-script file in the zip. Doing so made the ROM flash without any hiccups. Or were there?
Again thanks in advance for taking the time to read my post.

Look under imei, is it still there or is it 0.

Its not really bad, but its not great. It means you lost your imei, it just happens randomly when flashing a ROM (no one knows why, it just rarely happens). Its not the ROMs fault, it just happens.
If you haven't made a backup of your imei, then you'll have to restore/inject the imei so that you can use 4g again. I'll have to look for the threads that explain how to do that and I'll post them for you.

I wouldn't worry bout it. Unless you get lucky it can take a lot of searching and piecing info together to find all that's needed. Imei restoration can still be found, but a lot isn't too clear. Data restore after imei restoration is not so easy.
Also, one or two of the important threads are gone. If you ever need help with this issue, you can just pm me.

Hey Doc, does everything in the video I posted restore 4g or does it just restore the imei? If it doesn't restore 4g, could you please post here or pm what steps are needed to get 4g going again?
I would just like to have a copy of everything just in case something goes wrong with my imei backup, If I end up losing my imei.

Awesome! Glad you got it working again.
Next thing is to create s n on-device backup of your nv data. This should only need to be done once, as you can't delete or overwrite it with common methods. It is also preventative so you shouldn't ever see this issue again.
Two methods
1. Install Andromizer and backup nv data
2. Install and open Terminal Emulator and enter this:
su
reboot nvbackup
That's it. Your phone will reboot and create the back up. If you do ever need to restore just enter this:
su
reboot nvrestore
Note: you cannot make copies of this as its stored across several partitions that are not easily accessible.

What were the "couple more things"? My IMEI was wiped when I installed CWM and I had no signal showing at all. I have restored my IMEI and it now connects to Edge but it does not connect to 4G as it did. My wife's phone still gets a good 4G connection so I think it is the phone. I have tried wiping it, installing Cyanogen and have now reverted to Samsung factory UVDMD5. Everything about the phone seems to work great except it has no 4G. Tried changing APN type and forcing WCDMA -- no luck
Thanks!

Low 2g and 3g but no 4g
I also can never get 4G in the metro. Even right next to somebody with the exact same phone and same T-mobile service who gets it fine.. I had flashed Synergy ROM and now S3Rx (stock kernel) but no improvement. My IMEI is valid, the Mobile Network type is shown as: GPRS:1. It shows the APN as T-Mobile USA (epc.tmobile.com). Baseband version is: T999UVDMD5.
I don't know anything else to check. Sure would like some ideas.

Test with someone else's SIM card. Or call T-Mobile as it sounds like it may be an account issue. Odin back to stock. If it still continues, it could also be hardware.

Hello Doc, I tried to pm you, but never received a reply, maybe my message is blocked.
I hope you can help me find cure for my phone!
After regular update of CM 10.2. using CWM my phone stopped connecting to 3g and 4g, I checked with T-Mobile and no problems on their end. I thought it was a failed upgrade reinstalled CM 10.2, didn't help. Then I totally reformatted Internal Storage and Installed LiquidSmooth 2.3.7, same thing, only EDGE data. Then I thought maybe I have to unroot and go back to Stock, and this time unrooted, upgraded baseband to the latest version, then installed Stock JB 4.3 but it didn't fix my problem. Then I came across this info about missing IMEIs, and there it was IMEI was showing Unknown at one point and now it is showing 0. I tried to follow some guides about nv_data.bin but my EFS folder doesn't seem to contain that file, it actually doesn't have more than that when compared to other user's screenshots.
At this point I rooted my phone again using TWRP with SU and De-knox and installed CM 10.2.0. Still EDGE only and IMEI showing 0.
Please, help! I can email screenshot of About Phone Status Page and EFS folder if you need.
Thanks!

Doc,
I just purchased a T999 on eBay with this same problem. When I got the phone, it had CM installed on it and had no IMEI (IMEI=0). I put it back to stock 4.1.2, still no IMEI. I did IMEI repair using Z3X box which worked, now IMEI is normal. Problem is that it always stays on EDGE network. I'm sure this is something to to with the phone and not something else. I have a couple of other T999's available to use to test SIM card, location, etc. and all other T999's I've tried work just fine. Only this one that I had to restore IMEI.
Can you please give me some advice?

[Q] huge problem, need help

this morning I got unfourtunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped and cannot get the phone to boot without constantly hitting the "OK"
I see there is no signal, and can see in the phone information that the radio is turned off. I have an app that used to get to the screen but now it hangs due to the phone has stopped issue.
Is there any way I can turn the radio on by using some code with the dialer pad?
I have tried recovering 3 other nand backups, but none work. all have the same result.
Thanks for any help someone might be able to give me!
It is a rooted samsung galaxy s4 M919 from t-mobile

is it stock rooted or what ROM are you running ?what kernel? what settings ? what mods? we need some detail sir but for starters if you can get it to boot try *#2263# and if its not set to automatic try clicking your options auto is the default setting

I see there is no signal, and can see in the phone information that the radio is turned off. I have an app that used to get to the screen but now it hangs due to the phone has stopped issue.
Is there any way I can turn the radio on by using some code with the dialer pad?
I have tried recovering 3 other nand backups, but none work. all have the same result.
Thanks for any help someone might be able to give me!
Remove your sd card sim card and battery let set 10 minutes put back in see if the message is still present if so you might need a new sim card.

I have tried both of the above suggestions and no joy!
I have 2 nandroid backups that were done when the phone was working fine, and recovering either one has the very same symptoms.
I'm not sure that all the phone is backed up or restored in entirety, unless there it a hardware fault in this phone. It's 31 days old today..... :<(
if anyone else has any ideas, I'm all ears!
Thanks!

Might just be a lemon. I would just flash back to stock then take the phone and get a replacement.

You still have given us no details on what you are running, stock, rooted, touchwiz, aosp. Do you know how to Odin back to stock? Sounds to me what happens when you flash a modem not meant for the phone.

Odin back to stock I would think should alleviate your problem. I flashed an international modem when I was running omega rom and got flash happy when I was drunk. Had the exact same problem you are describing odin to stock worked for me

Yo Tyler!
I was not drunk nor did I flash anything, it was going fine and suddenly, poof!,,,,,
Anyway, I tried your suggestion and IT WORKED! I also saw, (I don't know how/why) all my apps being installed automatically!
Well, almost all anyway. I had to install only maybe 3 apps, and that was all. Even my keyboard configuration that I made lots of cosmetic changes to- via the apps setup, was like I had set it up as... Weird, but great for me!
Thanks for your suggestion. It's quite odd, as one of the nandroid backups was made using the exact rom image that I used to Odin back to stock....
Nevertheless, as the Hawaiians say, MAHALO NUI LOA! Tyler No Ka OI (Tyler is the best)
Aloha...

Glad I could help. The modem isn't in your back up that's why back ups won't fix this problem. As for apps, it's from syncing your Google account. Aloha

If you chose to have Google back up and restore your apps, it will do just that.

Lost EFS Folder - No Signal nightmare

Okay tried to flash DN3 last night. Everything went find and had the no wifi error. It all went downhill from there. When installing DN3 there is a back up EFS folder. I selected to back that folder up. I tried to fix the Wifi problem with Devil Kernel. Got samsung logo lock up (waited for an hour). Couldn't seem to get into recovery anymore, but download mode still worked, phew!
Got the stock firmware for my device (Bell GN2 i317m). Flashed just fine, but when the phone booted, wifi worked and now I have no network. Says insert sim card when trying to select mobile networks. Tried my sim in a friends phone, worked no problem at all. okay next step. Root it with CF root. Odin 3.09 locks up when writing cache. Now phone one boot. Go to Kies and use firmware upgrade too. Works no problem. Back to root with Odin 3.07. Locks up in the exact same spot as 3.09. Tried 1.85 same problem. I realize my EFS folder is likely pooched, but everything I have read seems to require root, which I cannot seem to get anymore.
What would your next step be, before throwing it out the window? Now my stupid reset counter has Knox warrarenty failed 1 next to it and like 30 (yes 30) on my counter.
PS I have been flashing phones forever. HTC Magic, Xperia X10, Nexus S, Galaxy S2 and Note 2. I have never run into an issue like this one!

Still stuck. I have tried everything under the sun. I am at a total loss on what to do. I believe its from the whole knox bootloader downgrade. I am able to gain root and have SU block knox, but my EFS folder is empty. I have reset via KIES and Odin multiple times. I am looking for someone elses hel as I have done so much to try and fix this I am now confused on all the stuff I have tried!
Unknown IMEI
Unknown Baseband
Insert Sim etc
It is the same for every flash.
Desperate for help!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have also tried tha about 10x. It works fine, but my EFS folder is always completely empty afterwards.
Anyone else?

EFS may still be there...but is not getting mounted properly because the path has been corrupted...
Sadly...I do not have an EFS .tar file that can path restore...but I know it exists on this site...and have seen it before...
Search for that information and you will likely find it...
We also have several older threads of users who fixed the EFS folder once it got deleted...
Worst case....send it for a JTAG service to mobiletechvideos.com
They can rebuild the EFS and restore the IMEI from your info under the battery...
Very sorry I can't offer more....g
