[Q] Need help with GNote2 SGH-T889. NULL IMEI / No Service

To start off with, I'm a complete beginner on rooting/flashing and I didn't even cause the problem in the first place, but I may have a better understanding. So a friend was trying to downgrade his phone to 4.1.1 so it could be unlocked through the service menu. I'm not completely sure what files were used but it did downgrade to 4.1.1 but it now says no service and the IMEI says NULL. Please help!!
Also, it's not the "not registered to network" error I have seen mostly while i was trying to search.
Thank you

[Q] Galaxy Grand Duos GT-I9082 CLONE (MT6572 Chipset)

Hey guys, I have here a cloned Samsung galaxy grand duos GT-I9082 which is owned by my neice and it comes with MT6572 Chipset and a 1GB of RAM. So the problem is it was boot looped due to change of dpi and the worst is, she used the root function in MTK Droid tools though it is already rooted via framaroot and I think what she does really messed up the device. Now I can't access the recovery (through pressing both volume down + power) though it's in chinese language before. When I tried to boot it normally, it just opens the backlight for 10 seconds then turns off then turns on again. When I pressed the volume up + power, "Android System Recovery <3e>" pops out, which is strange co'z it wasn't there before (according to my neice). The only way adb detects the phone is when I choose "apply update using ADB" and there it was detected as a sideload. Lastly, when I do a normal boot while connected to a pc, in device manager, an "MT65XX Preloader" driver pops out (meaning it is detected) before the device restarts again.
So, does this phone still have a chance to be fixed? I feel it still have a little chance, but I don't know anymore where to find any solution to this problem. Hope you guys help me regarding this issue. God bless!

up up up up
im also having the same problem.
does anyone know what to do?
THANKS

If you really want to you can reinstall the official firmware. Use this link
http://www.needrom.com/download/gt-i9082-mt6572/

I'm brick my phone month before.
Suggestion from upper post not work for me.
Do you have another suggestion - rom?
CU

UPDATE: I've found a working ROM for my phone in 4shared. But it does not detect the inserted sim cards because it doesn't come up with "secro.img" file. You might try flashing this ROM here: (kindly remove spaces on the link as XDA prohibits posting of links with at least 10 posts.)

thank you so much for your reply ill try it now hope it works. update you soon with my progress.

it worked but still cant find a way to fix the sim problem
thanks

I'm glad that it also works on your device. And finally I've found a workaround for this undetected SIM cards problem. All you have to do is to enter your IMEI inside the engineer mode. So first, download "MTK engineer mode" in play store then in the app, choose "MTK settings" and then tap "GPRS" then enter your IMEI for SIM 1 (if you only have 1 IMEI, you can both enter the same IMEI for SIM 2. DO NOT INCLUDE SPECIAL CHARACTERS). After typing your IMEI, tap "Write IMEI". Do the same procedure for SIM 2. Once you're done, close the app then restart. Hope this works for you.

not works...no imei yet

Sorry to hear that. But would you please describe the events or errors you have encountered? Maybe I can help you out even more then.
By the way, I just want to ask if you still have your "secro.img" back up before? You might try to flash it on your device then do the instructions I've posted before. Good luck!

hi bro, please give step by step process for my samsung galaxy grand duos i9082.

I already discussed before on how to change IMEI sir, just re-read the post #8.

i have bricked my device i9082 MT6572 clone, same with yours right? most probably, the ROM you flashed was a little bit incompatible due to its scatter file. i've detected the problem and you had not included the secro.img which is essential for the IMEI, though flashtool can't include it coz the address is not correct.. after hard works, i've got to have a working ROM but i've not uploaded it yet. i'm gonna upload it soon so please, stay tuned

WE waiting for you guy

It's not public.
And could you please provide me with your board ID ? (The clone phone's motherboard ID is written on it, you have to take the phone apart to get it) if it's not much to ask
I have a I9082 MT6572 clone with board ID: W05-MB-V2.0 , the device is infected with Timeservice & Monkey test and several other malware that I don't know how to get rid of except with a fresh flash.
Thanks in advance!

i did the result did not change , if i flash custom rom can i fix network eg pixel experience rom ?

How long was it working on Eu rom before it gave you a problem? Maybe you temporarily sim unlocked the phone for 30 days and that ran out?
OnePlus says you must go through tmobile to get it unlocked. Tmobile does need it on their network for a day or so to be able to unlock it. (They tried to do mine manually but there was no data for my phone and there is an exchange that takes place on their server so it has to be online).

Looks like the efs may be somewhat corrupt. Hope you backed up modemst1/modemst2 partitions like the conversion thread suggested you do. You'll want to flash these both back on and then problems should be resolved. You cannot use someone else's partitions, has to be yours.
MSM'ing will not help this situation. Need to unlock permanently using t-mobile's unlock in original ROM after you've restored those partitions. It blows an efuse when it does this, no custom rom can be used as a workaround.

I also had the same problem on OP9. It happened after playing with modemst partition.

unfortunately i tried that too. this problem happened because i deleted modemst1 and modemst2 file in eu rom. I guess the tmo unlock application cannot read the phone's information so the unlock is refusing to bind.
