By the "telus variant", do you happen to mean the SGH-T989D? (check the label under your battery for model number)
If the device model is indeed the SGH-T989D, you should to to that device forum, which is located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329.
This post is currently in the forum for the GT-I9100, which is a different phone than the SGH-T989D.

Man just do a factory reset... Wipe data and you should be good to go

R u sure this would fix it, they copy the efs folder but its just 80kb also there is no nv_data.bin in anywhere of that folder .
should they copy it as a tar file or can just copying the folder normally work?
if this can be fix even by remote access over team viewer , let me know who can do it and the cost...

wrong phone type

I installed a rom, then found out it was bad, and unrooted the wrong model. so now i have a phone with the wrong model number. i need it to be samsung galaxy s2 at&t and right now its Samsung I9100. i guess i have to root, and install the original rom?
The i9100 is the sgs2 if you have gsm working or no bugs there is no need to reflash

[Q] Model Number Question

I have an AT&T Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (SGH-I727) ...I flashed the CM10 Superheavy 5.0 ROM, but I did the Hercules (T989) by accident. Now my model number is (T989). I tried to flash the stock .tar file for I727, but I just kept getting the AT&T boot screen looping. How can I go back to I727 so I can reflash the correct CM10 ROM?
Lol very funny be careful next time try holding the volume up and power to go to twrp if u have

[Q] Soft Bricked my Galaxy S3

Dear all,
I think I have soft bricked my S3. I had stock Hong Kong 4.0.4 installed but for quite a long time the 4.1.1 update was not made available for Hong Kong region. So I flashed stock rom Pakistan 4.1.1. Afterwards when the Hong Kong 4.1.1 was released, I flashed again to Hong Kong from Pakistan. I have done flashing my S3 and Galaxy Note many time without any problem but now, my S3 is giving me problems. There was some problem with the hong Kong rom (android system sometimes stucked) so i flashed back to Pakistan but ever since, neither of these ROMs are working anymore. When I complete the flashing process, and the phone restarts, it stucks on the Samsung logo. I tried to flash custom rom like Cyanogen and MIUI and they work fine but not the stock roms. Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks

Im in quite the pickle.

So basically I updated my galaxy s2 t989 to jellybean so I would get the upgraded radio so I could install custom roms. After upgrading through Samsung kies I tried again and got stuck in a collaterals recovery boot loop. I restored to a previous backup before I upgraded but the problem is I am back on 4.0.4 but It kept the 4.1.2 radio. So now kies says my firmware is not compatible to upgrade. Is this common or am I totally screwed?

Although I do not personally own an S2 the common method is finding a radio version at 4.0.4 and flashing that. Finding it will be the difficult part. Ask around and see if one of your buddies (XDA is your buddy ) has a copy that they can lend you.

So would I just flash it through Odin?

Also do you know if that is why my phone isn't getting recognized by Kies?

As I said. I don't own any Samsung devices so I can't help you there. Basic andoiud help is finding a raido and flashing it through a recovery, CWM or otherwise.
