[Q] Please Help. RED X on my service bars - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I really need some help. I have used the stock NAB from Frezza to upgrade from MJ4 on my SMN900P. I flashed it step by step added CF root set by set. I also flashed TWRP set by set. But now i have a phone that will not get the mobile connection. I have a red X on my signal bars. I don't know what to do but i have been looking and looking. I wonder if some how the modem got messed up. If so do you think i can flash the NAB modem to the phone and restore the service.

I have the phone flashed to Red Pocket since Pre-Payd Wireless was shut down
I cant update my prl and profile because as you might see from the Screeshot I still have the activation check and if i try to update either it only takes me to the activation thing

Have you tried reflashing the tar through Odin? I would download a new copy first. You may have had a corrupt download the first time around. This is just a guess but you never know. It can't hurt to try. The worst thing that could happen is you will have to root and flash TWRP again.

I did not originally read this part. This may be your problem, that you have flashed to another carrier. You may need someone who knows more about this stuff to help you. I have never even heard of red pocket.

I understand what your saying but i was on red pocket before i flashed the update. So i know the MJ4 Modem works with my phone. I dont know if i should just use the downgrade option and just say forget it. I will try to reflash and if that doesnt work ill just downgrade

Same Problem myself.
I am having the same problem too. I haven't been able to fix it either. Im guessing id have to rebuild the efs. Also does anyone know the msl for a device that has no esn meid or imei? I tried the correct MSL's I programmed and none work. Someone please help I am a noob here and phones are kinda new to me. I'm computer savy though, so that has helped quite a bit. The 16 digit password would work too. Just so I can get to it in CDMA workshop, or DFS.

If you downgrade the modem to MJ4, the signal will come back. Here's a link to the MJ4 modem.

Seems like we've all encountered this problem when it comes to flashing our phones from Sprint to another company because I've recently needed help fixing my 'red x' when I updated to KitKat. And I have to use the MJ4 modem as well, the NAB doesn't work.
Does anyone know what the problem could be, & why our phone only works on JellyBean modems?

I'm thinking because they found a way to lock the modem to only work on sprint. I'm going thru the same.

Lost 3G on T959

Everything has been running smoothly on my T-Mobile Vibrant until suddenly I lost my data connection (nothing was changed on my end). I am able to get a 2G connection by checking the "Use only 2G Networks" box, but when it is unchecked I get no data.
I pulled the SIM card and put in another phone and that phone did get a good 3G signal.
I flashed a new ROM - I am now using Slim Bean 2.6.0 with the KA7 modem. I replaced the SIM card with a new one. Still just 2G and only when that box is checked.
I'm stumped.
Is that the same modem you were using before?

No, before I was using KB5

You'll find the KB5 modem there if you want it back. Flash it in CWM.
Is data enabled? Dumb question, but it can solve all of your issues. Also, make sure you have APNS.

Sorry, I meant that I was using the KB5 modem before I switched to the KA7, however I don't get 3G with either one. The modem change, ROM change, and new SIM card were all things I've tried to fix the problem.
My data is enabled and I double checked the APN. Sigh... may be the end of a good run for this phone.

Yes, it does.
Well like stated above, the next step I would take would be to go ahead and Odin to stock. Reroot with update.zip and flash a ROM.
I recommend trying Paranoid Android. It runs very well. I would imagine whatever is amiss will get resolved.

[Q] [HELP] Galaxy Mega 6.3 LTE Non Functional

So after a lot of research in many different forums I can not seem to find a fix for my specific situation and I am hoping to find some help here. Long time member new accounts (To many emails to remember which I used for my first account.) But after snagging a new Phone, Mega LTE from USA Sprint, I decided to root it since I use Tethering constantly and would love to have that LTE power when I am on break.
The Problem is after I decided to root the phone I remembered CMod when I had my Original Photon a few years back and I thought I would check it out on my new phone. Below I will list the results as well the steps to achieve said results. Mind you I am hoping to fix my situation before I go in tomorrow and tell the Techs what I did HA! >.<
- Used TWRPS2
- Once Rooted with Odin 3.07 I found "cm-11-20140210-UNOFFICIAL-meliusltexx"
- I understand what Unofficial Stands for but Thought I would give it a try.
- During the Load Process in Recovery it Says Failed.
- Rebooted my phone and instantly rebooted to recovery and stated I had no OS and backup had been wiped.
- Scoured the net for a Stock rom to reboot back to the original Settings and just say forget modding.
- Found some that seemed to fit what I needed and none worked.
- After that I rebooted into DL Mode and Attempted to use Odin to get it to load.
- Once that happened and Failed I noticed a change.
- Rebooted again and now no Recovery Mode (Buttons or no buttons)
Now I am here:
- Can't get into Recovery to make any changes or even try a new Backup
- Can Boot into DL Mode but Odin will not Attach to it to load anything on.
- Can't Access anything through Kies because it will not connect just keeps loading
- - Does not Recognize the Device and keeps searching.
Hoping to find some help in fixing this on my own with the help of people I know may have been through this and not going back to Sprint knowing they will probably tell me I have to send it to the Insurance and pay a Deductible.
Is there any route that I can take to fix my issue? If you need details on anything ask and I will answer immediately I am up for the next 12 hours till I have to go in for my sprint appointment.
LTE
Today I updated the phone system. Downloaded 370 MB. It said security fixes installed the 126 amendments system and applications pre-installed, but the system remained the same Android 4.2.2. I noticed, however, that in the settings mode cellular networks appeared selection of LTE. In the end, I can surf the speed LTE network in Poland PLAY. Previously this was not and I had only WCDMA and GSM, and bar display only H + as I was in range and now displays the LTE, so that was a 6.3 Mega LTE Samsung lacked settings. You have to wait for updates in your country. I use the store bought version without locks imposed by operators in the international version of my model exactly GT-9205 with LTE. After updating writes I9205XXUCNA2 modem version and kernel version 3.4.0-2338537:fingers-crossed:
Do you remember if you were running Knox enabled firmware? CM works on the sprint mega , @moosiemooses can vouch for it, but LTE doesn't work.
If you want to flash KitKat Roms, you need an updated custom recovery , either one from my signature or philz advanced cwm.
Before I ask you to try anything, I would like to see your bootloader screen.

If it doesn't work in Odin mode then its def no drivers or its the USB cord. Use the factory cord from the mega and depending on the computer you have try all USB ports.

Yesterday when I was trying to root I was using the factory cable. I also used 2 or 3 others and none worked. Win makes the notification sound that something plugs in and unplugs but there is nothing there. It's definitely not the cable cause I used it for my note 3 and it was fine. Drivers that are available are there so it's possibly something in the NA7 firmware stopping it or maybe something in permissions. Problem is without root I have no way to check. I'm wondering if there is a flashable MK firmware that I can load on the SD and try flashing through stock recovery if Odin doesn't work

Don't think you can flash it on stock recovery. Tried a factory reset? Do you have another computer to try it on? Oh and try to toggle back and forth from these options as well.

Those options are not there cause nothing happens when the device is plugged in. There is no USB icon in the status bar. I haven't tried a factory reset yet. I'm going to try Odin when I get home today and if it doesn't work I will try that. If that doesn't work then I give up lol

[Q] Firmware upgrade encountered an issue error. Please help

I tried rooting my S4 using motochopper and it didnt work or so it seemed. Phone booted up then updated to kit kat automatically. I noticed some phishy types of things on my phone so i decided to restore to factory and everything went to hell. I tried to reflash back to factory firmware using Odin 3.09 and I keep getting a fail. It seems ive tried a ton of different firmware downloads from various site with no luck. they are all supposedly factory. Kies doesnt work because i cant get a Serial number only a IMEI. I can get to the download screen to try flashing with odin but it always fails otherwise im stuck on the 'Firmware upgrade has encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
The top left corner says
ODIN MODE

CURRENT BINARY; Samsung Official
KNOX KERNEL LOCK; 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID; 0x0

Please help ive been doing this for hours with no luck. I tried sammobile firmwares. not all but I did try I545VRUEMK2 which i imagined was appropriate
You need to Odin the NC5 firmware if you took the OTA, you can't Odin full versions of older software like MK2.

OK I got it! Thank you. Now I have kitkat so idk if I'm supposed to but that was my point in trying to root. Well anyways I tried the NC5 File and it didnt work. Then i was doing some more reading on it and realized my usb cord wasnt plugged into a USB port directly from the motherboard. It was plugged into the front USB from my case. I plugged it into the MOBO and it worked. Thanks alot!
I never got an email like I usually do when someone quotes me so sorry I couldn't respond sooner. Anyway glad to hear you got it all figured out!

[Firmware] NE5

First thanks to Garwynn for posting the stock firmware for us.
Since the firmware I posted is getting buried I am posting its own thread. Just to make sure people can find it if needed.
Here is a link to my NE5 folder on Copy. It has the following files. Stock Kernel (Odin and Zip), Stock Modem (Odin), Stock Recovery (Odin and Zip), mirror of the stock tar Garwynn posted, all firmware except the system and cache, and a tar with just the cache removed so it doesn't wipe data.
If you Odin the modem only tar put it in the phone slot. On the S4 it wouldn't take very well, if at all, unless you put it in phone. So I am assuming it is the same with the S5.

It depends. If you are still on an ND2 based rom and want to update, you odin this:
Stock_NE5_Rom_No_Data.tar.md5 (includes everything but cache to prevent data wipe) 1bafa46d70f67e8abd9358d1a7a09bca
If you already have an NE5 based rom, this will update the modem ONLY:
Stock_NE5_Modem.tar.md5 7a8b103649f4e9cdf927876922eaa26c
And to update the firmware, this one:
Stock_NE5_Firmware_No_System.tar.md5 (includes everything but the system partition and cache) 732d08b126b4e18429d111847ba1462d
Note: Updating firmware will cause stock recovery to come back, simply re-install your recovery of choice. You won't loose root. You might want to make sure that TWRP actually installs your backup. There have been reports of TWRP backing up ok, but not restoring. Philz recovery does work without problems.
utilizing Odin via the phone slot and mobile odin my baseband is still stuck on ncb baseband when I try to flash the modem file. Any suggestions?

I couldn't get it on mobile Odin either, I think we have to use a PC.

Yeah, I used PC Odin and it acted like it worked fine but my baseband won't change.

Are you using an app to get into download mode or are you shutting down, pressing volume down > home button > power button to get into download mode? I've read that using an app to get into download mode doesn't work too well. Also, using Odin 3.09 or 3.07 seems to be the best version.
i am still on nd2 so it looks like i will be needing the Stock_NE5_Rom_No_Data.tar.md5. i will be doing now via mobile odin....thanks ramer

You're right Odin 3.9 did the trick, thanks.
My baseband ver was G900PVPU1ANCB. Flashed the Moar rom, everything works. Flashed NE5 modem via odin but my baseband ver. stayed the same. I thought the baseband suppose to change? 4G signal isn't that good. Did I do something wrong?
I realized what the problem was. The 4 way reboot to download mode will not work. I was able to flash NE5 when I set my phone to download mode via hardware buttons.

Flash it again and make sure the phone is off before you boot into download mode. I had to flash several times to get the ND2 baseband to take. I do get much better LTE, especially when moving. I stream podcasts a lot when driving to and from work and it quit dropping data after flashing NE5. Also, I work in a basement and I can keep LTE down here where I couldn't before.

No, actually it took NE5 on the first try. I was expecting to have to flash it more than once because I had to flash twice when upgrading from NCB to ND2.

Sorry, I'm asking so many questions. Trying to get more of an understanding.

EDIT: I did it! Someone here linked me to a thread where it said to power off before booting into download mode and it worked like a charm!

Great! I hope you see as much of a difference as I did.
I flashed the stock no data ne5, but now I can't access menus through dialer codes, like ##3282#, is there something I can do to get it to work?

Hi guys !
I'm trying this trick in my Qtek 2020i and when I make a softreset the settings(User_) don't change.
But If switch from auto to night ambience the user_settings return to default.
What can I do ?
I must remove the User_settings from registry or other ?
Thanks in advance.

Note 2 Verizon Screwed.... SCH-I605.... Help!

So I have been working on a friend of mines Verizon Note 2 (SCH-I605) and have run into an issue... I had rooted it successfully to root66 VZW stock sys, then attempted to unlock the bootloader according to the [email protected] galaxynote2root(dot)com/galaxy-note-2-tutorials/how-to-unlock-bootloader-on-verizon-galaxy-note-2-sch-i605.... without reviewing the multiplicity of comments below the article which should have caught my attention and let me know that many people were unsuccessful with that method.
So now i appear to be screwed because it will boot into ODIN but thats it. I cant even get into stock recovery. Upon boot the Galaxy Note 2 splash stays on indefinitely, as it does when i follow the instructions on this site to restore it from a failed unlock, or unroot...... ODIN 3 + sch-I605-16gb.pit + Root66-VZW-stock_sys, when it reboots following flash the splash screen stays on. I have checked the NAND erase All as suggested on this site, and it makes no difference.
When vol up/home/power is pressed it says something to the effect that 'you are a dumb*ss and have screwed up your firmware dipsh*t'....
So what now? Id hate to have to replace my buddies Note 2.... and I had absolutely 0 difficulties unlocking and rooting my HTC One, so this sucks....
Use this guide to flash back to the appropriate version.

It's a great guide. Saved me last week after I flashed the wrong file in Odin.

Have you tried using a different image? What version of stock was on it before you messed with it?
Edit: If the stock version wasn't MJ9 or above then don't flash those. There currently isn't and probably won't be a way to unlock the bootloader on MJ9 and above.

well, thats a good question... it was already in a messed up state when i got ahold of it... i tried flashing root66 and it kept failing, i checked NAND ERASE ALL and flashed CI605_I605VRLJB_I605VRALJB_CL414933_HWID04_HW-Rev0406_low_ship_user.tar
as per a suggestion i read on xda.. it too failed as well, but then when i flashed root66 again (also i think with NAND ERASE on) it booted up beautifully...

i have recently read on a site that offers a bootloader downgrade service that if it has a knox counter, then it was updated to a version with a 'permalocked' bootloader... and if this is referring to the counter on the ODIN screen that says KNOX WARRANTY VOID:0 then this one is such a device.....

When you enter download mode does it say anything about Knox?
Edit: I didn't see your last post. Since it had the updated firmware with Knox, you should be at least able to get the phone working again by flashing that version of the firmware in odin. If it was on Android 4.3 then you should be able to odin MJ9 and it will work again. If it was on 4.4.2 then using odin to flash the ND7 image should fix it.

Did ID:COM turn blue in Odin? . You might have a driver problem.

The older one would be 4.3 which is MJ9. And yes use the pit file with it.
And just in case, I know you probably don't need it, the instructions for flashing with odin are in the return to stock section of the first post in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207

right you are about 4.3 being older... i was looking through the stock roms in that very guide and saw 4.1.2 and thought that was the one you had mentioned... im downloading MJ9 now..... thanks... hope this works...
so let me ask you this, if i get it back to stock, and rooted again... even though i cant unlock the bootloader, can i get it network unlocked? this entire dilemma occurred because he wants to be able to throw a straight talk sim in this phone.
i had intended to try this www(dot)scottsroms(dot)com/showthread.php?2786-How-I-turned-my-Verizon-Note-2-into-a-World-capable-GSM-phone
once i fixed the disaster....

Once you get the phone working you can use Saferoot to root it, that is as long as it's working on MJ9. If the phone had been updated to ND7 which is Android 4.4.2 then there currently isn't a way to root it.
Remember even if you get root you won't be able to use a custom recovery to flash stuff.
Also the sch-i605 is already Sim unlocked from Verizon. You just have to be able to edit the apn settings.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I don't know a lot about root66 so I can't help you much there, but I do know that while in download mode if it says something about Knox warranty then the bootloader had been updated to a version with Knox which started with mj9 for the i605.
