[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
1. The first error is fine; it's just telling you that you backed up a T-Mobile Mega and you're restoring it to an AT&T Mega. It's warning you for your protection (different model numbers usually mean completely different devices, but not in this case).

2. Second error is also normal; normally QPST resets the phone, but for whatever reason it couldn't reboot it for you. You can just hold the power button down for like 6 seconds or yank the battery when it says that.

The guy who did the Note 2 mod somehow removed the IMEI completely from the backup, and since there isn't one included, it isn't overwritten on the device itself. I'm not sure how he did it; PM him.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Thanks... I appreciate the feedback. :good:

I know the new file writes to the phone, and it has changed the bands. Now I would just like to do what the other guy did and completely remove the IMEI from the backed up file so when written to the new device, the IMEI of the new device goes undisturbed and I don't have to change the IMEI back. I will try to PM the person that did it to see if he can help.

I gave up in the end and traded for a t889. I guess there are some i317s that just don't have the hardware. Anyway the other guy gets LTE+$50 and I get a note 2 that works on Wind home!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
Yeah that's what I did. For some reason AWS worked on my i317 (though not super stable, unlike on my i337 AT&T S4), but it never picked up T-Mobile LTE. I switched to the T889 and couldn't be happier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZafarHSayed:
For some reason I cannot get this to work. I've gone through the steps completely multiple times to install the mod. It installs fine, but when I search for networks 1/10 times I'll get Wind Home (every other time shows multiple Wind Away networks). Even when I do find Wind Home I cannot connect to it.. I still get "emergency calls only" and no service messages in the notification bar.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: by the way, I'm using an I317m in canada, unlocked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
What phone are you trying to write to? The Note II?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZafarHSayed:
yea.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Have you tried this LINK
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZafarHSayed:
Yes I've tried his guide too which is pretty much the same as this. Could there be a problem with my phone? And is there any way to check?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Gotta be because you are using the "M" version...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ZafarHSayed:
Some people have it working and some are getting the same problems as me.. I don't see why there is such a huge variation in success the hardware can't be that different can it? I'm just talking about the canadian models (i317m). I tried the mod again and I can find wind home every time now but it takes forever to connect, once it does still nothing works. Same problem.

Hi

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigfdaddy2:
anything with getting the verizon band working?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DorkyDev:
Kinda unrelated and not...

But I manually added a MetroPCS APN and when I was in a no coverage zone where I get edge/gprs signal constantly a lot, I switched over to that APN and started suddenly getting HSPA and LTE Speeds anywhere from 3Mbps to 10 or 13.

My gf was pissed, cause she didn't believe me that T-Mobile is taking over MetroPCS I took off her Galaxy S4 battery door cover and showed her the sim card, which MetroPCS uses for LTE coverage, then I showed her my sim card and showed her me selecting the MetroPCS and connecting to it and then getting coverage, all she said is you're kidding me right. hahaha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bbrennan:
This has my curiosity, could you share the Metro PCS apn you are using?

I live in an unframed area and the trick in the OP has worked wonder, but while i was on an ATT S3 i showed lte in one area in town but now with the Note 2 all I see is 4g.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DorkyDev:
It was this:

Name: metropcs
APN: fast.metropcs.com

And then here's this:

Sure it says fast.t-mobile.com, but fast.metropcs.com also works. I believe the one in the code box is just for mms though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DorkyDev:
My only other APN settings are from HiAPN I choose to let it create 2 instead of cleaning 1 and go in and rename the second APN fast.t-mobile.com before SkyNote 4.3 Rc9z I never had to worry about any of this then I forgot backup my APNs and sean even said back them up. LoL! Sucks cause I noticed I somehow had a IPv6 1 that I can't remake cause it wont let ya manually edit that part. haha

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
PM me your IMEI and I'll inject it into my own QCN backup. I can't guarantee it'll work but if you're willing to try, I'll give it a shot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DorkyDev:
I just did a speed comparison on all four APN's and it appear the one in the code box I got the fastest speeds out of them all from the one in red, it was 29d 11u, everything else was 25d and 8u...

I wonder if someone went over their data cap and switched to a metroPCS APN if you'd still be throttled or not...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jameyscott:
Still dying for a fix for my i605. Tmobile still hasn't gotten 4glte in my area which means I've been stuck on edge forever. :/ might end up just selling this and a few other phones I have and look for something else.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
Not saying this to be mean, but don't hold your breath dude. CDMA models are infinitely more complicated because they have a ton more NV items in modem memory than the GSM models do. You're better off trading for a T-Mobile model.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jameyscott:
Srjavi was supposed to send me the nv items I needed to edit in order for it to work, but I guess he never got around to it because it's been about 6 months.

I'd love to change to the tmobile, but I'd have to find someone dumb enough to switch for mine to be for straight talk or something, because this phone has a bad esn. That's why I got it for 250 last February. ;)

Try this

Go to play store

Download servicemode shortcut

Open it Click on service mode then

Click 1 umts then 6 common then 6 nv rebuild then 4 restore.

Note. If it says no golden backup made than you cant restore your original nv items and will have to get a copy off xda or someones phone and change the imei to yours

You can find the most recent modem here

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48728834#post48728834

Flashing it would technicaly fix whatever change you did with the aws mod. As it just re locks the aws bands

I would give you my copy but all my nv items are from a t889 with a imei as unkown

Lol I almost forgot

You can use code ×#7284# select lte or whatever then click menu back and select automatic it will tell your phone what to search for first
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ninjas4life:
thank you so much for your help i will let you know the results when i get out of work

Well you can try this method of unlocking 4.1.2

Download original modem i317UCALJ2 and flash it

Then try free unlock method

The other way is to get servicemode.apk from 4.1.1 in a flashable zip and flash it to the 4.1.2 build and it would unlock again I cant seem to find the file but I am sure someone still has it.

for those who did this and did not get LTE, it might be because of your tmobile sim/account. I was getting frustrated, then i put in my friends sim, which had LTE and it worked. so if its just showing 4g, thats just your sim, not your phone.

if i do this while on stock 4.2.1 rom will i lose the unlock if i upgrade the rom or baseband?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ojai00:
I believe the unlock persists but you just have to redo the AWS Mod if you upgrade the baseband/modem.

question

i have a stock 4.3 att note 2. i did this mod exactly to the instructions. i get emergency calls only and even sometimes to eneter the password to unlock phone. question is how can i change all that and make it work nothing is working no calls no internet or no text.is there a fix?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] force70:
Pretty sure you need to be on 4.1.1 for this to work.the OP is over a year old dude and Sammy has long since patched the ability for us to do this via updates.. same goes for the s3...would not even work on 4.1.2.

As for a fix I have no idea, sorry.

sent from canada via my G2, Note 3 or S4
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ilaf0106:
Ok so this happened.

I got my wife's note 2 .she had OTA MK6 already pure stock.

So I Odin back to 4.1.1 lj2 did the whole mod unlock to use tmobile and then did the aws mod.

After that I inserted the tmobile sim card I was on the tmobile network WITH LTE.

so then I rooted the phone. Wanted to install a 4.3 rom so I flashed the 4.3 param.tz and installed the hybrid 4.3 rom

And now I get no LTE. So I thought it was the ROM. So I decided to odin back to 4.1.1 thinking I would get it back. Nothing. I then restored original aws from my phone then back to the modified aws. And nothing.

So my question is what happened to my LTE. Im stuck with pure hspda and only get 8mbps when I had LTE on tmobile network. I was getting around 25s and both tests were at my house ....

Please anybody know how I can get LTE back
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rymenigmatic:
Wow!!! Going through the same deal. I can get LTE back by inserting my T mobile sim card into my T mobile Note 3. When I first put it in it only picks up the 4G bands but when I reboot LTE returns. At this point I remove my T mobile sim and return it to the ATT Note 2 and I have got LTE once again. I have repeated this process over and over again because after 8 hrs of having FULL T mobile LTE on an ATT NOTE2 it reverts back to just picking up the 4G bands...I have given this a break for now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Not working

Fyi............

I recently bought 190 sgh-i317 at&t note 2's. I unlocked them all with nspro. Then i tried restoring the qcn file posted in this thread and it only works on some of the devices i have restored it to. About 6 out of 10. The devices that it doesn't work on give me edge data speed no matter what i do. So i created my own qcn file that i am now using, to see if there would be a difference, or if it was just the device or if it was the manner i was restoring the qcn file to the device with. The qnc file i have now works on 100% of my devices. Full lte and 4g. No issues. All AWS and HSPSP T-Mobile Bands enabled on the AT&T Device.

I have not figured out yet what the difference is between the 2 qcn files, but i am hoping to find out and see what the matter is. And post it here.

Is anyone else experiencing this, getting just edge data after restoring the qcn file posted here? If so, i would like you to try my qcn file to see if it makes a difference on your device as well.

Someone with the same EDGE issue please try this qcn file and let me know asap

I am using QPST 2.7 Build 422 to restore.

View attachment notetmobile.zip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ilaf0106:
Does it have to be build 422 because I used build 374 and I did your qcn but nothing still just 4g

Edit: nevermind your qcn actually made it faster but still on HSPA .

Now I know what's wrong with my phone. Not getting LTE. My wife has a note 3 with T-Mobile, so I inserted my card to her phone just to try it. Boot it up and BAM! No lte either. Then I inserted her sim card into my unlocked ATT note 2........ And FINALLY LTE. So then I ran some test restarted it, and still on LTE. But wait a minute why. So I took out her sim card looked at it. And found out that her micro sim card is different from mine why I don't know. Hers is an advanced micro sim card with ISIS. And mine just a regular sim card. Did some research this sim card is meant for some wallet purchasing with your phone but for some reasonit qworks as LTE for my ATT unlocked phone and I'm happy and now to go ask for one at the T-Mobile store ^_^.

Finally excited so if you have any unlocked phone with lte compatible and want to use T-Mobile LTE make sure you have the advanced micro sim card and LTE will be working!

:cheers: ^o^
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Go to *#*#4636#*#* select the top option, I think it's device information, and make sure your phone is set to LTE
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ilaf0106:
OK and you mean only lte or lte with gsm .

When I do lte only I get no service.

Another strange thing is with my phone is. My wife has a note 3 with tmobile and

when iadd her sim card on my phone I get lte. And when I add my sim

card to hers she only gets 4g. She has the advance micro sim card and mine is too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
One of the sim cards an ISIS card?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ilaf0106:
BOTH ARE... mine is a isis sim card for my unlocked note 2

and my wife is isis sim card for her note 3 from tmobile

i dont get lte on my sim

she does get lte on her sim

i put her sim in my phone then i get lte

i put my sim in her phone and she only gets 4g

how strange is that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ojai00:
Finally narrowing down the issue! :good: I think there were a few posts that suggested certain SIM cards might not work for LTE. Perhaps you can make a trip to the T-Mobile store and try a SIM swap to see if that works? Good luck!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ramirnuel:
Sorry, i posted something but I think that is wrong.

I have network problems with my phone, I have done a lot of researches and those issues may be a result of efs, I didn't do a backup so what I wanted to do is that someone share a fill efs backup, I know that it contains the imei so it will be illegal but I saw that we can remove that number from a qcn backup (made with qpst) with efs professional, but I saw the users here have the t mobile version of the phone and I have the AT&T version, so I don't know if it will work that's the reason I tried to delete that post putting "..".

What Im trying to do may help a lot of users who have the same problem as me that didn't do an efs backup but the problem is that I don't know if it will work and if the efs backup contain more info that will make it illegal to share it.

I have been like 3months now trying to fix my phone but I can't, it has signal problems, before I flash the qcn from here that enables aws bands I had no signal at all but after I flashed it I have some signal but in some places, I thing that I screwed the efs folder because when I bought it the signal was incredible where I live, I had the 5 signal bars and know only 3, 2,1 and zero signal, my info of the phone is fine, I have the correct one number just the serial number is 00000000000, I restored the imei with qpst but can't do the same with the s/n.

Well I hope that you or something else can help me with my problem and think about the efs backup that I was looking for I'm not an expert but I think it could work, thanks in advance and sorry about my English since is not my native language.
