im talking to Samsung Support for more details..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] mitchellvii:
Found weird bug in v5. I will be typing in a forum like Tapatalk and suddenly it will just force closed and I get an error message at the bottom that says "App has been closed" (or something to that effect - can't recall exact words). Of course everything you have typed is lost.

It seems to happen if you accidentally click between 2 keys at once (although I can't be sure that is it). Happens with all keyboards so it isn't a Samsung Keyboard thing.

My guess is that somehow the "hold down back button to close an app" is being triggered by simply typing. Can we turn that mod off?

I actually downloaded the file you told me to flash and I wasn't able to transfer from computer to the device.

You didn't say whether or not does TWRP works with this or not??

So should I re-flash anyways with TWRP (what I have) or install CWM?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] BaDaB!ng505:
This guide are for those who dont have efs back-up.....if you have efs already back up somewhere follow guide few post back..

Format system and wipe data/factory reset

Odin your device back to ICS

Install CWM and SU

Using Root Explorer.. go to FactoryApp/serial_no..and edit (000000) to your serial #..you can find it somewhere on the back of your device. this will create a bak file..you can just delete bak. file

also check factorymode is ON ..if OFF edit to ON...

Now go back to EFS folder check nv_data.bin and nv_data.md5 see if there all these codes inside and not blank(very important cuz your imie is inside) if it does, do nothing leave it alone ..your on the right path

Now copy the whole EFS folder to sdcard.....

Go back to EFS folder and Delete EFS folder...reboot..this will create a generic EFS folder

you will see yellow text ...no worries

Next go to Generic EFS Folder and delete it... a blank EFS folder will be create by default

Now got to Sdcard and open up EFS and select all the files and folder inside and paste in back to Blank EFS Folder...and reboot check if yellow text is gone

Assuming you have androidsdk store on computer C: drive

1..Plug Device to Computer.. Reboot Device in CWM recovery/ mount system

2 on computer Shift+Ctrl +right click to open command window

command window type ( lazy step..copy and paste each line and hit enter)

cd c:/androidsdk/tools

adb shell

su

mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /efs

reboot

this should should stick and your IMIE and Serial Number should be restored....​

if this works or any of you got it to work with my other method please help others if needed ... i need some rest now and will assist anyone who have this problem when i wake up..... thank you

You miss a step... your factorymode is off

The step where you delete generic efs folder ..when you leave that screen I automatic restores it the generic folder, you dont want that

That where it tricky....okay when you copy efs folder from sdcard....this what I do

Mount ro

Select copy efs from sdcard/parent folder/ click on generic efs/delete/ copy efs.....all in one step

No it is on

First time i did it factory was off, didn`t get yellow text, but lost serial #.

Now with factory on , have yellow text & serial # is saved.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] BaDaB!ng505:
my mistake .you to reboot and check if yellow text is gone after this step before using adb in rocovery

just follow step above and reboot..no need to start from the beginning

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] lsherif:
@BaDa,

Hope you got some rest after all this marathon effort, i also slept but just 3 hours.

Now back to the issue :

After several trials & errors managed to get the ics up & ruuning with the following :

1. No Yellow text.

2. Both Serial # & Factorymode are saved ( factorymode on ).

3. Even installed stock XXCMC3 everything is still there.

4. Got into 3e recovery & performed "Wipe data factory reset" & went just fine WITHOUT any red messages " E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument " . which i had at the beginning of the problem.

5. Still after this wipe have all data in the EFS stored, serial # , factorymode, etc.......

6. BUT STILL can`t make phone calls " EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY" and getting a message when making a call " NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK" even tried with several SIM Cards for different operators.

REALLY Don`t know what is going wrong in here.

Here are screen shots of what i have now on my stock XXCMC3 .

Appreciate your help
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] Beast Power:
Mine does the same still with generic IMEI, something I saw on your srceenshots, is that you have a file in the efs/imei directory and mine is empty.

For me it's the opposite . After restored the efs folder in the same time my signal was back but the yellow text still there .

But after restarting the device the efs folder was directly deleted i don't know why and for that i lost the signal again.

For the yellow text i checked the the factorymod well still on but the text still there .

Sharif my brother is there any chance to pm you my efs folded so you can do your magic on it . I really don't care about the signal as much as the yellow text .

So please let me know if you agree.

Re: ||ROM|| XXMB2||| Collective Edition v4 200+ ways to Pimp your Rom |] Live [|

You must copy the extracted efs folder with es file explorer or a other root explorer with Root access and write permissions enabbled , to the root of your device.

Be Shure you extract the efs backup zip on the device, this is for holding the correct file permissions.

let know if this Useful.

I recover my device.to front this efs problem
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] lsherif:
Did you have a previous EFS backup that you restored or you just followed BaDa`s steps ?

I'm on 8013 and have had no issues with v5. Unless pretty much everyone with an 8000 bricked it may well have been user error or some other unlucky combination of things. I hard bricked an SII before so I feel your pain though. At least your GN would turn on. Good luck.
