[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
I recently obtained my Note 2 from Wind, however my IMEI was switched to null/null by a failed attempt at flashing a rom. I have tried flashing the Stock rom from sammobile for the SGH-t889V/Wind using Odin, however bootloops still persist.

I can get the phone running in a custom ROM such as JediX, however than the issue with the IEMI pops up and it seems I need a stock rom to have any attempt to fix it.

As of now, I have reverted the phone back to stock/unroot and it is in bootloop. Any help would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
You need to go into recovery and do factory reset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
Factory reset has also been attempted several times.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
After flashing factory image via odin right ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
Yep, factory reset after installing stock rom for the T889V. I rooted it afterwards to get into recovery and wiped everything but still no change, stuck in bootloop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pigjr:
I sincerely hope "never flash any t889 custom rom on your t889v" could appear somewhere obvious in t889 forums to avoid such tragedy happening again
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
No. Don't root it yet. Flash factory image. Reboot (should result in boot loop). Go into FACTORY RECOVERY (vol up+home+power). That will have a option to do a factory reset. Do that. Reboot again. This time you should be able to boot successfully. After that you can root and stuff.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
Did it word for word as you said. Flashed the stock image via Odin, and then did factory reset using your method. Still in bootloop.

In Odin my phone says it is SGH-T889V_NA_VTA

Custom Binary Download: Yes (9 Counts)

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

I am using the T889VVLALJ4_T889VYVLALJ4_GLW image, retrieved from Sammobile Am I supposed to be using GLW with a VTA as it says in Odin, or should my phone be saying it is a GLW?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
hmm. What did your phone come with? GTW or MCT or VTR? Use the correct tar and see if that clears it up.

Don't worry about system status saying custom and binary saying 9. you can clear all that up later once you get a stock image.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
My phone is saying VTR in Odin, would I be able to used the Odex Rom you provide in your post?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
You can, but that's rooted and need CWM or TWRP to flash it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
My phone is a GLW phone, however the GLW Stock ROM doesnt seem to work my phone. To reiterate, I'm still experiencing the same problem regardless of reboots/wiping.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
Here is the factory image for GLW
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GaidenX:
VTR still isn't working. I'm pretty sure this phone is a GLW, however anything stated in this thread has not worked to assist me in getting my phone to work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] teshxx:
Well in that case not sure what to tell you. Factory Image should at the very least let you boot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] verifiedsub:
Just wanted to let you know that I am in the same boat as you are.. I worked with ptmr3 for about 3 days trying to fix it.. but to no avail..

I sent it away through wind. Which they tried to charge me 350 $ to have it fixed since there is no way to remove the flash counter without being on stock rom.. I can also install jedi x roms on my t889v but the bootloop still persists after about 2 or 3 minutes of being on the home screen.. my signel also is gone.. according to the service center that wind sends their phones away to they stated. Faulty motherboard.. motherboard modified.. root access found.. so in other words I am sitting here with a 729 $ paperweight with no way of fixing it..

I am looking into a company called jtag repairs.... but they have been reluctant to send me an email back about it..

Repair

Hi, I had the same problem after flashing a T-Mobile ROM, after flashing the T-Mobile ROM I was stuck in a bootloop.

To get out of the bootloop

1. I flashed the stock WindMobile ROM

2. Flashed cwm recovery V6.0.2.5 .tar: http://www.mediafire.com/?oyv15gidjxd6c23

3. Flashed the T-Mobile modem through the recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2102380

4. I was back up using the phone, however no signal. To fix this i used nv-writer tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1804117

5.I flashed this file (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1580200&d=1356058365) through the nv-writer tool and voila, signal was back!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] verifiedsub:
Well I just need to restore the imei now. But to be honest with you I dont even care about that right now.. im just happy the bootloops have stopped..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] verifiedsub:
Dl link for currupt imei is broken in op of the link you gave do you have a copy of that program I cannot download it..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireboy12345:
IMEI Corrupt

Yea I found it, here you go http://d-h.st/vVV

I couldn't find the link yesterday, but this is where I downloaded to fix my IMEI.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] goutam55:
Thank you nut Need Help Plz

Thank you very much for the steps.:good: I had the boot loops but it solved by above steps. But I always get Wind away. I tried the nv writer tool and nothing happened. Tried to flash stock modem and it goes to boot loop again. So I did the steps again. Plz hepl.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireboy12345:
Re injecting IMEI itself won't solve the wind away problem, you will have inject the attached nv file as well, only then you will have a functioning AWS phone again!

If you need more instructions regarding that, post a reply and I will either write or make a video on instructions how to do that in greater detail.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] goutam55:
Yes brother can you give me some instructions.. 10000 times thanks

Video

Hi this video here demonstrates how to use the IMEI generator tool to recreate your IMEI number and restore it to your phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1804117

Since the second software, nv-gen is missing from dropbox, here's the link http://d-h.st/vVV

It's written for SG3 but will work on Note 2.

1. Video Link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AlQmfMJBK0)

2. Few Things to consider

He mentions the use of RMNET, since our phone does not have this listed you can use RNDIS instead as this will work fine.

You will also use the steps he restored his IMEI to restore you IMEI. Once you are done that you will write this file (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1580200&d=1356058365) while keeping the default range instead of chaning it. Make sure to backup before writing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] goutam55:
When I try to flash the full nv backup, It says unsuccessful. I do not have signal. just wind away. I have my imei .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireboy12345:
Can you at least connect to the program as shown in the instructions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] goutam55:
Yes, i can connect to the program
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireboy12345:
So im assuming you followed the exact instructions checked both required boxes and clicked read and phone shows up. You did NOT change the default values unless you were restoring IMEI, which you already restored.

When you click write and choose the file provided it says unsuccessful? When you restored just the IMEI it worked fine?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] goutam55:
It worked fine when I was restoring IMEI. but when i tried to flash the text file you provide, it says unsuccessfully written in main window. But the pop up windows says 86 NV items written.

I did not change the value. i tried with stock rom and jedi rom. Not working. I have IMEI even if i flash custom rom, but no signal.

Another question is why I can not flash t889v modem. if I flash the modem it goes to bootloop:crying::crying:

Right now i am in stock rom with CWM and tmobile modem which stops bootloop
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] verifiedsub:
I tried nv flasher but never worked. Tried prob 5 different ways of doing it.. on windows.. linux.. nothing works.. so I finally gave in and sent it to Jtag repairs.. should have my t889v back in about 7 to 8 days just to go straight on kijiji and sell it.. lol.. I have the i317m now but either way bro I tried everything but to no avail..

Hi there, i am quite literally the same boat as you are. I get my 889v up and running with a t-mobile modem but when i flash the wind mobile modem i go back into a boot loop. When i use the NV-writer/reader to flash the file that is suppose to fix connectivity issue i get the same unsuccessful write with the 86 NV items written. if anyone can give me a hand with figuring this out it would be greatly appreciated.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sickness925:
I just got a brand new SGH-t889 galaxy note 2 that was a store demo model and loaded with bloatware, also prohibited me from powering off using device keys, had to POP battery... tried uninstalling Samsung/t-mobiles demo.apk's, of course that was blocked too. Phone, sms, mms, &data worked fine, device just kept launching into demo. So I rooted/flashed twrp recovery, still couldn't delete those demo.apk's... a few beers later, I somehow deleted my ENTIRE OS!! Brilliant, right? Only thing left was twrp recov. no boot loader, looped for awhile then froze on Samsung screen. No odin mode. after REPEATEDLY popping batt, 3button combo got me into stock recovery , followed by odin. Flashed the md5 in galaxy note 2 tools, stuck on Samsung screen again. I realize it was my dumbass fault for DELETING MY OS, but still really want to fix this & end up with a sgn2 -possibly on t-mobile pre pay, still undecided - that isn't endlessly in demo mode.. YOUR ASSISTANCE IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xcrazydx:
So you stole a demo model from a T-Mobile store?

Nice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bpun:
Selected network (WIND) unavailable

I am in the same exact scenario as goutam55 i.e. on Stock WIND rom with CWM on TMOBILE modem. Boot loops has stopped and IMEI restored as per FireBoy12345's instructions. Flashing FireBoy12345's full NV write file result in this in the main window but 86 NV write successfully in the popup:

Writing NV-items from a file:

Unsuccessfully written NV-items:

00001 (0x0001) - Read only item

Done.

Is anyone, goutam55 or FireBoy12345 able to resolve this? If so please shine some light on this, thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tppickles:
I got a store demo model before and all I did was grabbed the correct .tar files for the phone and flashed through odin . It was a pretty easy fix, Make sure your downloading the correct firmware eg. T-mobile for t889 or MCT for Mobilicity t889v VTR for Videotron t889v and GLW for WIND t889v
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] asd313asd:
First off i am new to android had blackberries and iphones for the past few years and finally decided to upgrade and get myself an android! I have the Note II SGH-I317M Rogers device unlocked to be used with Telus (csc has been changed to so i can use Telus firmware) i learned how to flash roms yesterday after hours of research and i now feel comfortable doing it. In this post though http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2016575 i am a little confused. It says "ROM Works with Rogers Note II. See post #3." but apparently those are old versions. Am i safe to use "ULTIMATE ROM v1" from page one? I know this is a little confusing so if you are confused by what i am asking let me know and i will try to clarify.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skwerl23:
I don't know this ROM. But if it works. It always works. They wouldn't downgrade. Just make sure you get any modem data if needed. You don't want to flash it and then have no data connection.

To be extra safe always have this ready to go.

Firmware for rogers.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] asd313asd:
Thank you very much! I already have the stock firmware on my computer as a backup and i have backed up the CWM recovery.

One more N00B question though what exactly is modem data?

Again thanks for all your help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] htc fan89:
I think he means the NV backup ( Imei backup) so, if your data connection messes up or somehow your imei becomes 0. you would have a backup of it.
[Android Apps and Games] 309041291a:
Just recently got a Nexus 4. Tried to transfer my 1.0.8 Zenonia 4 offline modded APK from my Nexus S. It wouldn't even get to a loading screen, it opens and the screen just stays black then it instantly returns me to home screen.

I've tried other versions (1.0.7 and below) for Zenonia 4. All versions of the offline APK result the same way, instant close. I've tried the Play Store version that requires a constant connection. That one works. But I simply can't always have a connection to the internet, especially in the argument of persevering battery. Anyhow, the same situation goes for Zenonia 5. All the offline versions don't work, whereas the PlayStore version (online) does.

So, is it possible for someone to formulate an offline APK that actually works on the Nexus 4?

I do not care if the games does not have a zen hack (that would be illegal anyways). I just want one that doesn't need a constant connection to play. For Zenonia 4 try a version above 1.0.8 and for Zenonia 5 the recent PlayStore version is a good base.

Well, thanks to whoever, I hope someone can help me.
