EFS backup is partition backup in the system that is modified by kernel holding info for imei.

Nandroid is full system partitions backup.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
So .. anyone knows what should my modem be ? I didn't pay attention for that when i was on stock ROM and now im not sure if it's the right one ?

(I bought my device in egypyt ,, it might not be made for Egypt ( but still for mid-east )

And , one more thing ,, when i try my imei with

www.imei.info

I get a wrong result for a sony mobile ,, which didn't happen with any other mobile i tried ,, any clue? !!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Hala wallah. You are in Damascus. Syria. Best modem for it is DLK7 for SyriaTel.

For iemi. I just checked mine. It is note2. Try again. Might you have entered it wrong.

Before you attempt to change modems. What base are you on now?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
Hala fik wallah :) .. but actually ,and unfortionately, I'm not . I'm in Egypt (with etisalat) right now ,, in fact i sometimes have some problems with poor signal , but never thought about modem till now

And ,, i tried the imei more that 5 times and still the same ,,, anyways .. here's me
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Ok. Etisalat Egypt best modem is also DLK7.

Before you change it. Do you have swift 2 nandroid. ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
Yeah I guess I do ,, but what could that matter ?

And,, any way to change the modem or i just search for it and do it with nothing special or so ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
It matters my friend. Swfit 3.0 is based on XXDME6. Swift 2 is based on XXDME1.

with XXDME6 and above firmwares, you cannot change modems. If you attempt to do so, you will lose IMEI and your baseband will be unknown.

If you then, try to downgrade by flashing older base, you won't be able to. your EFS partition is modified and cannot allow you to have mobile signal.

So, you have two options now:

1) restore swift 2 which is DME1 base. It comes with DLK7 default modem.

2) restore swift 2, boot up the phone, download Thunder ROM from dev section which is DME6 base, flash it and choose DLK7 modem.

No matter what, don't delete your Swift 2 nandroid.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
How can I delete it after all this :D

So ,, will the thunder rom be the same as this ? As i really got used to it and i like it ( especially battery life) .. if not .. I think i will be back to swift 2 and keep on it ( as I noticed no difference between 2 and 3 )

Notice: i think I have a nandroid for stock rom , but after I rooted it . Will it make any help ?

And btw , thank you so much , you are being extremly interactive with your "customers" :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
You are welcome man.

No after rooting you can't restore stock nandroid. Won't work.

Stick to swift 2. Better for your case until samsung releases a fix for the new firmware we hope.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Are you facing sds now? I don't think so. Sds has been fixed since ALJ2 firmware. So don't worry.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
So ,,, here I am .

Shoul I stop here for now till something new happer .. or ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Good. So you are on swift 2 now.

Use modem changer tool from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40246388

Flash it thru recovery and choose dlk7.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
Will I be able to back again to the swift 2 with all its setting? Just in case , if something went wrong ( i guess the backup dosent include efs backup)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Let me see if I understood you correctly.

1. You had a backup nandroid of swift 2.

2. You restored that backup thru recovery.

3. Your current modem after restore is XXDME4.

Ok. Now i recommend you to use twrp recovery.

Boot into recovery.

Backup your rom swift 2 to external SD. With the backup choose all boxes including efs.

Now reboot.

Use root explorer and copy /efs to your external SD.

After that flash modem changer thru recovery twrp and choose dlk7 modem.

Reboot. And report back if all goes well.

In case of issues using the modem. Restore your nandroid you made last.

In case that didn't give you signal, copy /efs from external to /efs replacing all.

Reboot.

Good luck Joan.

I need help guys.

I was on Assassin ROM and I tried flashing a diff rom and now i do no have network on ma phone, so was trying to do sumthn and the phone was bricked(atleast thts what ifeel! I had this comp and a phone image with a triangle in between) I then flashed a preeoted DMC3 rom by Dr Ketan and resurrected my phone, however still without network :( I then flashed Swift 3 with XXDME4 modem bundled with it but still no network(obviously IMEI is still missing).

Can anyone help?

TIA

God bless!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Go back to stock no root thru odin.

Root again. And install custom recovery

Hello, friends,

I have a small problem.

I can't change the wallpaper of lock screen, I don't know why, I did a wipe , but, impossible, any idea ?

Good day for everybody :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Wallpaper or live wallpaper?

Can you post screenshots of what you get?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Jwan:
I know it's not my problem yet .. but for what you answered , can i say that if I lose my efs imei and stuff , and I did a pure install for the official original software , will I get everything back to normal ?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Ultimately installing stock firmware thru odin, Unrooted, should recover the issues.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] reachnimesh:
Despite me flashing the original Stock through Odin, I still didnt have network on my phone and obviously IMEI was messed up. I had to then restore my EFS that I had preserved(thankfully)

So dont really know if you would encounter something like this but one important advice, keep ur efs backed up.'

Cheers!

---------- Post added at 12:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:41 AM ----------

Hey bro, tried all of that but it didnt work. I had to restore efs to get network back on my phone.

However what surprised me was when i flashed ur rom XXDME1 rom which had DDKL7 radio, I again had no network. I had to redo my EFS restore.

Wondering will I have to keep restoring my EFS everytime i flash a rom?

Any suggestions here?

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Cruzfire:
If jump back and forth between new/old base, I think yes.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
It seems yes. EFS restore is important to fix this issue. Let's hope for Samsung releasing a fix in the next firmware...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] reachnimesh:
Thnx for ur response!

I find this really weird, I know I dont have a choice tho!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] rosebud11:
Hi, during these days I tried a lot of Roms, because the new firmwares realese that created new versions of them: for my usage I chosed the Swift. It runs very well with the Saber Kernel: the Swift protects its smoothness, but adds speed. I can't tell precise informations about the battery life: it seems to give the traditional 6 hours of screen on and an hard usage.

I have only a (big) problem: when I make or recive a phone call I don't see the name of the person that I have on my google account, but only the telephone number..it's troublesome. On the phone book everything it's ok.

What can I do? If I solve this problem I find my Rom!

I post a screenshot of what I said:

http://db.tt/1mZQ09M0

Thanks for the attention.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
The issue is because of maybe some mods you installed...

Fix is simple.

Turn off sync.

Remove google account.

Reboot.

Add your Google account.

Sync contacts.

Reboot.

Check you log. Done...

2. for wallpaper, I checked multiple times, I don't have this issue. You may need to nandroid first and flash the rom no wipe.

i was testing v3 since it came out, i have tried new modem and also xxdme4 which was best for me on v2. i have noticed higher drain caused by phone radio on v3 regardless of the baseband version. when testing battery life i always use same version and tweaked settings of perseus kernel, i always have same setup in terms of installed apps and app usage...now back on v2 i get same old excellent battery life third day in a row.

i see im the only one with this kind of problem so the problem is prolly on my end, im very happy with v2 and i could stick with it forever:) so i don't feel urge to update to v3, but it still bugs me what could be source of my issue with v3...

Hi, I'm testing the Swift Rom with the last Saber Kernel: I think it's incredible! For my using it's the best Rom that I tested, because it's customizable, fast and at the same time it preserves the smooth attitude of the Saber Kernel.

I have a problem: when I stop to use 3g and I start to use wifi, the smartphone doesn't go to deep sleep. The deep sleep returns only when I reboot my Note 2. I have to do this action every time: it's troublesome. What can I do?

Thanks for the reply. With bbs I saw that my Note 2 had not strange battery drain. Maybe it's a Kernel problem, but I like the Saber Kernel!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wesamothman:
Ok mate. I suggest you try other kernels like stock. Issue more likely is kernel issue. With stock kernel or Adam kernel could be highly solved.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] rosebud11:
Well, I tried both this Kernel, but I experienced that for my usage the Saber Kenrel is better :) However, Yesterday when I stopped to use 3g connection and I started to use WIFI, I didn't have deep sleep problems..maybe the Rom and the Kernel need to have time for a good optimisation. In fact I saw also that day after day I receive all the notifications; the first time with this configuration I had notifications only from some apps. So I'll try to see if really I solved my problem, to have everyday feelings with your Amazing Swift Rom :good:
