Actually i have flashed the phone without backup of the efs partition ,now i am having no service ie no gsm network.

script didnt work for me still get loop brick.Any help?(i also have an old back up of imei with two files one efs.img and one modem.bin taken with philz touch 6 )

edit,just now i saw that its not for 4.4 :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wesamothman:
You can still restore efs.img

Anyone with your device working rom

Terminal emulator.

Post here the output of Mount.

Then I will write you a command how to restore.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] valentinosael:
can you please be more spesific? which output mount?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] golfcartguy:
Please do be more specific, I too am trying to restore the imei of my note 3. N900t. 4.4.2 NB4

If I understand you, there are a specific set of commands to run in either twrp or terminal emulator that will "rewrite" the imei or entire partition? (I have a few more errors in the entire partition I believe)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Be well

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wesamothman:
I don't know which device exactly you have ...

But if you have access to a working similar device.

Open terminal emulator

Type

Mount

Paste the output here. I want to see your efs partition number so that I can write you a command to restore efs.img

To restore

Terminal emulator

Type

Su

Then assuming the location of your efs.img is in your external sd card.

Type

dd if=/storage/extSdCard/efs.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=4096

The mount output has efs partition number block

Something like mmcblk0p3

But it could be different from device type to another.

First find this block number and modify the command above accordingly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] golfcartguy:
Wesamothman,

Thank you for getting back so quickly.

The device in question is thr Tmobile version of the Note 3, N900T, running android 4.4.2, 1st version ending in NB4.

I am wondering if these commands will work, even if I have a bad backup (corrupted), or for someone without a backup at all?

I guess I am asking if this will rebuild the partition?

Thanks again,

And I will update everyone with the results when I try the commands.

Be well

im also having this same issue now ...i flashed UK based ND3 stock rom from odin, now i got Baseband unknown

i tried reflashing back from odin but now the phone got worse, it's stuck on setupwizard, couldn't enter any app sluggish, no sound

i tried this script, but didn't do anything ...what should i do?

thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] HSD-Pilot:
Try the E4 FW (Singapur). I guess you've flashed / updated your Bootloader or Modem to E4 / E6 FW. So now you can't go below E4. I had the same issue and it's solved, so give it an try.

It has nothing to do with the EFS Partition.

Thanks, I'm gonna try flashing back, I used to have that modem though. I'm flashing different baseband since I can't lock gps satellites anymore. Somebody said that nd3 based fixed the gps
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] HSD-Pilot:
Yeah, but unfortunately we can't go back. I tried to roll back to my default DBT NB7 FW and ended up in the same situation like you. Restored EFS Partition, flashed this zip and so on. After all failed, i decided to flash the E4 again and voila, Baseband & IMEI is back in action ;)

Baseband unknown and IMEI null

Hi, I was trying to install a different baseband version on my international N9005 (Android 4.4.2) with ODIN and it all went fine (a process that I have done a good number of times already). However, when I restarted the phone, I got into a boot loop and after wiping cache and dalvik I got the phone to start. The problem is that the phone is now showing baseband unknown and IMEI null. Just so you have the right information, I live in the UK and I originally had modem version XXUENB1, after which I have tried several others such as XXUENC2, XXUENF2, DXNE3 and ZHNE6, being the latter the last I had after trying to install version XXUENE3, which is the one that left my phone out cold.

I do my backups using Philz recovery, and I have a few EFS backups using it, which I have tried to restore with no luck. I have also tried restoring old full system backups and a brand new firmware via ODIN but I got the same result. Again, I have tried installing different baseband versions with ODIN which I know that worked, but no changes. I have tried your method but nothing either.

I am desperate, I do not know what else to try. Any ideas??

Thanks in advance.

--------------------------

I had tried flashing flash latest full UK NF4 sistembefore and it didn't work. However, desperate as I was, I went again and gave it another shot and incredibly enough, it worked!!!! Phone is back together again!!!! Yeeahh. There goes an incredible load off my shoulders.

Cheerio

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] UnboundDemon:
didnt worked, turns out the phone memory is having issues, missing imei (null/null) and no baseband, need box to fix it but where i live, is easier to sell it by parts, so the note3 is gone :( sadly
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mithudas28:
[/COLOR]

okay UnboundDemon and dreskullz

I wont be able to get your phone imie and baseband but will point you to right direction to get your phones to warranty. I have tried this myself so here it is.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52329946&nocache=1

if you guys need the file let me know I have it and can upload.

I myself haven't claimed my warranty as I live in different country than phone belongs to. but remember the CSC must be correct or they will immediately know that you have tampered with the device.

make sure if your phone is originally from Bolivia then the CSC which I don't know, should be of that and so should be the firmware.

download phone *info* Samsung from store and check your info the :

original csc and current firmware csc should match or else flash firmware in odin to put it right.

secondly if boot looping is the only problem. should solve it if you guys do a nand erase all. don't know if you guys tried it.

okay I don't know nand erase will void warranty or not. but anyway you can reset it the way I have posted above.

to solve boot loop follow the steps to the t. it should work just fine

download latest n900 any region for this purpose will do.

get ha3g PIT file. I will attach it here .

get ODIN 3.07 or 3.09 will do.

put your phone to download mode vol down + menu + power

connect your phone to pc.

open ODIN.

ODIN should show port you are connected to.

in PIT open the PIT file I attached.

in AP/PDA button your firmware.tar

select/ mark auto reboot , f reset time, nand erase all.

remember don't forget the PIT file.

after al is successful

the phone will reboot but will get stuck at Samsung logo don't panic it's okay.

go back to recover vol+ + menu +power

wipea data factory restore

cache format

reboot phone and all should be just perfect.

Warranty claim

Dear firasusman ,

I feel I have exhausted all options except this as I am not able get the specifics for sm-n900 variant. efs professional works only for snapdragon and this is exynos.:confused:

as per you guide's first part which fixes the sn I have no problem. but cant go the second part efs pfo doesn't work for exynos.... any other ideas.

another thing I live in india and this phone is from Dubai. I can get the knox fixed back to 0x0 and csc to xsg from a local guy with a box. will it be a good idea to ship it Dubai to Samsung care to fix it since more than 6 moths warranty still left. just getting pessimistic they might find some plea to return it back.

what i meant to ask is : does the service centre have some other tool that can show the device was tampered earlier or getting the KNOX to 0x0 and CSC to XSG will solve the problem.

my current device status from download mode

system binary :Samsung official

system status: official

KNOX warranty bit :0

from recovery

multi csc applied

csc appled :XSG

do you think it's good enough to send it to Dubai and ask my friend to give it to service centre.

:confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] UnboundDemon:
I reseted the knox counter, but phone is not from this country, there are no phones from this country so i have no warranty, the phone is right now without screen, since there was no way to fix it, i recovered at least a bit by selling it by parts
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] mithudas28:
LOL :laugh:

how did you manage to do that

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

well as you have done maybe you can find someone who sell you the screen.

then ship to the country of origin. like I am planning to do

Ive tried to downgrade my firmware from DXUGNH1 back to DXUFNG2 coz for some reason my wifi doesnt work using towel root and sammobile still doesnt have DXUGNH1 uploaded on their website so i cant flash its kernel to get back wifi so I decided to flash back the original ROM DXUGNH1(singapore) so it just made things worst now I dont have my baseband. I did a backup of my IMEI using EFS professional which will need root to recover my backup and another problem is I think I made a backup on DXUGNH1 not on DXUFNG2. Will this method work? Im afraid of tripping my knox if not il go ahead and root flash custom recovery and then flash the script. Ive got SM-N9005. Would really appreciate your help.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] W@r10ck:
No,mine is a different case. Its a kernel-rom/baseband combination issue.

You will have to post details if you want help, otherwise we are just guessing.

Like what recovery you have/had, Bootloader and Modem versions, what steps you did when you flashed the custom rom you said about, what rom it was and what rom you came from. How you flashed back to stock and what version. If you have previous efs backups, and much more information is needed.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] wesamothman:
There is no iemi folder. That is why ... you lost iemi data as I can see from the snapshot.

There is a little trick that might work. But dangerous.

If you have a friend who has same device. Take his folder and paste in yours and set permission.

Then factory reset.

Bro but after I flash ur test my imei folder gone & i already backup efs folder after i flash kk rom & lost imei ...

does this fix hard-bricked device?

Hi,

I'm having problems with my N9005, it's hard-bricked. Actually, using a unbrick.img SD card I can get to download mode (but nothing else works, can't flash anything with success (PASS) from Odin. I always get a mmc_read fail)

I was told to try to do a Nand erase all and then flash a EFS backup, but I don't have one :/

From reading this thread I'm inclined to try doing a nand erase all and then use this method, but I'm really confused by now and I would be so much more confident if you could tell me it would work.

Hi, this development is the best!! Maybe partially because twrp is not always correctly nandroid backup for note 3, although for sure I think this damage is caused by Samsung!! They develop Knox and try to prevent root! As to make us all have a basically basic phone with no special features and not blocking annoying ads etc. Samsung is going a little crazy in there mind! lol

I have one small question, my n900t, is damaged by aosp ROM! After install asop and then not like it because all the bugs so I put touch wiz back and now Any camera recording freeze and reboots phone. Although when I put aosp back on the camera recording works! I have tried this with 3 different note 3 phones ( one was sprint model) and 1 MetroPCS/tmobile s4 with the exact same results! Even though I tried everything except this zip to fix this issue and other people have this problem too.

1 question does the efs possibly have anything to do with the camera's ability to record? Because I want to try this zip. =) notice attached screenshots this NV rebuild (All) did nothing
