[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
Ok I was reading a LOT ....

And I think I found a solution.

I have to find block with A-key and edit it.

A-key is special number based on id hardware, imei , sn number.

I have all necessary tools ..when I find free time ( soon :p) I'll try to make it.

You are so awesome.

Nice progress..

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steeno78:
Where did you find the info and i will also give it a go. Is this to fix the carrier connection problem?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:

every time i go to use a function on this program it says i need the registered version lol
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steeno78:
im using DFS CDMA tool and it works just without the locked features. The A-key is it on the phone because when i read the link you sent me it was as if you can make one for yourself using the program to quote

" you can generate a valid 6-digit checksum for A-key, in this section. This is sometimes required for testing the phone's A-key entry function, as well as for the phone's activation. It used to be possible to obtain a valid A-key with checksum only from the cellular operator itself, now everyone can easily generate the secret checksum value, enter those numbers into the phone just using the phone's keypad. When you want to program the new A-key into the phone over the keypad, you must enter 26 digits (20 digits A-key in Dec + 6-digit checksum)"?

:confused:

No not yet but it said if the MEID code was wrong that the carrier wouldnt accept my phone but still no luck connecting yet
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adenault:
What about IMSI numbers...MCC MNC and MSIN from what I am reading it looks as if those might be required. Mine all show 0 or are blank.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steeno78:
I wouldn't worry about those, I typed *#0011# into the keypad and the mnc and stuff are there. When you insert a new sim into the phone it briefly connects to the sims service provider to obtain these settings. It's getting it to stay connected that's the problem lol

OMG ! My Phone is FULLY WORKING!!

I applied your tutorial but I didn't check the "nand erase all" box !

I also didn't used the two facultatives lines in the command. My phone booted normally, everything was fine exept the serial number but everything works without it ! I recovered it with your method by safety and now my phone is exactly as before !

Anyone can help me, please?

I was using X-NOTE rom for N9005 but I started having problems with call drops.

After that, I try reinstall the same rom and after I tried go back to stock rom but something happened.

I can install the stock rom but my cellphone still have root, I can uninstall Youtube and other programs what with the stock rom I couldn't.

Any idea?

I think with a PIT file I can solve that, but I can't find a rom with PIT file attached.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steeno78:
Is it the 32gb international N9005 you have? If so then the pit file is one the first post of this thread, use that to do a repartition of your phone by adding it to odin
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
I'm glad that I'm helped :)

Full erase nand has not effect on your imei and network , but you did not install mmcblk0p12 and 13 that's why is ok - you're lucky because I had to use them...

SN number you can restore easily just edit mmcblk0p11.

Is in the first post.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raphy511:
Yes I dis it, I am so happy! Thank you a lot, you fixed my Galaxy Note 3, thanks a lot. :D :victory:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br46:
bravo

perhaps, if Raphy511 gives us his original mmcblk0p12 and 13, which aren't overwriten,and we do the command dd with these files as if

we can find again our good files? unless these files are dedicated to the phone

I installed omega rom two days after I think that 0p10 and 0p12 are overwritten by install and not the others , 0p13 included

is the problem only with 0p13?

br46
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
My mmcblk0p12 and mmcblk0p13 are fully working but only on my fully working note 3.

On broken one not work on 100 % .

Because a-key is different.

We have to generate a new one based oh hardware number of phone - today I ill be trying to make it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
Maybe helpfull...

Can you copy mmcblk0p12 and 13 for me ?

I want to compare them with mine.

I want to be sure exactly there the keys are stored.

Or make full copy nv data by nvtools from efs proffesional

And sent on email mirek190@gmail.com

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steeno78:
The key is in mmcblk0p13 as my IMEI CERT said pass until I flashed mmcblk0p13 and now it says FAIL. So if we find how to work out the akey will that repair the IMEI CERT?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br46:
Is a_key independant from cdma rules ?

I tried to connect to cdma tools unsuccessfully

i think because i have an europeen mobile

Connect com port is ok but after mobile not known

I read that cdma is US

do you think that you find a solution usable for everybody

in the world

br46
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
first you have to sial *#0808#

and select RMNET+DM...

then connest and use nvtools.from efs professional

YES will be helpfull !

I have just one full working nvdata and yours will be helpful to compare differences between two working nvdata.

and you can make also copy mmcblk0 fro me as well ;)

In ADB - first post

- run adb commands :in CWM - mount system and extremal sd.

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/external_sd/mmcblk0p12

Your nv data has almost as mamy active books as mine working note 3.

Just different keys and checksums.

In not working note 3 I has at least 15 active block less.

Description of bloks I can find in Qualcomm QPST.

Next step will be understanding of these books and recover them...

l understand that you try to identify all the setting necessary for running of cdma tools,

giving the calculated keys

If you find a good way, buying a license of cdma tools will be necessary

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirek190:
I'm making more research ....

I noticed that apart from almost useless EFS partition on mmcblk0p11 is another EFS partition called EFSv2 in mmcblk0p12 and mmcblk0p13.

More strange is when I cleaned up EFSv2 completely my phone lost network signal - no network at all.

Then I recovered mmcblk0p12 and was the same, after recovered mmcblk0p13 still was the same.

At last helped recovered them both at the same time. Now I have network signal but my sim card still do not want to connect my carrier.

I noticed that in EFSv2 are links to data for nv items...in configuration files ...

OK I HAVE MORE CLUES - tomorrow I'll be trying AT commands to check RDM blocks...

Now I know that nv-items - EFSv2 - RDM are linked.

Waiting for SIM card and case before activating my new Nexus 5 32gb. I've been connecting to the internet on the phone through local wifi.

The phone was at 4.4.0 when I received it. It was/is stock, un-rooted.

When attempting to use the camera app, it was giving an message about not having a sd card (?huh?) and wouldn't let me take a picture most of the time. When it would occasionally let me take a picture, it would write a solid gray image that the gallery couldn't open (it would give an error message). I was able to get Cymera to take pics and work.

I side-loaded 4.4.1 to the camera and the stock camera worked and Cymera stopped working.

When the 4.4.2 update came out, I side-loaded the update. The camera is currently stock, un-rooted, with no sim card.

I used the camera app to take a bunch of pictures about 15 mins ago. I used the camera app and also took some pics with Camera fv-5 lite and with GIF camera.

I just looked at the images in the gallery and the images taken by the camera app are all solid grey and they can be opened by the gallery. The images taken by Camera fv-5 lite and GIF camera are all fine.

After seeing this, I then took a pic through the camera app and it wrote and viewed fine.
