[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karachii:
There are a numerous threads on xda about it, and I have spent a lot of time researching. However, I am afraid to mess it up even more.

Chronology of the events

1. International Note 2 sent for warranty repair.

2. For some reason I have been given a new ROM on my phone, from Three.

3. Later (more than 90 days after the warranty) the sim card stopped working. Not registered on network. (but internet worked)

4. I had no time to deal with it, had a plane to Moscow the day after. The phone worked fine with Moscow networks.

5. Came back here, decided to try fixing it. Installed CM10.2. Tried Ariza Patch. No result or outcome. Tried patching different modem. (due to my utter stupidity did not write it down.

6. Patched original firmware from Sam Mobile back on the phone. Rooted it. Tried Ariza Patch again. Killed my IMEI.

7. Tried restoring EFS. The files were copied back to /efs, but still no IMEI.

8. Formated /efs, and did it again using different solutions. Manually, through terminal, through other programs.

9. It comes out from the factory mode OK... files appear to be in /efs OK.. IMEI and other stuff remains unclear.

10. Ordered a new sim card (same operator GiffGaff (O2)) no luck.

I ran out of my insurance claims, and I have a nice chopping board, which I can't use for anything. I really wish someone could help me. I am very tired of that sh**, spent a lot of time, and looks like only made it worse. Is there a set of actions which are known to work in order to.

1. Restore IMEI/EFS

2. Restore my ability to make calls.

I would be very grateful, and if one lives near by London/Cambridge/Oxford/Moscow area, can rely on me buying him a nice cold pint of beer.

Thank you very much,

Hope everyone's getting more fun this friday, than I am.

You better download a 4.1 firmware from sammobile.com and flash it through PC Odin.

Regards.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karachii:
Aha! I saw their original thread, but not this one. Original was a total mess. Are you sure it is ok to do it for 4.1.2? Or did you made a mistake? How would my absence of IMEI be affected by upgrading to a new firmware from Sam Mobile? It says all over the thread, that this is for working IMEI only. My IMEI is unavailable.

I am a newcomer to Android, and still in the process of early stages of learning.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nitol:
Once I've faced same while I was in 4.1 and installing a firmware from sammobile solved it. You don't need to upgrade, download a 4.1.2 firmware for your region and flash it through Odin, hope you know how to flash through odin on pc.

Regards.

On Monday January 27th, we’re kicking off our Valentine’s Day sale with an extra sweet deal: $100 off any #MotoX without a contract from 3pm-4pm ET. This deal is only available for one hour, while supplies last. If you miss out, don’t worry. You can get $70 off any #MotoX without a contract through Valentine’s Day.*﻿
[Moto X General] ap3604:
So $299?

Holy ****! :eek:

Thanks for the heads up... now please take this thread down to keep the word from getting out so there's a greater chance we get on Jan 27th ;)
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
Haha.. I just got the ebony back with the $50 off coupon but this is sweet.
[Moto X General] fury683:
Dang. My roommate just bought one like a week ago. He will not be happy. Wonder if Moto rill refund him, or give him a coupons like they have for others.
[Moto X General] spencer88:
He can get a refund... that's probably what I'm going to do.
[Moto X General] x2h:
I bought my MOTO X in December. Will them give me a refund?
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
If you are outside your return period, I don't think they will do anything. May be they will give you a coupon code for accessories if you call.
[Moto X General] x2h:
How long is return period? One month or three? When I buy things at Target, it's three months. :D
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
Lol.. It's not 3 months. It's either 15 or 30 days.
[Moto X General] x2h:
Lol. Oh well.
[Moto X General] blueice5249:
I just bought mine today :eek:. I already had to cancel the order and then re-order it the next day because Motorola screwed something up :(. They gave me a free case and $50 off to make up for it.

If I have to cancel and order this phone for a third efffing time just to save the other $50 I'm going to be super pissed.
[Moto X General] Neogx:
Nice! Its on my birthday and I been debating on nexus 5 or motox and since the motox is now cheaper this is my own birthday present! Not sure if it would also work on that 50 off discount someone posted awhile ago hmmm...
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
For the "limited time" Cyber Monday and Wednesday offer, Moto was NOT refunding the difference if you purchased your X "recently", even if it was during the return period.

There was a thread here on XDA where multiple users posted that when they contacted Moto about a price adjustment due to having recently purchased the X, they were instructed they would have to do a return/repurchase type thing... (Or just purchase one at the "limited promo price" and return the originally purchased one due to how long the RMA and credit process takes).

Since Motorola Mobility also replied in the comments to that post "It will be promo codes like the holiday sale. You will need to register on Motorola.com and the code will be emailed to you.﻿" I expect this will be the same.
[Moto X General] detonation:
$350 for a developer edition is very tempting.
[Moto X General] cipsaz:
Damn, Motorola isn't playing nicely. Just shows how they jacked up the release price. The $599 phone can be had for $299 now. Shameless Motorola, no respect for early adopters.
[Moto X General] Maverick0984:
I assumed this was for the regular version only. If the dev edition gets $100 off though, that'd be nice, but it won't be $300.
[Moto X General] Mayze23:
The phone is 5 months old. Do you expect the price to stay the same forever?
[Moto X General] cipsaz:
Yes until the new X is released.
[Moto X General] detonation:
Forgot the dev edition was 32gb only, so $350. But it is included: https://twitter.com/Motorola/status/426869667290820608
[Moto X General] livefree79:
So I'm gonna be in the market for a new phone in a few weeks. I'm gonna miss this price drop. But would you say the moto x is still a viable option. I'm torn between this and the n5. But I like this phones feature better and I do lots of driving and I don't want always have to touch my phone while driving. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
[Moto X General] mmikeee:
so I wanted to try out the prepaid $30 tmobile service with this moto x, but I'm on verizon and would ideally like to get a vzw moto x so if tmobile doesn't work out, I can still use the phone and sell my s3. Does anyone WITH a vzw moto x have any problems putting in a tmobile sim and getting things to work, including LTE? I've been reading through forums and posts and it seems like people can definitely get tmobile service to work and some can get LTE as well BUT they can't call when they're on LTE? Can anyone confirm this?
[Moto X General] im_thebestin:
If any one can answer me, m planing to get one MOTO X without contract, but will be using it in other country (UAE) etisalat network. Will it be OK, or it needs only the US mobile carriers ???
[Moto X General] tgerbracht:
Post if you going an answer to this. I think calls and sms bugged.
[Moto X General] alpha-niner64:
What country are you from?
[Moto X General] Konno_Yuuki:
Couple this with the $50 coupon I have and te Moto X is becoming more and more tempting for me to buy.
[Moto X General] x2h:
Can you combine them?
[Moto X General] Konno_Yuuki:
I would hope so. If the sale tomorrow works like most sites, it will be automatic, so I should be able to apply a coupon code no problem. There's only one way to find out for sure though and that's to try tomorrow.
[Moto X General] x2h:
I see. Good luck tomorrow!
[Moto X General] im_thebestin:
I am from UAE Dubai, willing to use it on Etisalat network.
[Moto X General] prasathvishnu:
I checked with Moto Care. This is not a direct price cut. You have to register to get your Promo Code which you can apply during check out. So, at a time, you cannot apply two promo codes. For now, $299 is going to be our best deal.

I bought one for $349 with Today Show Promo Code. I am within my return period and I asked if I can be compensated with $50 credit. I was told that since I already got one discount earlier, I cannot get further credit. The only other option is return it and order it again which I may not do.

---------- Post added at 01:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

I got one for India. I got it confirmed with Moto Care chat that that it should work with any GSM provider. I am going to get it today and positive that it will work. :)
[Moto X General] im_thebestin:
Hopefully, best of luck, i too checked with moto care live chat agent, one said it will work, but the other said it support certain frequencies, so if the carrier is on tht frequency than no prob, but if not than it wont work.
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
Well phone calls and 3G, it will work on all gsm carriers since Moto X unlocked is penta band. It's the LTE which you got to verify what frequency bands your carrier uses. If you don't care about LTE you are all good.
[Moto X General] im_thebestin:
My Carrier (Etisalat) supports 1800, 2600 frequency for LTE. will it be ok for moto x ???
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
I don't think it supports. Unlocked model is the XT1053 and it only supports lte bands 2, 4 and 17.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moto_X
[Moto X General] im_thebestin:
Ok, so that means, if i get a moto x contract free through motomaker.com, than it will be XT1053 and it will not support LTE with my carrier frequency.

But the same model will be working with 3g and HSPA network else where in the world right ??? i mean i will not have any problem using it on 3g and HSPA frequencies or it will be a dead phone outside USA ???
[Moto X General] tadiboy:
MOTO X

Hi..

I am planning to buy an unlocked version through motomaker US website and hope it will work here in INDIA? Whats your comments.. Thanks!
[Moto X General] Konno_Yuuki:
After chatting with a Motorola, I was able to confirm a few things. It look like you may not be able to combine two codes. But after chatting with Marquese, I should be able to use the $50 code I have during the the $70 off period. That's $120 off (though $150 would have been a bit sweeter).
[Moto X General] cpuspeed:
all you need to know.

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/98260/action/auth

basically during the promo today you register for a $30 off promo code because the regular price is being dropped by $70 through 2/14. so if you already have a $50 off promo code you can use it instead once the $70 drop happens,
[Moto X General] Cheeze[iT]:
Hope this is the case
[Moto X General] mmikeee:
yup the code you sign up for will be $30 off and the phone will be $329 starting at 1pm pacific so those with the friends of moto $50 code should wait until 1pm so they can get $70+$50 = $120 instead of $70+$30=$100
[Moto X General] Konno_Yuuki:
Oh, look, they updated their FAQ page. I still had a tab that I had loaded earlier. Motorola must have added that part.
[Moto X General] Maverick0984:
If anyone has a "Moto Friends" code they aren't going to use, I'd gladly give you a few bucks for it :)
[Moto X General] waxlabo:
is shipping going to be free?
[Moto X General] x2h:
The web site is jammed

We are currently experiencing high volumes.

Please try again later.

Thank you for you patience.
[Moto X General] dirtysox:
I'm registered. It says I'll have my code "In a few hours".
[Moto X General] x2h:
I got it too now.
[Moto X General] sonofevil77:
Got my code Woot! Now do I get a customized one or developer edition? Ugh I can't make up my mind.

2013 N7 Kang Banged!
[Moto X General] porkrynd:
Woot...Got It!
[Moto X General] ap3604:
Me too :-/

Decisions decisions...
[Moto X General] detonation:
You guys got the actual $100 promo code, not just the registered email? When does it expire?
[Moto X General] Maverick0984:
I only have the register email so far, no code yet.
[Moto X General] detonation:
Actually I just got my code. It's good for a week (2/3/14 11:59pm)
[Moto X General] x2h:
Just got my code too. Expires in a week.
[Moto X General] Maverick0984:
As others have said, got my code at 3:23PM CST. Originally requested at 2:10PM CST.
[Moto X General] danger2u:
got the code

it s valid one week

i someone is interested i sell it for a little

pm me
[Moto X General] YankInDaSouth:
I've got an extra code if anyone needs it (registered for a buddy that had to work but has since changed his mind) PM me if interested

Note 3 .... that is all!!
[Moto X General] xaos11:
I have an extra code but found that it might not be so easy to share the codes:

From the FAQ

Was anybody able to use the second code to checkout as a guest with different contact information?
[Moto X General] ericshmerick:
PM it to me and I'll give it a shot. Looking for a code since I was busy with work at 1pm (Pacific) and they were all gone at 1:12pm :( when I checked.
[Moto X General] bryancotton84:
Ordered the Dev edition. Did anyone else get the email stating "due to high demand ship times may be 7 days." But then in the same email the order says it will ship in 2 business days? Which is it?
[Moto X General] YankInDaSouth:
I got the same ... I just took it as, when it does ship it will be 2 day shipping ... I could be (and hope I'm) wrong
[Moto X General] TheRaven65:
I got the same message and understood it the same way... may take up to 7 days before they can get it out the door... and then it'll take 2 days to get to your house. I sure hope they can do it quicker than that. I could understand the delay with the custom MotoMaker models, but the Developer Editions are all the same. Seems like they could have had them stockpiled for this sale and ready to ship.
[Moto X General] YankInDaSouth:
Yeah, I am hoping that this is a general message they threw on all emails and that those of us who ordered the dev edition would get shipping emails sooner ...
[Moto X General] bryancotton84:
I figured that was the case, just wanted to make sure. Hopefully we have them by Friday! lol
[Moto X General] cw18306:
Ordered two close to 2 weeks ago. They arrived within 2 days. Having to RMA them to get the credit/discount, which sucks and is stupid on their part. They have to pay for my return shipping, pay for processing and shipping my "new" phones, and have two "B" stock phones! All they would have to do is refund me $200, let me keep my phones I already have and be done with it! :eek:
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
Agree.. Not sure why they just don't refund the people who are within return period. Don't do by default, but if someone calls and says they will return just refund and be done with.
[Moto X General] prasathvishnu:
Yes, LTE when introduced in India, it won't work most probably. But, 3G should work fine. :)

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 AM ----------

Yes, when I explained them with the same point, there was no proper response. All I was asked to do was, to return it and order it again. :(

---------- Post added at 02:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 AM ----------

Yesterday, I registered for Sweet deal and got the $30 Promo code. So, total $100 off. This WORKS.

Last week, I got $50 Off promo code through Moto Friends. Till yesterday, I was able to apply the code and get the price down to $349.

But, Now, after the price slashed by $70 already, the $50 Promo code works no more.

So, I guess the best price for now is going to be $299 :) If any one was able to use the $50 off promo Code and get total $120 off, let me know.
[Moto X General] evltwn72:
Seeing how this $70 price cut + $30 coupon discount is only temporary, I'm betting those Friends Of Moto $50 discount codes should work after Valentines Day. The Friends Of Moto $50 discount code is good until July I believe. At least that's what mine says. I did try to apply both discount codes, but it wouldn't take the $50 code.

Here's an extra code if anyone needs it. It's good until 11:59pm EST on 2/3/14. VDayX-FZOV-3YKH-TN2G-4ZDX
[Moto X General] phositadc:
I got an email that my custom X is already being built. Ordered yesterday around 315pm est. got the email saying it's being built at like 2 am lol.
[Moto X General] kirdroid:
They will ship it tomorrow. I got my ebony back in 3 days. Ordered last Tuesday, got building email Wednesday and then shipping email on Thursday.
[Moto X General] beelbeel:
Edited...

False alarm. I thought that I could not order a wooden phone due to the restock date. I was unable to order out of stock items yesterday, but it worked today.
[Moto X General] YankInDaSouth:
WTH! I ordered the developer edition ... Damn thing is ALREADY built and I got nothing LOL :p

Note 3 .... that is all!!
[Moto X General] scorneil:
I have a code, turns out I'm not going to use it. 1st to PM me can have it.

update: already gone
[Moto X General] phositadc:
Well for what it's worth I haven't gotten a shipping notice yet so dev editions may be the first out the door in the end. :)
[Moto X General] reno55:
I am hoping for that also as it said in Stock plus you get the 2 day free shipping...
[Moto X General] Johmama:
Man, this is really good news. I partook in the Cyber Monday deal and got a Dev Edition for $400 and thought I was getting a steal. Looks like they'll have sales quite a bit with this device. Good news. Heck, the only reason I got a Moto X is because of that deal. I'm not saying the Moto X isn't a great device, I just never even considered it, simply because I just swapped my SIM card from my Nexus 4 to my Nexus 5 right before they announced the Cyber Monday deal and I already have enough phones. I thought I'd give it a whirl though for $400, and if I don't like it, I can sell it for a small loss on Swappa. I guess if Motorola keeps undercutting the prices on Swappa, I'll have to keep it.

Dang it guys! I have to keep my Moto X now! Darn you Motorola!! :laugh:
[Moto X General] kenypowa:
I have a code. First one to respond in

public

gets it. :D
[Moto X General] Rdotyung:
I have a $300 promo code I picked up for someone who decided not to use it.

I'll give it to the first person who asks for it from me on here either DM or quote and I'll shot it over to your email.
[Moto X General] YankInDaSouth:
SHIP DAMN YOU!!!!!!

Note 3 .... that is all!!
[Moto X General] tatltael:
I'd like that code if its still available ^^
[Moto X General] Rdotyung:
You got it I'll shoot you a DM
[Moto X General] bryancotton84:
I refresh the page constantly waiting... Lol

I think we'll get a email before anything else though, anyone confirm that?
[Moto X General] TypoCorrecto:
I ordered soon after receiving the code yesterday (Ebony) and I just received a tracking number...

Scheduled for delivery tomorrow but I have a feeling it will be delayed because of all the ice down here in SE Louisiana...

Fingers crossed...
[Moto X General] bryancotton84:
What time was your order placed?
[Moto X General] sonofevil77:
I wish mine would just ship already! I'm anxious lol. Has anyone's shipped?

Damn, good for you!

I don't understand how my "in stock" dev edition hasn't shipped yet :eek: :confused:

It may have to do with locale...

Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana probably get the quickest shipments...

Well would you look at that! Just got a text from FedEx ... While it doesn't say WHAT package, I haven't ordered anything else. (still no email from Motorola nor an order status change when I check)

Hopefully Metro ATL gets the roads back in order so it doesn't screw up my delivery LOL

Up here in MN and I just got the Shipping Confirmation with Tracking Number for FedEx. Will be delivered 1/30/14 as well. Finally, good bye Samsung Galaxy Suck 4.
[Moto X General] ericshmerick:
My white bamboo w/yellow accents is still being built. Estimated delivery Monday the 3rd. Hope it ships tomorrow for Friday.
[Moto X General] TheRaven65:
Congrats! Does your order status on Moto's site say "Shipped"?

I ordered a DevEd yesterday at 4:03 EST (as soon as they sent the promo code to me) . It was listed as "in stock". My order status on the Moto site is still "Not Shipped" and I haven't received any further email from them or FedEx. Here's to hoping.
[Moto X General] overthatscreen:
The email included the tracking number and it was a direct link to the FedEx page with it all pulled up for me.

But this is a screen shot of the website.
[Moto X General] bryancotton84:
Mine has shipped!! Should get it the 30th!
[Moto X General] TheRaven65:
Awesome.... Thanks for that screen grab, "overthatscreen". I noticed that your DevEd is a GSM version. Has anyone received a shipping notice for a Verizon DevEd?

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

DAMMIT!!! False alarm! I JUST received an email from Motorola and thought for sure it was my shipping notice... but it was a freaking promo for the "Sweet Deal" sale of $70 off for a Moto X. Don't they know I already BOUGHT one?!?!?
[Moto X General] Konno_Yuuki:
I ordered my custom Moto X yesterday during the promo. Motorola be makin' my phone now. (Hehe)
[Moto X General] koftheworld:
In nj, and I got my shipping notification late tonight with delivery by late Thursday. I ordered a gsm dev edition btw.
[Moto X General] TheRaven65:
Who hoo! Got my shipping notice! Scheduled delivery by 8:00 pm Thursday! I'm in SC and ordered a VZW DevEd.

However... we're currently in the middle if a winter storm - which we RARELY get down here. This disclaimer was on the tracking page: "Severe winter weather is causing delays and disruptions in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic U.S."

Ugggh... I hope they can get it here.
