It makes a difference, to what extent I'm unclear.

I think that that you may need to do a complete nuking of your entire internal and external cards, or at least pull the external prior to doing the one-click.

AOSP roms were hewn from that which resided on our phones at the time they were originally released, that being 4.3.

You're upgrading to TouchWiz KitKat, and you may have traces of the old OS spread across your device.

One wouldn't think that, but I'm unfamiliar with AOSP roms, so I'm merely using inductive thinking.

Perhaps one with knowledge of those roms could weigh in on this.

Thank you for the help btw. How would you recommend going about a full wipe. The last time I just used twrp advanced wipe and selected everything
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
You do that, and then flash the one-click. Sorry if I didn't answer sooner, but you didn't quote me, so I wasn't notified via email that you asked something.

You'll have to reroot, and reinstall TWRP, but you'll be back in business in no time.

It's my understanding that once you're on TouchWiz KitKat, you'll be able to go back and forth from AOSP to TouchWiz with ease, but the first time it's this or nothing.

I hope this helps.

Update: So I nuked my phone (removed sd card, wiped every check box possible, even hit format data), and used rwilco's one click (redownloaded a new copy). Good news is the error messages I was receiving stopped as did the random reboots. Bad news is I still have no service... Anyone have anything that might help me out? At this point i'm using wifi/google voice to text and skype to call, but it kinda defeats the purpose of a cell phone when I can only use it at home/work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
You need to contact Sprint and have them reactivate your phone, or at the very least update PRL and profile.

You should have data back within fifteen minutes, as that's how much time it takes for it to propagate throughout their network.

Sounds as if somehow your MEID has been taken off of the grid.

Well I work for radioshack and logged into snap for my account, everything looks good on that end. And they can't push my PRL if I'm not even receiving a signal. I'll try manually pushing my service and see if anything happens on my phone. It's got to be either my kernel or modem I'll take a ss of my phone status and post it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DEEBS808:
This happened to me after flashing over team blaze ROM. I thought it was the ROM so I flashed over my back up and still nothing. Ended up flash back to stock and still didn't get any signal. Dialed the ## code and got stuck inside the hands free activation screen and I'm still stuck on that screen. Can't update my prl or profile. I need to force stop it for it to stop. Called Customer Service THE Did Their Thing And Got It to work but I still get the activation screen. But force close still works.

Use the tar provided by freeza, for this one situation, there is a small chance the one-click is not getting you there.

Bad EFS...

OK, from what I've read, it looks like at least one of the two of you, or both, has a bad EFS.

This is been reported working on KitKat TouchWiz ROMS.

Reports in the thread are mixed, but most say yes it works.

Symptoms that indicate a bad EFS include MEID gone, S/N gone, unknown baseband...the stuff as in the screenshots provided earlier in this thread.

You can TRY this; I can't promise anything, but it may be a swifter route than restoring your EFS backup from TWRP.

Please read this thread in it's entirety before deciding if you wish to do this. Just as nothing good can be hindered by taking time, but something done in hot haste that you otherwise wouldn't do upon calm reflection, I urge you each to read the thread and draw your own conclusion. But, there is a possibility that this little file can fix your ixssues swiftly and completely.

Good luck!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DEEBS808:
I will look into this. Ive tried everything and Sprint CSA tried to help but that DAMN Handsfree Screen still pops up.Thanks and will report back if I do decide to try it

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jkao42:
I hate to sound like such a noob but i'm treading very lightly and clinging on to my note 3 for dear life, so do you think it would be better to flash using cwm or twrp for that fix. Also, would it make a difference if i had engineering bootloader and then did one click? And as a last resort, would odin flashing the efs from a backup possibly do anything?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kaos420:
silly question i know im late to the party. but when you guys were flashing stock via odin. you did do it with sd card removed as well as a full wipe from stock recovery before proceeding to root or flash another recovery right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jkao42:
Yes i removed the sd card and did a clean wipe. any suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] damastah:
You should flash the MJ4 modem . I posted it in the development thread
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jkao42:
I tried that tonight with no success. I still didn't have any signal and in fact kept making my phone restart every 5 min. I ended up reflashing the NAB modem that was posted which made the restarting stop but no change from before. I'm pretty sure at this point my EFS was erased somehow, and I have 4 EFS files from TWRP backups but i have no idea how to restore them. Can anyone guild me in the right direction?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] honest1212:
I was in the same boat where I was not getting any network. Tried flashing both the modems, resets, flashing full tar but man your trick save my day!

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] NxlKing2304:
Sorry for being a noob, which i'm not really. What is EFS? I am having same issue. I'm using Vision X Rom which is NC5. Tried to Odin flash NC5 modem, and nothing.

If I am correct in saying this, if you have NC5 ROM you should have NC5 kernel as well as modem right? I can reflash to stock NAB and I have service and no problems. I am looking for NC5 with Wi-Fi Calling and as close to stock as possible, without all of the bloat and other garbage. As I type this I have VisionX Installed, with Unknown Baseband, and PRL, etc.

[MENTION=5244502]micmars[/MENTION]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
No Problem...

OK, you have nothing that can't be readily fixed. Please note that your EFS is something you should back up once, stick a copy of it on your hard disk, throw up a copy onto Dropbox, just go nuts.. You can back it up in TWRP and be done with it. When backing it up, just select EFS and nothing else. You needn't worry about what it is (a Google search can give you all you need to know...just know that having a backup of it is both critical and something you do once, irrespective of the OS).

Now, as to your issue....there are two ways to get to NC5-based ROMs (that would include ViSiON-X, both of which assume you are already on a TouchWiz KitKat rom (ie, NAB)...pick one of the routes below and follow them in the sequence I've lain:

1. Flash NC5 Engineering bootloader (PC Odin), then NC5 modem (PC Odin), then rom (recovery); OR

2. Flash NC5 full stock tar (PC Odin), then rom (recovery)

If you are NOT on both the bootloader and modem, you will have no baseband if on an NC5-based rom.

Note that it appears that [MENTION=3802385]TheAxman[/MENTION] will be uploading a new build sometime soon...perhaps already has...so getting the above items locked and loaded will get you one step toward that which you need.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

Besides that the guy with the radio issues did you ever get it to work again ? i swear it was not until i messed around with trying to upgrade to kitkat that my note 3 signal when dead using that one click odin full restore not that im saying its bad but maybe i did something wrong but i cant figure it out. oh and i did full wipe and reset and removed sd card and still nada.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] philcurious:
was your knox counter tripped and do you have insurance on it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jkao42:
Sorry for the late response. I actually had to do this twice. Both times my knox was tripped. First time i did not have insurance, but I worked for Radioshack at the time so my sprint rep pulled some strings for me. Basically we just sent it back and didn't say anything, sprint never checked and just gave me a new phone. Second time i put insurance on my account, waited 30 days then made sure that my phone would not turn back on *wink wink* and sent it in for a new one. I do not recommend following any of my advice as I do not recommending breaking your phone, in most cases they will not help you.

If you want good advice, do not call samsung as they will check the knox flag first and just send it back to you. Go into a local sprint store or service shop and be VERY VERY nice and VERY VERY patient. If they will allow you to put insurance on your account, that is your best route. In my experience sprint has always been more than willing to help you out. I would go with a story like you were updating your phone with Kies and it failed, act stupid. Remember to flash to stock before any of this.

This should be your last resort, try flashing the stock rom first. Then try flashing mc5 modem, that fixed a bunch of my problems. Good luck sir, and remember being friendly will always get you further with customer service than being a jerk

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Commodore 64:
Skyrocket has the following frequency bands:

3G NetworkHSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100

4G NetworkLTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100

After some searches I found 900/1800 MHz bands work for Bosnia so you're out of luck as far as your 3G or LTE.

You should lock the phone on 2G network and that should give you solid/uninterrupted signal.

Go to settings -> mobile networks -> Network operators

It will scan for a while keep the screen on until it finishes scanning the local networks. Choose your carrier from the list. Once it is accepted go back to Network Modes and change it to GSM.

Good luck

So I got cyanogenmod for my phone, never really had an android so thought id have a play around and I needed it for mirroring on the screen in my car, but I HATE it! So i followed some online tutorials to get it back to stock, now my phone is stuck in the bootloader saying its tamerped and relocked, I have downloaded some apparent .ruu files, however, when following online tutorials there is no .exe in the file? Just a Meta-Inf folder, a system folder and a boot.img ... I just want my old phone back! Sorry if this is nooby, didn't no where else to ask. Thanks for your help!!

Relax. Now there are a few ROMs which are exactly the same as the stock HTC rom, but with more features. The ROM is based on HTC Sense 5.5 and KitKat, the same which you would see on ur One.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
You need to be a bit careful, before you end up doing something really wrong:

"Just a Meta-Inf folder, a system folder and a boot.img" -> that's a custom/stock ROM.zip flashable through custom recovery (TWRP or CWM), it is NOT a ruu.

start by posting a "fastboot getvar all" (excluding IMEI and s/n), and do you need to go back to full stock, or is a custom ROM OK too?

1) Ya, ok. First u'll have to unlock the bootloader again.

2) Go to the Android Development page, which will give u a list of ROMs. Download any one which you like

3) You will most likely have a proper booting Cyanogenmod after the bootloader unlock. If not, you will need to use ADB sideload from CWM/TWRP. Tutorial is mentioned here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2559200

4) If you have a proper booting CM(Cyanogenmod), then transfer the Sense ROM which you downloaded to ur Internal Storage. If its still not booting, adb sideload the ROM zip to the internal storage from the link ive sent

5) Wipe the data, cache, dalvik cache and system in CWM/TWRP. Flash the ROM zip which u downloaded. Choose the wipe option in the Aroma installer. Let it install
