[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techyrock:
Hey there bud I have almost tried most of fixes I could I'll give Smart Switch a try as I recall I checked before it didn't have initialization just the recovery mode, while in Kies 3 I did try initialization method by model and SN but it prompted device doesn't support initialization

Anyways do you think it could fix network?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
Maybe restore the efs from recovery, if you have a backup that was working.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techyrock:
Jist checked not getting initialization option on smart switch ill see a work around it if its a version thing , as for working backup I lost it mate it was in twrp folder in phone storage it got wiped recovery softwares out there only help recovering media mostly if mass storage mount was option could have tried recovering for PC but that has been long gone since ICS :(
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VannM:
Yep. Same problem as mine. Im kinda lost now since i dont have anything; even in stock rom it cannot go beyond connecting to my carrier. It only able to read my contact.

Im guessing its a motherboard problem? Isnt it [MENTION=8418150]w41ru5[/MENTION]?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
I don't know. Usually it's a modem issue when not recognizing the sim.

If it's a 910F snapdragon it might be the infamous eMMC issue.

If you have an EFS backup try to restore it from recovery TWRP.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VannM:
Assuming its modem problem, its related to motherboard i guess, right?

Finally got the phone working, only to discovered that SIM not working. Really wasting my time and hype!

Plus, its hard to search for n910c replacement board here.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
The firmware, not the physical one.

Did you try to flash the 4 files repair firmware?

This is an example, I don't know what phone you have

https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=7081

Did you try the SmartSwitch pc program?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VannM:
"...4 file repair..."- what? Ive google it until im almost run out of data here and you have a possible solution? You must be active in note4 forum.

One thing i noticed that, the IMEI and Serial Number are different from the sticker included.

I will try it, but not immediately; waiting for thurday-friday for data renewal.

My phone is n910c

EDIT : just checked the page you gave. I have few question;

What should i do with the files? What are the step? What are the program needed?

Is it related to SmartSwitch as you mention; need to use it?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
1. It's good you still have the IMEI. Not so important if they're different from the sticker. Where did you buy the phone from?

2. So if you go to check the 4 files repair, you need to search on that site the files for a 910C.

3. Did the phone worked on your country provider? If yes, maybe you need to search for the 4files corresponding to your region code.

4. These 4files have to be flashed with Odin

https://zfirmware.com/download-samsung-repair-firmwares/

5. SmartSwitch is an alternative to get the latest firmware for your phone according with the model and serial number.

https://www.sammobile.com/forum/threads/29914-SmartSwitch-Install-amp-update-or-replace-firmware
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VannM:
the "firmware.gem" are useless. the error says i need another package (i assume a quota) to download the needed files.

im currently testing "zfirmware", but have a doubt since it only give 1 type file (which country is it i dunno). but yeah, since my phone like that, it wouldnt hurt to try

EDIT : yep, nothing changed. the device not even bricked.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
If something does not work, why do you give up so easy?

http://www.mediafire.com/file/a2fdo0xm9nat5jt/N910CXXS2DPJ3_N910CZTO2DPE2_ZTO.zip - this is marshmallow

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087001472 - this is for lolipop

Put the phone in download mode, open Odin and try.

And try the smartswitch also.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VannM:
That hurts. A lot. Explanation below.

I tried files from LP and MM. It didnt work. And also smartswitch.

I was hoping that it will brick the phone (if i ever missed a step or incorrect file) but it didnt.

Might as well try looking for replacement board (or even a refurbished note4).

Thanks though for the suggestion [MENTION=8418150]w41ru5[/MENTION]!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techyrock:
Greetings again folks reading your replies above I have been trying almost every fix there is out there

First of all about Emergency Calls Only/Not Registered on Network

It can be due to several causes its can be Hardware ie faulty modem

it can be bad network coverage

it can be bad simcard

it can be SW with EFS problems or maybe even on rare occasion a modem file that you flashed

EFS can be either bad IMEI with CERT : FAIL or Just Network with IMEI and SN intact

just dial *#0011*# and see if you have CERT : PASS ( also someone with good IMEI/CERT and working network can share screenshot so i can compare whats wrong)

I am certain mine is EFS related because it happened after flashing modem DPCB modem via ODIN (I had TWRP EFS backup but the blunder I made was backing it up on phone storage and being careless forgot it was there and was wiped for custom ROM flashing process)

So far what I have tried

Combination File Method (and even downgrade to KK 4.4.4 )

Repair Firmware that include AP,BL,CP,CSC and even PIT

Kies 3 or Older Smart Switch says (Device doesn't support initialization ) since initialization feature was removed by Samsung on newer Smartswitch(since it was being used for wrong reasons? read somewhere)

Several different firmware's

OTA update

My IMEI CERT says PASS if only we had a network patch like Ariza Patch (for Galaxy S3) for Note 4 then we would be in luck so far at this point I dont think flashing ROM's would even help with bad EFS our only luck is Box e.g Z3x or Octo dont know if we are allowed to talk about those here (ill edit post if not)

these box applications have Network Patch for most Samsung models but I don't see one for N910C in most versions

for those with bad IMEI they can try writing good cert or efs on note 4 since they have already lost it I am sitting on it because my EFS is good on that part and for some reason box app isnt allowing me to back up my CERT if I am able to back up current cert then ill give those a try but I would prefer current IMEI since in my country IMEI should be verified to use the phone or you have to pay tax

I know its Bad EFS for sure because using Box application I chose reset EFS(after backing up current faulty EFS with good IMEI) upon reboot phone's imei was changed with no SN network came back for few seconds then gone again ,this happened to many users that have tried resetting EFS so I restored my original EFS

if anyone here with N910C and root can give me EFS folder I can corelate if any file required for network is missing since i have good IMEI

Cheers!

I have a very basic understanding of getting back to stock firmware on the HTC U11. What I am stuck on is how do I know which RUU to choose? I went the the spreadsheet where all of the RUUs are at and none of them match my exact software version, but there are a handfull with my CID; HTC__001. My software version is 2.33.401.19. So how would I go about choosing the correct one? Does it matter which one I use to flash as long as they have the same CID? Thanks in advance

Looks like stock pie is available on proteammt.ru which i heard only posts approved firmware so i downloaded it, i already installed pie using beta flashy tool but it does something using nocheck recovery and i want a full stock, so how can i update the newer firmware i downloaded, thank you.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] revjamescarver:
Pie Update

There is only one build of pie available for the BLA-A09 phone, and that is probably the build you already have installed, the one on proteammt.ru is the same build as the one on firmware finder (depends on your imei if it is approved or not). When pie gets installed it will overwrite the existing recovery on your device with the one from the pie build so you should get any future updates OTA. (There are no custom recoveries for pie as of yet)

Hi,

I received today my phone, I updated to Android Pie, and now I see that I cannot discover my TV which supports miracast. I also tried to switch off Wlan.

Of course I considered downgrading to Android Oreo, but I read it's a bit troublesome (dual sim stops working when downgrading).

By the way I'm asking to xioami forums too (I cannot post external link), but I don't think I can expect a fast fix :(

Any idea? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] moromindful:
Hello samsung gurus! I think I've bricked my phone :(

A few days ago I tried flashing a custom rom (didn't even get to that part but that was my goal).

I was on DBT XXU2CSA2 with XXU2CRTL so I tried flashing other stock roms (only XXU2) via download mode with Odin 3.13.1 and it didn't work it said something like Custom binaries are not allowed to be flashed due to KG locked (BOOTLOADER).

Then I entered recovery and made a factory reset and selected reboot to bootloader and when I tried to flash a rom (stock XEU XXU2ARJ1) it worked ... now I went and enabled the developer mode ... checked OEM Unlock which restarted my phone ... enabled usb debugging because I was preparing for flashing twrp.

Put the phone in recovery and choose reboot to bootloader after that I flashed twrp and then it booted into it.

I was going to flash Dr.Ketan rom and after I downloaded the files I saw that there was a file BL_N960FXXU2CSA2_CP_N960FXXU2CRLT_extract_this_first.zip so I thought that I need to flash that first so I rebooted my phone from twrp pressed vol down + bixby which got me directly into download mode and flashed the bl and cp from odin and this is where all ended :( it didn't work as it said :

All binaries are not allowed to be flashed due to KG Locked. (RADIO)

And when I restarted my phone the only thing that appears on the screen is: Custom binary blocked due to remaining installment balance. Even when I plug the charger in I get this message and no charger animation :( So now I can't boot intro recovery because I flashed twrp .. and when I boot in download mode anything that I try to flash ends with the message:

All binaries are not allowed to be flashed due to KG Locked.

When I boot in download mode I get the following details:

PRODUCT NAME: SM-N960F

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

KG STATE: LOCKED

FRP LOCK: OFF

OEM LOCK: OFF

Secure Download: Enabled

CCIC = MAX77705 hw: 3 main: 30

WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x030c)

AP SWREV: B:2 K:2 S:2

and a bunch of other info (DID, LOT_ID, CHIP_ID, nAsv_TABLE, nAsv_CPUCL0, nAsv_CPUCL1, nAsv_G3D, nAsv_MIF, nAsv_INT, nAsv_CAM_DISP, nAsv_CP, nAsv_PMIC, nAsv_PMIC_CP, nAsv_FSYS, product_line, asb_version, ids_big, ids_g3d, PMIC_ID, LPDDR4 manufacturer, LPDDR4 process ver, LPDDR3 size)

and anything I try to flash (i tried all files from DBT XXU2, also individual files like just BL/AP/CP/CSC and even individual imgs like sboot, boot, recovery, system, cache) and always the same message All binaries are not allowed to be flashed due to KG Locked. :(

Is my phone really bricked ? Anybody have any tips on what should I do ? I searched for 2 days for any solution and didn't find anything specific for N960F and solutions for other models didn't work, also nothing comes up on searches on KG STATE :crying:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElsaReyes:
Okay so my tablet has been running pretty ****ty as of late. Battery draining very fast, charging being very slow, locking up from time to time, and overall sluggishness.

So I just went looking around see what replacement parts there were out there. And I found one site that sells Tab S Motherboards, now I have no clue whatsoever if a replacement mother board would even fix my problems, and honestly I don't plan on getting it.

I'm just curious as when selecting the ram, it not only had motherboards with 16gb and 32gb's, but also a motherboard with 64gb's of ram.

But I've looked around and I can't find anything about a 64gb version of the Tab S. Was it exclusive to another country? Does it exist at all? I'm just all kinds of confused right now.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
I have been shopping for Tab S parts long time ago and I was surprised how ridiculously expensive these parts can be on ebay. I mean, about 18 months ago, I needed a new mainboard (didn't care how much storage), and the prices were in the neighborhood of 130-200dollars for one with no real guarantee that it works. Eventually by some luck I run into some person who was selling a working 32GB T800 tablet with a cracked screen for something like 120 bucks on ebay. I decided to buy that tablet for spare parts, like battery or mainboard. That's still too expensive for such an old tablet, but what can we do? The Android tablet market has literally gone to ****. Brand new 2018 or 2019 models suck big time and cost like they were an iPad or and iPad pro.
