[SOLVED] Solution for Emergency Calls Only for 4.3 ROMS - Galaxy Note II Android Development

Thanks to @johnyp
and mainly to Zuluman! for the actual fixes and modem patcher!
You can follow this solution to fix the "Emergency Calls Only" problem for those suffering from this after upgrading to 4.3 ROMS. Note this is if you have a VALID IMEI number, but are still getting Emergency Calls Only!
If you have an invalid IMEI number\Baseband problem then you need to restore a backup of your /efs folder to resolve that (follow other threads that detail how to resolve that issue)
You can safely upgrade to any 4.3 ROM now by following this solution (ORIGINAL THREAD HERE!!!)
Download the patched MK4 kernel from here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B6MIUd7HJudAeDVaaGo0SXdYRWs&usp=sha ring&tid=0B6MIUd7HJudAbU5YaGkzOUowMG8
Next download the modem (MJ9 modem patched by johnyp):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/u60919sl1e...0_ModemMJ9.zip
Copy these 2 files to your sdcard. Reboot to recovery and then flash the kernel then the modem and reboot, and you will no longer have the emergency calls only!
Remember this is for 4.3 ROMS only!
Note you can download the modem patcher here! This will allow you to patch modem.bin files for a modem of your choice also. Then just update the modem zip file by replacing the modem.bin with your patched modem.bin

Yeah it took me a while to locate the thread because of it's obscure location, but after about 5 or so hours I stumbled across it and it worked straight away, so thought I'd make it a little easier for others to find

I have downloaded all required files. Now should I flash mj5 bootloader or just flash the rom, kernel and modem. I am planning to flash dn3 v3. I am currently using 4.1.2 with ariza patch.
Please guide.

Make full wipes (I recommend format internal sd)
Flash rom
Flash MK4 patched modem
Flash patched modem (you can flash mj5 or mj9 patched modem, mj5 works better for me, try and choose the best for you)
Reboot
If wifi not work you can odin flash Dr ketone wifi fix or mj5 bootloader (you choose).
Done.

Hi guys - yeah as johnyp said.
You don't need to follow the Ditto Note 3 v3 install guide but it doesn't hurt.
I have done exactly that. Flash the v3 ROM, reboot into download mode and Flash the MJ5 bootloader they mention via Odin, reboot into recovery and Flash the patched mk4 kernel, and flash the patched MJ9 modem.
But in all honesty you can probably skip the MJ5 bootloader part, then there is no need to reboot at all

where every thing is free!

Yes this is working for the stock rom. This is for if like me and many others you are getting no network and or "emergency calls only".
This is the stock kernel and stock MJ9 modems that have been patched to resolve these problems. The issue as I understand it, is if you upgraded to 4.3 roms then it stops your phone accessing the /efs folder. Even downgrading doesn't resolve this issue. So you need to run a patched kernel and modem to have it looking in the /efs folder again for your IMEI and other info.
The patched kernel part I believe is to just remove the knox security - but johnyp can correct me on that. I haven't actually tested just flashing the patched modem, but you can test that yourself first to see if it works. If it does then great, if not then flash the patched kernel as well.

Thanks I will try tomorrow n post the results

When you say you flashed the mj5 and mj9 modems do you mean you flashed the mj5 bootloader with odin? and the mj9 modem with philz recovery?
If it still has emergency calls only - dial *#06# and see if it the IMEI is the same that's on the sticker under the battery (or on the box the phone came in), or if it's a generic IMEI. If it's generic it could be that you need to restore the /efs folder. Install a root explorer and enable show hidden files, and browse to the root of the phone and see if there is /efs and that it is populated inside the folder.
If it is it could be corrupted, so restore from a backup anyway. If you have one - if you don't there are various posts around on how to recover a corrupt /efs folder.

Thank for the links.
Can you please tell me what is the file: N7100_4.3_Kernel ? Do I need to flash it to ?
And can you please tell me what sould I do with the "modem.patcher.v2.exe" ?

@frliran you don't have to copy the entire post from first page to ask your question..
Read the OP it clearly mentions what it is meant for. Modem patcher is to patch your modem.

[Deodexed & Zipaligned GT-I9305 ZHALI8] for GT-I9305 [ONLINE]

Based on Latest firmware version : PDA:LI8 / PHONE:LI2 / CSC:LI6 (TGY)
Just like ausdim's deodex package, this is not a full ROM, it will install and replace only your system/app and system/framework folders so please make sure you are on the above stated firmware before continuing.
Tested on my ZHALI8 based GT-I9305 (TGY Hong Kong unit).
You need to have CWM Recovery installed.

That's the method I used. make sure after first odin flash, you let your device reboot twice before u apply cwm tar file.

You can use this package on ZHALI7, however it will not update your modem/csc/boot to ZHALI8. I don't think it's a major problem though, as it is just a software package modification and it should work properly.

Same here. Same as Asiafalcon Talking about. After flash the recovery.md5. Then reboot into the recovery mode, found that it still show me 3e.
I haven't give up so I tried the way from the galaxy note 2 topic from this forum, used the recovery and root file which is for the note 2. I though it may be the same thing since both of them are also using 4.1.1. Unfortunately, I've failed flasing and popup the yellow triangle on my i9305.
Finally, I tried to using the i9305 root/recovery file to flash once again on it and it can boot up well. At the moment, I found my phone can not detect my micro sim even if I've the newone. Does any one know how to fix this? Do I need to re-flash the original rom (with re-partition from odin) once again?

I'll state carefully and again, do not ever re-partition the device UNLESS 1) you have a backup EFS copy and 2) you are sure that the partition PIT file you are using is for i9305/T AND your specific model (16/32/64 gb), and nothing else.
I'll also re-elaborate my steps - after you have first flashed the Odin rom , make sure you install the CWM through odin AFTER at least two reboots. 3e will be gone once you do so.
Re: Kazumi
So the above step could fix my currently problem? Can I get back the 3G signal and detect my micro sim as normal?

should be, unless the device's NV data area (IMEI) is corrupted. Otherwise, I would suggest you to reflash the official rom first and check whether your device has a signal or not.

You need to flash it twice untick autorestart flash ,dont disconnect usb -2.!!power off with button going to reboot auto-hold volume down go in download ,now tick autorestart flash again and you got new baseband. Flashing only once never worked for me
But it should be enough to HOLD POWER OFF UNTIL BLACKSCREEN download mode and flash... So basilcy the the second part of the description over

the diffrence is in the powr off way !! if you turn your device out usually way ,you flash you dont see the new baseband version in the rom , before flash you need to FORCE POWER OFF - HOLD POWER OFF button until BLACK SCREEN ,than right into download mode and flash ,and you get/see new baseband in rom too, if you dont do it like that then the baseband in rom gonna stay the same/old
worked...
Repeated the procedure twice ( 4 flashes ) and then it worked...

Odin flash is always works and yes u can go back to 4.4.2 but make sure ur using CWM recovery and make one copy of it before proceeding.

-Why it needs Indian version?
-Why needs root?
-What about bootloader and modem?

Hi Dr.ketan
I m feeling happy that ur into my thread I m a follower of u and for this backup to do so the root is required and since mine is indian version i dont want anybody taking chance on doing this.
The bootloader is android 5 and modem is from Vietnam leak.
I expect more help from u on this to get success as this is my first thread.
Thank you

When you restore nandroid it will replace all files from your backup so no meaning to have specifically indian version. It should work like all custom ROMs
When you restoring from nandroid, No root requires
CWM Nandroid restore doesn't restore modem and bootloader (at least on chenglu's what I am using) so provided recovery does so?

I had tried this with two different devices which were stock rooted devices so both got success and thought of sharing it.
Hope it will do

How did you do that with the MD5 mismatch errors, I verified every file in the backup and they do match Nandroid.md5, so something is obviously wrong, are you sure about the version of CMW?

I have no reason to believe that restoring just nandroid will do job if that lacks bootloader and modem.
Are you sure before using this you have never installed Android L with previous method?

Hey Doc.
I tried it with a new bootloader and what did happen is that it was impossible to use ODIN to flash any other
recovery, it would just fail until I reverted back to the bootloader you provided some time ago, fortunately this new
bootloader did not block me from going back.

[Guide][Receive OTA after root][keep apps/data][GT-I9500][5.0.1]

a lot of users are having this problem and if you want to receive an OTA you have to flash the stock unrooted firmware that will cause lose of data.
this guide will show you how to receive OTA again without losing your stuff
This works on GT-I9500 ONLY! (Lollipop 5.0.1 Recovery)
This also should work on any other model, but you have to replace the recovery with your model!
Steps:
1- Go to SuperSU and scroll down to "Full unroot" then reboot.
2- Download This file to PC and extract it.
3- Go to download mode by pressing the power key + home key + volume down key at the same time, then press volume up.
4- Flash the file via Odin (AP) or (PDA)
go to check the system status, you will find it Official
you can now receive OTA.
Q&A:
What is OTA (Over The Air)? Its an update which you can receive over wifi or mobile data.
What do i get from OTA? Well, if you root your device you wont be able to receive an update again, unless from flashing firmware via Odin.
- Why im still on custom status? Because you modified your system.
- What kind of modifying? Installing busybox, editing or deleting or changing any app or file system.
and some times xposed.
- How do i restore the old app? You can restore them by flashing firmware or by restoring Nandroid backup.
- Then what is the use of your guide? Well my guide helps in first place the rooted not the modded onces.
and always do Nandroid of the original system apps+data
you are still having your apps, data, pics, vids, etc...
you can root again at anytime.
check my thread for rooting if you want
im not responsible for any bricks
thank you...

Your welcome!
Hi there,
Thanks for the guide, just thinking you may want to say what option in Odin to put the file and what OTA stands for, for the noobs.
Just a thought.

At some point the update maybe canceled, because the update checks for the apps before the installation, always do a backup of your phone then remove what you want, after you want to update just restore the system folder from the backup

If you can see the stock recovery then check the SuperSU app again and maybe you are having a custom kernel

So i need to unroot it as well ? Anyway flashed via odin original stock russian lollipop rom just to check for any update and the flashed twrp and rooted it back. Just that it takes 10 mins or more to do all this. Thought your small flash file would work .

Problem with network

Hi all.
I bought galaxy s6 last week with android 5.1 (Network was still working). Next day I flashed stock android 6 with odin and then I flashed recovery, I rooted, flashed new modem and I installed Pure stock extra lite ROM. All worked, except network.. I can see that I have signal but when I try to call someone it shows "Not registered on network". So I try to flash new Alexis ROM with new bootloader (Hacker bootloader) but it isn't better and problem is still here. Anybody know what to do with this problem? Maybe try to install stock android rom with odin? I would be really greatful if anybody can help me..

Aha, restore your firmware through 'emergency recovery' google or youtube it for instructions.
= Emergency Recovery Smart Switch for *Galaxy S6* if necessary <
EDIT: Oh your network.. I'm afraid I just can tell you to do what I told you to fix it..
It will bring you back to stock Android 6 then root it..
EDIT2: Do what I told you and repeat all the steps you done:
Root and download the ROM but don't flash any modem cuz it will bring you back to the current problem.
Remember, no modems.
Sent from my SM-G920F using XDA-Developers mobile app
Is your IMEI still ok?
I made instructions on how to use Smart Switch here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/how-to-smart-switch-emergency-t3383448
but it will revert you back to stock fw.
Check your IMEI/sn with *#06#
If you get IMEI null, or 3500000000006, you will have to rewrite IMEI with a box, and before that Smart Switch initialization won`t help.

So I did it and after Smart switch installed the rom it restarted and screen "Device doesn't have DRK"
EDIT: Now it boots to recovery and there it writes: "Device does not have DRK (Device Root Key), contact to SW PL. Please flash ENG binary then install DRK".
Does anybody know what to do with this?
EDIT2: So I found this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSNbHvJdTk4) and I flashed space x kernel and it boots but it didn't solve the problem which I had.. still I can't make any call or sms.. Btw my IMEI is still same and it's fine.
EDIT3: It manually found networks but I can't connect.

That's weird.
Try to flash the ROM through Odin, grab it from SamMobile. Choose the correct model and region.
Tell me what happens.

Hi Mlopik,
No your phone is not lost you just need to flash the modem you had before dealing with that problem.
Was the modem you flashed in the Aroma installer?

I see.
So you flashed a modem you didn't have to use.
Usually using Smart Switch works and gets everything back as usual.
Please wait until someone knows about modems come.
Again, your phone is not lost, have patience and good luck.

Your welcome pal, I wish I can help you but modems are the last thing I will touch. Don't lose hope, try to flash modems, search for correct modem for your phone.
Good luck!
EDIT: I also recommend flashing more than 3 ROMS sometimes that helps. Try to flash XtreStoLite ROM and Terminator and any popular ROM you see. If it asks to flash modem in the Aroma installer do it, flash the latest one.

So I tried to flash all modems via odin from here ( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=50807 ) to stock ROM with space x kernel and nothing happened Does anybody know what to do now? I can't find other modems to download
EDIT: I tried to flash many ROMs but it didn't help.. I tried to flash so many modems and problem is still same. Maybe I can try to go back to 5.1? But how? Only install 5.1 firmware from sammmobile via odin and it's all?
