I'm trying to get this phone to work.
SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3
Model: SM-N900
Baseband Version: N900UBUBMJ2
Android Version 4.3
kERNEL VERSION: 3.4.5 [email protected] #1 Fri May 16 17:06:46 CST 2014
BUILD NUMBER: JSS15J.N900UBUBMJ2
SELinux Status: enforcing
In the Phone Status in settings
It's showing me:
IMEI : UNKNOWN
IMEI SV
I somehow entered the Chinese recovery and deleted the ROM by mistake, I wasn't sure what I was doing.
Then I found out after how to get into the English recovery.
I tried an IMEI changer, but it's saying fake kernel.
I tried flashing using SP Flash Tool, but I need a scatter file, which I don't know where to find.
After the delete, I realized the phone doesn't show the Base Model upon boot.
When I place my SIM card in the phone, I'm seeing IMEI invalid.
I did some research and I discovered that I need to flash a ROM back to my phone in order to rectify the IMEI issue.
I rooted the phone using Kingo Root. I installed and used various Apps simultaneously like Safestrap, GooManager, Flashify, TWRP manager unto the phone, I go the recovery installed using all of those. But When I tried to boot to the recovery, The phone shows ANDROID, like a stock phone.
I did some more research, and found that I need a T999 recovery and I also researched and saw that the Boot Loader is locked for the NOTE 3. I'm wondering if the boot loader is locked for this Chinese clone to.
All I would like is to be able to boot to the recovery, I'm unable to access the phone through ODIN, I have all the latest drivers, I purchased new USB cables.
I would be grateful for anyone's assistance. Thanks in Advance.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist Your EFS Partition is corrupted hence the only way you could fix it is by EFS Backup of your own device not from other device . since its clone only way is to go to Service Center and get it fixed
Good Luck!

I'm not technical but I have had my experience in this situation. I rooted my galaxy grand prime SM-G530H because I wanted to recover something lost. This incurred no possible way of booting up the phone without going through odin mode and rooting it over and over again. No factory reset, no supersu fully unroot, nothing could fix it. To unroot it with stock firmware, you should get md5.tar file for your exact build of the model. You should get your build number in the about device, with your model number, android version and baseband version (which is the build number). If you have a file for your model, it may still fail if you don't have the exact file for the build and thus would not work, so ensure you search for the right file.
If this goes for other models? Well I am not sure but try it and see what happens.
Hello everyone. I just got this samsung galaxy s3 verizon and I was looking to unlock the bootloader and install CM rom. I saw a the thread about Casual tool and I used. My phone is on 4.1.2 and Baseband of I9300XXBMF1. I followed the instructions exacrky as stated on the thread. I installed root, insecure bootlaoder and CWM in that order. After installling CMW, the phone asked to restart and I clicked continue. It went off and has not powered on since then. Please is there anything I can do?
My phone details
Baseband: I9300XXBMF1
BuildNumber: JZO54K.19300XXBMF1
AP: I9300XXBMF1
CP: I9300XXBMF1
CSC:I9300XXBMF1
Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks
Maybe someone can chime in, but I think you borked partitions. Is this the international edition? I assume you can use
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166
BUT IF U HAVE INTL EDITION YOU NEED a international debrick image or a full odin restore file. By full I mean when looking inside w/ 7zip you will see sbl1, 2. The bootchain is what you need. You can download multiple versions and look inside them. I had a similar incident years ago, and back then no debrick images. All the info is scattered about the forum. I got a 16gb spare card & dd (careful Its oftentimes called disk destroyer) image to card, then put into phone, turned on & booted. Once it works hold buttons for dl mode & reflash. There is a better guide elsewhere possibly ATT section, that link was the first.
#2 If you can still reach download mode? You may be able to odin back with a .pit file & correct image. checking repartition & load image & pit.

Can you verify that your phone is I9300 on the sticker behind the battery? When you flashed the recovery.IMG was it for i9300 and what method did you use to flash it?
Are you sure casual worked to unlock the bootloader? Flashing recovery on locked bootloader never goes well.

I used the Casual app to do everything and it got bricked. I followed the instruction on another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166 about unbricking using a sd card and my phone only responded to the 4.4.2. I flashed the 4.4.2 stock rom and it is now working, though I am now stuck with a locked bootloader. Thanks for the response, I was beginning to think no one would respond.
The phone is working well now, but it is not responding to test codes like *#06# (for IMEI) or even *#*#1234#*#*. Do you have any idea on what might be wrong?
Thanks
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900V from Verizon and I have been trying to change it to the DarkLord ROM that is a Modded Mix between Note 7 & Edge ROM.
I at first had problems rooting the phone with Odin (it always failed) so I search and search and found a tool called ArabicTool which took care of it and finally I rooted my phone, after that I tried adding TWRP so I could change the ROM but every time I added the recovery tool I got the message saying that the “System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone” and then had to do an emergency restoration using Kies3 and the cycle began again with other methods but always the same result.
I would like to know if anyone has a way to change the ROM on a SM-N900V from Verizon, I have seem some guides that claim the process works with the SM-N900V but every time I try to do them I get the message of software not authorized when I install the recovery app TWRP and then I have to do an emergency restore in Kies3.
Please help anyone it would be really appreciated.

That rom may not be compatible with your device, the verizon variant is different to the other note 3's. I'm pretty sure the verizon note 3 is locked bootloader but if you ask your questions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/help
the experts there will be able to confirm this for you
Good Luck

So happy
Hello! I'm trying to root my phone and I am at a loss. I am pretty new to this. So, not surprisingly I soft-bricked my phone but luckily I was able to restore everything with Smart Switch but I read about how updates can prevent rooting. I've tried a variety of guides but I keep wondering if it is even possible to do at all as I keep seeing comments about how some phones are not able to root at all.
Phone Information:
• Name device: Galaxy J7 (2016)
• Model number: SM-J710FN
• Android version: 6.0.1
• Build number: MMB29K.J710FXXU3AQF8
What I have tried so far:
• This XDA guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/root-galaxy-j7-sm-j710fn-root-t3448389 (UNAVAILABLE)
• KingoRoot
• KingRoot
• OneClickRoot
• Dr. fone
• TWRP recovery (which gives /Data error no matter what file system I change to in Advanced Wipe. It does work but the phone keeps bootlooping after)
Unfortunately the video with the guide on XDA doesn't work. Does that mean it is outdated? Should I maybe flash the firmware back to the original (before update)? Or is it entirely impossible? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Hello dear XDA community,
as new user here I was very excited to find this great platform and have learnt finally how to improve privacy on my samsung... I installed TWRP, successfuly rooted by Magisk, added Xposed, Xlua Privacy... all was good until... My phone didn't become FRP locked... Probably locked the device when I was trying to log into google account because of WhatsApp backups
I tried to get to download mode and flash it by Odin in this download mode but process failed, FRP locked appeared and... before when I was recovering system by TWRP I was successful but second time probably OEM was turned off and that's why I have a problem now
could you please advice me any software which with I can get rid of this FRS lock from download mode? I don't mind to pay also for this software but I am worried about fake software...
My problematic mobile phone Samsung Galaxy A5 Duos (2017) SM-A520F/DS - It is dual sim phone (It is international version of A5)
Android: Oreo 8.0.0
Serial Number: R58K24KNKKR
Build Number: R16NW.A520FXXS8CSB1
Please give me an advice
thank you
The only way I have been able to do this is to flash an egnineering bootloader and then run an adb command that wipes the security then reflash your bootloader, load your ROM from recovery, and reboot.
any guidance how to flash an egnineering bootloader and then run an adb command please?
Thank you for you advice
