[Q] Cannot get Note3 to display AP or CSC (code *#1234# error)

I have become increasingly frustrated with this device! I am trying to run the *#1234# code in the stock dialer to view my AP and CSC so that I may root via the Root de la Vega method. But when the code runs it just comes back saying "Unable to Process Request". I've tried everything such as dialing just #1234#, *#1234#*, resets, factory resets, posting the question here previously (as I cannot post in the actual forum thread yet due to posting limitations) but it was deleted with no message to let me know why, nothing works. I cannot root safely without being able to view this code and was wondering if anyone else was having the same problem? Not sure if it's relevant but my carrier is T-mobile and I am using the 32gb White model. Everything is still stock. I really need help with this, I'm ready to go back to my note 2 because at least that had root -_-. Someone please help!?

As a workaround, perhaps log in to Kies solely for the purpose of checking what your current firmware is? See snapshot here http://i1-win.softpedia-static.com/screenshots/Kies_1.png?1378883026.

You have to be rooted and "enable" the entry of service codes via the dialer first.
For the VZW Note 3, I've confirmed this works - Edit the contents of /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu from OFF to ON (must be capitalized)...reboot and you're good to go.
If that doesn't work for non VZW Note 3's, you can try the full steps listed here!

This is very confusing , if I'm trying to obtain root I need to already be rooted? If I root without using the Vega method I'll trip the knox counter no? I'm trying to avoid that. Seems like a catch 22 to me?

They ended up being:
N900TUVUBM17 & M17 respectively. Seriously, thank you for ending the frustration, this phone has gotten much better now, for a second there I thought I was going to have to deal with buyers remorse.

Those are the same codes I have. Which AP and CSC files did you use with ODIN?

Having the same problem, but THANK you for the Checkfus recommendation. That does provide the CSC.
It doesn't show AP though.
However, (new road block) my CSC is N900VVZWMI9 , I don't see that in the list https://mega.co.nz/#F!n9JnyI5S!VKmm1hxHlhIxWo1bXeIfLA
So I guess we will have to wait... Correct?

I am having a similar problem, I just opened my Note 3 and when I dial *#1234# nothing happens, if I click send, it actually tries to dial it. I need to know the AP and CSC so I can root. Obviously I can't follow the steps above since I'm not rooted yet.

Remember.. You have to use native dialer when entering codes.. I was using a third party dialer app and it only dialed.

I had the same problem. I tried for 2-3 hours everything, from wiping the phone to disabling other system administrator, but nothing.
A couple of days later I tried again and boom, it worked out of the sudden.
Not sure if it is something I did or the activation just took a couple of days.
You can give the google location and blocking feature a try in the meanwhile.
Good Luck and don't forget (in case you did before) to enter your phone number when you try findmymobile.com again

[Help]Some weird problems i need help with.

HI there, i have being lurking a lot of time without and account and from the time i learned here how to root and do other cool stuff to android device but now i needed to create an account to ask for help because i cant find any solution.
first a bit of story so you can understand why im so weirded out by my problems.
My dad works in an important carrier here in spain where i live, the 28 it was my birthday and he wanted to gift me some new tech, he managed to get a Samsung Note 3 Live demo unit ( i know all the fuss about it and how it can't be used as a normal phone etc) and i was quite happy to test out this device but as any live demo unit there was the retail mode installed and all, so i decided to find the Stock rom for my phone and ¿flash it? through odin, went perfect, the retail mode disappeared and all the functions worked perfectly (not the network signal obviously) but it was a clear stock rom Note 3, all happy, rooted it installed my apps used it until this weekend.
My father got another one (same device model etc) for him and asked me to make it like mine,i thought this was easy because i still had all the files from mine and all, did the same steps as with mine but when it restarted it entered a loop, the device booted up, the configuration worked kinda weird (wifi not searching from my network), system not working, and after a couple minutes reboot
I decided to test on my functional note 3 the same files and that ****ed my note 3 too same deal rebooting and stuff. WITH THE SAME FILE I USED THE FIRST TIME.
I tested formating everything, flash another recovery, root it use another international stock rom i tryed TWRP and im out of ideas and im in fear of bricking the device even more.
Anyone could help me out.
I have no clue of what is happening or what could i did wrong, i understand there is no way of make it work like a 100% normal phone but i want to flash a rom and be able to use it like a stock note 3 just from my personal stuff.
Both Note 3 are SM-N9005, i cant acces the memory of the phone,but i can put it in download mode and in Recovery,i can flash it with odin and put Clockwork but i tested everything and i cant find any solution.
Please help me!!!:crying:

I will try this but this isnt the same as downloading a ROM from samsung-updates.com for the note 3?
Is 3.09 more efective,reliable or it may affect the procces than using 3.15?

I know that ROMs from sammobile are reliable.
Odin v3.15? Never heard of. I can confirm 3.09 works perfectly for not 3.

Nothing not working same problem now it reboots after maybe 7 9 minutes, and same deal the wifi try to get the network but stays all the time in "Confirming if the networs is good" or somthing like that...
Still have no idea what to do.
I just saw something weird, in the back of my Live demo Unit, there is a tag below the battery who says its model SM-N900X but a bit upper in the plastic there is a code with SM-N9005 if this has something to do with all .
Still looking for help please

N900X
I have the same problem.
After flashing retail firmware i've got bootloop.
It is may be because EFS is broken.
Or bootloader blocks normal firmware.
I've tried to flash original bootloader but it fails with error.
Still waiting method to recover it.

[Q] How to identify the bootloader version

I had some problems in my GPS accuracy (it was excellent when I bought it)
The device was rooted and upgraded to MJ7 (with maintaining the root status). I've decided to take it to the service center to fix the gps issue. (I removed everything related to the root instead of unrooting).
Just got the device back today. They told me that only software upgrades has been done. GPS is perfect (~3m accuracy )
But, I'm suspecting that the override the whole software including the bootloader.
==> tl;dr
Is there anyway to check if I got the new or old bootloader ?!

*#1234# - AP = Bootloader (if i recall correctly)

Yup, if you ap ends with mjX, X> 1 or mkX, X=anything you have the new bootloader

Maybe not quite. Check your laws regarding warranty returns and the rules, It is possible that your country may enforce a directive that will make "The Seller" replace/fix your phone regardless what modifications you have made to it - -IE: Root/Tripped KNOX etc. NOT guaranteed, but check to be 100% certain.
