Hello guys,

If you sure you have right firmware for you're Note 4 "910F" flash again with Odin!
Set Odin by default! Tick not RE Partition and so on!

Does that mean it cant be used normally with a SIM Card, just Wifi or is there a way I can get it to work?

You have an app "Samsung Retailmode" in your appdrawer?
So open Configuratin Settings in this app, than you have to enter Admin Passwort! Enter 1. Password : 5444
After this disable the factory...... here you need second password! 2. Password : M729Q16K8546
After this check reset and reboot! Hope that helps!?

I already removed the Retail Mode App from the phone and flashed a stock ROM, but I cant get the SIM card to work and access mobile Networks (Baseband Version: Unknown). I would like to fix that and get it working normally, (maybe flashing some different Modem or Mod to enable network access) but I don't know what to flash or how to do it. :crying:

I know only the method with Unlock from RetailMode App!
Maybe it works when you flash Retail Firmware/ Install Retail Mode app and try it with the passwords above?
You can download retail mode app from playstore!
if you have a live demo unit you'll never can get it work, so there's no hardware (modem) inside

What stock ROM did you use to flash, and what is your device's info?
Can you show the device's info with this Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app?

I just found out I have exactly the same device = tablet. I'm kind of dissapointed.... ;crying: Can I at least sell it for spare parts? If not I'll just use it as a tablet. I was cheated by the seller. he didn't say anything. Great app btw. will use it from now on...

As you can see in the screenshot, there is no info about Modem Board, so I doubt it does not have modem hardware (?).
Can you show me all screenshots from that app? (you can use S Pen to capture screenshot easily).
And also can you show a picture of the back sticker (behind the battery).
Thanks.

Nothing ?

Same thing happened to me too,but before that I had a fully functionaly phone.After I flashed many custom roms ended in bootloop and only a stock rom NEE 5.0.1 works,all other stock rom I flash ends in bootloop.And baseband unknown,imei null,no modem.

I think from Note 3 onwards, samsung has choosen to make separate hardware for its demo devices. In some specific models even the AMOLED panel also is unique and can't be used with other devices. I am currently working with samsung. Earlier we were using these demo devices for personal use and for spare parts. Right now it's good for nothing other than playing games and surfing Internet.

Samsung note 3 n9005 ( european model ) IMEI and software problem

Hello,
I'm from Egypt I bought a note 3 n9005 european sim model
-from settings my phone reads different IMEI than the one written on the phone under the battery.
-The network goes down to emergency call only but never asked me for unlock PIN
-someone installed for me android 4.4.2 that deleted all options like air gestures and all other Samsung stuffs
- In settings menu the phone model n9000 ( -_- )
- I wanted to return the phone to stock settings, firmware and unlock it.
- I think knox already tripped ( how to check it ? )
- I downloaded a file with extensionBTU- N9005XXUDMJ7 (mar.tdr5) 1.36GB + Odin 3.07 + usb driver.
Do I need anything else because it's my first time flash an android phone.
Thanks in advance
Switch on the phone by pressing power+home+volume down. This will take you to download mode. Knox status will be displayed there.
If you are on 4.4.2, you can't downgrade to MJ7.
I have no idea how you managed to get a new with a new ROM.
But you can always try flashing the ROM you downloaded. You don't need anything else. Just read a couple of guides on Odin flashing.

Just don't post your IMEI number here
If your model is showing N9000 it's from a CM build being installed, especially if you lost Samsung features.. as for the IMEI issue we'll investigate that soon as we know what we are actually dealing with :good:

Yup just as I suspected... OK
Follow this
Open ODIN, put your phone into download mode connect your phone, load the .md5 file into the PDA option on ODIN and press start. It will reflash your stock Samsung back to normal.

_these command leads to an error ( sometimes it works and the imei is also different than under the battrey )

Once you flash back to normal Stock Samsung it'll be better to grasp the IMEI errors, when dialling *#06# into the keypad it adds an extra number with a / mine is /01 iirc. for now, how about we get you back to Stock then sort the rest as we are unsure what is what. :good:

SM-N9005ZKEXSI is your product code. It signifies that your phone is from the gulf.
Just flash the firmware as directed by radicalisto. You'll be fine.

To my knowledge once the region lock is activated that's it, you can't undo it. < Ignore that, take a look at this
The region lock isn't to one country though, it's to continents. There may be some ways around it if you are rooted (which you are) but I'm not the best person to speak to regarding that. Odin being tripped means nothing apart from if your phone stops working tomorrow, Samsung won't be interested.
In terms of the Samsung Stock Software that you are installing, it doesn't really matter what software you install providing it isn't the Exynos version. Because you have the 4.4 boot loader though you MUST flash the leaked polish build. If you install the version that was mentioned above by one of the other posters, later on we can focus on getting you the correct software for your device region if we need to.
I can't tell you much about region lock. Mine came without it.
n9005xxudmj7 is a ROM version. Not a product number.
Since your knox is already tripped, you can easily root your device using Chainfire's autoroot and install the regionlock-away.
But before we get there, we need to get you up and running on atleast some version of TouchWiz.
Did you try flashing that file yet?
Hey peopele finally back to original Firmware thnx all

[Q] G900F Network registration problem after flashing

Hi I have international version of S5 G900F. I flashed the phone with UK BTU stock rom. Now the problem is I cannot connect to the Network.
I tried going to Settings->More Networks -> Network Operators -> Select automatically . It took 5-10 mins to search but cannot connect.
Sim is not locked as it was working before I flashed the stock rom. also I read somewhere in internet that once the phone is region unlocked, it is permanently unlocked to use any other country sim. I don't know the original region of my phone but I bought it in Uk from 3rd party dealer not from any carrier.
I can think of two thing at the moment. It should be either regional locked again, but it does not prompt any thing to activate or enter pin or anything like that. or it should be wrong modem.
Is there a way to find if the phone is region locked ?
and is there a way to find correct region of the phone ?
the label on the box was removed so I cannot find from the box as well.
Thanks in advance.
I still haven't fixed this problem. Could someone suggest how to fix?
I've attached some screenshots with my phone info.
first image shows NETWORK:UNBLOCKED and IMEI Certi: PASS
-> I think this means, the phone is not blocked by network, and IMEI certificate has passed so it's not stolen or lost claimed phone.
another screenshot is the Firmware and CSC code/country information,
-> this means, this phone is build to sell in UK, so UK sim should unlock the regional lock.
Also the phone was working fine before I installed stock rom which I dowloaded from sammobile.
in the sceenshot, one of the network is connected but it says emergency call only because it cannot register to the network.
It is not sim lock also, because when I put T-mobile sim it does not ask for pin to unlock also.
what is wrong here. any idea guys? xda supposed to be the biggest android forum and samsung s5 is one of the most popular phone at the moment, isn't there anyone who have similar problem and solved? or atleast give some reason this cannot be fixed at all.
does the TMobile sim work? does it register with the network? If yes, then call the provider (of the other sim) and ask what's going on. Maybe you have a broken sim?

I've tried with Orange sim, and it still cannot register to the network. When I put the orange sim, it pop up a dialogbox asking to choose a network provider, there was two options, T-mobile and orange. So it is detecting the sim, but it cannot register.
And also, I tried my sim in another phone, and my sim works in another phone without any problem.
Did you try to flash the firmware again, and then after that restore factory defaults?

Yes I did, still it didn't work. I emailed samsung customer service with the problem, and they asked me to restore factory defaults.
I did that again but didn't work.
I tried one custom ROM as well. same problem in that rom.
You're rooted? If yes then there might be problem with the modem part of the ROM, can you install the official one part ROM and try with that?

I've installed stock rom several times, and several different versions( from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-G900F&pcode=0 ). Rooted several times, installed modem.bin files several times from many custom rom/ stock rom. None of them worked. I tried installing modem.bin when not rooted as well. And all the attempt failed.
I did everything I could possibly think of , Then I posted the question in the forum.
You have the IMEI ??!? Or it is lost?? Then only per efs-backup…
Or sim is broken…

Sry XanoZuke, I could not do anything to fix this, so I returned the phone and got another handset. I now have Exynos Octa-core version. Found snapdragon version is more power efficient. My phone gets heated very quickly.

Don't worry, I found out that the motherboard was water damaged (the irony of life....), so a bought an LG G3.
Regarding the Exynos chip, I'm never buying anything exynos ever again. The performance is not as solid as Snapdragon and it gets heated really fast. Still, thanks for your reply! ?

Sorry i end up selling the phone as is..
Same deal
My g900f has no mobile services sims fine
I have the same problem.
Cannot connect to network after flashing new ROM. Since then I tried about 10 different original roms and couple custom roms. Number of different MODEMs and BOOTLOADERs but with no joy. SIM card works fine in different phone.
Also I tried to load different CERT files and QCN with Z3X Box but that didn't help either.
I've tried *#0011# command here are results:
with LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto-connect:
imgur.com/i69HCBM
with WCDMA only:
imgur.com/QPbvKHG
and GSM only:
imgur.com/8InhQWQ
It seems that GSM is not working at all.
At this stage I run out of ideas and probably gonna get rid of the phone as it is or use it as pimped-out ipod touch
(sorry for messed up links but I can't post to outside sites yet)

Got scammed on CL, got a SM-900H instead of the 900T

the title says it all, i got scammed. so i met up with this guy today, popped my t-mobile sim in there and it has LTE data, at least that's what it says on the top, and data was working. even when i restarted the phone, it has the t-mobile animations and all, so i thought all was ok. but then i reset the phone, then it says invalid imei, no imei # under settings either, and data isn't working, but i could still make calls and receive texts. now i'm stuck with a phone that works only as a phone, and no data whatsoever.
so i've tried calling and texting the guy many times, but with no avail, and i have no other phone to use. so how do i go about from here on fixing the invalid imei thing and getting data to work again? any inputs much appreciated.
edit:
here's the phone info under about devices:
baseband -G900SKSU1ANCD
build number: KOT49H.G900SKSU1AND3
SELinux status: Enforcing
kernel version: 3.4.5 [email protected] #1
android version: 4.4.2
edit #2:
after a little bit of digging, i see that SuperSU is installed, so i think that means my phone is rooted. the sticker clearly says mine is the 900H, but user gee2012 says i have the 900S, so i'm really confused on what model i have and what rom to flash to make this work for t-mobile USA.

so the sticker below the battery says it's a 900H, but the firmware info says i have the 900S, so i'm pretty confused on how to proceed right now. btw, i think my phone is rooted, i see superSU on the apps drawer.
also, as i've mentioned on the original post, the 4G lte data was working fine before i did the reset, but i thought the reset wouldn't restore my phone to default firmware and the data should still work, no? so i'm confused on why the data is not working and the imei # is not there.

i don't have the xda app installed right now, but here's the info below:

so it looks as though this IS the 900S, so does that mean the LTE should work on my phone? if so, how do i go about to get it working again? once again, i greatly appreciate your help.

Look on the internet what LTE bands the Korean G900S supports and what band your provider uses. 2G/3G should be usable anyway i guess. As Samsung implemented the regional lock you may want to contact Samsung for advice/support for your device. Are you able to call and be called?

Check the apn data in settings/more networks/ access points. Maybe you have to add your provider and the correct settings for data.

The APN settings thing didn't work for me. It's showing that I don't have an imei #, so maybe I need to take care of that first?
If you don't have imei number how do you use your phone for calling?

I checked all so the IMEI in the SAMSUNG site , they tell the phone is in Samsung base, i don't know ...In this case , i use my phone in this mode until some pop up ?

It think it is a real Samsung S5 but meant for Korea, don`t know for sure if you can flash a rom with western languages on it. Use Google to find more info.
Look for the imei behind the battery, not the one the phone tell you.
You probably have a hdc clone of the Samsung S5.
Try running this app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo
If it's running a custom rom the info shown might not be as standard with different bootloader and rom installed.
This will show rom description and build data etc so you can see what's really running. Then Google or xda search for that rom.
Here's mine.....
Also gives imei if it's there.
Sent from my Galaxy S5 running NeatRom 0X1

Do you use a Custom ROM?
Did you tried a factory reset?

yes i didt reset and hard rest
Are you using a custom ROM? I faced the same issue when updating the stock firmware trough Kies. I had to download the official firmware and flash it with odin instead of just using Kies, solved every problem.

still they also couldn't fixe it
You are not telling us much about the story of that smartphone. What build are you running? Have you tried flashing in the past? Was it broken since when you got it?
flash the stock firmware using odin or smart switch
Thats a Verizon Galaxy S5!! What country are you trying to use it in? While the GSM sim-slot on Verizon high-end devices is usually unlocked for Global GSM usage, you need to check if the device supports the GSM frequencies in your location.

A310F Live Demo Unit - get IMEI running?

Hi,
I got a Live Demo Unit of a store owner who got insolvent and liquidated his shop. Now I got this device which also recognizes a SIM card. But I can't make any calls and it don't get any cellular access. Also the IMEI is some developer IMEI.
My question is, can I get this unit running? Or can I use the IMEI of my one of my other smartphones? Or is it a hardware limitation? I already flashed latest official Samsung firmware (5.1.1 LP).

try this site .. http://www.naldotech.com/how-to-disable-exit-galaxy-s5-demo-live-unit-retail-mode/
Thanks. I already flashed stock fw. But I still got no IMEI.
stock image wont do anything, i think demo units lock the ability to flash the modem, hence you wont see any radio infos.
There is a thorough guide in the Note 3 threads, and also give these xposed modules a try: Phone ID Changer & Serial Number Changer
Hm. But I flashed a radio. Sim card is also working, but because of a developer imei you can register in cellular network since the imei is not on providers white list.
I will read you linked thread asap. Thanks for the hint.
i just read on that note 3 thread, the OP flashed all the newest stuff, but left the bootloader and modem untouched (what it came with). What model does your demo unit show? On the Note 3, it had a SM-N900X, the X was only for the demo units.

You can flash a modem but you will still have no imei. See the forums on how to flash a modem. You need Odin.

One advice. Don't waste your time. You won't be able to use a sim card with a live demo unit. Even when flashing a modem.
I don't know where I got the modem from. I think somewhere in this forum oder on samfirmware.com
