What AP/CP/CSC? (output from *#1234#) What region was the phone bought from and what SIM are we talking here? What channel do you have your WiFi on?
(and for the moment don't do anything that might void your warranty - like writing stuff with Odin - it might be a bug and it might be covered by your warranty).

Sorry, I have no first-hand experience on that kind of configuration - I think N9005OLBDMK1 is supposed to be Singapore (which was supposed to come region-unlocked) and so is XSP (I believe Singapore unbranded).
My initial feeling was that you were seeing something related to region-locking or related to different WiFi channels between regions (some WiFi channels are present in US but not in the rest of the world).
WHAT AP/CP/CSC DO YOUR FRIENDS HAVE?
Since your knox flag is already 0x1 then I believe you can try some other regional or related MJ7 firmware (I do not think you can easily write pre-MJ7 firmware) - I believe the unbranded Spanish (EU) version is this one:
http://samsung-updates.com/details/15753/Galaxy_Note_3_Snapdragon/SM-N9005/PHE/N9005XXUDMJ7.html
but regarding WiFi and 3G/4G bands it might be possible that some other ROM from your region might be better/closer (even some from US/Canada, but I would test those as last resort).
Maybe an even easier thing (given Knox 0x1) is to test with the latest Omega ROM (but be careful when you install it - install first a CWM and from there install Omega on a path where you first save the existing EFS first).
Please let the forum know if you learn more about the subject.
I tried flashing with PHE region and nothing all is the same, another information are when i put an O2 uk SIM all work great, i think to flash with same version of CHO (chile) it is correct??
Y try with CHO-N9005VJUDMJ7 , ITV-N9005XXUDMJ7 , PHN-N9005XXUDMJ7 and nothing, Wifi work with no sim, and with O2 SIM or other but not with cubacel , some body suggest me another original firmware closely to cuba region to flash ?? maybe USA or canada ?
i talk with samsung support, and its a very basic support. Anybody can helpe with this problem please?? The N9005 with cubacel sim don't work the wifi, but with other carrier sim like O2, the wifi work perfectly.
Hmm ...

Try flashing the stock firmware which was pre installed on your phone and if that doesn't work take your phone to service centre

Always before flashing any firmware or custom rom first thing to do is back up your efs which you dint and then check your csc by dialing *#1234# even my device belonged to a Emirates country i dint know which henceforth i dialed the above mentioned ussd and checked downloaded the firmware and flashed on my s4 gt-i9505 and it was unlocked through the imei hence i never faced any issues and now u can do nothing with your device no solution imei null!!!

Nope .. No use of backing up the efs folder now ..it will backup the current imei no ... . try flashing the ROM that came with the phone and see if the imei is revived ... If its not .. Go to the Samsung service centre ... They will charge u coz Samsung doesn't have a global warranty policy .... If u wanna get It done cheaper .. Then go to a local mobile repair shop and get the imei reset .... Good luck

[Q] SM-N910C LTE not working in UK

Hi guys,
I am new to Samsung but like many I was tempted by the Note 4. I bought my Note 4 in Dubai (unlocked and not tied to any provider) but when I tried using it in the UK with a UK SIM (EE) I am not able to make/receive calls when set on LTE/WCDMA/GSM but I can when I select GSM Only. Samsung UK is not interested, Samsung Dubai poit me towards Samsung Egypt (because apparently this is an Egypt region phone) and Samsung Egypt do not understand what my problem is and keep sending my region unblock codes when the phone is not region locked.
Has anyone had this before and if yes what did you do to fix this?
AP: N910CXXU1ANK5
CP: N910CXXU1ANK5
CSC: N910COJV1ANK5
I have been reading a lot about rooting and flashing ROMs but being new to this I am not confident enough to get into all that. I hope there is a solution without the need for rooting !!!

SIM works on my HTC One and 4G signal here good so I do not think it is the SIM. I updated firmware two days ago using Kies but no change. I am starting to suspect some sort of network blacklisting by Samsung but not sure. I also spoke to my network provider and problem not with them.
I want to test the phone in Middle East first to make sure that it is not some hardware fault bit if not my only option may be rooting and flashing different ROMs. I am also hoping that Lollipop may solve it but no way to get it now as I am not rooted yet.

Download Samsung phone info from play store, check your region, also you can check knox warranty is void? U can also check refurbishment check from same app, seems to me u purchased online, not from authorised store of dubai.

This are the mine screen shot for dubai rom, u can compare.
Thanks for the screenshots. I compared with yours and it is now even more clear that mine is an Egypt phone. Do you know if I can flash the UAE firmware on my phone with or without rooting and if that would work so that the CP, SP and CSC are the same as yours rather than the Egypt ones?

Yes root is not required to flash U.A.E firmware, u will get all as mine, u need to clear cache & data before & after flashing through odin.

my friends have this similar problem and its fix
This is how "you need a working sim from the country when you buy the samsung phone"
all you have to do is make a international call for 15 minutes to the original country
example u bought the phone in egypt so u need a working egypt simcard just call the operator in egypt and listen to the operator for 15 minuts from UK after 15 minutes (make it 20 minutes just in case) turn off your phone and change it with the UK sim card
this method works for me
u dont need to flash or root the phone
just remember this method only work with samsung unlock phones from middle east

Edit (Help) My SM-G950F cell phone thinks it's 950FD (double sim)

My cell phone is Samsung SM-G950F but he thinks it's SM-950FD (double sim). Therefore, when I enter my SIM card I have no signal coverage or IMEI. Does anyone know how to correct it? I'll be eternally grateful.
Proof that my cell phone is 950F: https://ibb.co/nuMySo
What the cell phone thinks it is: https://ibb.co/dgpt7y
*I'm sure I installed stock rom G950F and NOT G950FD. So that's not the problem.

Hey,
Which rom did you try to flash and it shows that you have G950FD?
You probably flash a rom, which is it?
Also, go to sim card settings and see if there is DUAL sim settings, if it is not then there is no problem must be the model number only wrong, you can change it through build.prop ( make a backup of build.prop)
In your case i would flash AGAIN stock firmware from Sammobile.com through Odin to make sure there is no other wrong in the rom.
Can someone help me? I have G950FD which Firmware should I flash for my phone? I am using this model in the US

OK, so did you flash UAE stock rom or any other country specific rom? Sometimes wrong region roms cause this, also you can try out different modem files by flashing through odin and checking, another way you can try is to install a custom rom for the phone, those contain modem files that work with most regions, so either try flashing UAE region rom and try, or get some modem files and flash those using odin, or lastly try custom roms. If all those fail then maybe you have deleted the efs partition by some way and I don't think anyone can help you unless you have an efs backup, which I presume you don't have. Hope I helped.
