Dear all, my note 3 n9005 16G lte is currently sitting in the Samsung's service centre in Taipei city, Taiwan . Recently ive found out that my note 3 is having problems with its GPS, it wouldnt get a lock on for a long period of time (10-15 minutes), sometimes it doesnt get a lock at all, and i have tried everything restoring using odin, unrooted, gps status but no luck. So today i decided to take a visit to the local Samsung Repair centre in Taipei. The staff lady told me it will take about an hour to check for its problems and get back to me after. So i waited an hour and found out that my phone is completed dead they have lost my IMEI number due to reformatting the phone (ive tested the phone and everything seems fine except it will not detect my sim card). They give me an option to repair for a price of about 250 us dollars for placing the mother board, unfortunately due to rooting the phone ive lost all my warranties. Any help or suggestion will be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance :crying:
My question is that are there any other ways to restore its IMEI by fixing it my self, kinda under budget right now. The phone was partial new just got it last November.
****Follow up UPDATES: Well guys the problem has been fixed(half fixed actually), lmao it turns out the guys at the samsung repair centre flashed the wrong firmware into my system have no idea how he did it, KOT49h n9005ztuenb5 this is the version he flashed into my system. After i got home from the repair centre along with my phone today i flashed the N9005ZTUENE2 via odin and voilà it all came back to normal 250 dollars saved!!!! however lost my 32 sgcard, GPS problem still exists and took them a week plus 4 pohone calls to them to get back to me. any ways i am very happy right now /cheers GO Brazil !!!!!GO Brazil GO Brazil!!!!

I had the same problem, baseband was unknown and INEI appears as null\null.
I have flashed a new factory rom and it solve my problem.
Try to download several factory roms and flash them, it migth help.
Another option is flashing this fix:

Hi there.
I follow this thread, but it is quite disappointing on the Samsung side.
I fully understand that you have rooted the device, and actually your warranty has been voided (legally).
BUT, from your story, unfortunately, it is not your mistake mate. Yes, you brought the device to be repaired regarding the GPS issue.
BUT again, not your mistakes to make it NULL IMEI. By right, the service center does the mistakes, they have to fix it without charges.
Anyway, glad to know you have fix back your IMEI by flashing the same firmware. congratulations
Hello,
Yesterday I got a brand new D802, I can't tell you what kernel it is or baseband because my device isn't working properly.
the problems began after I did an upgrade from D80210B to D80210D using the LG PC Suite.
after the upgrade was done, the touch screen got very erratic and I every place I've touched wasn't the right place (it acted like it wasn't calibrated)
I've tried to flash the stock ROM again using LG Flash Tool 2014 and using both Hong Kong 32GB D80210D_00.kdz and Hong Kong 32GB D80210B_00.kdz files but it didn't do any good.
I can't enter recovery mode, I get only the Factory reset screen (which I did twice and no good either).
one more thing I've noticed is that the device doesn't recognize any SIM card I out in it, at first it recognized my SIM (I have a giffgaff SIM) and after the upgrade the boot screen suddenly showed me the Vodafone logo.
I ever tried to put a Vodafone SIM in it, but the results were the same. If I'm not doing anything, the device boot itself into a loop, I can see the first screen of the initialization but that's it.
I've managed to get it to work one time but I couldn't even operate it on a basic level and the touch was erratic.
many thanks for any help that I would get.

Since the device is brand new as you implied, send it back for warranty. That would be the best thing to do, because chances are that even if you fix it after spending several hours on it, another issue might occur.
BTW factory reset screen is recovery mode. If you insist on keeping the device, let us know which kind of issues you are facing when trying to flash a .kdz.

Thanks for the reply, although it's brand new, it was bought on eBay so no can do about activating warranty and stuff.
Anyway, I tried a few more times fixing it, but gave up and put it in a lab.
I'll update next week, after it will return, what was the damage.
once again, thanks

I got the phone back from the lab and the technician told me that a screen digitizer is needed to be replaced.
Naturally, I told hime not to do that and I will send the phone back to HK to get a replacement phone.
Many thanks for everyone who tried to help me.

Hi all i have a rooted 5.0.1 Lg 340n that i tried installing twrp from the app! the c50 one! so i tried going in the recovery mode and i got a message Secure boot error i cant do factory reset or enter stock recovery and i dont have backup of my recovery ! i wanna update my phone but it keeps says that message ! any help what i can do so i can simply update my phone ?
I kinda had the same issue, so unless you have a computer and the lg driver lg flashtool and stock firmware file you're basically bricked. Your best bet is to find a corporate store and get a replacement under warranty, just don't tell them you rooted. If your phone is less than 30 days old they replace it for free, if not you can pay 15 dollars to have a new one shipped to the store in about 3 business days. I feel your pain, i hope this helps.

hello to all, my Nexus 6p, after an official update, restarted and stopped on the Google logo. i tried to flesh a firmware stock via fastboot but it does not work. the phone is original with bootloader locked, i can handle it in fastboot mode. is there a way to flesh the stock firmware? In the Nexus with locked bootloader
Thanks
ADB sideload the OTA
I cant enter in recovery only fastboot mode
BLOD?? If you can enter fastboot but not recovery and it never boots passed the google screen you might be boned.
bootloop. logo loop...
I have the same problem does not pass the logo and restart, but I can enter the recovery and fastboot.
all this with the oem blocked.
I clarify that I did not find the system of the dryer nor freezing the telephone.
exp.:crying:
I do not know how you define it ... but my nexus 6p, never unlocked, always kept original, after an ota update, has remained fixed on the google logo, with the key combination i go only in fastboot mode .. ...strange? but it is so...
how do you call it? hard brick? soft brick?
for me it's hard brick since i can not flesh the firmware ...
Fun with Warranties

I was a die hard and avid 6P fan. It was literally the best phone I have ever used...when it worked.
When I was still under Huawei's 1 year manufacturer warranty I ended up sending it in twice. Each time they sent me a new handset as they couldn't fix it.
Once I was off of Huawei's warranty I had to deal with my Square Trade insurance. They couldn't fix it either and opted to send me a check. I only bought the phone once but ended up owning three different handsets over the course of less than a year and a half.
Your best bet, in my experience, is if you're still under warranty send it in and get a new one. Huawei's US based customer service was nothing but excellent every time I interacted with them.
Good Luck,
Ben
thanks for your message, my nexus is still under warranty, sent to huawei italia, the phone I picked up after a month, they could not fix it because it is not an Italian guarantee but a European guarantee, they told me to contact the shop where I bought it, but the store is closed for bankruptcy ...
my only way to resuscitate the phone, I think I'm getting a tools that installs the firmware, having the bootloader locked ...

That sound sketchy!
Don't accept such an answer that your phone is still under guaranty but not in Italy!
Huawei are an international company.
Use this link with your IEMI to verify your device is under warranty and if it is simply contact Huawei UK for instance.

Checked with them last week and they agreed to fix my device free of charge.

Yah, I'm serious! I'll tell you in detail.
Weeks ago, when I tried to flash stock rom, I made a big mistake that made my deivice hard bricked and then I found the reason in this thread: https://in.c.mi.com/thread-1095941-1-0.html.
I immediately brought my device to Mi Support Center, they made it alive but other problems came and I posted this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/help/help-soft-brick-t3860620 (thanks for people who tried to help me)
I found that my device lost persist partition, so that I flashed it, done, however, I relized that my device lost IMEI and BASEBAND, too.
I tried to restored my IMEI by QCN file but I only got sim 1 IMEI, I flashed BASEBAND and my deivice stuck in bootloop.
After a long time, I asked for someone to help but they couldn't do anything and then I found some problems.
1. IMEI dosen't show anything now and BASEBAND is unknown.
2. I can't flash Android 8.1 or higher versions on my device, it only accepts 8.0 and lower versions. If I flash 8.1, it continuously reboot when Android One logo shows up. But nothing happens when I flash 8.0.
Three days ago, I brought my device to Mi Support Center again, they said my mainboard is broken, it need replacing but I denied because the cost is too expensive, about $145. I took it back, tried to flash 8.0 version and installed update, sadly, my device is locked now and I can't flash anything. I think I can flash 8.0 via testpoint method, but the important thing is that I don't know what's exactly happenning with my device.
Why I can't flash 8.1 version and can I take my IMEI back?
I'm tired to find the answers days and I'm thinking to sell my death device with a cheap price about $40 for screen and camera only.
Someone help me, please!
By the way, I'm in Vietnam.

How to flash something when bootloader is locked? Anyway, that's not point, I can flash via testpoint method, the point is why I can't use 8.1 and can I take my IMEI back, thanks!

I can buy a new one with the cost to replace to the whole mainboard. In fact, I accept the thing that I can't use SIM anymore, I just don't know why I can't upgrade to 8.1 or higher
