Ironass here on the forums helped me a lot with this.īefore adding the JB NeatROM, I used GSII repair and made a backup of the efs. The current version I have is this one: and it is sucessfully rooted. Some of them sent my phone into bootlooping. I tried going back to quite a few stock firmwares for UK T Mobile ( I use Tmobile pay as you go). All seemed alright except I had no service anymore.
I rooted it and added JB neatrom with a syiah kernel. It was unlocked for UK and it worked for a loong while. My Galaxy S2 was initally from Orange Romania. It helps if your device can be upgraded to Android 4.3 I decided to use Kies 3.I`m new to rooting and installing custom ROMs and in the process I lost my IMEI number ( it just shows a generic one now). ( link) Kies 2 needs to download some components before upgrading, whereas Kies 3 starts immediately. Googled some more and someone suggested using the emergency recovery in Kies. Both Kies 2 and Kies 3 refuse to recognize the phone. This time round I tried to use Kies to connect to the phone. Either the hosting service has been discontinued (hotfile), no file found or throttling was so severe, I downloaded only 50MB of 1.2 GB.īack to the drawing board. Phone is BL.Īfter a few frustrating attempts to download the required files, I still got nowhere. Image below shows Odin flashing a PDA file. Instead of the usual one file, there are three separate files to flash. In the excellent thread by Hopper8 in XDA ( link) on recovering from a failed Odin flash, he mentioned a 3 part stock flash recovery method. This reinforce my belief that changing permission of one file is not going to recover my IMEI number. When I attach the phone as a USB, I could not copy files onto it. It seems that I don’t have write access and yet I could change filenames or delete files. The version of stock that I have restored using Odin is behaving weirdly. I have found the above method did not work for me. In my situation, a friend has managed to delete the EFS folder on a Samsung Note II LTE, GT N7105. This post does not cover that procedure, you can read about it here. There are multiple guides that involves copying the nv_data.bin file and changing ownership. Both of which converts your phone to a tablet. Or you have ticked Odin’s “Clear EFS Folder” box. This can happen when the ROM you are flashing contains an EFS folder and it overrides yours. If you are reading this, it means that your IMEI and/or EFS folder is corrupted.
