I really wish flashfire would work so I could just flash and be done

You have a really big problem my friend, so you're telling me that after flashing both modems nothing happen and FF still not working?

Well, try to downgrade to latest firmware of KK, I downgraded to N900VVRUDNJ6 when I lost my root on LL trying to set up the MultiSystem crap.
I think you have corrupted files somewhere on your device that is causing all this problems.

Yeah...well when I was reading the one you posted ealier with the NVbackup the dev that had this problem said he went in on a file explorer and replaced the filed that way. Well now that I'm rooted again I might be able to do that but he got his from a good copy from some one else. The files were dev/block/ then 17 and 18.. I'm gonna do my looking around and research myself. I'm gonna read what you just posted as well

I just unlocked the secret codes of my device by editing the file "efs/carrier/HiddenMenu" using ES File Explorer by enabling the option "Root Explorer" on tools.
1 Open Es File Explorer
2 Go to tools and enable Root Explorer
3 Look for the file "efs/carrier" on device and open both you'll see this "HiddenMenu" just press once on the file.
4 Choose Text and ES Note Editor
5 Edit "off" for 'ON" and bingo, save it and reboot the phone, now you can use the secret codes. :)

I've been up all night reading and looking. So this guy got these 2 from him and just copied, rebooted and was good. OK well I was reading other stuff I'm there as well but there is so much and only on page 5 lol. Was going to ask if you could do some checking with the file explorer?



^ this is just to show you what he did, if you read before this one they are saying the files have wrong dates, the size is wrong or 0 which mine are as well.



v~ if you could check in these screens if provided and either screen yours as well and tell me what the folders have in them and size too.






This is of in the dev/block folder




These are in the imei folder




If we can figure this out for anyone that has this problem that would be great. I would want this to happen to anyone else.

I just found a extra folder in your efs folder.
This one:
".Files"
I don't have that folder on my "efs"
?

Can you open that folder and take a screenshot to see what's inside?

Also does you're imei only have one file in it? Only reason I ask is because when I was reading that stuff people were saying from flashing the files had either become corrupt or missing or moved to the wrong folders
