Bought brand new AT&T Note 2 on eBay from verified good seller in the US. Phone was on 4.4.2 unfortunately....so I just decided to try a VR Toxin rom, phone just boot looped, no matter what I tried. With and without modified kernel. Then I went back to stock NJ2, flashed TWRP via Odin, rooted using CF-Auto Root....Then restarted...booted up fine...except for UNKNOWN IMEI/BASEBAND ERROR. I googled the fixes for it...none work. Basically, as soon as I flash ANY non-stock recovery (CWM, TWRP) I get a corrupted IMEI/BASEBAND. I'm wondering if I got a bad phone? Or, is there an issue with some corrupt file/part of my phone? Is there an ODIN file that could COMPLETELY flash this back to EXACTLY stock? I've Odin'ed this and tried different methods about six times...only to get the same error every time. Even after restoring the backed up EFS info.

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!
