OMG.... I still can't get this dern modem to load/ work! My main galaxy phone is dead dead so I went to try to resurrect my note 3 (see what I did there
). The most recent time I did a facotry wipe with TWRP, pulled the battery, did a recovery boot and tried using odin 3.09, 3.10, and 3.12 to flashN900TUVUFQD2_N900TUVUFQD2_Baseband_Firmware.tar.md5 to CP without success (yes pulling batteries, etc)
Lucky for me, I backed up my stock rom with twrp. Restored it and nwo I can use my phone!
I would still like a vanilla/stripped rom, so if anyone has a suggestion on an idiot proof rom to load, or how to keep my tmo stock radio rom instead of having to install it after the rom change, I would sure appreciate it. It's super hard to learn new stuff when you seem to be following the directions but it isn't working. Which sucks, because this rom seemed super suhweet.
I used Magisk and Team Win to load Resurrection onto my note 3.
One alternative I have briefly looked into was [ROM][N9005][ALEXNDR] BPH2, POK2 * DevBase v3.8 * Multi CSC, Safe De-Bloat, KNOX 0x0
Sorry for alerting the quoted folks below, I wanted to put most of the relevant information in 1 post with click back links for convenience

TLDR> Missing sim issue because of bootloader/modem even though TWRP shows a successful flash.
I have skimmed this thread to find an answer, but there is a LOT to get through.
I have a HTLETMO N900T and my goal was to follow this thread to install RR HLTETmo, TWRP, Magisk, [Hlte][Xenial-b26x][02.01.18][N7.1-GSM].
I had some issues because I'm android noob, so I ended up doing a twrp wipe with all the boxes checked in advanced (not sd or usb storage). Then I installed everything but the bootloader/modem tar because it was already registered with my stock rom correctly.
Everything looked great! Except when I put in the sim to make a phone call. That's when I realized the baseband wasn't listed in settings/about phone. So I downloaded the N900T version from post #1 by StockholmSyndrome and flashed it (after removing battery before entering download mode), twice, but the sim isn't being recognized.
I found this post on redit and ran "# strings /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem | grep N900" from twrp recovery and got back the correct response, indicating that the baseband is installed correctly.
"SM-N9005 This is for Data Device Only.
N900T.00
SM-N9005XITEST
N900T.002
SM-N900T
N900TUVUFQD2"
I have avoided modding/playing with andriod roms because i know almost nothing about them/linux.
I think I will really like this rom, if I can get the phone to work.
Does someone know what I need to do to fix this?
Thank you for your help and patience (with another annoying noob)
Okay. I am not going to answer your question, and you would notice that I have removed a large section of your post. I just want to say welcome, and stay with the group, read through, just ask your questions, be very patient and you will get your answers. You have come to the right place for your Note 3 phone. @vidwhal and everyone here will be chipping in and helping out.
Edit:
You would soon be compelled to move to RRO, and would find even better experience with that ROM, but while here in RRN, learn a lot, and enjoy every step. Welcome!

When I enter that string of text in the TWRP downloader terminal I get the above response that (I think) is confirming that it was flashed. Also, I did install Phone Info and attached the screen grab of it.
YES! I had read that was a known unknown issue and had removed the battery both times before entering upload mode. The two attempts were separated by booting RR and checking to see if the sim was working.
Oreo vs Nougut? I have to be honest, the only reason I'm "upgrading" the aosp is for the added control and flexibility over permissions. In your opinion, why would I want to move up to Oreo? I know so little about them that I couldn't tell you the difference between them. FYI, I had cooked a few PPC roms back in the day, but all this is now soo different than I was used to (even though I forgot most of it, anyway). I started with this thread/rom because it seemed the most thorough explanation and stable rom for my first try.
Work is super busy, and I will be back to check the thread; please don't think I've abandoned this (I **really** want to get this working)
Thank you, all!

Thank you. Do I simply unpack the tar file I have to get the seperate n900t files?
I had seen a few places to get odin but wasn't sure which sources had reliable distributions (noob).
I'll try that and report back.
Thanks, again.
remove battery, put it back and start immediately in dl mode, then connect with cable and flash the modem..
----
not in AP but in CP for modem
if you want bugfree rom stop at 7.1....., 8.1 and 9.0 have BT problems...
Try another Odin version. I used 3.10.7.
Phone off, battery out, wait a few minutes, battery back, boot to download mode, plug USB cable, flash bl & modem, reboot.
I had issues before too caused by a not compatible Odin.
I'm going nuckin futs, here.
I tried to get my note3 loaded with this rom in april, got stuck on getting the radio working, and gave up.
My current phone is about to take a dump, so I need to get this Note3 with this rom fired up and running.
HTLETMO N9000, Magisk rooted, I followed this thread to install.
I followed the instructions from StockholmSyndrom in post 1.
I downloaded the N900T basebad from that post
I had to download Odin v3.12.10 from this thread because the link provided in Stockholm's post was dead.
I am using win7 sp3, I installed SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.65.0 drivers, launched Odin, selected N900TUVUFQD2_N900TUVUFQD2_Baseband_Firmware.tar.md5 into the AP slot, unchecked "reboot", flashed, success, reboot, check phone info and get the following screenshots.
Rebooting with a sim installed makes no difference.
The files contained in the tar.md5 don't match up to the fields in Odin, so I don't know what would/should go to which fields. Odin fields are bl, ap, csc, cp, user data AND md5 files are aboot.mbn, modem.bin, non-hlos.bin, rpm.mbn, sbl1.bin, sdi.mbn, tz.mbn
What do I need to do/try next?
Thanks in advance!
----
Odin 3.10.12, tar.md5 in AP slot, tnsert battery, plug in usb, enter bootloader mode, remove the battery, upload, unplug USB upon "success" in odin.
install battery, reboot, baseband is not installed successfully.
Tried the same proceedure with Odin 3.09.5
I also tried to unzip the tar.md5 but don't know which of these files go into which of these slots. modem.bin (goes to CP, duh), NON-HLOS.bin, aboot.mbn, rpm.mbn, sbl1.mbn, sdi.mbn, tz.mbn
Any further instruction would be very appreciated.
BTW, I'm in Fairfax Va, right now, live in Durham Nc, and will be in Birmingham Al this weekend. IF someone who knows what they are doing lives in one of those places and is willing to help me, I can come to you!
I would also accept recommendations for a different rom/setup that might be more idiot proof.
Ah, yes, I see what you mean, now.
I tried so many things that I'm not %100 sure.
I will try again tonight and pay closer attention.
THANK YOU!
Is that not waht I described? Falshing N900TUVUFQD2_N900TUVUFQD2_Baseband_Firmware onto my phone using odin?
No mention of removing battery.makes baseband stick.
CP for modem baseband.
AP full firmware.
BL bootloader.
CSC. For cac
Yeah you need to remove the battery before flashing to get the job done.
