(Q)IMEI turned to 000000000000000 - Samsung Galaxy Mini

hi there fellow members, is there any one can help me on restoring my IMEI. i read some threads already about the process. unfortunately i flashed the latest release of CYANMOBILE rev and the magic happened. my IMEI turned to all "0's". i dont have a back up of my.NAV_DATA or the EFS folder like what was mentioned in some threads. though my phone still functional, signal, mac add, everything seems to work just fine. i can access everything but cannot see the IMEI. im trying to find out guys if you can help me before i go to my friend's cellphone repair shop and possible JTAG this phone of mine, it would cost me 800php or more so im asking if someone can help me. any help would be gladly appreciated. tnx guys

Idk about it sry :'(
Btw imei really matters ? If ur phone is running gud without it u r nt havin any problem den jst leave i tas it is

[Q] IMEI gone to generic...

Yesterday I flashed the JB rom by Crash (oh, ze irony). It worked for an hour, but then it rebooted and hung at the Samsung logo at boot. When going in to CWM i saw that the /efs could not be found, and I dont have a backup of my efs folder.
After trying nearly everything today, i cant seem to get my own IMEI back. First it was empty, now its the generic one (0049****). Currently im back on GB because i cant get on my mobile network with ICS or JB with the generic IMEI.
I tried most of the tutorials to get it back, tried the GSII_Repair tool, none of them seem to work.
I also tried the .nv/.nv.bak removal/backupping/replacing, but that doesnt seem to help either. Problem in some tutorials is that i have to move the imei folder and the .nv_data file, both of which are not present in my /efs folder.
Can anyone help me out? The phone runs stable and fine now under GB (with the generic IMEI it can work with GB apparently), but i would really like to go to ICS again
You can use (I have a developer IMEI and I use this workaroung right now.) it with ICS or JB. After a reboot you have to change the pin number. After this you'll get your network connection. That was one reason why I used GB a long time - but today I switched to JB (eybee) and had to use this way.

I dont think i really understand you. Under ICS i cant use it, because my network doesnt allow me to sign on. Under GB it does, but id rather just have ICS or JB and my own IMEI...
if you didnt make efs backup your screwed. And no nandroid doesnt back it up. No titanium backup also doesnt.
You need samsung to fix it for you, or get someone, cvxcvx, to that, if you can prove the phone is yours...
you learned the hard way.
I really think all rom makers should have in their first post a line that says back dafuq efs up first.
Anyway, the 49 is not developers, it is test emei, and yea its banned in some countries so if, like in Uk they decide to update banned imei list, you wil lose service.

Help me Please!!!

my galaxy mini dont have imei.. I made a tutorial to unlock the phone and lost my imei. not to do, I'm desperate
help me please...
i tried flash stock rom, custom rom and nothing... i read that the problem has to do with a file called StL5, but i dont know... i hope you can help me... thanx
you are in a big trouble dude
do you have any backup of your imei partition
I lost my IMEI too, when I installed a custom from. But it's not a big problem if you have signal. Just, you can't install apps from PC through play store and you can't use the anti-theft function. And I think you can't recover your IMEI. I tried all the methods, but not success. And if you return your phone to the Samsung service, they will know that your phone is rooted, etc... Only if you hard brick your phone...There are some methods...
So which means he has to purposely hard brick his phone...
sent from a human's mind.
it means he possibly now have an Apod
I Dont have signal, i dont do nothing, the device reboot very much, Dont have Sound.... I think that is dead x.x

[Q] [HELP] IMEI lost

Hello people of XDA, i got this problem:
My phone`s (XT890) touchscreen got messed, i could click anything, so i sent my phone to be repaired.
When i got my phone back, touch was working, but network wasnt, so I used *#06# and i got this:

So, i did unlock bootloader and flash JB (it was ICS stock) but IMEI keeps uknown
Can someone help me with this? my phone just got useless without IMEI...
I hope someone can help me with this problem
Some help pls
this isn't a software problem, you may ask to the service center how repair your phone, maybe he repair with a special box...
superuser dont work, custom rom dont work, custom kernel dont work....
or he may changed the phone motherboard and you are scammed
Sorry

[q] i've messed up my phone!! Help!!

HTC One 801e Android 4.4.2 Sense 6.0

BUT ADAWAY AND FREEDOM AREN'T WORKING AND FREEDOM IS UNCOMPATIBLE. (LATEST VER.)
NO MATTER WHAT ROM I USE, WHAT KERNEL I FLASH, OR WHATEVER I'VE WIPED AND FORMATTED,
IT'S STILL THE SAME!
I AM VERRRY VERRRRRY WORRIED NOW.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
THE FORMER POSTS I WROTE HAD NO REPLIES SO THIS ONE IS ALL IN CAPITALS.
PLZ HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLZ HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OTHERWISE MY DAD'S GONNA GET ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!
I had almost same kind of situation. did alot of thigs but i couldnt make it work. turned out to be a bad battery
u must still have warenty. just put stock rom, s-on and lock it.
Send to it warenty.
I dont think simple calibration would help if u have done all those things nd nothing worked.
