[Q] Moto X IMEI is 0 - Moto X Q&A

I went from Sprint stock Rom to Rogers Stock, while on Rogers stock I lost the imei (Baseband different) I flashed back to Sprint Rom, imei came back, then I went back to Rogers Rom, I lost the IMEI again. I then flashed a custom rom pacman 4.3, Now IMEI is still at 0. at Android 4.3 i cant flash back to 4.22 stock giving me gpt.bin version security errors, version to high. stuck on the pacman rom with imei 0, maybe i just need to flash the sprint baseband to get back the imei#. I luv the pacman rom..... Any thoughts, phone only works on wifi now....lol

Razr HD users had the same issue. I know I experienced it as well. Without an IMEI, your phone is a WiFi only device. Go to the Razr HD forum, as there is a whole thread about this with fixes. Lots of work, but worth it to get your phone working again.
Good luck!

Yep, you are stuck until the full 4.4.4 SBF is released for your carrier. Shouldn't have done that.
Who is your carrier? If it is AT&T, you are in luck! The 4.4.4 SBF was just released. If not....bummer - you will have to wait. Can't flash a ROM with a different CID with a locked BL.
I highly suggest you don't attempt to manually force the older rom. Really, beyond the fact that you flashed the wrong ROM, how did you miss all the warnings that downgrade = brick?
Tough situation to be in. Hopefully you have an AT&T unit. If so, we can help get you fixed up.
Well, I have solved it Unlocking my Bootloader and then reinstalling the rom 4.4.4 retail from Brazil. It works now.
I have a question, now I am in Brazil but I am from PerĂº, and when I try to change the APN for the one I use in PerĂº, it deletes itself, so I can not change the APN or create a new one because i can not save it. What is the problem in there?
My phone was Nextel operator, then I unlock it, never had a problem.
Hope your help.
Thanks!

SIM card detected but no service after installing costume ROMs

Greetings,
I have unlocked my Moto X 2014 victara, and installed TWRP & a costume ROM, now I am able to boot the device, but it shows no service, SIM card was detected, but no service, I did the trouble shooting as the following:
1- I checked IMEI number, it is present
2- I dialed *#*#4636#*#*: tried to enable RADIO but I couldn't
3- Flashed modem and fsg.mdm from stock ROM by fastboot, but still not working
Now even if I want to go back to stock ROM by fastboot commands it pauses at startup, but when I flash a costume ROM it goes alright, except the SIM card no service issue
Any help please?
UPDATE: I fixed it.
I downloaded Kitkat and Lollipop from this website:
http://www.graffixnyc.com/motox.php
Then I flashed 4.4.4 using fastboot followed by 5.0 using fastboot too
There are a lot of article in the community explains how to flash stock ROMs
My problem was I was using the Brazilian firmware while I have the US version. Now everything is going great.

no fix for it. Wait for oreo

There got to br some way..i can change my baseband from M8953*****e to M8953****u.
Some how i can change it to R..
And volt isnt lost...cant use volte just cause base band in bootloader is different than baseband in android settings
If you flash the right baseband you can use volte

Till now there is no way to fix it.
Volte fix methods can make your device unusable.be careful. Avoid them.
It's not necessary for volte that baseband must be "R"..mine is "e" still volte is OK.
So don't play with baseband..
Are you getting 4G signal..and your IMEI is OK.??
Recommendations:
Take a TWRP backup and keep it safe.. before doing anything, will be useful in case of emergency.

Stay On Aosp Extended..Make sure that you are getting 3G signal..!
If there is no reception of 4G signal..then pass these Commands..
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
4G will be Back.
Now take take a working efs and persist backup using twrp.!
Note:
Skip these two Commands while flashing stock..
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2

Still no IMEI on stock ROM..Restore efs backup.
Re-Lock bootloader only when you have IMEI number on stock ROM.!
Without IMEI number relocking is not recommended.!
Your Software Channel..??
Can any of the senior developer clear my below doubts:
1. Can we get 4g back on custom rom after official oreo release?
2. Camera with all stock features and stability on custom rom after official oreo release?
My story is as below :
I was on AOSP extended rom and tryed to go back to stock.
Then Lost my imei
Went back to Aosp got imei but lost 4g. At this point i was getting imei on all custom rom but no 4g on any.
Some persist file clamed to give 4g back so i tryed it but lost imei again
Luckly i had efs back will i was on aosp extended (no 4g)
Now the problem after flashing persist flie is that i am getting imei only on pixel rom, that to after restoring efs back of aosp. I tried several other roms but no imei( even after restoring efs)
Now i can't use any other rom
Will we have any working fix?
I tried all the post like erase modemest, remove sim and flash official rom etc but nothing worked
Will official oreo release help developers to fix this issues permently on custom roms?

Restoring IMEI number

Hey everyone,
After apparently screwing up flashing stock firmware on my moto g6, my IMEI number got nullified... Do any of you know how to restore it? I looked for it online but could only find methods for non-MTK chipsets...
Anyway, have a great day

I did it by flashing LineageOS 16, you need to verify that imei returns and finally flash stock ROM
