Anyone knows?..

well with no IMEI there isn't much you can do..that is store on a separated chip on the motherboard of the phone...IMEI is unique to all phones...with no back-up you need to change that chip or entire motherboard...as for the baseband it's easy...flash firmware for your country from samfirmware.com

with no imei the baseband will not show up,,, take it to a service center or ask your local phone repair store

Anyway to create a imei file an enter the imei under the battery?.. it all happenden when i lost it in water for a little while.. reboots every 5 minutes and no baseband or imei.. any other solution than giving it to a service center?..

No chance. Motherboard will have to be replaced

You dropped it in water...
Unless you quickly remove the battery and leave it sitting in rice for a few days straight afterwards there is nothing you can do.

In my case .. I leave my phone without the battery and battery cover on top of wifi router ( air hole side up) over night. And flashed stock based custom rom and worked for me... hope it will help

Yes that can work. But unless you take out the battery as soon as it gets wet then it's all over

Did you set up any tracking on it? Samsung dive, or Norton or something?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
it totally depends on what features you enabled on that phone when you had it. If none.. oops
else give the IMEI to cops.. they can track it in their own way

Network signal gone after rooting

I've got a problem. My younger brother attempted to root his i9305. When he rebooted his phone, everything was fine but there was ao network signal. Went to setting to check what network he was on nothing came on. Any idea what happened??? I'm suspecting it has been sim locked. But it doesn't have that sim lock thingy. .

Have you check your imei , apn and network operators???
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app
I think you have lost your imei too.
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium
Do you have a circle with a line through it at the right hand side of the notification bar? No imei in the about device settings?
If so, he has lost his efs.......
There is a walkthrough in the android development section of the i9305.
It's titled "lost imei / nv data restore" or something along those lines.
It happened to me when i had nfi what i was doing. I flashed a i9300 rom instead of a i9305 lolz. Your bro prob did the same. Hope this helps!

You need to download and flash the param binary in the sticky guide thread. Near the bottom of the first post.

Apps drawer...

I've been using the phone for like a week now..had some bugs and problems with it..the most recent one was that i can not access an app with a single tab on the app icon...i have to tap it like 7 8 times...i after playing with radio bands and stuff i somehow managed to block my phone from my network provider so i had no coverage so i resorted the phone and after the factory reset the phone was just bugless...although the app problem appeared again..

I am sure you are not using the charger that came with the phone.

I think this is the XPERIA Z launcher bug I had the same after 2 days I have looked and cant find any solution so I installed the XPERIA T launcher from here.

You really should use the Sony charger. The HTC charger may have a different output.

Heating issues and random shutdowns

Hello,OK so my gtp1000 has been rooted and flashed to cm9.1, performance is fantastic but my tab heats up pretty quick and sometimes the tab shuts down without any warning. Any fix for this?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Install CPU spy and see if your tab has deep sleep.
Then post back.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
OK now I'm using cm 10.1 with touchwiz and installed CPU spy and right now deep sleep is at 44%....what does it mean?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
Hmm.. Wrong hunch. I thought your overheating is caused by some wakelock at high speed.
The fact that you get deep sleep means unlikely that.
Have to let others chime in.
How about baseband and IMEI? Normal?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
OK how to check that?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
In the settings, about phone/tablet. You look for baseband, should be JPZ or some sort. Not UNKNOWN.
IMEI is also there in Status, should be 35xxxxxxxx not 0049xxxxxxxx or UNKNOWN
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
OK both my baseband and imei are unknown my tab is a gsm one so what to do now? How to fix this?

Recover the /efs from backup or restock and make a copy of your imei.

My P1000, flashed from restock to cm-10.1-20130614-HumberOS-p1, became hot after 5-10 usage minutes and is unstable from first minute.
Logcat and kmsg before a sample crash (browser in this case) and last_lmsg after the reboot.
Somebody have same problems? How can be fixed?
Yeah, restock and fix the IMEI issue first.
