After I flashed my I8190 with a custom ROM it has the following problems No IMEI (null/null), CSC Unknown, no SIM Card not recognized, but my baseband is recognized (i8190xxamg4)
I read that it might a problem with the EFS folder and that it can be fixed over the nv_data file, but i don´t have the nv_data.bin file in the efs folder.
i have tried every single fix available on the Q&A Forum, flashing stock rom + pit, flashing new baseband even modemfs files and the EFS backup from the thread above but it still doesn´t work.
Does anyone have a nv_data.bin, so i can use it to get my imei back and edit it to my original one, or is there any other fix.
please help me, i really need to get my phone working again asap
thanks in advance
anyone?

Hi itamarsea, have you tried checking settings/wireless and networks/mobile networks/access point names
check if your settings are stored for 3 network.
Or check settings/ about phone/ status/ IMEI
check that IMEI number is still the same.
re setting
imei-unknown
network-unknown
imei sv-unknown
phone no-unknown
Type
*#06*
in dialer and see what number comes up.
Also what firmware are you on, jv1?
Type in *#1234# for firmware info.
It could just be a corrupt install. Iv flashed 2.3 on my sgs with odin about 5 times and tried about 3 2.3 roms and iv had no problems (Other than some buggy memory handling)
pda xwjn1
phone unknown
csc unknown
2.3 is beta A greek word for unfinished .
Factory reset that fails
Flash different rom via Odin .
You started at step two of flashing i presume and failed to backup your efs folder .

Same thing on my phone, I flashed one JPM firmware with odin and nothing, tried with gingerbread and nothing... any info would help. thnx in advanced
Hi,
I have the same issue: NO SIM CARD!
My phone is locked and today I wanted to try insert another sim card, just to see if the message: "Insert the unlock code..." appears. After this, I noticed it's not working, so I put back the original sim card and realized that I have no network and got this notification message: NO SIM CARD.
I checked the IMEI code and it's the same, any hints, tips?
Is there some kind of problem with my sim?
If anybody can help me, I'd be more than grateful.
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: I9000XXJPY
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 (Voodoo stable 5.4.1)
Build number: Darky's v9.3.XWJS5
As a few people mentioned before it's a beta rom so it contains bugs. This may be one of them. If your imei isn't a lot of 0 you probably won't have problem after they fix this bug

IMEI appears as unknown even after flashing darkys rom os a stock rom :S
I don't know how the Galaxy S stoores the imei, but my spica uses the efs partition for it, and this partition doesn't change when you reflash a rom (even if you used odin).

EFS file may change after flashing a rom enough posts on here about it .
Rule one of flashing is to backup your efs folder .
Copy backed up efs to phone to fix
Probable fix as you have flashed custom roms is to use Odin and flash stock rom that may fix your efs .

Stock rom doesn't fix the efs. There is a guy at samdroid.net who can restore Spica's imei, maybe you should ask him if he is able to do it with your phone. Check out this url: http://forum.samdroid.net/f28/complete-imei-restore-how-1817/
Sorry, I found that I9000 is not supported.
theres a post about imei and pcode prblm check the forum,if u ave a backup of efs than ur lucky.usually if u screwed ur imei thts prblm m8.flash ur stock rom,get ur phone rooted,,there r good free apps for tht.download astro or root exp or lynda file manger.u can c a folder efs check tht out first.if u ave a backup of efs u can restore.for doubt pm.....cheeerz

hi, If i change the NV_DATA.BIN file from my I9000 with the NV_DATA.BIN from another I9000 will the newly replaced IMEI work as normal. thanks
& does anyone know if the CSC is related to the Test imei that the phone reverts to if the standard IMEI get damaged... what i mean is... if i change the CSC is there a chance of Variation in the test IMEI ?
Would anyone be able to send me a copy of a working NV_DATA.BIN and .md5 from a samsung galaxy I9000 so i can try, i would like to see if the IMEI changes ? Thanks
Sorted?
Did you ever get the nv_data.bin file? I would like to try the same myself here
its illegal to use or exchange imei if u got currupt efs an don hav a bck up then take it to service...or use adw terminals an follow restporing imei thread...
Hi.
I have a problem.
Radio band lost in my captivate.
No sim card initialisation.
I put sim card in it... but nothing.
In settings radio shows unknown.
Att captivate.
Can you provide a few more details of your situation?
What rom are you using?
Who is your network provider?
What happened just before you lost your phone connection?
It sounds like you might have a messed up /efs folder, but we would need some additional information to be sure.
Rom was slim ics 4.0.4
I downloaded some programs from play market. And was playing with them.
When it lost i went back to stock gb 2.3
I have tried several sim cards... but all the same
Ok, that sounds like a bad /efs folder.
When you put in a SIM card and go to the settings-about phone-status page, do you see anything under IMEI?
Nothing.
Phone number, network, mobile network type, Imei and imei sv show unknown.
Also baseband version is unknown too
Then you have a messed up /efs folder. There is a post in the development section that tells you how to fix it - here.

Hello, I lost IMEI data from my i9305 :\
Trying to fix it whole day, but I give up now, im done.
I tried several guides (sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15196) but nothing helps.
Basicly biggest problem I face is that when I dial to *#7284# it shows "Network is not avilable" so nothing happens, or with another method with removing EFS folder, after backuping it at SDcard1 I have no .nv_data file to modify it and fix everything.
I use SentinelROM v6.0, I tried installing some modified modems, but it was retarded from me. I installed one from orginal firmware today meanwhile I was trying to fix IMEI :\
Can anyone help me?
@edit
I dont have backup. Imei and baseband - unknown ;(
I also would like to add that I know my imei (have it written down :3), but can I somehow rebuild efs based on it :3?
I feel so lucky, I flashed orginal firmware through odin and everything is fine now I just need to upload 4.4 again, and make backup for future!
That was my lesson :3 Thread can be closed.
HELLO EVERYONE.
i have a samsung i9305T i flashed it wth L.P rom then suddenly
my imei went 0049. i tried anything bUt no luck. so i decided to flash a stock one
4.1.2 my imei was back. But when i try to insert my network sim it says.
NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK . tho ived used this phone before here in the philippines
so im sure it is unlocked.
any help guys.? thank you in advance does my baseband caused the issue?
please help ...
Hi,
I'm not an expert at all but i have a theory :
I think you get a corrupted EFS. You flashed L.P rom so the format of your EFS changed to V2. So when you tried to return to 4.1.2, the phone can't read your efs anymore.
I think the solution is to flash a newer baseband, for example the L.P baseband or a KK baseband.
Read more about efs format => http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-imei-efs-stuff-i9300-including-t2393289
Hope it helps.
