Why would you want to - it's one of the only verifiable pieces of information a buyer can trust. I suspect noone will help you with this.

Yes... you are right,... in case of selling the item, but i bought it as a present and i want to offer it as new... but it's not
we are on a forum so... any question is ok

i know of no way to do this. It is not erased when updating a rom, so it is stored somewhere else within the hardware of the phone. I suspect that it is hardwired somewhere along with the IMEI, and so you cannot delete it.
Best not to tell people something is new when it's not, huh?
and no, not any question is ok. Ask about warez, changing IMEI numbers and generally how to screw people over tends to get a chilly response in most places!

FIXED by ODIA-Complicated efs

Hi xda,
i am in a serious problem with this EFS , i was using congition H3 rom and i decided to goto Batista70 FOXHOUND EDITION 2.4. from there my problem started, my gameloft games were not working like 9mm and nova 2, so i had to reflash twice, on the second reflash the games started working but i lost network, my product code, my mac id for wifi and bluetooth, i got the generic IMEI-004999010640000, i was never aware of EFS and its use coz its never mentioned in the ROM sectioned(i think that should be the first thing custom ROM pages should have in big red words that back up ur EFS coz it Important)
Anyways the batista had backed up my EFS but i deleted as i was not aware how important it is-genius me, i dont have any EFS back up with me and i have tried all the forum in xda and on the internet but failed to fix it, I am from INDIA and out of 4 prepaid carrier one is working i dont how but its working with the fake IMEI but the other 3 are getting rejected-no network, i have flashed back to first firmware phone came with i.e-I9100XWKE8, service centre in mumbai are asking for lot of money to repair it in which i can buy another phone, IS THERE A MESSIAH out there who can help me as i have always looked up XDA for solution and has worked for me. This is my sincere request and i am ready to donate both xda and the person who helps me $20 each as i understand its a hard job to do and it require skils. please help me out with this. Thank you

I can't help you (assuming you have tried deleting nv_data.bin & nv_data.bin.md5 and rebooted) but I can tell you why it still works and thats because it's not a fake IMEI but a generic one.

update
as i have mentioned in my first post that it was working the stock firmware however it stopped working with that. i tried cyanogenmod 7.1 and its works like charm, still the IMEI is generic but i use my phone with hsdpa, wifi and bluetooth, but again im restricted with one sim card, other wont work, can somebody other help me with the EFS. please and thank u in advance

Do a simple search in the sgs2 forum. IMEI as keyword should show you several threads wich possible solutions. Read, try and ask again if nothing helped.

EFS fixed
hi XDA,
I knew there was genius out there who can resolve it and i am really thankful to god that i got in touch with ODIA because of Northern Loop post the ODIA is a Super Dev http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103357. He really fixed it and I did not had any backup, I WILL REPEAT I DID NOT HAD ANY BACK UPS AND EFS WAS MESSED UP. Service centre just sucks as they don't have any knowledge, I have attached the proof that Odia has fixed it and the guy is EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL in his work. I always believed that the issue can be fixed as there is nothing like cannot be fixed in mobile phone, bricked phones can work again why not corrupt EFS can be fixed?, ODIA proved me right and im sorry for those who dont believe like segunmichaelolu
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332125, U need to trust developers they go through a lot of hardwork even sometimes working through out the night to find a solution for one of the most complicate EFS files. Thank ODIA and THANKS XDA
P.S-IF U APPRECIATE HARD AND SMART WORK I DON'T THINK ANYONE SHOULD HAVE PROBLEM PAYING SOMEONE WHEN THE ISSUE CAN BE FIXED. THE PERSON HAS NOT LEARNED THE ART FOR FREE OR GOD TAUGHT HIM HOW TO FIX IT

I need help too fixing my EFS
I don't have a EFS backup either, It does not show the IMEI, No service even when a simcard is inserted and indicates unknown Baseband in the phone info section. I'm willing to pay $20 for a foolproof solution that will permanently fix My SGS2 I9100, Restore it's IMEI to the Origianl one and have it working normal again. So if bryanfuryin22 Says Odia performed a genius miracle for him I believe He can do the same for Me
*Fingers Crossed* Odia tell me you can fix my problem?

The chances of Odia seeing this post are pretty much zero, since he has never participated in this thread.
Send him a (polite) PM, and wait patiently for an answer.

Since Odia isn't receiving PMs at the moment, and MIGHT have a notification set to alert him when he is mentioned, I'm posting here instead - similar "lost" IMEI problem on a Captivate (due to rooting sloppily 2 years ago when I was younger and braver), now gun shy about fixing it on my own after reading all of the 9-step guide thread. If Odia sees this and is willing to assist, a PM would be welcome.

I think you'll find Odia hasn't done this sort of thing for a very long time due to being overwhelmed by n00bs who didn't take EFS backups. Take it to a local mobile repair shop now rather than putting yourself through whatever period of hopeful anticipation only to have that hope dashed (I'm just being honest with you here).
Edit - Also, as your device has it's own dedicated fora, you're not even allowed to post here. I'm asking mods to move your post back where it belongs (my point about Odia no longer doing this stands though).

This thread is a year old, i would suggest making a new one or looking for a more resent next time.
Now that being said, you can recover you IMEI by flashing stock kk4 with Odin (which can be found in the stickies). Of you're already on gb or up, use the non-bootloaders version.

I don't exactly get your post.. You could've been useful instead of being "honest" (harsh).

Being honest with people is about them having a working phone again in the shortest possible period of time rather than faffing around with snake oil miracle cures & all kinds of ridiculous promises in threads on here which simply don't work.
But eh, if you want to build the OP's hopes up with a bunch of stuff that has no hope of working only to have the realisation that the fix I mentioned in my PP is the only way dawn on the OP in a week/two weeks/whatever & have them without a working phone for that period, knock yourself out.

His (the guy i quoted) issue is very well recoverable and I'm here to help him do so, I'm not sure what your point is. It's not like I'm letting him rot for weeks.. I gave him the solution right away.
Flashing stock kk4 does restore your IMEI (95% of the time).

Unlock locked frp Huawei p30 pro..

Hey guys!
I'm sure there is a lot of posts like this one but I couldn't find the right one so if someone finds it please share
So my problem is that my dad bought a Huawei p30 pro (Vog-l29) and little did he know about the google account.. I did a factory reset and now I'm stuck.. Any ideas how to fix it?
I'm far from pro in doing stuff like this but I'm familiar with a lot of ways so if some one with more experience could just point me in the right direction with names of programs and files I would be very thankful! I've read a lot of ways to do it but then they mention that it won't unlock it.. I have a USB cable for it and a Windows computer, do I need something else?
Would really appreciate some help!
Thanks in advance!

Ask your father his password and 'voilà'.. You'll be good to go!

Funny one! The Google account belong to the seller.. Didn't think that was hard to get, so yeah asking my dad won't help.
Please can I get some helpful answers..

LoL you're welcome (^_-)
Usually, looking for frp bypass means a lot things...
If not, just try 'frp' on the search bar, there's subjects about.
And, of course, you could also go to an official repair center : they'll unlock it for you.
Good day

Yeah I get that, it might be hard to believe randoms here but in this case the phone isn't stolen.
I've already tried to search around but I don't get everything I read about it, like I said I'm far from pro in this area.
Would really appreciate some help to fix this..

Hi. I guess the easiest way is to flash the factory image to the phone.
Look here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...orial-vog-l29-flash-firmware-153-usb-t3928793
When I flash new firmware my Google account is gone and I have to enter my information to start the phone with my account.
Its not that hard to flash the firmware. Follow The guide.

You must have online emails and ebay or whichever site you used logs from the sale/purchase, phone number of the seller had to come from somewhere
How did you pay for it? Bank transfer/Paypal, both have paper trails/logs of the seller
Find it hard to believe you have 0 proof of purchase and 0 methods of contacting the seller

It was a seller on a facebook-page. He had written the price and a phone number so my dad called him and they spoke about it. The wrote 2-3 messages and that's it. Not much. Paid in cash as well.

Go back to the FB page and look him up
Next time don't buy dodge phones (likely stolen) from random FB people, there's usually a reason why FRP is locked

I know, my dad didn't know about this, he thought it was like the old days when people still were honest..

Probably doesn't matter anyway, even if you did get back into it, if it is stolen it will soon be IMEI blacklisted and be useless as a phone in your country

Thread cleaned up a bit.
First of all, xda does allow threads regarding FRP bypass as long as it's clearly not for illegal purposes.
Second, if you think it IS for illegal purposes, report it! Don't reply as if you are a Moderator of this site or flame the member. This could land you in hot water.
I'll quote some of the rules here since it's MY job to do so:
2. Member conduct.
2.3 Flaming / Lack of respect: XDA is about sharing and this does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) or rudeness. Flaming or posting with a lack of respect is unacceptable. Treat new members in the manner in which you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instructions when you can, showing them respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.
2.5 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do so. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably quite a few people with less experience than you, who could benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.

Thanks but that post is actually incorrect. I assure you we do allow them unless it's clearly breaking the law. It all stems from the introduction of FRP when devices were being sold without the Google account being properly removed. Many users found themselves in this exact situation. They purchased a device that had been simply factory reset. Which was enough before the introduction of FRP but now when they set up their newly purchased device, they are asked for the previous owner's password.
Therefore xda has allowed these threads as well as the actual methods of bypass to be posted. There are legitimate uses.

@djcedric Thanks very much for your explanation. I've closed the thread as this is exactly the discussion that we don't support regarding IMEI's. Then I correctly understand that you do not intend to repair or restore the original IMEI but want to change or edit it.
Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed your thread! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.

[CLOSED][repair imei problem] Unlock blocked imei/replace blocked imei from all ISP Pixel 4 Flame A13

NOTE: Previously I warned that changing IMEI is an action that is prohibited in some countries, and it is a crime if it is not your device. USE IT AT OWN RISK!!!
before getting to the point I will explain how I got into trouble like this, at first I bought this pixel 4 under normal conditions, everything worked as it should, until when I realized something in the morning that my signal was lost, the ISP was read but could not be used to receive and send SMS as well as make calls, strangely when I changed to The other ISP is still working.
then I searched for info on the internet and I assumed that my Pixel 4 was imei blocked by one of the ISPs, not all of them. I have tried many ways to solve this problem but the results have never worked, until I found an idea what if I replaced my IMEI with the IMEI of my old device that was not blocked, and it worked.
First Remove sim card, download all the tools needed then follow my guide step by step if you want to succeed, let's go
{Mod edit. Oswald Boelcke}
I have tried this method and it works without any problems, you need to remember that IMEI will be blocked again if you do a factory reset.
If you don't understand or have something to add to this method, feel free to ask, I'd be very happy if I could help, let's discuss

I've always found these Qualcomm IMEI fixes to be really hard to stabilize, but thank you very much for posting this. I haven't ever tried QCN method before, so this should be interesting!

just try it, but remember to use it at your own risk, I recommend using a tool like the unlocked tool for Samsung, because the processor used by Samsung A13 is an exynos processor, while this method is for Pixel 4 which uses a Snapdragon processor, as long as it uses Snapdragon and can enter diag mode, I think all phones can use this method, but I doubt this method will work if using an exynos processor
