[guide] workaround - no network / imei = 0 after flashing custom rom - Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers

Hi, all
To anyone experiencing IMEI = 0, therefore no cellular network, this here is a workaround. This happened to me firsthand, and I thought I should pay it forward and share with anyone who experiences this.
Your IMEI is not lost, it's just sitting there. You can see it in fastboot using "fastboot getvar all" command, and in the "Barcode" in bootloader menu.
Any attempt in writing IMEI via QPST tool is futile, because our device is write protected.
I have recovered my IMEI by doing the following:
1. Install Validus-sanders-8.1.Beta.1.3-OFFICIAL-20180128-0506.zip
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850488560
2. After 1st boot in Validus you will see that your IMEI is now recognized, but still you are missing 4G. To recover this, reboot to bootlaoder and reflash the modem using the following fastboot commands:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Reboot to connect to 4G.
3. Important: Reboot to TWRP and Create EFS Backup!
(Optional)
4a. Reflash stock ROM via fastboot, flash TWRP and restore your EFS partition using the backup you made.
4b. Reflash using TWRP flashable stock ROM in the thread below by @Ae3NerdGod and restore your EFS partition using the backup you made.

GPS doesn't work-TWPR not wipe/restore cache and others partition

How to fix this? what file I should flash in fastboot or recovery?
Maps and others apps not recognize mi GPS
2-When I wipe cache partition or restore, twrp says error
(3.0...)
I have a moto x xt1058 with rom epsilon project (flashed over 5.1 stock) *When I flashed stock 5.1 with fastboot, fastboot give some errors.
sorry for my bad english
As to the GPS, clearing the modem using fastboot worked for me.
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
You might need to your device's stock NON-HLOS.bin as modem before issuing these commands. Download your device's latest stock firmware, extract the requisite file and flash it with the following command.
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
I do not know how to help you with issue number two. Maybe just try flashing the official TWRP image again.

Thanks for this. Wish it was up when it happened to me. I was ready to try and take back the phone while it was dead and hope they didn't try to turn it on. Lol. I loose my 4g everytime and 3g sometimes after flashing. In theroy I can do this after flashing a custom rom to get my 4g back right? I hope so cause I'm gonna try it. Once again, thanks for this!

You don't need to do all that - just flash stock (remove SIM before flashing and pop it back in after you've booted to stock).

On my experience, I have flashed every stock ROM for xt1805 there is as it is my model, flashed and reflashed modems, cleared modemst1 and modemst2 to no avail. IMEI=0. I removed​ sim before flash and popped it after booting, but still same result. It went on for almost 2 weeks. One thing I noticed is that the modem version becomes MSM8953_27.36.07.41u while the version in the xml file in stock zip is ***.41R. I don't​ know what that means, I flashed the latest firmware for xt1805. I am thinking that the letter stands for your region (u=US, e=EMEA, etc). My phone now after it has regai ed IMEI is ***.41e. Maybe it's a mismatch of modem since the bad flash that wrecked my phone and it changed something​ that makes it swtich to the right bands. I'm not quite sure though.

Fwiw - I'm in the us, my baseband is 40e, so I think you might have the us firmware.
Where did u get the firmware? And how are you flashing it?
Edit , just noticed your baseband is 41e , disregard the above - but - do answer the questions.

Q: Where did u get the firmware?
A: I got the firmware I am using here:

Q: And how are you flashing it?
A: I am flashing it by following the sequence in flashfile.xml. I put it in a proper syntax in notepad and paste it line by line.

Sounds like the flash procedure is correct , as long as each step flashed successfully.
I believe you mentioned flashing every firmware available - including from firmware center?
If so - all I can say its contact your carrier - if it was ok out of the box, and you've flashed the original firmware, it should work again.
Good luck!

Your link to my twrp stock zip 404's, just saying.
I am following this so far, but i can't figure out where you got those files from:
fastboot flash modemNON-HLOS.bin fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Are they from the ROM you decided to be your Stock ROM? Because the Custom ROM doesn't contain those. And i am not sure i want to put just some random ROM Files in there...
Thanks for the help you provided with this Thread so far anyway =)
Edit: I tried it with the Files from the Stock ROM and it actually worked =)

Then what?
I am.coming from regular Moto G5 where this was a problem too. The solution over there was, if you are on a custom 8.x oreo rom, you needed, before going to stock, flash 32 bit twrp and a 32 bit rom. Then, after first boot, you could go back to stock with no problems. Just got this one and not planning to move from stock as I feel official oreo is right at the corner, but give it a try like this and report back if you were able to

Recover IMEI via Chamelephon app.
I probably know a simple fix for that!
I too lost my IMEI of my smartphone so what I did was -
· Root your smartphone.
· Install Chamelephon app from Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cryptotel.chamelephon
· Open the app and grant root access.
· Now enter both IMEI into the text box. If you don't know your IMEI, just check your phone's retail box where the pricing and all other stuff is mentioned. There your IMEI should be mentioned. (Or you can just enter any random IMEI if it's legal)
· Now tap the reboot option.
· Your phone will now reboot and BOOM ?... your IMEI should come back.
Hope it works for you.

TWRP asking password everytime after flashing stock rom

I want to flash arrow os for sanders moto g5s plus but after flashing my imei and signal were gone so i flashed stock and got imei and signal back but i want to flash arrow os and restore twrp only efs and persist. but the only twrp which has option to backup persist is this https://unofficialtwrp.com/update-unofficial-twrp-3-3-1-for-moto-g5s-plus/ but everytime i flash , it gets encrypted and i have to format data but after formatting data and i reboot into system so after rebooting i go to fastboot mode and then go into recovery mode but it goes to stock instead of twrp i flashed earlier so to get into twrp i have to flash it again and after flashing it again, it gets encrypted and again i have to format data so i am unable to make backup of persist and efs, i alreday have persist and modemst1 and modemst2 bin files but i dont know how to flash them
this encryption problem only occurs in twrp 3.3.1-0 not in previous but the previous versions dont have option to backup persist

Twrp - you have to boot back into recovery from twrp after install to get it to stay.
Format data to decrypt phone, after installing rom, flash magisk to keep device from encrypting again.

Important part is root after os first, after that it doesn't matter. Best to flash everything in same twrp session
95% of the time persist isn't the problem,
You just need to reflash this from stock
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

One more thing that I have noticed is
My baseband shows
M8953_50.59.07.96U(no Sim and imei)
Whereas in stock rom my baseband shows
M8953_50.59.07.96R (this is working)
Also if we edit fstab.qcom from inside the phone with file explorer and remove the force encrypt and verity flag will it remove encryption after reboot

LOOSING IMEI AND BASEBAND VERSION / SIM showing NO SERVICE

Whenever I try flashing a custom ROM i either loose my IMEI numbers and baseband version or simply get a NO SERVICE. The most recent custom rom i tried was Pixel Experience android 10, for this ROM i had my IMEI numbers and baseband version but got a "no service" - it did however detect my service provider.
Also when i flash the stock ROM back i don't get data(imei and baseband) immediately, i have to perform 2 OTA updates to get them.
So here's what i tried, flashed stock ROM did the 2 OTA updates to get my SIM to work and took a TWRP backup of EFS. Then flashed custom ROM and restored EFS but still didn't get the SIM working
I also took an entire backup of the stock ROM but when i try restoring it i get an error " Extract tar fork 255" in TWRP - now i believe this has to do with the fact tht i'm unable to flash TWRP recovery when on stock ROM (i keep getting a "no command" when i boot to recovery like this) but instead i have to directly boot into twrp every time - fastboot boot twrp.img and when i do it this way TWRP asks for a decrypt(?) password for which i press cancel.. which leads me to believe the backing up doesn't work properly because of this.
Any idea of to fix any of this?
Try to flash validus rom then back to stock.
While flashing stock skip
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
Then flash whatever you want.
And also in twrp try to repair data partition. Decrypt message could be bad disk sign.
I faced this issue, can't get 4G signal and speaking myself "how can validus rom solve this problem, nah just another silly solution"
But it solved!
flashe stock (august19 ROM) using codes
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
