[Q] IMEI Number got reset :-(

Hi,
I had a bricked G1 due to wrong radio update.
Got it restored from a repair shop using JTAG. Now when i am checking the IMEI number is showing all zero - 0000000000000
Due to this I am unable to connect to any mobile network. Can this be restored as I have the number on the Box which i received with the Mobile phone.
Will it again need opening the phone or I can do it myself ?
Regards,
Chinmay
After the JTAG Recovery, I was facing this problem, so I also tried flashing the radio and the factory rom but does not solve the issue.

Does anyone have any solution ? Can JTAG solve this ?
Whoever did the work was a complete moron and wrote to parts of the flash that should NOT BE TOUCHED.
Technically, it is possible to repair.
Haven't heard of anybody with this exact problem before, so it is uncharted territory.
IMEI Number got Reset
Take it back to the guy who did the jtag unbricking.
He should be able to put your IMEI number back.
Please note a "How to change the IMEI" Faq could be used for ilegal purposes.
Hence it is against the forum rules to explain how to do this.
Hi Thanks for the solution.
I am not changing my IMEI number, just restoring the original one so this should not be illegal.
This post can be blocked if it is against the forum rules. I don`t intend to do anything illegal.

Like most knowledge, it can be used for good or evil. There would be no reason to close or delete this thread, since nobody here suggested doing anything evil and your question is totally reasonable. The main issue with being up the technical details about changing the IMEI would be that it could be used to ENABLE people to use it for evil purposes. That is why vlad mentioned about why there isn't and shouldn't be a set of instructions about it.
Got the IMEI number restored. Mobile Network is up now.
The guy who did the JTAGG Recovery mistakenly did IMEI repair is what he said.
Now its fine.

I think there is hope for you guys. I once had the same problem with my sgs2 and I searched everywhere... Until I found someone that send me a efs tar file... I told the guy it wouldn't work cause I tried everything... And I had to flash it with odin in the pda section... It totally solved the problem! I don't know where I found that guy but if you just search the net a bit longer, yoi could find it. Just search for efs tar file. It gives you another imei number so be carefull... It's forbidden in some countries...but yeah...
I also found some answers if I typed "baseband unknown galaxy note" in google. About somesort of tool...
Good luck!

Please, can I contact with you? I really need those files for fixing my phone...
You're original imei is specific to the phone and registered with Samsung and the network. If it's corrupted and you have no backup, there is no one who can restore it except samsung. You can create a new imei, but it's illegal and of no use at all. Don't get ripped off by people claiming they can restore your original imei, it's just not possible.

Have you tried flashing a 3 file gb firmware in odin? That always worked for me in the sgs1 days, if it does work get that efs folder backed up immediately

Read the post before yours. It's not possible to do it because of the unique IMEI. If you do not have your old one (written on a sticker inside your device) then there will be not solution.

LG Nexus 5 (D820)

Here is a modified QCN that i made from a LG Nexus 4 ... Don't worry i have tested the back up with many LG Nexus4/5 with no problem ...
The QCN has been modified with Zer0 IMEI so you wont have to worry ...Connect the phone as DIAG mode and, just write your IMEI using EFS Pro ...
This is only if you lost data/service and only getting EDGE, Or a bad unlock method ...
**nothing should happen but again i'm not responsible for anything that happens to your phone**

So, you write this QCN file, and that will allow you to write your IMEI?
Thanks for providing the file but we're not too clear on how to use it.

The file you give has MEID and ESN numbers and IMEI (zero). When I read from my phone using EFS Pro, these number show 00..0 except my original IMEI. I tried to write your file - writing my original IMEI in the box and just choosing IMEI. Nothing happened. No 3G or LTE. I also chose all the three numbers leaving MEID and ESN as it is. Still nothing. What did I do wrong?
PS: I am using Qualcomm NV tools which is inside EFS Pro. I could manage to connect the phone in diag mode.
may be need to copy the nv file from good phone than writ it back with qpst..................to get 3g never tried but aim lookign for nv files all over but no luck
Shouldn't the thread title say SOMETHING about the purpose of the thread?
Also a banned subject!

I thought the imei was in a. File (dot) and cant be accessed? Since having a Chinese phone that had the imei in the writable memory and i wiped with a factory reset ive allways copied and kept away from the phone. Did try to get help on here but had thread closed like i was up to something illegal!

hey,
I googled so much but didn't get an answer
I simply didn't got a tutorial, how to install qcn files...
I have repaired my phone from a 0 emei, but now 4g does not work at all and 3g is also not that fine...
So I would be so pleased if anyone could send me a step by step tutorial or send a link for how I can write that file.
Sorry for my english...
Best Regards!
Question
hi! I've recently bought a Nexus 5 which was updated to lollipop, lost 3g/4g connection and rolled back to kitkat, the problem still persists.
I've tried 5.1.1, 6.0 and now on cm12, whenever i try to switch to 3g/4g, it automatically disconnects itself from the network. Tried several radios, APN is good, and 2g works great.
This file would help me to restore 3g/4g connection? My imei is shown, so i don't have the "0" imei issue.
i would need to put the phone in diag mode, then run the qualcomm nv tools from the efs pro, and then upload your file to my phone via NV Backup/Restore function?
Thanks!

Lost IMEI and got NVRAM Warning

Hello! I lost IMEI and got NVRAM Warning after flashing Redmi 9 with SP Flash Tool. I tried lots of programs to repair it like Maui Meta, SN Write Tool etc. But I can't get the drivers working properly. Are there any other ways to repair it? If there are, could you please help me to get it working? I feel like I'm already about to surrender...

If you didn't backup your IMEI before you lost it, probably you will never can recover both of imei.
But, you can recover one of them.
You need to write the IMEI to any (newer) device that allow imei writing. (Redmi Note 8 Pro can does it.)
And then, making the imei 1 as empty/null and into imei 2 you can write your new imei.
After it, you can backup the nvdata from that phone and restore it to your device.
So, you will have only imei 2. If you try to write imei 1 too, your device will get nvdata corrupted.
Good luck.

If you lost your imei, definitely you didn't make a firmware upgrade, but a format all.

Yes, you can.
But you need a sim card from an operator that doesn't require the imei for using its service.
And obviously, you need your baseband intact.
If you try a sim card from an operator that requires imei for using its service, the sim card will not be registered.
If you want to restore the state of UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER, you need to follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4220013/

No. It will never write or recover your IMEI.
Accidently got the drivers working. Then i tried using maui meta and sn write tool to fix imei but i got errors. For example maui meta says "Write to target failed" and sn gives something like timeout error. Never felt that close...

Question How to repaire IMEI on Realme 8 (RMX3085 rooted)?

Hello,
Hello
While rotating, I dumped the entire system.
Eventually I bought a second phone and made a copy of the system (mtkclient).
After completing the system, the phone fired and I managed to root it, but GSM does not work (no IMEI)
How to restore IMEI? someone will suggest?
if you not made backup -
IMEI: seen in opporeserve2
ICCID1: seen in nvdata
serial: seen in nvram nvdata expdb
MAC(wifi+BT): seen in nvdata nvram proinfo
additionaly suggested: opporeserve1+ opporeserve3 +expdb +frp +md1img +cdt_engineering
then may be problematic ...

I think you are right about the signature here.
I made a full clone from a second identical phone and it didn't take IMEI.
I read from the Internet that the DownloadTool_RCSM tool (included with the stock rom) fixes the problem with IMEI, but after launching it requires authorization. Anyone found a solution to bypass the authorization of DownloadTool_RCSM for RMX3085?
