Hi All,
i've got a weird problem, first of all i got root acces and unlocked bootloader.
after that i installed cwm. 6.0.3.1 as recovery.
i made a nandroid backup of my standard LG rom and tried a lot of different roms (carbon, CM10.1.2 stable, CM10.1.2 nigtly)
but every time i get the same error,
no simcard dected please turn of the telephone place simcard and reboot.
but my simcard is in place when i put back my nandroid backup everything is fine.
but i'm still on the standard LG rom.
first i thought maby my bootloader wasn't unlocked propperly but i can flash kernels and i have cwm running.
please help me out i really would like to use the great roms for the dev. here.
Greetings

Ok a little update.
i got something weird. i got cwm running
i thought i had my booloader unlocked propperly but...
if i do first
adb reboot-bootloader
than
fastboot oem unlock
i unlock the bootloader and take out battery put it back in reboot in recovery flash everything i want start up.
and it works. no errors at all.
but.... when i reboot my phone it looks like the bootloader get locked again because after reboot the error gets back again no simcard dected.
maby anybody could help me out with finding out how to fully unlock my bootloader?

Thank you for your reply
the weird thing is when i look in the hidden menu it says unlocked.
all the comments is see there is people not getting the unlocked sign in the hidden menu
Iam able to flash a custom rom bu after a reboot i think the bootloader is locked again even it says in hidden menu unlocked

Ok guy's maby you got tiered of my messages but i hope someone is willing to think together with me.
like i mentiond in my post above a got a simcard error when installing any custom rom.
i tried these things.
first complete factory reset in hidden menu and lg-update tool (after installing with LG tool all my apps where still there?)
check if my bootloader is unlocked in hidden menu and it's unlocked
reroot my device
install cwm
install custom rom ----> no simcard dected.
i'm still thinking it's something with my bootloader so.
what i did install custom rom.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
reboot ---> simcard dected and i got connection.
but after a reboot i got no simcard dected again.
when i do
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
reboot
again the simcard is dected.....
so as long is i don't reboot my device it's possible to run a custom rom but if i reboot accedently i've got no simcard acces..
maby i try this? to fully clean install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723
i'm getting desperate.....
For whatever reason it seems like your phone isn't actually unlocked. I'd roll back to official JB, root and do the whole unlock procedure from scratch to make sure it is done correctly.
Was your phone SIM unlocked by default or was it on some providers network? Had faced similar issue when I routed my Desire HD which was on AT&T network. Had to patch it with superCID and all started to work fine. Try looking into SuperCID for your set . I hope this helps.
Also see if it works well if original ROM is installed again.

We don't use SuperCID on this device (I'm used to that from my old Desire S). The 'official' JB with bootloader unlock route is reported to have provided SIM unlock as well, but I can't verify as my device was unlocked when I got it - I never buy network locked devices.
Thanks for the reply's
as far as i know i've bought a unlocked phone non branded (on stock rom it accepts all different simcards).
i did a new rom install with the LG-software and i did re-root my device and i installed cwm agian. but.... all my apps were still there, so i'm unsure if it was a real fresh install.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723 maby i have to try this....
if i use the offical command to unlock my device it say's welcome to fastboot.....
when i use the unoffical way it keeps saying your device is allready unlocked....
but as mentiond in fastboot commands
(bootloader) secure: yes
(bootloader) unlocked: no
what does that bootloader secure mean? when i look in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723 it says's off...
thinking and trying really hard.
:silly:
Official bootloader unlock procedure from LG AND the one that works for everyone
Some people still think that
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
is the right command, but guess what: it isn't so please don't use it
Please follow below directions to unlock bootloader.
1. Turn on the phone with SIM card, and wait for connection to the real network.
2. Wait for couple of hours.
3. Connect your handset to local PC with USB cable.
4. Enter "adb reboot oem-unlock" in DOS command window.
5. Reboot handset and you can see the bootloader unlock guide on your phone.
6-1. If you press volume up key, handset is bootloader unlock status.
You can download custom image using fastboot command.
6-2 If you press power on key, user doesnot accept unlock bootlaoder and handset normally power on.

I couldn't get this method to work, so ended up using the 'alternate' method (the one you have been trying), but this should be the way to do it.
thank you tomorrow i'll try to get a complete clean install of my JB by flashing it manaly with .kdz files.
when i do this right now
adb reboot oem-unlock i get in the welcome screen of fastboot and no unlock option.
(i think it's because it should be unlocked?)
but first of all tommorow try to get a complete fresh JB, maby first rollback to ics?? and than flash again JB?
will try a bit tommorow.
if somebody else got some great idea's please shoot them here i'm willing to try almost everything.:silly:
From the security and unlock status, it seems obvious that the phone is still locked... Don't know how it is allowing custom ROMs...
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
nope i don't understand it eighter, but i can't get in the unlock mode again....
so maby first revert back to ICS? flash JB again. and try again.
the weird thing is the rom accepts custom kernels....i've tried to flash werewolfjb kernel and iodak and it doesn't give any error as long as i'm in the stock rom...
greetins wim
That seems like a good idea... If you have original ROM backup, restore it and start from scratch...maybe things get a bit clear then..
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
ok did a rollback to ICS but forgot to put back the simcard and when i did i did it the worng way big big dummy mistake.
tomorrow new try and after i installed a fresh JB ill install a fresh CM10.1.2 fingers crossed
ok small update,
i've tried to install some custom roms after i did the whole flashing and rollback to stock.
i got EternityProject's CyanogenMod 10.1 for LG Optimus 4X HD running with data connection BUT... at the first start up it showed again no simcard dected. after playing a bit i saw there was an connection and i were able to surf on the internet on my mobile data.
i did a reboot and i saw again no data connection but after like 15 secconds there was it again.
so it looks like it's worken with some little hiks but it works
maby it needed the complete fresh install.
i'll wait until kholk finishes his android 4.3 project so i'll give that a try untill than i'm on stock rom with Optimus Prime 2.53 and i love it i got 2.5 hours screen on time.

Hi guys,
i tryed to unlock the bootloader to flash the Custom-Rom from Huawei, because i got a retail demo mode. the mate s is from from my store.
i wrote a mail to [email protected] but didn't get a answer.
Product: HUAWEI GRA-L09 (Mate S)
SN: UBE0215909001951
IMEI: 867108020124023
Product ID: 03532770
What can i do now?
Thanks for support.
Best regards
We must flash via the terminal b114 rom (boot , system , recovery ) , by cons if you do a restore from the system settings , it will return to demo mode. I do not find a solution for this part
Well, I have been trying very hard to unlock my bootloader on device MotoG5s plus and had no luck.
Everytime I use command : fastboot oem get_unlock_data, I get error message Unlock Data Unavailable.
I have checked OEM unlocking and USB Debugging but problem still persists.
Also, I have been gone through Motorola forms and google but got no solution.
When I use fastboot getvar all I get, (bootloader) cid: 0x0000
Please Help:crying:
Same issue
Have you found any solution ?
Same issue comes in my device..... :crying:
I got same problem my Moto xt1804 stuck on dummy bootloader and I can't flash stock rom..

Well I know it's quite late to reply, but after trying too many times I just wasn't able to unlock bootloader. Moto forums are totally ineffective. I waited for weeks for their answer and when they answer it doesn't help anyway. After a lot of research, one common theme comes out that this problem arises if your phone has been to servicing for any reason. Some one out there was saying that the problem is related to some jTag issue, it can be fixed if you have the hardware setup for jTag. But since I didnt have the h/w setup, so solution is not verified. So if someone is too keen to find the solution, he may look into it or otherwise switch to a new device as it would be easy and less painful.

After entering 9008 mode, you can flash the file through Xiaomi miflashtool or QPST tool, and then open one click to unlockbootloader.If you use Xiaomi tools, you need to rename prog_firehose_ddr.elf to prog_ufs_firehose_sdm855_ddr.elf. Use QPST tool, need to change EMMC to UFS !!!

In EDL mode, after flashing the file, enter fastboot mode and run the command to try it. It can clear the unlock information of the phone and let you return to L1 is no longer L3.

(bootloader)

Hi. No I was not be able to fix it neither. I will wait for next update and finger crossed I guess...
Any update so far? That drive me crazy too. After unlock bootloader by using EDL method, i have accidentally get the wrong persist.img (wrong size) then when flash back i've lost the serial number (but i find other way to get back the serial number). If you understand what happened to bootloader and L3 security please help. Now i can not unlock bootloader by Asus apk anymore.
Have anyone been able to relock the bootloader and get back Windevine L1?
Did anyone reached out to Asus on this? Eventhough warranty is lost, the phone should report properly SafetyNet and all the needed security properties to Widevine.
Still no update regarding L1?
I kind of regretting unlocking bootloader using EDL method
After re-locking the bootloader, have you tried the below command once and checked what it returns? Safe to use!
Code:
fastboot oem check-fuse
The below command might also be available and may help with something. I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE BELOW COMMAND AT ALL SO USE IT AT YOUR RISK THOUGH after doing some research
Code:
fastboot oem set-fuse

Dear everyone, i'm just a newbie on Phone and stuffs like coding or decoding.
Let me explain clearly what happen to my phone recently and why i have open this thread for asking for seriously help.
From the very beginning i have follow instruction from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/asus-rog2-cn-phone-flash-ww-root-t4008229
It said we could change the vendor code from CN to WW by edit COUNTRY from persist in 9008 mode (mnt/vendor/persist) or lately called persist.img without Root or unlock bootloader the device (which lately breached the fuse by using command fastboot oem check-fuse in fastboot).
Anything not gone wrong until i reach the step called "1.ReadPersist.bat" and it return the "persist.img" with not correct size of the file;
less than 32.768 Kb, but i didn't recognize until finish using Ultra Edit (hex edit) and write back persist.img (which has wrong size of package).
That make my device show not correct serial number as is: C4ATAS00000
Also recognize that the device is triggered Widevine Security from L1 to L3, Device is not certified in Google Playstore and other annoying problems.
My phone is not rooted and not unlocked bootloader then i have no reason why they show me L3 widevine even i have reflash raw firmware, unlock and relock bootloader.
After get contact with other Asus ROG phone 2 user, i have able to get a new persist.img and start to looking deep down what has contain inside persist.img
First effort, i have identified that in persist.img contains:
1. IMEI (second imei) (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
2. Serial number (SSN) (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
3. ISN (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
4. Wifi MAC Address pool (able to find it via command fastboot oem system-info)
5. Bluetooth MAC Address. (not able to find it anywhere )
Use the same way as before, entering 9008 mode, edit new persist.img to match with items 1,2,3 above; then write back file persist.img to my device.
My phone now has gained back Serial Number, able to unlock bootloader via Official Asus apk on Homepage, resolve some major issue such Device is certified...etc
I also have tried to unlock - relock bootloader to perform root or so on but no luck to restore widevine L1.
A lot of people in my country has same problem as mine, i will be very thanks if anyone has any idea what has triggered widevine from L1 to L3 when we flashed wrong persist.img into Device.
If anyone concern about my persist.img which has L3 widevine security and L1 could contact direct to me via inbox/pm.
Thanks.
Anyone? Please?

I don't think you can get the widevine back because you have changed your system. I did a similar guide and now I don't have signal.

Many people have lost signal due to flash raw ROM via QFILs, I and my friend is working on this problem and try best to work it out. We have Qcn backup right now and try to edit, convert it to correct imei/meid. No signal right now. For EFS, both of us is not rooted/unlocked bootloader yet (it takes us a lot of time for backup and restore those 40Gb data on phone - during day works) then please wait until we get new things.

I mounted the persist image in this and it's basically empty with no actual files. I don't know enough about this and don't want to go pointing fingers but I suspect that is where I messed it up.

Thank you very much sir! I've tried this while this does contain more files than my current persist which is just empty folders it has not fixed my signal issue.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/rog2-android10-twrp-wzsx150-t4027313
This TWRP tool has more backup partitions and I think it could be useful in your quest.
I'm not sure which partitons I need but I suspect efs is one of them.
ALSO:
I assume you edited the persist image and edited some things as I the SSN number I put my own one in. It still has no signal , was there anything else you have changed?. I have and cannot power on the phone's modem with the phone code *#4636#*.
Help me sir, i cant update dan unlock my bootloader since my phone show wrong serial number C4ATAS00000
I also did the tutorial for this topic 9008, serial number lost asus tool gave widevine L3 network error persist all changed.
I was already trying to fix it for 2 months. I went back to CN ww for many times without counting the raw RAW wink countless times, several versions and nothing.
Until I found your topic that really saved me and I believe it will help many because in that period I saw many reports of people trying to use the Asus unlocking tool and reporting a network error as well as me this occurs when I lose Rog's serial number .C4ATAS00000.
I recovered the serial number, IMEi, ISN. And it was even converted from CN to WW.
Grateful friend for your effort.

If anyone concern about my persist.img which has L3 widevine security and L1 could contact direct to me via inbox/pm.
Thanks.

Dear everyone, i'm just a newbie on Phone and stuffs like coding or decoding.
Let me explain clearly what happen to my phone recently and why i have open this thread for asking for seriously help.
From the very beginning i have follow instruction from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/asus-rog2-cn-phone-flash-ww-root-t4008229
It said we could change the vendor code from CN to WW by edit COUNTRY from persist in 9008 mode (mnt/vendor/persist) or lately called persist.img without Root or unlock bootloader the device (which lately breached the fuse by using command fastboot oem check-fuse in fastboot).
Anything not gone wrong until i reach the step called "1.ReadPersist.bat" and it return the "persist.img" with not correct size of the file;
less than 32.768 Kb, but i didn't recognize until finish using Ultra Edit (hex edit) and write back persist.img (which has wrong size of package).
That make my device show not correct serial number as is: C4ATAS00000
Also recognize that the device is triggered Widevine Security from L1 to L3, Device is not certified in Google Playstore and other annoying problems.
My phone is not rooted and not unlocked bootloader then i have no reason why they show me L3 widevine even i have reflash raw firmware, unlock and relock bootloader.
After get contact with other Asus ROG phone 2 user, i have able to get a new persist.img and start to looking deep down what has contain inside persist.img
First effort, i have identified that in persist.img contains:
1. IMEI (second imei) (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
2. Serial number (SSN) (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
3. ISN (able to find it via command fastboot oem device-info)
4. Wifi MAC Address pool (able to find it via command fastboot oem system-info)
5. Bluetooth MAC Address. (not able to find it anywhere )
Use the same way as before, entering 9008 mode, edit new persist.img to match with items 1,2,3 above; then write back file persist.img to my device.
My phone now has gained back Serial Number, able to unlock bootloader via Official Asus apk on Homepage, resolve some major issue such Device is certified...etc
I also have tried to unlock - relock bootloader to perform root or so on but no luck to restore widevine L1.
A lot of people in my country has same problem as mine, i will be very thanks if anyone has any idea what has triggered widevine from L1 to L3 when we flashed wrong persist.img into Device.
If anyone concern about my persist.img which has L3 widevine security and L1 could contact direct to me via inbox/pm.
Thanks.

How do you edit persist.img and where's the position of the imei and others in persist.img? Because I tried to open persist.img using Hex editor, but I'm confuse because I don't know where's the imei, ssn, isn, wifi and bt. I lost baseband, imei and wifi.
can someone please help me ? my ROG2 is dead, but lineage and omni roms boot the phone but no sim card and no touch screen, i have to connect OTG mouse !!! so i think it's caused by a corrupted persist file, and when i write : fastboot oem device-info the phone returns random numbers !!!
