Rite now I'm on zv8. I had it on the t mobile Tom for straight talk
Also I can only get charge only and dowliad mode to respond USB please someone help
Sorry to break to you, but I don't think there's a solution at this point. I was in the same situation last month and there wasn't a solution through xda. I tried, believe me.
Try your best to wipe your phone and remove root status, and then claim LG warranty. The warranty was rejected the first time (as well as unprofessional not-returning-calls to anybody or picking up the phone), but I posted on their Facebook page and got the "executive" team to contact me. Under a week later, I was sent a new/refurbished phone, box and all.
Most stories of LG warranty are terrible though, so best of luck to you. I dealt with LG Canada.
Can you get into recovery at all? I take it you don't have a Nandroid backup? What rom were you trying to flash?

See if there's anything helpful in here...
yeah, well, go back to exact situation you made the backup(romversion on phone/etc), then restore it with the tool version you made backup with. it will require you to probably have the efs backup in the location its backed up to. my tip would be to always back it up manually somewhere else as well as remember where you put it.
but if you cant find it you did a lousy backupjob right? How is that warrantee claimable.... ?seems user error to me
I understand that u are a senior men but apparently u don't read my backup is gone I've posted that 3 or 4 times now and I know it not claimable

sorry. then there is not much you can do. There is probably a special way thats not allowed to talk about here. google about recovering imei without backup and lg g2
Model - LG - G2 (32gb) black KDZ my imei is matched with csmgdl.lgmobile(dot)com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW890995432109876543213/D80220C_00.kdz .
I recently bricked my phone and had no recover/download mode. I flashed the kdz via flash tools 2014 and noticed my touch wasn't working. I'm wondering if it's software or hardware. It also doesn't work in TWRP recovery . I also did a recover with LG mobile support tool . The touch presses multiple points on the screen and is very inaccurate requiring a mouse using usb-micro usb adapter. I searched this topic and found multiple people with same problem after flashing firmware but the thread's are dead ends. In settings it doesn't show my imei, phone details or broadband .and it seems to not recognize my sim (says service disabled). -Haven't tried fixing my service problem yet as i was focusing on my touch problem. I also entered the service menu (3845#*802#) and pressed update touch firmware with no progress.
Unless the phone gets physically abusing, 99% it's firmware related problems.

I used LG's tool to find out - csmg.lgmobile(dot)com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=your_imei It may not be correct as the kdz has chinese applications (baidu, weibo) and no google play, chrome, maps. edit - And my phone says i have 16gb so i'm guessing it's not correct. Which KDZ should i use. imei says it's carrier is - Beijing Unicom Open *BUO* .

Using my IMEI it links to the same download i linked in my original post d80220c . Did notice the serial number CSMG tool brought up didn't match mine. No on the backup thing as i was an android newb a few days ago.

With CSMG tool use model number and serial number(MSN) on the box(that the phone came)for query.

Hi, first of all, this is my first thread on XDA... this is the best site to find any answer related to phones...
Im experiencing a very hard trouble here with my LG G2 D805
I bought it refurbished from a person who made a wrong flash to this device and he gave it to me bricked... so i decided to get into the task to fix this phone... first i made it power on in the first day... the phone on the back cover, says d805, but in hardware info says d802...
i read about about those changes and it was something "common" and "easy" to fix, but hey... then i checked and had Imei NULL... and it begun to restart almost every 3 minute... this is supposed to happen when there's a wrong modem.img on the phone....
the phone says on the back that its a 805, so i went into tutorials to make the 802 root and recovery,, i got it.. then i tried all of this:
- Try to change my build.prop model number, no success
- Tried flashing 805 modems (i found 3 different), no success
- I found other tutorial where it can be fixed with tot files, and i found dll and tot for 805. no success
- Tried normal flash on lg flashtool with 805 kdz, no success
- Tried CDMA>Cs_Emergency>CSE flash, no success
- Tried uninstalling all drivers and again the above, no success
I found just one way to make it "work" and as long as i had recovery, i flashed cloudy rom... it works, doesnt reboot or anything... But the only thing I'm missing is my IMEI... it shows NULL, and also i dont have baseband, but can use everything except simcard related
the KDZ's i've tried are here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=36
I tried with:
D80510A_00.kdz
D80510B_00.kdz
D80210A_00.kdz
and its variables from countries
also tried all this steps and flashed that only tot file that i could get to find of 805: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2667258

@GTMoraes i think you choose the hard way, and i need to tell you,the phone is not a D802 now. and no one need to accept that, there are more easy ways (i past for this and i learn how to fix whithout flash a D802 kdz) than make your D805 a D802 G2:
1. Uninstall your drivers and install again
2. Just replace the the phone build.prop for a D805 build.prop reboot and flash your D805 kdz, done.
3. if you done have a D805 build.prop just edit the one you have and change all d802 lines for d805, reboot and flash your D805 kdz, done.
4. try the @monkey5i solution ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50751778&postcount=9), it works too.
5. if the 2 past ways dont work for you, do this:
- follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475045
- for the guide use this tot file http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprim...N_LGD805AT-00-V10a-724-05-AUG-23-2013-16G.zip and the attached dll file
- follow the guide and done, this guide unbrick any LG G2 Variant whit the proper tot and dll file.
6. share this post for any who have problem going back to stock or the 49% flash error.

If you truly have d802 hardware, you may have to flash a d802 modem in order to get your IMEI back. Do this at your own risk but it has worked for some of the d802 frankenphones that actually have d800 hardware. (d800 modem restores IMEI in their case)

I already tried that, it didnt work... hardware says d805, but when i recieved it said 802... i know now how to change it from 805 to 802 and back, but flashing every baseband i found for 805 and 802 would not work, took every BB for those versions in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426

You may have to attempt a fix with QPST then assuming you know your original IMEI.

But you are able to enable usb debugging and attempt a qpst fix without it rebooting? Do the reboots only occur when you try to open apps?

Need EFS backup from an AT&T D800
Hi, I have the issue IMEI = null sinse I've done an update of a rebadged D802 (really D800) from KK to LP, I tried everything i found in forums but nothing changed.
I can't use NV tools or QPST because the phone is not recognised and the connection can't be maintained.
So, the last solution i didn't try yet is to flash an EFS backup from another AT&T D800.
so, where can I find an EFS backup (with IMEI 0 or real IMEI, i'll change it with mine)
It'll be very nice if someone helps me getting my phone back to work
Thanks
I was VERY stupid. I went back to stock Oxygen OS using a fastboot image and now if I dial #*06# the IMEI box shows up but no IMEI number is actually in the box it is just blank. I did post about this before but last time I didn't really know what happened I was asking if anyone could tell me what they thought happened. I am pretty sure I screwed up the EFS partition and I am just wondering what I need to do now. Is there some way I can repair it I mean I don't have a backup. Can I contact OnePlus support? I really need help.

This happened to me a few times in the past, all I had to do was wipe dalvik and cache again and it came back. Not sure if it's the same issue but I would give it a shot. Just boot into recovery and wipe them again and see if it gets you back up and running.

I cannot use that because my device is not hard bricked and it will not install the driver since I can enter the bootloader normally.
Not sure if you've seen this post its based on the post above but I think it just uses fastboot. Don't know if it will work for you, but figured it would be worth a shot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62973446&postcount=2
I tried using the tool and it did not work, I purposely hard bricked the device to try it and still no signal or imei. Another problem is WiFi takes about 4 minutes just to turn on but I can live with that I just want service.
Basically flashing back the stock should bring back the efs. Let's see if someone has a solution. Sorry!
EFS files are unique to each phone. If the EFS is corrupt or damaged, and there is no backup, I don't know of any way to fix it ;_; You can try OnePlus support but they aren't as dumb as carrier warranty or other phone manufacturers. They'll be more likely to know what you did.
It is possible to restore your imei number, I did it on my brothers lg g2. It requires some software for PC (I can't remember the name, you'll have to google it) and the box your phone came in with the imei number. It is possible, so don't lose hope!

Is it called QPST configuration? If so all I need help with is getting the phone to be recognized by the tool. Don't you need it to be on some COM port or something?

Same problem also with my op2 . No imei no baseband
Hi Guys.
This is a Mediatek Helio X25 Redmi Pro and it came to me bricked from its owner who tried to root it the wrong way. I managed to flash an official rom and bring it back to life but as apparently is the case with these phones, the nvram has been corrupted/rewritten and there's no Imei numbers on the phone, which means no calls and stuff. WiFi works fine. I've already had permission to unlock the bootloader but obviously I can't do anything about it since the software won't ID the device. I believe I might be able to flash a backup of nvram.bin, but I don't have one from this phone, which is why I am posting this here, hoping that maybe one of you can help me by sending me a copy of his own Redmi Pro nvram.bin file. Of course I only need it to get the thing back in the system, after which I can unlock it and use the original Imei numbers. Or if someone has another suggestion, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
Search for SN writer. Then follow the steps from en.miui.com/thread-198017-1-1.html
Of course you have to have the original imei stickers for the numbers. Entering random numbers is illegal AFAIK.
This will fix your IMEI.

Thanks for the reply, friend. I have tried that, as well as almost every other solution provided on the internet apart from the deepflash cable, but I keep getting error messages. And yes, I do have the original Imei numbers and it's those that I'm trying to restore. It just seems that something has gone really wrong in the boot partition and it won't let me do anything there. I'm out of ideas. The phone works fine, except for sim service; I am able to flash roms, but not fully. There's always 3 files that won't be downloaded to the phone using SP Flash Tool. I cannot use MiFlash because the phone won't boot on EDL mode. Any other suggestions you might have, I appreciate them.
Cheers

I have tried maybe 3 different versions of Sp Flashtool, including this one. I usually get a timeout message. But I will try again. Is there any specifics I should observe regarding the mdb files I need to use? I have tried all the ones that come with the roms I've tried, but without luck.
MaYbe I misunderstood.. You said ur phone is booting fine... and u are on an official ROM. If that is so, you should not use SP FLash to fix IMEI.
SN writer is needed to fix IMEI.. MDDB_InfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6797_S00_MOLY_LR11_W1603_MD_MP_V13_18_P69_1_ulwctg_n.EDB is the MDb file for developer ROM 7.3.6 and APDB_MT6797_S01_alps-mp-m0.mp9_W17.09 is the APDB...
Click on Dual IMEI and enter the two IMEIs.. Switch off the phone before connecting to the USb cable... Make sure you use the original Mi black cable. Now connect the phone without pressing ANY button at all.
That should do the job!

Click on Dual IMEI and enter the two IMEIs.. Switch off the phone before connecting to the USb cable... Make sure you use the original Mi black cable. Now connect the phone without pressing ANY button at all.
That should do the job!

No, you understood fine; it was me who typed SP Flashtool instead of SN Writer, which was what I meant. Everything else is as I wrote. I have tried 3 different versions of SN Writer, I connect fine and it starts the procedure following the same instructions you mentioned, but it stops half way, giving me an error message. I have tried different combinations of MDB and APDB files from several different ROMs I've downloaded, but they all fail. I'm not very familiar with these things but I can follow instructions and am quick to learn. Still, I have no idea why SN Writer or Maui Meta are not working. I tried to download an nvram.bin file I got from the internet with SP Flashtool, but it would not accept it as it was for Helio X20 I believe, which is why I was hoping someone would make available a copy of nvram.bin for this particular phone. I will also try to make a deepflash cable, hoping that might get me into EDL after which I can use MiFlash to reflash a new official Rom, but I don't know if it will work.
help please

Hi there, please can you tell me where I find the files (mdb and adb)? Are they somewhere on the phone's firmware? Or somewhere in the rom i flashed?
I'm a beginner having a very similar issue having flashed a rom in rescuing a bricked phone and now have invalid IMEI numbers.
Thanks so much
