[Q] i9500 can change imei or not?

i9500 can change imei or not? my i9500 imei is 00449xxxxxx,and no network,how can do it?

Your efs partition become corrupt during the flash, hence the error. Have you made the efs backup before?
If not - Samsung Service Center is your only option.

Restore your backup of rom
If you dont have it. Flash stock rom through odin.

All attempts failed!!

Restore your EFS!
Flash Stock rom via Odin
If all failed i think, need to return to service center, you will get your phone working again.

Hi I have restored my efs I really need a qcn backup please

anyone please help

Has anyone been able to solve this yet?
I have same 000000000 issue.
I hear you say reinstall fresh stock rom, via odin, however, please explain how that will solve the problem?
I'm worried I can make it worse?
As a side note, I have another n900t that is fine. If I would get some steps, I would make the qcn backup, delete my information from the proper place, and forward, IF this is a viable solution. ...?
Be well.

You cannot use EFS folder from another one... You have a couple of solutions
1. Sent it to a Samsung Service center, or other repair shop who has special service equipment
2. Buy a box, Asansam/Z3X/SPT etc, remember to also buy a UART cable...
Please note:
If you buy a box, then you will not be able to just rebuild your originally IMEI, you will have to use Super IMEI. and you will not be able to flash a modem to the handset afterwards, as the solution will patch your modem. So every time you want to flash a new firmware, then you will have to modify the firmware package
Best regards

How to back to Stock Android 5.0 from Custom 6.0.1

I want to go back without losing IMEI

Backup EFS first, then flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com.

I Installed Stock rom And restore EFS Backup but No IMEI

Did you have an IMEI to start with ??

I Started with basic IMEI from Custom 6.0.1

What does basic IMEI mean .
IMEI is tied to your phone .

I mean i don't change IMEI
I made backup for EFS On custom 6.0.1
and after install Stock 5.0 And restore EFS Backup....... IMEI still NULL

Was the imei null before or after flashing a stock rom?

If you don't have a efs backup try to install original stock rom to recover efs backup if possible. You can do it by hand renaming .bak files in efs folder but back up everythin before that.
Also your modem may be damaged.
Good luck

Yes u do to change the imie back , your efs folder is damaged and unless u took a back up of it this method is ur best bet . i had your exact same problem and i fixed it by that method . flashing modem wont help cause ur modem is just fine it's your efs folder which contain the imie and serial number.

Modem as in the one that was on the working firmware .
See Modem/ Baseband threads in general section .
Post above is right but under certain circumstances your EFS is ok .

I dont think that would be a good idea cause the efs folder contain your unique IMIE and serial number so u cant restore the efs folder of another device . if you had null IMIE flashing modem might have fix it but it changed to 0049... That mean ur efs folder is damaged and trust me there is no other way i have found other than the one i mentioned.
