Hey I'm from india and own an i9500
bought 5 months ago
I was using my phone normally and flashed a stock rom with ODIb
the phone booted up.
The problem is that I have emergency calls only and my IMEI has been changed to Fake IMEI
1) my phone is out of warranty as some moisture traces have gone into iy and samsung asks for 200$ for every small problem they need to change the board
2) I don't think so I have the EFS backup
Please Oh please someone guide me what to do?

There's a thread on that here. You could try that, but I think that without a backup, it's going to be pretty hard to get it back up. First thing I do when I get a new phone is to backup the EFS.

Did you actually tried to flash your original Stock ROM with Odin? If not, try other stock ROMs.
There's another ref link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393289
I recommend you read through that thoroughly.

Yes I did flash the stock rom with ODIN which I successively used before
I read it but this is actually getting impossible for me.
After the phone shows generic IMEI.
will backing up the efs help now?
Also I flashed CM 10.
that also didn't give me back my IMEI.
really appreciate your help
and would be really grateful if someone guides me through this catastrophe.
Also I forgot to mention that I update to stock MJ5 4.3
I read that it changes the directory of efs?
Please someone help me!

Since you updated to mj5 you'll have to use that firmware version in odin.
maybe
Maybe you could wipe Dalvik and cache memory, then do a factory reset through the recovery menu. This will reset everything of your phone, so your IMEI should go back to it's real number(you'll lose all your data so make a backup before doing it).
Have you also tested if it's not the SIM that doesn't work by putting it into another cell-phone?

Sim isn't the problem.
Also wipin dalvik Cache might now fix the problem. But I will try it
thanks
any more suggestion?
A factory reset/wipe Dalvik ain't magically fixing this. If you've gone back to stock (a rom released by your carrier) & your IMEI hasn't returned & you have no backup, you're boned. Service centre (more expensive option), or ask around local mobile repair shops; they might be able to help more cheaply.
In the beginning, i can use my note 3 n9005 SFR as usual. But once i tried flashing rom, it showed as error (fail) because I chose BL instead of AP. And i tried to fix it by follow the instructions as Mr. Firasusman suggest me as said in the this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2614787. It solved the problem my phone can now get into the normal screen but i found a new problem. I put in sim card but there is no network signal and I also lost imei when i checked in phone status. What should I do to fix this problem? Anyone, please help me. Thanks a lot.

S/N change

Check whether EFS folder is backed up by flashed rom in sdcard. If your lucky you can use backup file to get imei number back. Few posts also suggest that flashing back stock rom also get back imei. I am not sure of it. Better back up efs to your pc.

EFS is a folder in phone's file system which saves your phone model, IMEI number and lot more details, Important folder. Flashing ROM the efs folder got corrupted causing the loss of imei number. Try "radicalisto" reply and update the issue.

This fix never worked? - hmm,you have lost your EFS/IMEI somehow then. Does *#06# bring up an IMEI? - if not you'll have to search around for how to fix your IMEI (It can be done)
still need help here.
My phone is a Lg g2 from Verizon running an unofficial build of Carbon rom
The problem started when I flashed Jishnu's camera mod which made me stuck in a bootloop
Seeing that it wasn't going to get any better I tried restoring a backup which ended up not restoring at all and resulted in softbricking my phone. Although I was able to fix it when I tried using the camera it was unable to record video, thinking that it was only a software problem I thought I would be able to flash a rom to fix it, turns out I was wrong which resulted int he camera not even being able to take pictures now.
I've tried re-installing the rom, doing a factory reset, installing a new camera, flashing a zip to replace some of the camera lib files, but none of those were able to fix the camera. And I'm pretty certain that this isn't a hardware problem
Does anyone have any suggestions or potential fixes?

I actually went back to stock and it worked
Although any other rom I try and flash it doesnt work
So im now on resurrection remix with a camera that cant record any videos

Well I used the LG flash tool, put the phone into DL mode and flashed the stock verizon firmware
The action mode i used was the Upgrade DL, the only other option would be Board DL
