[Q] imei and network lost ?

after flashing beautysense v.01 onto my galaxy y s5360 stock rom i lost my imei an network. root explorer efs file is empty.
i was backup but now there is 3 files.recovery.img-boot.img-system.rfs.tar.during search the forum i just learn backup not contains efs backup.i havent efs file an efs backup files.what can i do? is the end of the my android story ?Flashing stock rom if i found is it save the imei ?

If u say u lost ur imei..
Then there's no way to recover it sry...
Bt i don't believ flashing a rom can do that...
Can u check these things for me..
1) did u mess up with the rom package or did u downloaded it from anyehere else then xda..
2) u sure u lost ur imei.?? How can u say that.??
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**

Very freaky.. Try Stock rom using ODIN If you got IMEI then there is a corruption in the rom package..

First of all keep calm.
You will need to use odin to get your phone working back.
See for docky 73's thread in dev section (sticky one). Download your regions firmware and flash with odin. You will get everything there. For how to flash with odin read second post in that thread carefully or read in deadly's guide in general section (it is also sticky)

You can any of those listed for your country/region.
Anything from outside should cause problems like data network not working etc.
You will need to flash csc of your region from odin again to fix that.

I didn't get what you mean.
Your phone is working again?
If yes you can still flash custom kernel/rom and flash back to stock rom via odin anytime.

Sorry about your phone
I in no way regret having bought a S4. I swapped it for my old S2 and I haven't had a single problem yet :good:
CF-Root and CWM (Chenglu version) works perfect and so do Titanium Backup.
As far as I know S4 i9505 have been very difficult in the matter of getting proper root and recovery.
In such a case a good advice might be to hold back flashing a bit!
So to be honest to you ... I think you just did something you shouldn't have done and IMO you only have your self to blame!

my phone is an 9500
i think i do 1 error is to use this new flasher to flash phil recovery .
for all other thing i do that with s2 and s3 without any pbm.
a bad move this time i'll give it to SAV and see

CF-AUTO-ROOT is like the greatest and one of the most easiest way to get root, I don't understand why he didn't root it that way?

I don't understand what he is saying? computer to change? huh?
I'm very to new to all this (SGS4 is my first smartphone ever) and don't want a bricked phone. Just here to gain more knowledge.
ps To lighten things up a bit, I regret a lot of things as well, like my first 3 wives.:silly: JK

finally no regrets
I do nothing wrong the firmware of S4 is young and very buggy that is the pbm !!!
about recovery i am used with recovery of S2 and S3 the recovery of S4 is ridiculous it's very small you must use a magnifier for read it and after a wipe the droid is red and it's written no data !!!! that's worried me but when i see an untouched S4 i understand !!!
for some app going quickly in standby mode after 2 or 3 flash it's gone i think it's a bad flash the first time, i hope that not come back...
i hope a lot of update a lot of new firmware that's the only thing can solve the multiples bug of youth.
to resume the S4 is really a nice phone

any other IDEA ??

any one have solution...??

To start off with there's no jellybean for galaxy y - it's probably a themed Gingerbread rom
Status 7 means the zip you are trying to flash in Cwm is corrupted or the update script is wrong
Don't know what it means in odin but I'm guessing wrong firmware or you haven't split it into its 3 parts for odin use
You need to flash stock rom via odin from the following thread - choose the firmware from your geographical region
Unzip firmware
Place
pda in pda
Modem in phone
csc in csc

You can only try different things
all odin flashable firmware is on the thread iv given you
The latest firmware is on sammobile.com however it is not odin flashable - you need to use the split tool (link on thread iv already given you) To create an odin flashable pack
search sammobile.com for your phone model number eg GT-S5360 in my case but yours will your duos gt-number

First, i do not know if you know but pro Y Duos, the firmwares of Y normal not serves ... By xda there are roms ODIN for the Y Duos, and also try some rom via CWM Recovery.
AND stay tuned. Nothing jellybean compatible with the SGY.

never go to Samsung care
guess what today i go to Samsung care to fix my phone ( if u read this thread so u know very well why i go ).
i just go there and said him to flash my phone .
he said price for flash phone is Rs.300
i say ok .
than he come after 5 minutes and say your phone can't restore if u want than change your mother board of your phone its price he said Rs.1500
i take my phone and go to other mobile shop and tell him to flash my phone and my phone fix in only Rs.150
so never go to Samsung care unless your phone is in warranty .
Thank you .

Look up and download stock-rom from a site like sammobile (or find it on this site), install the app Flashfire, and follow the instructions. Pretty easy stuff. Just remember a couple things......
always take a backup before doing anything (use Flashfire or current TWRP)
make sure you use the right rom for your variance (ie, SM-G530H, or SM-G530T, etc.)
wipe before you install the new firmware
If you have any questions, look for a forum on here that's specific to your phone. There's always someone on here that surfs these threads looking for the opportunity to help out rookies like you and I. As long as you ask it on the right forum, there will always be help available.

you sure I can flash stock rom by flashfire ??
please tell me bro. I am new in xda.

Yeah, it'll flash it add long as the file format is correct. Use Odin on a PC is the easiest way. Damn near foolproof.
