Hello all, I tried the 4.4 nandroid from the development section which was supposed to update my 16gb phone to 4.4. The phone does in fact run 4.4 now but refuses to connect to any mobile networks and says the IMEI Is invalid. Upon going into settings and checking the status, the IMEI shows as unknown.
I have looked for a solution to this but I cannot get this phone into diagnostic mode no matter what I try. Can anybody guide me into fixing my IMEI? I am not trying to change the IMEI for a new one I just want to restore the original IMEI so the phone can work again.
Please help me.

EFS. Hope you backed it up... if not, search forums, going to take a lot of manual work in diag mode along with a couple other apps via pc port to rewrite your IMEI.

This happened to me a long time ago on my T-Mobile version and I tried everything I could think of but then I used the tool that you'd use to flash back to stock and flashed it to Android 4.4 and it kinda fixed it so now it doesn't restart much might restart every 20 minutes I never looked at it 4 that long becauseiI bought the international version. So android 4.4 doesn't fix the null imei but now I can use my phone as a media device because it doesn't read Sim cards and at least I can connect to wife so yea

bro could you please guide me on this. I too have screwed my imei/efs folder. I just got a new imported g2 phone from ebay, updated it to lollipop using lg pc suite and the phone lost its imei. please guide in detail how do i go ahead about it. I am badly stuck with a new bricked phone.
I tried to install the new version of CyanogenMod Snapshop but unfortunately afte the reboot of my LG G2 D802 the mobile phone bricked.
I read a lot around the Internet and finaly i succeeded to unbrick it. Th problem now is that i do not have IMEI (is null now). I read that there is one program that you can fix your disappeared IMEI but cannot work in my personal laptop. Do you know anything how to repair and fix my IMEI with my previous official IMEI (i have it in the box that i bought but i didnt have any backup of it).
Thank you
I am having the same problem. I was loading a milestone version of a rom and when it loaded after wiping there was no service whatsoever and everything is null. I understand it wiped the efs and I dont have a backup. I also understand that we can change the info back with the numbers off of the original box using dfa cdma tools. I have the program but my question is the 000000 code does not work when i try to unlock the phone. Anyone with any experience with this program that can help me to re write my meid???

Which program do you have?
Dfs CDMA tools
I don't have any personal experience with this, but I have done a ton of reading on this problem and it's become my biggest fear. From what I have gathered you have very very little chance of fixing this yourself. It most cases it goes back to the manufacturer. Can you tell us exactly how this happen?
I have no idea, i have been rooted for months and swapped roms like crazy. I wiped and installed a new rom and then it was getting no service so i tried to update profile and said it couldnt. Then check in the settings for the baseband and meid and unknown was shown across the board. Trying to figure it all out now!
I have had the same thing happen what cm did u install I had a d802 version on my ls980 restored it but now it will only accept a d802 modem and the signal is weak and drops out but it did show my ESN and imei and baseband again instead of unknown if I would have flashed it with a ls980 modem

Have you tried restoring a backup?
Sent from my dr87 v7 powered, Mahdified LG G2 (D801)
My problem started when I tried to update my LG G2 D8002 to the latest Cyanogenmod Kitkat Snapshop and i stuck in clockworkmod recovery loop after returning in CWM to take backup. I tried to connect it to my Laptop but i cannot have any access in my files via my laptop. The bad thing that i did is that i formated everything in my mobile (as you can see and my IMEI too) to make a clear installation of a new rom after the brick. When i entered my new ROM i realized that i have everything apart from my IMEI. So that i do not have any network-signal in my mobile but a connection to Wifi
The program Dfs CDMA tools and Octopus Box does not work in my desktop. (Any idea?)
Do you have any idea how to repair it? I read that there is a folder (nfs i suppose that encode inside the IMEI). So, if someone find this folder can upload it somewhere? Probably will find a solution to solve it.
i was solved problem with no imei :
make full buckup from TWRC in another LS980
restored that buckup in bricked phone (make first buckup on it, to know name of folder, and take to that folder buckup from work phone)
sorry for me English

@irfanbd94: You should have posted your comments to your thread instead of this one.
Take your phone in for service. Trying to transfer the IMEI of a defunct phone to your working phone is illegal, period. No discussion of how to do it is allowed.
I'm not an Android developer but really stuck here. My IMEI is reporting null/null. I have rooted the phone and tried various tools to try and fix the problem. Nothing works so far. I've have replace the modem.bin but that hasn't fixed the problem. When I put the phone in diag mode it's not recognised by my PC - it comes up as unknown USB device. Updated to the latest Samsung drivers and that doesn't fix the problem. Most fixes I've seen involve fastboot but the I9505 doesn't support fastboot so that's no good. When I try Qualcom NV Tools it recognises the COM port but when I try and connect it reports 'Unable to send SPC to Phone' and 'Connection to Phone Lost'.
Any help appreciated.
You tried flashing the latest stock ROM with Odin?

Thanks.
That was the first thing I tried... No joy. I've reverted to KitKat hoping that would do it - or at least let me try out some new lines of attack. I figured I could try NV reader/writer - but I hit the same problem with the SPC code. So for the moment I'm really stuck.
You may have to have the phone restored via jtag.

I was hoping for something less extreme...
In Qualcomm NV Tools via EFS Pro there's an IMEI read/write option. But to unlock this I need a diagnostics pass code. Where does this come from? Is this specific to my phone or something specific to the model?

Hey, I have the same problem, I guess that there's not solution yet.

Do you a have a efs.img backup ? Or any kind of IMEI/EFS/RADIO backup ?
I had the same problem I flashed the stock ROM and somehow I lost my IMEI info, I tried everything and I was even thinking about buying a z3x box but then I decided to do a very risky move , I completely deleted all the EFS related files/info and reflashed again but now I was not able to boot because I always sent me to recovery mode saying that :
"E:Failed To Mount /EFS (invalid argument )"
Then all I did was installing TWRP and rooted my SM-G935F and then I placed my efs.img backup on my internal SD CARD and went on recovery launched the terminal and wrote this :
dd if=/sdcard/efs.img of=/dev/block/platform/155a0000.ufs/by-name/EFS
Then I wrote reboot and it finally my phone was booting and I recovered my IMEI and was able to use my phone normally.
This only works if you have a backup of your EFS, and even if you do is risky , but I did it because I lost all hope and was accepting the fact that my phone would just become a useless wifi only device .
So there is not a fix yet for this problem ?
I have a problem on my s7edge instead. If i have valid imei i'am almost always in emergency calls, and when the signal comes back does not go into mobile data connection. With the wi fi no problem.Can someone help me i'am going crazy.!

IMEI, Network Signal and Baseband is misssing
Hi
I am ready to donate if any expert can help me to restore IMEI.
I am using SM-N9500 samsung note 8 model - hongkong version, i frequently change the roms.. when last time i tried to install a custom rom i lost IMEI. i am getting error like IMEI-unknown, baseband- unknown, no network and sim cards not working..
i tried installing stock rom, custom roms, it was installing successfully but only baseband, signal and IMEI are not working. i didnt even back up my EFS folder. So, kindly help me to get back my IMEI.
I have installed stock rom, still no IMEI. now i rooted my mobile and taken EFS backup. is it enough? if yes, pls suggest me the next steps. I also tried installing combination firmware, though is not working, installation was successful and also i am able to see the factory binary logo, after which it will switch off automatically and boot loops. everytime it will open factory binary and immediately it will switch off automatically..
