[Q] imei null/null

how can do
i9500
baseband unknown
imei null/null
please help me

Unfortunately in this situation there's not a lot you can do without an EFS backup. A service centre can fix it.

What did you do to it ? Beware the a service might refuse to fix it if you have a custom rom into it...

[Q] Sprint Galaxy S4(L720) IMEI null

Hi, I just got the phone with IMEI null. I don't know the reason how it became "NULL". I read lot of posts and everybody says that problem with EFS partition. Will this work if i flash with somebody else EFS partition on my phone?

Its illegal to use someone else imei, try using kies

Did you buy the phone brand new? -
Download ODIN and reflash your Stock ROM completely see if it fixes it.

Take it to Samsung or if you find someone with a Z3X box or SPT tool not to sure if octopus has a full working IMEI repair yet :^)

You have to reinstall Official lollipop
If you flash and custom rom that make EFS Backup automatically, for example Ozcan ROM, you have to search a folder with this name "efs_Backup" in your "internal memory"
If you have this folder and backup
Make this instruction for downgrade to Kitkat: Here

But if i go to lollipop also still my imei and Baseband will be unknown !!

No it's not so. Revert back to Lollipop and your baseband, imei will be recovered.
I have already experienced this, have been jumping between Kitkat and Lollipop since a week because of the same problem, I guess Lollipop has updated the EFS which makes Kitkat unable to read it properly.
Hope this helped you!

Unknown imei = go to lollipop, null, generic etc need a efs backup, however you can go to a mobile shop with a octopus box or something like that.
