I think you'll have to get in touch with Verizon and have them unlock the IMEI for you.

Accidentally Wiped OS and IMEI number from phone.

I accidentally wiped everything from my phone while using TWRP. This includes the OS and the IMEI number, baseband number, WIFI mac address etc. I download the stock ROM and flashed it but now my phone does not detect my SIM card or WIFI because of the missing IMEI number and baseband number. Is there any way i can get them back?
i think u installed rom of differrent model,so properly check it and download it acc to ur model,it helps.
Nope! You're busted! You can reinstall an OS, but addressing an IMEI number to your phone is afaik impossible. You now have a somewhat small tablet without network possibilities... To be short: a paperweight!

You CAN change IMEI, but discussing about it is forbidden in xda. The only way you would get help, is if you had a backup of your IMEI

Last when I checked it is not possible to delete IMEI from TWRP. How did you do that?

BTW, Mac Address Wiping shouldn't be working anyway, so the only explanation is, that you flashed a wrong ROM, which doesn't have right drivers for Wifi, SIM-Cards, and so on

Trying a different one now. I could find only 1 link when i searched for the stock from for my phone. Many people who have flashed that ROM are having the same issues (or at least Indian people who have flashed it) so trying a different one now.

I don't have a moto g4 plus, so I can't provide you a backup

Oh, sorry if I gave you the wrong idea buddy, I'm not rooting my G4 now, I'm doing an older phone. Don't want to void warranty on the G4 yet.
I'm sure someone else will have a backup you can use.

Do you think opening another thread with your first post here on XDA will give you the solution? I don't wanna be rude but there's a bunch of threads regarding that problems, from restoring EFS from a custom rom over to restore a persist file from a Moto G4.
If there would be a stable and proper solution it would have be posted here.
So you can try out the existing fixes or hope for a stock Oreo firmware to be released by Lenovo which may open up new ways to get this problem solved.

Ok thanks for ur help
Unfortunately, there is no fix or solution for imei. As for signal, that is efs, so you need to flash an Oreo ROM to get a working signal. Unfortunately even this does not always work now, but once you get working 4g etc, backup the efs partition in twrp. Do not lose this backup, you will need to use it often until/if ever, a dev finds a permanent fix.

Ya I got my imei and 4g signals back but I'm not receiving ota
I've also heard that people who have received ota and after flash the update the imei goes to 0 because of modemst1 and 2
There has to be some way. hope developers will find out a way.
BTW thanks

I would stay away from ota, it is getting risky, there is something wrong with our devices due to 64bit Oreo. To be safe, stay within twrp. If you want the Oreo update, wait for a flashable version.

Yes the efs backup will work across all ROMs.

Lost IEMI but in a different way than others.

So, Here is what happened.
I had January 2018 security patch, but I wanted the latest version. And I have hard bricked my device once, so the only way I can update my software version is 'TWRP FLASHABLE ROMS' So I used Indian variant one and I lost my IEMI number, there are no signals and I don't have EFS BACKUP.
PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP.
Try to flash a new ROM like pixel experience or whatever you want you'll get your IMEI Numbers and signal again

Now take your EFS backup. There is no excuse not to have one what with all the warnings in here.
