hello guys ..
how are you all ..
hope you fine ..
this note 3 (N9005) lost BB and IMEI after flashing KK FW ..
so, i tried to flash another FW but still same ..
also tried to flash latest Modem and BB fixed but IMEI still (/01) ..
so, i went to EFS_Professional app and wrote IMEI from the back to phone ..
now phone has IMEI but Emergency Calls Only ..
IMEI CERT: PASS
what should i do .. ??
also, i have SPT and Z3X boxes and i can write Super IMEI with SPT or write CERT file with Z3X ..
but i don't want to change the IMEI .. i want to restore it's original IMEI.
thx in advance.
1- Try re-flashing full stock firmware for your device via Odin. To obtain the correct firmware, use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser'.
2- If that doesn't help, try this post.
backup

after many tries and wasting too much time .. i decided to use Super IMEI method using SPT box ..
so, now i have a fully working Note 3 with Super IMEI.

What the Super IMEI would be?
Can you show this IMEI?

Super IMEI is an unlock method for new models which can't be unlocked by default methods cause it has a new security which boxes can't bypass ..
To unlock your phone ( ex: Note 3 ) you have to wipe EFS first then there is a list with a lot of IMEIs for every phone .. So, you can choose one of them to write to your phone .. Now it's unlocked.
But you can't write back your original IMEI.
So, i used this method for that phone and it fixed the problem.

Hi all,
Sorry for the noob question but I have tried most of the repair suggestions in this forum all still could not get back the IMEI, Baseband, and serial number of the handset. Is there a way to program the original IMEI and serial number back into my Galaxy S4 I9505?
The handset had Hong Kong firmware 4.4.2 but with null IMEI, null baseband and wierd serial number. The handset is not IMEI blocked in Australia which I am trying to get it to work.
Would Chimera or Z3x software do this? Kies could not detect the handset for firmware update.
Thanks.

Already tried that. Flashed with stock Hong Kong firmware, modem only, etc and did not fix it.
Is there a way to find out the which is the original firmware for the phone as the previous owner might have flashed it with the wrong firmware?
:crying:
Go here and enter your IMEI. The result should pop up with a great deal of information about your device. Post the result, not including the IMEI itself, and we can figure this out for you.
If your IMEI just disappeared without you doing anything, then chances are you got a hardware failure and the your EMMC chip needs to be replaced.

Hi all,
I have re-flowed the MMC chip successfully. Is there a way to restore the IMEI and baseband without the nv-backup file?
Thanks :crying::crying:
Only if you used Wanam's EFS Backup tool to make a backup. It backs up not just the EFS partition, but the modem partitions and a few other hidden partitions as well. Otherwise you need to use methods we can't discuss on XDA to fix it.

How do I find out the if the modem and IMEI info were still there and not completely erased or gone by the previous owner. I received it with null/null IMEI baseband fault.
You already replaced the modem as it was suggested by someone upthread. That would take care of the modem. There's no way to know whether the IMEI is present or not. It probably isn't present, in which case it needs to be rewritten.

I think the IMEI info is lost so I would need to rewritten as I don't an NV_backup copy
The NV backup isn't present in the /efs folder on Android 4.4.2, at least from what I've witnessed on my own device. That's why I've switched to using Wanam's EFS Backup tool from Samsung Tool as it backs up the hidden modem and EFS partitions where the IMEI actually is stored.
If the IMEI is completely lost, you'll have to take the phone to Samsung for service. As mentioned upthread, there are other methods to fix this, but they can't be discussed here.

Thanks, in my case the modem and IMEI are already corrupted without an EFS backup so how can they be restored except for re-writting the IMEI ? I will look into Wanam's EFS Backup tool to see if I can salvage this mainboard.

Download the stock firmware from Sammobile and use Odin to flash it. Make sure you turn phone OFF before starting in Download mode.
Note there are other ways but you will need to search and read. This one is the basic method...
