[SOLVED] IMEI lost after flashing a rom - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello,
Today I tried to flash KING OF NOUGAT v13 but my phone got stacked on Samsung Logo(+30min). I was forced to restart it(Power+Volume Up) and flash the recovery that made before flashing. To my surprise when the phone boot there was no connection(only Wi-FI). As far as I can see IMEI, Bluetooth and Mac address are unavailable. I tried different backup(I have two on SD card) but the problem was the same.
When I created the backup I made a full backup including EFC, but for some reason, it's not working.
I also tried this article , and put those commands in the terminal but no result.
I know there is an option to fix it if I flash the stock rom . But i would like to know if there is another options

there is sticky thread with info how to get imei back, so just read and follow

How to update: Bootloader, PDA, CSC, Baseband

Hi,
i am trying to fix software on my note3 but i have problems finding the right files.
There is Bootloader, PDA, CSC and Baseband but i don't know how to upgrade it to the correct versions.
For example i found Version OK9 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/direct-download-bootloaders-modems-t3258803
But there is no file to update PDA, CSC and Baseband?
I installed the KERNEL file and it changed the Kernel. Did not try RECOVERY yet because i think it could overwrite the Custom Recovery TWRP that is installed now.
In older post i also found some "CP" files for OJ6 and OK6 and they installed new version for PDA but i can not find them for OK9?
Can anybody please explain the different files and how to find the right versions?
I downloaded two files to update bootloader and PDA to OK6 but i can only update the Bootloader but PDA Version does not change.
CP_N9005_OK6.tar.md5
BL_N9005_OK6.tar.md5
The first file is supposed to update the PDA or not?
CP is modem/baseband and it does not update PDA. AP is PDA. You can find complete firmwares from http://www.sammobile.com/. These packages contains all parts together and you can find installation instructions for example from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdDgaqsYrRs.

Ah i see, thx for your help!
Hm so maybe it could be a good idea to install a untouched Stock Rom first and then go to modified image?
I have now installed N9005XXUGBOK6_N9005DBTGBOI1_DBT Stock Image with Odin.
When i want to go back to this image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-lp-tw-rom-t3027148 is it enought to just install it or do i need to wipe anything before?
I don't want all the samsung adware...
Oh it even killed the philz touch recovery...

Downgading from MM is dangerous, it mean you should use downgrading package by Dgadelha, anyway if is your IMEI null, search in this section, there is thread with manual how to fix it/rewrite it , Good luck, anyway i had it too

Hi, so from what i understand you flash with Odin so i have Odin 3.12 you should take this one , put your phone into Download Mode and when you see your phone on odin ,click on AP and choose the xxxxxxxx.tar.md5 ,from what i know you need only AP , the rest are :
BL: your bootloader
CP: your modem
CSC: this is what features you get in some countries or carriers like Wi-Fi Calling.
Not a Pro , but that s what i can do for you
EDIT: And i don t think is a big of a problem i had some devices that were screwed by me and i gave them live again ) ,hope you make it buddy.

Make sure you just choose the CSC, PA and cache to flash thru odin dont try to flash the BL that is what will cause the revision check error.
Don't use from sammobile. Use one from the xda threads.
Maybe check ,idk if u will find something important... : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785363

help A5 2017 PLEASE

Hi guys, I bought an A5 with less than 15 days everything was ok but I wanted to root to release more RAM I passed a BL file that gave an error, but changed the KNOX counter until it was ok. The problem was that the ROM looked strange with two drum menus. I thought I will pass the stock rom until then it was but after that I do not have IMEI anymore. Does the serial number only appear that can do or need the same BOX?
find misc partition failed
Odin error BL
Help !!!!
I'm not sure what you did but it sounds like you downgraded the rest of the firmware without the bootloader part. If so, that's the cause why you're not having a valid IMEI.
Try flash the latest firmware for your country/carrier.
I understand, but when I try to pass the BL file the error below does not know why.
Nand write start fail on odin

Bricked G950F with Empty efs folder

Hi guys, a few months ago I tried to install a custom rom (LightRom) and I was stupid enough to not backup my EFS folder. It stuffed up my Sim card so I tried using a tutorial which said to flash a file called fix.regalstreak. After flashing this my phone was hard Bricked and after flashing TWRP, my phones EFS was empty and no ADB command could fix it. I still am unable to boot into any ROM or stock - even though I can get into the custom Roms install page and my EFS folder is empty with no backup so how do I fix this?
Note:
When flashing stock firmware, if I try to use a pit file with combination of AP, BL, CP, CSC it fails, but if I flash AP, BL or CP it works so CSC has an Issue I think.
However, when I flash with no pit file my phone gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S8 screen.
Sorry for the long post
I had the same problem but I managed to solve it by downloading the file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/z0z69kilpala6tu/EFS-SM-G950F-31-08-2018_03-48-37.tar/file after opening in odin put the device in download mode, use odin 3.11.1 open the file in the AP tab then press start, after the procedure, install twrp and install a custom rom I recommend the hades rom 2.0, the stock rom doesn't work the only problem and the device has a null imei
Thank you so much I have been searching for answers everywhere and you have saved my phone
