Htc one m9+ no baseband, no imei

Htc one m9+ no baseband, no imei - One (M9+) General

I have an HTC one m9+ which I have unlocked the bootloader, rooted and have super su installed.
Phone came with android 6.0 and sense 7.
I do not like what HTC has done over the years to the flip clock widget, it seems that with the marshmallow update the font changed (ugly straight font) and now an ugly location symbol in the clock display. You cannot change the flip clock font in settings (read that it's an image).
Wanted to go back to android 5.0 so the phone would look like my HTC one m7.
Tried finding an android 5.0 ruu or stock rom which the phone originally came with with no success. Even on xda links don't work or after downloading, files are corrupted.
Finally installed t. balden's clean slate Rom android 5.0 which worked but now have no baseband and no imei. WiFi and Bluetooth work. After reading many blogs tried fixing. Mtk engineering doesn't work. Mau meta doesn't work, after downloading miracle box pc said it was a virus.
Reinstalled recovery backup from twrp and went back to original factory Rom and now have baseband, imei back. Went backwards and forwards several times and every time I installed the cleanslate Rom I lost baseband and imei. Have read that the nvram might be corrupted but I am not a programmer (just know the basics of rooting).
Would like to keep with android 5.0 and get the baseband, imei back.
Anyone who can help it would be most appreciated.
Thanks, Mark.

No Mobile Service

Okay, I was able to get into pink screen by erasing the dload folder, removing the battery, and connecting to my PC via the USB cable. I then copied CWM 5.0.2.7 over and then flashed Stallion-51-ICS onto the phone. I now have a very fast, rooted and customized U8800-51, BUT no mobile service. IMEI and APN info is correct but it won't access the mobile service that our other phones access, SIM is the same one that I use in my current phone.
I know you are supposed to back up the IMEI partition and APN before flashing a custom ROM, but since my phone got broke trying to restore a full backup done with CWM I was caught off guard.
Still looking for any suggestions you all might have.

Seriously???

Not to be negative or anything but I think this is the least responsive forum on this site. I have spent hours searching for possible solutions to various problems I've encountered over the past several months, asked several questions and received little if any help. I was only able to get back from a bricked phone to where I am now by using information found on other websites. Pretty sad if you ask me.
In contrast, whenever I have asked a question on my tablet's forum I've received fast workable solutions/answers to my problems/queries. The threads are informative, well organized and contain answers to any situation I have encountered.
Granted, my current problem with my phone is my own fault for trying to customize it. And I suspect part of the problem is due to the age of this phone thus most of the "experts" have moved on to other ventures. It is also hindered by the lack of information available from Huawei and the service providers.
All of that said, if anybody has any suggestions for how I can repair the ESF partition or whatever is causing this lack of mobile service issue I would be extremely grateful. It isn't the end of the world since i have a new phone (Consumer Cellular) that I am currently using but it would be great to get this one working since it's much faster and more streamlined than my stock Consumer Cellular version.

I have experienced something similar on my regular U8800, and it seemed like there was a baseband & modem partitions conflict. In stock 2.3, there should be some kind of hwefsupdate tool, it may be renamed though. This tool gets run on the first boot after 2.3 and it restarts the phone shortly after. Try to reinstall the stock ROM, see what happens. It can be fixed in strange ways - for example, my original U8800 got a USB failure, so I sent it to the repair. I had 2.3 installed. When I got it back, they tried to write over some old 2.2 firmware, which softbricked the phone. Being clueless, I wrote the 4GB image of some other phone's image on my phone, and got everything working again. Then, when I tried to write back my original IMEI, I got the same issue as you. The only way to get it right was to rewrite the "other phone's imei".
The baseband/modem errors are actually very hard to debug, hence no replies. And since it's a Huawei, these guys have even failed to provide a good update system, as seen from the IMEI getting nulled issues. The mmcblk0p5 stores the OEMInfo of the phone, it contains serial numbers & other information about the phone (like accelerometer position up/down for example). It also has the boot image (the very first splash screen). The data is loaded onto modem processor, which provides an API to let userspace access it.

Thank you very much for your reply. It seems that you have found the answer to my problem. But unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the original stock ROM. My phone is the -51 version and any links I have found to the stock ROM are broken. There is a version I found but it is for Venezuela and I don't think it will work. I am leery to try it and totally brick my phone. My backup is apparently corrupted. I backed up my new working phone with Disk Image and attempted to restore it to the broken phone but all that did was cause it to come up to the ATT logo screen for a few seconds and then shut down. It wouldn't do anymore than that. So I restored the Stallion 3.5 image I made and am back to a great fast tablet with no phone service. I also tried backing up my IMEI on the working phone and restoring it to the broken phone but that had no effect.
It is my understanding that the -Pro version of the ROM will work, but I don't have the stock image of that either. I suspect it work might since I was able to use the -Pro version of GB on it. All of my internet searches have only turned up custom ROMs and other desperate people looking for fixes for similar problems or worse. I agree 100% with your assessment of Huawei's lack of meaningful support. It really is a shame, because these phones aren't half bad when they have been customized and OC'ed a little.
I have just about given up on it and resigned myself to using it as an MP3 player for my car system. I have learned my lesson and am leaving the working phone stock. It is rooted and I have cleaned off all of the bloatware, and set it up so most apps run from my SD card, so it really isn't half bad. At least it works.
Again, thank you for your reply and advice.

hi there, can you please give me the exact steps do to so, because im experience the exact same problem.
I've lost the imei in the upgrade process, and them flashed the 4GB image from a user, and then when i try to update to gingerbread, i can't have 3G signal, only 2G.
in the past, i had made a backup of the imei after flashing that .img file, and i think that after update to gingerbread had restored the imei and the 3g was working nice. But this time i cannot acomplish the same, don't remember very well the exact steps that i've made.
I already tried with the B517 and B518, and can't get it to work...
Can you give me some help please?
Thanks in advance

In my case, I restored the full 4GB from some russian community's provided image (it was named Huawei_U8800_FullFlash.bin), which returned my device to stock 2.2. From there I installed 2.3, and everything still worked. The problem in my case was that I could not restore my own IMEI, it never gave me connection & failed to register to a network. The only solution was to use the "wrong" IMEI that came with the 4GB image.
Huawei has some sort of backup mechanism if they think the "data" is corrupted. I can't tell how it works, but it likes to break things that were working before.

i have exactly the same phone than you, because i installed that backup too. After installed it, the IMEI SV is 36, after installing B518 it says it is 18, but before it was 17, and i had 3g signal, but not now.
My question is, wich SV is your phone reporting?
Thank you

I also have a problem like this, but I think it's a bit more severe. My phone got stuck while charging. Couldn't reboot. Was getting stuck on the aurora loading screen(using DZO 5u20). Than reinstalled whole rom. But now I don't any signal and the phone doesn't even see a SIM card. Showing 'baseband unknown' and the IMEI and IMEI SV are also unknown. Not 0's but just unknown. Is this is a similar problem? And can something be done to fix it.
I had some backups on my sd card, untill the sd-card got fried in the phone a couple of months ago.

Jiayu S3 PIN Locked by Kinguser app

First of all, I may be posting this in the wrong section. But I desperately need your help on this.
I got a Jiayu S3, and couldn't not try to flash a custom rom on it, so I tried with "Pure AOSP V1 TF".
All went well, untill i found this app which was included with the rom, "Kinguser" (should be Superuser, i believe), which game me the option to toggle root.
At first and only time I opened this Kinguser app, option root was active. I did deactivate it, and reactivated immediately after.
As soon as i reactivated root, the privacy pin screen showed up.
I didn't set any PIN on my phone, so at first i thought it could be something like 1111 or 0000. Tried 5 times and it made me wait 30 seconds. Then tried another 3-4 times.
Here began the real mess: "forgot pin" (or psw) didn't show up, but at the time i didn't even know about that recovery option.
I didn't know what to do, so I just thought that a factory reset would certainly solve the problem, how couldn't it? Well, wiped everything, but PIN lock screen didn't go away.
So, wiping everything, I also deleted my gmail account from the phone, and I lost the possibility to lock phone and give it a new password (Android Device Manager). Too bad at the time I didn't know about this recovery option as well...
Now I'm out of ideas. I think I've tried every method I could find with a search of "Smartphone PIN locked". Tried with resets, plugins, deleting files with adb..
How do I unlock my phone?
little update: after a factory reset, for 2-3 seconds, it shows the default initial screen, but it doesn't last more that and i just can't do anything.
Now i managed to bring back the stock rom, but with that i lost the twrp recovery, and i can't find a way to make pc recognize the phone to reflash it.
It seems it's going worse instead of better...

I had just bought this Jiayu S3 and planned to bring it on holidays on wednesday, but i'm starting to think i won't be able to fix it before then

Did you have any resolution to this problem. I am currently sitting in the exact same boat. Did the factory reset, pass code screen still there, I didn't set a pass code. Basically hands tied, can't update firmware, guessing i'll have to get a new phone, but hoping maybe you found a miracle cure! ha! - Thanks for any guidance. - Arden (Seattle, WA)

Just flash another rom (stock/original) and start over.

How have you done that?
Can you help please?
I tried factory reset (volume plus+ power button), hard reset (volume- plus power button), update, and nothing works; I also went to two different specialized stores and they failed to find a way to reinstall the original Android version or a recent one.
Comparing the files with the factory version installed in the phone, the phone report identified three changes:
- a new file: /system/priv-app/7mK0T6e8Z5.apk
- the lost of a file: /system/app/com.android.fallen.apk
- and a modified file: /system/bin/debuggerd

To flash firmware you can use SP Flash Tool on a windows or linux computer (not sure about macosx). You have to decide which firmware you want (which one do you have now?). The 'official' firmwares can be found on needrom. SP Flash Tool can be found there as well. There are 2 popular LP firmwares built by Jiayu resellers in Europe (Xtreme from Spain and Jiayu.de from Germany). Guides on how to flash are often present at the place where you find the firmware.

but it is for Linux... can you send me the link of the windows version?
And I could not found the "Jiayu.de from Germany": can you send the link?
Also, can you recommend some good manual for dummies?
Thanks again for your patient and help!

latest sp flash tools is 5.1532
search needrom with "5.1532" will leed you to the download page
no link allowed here, so ...
for beta 10 from jiyau.de, search google with "jiyau.de Lollipop 5.1.1 - Beta 10 (14.10.2015)".
it will leeds you to the rom.
Good hunting

I would like to add: if you come from KK and go to LP, you must use firmware upgrade to update/adjust internal SD partition layout. Good Luck! if you succeed, and are happy with firmware, consider voting @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/firmware-jiayu-s3-t3212184 (almost 100 votes)

First, thank you for your great help!
With your suggestions, I managed to install Lolipop in my Jiayu S3S (upgraded from Kit Kat) - Xtreme ROM TF (JiayuS3-5.1Extreme1.1SP.zip).
However the problem remain... the phone still is asking for a PIN (that I never had put there, in first place)...
What should I do now?

you could try factory reset and are you sure its the phone asking for pin and not the sim card

Stang5litre edition 5.0 v2 s7e brick

Hello. I'm on pi3 firmware. Verizon Galaxy s7. When I installed v2, over the original version, I followed OP steps exactly, just like when I installed the original version. Everything appeared to load fine but when it came to the setup screen, saying my phone was activated, and gave me my phone number, it would sit there for a sec, and then the screen would go blank, and send me back to the lock screen. I would have to put in my pattern each time instead of my print, because it said the phone had been restarted. I was unable to get past that point to reflash the Rom. The only option I could find was to Odin back to stock. I downloaded all the proper files from a guide on this site, but each time I tried to start the flash it would give an authorization error after working for a few seconds, in odin. After doing more research I discovered that error is usually caused when trying to flash an older firmware. The firmware on this sites was older than what I had on my phone, and I couldn't find a download of the most recent firmware. I discovered after that samsung/Verizon has an upgrade/recovery tool on their site. I was able to restore stock with that tool. Just a heads up if others have the same problem, I can't post in original thread because I haven't posted enough. Thanks for the Rom, I'll try to flash it again later. The original version was awesome.
Repair assistant for Verizon Galaxy S7, this is a windows app. http://support-us.samsung.com/VerizonSoftwareUpdateWin
This ROM blew the stock rom away. So much faster and I can't even explain how awesome the battery life is. http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...t/stang5litre-edition-5-0-s7e-rom-s7-t3453441

That's not a brick then. Or maybe considered a soft brick I dunno. Brick is when it's unrecoverable. I could be wrong though.
Sent from my SM-G930V using XDA-Developers mobile app

V2 was repaired so it didn't get stuck on the setup and lock screen. I was able to install it. I have no data now. The 4g signal is there but it's not lit up. I've tried resetting my phone, I've tried turning data off and on in multiple locations. This ROM is G935VVRU2APE1, but my phone's baseband is G930VVRU4API3. Could that be the problem? Is there a fix? Or will I have to go back to stock?

Need Instructions to avoid almost bricking again

Hi guys. I very narrowly (somehow) managed to recover from almost bricking my phone.
I successfully S-Off'd my phone, and previously successfully installed TWRP. I tried to install this ROM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...m-perfumewl-m60-dev-edition-unlocked-t3442969
When I tried the to flash the ZIP for firmware and for the ROM, the firmware wouldn't install. I tried some other stuff and basically almost bricked my phone. Some how got it to suddenly start being able to use the htc_fastboot commands (????????) and was able to start installing the zip for stock... but it ran an error, I ran it again and it froze... then I forced my phone to reboot and somehow I'm back to having a stock system. No clue what I did.
My question is, can I take a software update on my phone normally (to 7.0) , and then install just that ROM? Or so I need to flash the firmware separately with a command line command? I just don't want to give myself another heart attack tonight. Current firmware version is 1.82.605.6, not rooted, don't believe my recovery is TWRP right now (but I know how to install that one).
I'm just looking for root access and the ability to remove pre-installed Verizon crap (VZW Messager, My Verizon, etc). Thanks guys.

I recommend you install this one instead:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...m-1-85-605-9-aroma-root-root-debloat-t3529732
Follow instructions in OP...or:
1)fastboot flash FW w/o Boot w/ TWRP (htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU, fastboot flash zip...)
2)htc_fastboot reboot-bootloader
3) Finally, go into recovery-- backup and flash ROM (choose root w/ Magisk and debloat)

Thanks, I figured out why it wasn't working before. Used official TWRP, thats why it wasn't working. Wouldn't have thought that'd made that much of a difference.
New problem though; something I really would like to use the Google versions of contacts and dialers. Trying to flash those just made my phone app unusable. So I turned to LineageOS but it REFUSES to boot. Hangs on their little vertical line with a moving circle. Found out AOSP roms don't like VZW firmware? Flashed global firmware, updated through WiFi as much as possible, and then ran into issues with radio, even though I flashed the VZW one. So I reverted those changes, am going through with what you said above to have a working phone (after not having one all day), but any advice on getting Google dialer and contacts? I'd like to use LineageOS but I couldn't get it work at all.

You've got to read OPs, search threads, etc. Some ROMs work w/ our phone, and some do not. Check out the latest versions of ice and leedroid. Your most likely want to grab the SVN versions is the official versions may not yet support Verizon N firmware

I have been doing a lot of searching, but I've found so many different, conflicting sources of information. For example, one website told me to install LineageOS, was to be on latest Verizon OTA and just normally flash it; that obviously didn't work.
So from what I can see, our choices are Viper, Ice, LeeDroid, NuSense and the one you linked. I'm going to try out LeeDroid... out of curiousity, is there any reason, for example, LeeDroid or Ice haven't posted in this Verizon section with links to their ROMs?
*Edit Two* Dialer wouldn't work out of the "box" so to speak, so I had to go to Phone settings at the bottom, there is a menu called Calling Accounts. Had to go there and tap Receive Incoming Calls... why is that disabled in the first place..? But that seems to be an issue going even as far back as the Nexus 5. But that's how you find the option in the HTC 10 for anyone who comes across this issue too...

Not sure why your having issues with the flashing. Are you doing a full wipe? Not just factory reset. Going from stock to lineage requires a complete format of internal SD card. On the stock roms, most will ask if you are still on marshmallow firmware & are working fine. Again, we need more info on what firmware version your on, version of twrp& how your wiping your device. Most AOSP roms work, but no advanced calling

LOS ROMs will work without issue IF you have flashed the US unlocked firmware at some point in time. This is the only information that we have found from a VzW device with LOS booting and VzW device without. We started a thread awhile ago and is the only known method we currently know of to get LOS booting. Also works for Sprint users.

unbricking hard brick - moto x style

hey guys
i just brick my phone (no idea how, flashed android 7 firmware) after flash my phone was working for like 2 hours, then i let himself update a security options. After update my phone went brick
As far i found :
- installed Qualcoom QDLOADER 9008 driver
- found QFIL programmer
i need to have programmer path (something related to JTAG) and build xmp path
Where i can find them? Or is it a other way to resscue my phone?

I feel your pain. My timeline:
- The phone was unlocked but still in Stock Nougat (7.0?). Got that from OTA in Brazil.
- I tried to update to LineageOS 7 via TWRP. After a full wipe (everything, system, data, card, cache etc) I installed the new ROM. Turned on, bootlooped forever.
- Searching around I found out that there was no modem in the Nougat roms and for some reason I needed to flash a Marshmallow modem for my region to make that work (I think there is no Nougat modems around or something).
- I found a LA_DS modem for 6.0, flashed that using TWRP, still bootloop. Tried other roms using TWRP, still bootloop.
- I then downloaded a full stock old 6.0 firmware to go back to stock but the phone wouldn't accept some files ("preflash validation failed").
- Searched around and found out that you can't downgrade a bootloader from Moto.
- Using fastboot, I flashed the files the phone was willing to accept and it finally booted the 6.0 Marshmallow stock rom, but with no networking (radio/modem/baseband/IMEI missing).
- Flashed the 6.0 modem for my region again and everything worked. Connected on WiFi, dual sim cards detected etc.
- I started to install every update the phone showed to try to update it back to latest MM version.
- The three first updates went ok, the fourth turned off the phone to never turn on again.
Looks like there is no way out of this. My phone is pretty old and MotoCare in Brazil will charge a lung and a half for repair.

Pretty similar situation on my part. I downgraded back to 6.0 and when it tried to take the December update I ended up with the same thing as you. I ended up getting a replacement from Moto for under 100 dollars which was worth it rather than trying to find a solution that doesn't exist.
