"Original thread"
Hello everyone,
Well, back again with the problem that can't find any solution anywhere.
I've opened a thread about fake imei on this site earlier which can find a solution already. Now the imei and the S/N become original one but the phone still can't make any call. I found the thread about a patch that can fix this issue but it works with NOTE2 and S3 only... so, I'm afraid to try that with my S4 GT-I9500 since it's very hard to find a fix for its problem... I don't want another problem for my phone now...
So, the status of the phone is unlock, root, on latest stock firmware(I9500XXUBMG1), Baseband is I9500DXUBMF8,
Software status on phone: Network=Unknown, Mobile Network Type=Edge:2, Service State=Out of service...
When I check with AndroidDump the Telephony said:
IMEI=(my original IMEI)
CallState=IDLE
DataActivity=NONE
DataState=DISCONNECTED
NetworkType=EDGE
PhoneType=GSM
SimState=READY
CellLocation=[16427,50572,-1]
DeviceSoftwareVersion=01
Line1Number= (it's blank)
NetworkCountryIso=th
NetworkOperator=52018
NetworkOperatorName= (it's blank...again)
SimCountryIso=th
SimOperator=52018
SimSerialNumber= (my sim serial number)
SubscriberId=52018961057xxxx (this is my IMSI)
VoiceMailAlphaTag=VOICEMAIL
VoiceMailNumber=1802 (this is the voice mail number of my sim operator)
Now, let's go back a bit for earlier problem of my phone...
It's been stuck on Samsung logo(bootloop) because of EFS folder corrupted(Error mount efs)
Solution: I forced the efs to mount by enter the command in Terminal Emulator on Recovery mode, then the phone reboot normally with wifi connect but fake Imei(004999xxxxxxx) and S/N 00000000000. So, I can't make any call since then but can connect wifi.
After that with the fake Imei and S/N all zero I've finally found a mobile repair shop that can write the original Imei and S/N for me with the SPT Box. So, my phone has the original Imei and S/N now but when I try to make call it said "Not registered on network"
If I choose the network manually(My operator is DTAC) it will be Network(DTAC)unavailable... If set to choose automatically, it looks fine but when I attempt to call it said "Not registered on network" again...
The phone still can connect to WiFi, as usual... but can't make call...like before fix the Imei and S/N
Contacted the operator of my sim already and they said it seems to be the problem of the phone so, I have to contact Samsung... but my phone has no service with Samsung coz it's the phone from another country and it's been root already...
I've tried every way I can(found on this site and other site...) None work...
So... anyone has any idea why my phone can't make any call???... and HOW EXACTLY TO FIX IT???
Thank you again for you time and help...

I have the same issue. Anyone help.
I have checked the IMEI was clear.
i dont know if this helps but i had the same problem ....the exact same problem you are having ,only its that i was having it on the note 2 , also i didnt have the warranty cause of the same reason as yours,so eventually i fixed it after 4 month ,
i first installed the miui rom, then flashed the dmg1 modem on my phone and used the ariza patc, i think it has to be done in the same order cause i had done all three of those before but to no result.maybe you can try this...

This is why you should always back up your EFS folder. If your IMEI ever gets lost you can restore using the EFS backup folder very easily.

You were ABSOLUTELY right. I had done NOTHING wrong, my IMEI had been blacklisted by a weird mistake of a mobile company.
I'll explain my jourey, in the hopes that it can help somebody, since, I HAVE A SOLUTION for every single case of this issue.
1) When I got my gt-i9500, of course I rooted it, then i proceeed to flash PAC-ROM on it, but I had to go back to Stock (Arrow Modified Version) since PAC-ROM is FULL of glitches ans bugs.
2) After a week of being using ARROW, i got the "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK" problem. Not instantly, no, AFTER A WEEK OF USING AS MY DEFAULT ROM. I got really scared, since I DIDN'T MAKE A BACKUP OF MY EFS FOLDER, and when I review my IMEI, it wasn't even the 00049... generic one, it was null/null. So i shat my pants, thinking I had ruined my S4 for good. But I started reading. First i had to get my IMEI back to its original form, and then work around the network issue (THAT'S THE ORDER, ACTUALLY)
3) So I downloaded a whole bunch of modems and tried one after one, with no success, some of them put the generic IMEI on my phone, some of them got my IMEI back to null/null. I was worried and drinking industrial quantities of wine at this point. So i went for the obvious but way more boring solution. I TRIED FLASHING STOCK ROMS on my S4. I live in Perú, so I only have 2 choices to do this, and actually my carrier stock rom is not even listed on SamMobile.com (I'm on Nextel Peruvian 3G network). The 2 choices i tried, neither got my signal or my IMEI BACK. I started going desperate, but keept on reading.
4) Tried the MTK Droid Tools to recover my IMEI. I had never even used The ADB android interface before, but learned rather quickly. Got my S4 connected, shell rooted, and still couldn't change my IMEI; since MTK Droid Tools (and please trust me on this one) ONLY WORKS FOR THE CHINESSE/KOREAN VERSIONS OF THE S4. So don't even bother, you might learn ALOT about the android ADB interface, but won't fix your IMEI.
5) Finally I started downloading a bunch of Stock roms in order to get my IMEI fixed automaticaly by flashing them through ODIN. And the I stumble upon THIS ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=17396 WHICH SEEMED like a divine answer from heaven since, just by flashing it, got me back my ORIGINAL IMEI.
6) At this point i had discovered that INDEED the MODEM: I9500UBUBMG9 does get your IMEI back to its original state. (That's your answer). SO, I was in a Stock rom, with my original IMEI, bu had NO FREAKING SIGNAL WHAT SO EVER. STILL HAD THE "Not registered on network" FREAKING problem. So I, finally, gave up, came here, and got the answer that It might had to do with my IMEI being blacklisted. I refused to believe so, since there are this stories on the internet, that you can actually screw your EFS folder by installing a custom AOKP rom without backing it up, and that there's this "RF CAL" file that only samsung knows how to fix and once it's corrupted, you won't be able to connect to any network, ever. BUT HERE'S THE THING, THAT story IS A LIE.
7) I went to NEXTEL (My carrrier) support (They sold me the phone) today, and YES, OMG YES, my IMEI had been blacklisted, AND HERE'S THE CATCH: ANYONE (At least that can happen in my country) ANYONE, can call your mobile operator, reporting your phone has been stolen, and the op will block NOT ONLY YOUR NUMBER, but your freakining IMEI, blacklisting it, and making it IMPOSIBLE for you to get connected on ANY network.
SO Here is my conclussion to this WEIRD case:
1) If you have the NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK and you have the WRONG IMEI issue (Meaning, your IMEI is the generic: 00049... or Null/Null) , flash via ODIN, THIS STOCK ROM: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=17396, just... flash it, I DON'T CARE IF YOU'VE READ THAT YOU JUST NEED THE MODEM, I garantee that if you flash this stock rom, your IMEI will go back to its original state.
2) If your S4 is on an Stock Rom, and you have your original IMEI; and you still can't connect to your network, It means your original imei has been blacklisted, and you NEED to talk to sammy or your carrier to fix this, or contact someone who can undo this situation.
That's it. I hope that my journey helps someone that is trying to get this "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK" issue solved, as I've been trying to for the entire weekend. Just... don't give up. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/good.gif

it's so amazing that the mobile company staff have so much power, isn't it? I thought the report process should be a bit more formal, with a note from the policeman or something. Otherwise it's so easy to get fxxked up for doing nothing...

Had the same problem like you before. You must have done something that altered the Baseband/Modem. I will assume you haven't made an EFS Backup. What you can do is this, download a stock Firmware and manually flash is. Just be sure that the firmware you will download is meant for your country. After flashing, try to see the IMEI of your phone. If the correct IMEI shows, then try making calls, text and connect to your mobile data. If not, then try flashing any modem meant for GT-i9500. If the problem still persist, then your last option would be to change baseband antennae or worst, replace the board itself which can only be done by technicians which has the proper replacement parts.
Thanks for answering, i flash my device with my country oficial stock room, after that im still having the correct imei but cant make calls, say no service and no registered on network, i have efs backup, but after restore nothing happend =(

Guys please help me out...
i got very big problem: i bought phone from hands , with warranty etc. everything were awesome, till i flashed lolipop. when i started to using it , it showed up problems with network, in my city very often i get not signal, and cant registre to network, try again later. I asked in ROM treads noone answered me [its not rom problem i guess]. about 5 days i checked solutions none of roms helped.
i changed sim card, i tought it could be faulty- no
i changed phone number i thought it is faulty- no
i changed carrier , YES it worked, but 3 days later, im registred in network, but signal is very changing, and today i cant register in network[in the same room]
i checked imei *#06# and there were big problem, imei wasnt like on note 3 box , and backcover, it is like 14950000168.... /01 , and i cant find solution, how to get this imei back. i checked with root broswer, efs folder- there is no file .nv_data , or anything that starts with.nv. i checked *#0011#, IMEI BYPASS : PASS from carrier side.
i dont have any backups, nothing. im so afraid that this 300eur phone is only wifi device.:crying:
is there any wait to get back this imei :S ?
guaranteed compensation , if suggested method will work. [PP]
like approvment i can send images of note 3 box/warranty check that its my property, thats not stolen device.
I tryed very much options. If needed some kind of detailed info. just say, ill get it.
hope for good advice.
sry for my english.
Faithfully, Berils.
any idea guys? suggestions?
bump :S
Buddy, I am not sure if I understood you very well.
But you can try to go settings - connections - more networks - mobile networks. Then change the Network name from WCDMA/GSM to WCDMA only.
I have done that & it has worked for me. I have done few more things that helped me to resolve the issue. Please let me know if you need any help.

the biggest problem is that, that i have knox 0x1 , and i got no imei. i readed my carrier warranty rules: IF IMEI is deleted or changed the will not repair.
fck.... im so exhausted of finding solutions.
ill try to set up lolipop again, and i hope now it will reset all partitions, and will create nv.data file, and other imei stufff.... finger cross.
stay up tune. will report.
Hi,
Let see if someone can help me.
Im trying to help out a friends cousin, he came here to sweden from the war and hes mobile dosent work, so he cant call back home to contact anyone there.
This is what i need help with.
He have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910C and he bought it in turky, to be avaible to use it in hes contry they had to root it in turky (this is what he said) and they rooted it for him.
But the dident seem to leave a backup of the orgininal efs map or anything, have checked the phone storage and even the SDCARD he bought at the same time that he have never formate.
So since the IMEI number is wrong he cant connect to any network here in sweden, the IMEI number goes to some Philips phone.
So i tryed to restore the IMEI to the one on the back of the Note 4 phone, i though i was succsessfull since *#06# shows the right IMEI number now, that match the one on the back.
But when i go into Settings->About Device->Status the IMEI number is still the Philips one, i tryed to recreate and remove the efs folder but ended up with NULL or 000000000 IMEI at Device status.
Can someone help me? me rly wanna be avaible to call home and do video calls with rest of hes family still at home in the war.
I even tryed upgrade firmware and downgrade i have tryed a custom firmware and official.
Tryed changing mode firmware and everthing, been trying to get it to work for 4 days now.
And he dont have any money to buy a box to fix the phone.
Thanks,
As far as I'm aware, transferring IMEI numbers etc is Illegal. This reeks of something illegal.

Greetings,
Changing the IMEI is illegal in most countries and therefore discussing it on XDA is forbidden. I hope you understand.

Hello all,
Ok let me tell you what happened first.
In March I bought said phone on ebay from a guy which seemed a legit person, 150 or so reviews, a lot of stuff sold, positive reviews etc.
For the past 6 month everything worked fine and i used the phone in the UK on EE (phone is locked to EE) without problems.
on Saturday the phone suddenly has been not geting any signal so I did some invetigations and it turns out the guy who sold the phone is on contract with EE with the phone and did an insurance claim as lost or stolen.
So now the phone has been Blacklisted and i cant use it anymore, to make calls etc on any network.
I tried to get Info from |EE, Ebay etc but with no luck.
I did some research and found that i can change the IMEI number to make the phone work again.
So I must say first up that I dont have a clue from rooting or any modyfing stuff with phones apart from the normal ANdroid things.
So I did some research and after misserably failing to root the phone myself, I got a company "one click root" to succesfully got my phone rooted.
Now I tried the options to change the IMEI number but none of them works:
"ok i cant post outside links:
the 2 versions to change IMEI which i found and tried are : with xposed and imeichanger app, and also one where you have to dial a number which opens radio frequenzy and then another number where you can change IMEI number
this does not work because the xposed framework is not compatible with this phone (yet)
this does not work as i dont have signal and the "call" does not go through.
thats the only thing I found and i thought as a last resort I try my luck here if anyone knows of a different way tho change the IMEI number for this phone apart from the 2 options above before i go and spend another 350£ for a new phone (this time from a shop )
thanks in advance

I take it this means you didn't create that all important backup before modding your device? :silly:
Try downgrading the firmware first then flash the latest updated firmware

Hi guys,
I have an issue with My SM-A520F. I bought it to a particular and according to the initial network provider, this person stop to pay his subscription.
So, I'm looking for solution to change IMEI for this model. I think the nv_data.bin is encrypted. Perhaps if I change the nv_data.bin(whith the corresponding nv_data.bin.md5) with another which not blocked in my country it will work. So, if someone want to exchange his nv_data.

Hi Xposed and IMEI changer will not help you. If you want I can explain you how to install it on this phone. But the IMEI changed by IMEI changer with xposed framwork is not the IMEI sent to the network provider. The IMEI changed by this app is used to mask your IMEI to the apps that track you by using the IMEI. So it's just a spoof of the IMEI for apps using IMEI and not a really IMEI change.

Backup the EFS with TWRP then delete the EFS folder. The EFS should rebuild and give a default IMEI when the devices reboots or try deleting NV_DATA.bin, NV_DATA.bin.md5, it should get replaced by NV_DATA.BAK.bin if it's any good.
You can also attempt to Format and remount the EFS partition. It works for some devices.

Guess not in that situation, but you may be able to delete the EFS and enable the default Imei.

Hello guys. I am not quite new here, but I never registered (or I did but I couldn't find with which email or username).
However, I am having some trouble with Samsung S7 phone.
First of all, the IMEI on the About page is not the same as the IMEI on the back of the phone.
When I enter the IMEI from the back of the phone in IMEI checker, I get the right phone (Samsung S7).
When I enter the IMEI from the About page in IMEI checker, I get some old BLU phone.
Second problem is that I think this phone is not duos, however, whichever firmware I try to flash, I see the SIM card manager in the Settings. Which is weird to me.
Third problem is that the phone won't connect to network. I've tried 3 SIM cards (all 3 of those works on other phones), but this one just won't connect.
It shows full strength of signal, it also shows the phone number of the SIM, however, when I try to make a call, it says "Not registered on network".
The phone should not be locked as my brother said that he used it for some time, then he updated it to the latest OS and then did a factory reset. After that, the phone just stopped working.
Does anyone know what could be the issue? Why the IMEIs are different?
I am quite sure that the phone model is SM-G930F, however, the model number in Settings shows SM-G930FD. Which is again weird to me.
I've looked on the Google to see a picture of the SIM card slot of Samsung S7 duos and mine SIM card slot does not like that. Also, on one slot, it says only "microSD" and on another "SIM". So, I guess it is not a duos phone.
Any advices?
Thank you in advance!
All the best,
Dale
It sounds like somebody has changed the IMEI of the phone and patched the certificate for the IMEI to work.
Once you reset the phone or update the firmware on it, it will remove the patched certificate allowing the changed IMEI.
You will need to look for someone that does IMEI repair / change to get it working for you again I know there is a guy on the forums here that does them for free. Look through the s7 edge sub forums for them.

Well, I already flashed the firmware multiple times with different basebands and versions of the firmware as I thought that the firmware is wrong. Also tried to flash the firmware with Phone EFS Clear option checked in Odin.
Everything else on the phone works.
Sorry that this isnt help but you not alone, I unbricked a Samsung S7 (SM-G930F) after it suddenly just bricked (hard brick/soft brick - same thing). Eventually when I installed nougat on it, and finally wanted to use the phone, i tried a simcard and noticed how it would load all saved contacts but whatever I dailed, it responded "Not registered to network". Checking the model number it is now SM-G930FD but i am unable to verify the imei becuase of missing box. I tried many firmwares (even those that specify its for SM-G930F) but the model number remains SM-G930FD.
could any help plz be posted...
