Hello guys i've installed merruk kernel 2.0 pre-final and my imei is blank. It don't recognize my sim card. I've made a full backup in CWM but it not worked. I want to revert ext4.zip process and install my stock kernel that i have a backup, is't possible? Will it restore my IMEI?
most likely the ril is not compatible with your baseband
I keep saying you cant use an old kernel with a new firmware baseband or you will loose imei
you can solve this by replacing the ril lib with an old baseband version
see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52449987&postcount=232
try the hyp 8 ril - you can try others if you wish
if you want to return to stock you will have to flash stock rom via odin to convert your system from ext back to rfs
see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568853
you can then restore your stock nandroid backup as long as you restore it using the kernel and cwm from which it was made on

My current ROM is the stock rom of S5360B, how do i do it without brick my phone in this case? what other methods should i try to restore my IMEI if this method not work?
Current ROM info:
Model: GT-S5360B
Version: Android 2.3.6
Product Code: ZTO
PDA: S5360BUTME2
CSC: S5360BZTOMJ1
MODEM: S5360BUTNA1
The GT-S5360B is exactly the same phone as a normal GT-S5360. It will work without much problems (if any), and it most probably won't brick your phone. Flash the zip for your baseband as per nornal (remember to mount /system)
Any other methods? I'm not too sure, apart from using Galaxy Toolbox to check your efs partition is damaged and backing up your efs partition.

no difference - you can flash 5360 on a 5360b if you want to
the only difference is the B version is branded varient of the 5360
you can use any file you like from the 5360 without any problems plus if you really want the 5360b firmware to flash stock rom via odin at a later date its also on my firmware thread
Ok, I'll try to install the stock rom via odin, hope it works . I have a doubt, I ran the ext4 converter. have i to follow this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2007720 or can i install without re-partition?
If it not working, what ril fix file can i use for my phone?
I'll update the result here.

Never tick repartition in odin
all you have to do is flash pda modem and csc - DO NOT tick anything extra
your phone will convert back to rfs from ext if you flash stock rom via odiin
I posted a load of rils from different basebands in post #2 of this thread - you can use what ever one you want - ril is dependant on rom firmware and kernel being used

then click unknown device
update driver
select folder
select the install location of the samsung divers (normally C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG)
if its not there then you havent installed the drivers
note - you do not need drivers for mass storage mode - you only need them for adb (download mode)
It worked! I've installed the stock rom and my IMEI is showing and the sim card is ok. Thank you all. But i have one more question:
I don't intend to continue with stock rom and stock kernel. What should i do to prevent this error occur by installing any custom rom or custom kernel? I've heard that i have to backup the efs, but the efs folder is always blank on galaxy y.

the efs partition is empty on galaxy y because that partition is not mounted
you can backup your efs partition with galaxy toolbox but that wont help you with the problem you had
I keep saying its to do with the ril - you cant use an old kernel with a new firmware and vise versa
to solve this if you use an old kernel with a new firmware replace the ril lib of the new firmware with one from an old firmware

Hi there,
I'm just wondering why my phone is losing its imei (or rather, its changing to the generic 0049xxx) after flashing the latest MG5 firmwares (I tried three different versions now). I first came from MG1, then flashed the MG9 when it came out. Now, when I flash any other firmware, my imei gets f'ed up.
I havent rooted my phone yet, I'm just flashing firmwares I downloaded from sammobile. Is it just because of this MG5 firmwares not being compatible? Will I still be able to flash newer firmwares when it goes out?
Thanks in advance, cheers!

I have downloaded the August version for the united arab emirates , it seems to see my imei , but whenever i lock the phone (or screen idle closes the display) 90% of times phone freezes and I need to restart it.
it seems that in the latest roms samsung(for S3,S4) change the efs structure ... thats why imei gets mess if you try to change rom after.but if you change the modem with old one it may works....
Gotcha thanks!
i have the similar problem .
updated from G1 to G5 via samobile,
same problem ... no network registration

who flashed the MG9 firmware had their EFS partition modified.
So in case if you have to go back to earlier firmware you will have problems with IMEI. You have to:
- Restore EFS (that is backed up before this change) or
- Flash MG9 modem which can still read the modified EFS.

Flashing or restoring efs backup doesnt work after flashing mg9.
You need to return to your firmware when you first get your phone out of the box with clean install and wiping everything in cwm before getting into download mode.
Then after flashing the firmware, root then restore efs backup.

so what is new
once you flashed the MG9, the efs partition format has been changed, so if you downgrade (regardless if to the original stock) you must restore the efs partition from the backup you made or just flash MG9 modem.

Guys, If I flash with MG5 firmware and then flash with modem of MG9? Will it work ?
Hi Guys... semi noob here.
I have a gt-i9300 that I have been messing around with, and I seem to have lost the IMEI number, im getting004999010640000 / 06 when I dial *#06#. I have the actual IMEI behind the battery, but no idea how to put it back in
I am currently stock with root (cf auto)
Things ive tried:
EFS Pro - Just kept putting it in factory mode
NV-Items Read/Write v1.0 - Failed... phone does not answer
something I found on google using adb shell - did nothing at all
flashed many stock rom's / Modem's / RIL
TWRM Recovery wiped EVERYTHING to the point where twrm warned me about rebooting due to no OS installed
I am currently reverted to stock:
Build: JZO54K.I82XXELLA
Baseband: I9300NELK2
Kernel: 3.0.31-742798
Android: 4.1.2
Root: CF-Autoroot flashed with Odin 3.07
Branded and Simlocked with H3G (Three United Kingdom)
This is a UK model.
I really need some help here as I would like to get this up and running for carrier unlock (code requested from Three) so I can use my O2 sim in it)
PLEASE can anyone tell me how to get my IMEI back without a "box" (I don't have £130+ to spend!!!!)
Thanks in advance

If my memory serves me right you have to flash a stock firmware and you shoukd get your ime back

Did you flashed any 4.3 or 4.1.2 with new EFS partition format.. if so find that rom and install modem corresponding to that rom.
Also - do you have previously EFS backup?

I'm not sure but i think that you need to go back on 4.3 - i hope that you are made update to v2 of EFS during that previous flashing.

I believe I did go to EFS v2 at that point. Will flashing the 4.3 rom put my IMEI right again?
flashing 4.3 or a modem from emg4 onwards 4.3 changed the efs partition to efs v2 firwares with modems prior to emg4 cannot read this hence duff imei when you flash back an older stock rom.
Just back to 4.3 and all will be fine. If u didnt make backup of EFS v1 you cant back to 4.1.2

well, just flashed back to 4.3 stock (no root, full details below) and still false IMEI. I am assuming that until I get my IMEI back, the I9300 won't connect to the network at all?
Device details:
Android: 4.3

Baseband: I9300XXUGMJ9
Kernel: 3.0.31-1902166
IMEI: 004999010640000
IMEI SV: 01
Flashed to 4.3 stock, then boot into recovery, factory reset and wiped cache
any other ideas?

This violates xda's rules. Even if there is a way, I'm not going to tell you how to do so. It's illegal.

Which Note 3 model do you have?
Thanks for the replay.
I have n9005 32gb and i fix the problem.
What I have find out that if u flash higher version of baseband u need to flash the same version that u had and not the base line.
At first I had the following rom:
9005XXUEND3_N9005OLBENC3_N9005XXUENC2_HOME
After a few weeks I flashed the following rom:
N9005DXUENE4_N9005OLCENE5_N9005DXUENE3_HOME
Yestarday I have tried to flash the following rom:
N9005ZHUENE6_N9005ZZHENE6_N9005ZHUENE6_HOME - it stuck in the end with ext4 image faliure.
I have tried to flash the first rom (the base line) 9005XXUEND3_N9005OLBENC3_N9005XXUENC2_HOME and the baseband was unknown, and when i flashed N9005DXUENE4_N9005OLCENE5_N9005DXUENE3_HOME, it fix the problem.

Never flash pit or bootloader files unless you specifically have a bootloader problem - its not needed just to flash stock rom via odin
I don't understand what you mean by make it right - does your phone boot? Do you want to change your baseband to a different region?

Well when it happened, I had installed Xdous v2 ROM.
It was working fine, then I went ahead with all kinds of tweaks to make an ext2 partition, that went well also. I was able to Link all my files, then suddenly it got hanged, and I was left with out with only download mode, nothing else to work on.
Couldn't make out what really caused it, but I suspected(not blaming) crons mod behind this, that came in the Xduos tweaks and scripts and that was what I had flashed last.
I have cwm nandroid back of my stock rom, as well as S6102DDMF4_S6102ODDMF4_INS.zip which I tried flashing with Odin.
But it didn't load up.
As the last resort I had to make the decision of flashing these files from here

My SGY Boots and it boots well below 60 secs, Ram usage is less and I can multi task as well. Its performing much better than the S6102ODDMF4 version. Although there are times that when swiping stops work along with wifi and mobile data, either I have to restart it or have to flash its kernel to make it right. I have been using these with the custom rom Xdous and custom kernel compactV1.3 provided by kenjiboy and nitu bhaskar.

The stock rom firmware you flashed if it wasn't from my thread was probably not a wipe pack so you have to manually data wipe after flashing it
All my firmwares are wipe packs so it should wipe system & data when you flash it
If it bootloops just wipe data in recovery
As for firmware versions it doesn't matter if they are not the same - modem is baseband version and pda is rom build version
You can flash any firmware you like from my firmware thread although it's best to flash one from your geographical region
thanks it's working
