Magic DEVICE Imei and Baseband restored but sim card DIE

You have to reflash a GB-Rom,i.e. JVU. Then everything will be ok. And after that flash a ICS-Rom which not makes disappear the IMEI and then, without wiping you may flash this special ICS-Rom which caused that issue. Now everything should be ok. That was the experience I have made.

Really need help with S4 i9500

Hi everyone,
My S4 has lost its IMEI, and here is my situation.
I was using Prism v14 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537515), and it was totally fine. Last night, I tried to flash a new S6 port rom, this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop/rom-aurora-s6-port-t3063408, and my fone lost its signal. The signal icon is still full, but it was only available at emergency calls. When i check, IMEI and Serial number were still there. I tried flashing the Prism v14 again, didnt fix it.
Then I took my fone to the care center and left it there for a few hours. When i come back, they told me that, they flashed it back to stock, and when i ceck, the IMEI was gone. They explained that, when I flashed the S6 port rom, the real IMEI was gone, it was only the fake IMEI from the rom that I saw (didnt know if this was true).
So now im asking for any possible help/solution. I was bad to forget backing up my EFS. So i wonder if I can use someone else's EFS to restore? If yes, it would be great if any one can share with me the EFS backup.
Thank you for reading and please excuse my bad English.

The EFS folder doesn't store the IMEI, despite having an IMEI folder, thus it won't help you. nv_data.bin also will not be found there, if my S4 is any indicator, but will be found in the hidden partitions.
You'll need to try flashing the baseband for your device again, and to do that you're going to have to download a copy of the ROM, which should be found on the forums here. Sometimes the baseband needs to be flashed twice for everything to properly work. I can only speculate why that is, but I believe it to be due to having two hidden partitions for the baseband. When the baseband is copied into the first partition it isn't copied into the second, resulting in a mismatch. Flashing the baseband a second time writes the baseband to the second partition, and everything functions correctly.
If flashing the modem again does not work, getting your IMEI back will require using methods that cannot be discussed here on XDA.

I never heard of someone losing their imei while switching custom roms. I don't think it's even possible.
What happens when you go back to gearCM?

(HELP) with NV DATA

Hey Guys I need some help with Nv data (EFS )
The NV data baseband is I9500UBUAMDE nonetheless my firmware baseband is I9500UBUGNJ1
I think this is why my phone do not have a stable conection with cel-towers...
So I need to know, how to update the nv data without corrupt it?
Kindly regards,
AG

Just flash a stock ROM using Odin. This will ensure that the bootloader and modem match.

Already did it some many times... Without results...

The phone is missing the imei and MAC address?

No one is missing...
Phone signal Goes out and in.
However while the phone has signal. I can call and navigate on internet..
Do you need the efs folder?

If the phone has an imei, then it seems like the efs folder may be fine and something else is happening.
So flashes are successful in Odin?
Could the phone be blacklisted? Was it ever dropped? Tried a different SIM card? Tried our SIM card in another phone?

Ok, I have to be honest... I was on 4.4.2
I try to use galaxysim unlock. However EFS was v2 and I restore a v1 efs folder in order to unlock the phone. It works. However after upgrade to 5.0. It start to fluctuate the signal...
Note: v1 and v2 are versions in matter of security of the EFS folder...
That is how this how begins...

Did you restore the original version 2 efs? Do you have a backup of the original efs? If not, I'm not sure if an nvwriter will help.

I think I do not have one...
What should I do?.....

I'm not sure what to suggest. Maybe Google nvwriter and see if it works with your phone.

Do you a have a efs.img backup ? Or any kind of IMEI/EFS/RADIO backup ?
I had the same problem I flashed the stock ROM and somehow I lost my IMEI info, I tried everything and I was even thinking about buying a z3x box but then I decided to do a very risky move , I completely deleted all the EFS related files/info and reflashed again but now I was not able to boot because I always sent me to recovery mode saying that :
"E:Failed To Mount /EFS (invalid argument )"
Then all I did was installing TWRP and rooted my SM-G935F and then I placed my efs.img backup on my internal SD CARD and went on recovery launched the terminal and wrote this :
dd if=/sdcard/efs.img of=/dev/block/platform/155a0000.ufs/by-name/EFS
Then I wrote reboot and it finally my phone was booting and I recovered my IMEI and was able to use my phone normally.
This only works if you have a backup of your EFS, and even if you do is risky , but I did it because I lost all hope and was accepting the fact that my phone would just become a useless wifi only device .

So there is not a fix yet for this problem ?

I have a problem on my s7edge instead. If i have valid imei i'am almost always in emergency calls, and when the signal comes back does not go into mobile data connection. With the wi fi no problem.Can someone help me i'am going crazy.!
