Lumia 950 problem with IMEI - Microsoft Lumia 950/950 XL

Hi, need some help with Lumia 950. Sorry for my English, it's not my native language.
Bought device from Korea shop, originally it's Dual Sim, but model on sticker is RM-1104. In fact device model is RM-1118. WDRT shows it as Lumia 950 Dual Sim.
From the beginning had some issues with device heating in my hands like hell.
Suddenly i updated it via WDRT and after update my IMEI just disappeared. Device is always in airplane mode and instead of IMEI there's MEID with some unknown simbols in settings.
Tried to hard reset and update - no changes at all. And now WDRT shows device as Lumia 950.
Don't even know what to do and hope some of you can help.

Same!

I have the same problem! Your post is the first and only one I've come across with an identical issue. I'm a Windows Insider, so I had an insider preview build on my L950XL that didn't work well. I took to WDRT to try and solve the issue, but it only works partially for me. The IMEI is there on first boot after hard reset, but immediately when I manually reboot my device, the IMEI disappears and gets replaced with a MEID with weird characters. Whenever this happens, my phone does boot to Start, but after about 1 minute, the phone automatically reboots, returns to Start, reboots again... in an endless loop.
It should be noted that during the OOBE (out-of-box-experience, i.e. initial setup), there will also be a problem if I change language or region (which prompt a restart), and then the phone is stuck in a reboot loop to OOBE. I don't know what happens in your case, but at least in mine, the phone is completely useless, because it keeps rebooting by itself.

Lumia 520 IMEI repair

Hello friends,
I have a Lumia 520 with Windows Phone 8.1 and, after loan the phone for my friend, he returned the phone with no IMEI. He said that simple made a factory reset and the phone still in "airplane mode". Verifying on configurations, I see that the phone has not IMEI number anymore.
How do can I restore the IMEI number of my phone?
I just tried the Windows Device Recovery Tool, but the IMEI number still blank.

No service, No IMEI and No clue

Hi,
My friend has bought a SGS7 because his SGS4 faced a problem, so he gave to me to fix it
The problem is as follows:
The phone sees the sim after maybe 5-10 minutes AFTER booting up and then 5-10 min after that it vibrates twice and than reboots its self. When the phone boots up and i try to view the imei by *#06# there is no response however a while after that when the sim is recognised the imei box pops up. Even without the sim the exact same things happen
#*The top part of the screen is gone slightly pink I think thats because its due to overheating as the phone is hot when for example is charging and not being used or when the phone is used to play spotify with the screen turned off dont know if this will help anyone the casue of the modem disfunctioning but the screen is pinkish where the processor and the sim is so...*#
Now i have tryed some troubleshooting withut success i have done as follows:
I've changed the sim tray which didnt help at all
I put tape on the sim/sdcard conncetor to add more pesssure (worked for other) without success
Tried to downgrade to 4.4.2 to change modem as there is no mode for the lolipop version of the stock rom
And lastly i have applyed the 4.4.2 modem to 5.0.1 that did nothing to the system
Please help me i have searched trough google and found out that this only happens when downgrading for lolipop to kitkat but he has never done anything to the phone no root not even a screen repair (where im based there are may scamers who replase the screen and than say the for the screen to work that had to modify the system thanks to that they charge more for the repair)
Please help, anyhelp is useful
cheers
Anyone?

I'm having the same issue.
Fresh wipe and install corrects the error but once the battery goes flat I lose all connection except WiFi.
Non of the *# codes seem to work either.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Moto G4 - Stuck in Bootloader

EDIT: I know a way of getting out of the bootloader but it requires me to unlock it (even though I left it unlocked after initially doing it). Unfortunately, though, I think I'm left with a £150 paperweight since I need an OS on the device to enable OEM unlocking and the device literally has no OS or recovery after the hard brick. Motorola have been very "supportive" about my situation even after sending them a 10 paragraph email explaining everything which obviously, they didn't read because I wrote on the first line that the device has been rooted so they knew beforehand. I wrote 10 paragraphs, they replied with six lines, so... Yeah.
I installed LineageOS 14 on my Moto G4 months ago with TWRP and I've never had any issues until today. Literally, just updated to a new nightly build for LineageOS and my phone screen went black and didn't turn back on. I plugged it into my computer and it showed up as QHSUSB_BULK. Obviously, at this point, my device was hard bricked but I found a way online of using Qualcomm's recovery thing they have to get my phone working again, which I did. But now, I've sorta ended up soft bricking the device now.
The device boots up into the bootloader (or what I think is the bootloader). What comes up is just white text at the bottom which basically just tells me information about my phone (product/variant, serial number, CPU, eMMC, DRAM etc.) The menu for the bootloader is just one string of text that only reads 'Start' and when I press the volume buttons, it will show up with more options but they're all highlighted in red and they all lead to the same error message, as follows:
Bootloader logs
Start Up Failed:
Your device didn't start up successfully.
Use the Software Repair Assistant on computer
to repair your device.
Connect your device to your computer to get
the Software Repair Assistant.​
I've looked around Google for the Software Repair Assistant and it appears to only be for Verizon Wireless and since I'm in the United Kingdom, Verizon Wireless doesn't even exist over here, nor do I even have them as my phone carrier. I'm with O2.
Also, I've tried a few things with Minimal ADB and Fastboot but every time I enter a command, it fails and say's 'FAILED (remote failure). My phone is detected in Fastboot, but not in ADB.
Hopefully, I can get this fixed.
Thanks,
Gabriel.
Guys, i am having the same issue too. I am getting the same issue. Since verizon is not available in india, unable to repair the phone since soft bricked. Kindly help.
did you try to enter fastboot>recovery and get the robot? if you can get that try holding the the power key and tap the up volume. that should give you a drop list with a factory reset option. click it and see what happens?
same problem here.
my phone is rescued.

Can't do this right now

Hi all,
When i attempt to switch the wifi ON in my Lumia 950 i got this error pop up "Can't do this right now. Try again in little while. If the problem continues, restart your phone and try again."
Has any one knows how to solve this issue?
I have searched in internet but most of them suggest to do hard reset which i did. But the problem still persist.
I did even reflash with WDRT but the problem persist. Do hard reset after flashing also did not solve the problem either.
Background history, i was unlocking bootloader of this phone using windowsphone internal 2.8 and fail. My Lumia 950 then got stuck at flashing mode. After play around with it between WPI and WDRT the battery got drain and the phone unable to recognize correct battery voltage anymore cause my Lumia 950 stuck at reboot loop with Microsoft logo.
Eventually i managed to recover my Lumia 950 using Thor2 commands. The phone is now function normal but still carry the same problem which is wifi can not be turned ON.
Apreciate if anyone here have any suggestion to solution.
Thanks

I am no expert and it's been a loooooooonggg time since I've done anything to my Lumia except use it like a phone, but I think the driver for WIFI is blown. May be you can get one of the devs to send you the drivers for WiFi. Or even better, if you can revert the device to its original state.
I have a plan B for you: Flash Windows 10 ROM with Working WiFi on it.

Tip:
Another suggestion would be to try using Lumia Software Recovery Tool, please have a look at the following page for more information:

Hope this helps.
Hi Whiteqode,
Thank you for replying.
I under impression that once we load the fresh ROM, the mobile phone should be at original state therefore all drivers should have been loaded. Am I mistaken?
If the driver has not being refresh after flashing, how can i load the driver manually? First of all how can i obtain the driver?
Has any one in here knows how to get one?

you are right. the drivers need to be either baked into the OS or need to be flashed BEFORE the ROM is flashed. My sincere apologies as I dont think I am capable of helping you. You can try the link though, the Software Recovery Tool. May be it will flash back the required drivers and you can wait till you have the drivers you need.

Help Restoring network operation of S8 active.

Okay so i tried the SamFail Rom / Root. 5 seconds into the root i got an error, a PIT fail code. The phone which is a carrier unlocked one went into an infinite boot loop on the recovery screen, and wouldn't let me enter the recovery options. I tried many hard resets, took out the battery, and even let it drain but nothing helped, it would just boot loops into the downloading update / Error . After all this i decided to try to flash the original firmware into it. Only thing is i didn't write down the software version. But since i have t mobile i thought why not just flash it with the latest tmobile software. So i did.
Now the phone turns on and everything works but it wont connect to the network. IMS registration status is not registered, Mobile network state is Disconnected but it does say T-Mobile which is my carrier.
Under the Odin download mode, before i even flashed it at the top left under carrier IT said SPR so i figured the phone was originally a sprint phone then unlocked and sold by the company. so i also tried the SPRINT software but same thing happens.
Under Co figuring Service it just stays registering then says " Please contact your service provider....." internal error -1.
Under UICC Unlock it says Your device is unlocked for any SIM card but then when i click it, it says SIM unlocking could not be completed please try again later. Internal Error 407.
Any help or insight would be appreciated. i don't care about the root anymore i just want the phone to work normally, Thanks.
---------------------------------------------------------
:Edit - I messed with it enough now it shows LTE service and everything but the. SPRINT OMADM Message wont go away. And the Carrier Hub - Requests are processing wont go away. also i get very minimum service if any at all. . Any help? Thanks.
Click on settings app->apps->click 3 dots button at upper right corner->click show systemapps-> search Sprint OMADM app and force stop it
