So, I installed CM10 on my Galaxy S3 on Bell, and I was having trouble connecting to the network, so I did a full restore back to the stock rom, and still I wasn't able to connect to my network (Bell). So I checked the Status, and it's saying: Network- Unkown. and IMEI - 0 (IMEI- 01)
So, how can I get my IMEI number back and connect to my network.

imei says 0 on s3 i747m
I have an s3 i747m and i flashed CM 10 then restored to stock rom. After that i found th imei is 0, Mobile Network State: Disconnected and its Roaming. I have tried everything. I've tried NV-Generator to create a .txt file for my imei and use NV-reader-writer to inject it in my phone but it always says, "Failed.. Phone does not answer". I even tried the QPST RF NV Manager to put my imei back and it says phones not connected. I have searched everywhere on this forum and tried everything and nothing is working. And yes I do have samsung drivers installed that's how I rooted my phone in the first place. As of now my phone is like an ipod running android I can't use any phone featuers.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!! total noob here :crying:

Hello. I just bought a note 2 that was locked to videotron. (sgh-t889v) I managed to unlock it, and got it working on fido. But as i suspected, all i get is hspa+. I would like some help on how to get LTE to work. I'm assuming I need to flash a rogers modem since rogers and fido share the same lte network. I just can't for the life of me, find any info anywhere. Can anyone help?
STOP.
There are some things that are still being worked out here.
It is possible you won't be able to go back to the T889V modem after flashing any other modem, and IMEI corruption is a likely occurance.
In the meantime, could you make a proper NV items and IMEI backup following these two threads?
[TOOL/GUIDE] Full NV Backup and Restore [SIMPLE] [08-03-2012]
[WARNING! + GUIDE] Backup and Restore IMEI / NV Data Procedure for GT-I9305
From the text file backup made with the NV_reader_writer tool, could you remove item 550 (that's your IMEI, which I have no business in knowing), and forward the remainder to me or post it here? Thanks in advance.
I've managed to get LTE working on my T889V with the I317M modem, but it wasn't without some trouble and I get bootloops if I try to revert to the T889V modem.
Another poster here is stuck on the T889 modem, and until I sent him a T-Mobile T889 NV backup his phone was only capable of 2G GSM, rendering it unusable with his Wind Mobile SIM card.

Wait did that person fix the problem with only getting 2g using the NV backup? I'm stuck on 2g also. If this helped please send me the NV backup as well.
I'm stuck using the t889 modem. As all other modems give me a unknown baseband and unknown imei. Along with a bootloop.

here is the full NV backup you requested. sorry about the delay! hope I did everything right lol, first time doing that.
Looks all good to me. Now to do some more research and testing...
I put my IMEI back in the file, wrote it all, rebooted. No problems, HSPA and LTE still functional.
Rebooted to download mode and reflashed the T889V modem *still* bootloops, weird.
I'll make a nandroid and try with clean user data.
Merci beaucoup!

How did you flash a I317 radio on a t889 in the first place anyway? I don't quote understand, but did you delete your imei to make it work?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I modified another Note 2 modem recovery zip (I think it was for the T889, or maybe the T889V) to put in the I317M modem instead.
Flashing that corrupted my IMEI.
Hello dspkeff, it's nice to see your post here, and let me breakdown what I have done to make the T889V work on the Fido 4G network by flashing the i317M modem and I'd like to ask you about the how to connect the phone to read/write the NV items.
First of all, my phone now is bricked because the IMEI number is gone (shows 0), but yes, I did get it working, not with the stock ROM, with the Jedi X 7.2 instead.
The time when I noticed my mobile data was gone was after flashing another custom kernel. I don't know if it has anything to do with the kernel or just because of flashing the modem. I did get 4G access and I tested the speed and the H+ icon was changed to 4G instead. And then I decided to try out the custom kernel, and then the data was gone after reboot.
So a lot of videos suggested that flashing the stock ROM will fix everything, but not in our cases here, because the T889V will stuck in bootloop when flashing the stock ROM... and that not only me, there are some other people on the forum who are experiencing the exact same problem.
Now we are stuck here, I've been thinking a lot, the only way I can get the IMEI back is to do the IMEI injection by using the NV reader/writer program such as QPST, or NV-items reader/writer, but I couldn't get them to even connect to my phone. That is actually the reason I'm PMing you because I saw that you provided the NV backup of the T889V! If you can read the phone, I think there is a way to write to it, and then I can preform an IMEI injection, maybe it can unbrick my phone!
Could you kindly tell me how you backup the NV-items please please? I really don't wanna lose 700 bugs lol, thanks soooo much!

Which part of the modem did you modify? Would you mind posting your modified modem?
I noticed that my T889 isn't accepting Rogers and AT&T modems -- Whenever I flash them, my baseband in settings would say "Unknown".
I modified the updater zip, the modem file is straight from the stock Odin file.

I cannot get them to connect to my phone either and have the same issue. I can boot by using CWM to mount and then fixing permissions but no baseband, SIM card recognition or IMEI.
it was bootlooping for me and IMEI corruption from flashing a t889 ROM on a t889v (which worked before a number of times). I made sure the flashcounter said zero and warrantied it with Samsung. Even Samsung couldn't fix it and gave me a brand new one.
Can only get it to 1 not zero.
could you provide the i317m modem you have used

Hello,
Unfortunately, I'm having the same problem and have been unsuccessful at finding the right forum . After unrooting my Galaxy SGH-T999, I lost service "no service." I also have the circle with the line crossing it, only WiFi is working; Baseband version, Network, Mobile network type, as well as the IMEI appear as unkown. Please help me or re direct me with the link, I have tried everything and nothing.
It's actually not in our section. But with a simple Google search:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997
Looks like I'll be adding this to the FAQ.
More help please
Thanks for the quick response; however, what is it that I need to do to get back service. Make a backup, restore, or inject imei? Also, i'm having trouble understanding the thread. Is it to much to ask for to give me a little guidance of what exactly is it that I have to do. I'll appreciated it a lot.

I'd ask about what you don't understand in the thread about restoring IMEI.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Well, to be honest I don't know where to even start.
1. I downloaded QPST program
2. AT&T and TMO Phones (or any variant thereof)... I don't know if this applies to my process.
Option1:Using the stock dialer dial *#7284#.... When I do that my phone says: Mobile network not available.
Option 2: Stock ROM w/ unsecured kernal flash this file by drothenberger and geek HERE!... lost there
Install QuickShortcutMaker... don't know where from
Open it and type IOT in the search box... don't know what that is.
Click on the entry that says IOTHiddenMenu / IOTHiddenMenu / com.android.hiddenmenu/com.android.hiddenmenu.IOTHiddenMenu
Click OK..... ???
3. The Following Steps Applies to all phones!
Put phone into RMNET + DM + MODEM mode... what do those abbreviation mean?
IMEI Injection:
If you have lost your IMEI and did not have a backup made this is how PureMotive and I were able to get his IMEI restored.
Open RF NV Item Manager from the bin folder found in Program Files folder/Qualcomm/QPST (RF NV Manager is no longer accessible from the
(open RF and NV?)
start menu or from inside QPST Configuration).
Click on Setting menu in RF NV Item Manager and select Comport.
Select your phone from the list of ports and click ok.
Go to File menu and select Read From Phone.
You will get a list of NV items and their values from your phone.
Look for item NV_UE_IMEI_I it will be item number 550 you can do a search for it using the search.
I'm so upset, disappointed, and mad at myself. I just bought this phone and I already broke it. I been trying to fix it all day and no luck. Please if anyone could make this pain for me. I don't understand the abbreviations or where it is that I need to start.
Thank you

If you're competent enough to root and flash a ROM, you're competent enough to follow Peoplearmy's guide to restoring your 4G. If not, then you you need to go back use Triangle Away to get rid of the flash counter and then Odin back to a factory TouchWiz ROM to erase your evidence of tampering with the phone.
Follow the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997. Just remember since people have been making this mistake, you're not done when you inject your IMEI.

-Backup
-Restore
Ok well don, I followed the entire guide, everything on post #3, and am still only getting 2g. When I do *#06# it shows me exactly the same imei # as on the back of my phone, and I repeated EVERYTHING in the post at least 3 times, and still only get 2g. I literally have no idea, I don't think the radio is bad haha, it happened with a flash.

Hi guys, i seriously need help here. Please refer to attached screenshot.
I came here after flashing sokp 4.2.2 rom, and it prompted me an error saying encryption was unsuccessful. After which, i wasnt able to use my phone since then.
I tried to flash stock rom, and I end up with this. Please dont tell me to search the forums because Ive been to them countless times. I suppose this is a efs issue, because baseband and imei are unknown and I do not have a backup for it. Tried with the writing tool for imei, doesnt work as well.
Pls ask me for any info u might need/i missed out to help with this issue.
I think it's in the efs folder, you have to use a root browser and edit factory mode to off instead of on. It's been a long time since I saw factory mode so I'm not 100%

Thanks for your reply. But even if I off factory mode, will the baseband and imei be unknown?
I'm not sure but if it doesn't the 2 things that might be worth trying are, emergency firmware recovery with kies or mskips toolkit has a rescue package but I think you have to go to skipsoft.net now as the thread was closed
Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk
It's current value is "OFF"...u have to write "ON"...i know it sounds weird but that is the value. Amd if u don't have any previous back up of EFS then there's nothing u can do at home to bring it back. Same thing happened to mine and i got it repaired from a local shop for cheap...they used z3x box...the problem is my IMEI is correct and network works fine...but everytime i flash a ROM i have to take it to the shop and get the modem patched or else it doesn't connect to network. So go to Samsung service centre and get it fixed by them...they'll charge u more but their fix is permanent.

Alright, it seems like i have a backup of the efs, bt the nv_data.bin file is not included, and i read on other threads that this file is responsible for the imei and all? This backup is dated in aug2013, but it doesnt help in restoring my phone because the efs pro software doesnt see this as a backup file. Im actually looking for one of the thread that actually taught how to edit the nv_data.bin file, but no luck till date.

Hello,
I have been unlocking for a while but have ran into issues lately with z3x and 4.3 on i747. Basically everyime i use 23x box something goes wrong last night it started with an extra number being inserted in the imei. Not knowing that ns pro will wreck your modem i tried it and now the imei is null and baseband is unknown. Any help would greatly be appreciated. There was alot i did not know about unlocking because i got into this with ns pro back when there was 0 problmes with anyhting below 4.3, but now 4.3 is killing me.
Here is what i have done
i have tried to rewrite imei mulitple times
i have tried qpst with a good know qcn fiel but it just error out. everytime
the problem
*#7284# shows up but wont allow me to switch between modem andpda
phone will not read in either z3x or ns pro
it would seem like tis not reading in qpst either as it wont allo me to restore any of the good know files
i just really want to be done with this and move on.
Another question i have is int he furute if i do a full nv backup with nv reader writer will this help at all. Like is said i am only having this problem ont he 747 and i have searched xda, ns pro, and z3x forums for an answer and i cant seem to find one. My next step is just to replace the baseband chip and be done, but that alot of work and i hate reballing any bga.
Thanks in Advance

There was alot i did not know about unlocking because i got into this with ns pro back when there was 0 problmes with anyhting below 4.3, but now 4.3 is killing me.
Here is what i have done
i have tried to rewrite imei mulitple times
i have tried qpst with a good know qcn fiel but it just error out. everytime
the problem
*#7284# shows up but wont allow me to switch between modem andpda
phone will not read in either z3x or ns pro
it would seem like tis not reading in qpst either as it wont allo me to restore any of the good know files
i just really want to be done with this and move on.
Another question i have is int he furute if i do a full nv backup with nv reader writer will this help at all. Like is said i am only having this problem ont he 747 and i have searched xda, ns pro, and z3x forums for an answer and i cant seem to find one. My next step is just to replace the baseband chip and be done, but that alot of work and i hate reballing any bga.
Thanks in Advance

NULL IMEI doesn't mean you've actually lost your IMEI
try take sim out, restart phone and then reinsert sim, and if that doesn't work, restart again with your sim inside
and also when you reinject imei(say whatever i said above doesn't work for you), make sure under developer option, usb debugging is on!

Looks like your modem is compromised. You can download the modem via the following link and try reflashing recovery.

Larry thank you so much for your help, and i am embarrased to say this but i dont know how to do that. Is it a file i put into the pda section of odin and put the phone in download mode.

No, it's a zip file which has to be flashed via (custom) recovery. If you do not have custom recovery, you can flash that to your phone via Odin. There are several options for custom recovery but most common options are CWM, TWRP and Philz Touch which is an enhancement of CWM.
First download the modem file to your computer. Copy it to your phone's internal SD card if you can or to an external (micro) SD card.
Once you have the zip ready, boot your phone into recovery mode via the 3-button combo (Volume Up, Home and Power).
When you are in recovery mode, select install and navigate to the modem zip. Start flashing. Wait for flashing to be complete and reboot to system. I'd have sent you some download links for custom recovery but I'm writing this in a fly. You could, however, do a search through this forum.

Larry thank you so much it actually worked in case someone lese has this problem im going to post waht i did
i downloaded the file
flashed the modem.bin file via twrp. I just put it on the phone i did not use the sd card
then i rewrote the imei with ns pro verision 6.7.1 (this phone was on 4.3)
i know have my imei back, and i know also i have the phone in 100 percent working condition with a full imei.
TAKE MY ADVICE AND BACK UP THE NV ITEMS before doing a s3 747 or 999 on z3 box just in case. I have spent close to 3 days trying to fix these phones.
Thank you Larry so very very much. If you have a link to paypal i will donate to you.
alos if you are going to install the file to your phone remeber to put it back into mtp+adb so you can move it your phone with out an sd card
ok so after completeting this you will only get edge network download the nv writer and nv items from the link below and then you will get 4g lte back

Glad to know your phone is working fine now. Maybe I should put up a donation link. Just kidding ... seriously though, if you are happy with the support you are getting from the forum and make a donation to XDA, you'd be helping to keep the forum going.
Thanks for the help to both you guys!!!
