[Q] Help absolutely needed ! HTC One X - HTC One X

Hello people.
I have a serious issue here.
I flashed some custom Roms and went back to stock Rom several times, i have CWM Recovery installed, Terminal emulator etc. and today when i typed in *#06# my IMEI resembles nothing like the original one.
I restored my nandroid backup - no luck, i restored using RUU - no luck, tried everything - no luck getting it back.
I read stuff at several places, and everywhere is stated "you should back up your 'efs' folder", where is that folder located ? I searched and searched and HAVE searched (when my IMEI was normal) but a folder named 'efs' or something like that does not exist on my phone (just don't know where it is..)
I want to have my IMEI back, but as i said - nothing works.. flashing boot images via cmd, custom roms, stock roms, wiping data, ruu's, NOTHING !
I have my IMEI because i kept the box that i got the phone with and i don't know why, but at some point it seems that i have written it down on a piece of paper so yeah, i have my original IMEI.
My question is, where to look (root folders etc.), what programs do i have to use, what files do i have to get, which files do i have to edid and via what program, so that i can get my IMEI on that damn phone ?
P.S. i went to the place where i got it - they offer no exchange (even if i wasn't rooted) and they offer no help whatsoever.
Thank you for reading.

I think writing IMEI is impossible without S-OFF... I wonder how the hell could it even change from the original.
How about you do fastboot getvar all and see if the IMEI is still weird.

do u have signal? do u flash custom kernel? just reflash the module of custom kernel and it will come again

I have seen posts about missing imei ..... it is unlikely to return after a flash. Some say its possible writing the imei with a jtag solution !
The last post i read about missing imei was that he returned the phone to a repair shop

Dude ..... I hate it to be this way......but......this is the second thread already tonight where you don't read the thread and certainly not the OP ! Please pay attention......he already stated very clear that he used different boot.img files and even a ruu !

I do approve of this... Please read the thread next time, dude.

This is such a pain..
Oh and btw, when i said "all messed up' i meant, that when i type *#06# - nothing appears.
I tried a last resort thing, using a hex editor and some crazy terminal emulator stuff, but there are so many rows and rows of numbers and strange letters that i do not understand and i gave up all hope.

So to get something in the clear ? You have NO imei at all or did it change ? You tell different story's
And you can't use the phone ? No signal ..... or is it working fine ?

Sim-card not found after flashing PhilZ Touch custom recovery

Hello everyone,
i've flashed the newest version of the PhilZ Touch custom recovery and now my note 2 can't find my sim-card...
Custom recovery found @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103
I flashed it from version 4.35 to 4.63 so the custom recovery was installed and working before.
After reboot i didn't had the possibility to unlock my sim-card (entering PIN-code).
Now i have no network connection at al (obviously)
Everything else is (so far) working...
I'm using the rooted stock rom
greetings,
p.s. i would reply in the specific topic but i can't yet.
Try another recovery or phone.

Is it, in any way, possible that a sim-card gets affected when you flash a custom rom?
I'm thinking about this question because my sim-card broke just after flashing without touching it...
(no need to touch your sim-card to flash, but i haven't done anything else where i would have needed to remove/change it)
Its probably just coincidence but it's strange that it just happend after flashing.
(sorry if my english is hard to understand )
greetings from Belgium
ye same problem here, tell me when u found out to get it back so I can use that method =p
I've had no problems after upgrading the recovery.
I would suggest you post in PhilZ's thread. He is very active and will help find out what happened.

Well, i've changed the sim-card (have one for data only...) and that one worked fine...
I tried it in another phone too but i was thinking that it wasn't working because i used an adapter to have a normal sim-card and not the micro-sim format so i did the thing mentioned above...
I decided to sent my parents to a Belgacom support center (one of belgians telecom operators) to ask a new one.
I need to work this weekend and i didn't had the opportunity to go myself, it's stupid to walk with a phone without the ability to call/send messages :silly:...
I just inserted the sim-card my parents got from the center and i've recieved al my missed messages so i know that the new one is working fine.
This is undoubtedly strange that it's possible that a sim-card gets affected/broken when changing/updating custom recovery.
I'm "glad" (if you understand what i mean) that i'm not the only one who is having this problem.
Can someone with experience explain to me and the others what could have been the problem?
Edit: can't post yet in his thread due to too low count of messages
Edit2: i'm sorry that i haven't any easy sollution...
Yours sincerely,
what do you actually get from philz? i can't even feel a butterfly flies in my tummy..
in my opinion, the perseus one is the best choise.

Nothing special?
I don't know why you are asuming that i need to get something from it...
I'm just saying in this thread that there has been a problem with the sim-card after flashing this custom recovery .
So i only wanted to say "Hey, after performing this, that went wrong, how to find a solution"
This has nothing to do with liking a custom recovery.
I'm happy for you that you like the perseus one but this one was aproved by someone to solve another problem (and worked)...
I can't understand the point of your reply in this topic, it has nothing to do with not finding/reading the sim-card
p.s.: my wording may seem wrong but well meaning, my english is not perfect since it is not my native language
ahhh .... the device I was rooting was simlocked, he didn't say anything ffs.. that's why
@op try flashing a stock rom(remove sim card), then factory reset in recovery, then flash philz, then flash w/e u want

[Q] imei 0

Hey guys I bought my sg3 about 3 months ago from a friend who had cynogen mod on the phone and it worked fine but I had cynogen mod on auto update and now my imei shows as 0 via *#06# and I cant call or text etc. Unfortunately I do not have a backup from when the imei worked because I didnt expect it to do this. So far Ive removed cynogen mod and reset it to stock firmware but im having the same issue any suggestions?
Its the SGH1747 version

Your baseband is probably corrupted. You may try reflashing a stock modem/baseband via recovery. I had a similar problem once, although I was on stock ROM, and re-flashing the modem zip worked.
I, however, tread very carefully here as I am aware the forum is wary about discussions relating to IMEI.

You can look up peoplearmy's method (google it). You will not find help on how to fix IMEI on XDA. I had my IMEI wiped out a while back after flashing a bad rom. I had to get it put back, and then had to get LTE back.
Good luck.

Can you go to Settings => About Device and see what you have under Baseband version? Whilst you are there, also check what Android version it says and the build number.

Everything looks OK as your baseband version would likely read 'unknown' if it's bad. You may, however, still try re-flashing the modem via the method posted in the attached thread ... Please proceed at your own peril as I offer no guarantee that this will work or will not result in damaged phones,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898
Please note you will need custom recovery (e.g. CWM or TWRP). You will find instructions for installing custom recovery at the bottom of the thread. If this doesn't work, then you may try doing a hard wipe from recovery and reinstalling everything including system ROM, modem and kernel.
Hope it works out for you.
Simple fix is to reinject imei which located behind the battery.. But sometimes for some reason if you do this, you'll stuck with edge network, can be fix though but you gotta go back to stock in order to do so

you will have to google peoplearmy imei lte and find the tutorial on how to restore imei and get LTE back.
You will not be able to find the thread on XDA because XDA deleted it sometime ago. I was like you and lost my imei. Once I re-injected it using a tutorial on XDA, I was stuck on edge. Then I finally found peoplearmy's tutorial, downloaded the programs and followed the steps to get LTE back. I got it back and haven't lost it since.

I can't find the link, can you PM me it?
I had that happen to me with a 0 on my phone and was able to get it back I had no backup either what I did is go on the NV Data restore or NV writer thread and downloaded the NV writer and put myself back on stock ...I went thru a few pages in the post and someone had a file where you could put your IMEI into that file maybe it was set up thru notepad but you could fill in the zeros with your IMEI and name it I think a txt.file after then open the NV writer and instead of backing it up cause you can't just restore that file where you fill in you're IMEI and it went right back into my phone. There also a video on that page how to do it. You just need basically that file to put your IMEI back in. I might still have it if not keep going thru the post took find it. There a picture of what it looks like to restore if you list it but every time I tried to open that link to restore it wouldn't let me. Hope it wasn't to confusing but it's basically a white box with a bunch of zeros and replace the zeros with your IMEI and save it as atxt. File I believe and just restore it as shown in the video for backing it up but just restore instead it does work cause I didn't have an IMEI on my phone it just had a zero

[Q] Kitkat Mobile Network Problem

Hello, i have flashed nearly all of the kitkat roms to my HOX, everything was ok but mobile network doesn't work. There isnt any anormal situation on status bar, it looks like connecting with 3g but when i try to connect to the internet, it says there is no connection. i have tried everything but i cannot solve this problem. i am using the latest CWM. and i am flashing the roms from Viper Rom. Is there anyone who to help me? and also when i try to return Viper rom, i am flashing viper boot.img and applying full wipe, but i am having trouble with aroma installer, it says something "asserts failed. getprop" like that. i can only return to viper with my android recovery. Please help me.
For the assert issue take s recovery like the latest test img of twrp as it works with sense roms like viper and kitkat roms so no need to change always the recovery....did you really flashed the boot.img of the Rom you flashed? Also try to change apn settings or so

I have accidentally changed my IMEI before by flashing custom ROMS. Do a bit of research into the matter, if your IMEI has changed, I think your service provider prevents you from connecting to the network. This is just a guess
Good Luck.

S4 is a S-OFF device by default the HOX is S-ON by default you can't change your IMEI!!!

[Q] HTC M8. Phone boots only in fastboot and I can't do anything (factory reset etc)

Hi guys. I have a problem with my M8 (international).
Start topic was here http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...-boots-fastboot-factory-t2952954#post57042833 but I took an advice and open the same topic in general theme.
Hi everyone. I got a problem with my HTC M8.
First of all, I didn't make with it any changes (as unlock bootloader, root or installing any custom OS or recovery etc.) Week ago I left device, connected to PC for all night, and, I gess, with "bad" micro-USB cable.
Next day I couldn't boot this phone. I connected it to charger and after little time it was loaded to fastboot. But up today I can't do anything with phone: I can't unlock it, can't factory reset, can't boot to recovery etc...
I tried to find any same simptomes in google, but found nothing
As you can see on screenshots, I made steps for unlock bootloader but on device I didn't see notification about unlocking.

Could you help me with advices? Thanks.
I'm taking a bit of a guess but some how system has got wipe but that seems a bit off for a locked phone but since it's locked I would take it back to where you got it from and get them to sort it.

I would normally say the same. But the OP mentioned in another thread posted in the wrong forum section (linked in his post) that he bought from Canada but lives in Ukraine, so I think warranty is not valid. It would have been helpful for the OP to give all the relevant details in this new post.
I agree, it looks like his OS and possibly recovery have somehow become wiped, corrupted, or damaged. Not common for a stock device, but not unheard of, either.

Hi
I had a similar problem to you where I was stuck in fastboot mode and the only command it would execute was POWER DOWN and when switched back on it returned to fastboot mode. However I ended up in that state due to making a mistake in trying to unlock and root my phone. Also I believe my display showed the RADIO and OpenDSP details rather than the INVALID_VER_INFO that your's is showing.
I thought I had deleted the rom and recovery on my device and I had bricked my phone however I was able to recover my phone by getting a new unlocktoken from HTC and flashing it.
Once I had successfully unlocked my phone I had access to my rom and recovery.
I see from your first image that you tried to unlock your phone and it shows that 'unlock token check successful' but images 2 and 3 show that the phone is still 'LOCKED' so it may be worth going to the HTC site, get a new unlock token and try again.
If it doesn't work, it shouldn't do anymore harm either!
Best of luck.

Yes, I did this And in consol I saw that everything was fine, but on device I didn't see standart notification about unlocking.
A found some topics about "INVALID_VER_INFO" - and they said that it can be ok for some devices (guys checked this on their worked devices, booted to fastboot and saw the same).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715056 here is the topic about "INVALID...".
btw - I tried unlock phone after another man. He did the same - receive .bin from dev. HTC site etc. I did the same, but from another HTC dev. account and result was the same Phone didn't unlock.
It could be that the recovery has got messed up because I believe recovery is used to do it since unlocking will wipe data. The only things I can think of is a real ruu as in it full rom and firmware exe (good luck with that) or you could try just firmware ruu, riff box or HTC themselves.

Could anyone help with RUU process? What information I should have for correct RUU update? I found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173 but I'm not sure that I have SPRINT device.
I need an information, how I can be sure, that I use correct file for RUU my HTC? Is it bootloader version, or operator version (Sprint, Verison etc.) or something else? As I wrote, I can open information about my phone in Fastboot (I can check my SN, CID, bootloader version etc.)

For a ruu to work it needs to have matching cid, guess mid and has to be same version or higher than what's on the phone. You can't flash the wrong one it won't let you.
Edit, also the one you linked to won't work.

5 tried to flash the newest firmware maybe that will activate it with no luck, I get error stating name does not match in the android info file, tried to edit with notepad++ and entered correct information, re zipped, still giving me errors
6 tried downloading stock image files several times for my service provider, but because the file is so big, it somehow cancels when it reaches 90% network error, and dl won't restart, gotta start all over and same thing happend, cannot get a complete package to try that.
the phone works great with viper rom, its just that I can't use it because of no imei or baseband, I am guessing the previous owner erased the efs partition of the phone while trying new roms, and with backup on hand, I have no idea what to do - my guess IMEI repair or generating a new esf partition with the correct information will work, but how do I do that ?
I am not an expert, just did enough reading and spend some money to get this phone working.
If you have a better idea, or would like to help me I can compensate you for your time.
Thank you so much
it's actually not that easy to erase the efs partition (if it's there on htc devices) without much knowledge...
which operator do you have and which main_version is the original one? i noticed that superCID doesn't work with all firmware.zip don't know why, somehow i wasn't able to flash all and for some i needed to change t he cid to the one matching the firmware, even if it's x.xx.401.x firmware

thanks for writing
I had problems flashing firmware as you stated, even though I am supercid , tried once more to flash the latest firmware by changing my id's to the file, almost crashing/bricking my phone, errors, I accidental unplugged phone and it stopped, there was a don't power off warning too, but that stopped once the phone was unplugged from pc, tried again, flashed a NO WIPE firmware M9_3.35* DEV edition and after that flashed the viper rom, worked smoothly the process didnt take as long like before , and it worked, had my imei and baseband. Now it might not be perfect, because I am not getting full reception (3-4 bars at all times) but it works which is great! I will leave it like that unless I can flash a radio that is suitable for this firmware/phone (rogers/canada)
My signal indoors is 3 bars in a high signal area so you probably fixed it.

Sorry to resurrect this few month old thread, but I'm currently experiencing the same issue as the OP.
What firmware file did you flash to get things working again?
Cheers
Hi,
Same issue here.
I flashed the Bell firmware for my phone and I still have no IMEI...
