Hey there,
I kind of broked my phone.
Yesterday I decided to finally flash AOKP to my GNex, but after doing everything (unlock, root, rename of recovery file and flashing the .zips) my Baseband Verison was unknown and I was not even ask to enter my PIN.
Until now I found out, that the Filesystem of the Baseband might be corrupted, when I try to flash a new Baseband TWRP only says "Failed".
My next Step is to flash the original Firmware, but I have less hope. Is there a way to restore or repair the Baseband without sending it in?
And no, I dont made a backup :crying:
I was now somehow able to flash a radio Image via fastboot by typing fastboot flash radio radio.img .
Now when I am in Fastboot it says:
Baseband i9250XXLH1
but in the runnings System the Baseband is still marked as Unknown.

radios are different for gsm and LTE, make sure you flash the right one
My Nexus also lost IMEI, and missed the baseband. And now it has no tel signal but WIFI.
What I have done in the past days: 1. I updated it from 4.2.2 to 4.3 by OTA, but it failed for I deleted some google apps. 2. Then I flashed it using factory image downloaded from goole, and it works well for days. but yesterday, it could not found the phone network suddenly. And then I found that the baseband missing, and also IMEI.. And now, I re-flash it again using 4.2.2,4.3, but it doesn't work..someone said maybe EFS was corrupted. I don't know what to do now..
Anyone who know how to fix it?
Thanks.

If it is a corrupt EFS partition, You can re-write the IMEI back to the handset using a PC tool, i wouldn't recommend this as it is illegal were i live.
There are many IMEI changer programmes for PC.
Next bet is restore to full stock remove any trace of system mods and send it in for warranty and say when it was plugged into PC to upgrade you can say it black screened whilst upgrading and upon reboot said no service etc.

Hi,
I had DMF1 baseband/modem version on my STOCK XEF (France) ROM.
I have used the same Stock (downloaded from samfirmware) and flashed it because I messed up my system through flashing GT-I9000 by mistake.
So I had DME4 Baseband, and I get no signale, Airplane mode grayed out.
I downloaded here a modem.bin , that I flashed through PHONE via ODIN, and I got baseband DMF1.
However, the problem is everytime I restart, I get baseband unknown and I have to restore backup of EFS.
I tried getting a UAE (my country) Modem (XXDLK7) but it is a modem.bin file and I don't know what to do with it, also it is not DMF1 which was the working one I had back then.
Any help guys?
thanks!
GT-N7100
Edit:
I got the XXDLK7 and everything works fine now, but now the IMEI is 004999010640000 / 01. Regardless of how many times I restored the EFS :\
I'm really desperate. I wish I didn't even root the phone.
Edit2L
So now I have two options:
1-XXDLK7, Working , with a Wrong IMEI.
2-DMF1, Works once per EFS restore, but correct IMEI.
:\
I'd go with option 1 if it works fine even the IMEI is wrong :/
There are modems here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31986738&postcount=7
Hope it helps
BTW, I have a friend who owns a Note I with wrong IMEI, works fine and has signal and all, one problem though, he can't lock his phone lol.
with random IMEI the phone can call, answer etc..??

No.
Gladly I fixed this buy patching an OTA update through Odin Mobile with Root and Odin apk, then flashing (without modem) the Stock DME6 ROM.
then restoring EFS.
weird how Samsung couldn't fix it for me :/
Recently, I've flashed a r800a, unlocked with the help of Alejandrissimo, with CyanogenMod and it was working wonderfully.
Since it's a relative's backup phone, I decided to do one last cleanup and return it to them. Inside Android itself, I called for a factory reset and, by accident, clicked on "wipe SD Card" as well.
Silly me, I totally forgot about wiping SD Cards and losing IMEIs with CyanogenMOD (I still keep a /EFS backup of my original Galaxy S).
After a reboot, I noticed that the IMEI is listed as Unknown. I didn't try putting a SimCard in it, to see if the network allows unknown IMEIs to be on it, but I'm somewhat worried now.
I had a ClockworkMod backup of the original firmware, but it was on the phone itself, so that's a goner. I'm thinking reflashing the original stock .FTF file, but I don't think that will restore my IMEI, will it?
Any help?
Since I figured this wouldn't have much support, I decided to do some research for the past 3 hours and managed to fix it myself.
I fixed it by flashing the stock version of the 2.3.4 Generic American firmware for the x800a using Flashtool version 0.6.9.1 (the newer ones wouldn't recognize the .FTF files).
That recovered my IMEI and Baseband. Then I re-installed Cyanogenmod 9.1.0 by following the CyanogenMod blog instructions and the IMEI and Baseband are still there.
I tested with a simcard and I can, again, make calls and join the network.
Hope this can be helpful for other people that find the same issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hi, I have just flashed Rooted Note 2 on 4.3 to the latest stock ROM which I downloaded from the SamMobile and now it will not register on the network.
The new version I flashed was the same as the old as i found it with the CSC N7100BTUEMK2 on sam mobile.
I checked the IMEI and it says 00499010640000 in status menu which is different from the one under the battery.
I did not perform a backup of anything as I was not worried about losing any data.
Any ideas what has happened to it and how to get the IMEI correct again?
I understand this is something to do with an efs file but in what way it has become faulty from flashing the same rom I cannot decipher
Any help much appreciated! :good:

From my experience:
1) Reflash the ROM.
2) Flash a custom ROM.
Both worked for me.
N7105 rocking AOSB with AGNi kernel,
Click "Thanks" if I was of any help!
Thanks, I have reflashed the current 4.3 rom UEMK9 and a slightly older UEMK4 with a DEMJ9 radio.
I have tried lots of radios - DM3, XXDME4, XXMI6, XXMJ5, XXMJ2, and some other modem.bin
From what I understand its when you go from newer to older roms that you get IMEI problems, so its prob useless to try pre 4.3
Its all a bit confusing to me and which rom has which radio seems like an arcane mystery.
It is quite possible that I flashed a same version 4.3 rom but my old radio was different and not knowing it was such a minefield on Galaxy phones I never checked that or bothered with a back up.
I may have to resort to paying the people at unlocksamsung online £26 to reset my IMEI
Can anyone tell me, is it just the radio that causes the IMEI problem and should I just trawl through flashing radio zips until my IMEI comes back so I can save the efs file?
BTY everything else seems ok SN is correct and wifi works fine, I just can't get on a network without my correct IMEI
Thx
i also have the same issue on my note 2 gt-n7100 and now phone does no respond to the touch post rooting and all..i am tired of rooting and unrooting the phone like 100 times allready and now my phone is stuck in loop
So I was trying to root my phone. I unlocked the bootloader from HTCdev and managed to install TWRP. I selected the read and write option though I think that may have been a mistake reading some of the posts on this forum.
Anyways the next step was flashing superuser unfortunately I flashed the latest version however apparently only till 2.64 works. This caused a bootloop. As I had no ideas, I wiped my phone and installed CM13. Now my phone boots up and runs perfectly and I can install other ROMs too but one critical error is that my phone doesn't recognize my sim card. It says baseband is unknown and IMEI number field is blank if I check using the dialer. My phone is S-ON.
This seems to be a common error around this forum but I can't find a solution which helps me.
Most people suggest flashing the stock rom but since my phone is S-ON I can only flash the Canadian videotron version which I can't find anywhere. I found nandroid twrp backup here in the following link but I don't know what to do with it. I put it on my phone but obviously I can't flash it nor does TWRP automatically find it to restore it. Do I have to flash it from my computer somehow like ODIN is used for Samsung(?) phones ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

i dont think this will work i think i have tried this exact one with no avail
As long as you didn't flash pie and lose your baseband that way, you can fix it.
If you're on stock just go to recovery and do a factory reset from there, it should bring your baseband back. However, if you've flashed a modem from a firmware not intended for your phone, then you need to reflash the correct firmware then recovery, factory reset. If you flashed pie not intended for your phone, you might be out of luck depending on what variant you have.

Stick to one thread or create your own, posting the same problem in 20 different threads won't help you in any way.
