arent imei's coded to the hardware like a MAC address? not sure if there is much we can do...
when you say imei is danger, are you referring to a sidekick kinda danger? if so, you got me stumped. how did you manage to change the imei?

i talk over imei of phone, it is wrong phone imei original is 351553016438023 but when you try see imei with *#06# phone show 00440000350111200, the two finish numbers is for t-mobile phone but same imei is bad.
the history is: the phone working good 2 weeks with tornado sim for unlock but one day phone show new time sp code entry, tornado sim do not working more for unlock it phone, the own contact to me for unlock it phone and it when i see that imei is bad.
phone is not in black list or other ilegal case. if have error in imei.

cant you call the provider and ask them? it doesnt sound like something that can be fixed on a forum...i may be totally wrong like usual though.. jockyw2001 might have some insight...i dunno

dang thats weird yea jus go with gixxum and call them that would be my best gues

Messing with IMEI numbers is how phones are cloned and, consequently, is illegal in most countries.
There are plenty of tools available but I suspect the Mods will stomp all over a thread regarding their use.
Also, it's a really bad idea to post your IMEI number on a forum.
Honest.
** EDIT - If you must, then post a friends, sit back and watch the bills keep rolling in ...

I had the same problem with my t-mobile wing; which i am using att sim card; the phone and card both unlocked. the only way i found to get rid of the error message was to re flash my phone with a different rom from xda developers. The phone would dial out upon every time it was restarted and cost me 15 cents every time. now i don't have to worry about turning off my phone and getting nickel and dime to death.

i also have the same problem

It is illegal to change an IMEI for ANY reason. Even if it is done accidentally. I suggest not calling your service provider and just getting a new phone.

If you have restored the backup properly, just try to factory reset the firmware...
Which method you had used to backup and restore EFS?

I did not have EFS backup so I used SRS unlock client with UART cable to bring back the original IMEI, now my IMEI and S/N is correct but phone still wont register on network. Any ideas?

Please help me too , same situation
previously worked with dlk6 or dll6 firmware/modem on 4.1.2
When I flashed 4.3 Xperia-z1-ized ROM . Device showed correct imei and MK1 modem from the ROM but says "not registered in network "
Have no Idea what went wrong. I have no backup of any EFS or anything .
I installed emergency firmware upgrade via Kies and now running stock 4.3 Android UBUEMJ4 Modem , build number : MK4 Status : offical.
I don't even know if i can root my device with current stock firmware.

Bad Imei

Note 7 null IMEI, need to write it back. Donation for sure.

Hello dear XDA users!
First of all I would like to give offer to one that will solve my problem, I will send him 30 EUR directly to his PayPal account.
I am Note 7 Lover as I am collector of these phones.
I have many succesful Note 7 phones recovered from death updates which were fully discharged.
But I did great mistake which I can´t live with.
I had one Note 7 , fully functioning with all connectivities. I managed to install HydraRom and Hydrakernel there on my own as I did it many times before. I am an idiot I didn´t make backup of the system and mainy EFS in working state.
I broke display a little on my primary Note 7 so I needed to recover my TWRP backup on another phone but I accidentally checked restore also EFS partion from my previous phone.
So the phone just turned on and No service, Baseband unknown. My great mistake.
Tried lots of original ROM restore, reflashing HydraRom or radios/kernels, nothing works.
I read a lot about what i did, I have no backup of EFS partion from the one that has problem. I have only Samsung Box with only IMEI written on it, back cover is changed so there is no IMEI or S/N.
I googled a lot, tried all the programs (Z3x, Chimera, Octopus) but none of them has capability to write IMEI directly to the this N930F phone.
I finally found a software called SAMFIX V1.3 and after clicking Baseband in the HydraRom phone menu is visible
The phone is able to look for carriers (but only one) but had NULL IMEI.
Wifi and Bluetooth works well, but there is no IMEI when i dial *#06# and imei is 0000000000. And Bonus is that the phone acts as Dual SIM, through it is only N930F single SIM. So the phone menu in HydraRom after dialing says 0000 for both IMEIs.
I tried to write IMEI with software IMEI changer via xposed, but it "writes" it only for the system instance.
Phone is still unable to find my carrier of connect to one.
When i tried to see device info with all softwares it says:
PDA Version: N930FXXU2BPJ8
Baseband Version: N930FXXU2BPI5
CSC Version: N930FOXM2BPI5
Please help me to restore EFS somehow, or at least to succesfully write IMEI and S/N (which i don´t really have) to phone and can connect to my network as before my idiosm I did with restoring ROM from "same" but different device.
Who will help me will get 30EUR from me (student) on his PayPal.

Did you tried stock firmware? If not flash N930FXXU3BPL2, and do wipe. https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-7/help/n930fxxu3bpl2-t3520988/page2

Hello!
I tried flashing oficial firmware, didn´t solve my problem, or something called COMBINATION Factory binary but this failed.
Radio and baseband is all OK, I have two other phones exactly with this firmwares and versions and they work all OK.
Problem is with EFS and CERT, before wrongly restoring this partion with TWRP backup from another NOTE 7 SM-N930F the phone worked all OK.
I managed to do with many softwares to write IMEI and S/N and it succeeded!
It is written in CERT file and not only with some IMEI changer for system run instance. It is readable via ADB.
Phone can unlock the SIM card but is unable to load carriers.
I read a lot of this problem and I compared CERT file of a backuped one and CERT on the restored one after my IMEI repair.
The CERT on the recovered one has it´s own IMEI now but has same ImeiSign,PubKey,PubKeySign as the backuped one from what I made restoration with TWRP.
So these codes are OK for the IMEI and S/N on the working one but they are inconert for the not working one because of encrypting.
I tried to flash CERT from the working one to bricked one but this does not work because of some CPID encrypting or so.
Have you please any solution to
1. Fully restore working EFS on the phone to work as before?
2. Try to make calculation for the right ImeiSign,PubKey,PubKeySign for that IMEI?
