Can someone tell me if the 512.pit file is generic?
Willl the one that has been used on the Galaxy S 1900 work with the Nexus S GT-I9020.
The .pit file I have is named: s1_odin_20100512.pit
This Is very important as it may help a couple hundred people restore there IMEI numbers and un-brick there phones.
If not can someone point me in the right direction as to where I can get the correct .pit file for the Nexus S GT-I9020 - 3G
Thanks in advance
How did this happened? What ROM did you flash?

have you got any ideas on how we can fix this, I was hoping to flash back to stok with Odin re-formating, but I need the correct .pit file and can't find one anywhere.
Thanks
I've read the not even replacing that file will do the trick mate...I'm looking in to this issue as we speak.
Be patient

Thanks mate, its really appreciated.
I was looking to trade for a Nexus S and got offered one with this issue and another one that installed the earlier build of this ROM. Did this issue occur with earlier versions of that NexusSense ROM or just build 0.3?
Have any of you guys tried to get in contact with Samsung to see if a warranty would work in that case?

Do you think it's do-able ??
This apk looks promising and it installs OK, but doesn't resolve it. It has all the rite commands but it was written for the Galaxy S. Could it not be adapted for the Nexus S ??
Gallaxy unlock tool .apk, with built in signal problems tool = erase efs, restore original IMEI and product code, make bin file.
Just what we need but for the Nexus S.
Well...after gathering the Android eggheads and geeks it was decided that there is nothing we can do about this issue but we did find out that it only affects Nexus S devices.
Sorry mate

So, this is a link the explain how to recover e optimus 2x imei, but i think that the software used in the process is universal, but you have to be on stock rom. You can get your imei at the box of your SGG.

The easiest way is to backup is copy the efs folder somewhere like your pc. but you have to be rooted to do that..

My IMEI is 000000000000000 too.
Hi, I installed CM 10.1 on my Grand Duos and the modem of cellphone don`t work rightly. So I was try fix it and turn my imei to "000000000000000"... I already try fix it installing the stock ROM, by a Terminal Emulator and by "Enginner Mode" (that I cann`t access). So I beg to anyone that know how can I put back my original IMEI! I swear that is just to do it!
Thank You.
My solution to problem!
If You live in Brazil, change to Vivo and the chip will work!
same issue got solved
I found my phone lagging after skies upgraded to 4.2.2
then by following some article on internet, i downgraded to 4.1.2 using odin and samsung stock rom
My IMEI got changed to all zeros and I could n't make changes
I found many articles on internet for changing IMEI for MTK based or qualcomm based smartphone
My GT-i9082 hardware was Capri_ss_baffin
I used samsung skies to upgrade 4.1.2 to back 4.2.2 (which is latest as of this writing)
I got my IMEI no back and solved the issue of delay issue by checking "Do not keep activities" in developer options

Good technique :good:
Hey guys, just registered to post about a problem I've encountered with my galaxy s3 i9300. I rooted my phone and flashed cyanogen mod 10.2. After this everything looked good but then I realised that my mobile network wasn't working. I searched around the web for a few weeks now and found out that the problem was my imei number. My IMEI number changed to 004999010640000 from the official number under my battery and I couldn't find out how to restore it. Apparently I should have backed up my EFS folder before the rooting process but I didn't know.
Is there any way to restore my current IMEI number back to the official IMEI number without the EFS folder?
I'm new to this sort of stuff and I would really appreciate it if somebody could tell me something about this problem..Thanks in advance!!
You posted on the wrong Device forum. This is one of the US version of S3. You should really be posting to the International S3 forum over here.
There are possible answers to your problem. But best answers if you ask on the right forum.
In this case you definitely need to post in the I9300 forum. Yours is a known, common issue, but the tools we have will not work on your model. I don't know if there's a fix for yours, but if there is it'll be in your forum. Good luck!

Hi everybody,
Ive been getting trouble with imei-lost without any backup process before. So now my phone is in no signal condition.
So, if any of you folk have already done with the Efs backup, please give me your EFS.img file.
Maybe it could help someway.
or anyone who has another solution, please post below.
Much apriciated
Uhmm...NOPE! Not sure ANYONE on here is willing to give you their backup of their EFS.img
Been having the same issue. ... Lg g3 ls990 users have a thread for efs.img & not just for sprint! Every single model... smh
