[Q] i dont have signal and imei on shg t999

i use odin for re store the phoe after restore no imei no network please help.

What did you do?!?!
Kidding...
This is a very common issue, and there is a thread in the development section on how to restore your imei.

please help
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.

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.
-IMEI injection
-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.

[Q] Generic IMEI after OTA 4.3 upgrade

Hello to everyone, I was wondering if anyone can help with this. I have a Galaxy Note 2 branded by an Italian company (3hg Italia). It recently received its update to Android 4.3 (update N7100XXUEML2). It was the official update OTA, the phone is not rooted and it had the stock ROM on it. The update somehow messed up my IMEI making it appear as the generic 0049 forcing me on "Emergency calls only" mode. I already tried flashing the same ROM with Odin and repeating the update with KIES, but while the updates always results successful the IMEI remains 0049. I never made a backup of the EFS folder for this phone since I haven't rooted it or flashed any different ROM on it yet. There is any chance that the phone made an automatic backup? I live in the States right now and Samsung tells me I need to ship it back to Italy to have it fixed, but that costs a lot and would take forever, and I would much prefer try to solve the problem locally. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, if not for any fix that I can try myself, at least some place on the West Coast that can fix the problem!
Thank you!
Lorenzo

Oh I forgot to add that because of Hardware problems I recently sent my phone to Samsung and they replaced the motherboard, which fixed the problem I was having. I don't know if that could be related!

I'm afraid that fix works just if you have your actual IMEI, I instead have the generic IMEI that starts with 0049. But I will check it out! Thanks!

So I found someone nice enough to give me a hand with this situation, but still no luck yet! Here what they say:
At first glance, the EFS data on the phone was corrupt. I re-generated
that data and restored it to the phone without success.
The GSM radio itself is operational, and the firmware for it is
installed and functional. diagnostic data flows to the towers and back
to the phone but it's not reading the IMEI from the copy of
nv_data.bin contained within EFS. I've re-generated and installed
those files as well, again with no luck.
I rolled the device back to it's original factory firmware and radio
baseband, then ran through the update for the radio baseband, which
also regenerates the contents of EFS, and still no luck.
Given the situation, anyone have other suggestions?

[Q] IMEI says 0 on 4.4.1

Hey guys, I think I screwed up. I think that I lost my IMEI through flashing it and I didn't make a back up. It says 0 and only very few of the *# codes work, the *#7285# and #22745927 codes do absolutely nothing and the only one that I know of that works is *#*#4636#*#* which doesn't help me at all. Most programs that I use don't detect the phone correctly or my phones just downright wrecked. Example is DFS says CPS N/A in every section and Samsung MEID Repair says "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application" when I try to connect it to my phone.
I'm running CM11 4.4.1 and I had the problem when I was running a 4.3 ROM. Also I have data and I can make calls. Its just that I cant send MMS and I drop to edge over time and stay on edge until I restart.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Everyone I call is saying it'll cost $65 - $75 IF they can even fix it.

Try to use nv writer to inject the imei.

I did not. That helps a LOT. Thank you so much. I havent tried going back yet, I'm gonna be more cautious about what i do now. Can I go back to stock from CM11 4.4.1 without screwing anything up? I keep seeing that you cant downgrade. Is that the case or is it just the case with official android roms?
Thank you so much, I feel like with your help I may be able to fix this. What im thinking that I have to do (I'll wait for your opinion) is that I should flash to stock, use the nv reader/writer, then ill be able to reroot it? When you say that it could screw up the network, what exactly do you mean?

I'm not sure what bootloader are you using
but IF your phone is fully unlocked, it doesn't matter, just flash 4.3 Stock and you're good to go
check out this post if you need help getting back to stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
the reason why you see people keep saying you can't "Downgrade" is mostly due to the bootloader you have, and it only apply to if and only if you're downgrading from MJB bootloader to a older version of Touchwiz (ie. Touchwiz 4.3 which will obviously come with MJB, thus you can't downgrade to 4.2 or 4.1 versions of touchwiz), not AOSP. if you're on AOSP in which CM is one, yes you can go from one AOSP to another, but no one does it because most of the time newer > older =D

Yes.
but again you might want to update it to latest version since according to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486, he mentioned version 6.0.4.5 and 6.0.4.7 though he didn't say if it's necessary to be but to be safe, you should so that you won't run into any issues.
though again, let me warn you, Reinjecting your IMEI, will work, BUT at the same time, it might screw up with your broadband
I experienced it once with one of my S3 and it stuck on either E or G network.. and I had to fix it by copy my efs folder to that phone in order to fix(and unless you have a good friend with S3 phone with same model, or own more than 1 S3, you won't be able to do it since nobody want to share, apply to me as well)

So despite being stuck in factory mode I was able to write the NV and luckily I dont have any new network problems as far as I know. However my IMEI now says / 00 and in the phone info it says "unknown"

So this is my progress so far. I have made connection with the NV items reader and I have saved the NV file. when i rewrote it i noticed that my imei is / 00 and it says unknown in the phone info. I have my imei and my converted imei and i was going to insert it into line 00550 but that line says "00550 (0x0226) - Inactive item". Factory mode is still on, I have edited the text files for both factory mode and keystr from ON to OFF and back again rebooting my phone each time and getting no result.
So im stuck in factory mode with / 00 imei. I can however make connection with programs now, I feel like im moving forward.
I feel like it may be worth noting that ive never ever seen a nv_data.bin in my phone....

make sure that you take your SIM out before injecting imei... then try again
and nv_data.bin is in your efs folder which you can only see it if you have some sort of root explorer

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!!!

in the same post he have mentioned how to recover lost imei/efs please read
How to recover lost IMEI that happens with downgrading ROM
If you have lost IMEI just by downgrading (as said by above by flashing older ROM), still you can recover IMEI without having EFS backup.
-Again upgrade ROM will restore IMEI OR
-Flash latest Modem. You can find it here.. You can download MG1 modem and flash using PC Odin with 'Phone' tab instead of PDA.
Remember above said works only if IMEI is corrupted by downgrading ROM only, if it was corrupted by other things, this won't be helpful.
Also Read This, if you have issue restoring EFS OR device stuck to factory mod.
Hope this will find helpful to all newbies regarding question about EFS and IMEI problem. I have posted this to general section so newbie can post to it if they have any queries.

hi sorry for the delayed replay, for stock if you have DNY try to find same and according to my knowledge try to downgrade your phone.
and regarding the above thread you have mentioned i have never tried but you can post in that same thread and ask for help.
