IMEI problem

Ok, so here is the story:
I had CM 10 installed. After changing mobile operators I found out that my phone was locked. So i searched how to unlock. One of the ways I tried is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176721
Than I have tried installing this app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spocky.galaxsimunlock&hl=en
I have also been putting original Samsung stock (through Odin) and I always get the same error when I try to dial: Not registered on network.
When I have installed the "galaxy Sim Unlock app" I saw that the app said that my phone is now unlocked but it has invalid IMEI. So I went to check my IMEI and found I had a problem - the IMEI has changed to : 004999010640000/01
When trying to unlock the phone using the above XDA link and inputted the code :*#197328640#
I didn't have UMTS option on the main manu. I had the "DEBUG SCREE" and after clicking that I had PHONE CONTROL and after clicking that I had NETWORK LOCK and NETWORK CONTROL but I didn't have the "Perso SHA256 OFF" option.
I also can't find the the "Qualcomm USB" when I input *#7284# like in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AlQmfMJBK0
I have my original IMEI written on the box but I don't know how to restore it. The phone is GT-N7100.
Anyone got any idea how to fix my phone ? Thank you

I not the one who made the thread but already do it and nothing happens! My phone is the same as him.

flashing the new rom wont solve the problem you should work with adb and repair your efs and imei.

I couldn't wait anymore so I had it restored in the official Samsung repair store. I tried flashing the official firmware several times but no good came from that. Anyway, I hope that other people can have better luck than me and thank you for your help

wHEN YOU RECOVER YOUR imei, your number is the same that the one one the back of your phone or not? mine is diferent.

Professional Help and advise needet.

Hello to everybody,
First of all sorry for my english.
So about what is the tread
There is arround 10 bricked phones in Bulgarian Android Forum.Becouse we cant find where is the problem I decide to ask here.
Problem: After flashing stock test 4.3 and downgrade after back to 4.1.2 the result is --IMEI 0049 and Permanent Test Mode.
what we know until now:
Phones bought from shops for phones reported they downgrade back without issues
Phones bought from mobile operators -bricked IMEI
Flashing again 4.3 after brick do not restore IMEI
P.s
Sorry if the tread is on wrong place and 10x for your opinions about problem

Find someone knows English better to translate it for you
Impact on device/How I know I have corrupted EFS
When there is EFS partition is corrupted, device loses IMEI and due to this device can't gets connected to network. Baseband info also sometimes shows unknown.
-Check your IMEI in setting / by dialling *#06# if it is null OR if it starts with 0049** then IMEI is generic and corrupted. In Normal case IMEI which you can see in device setting or dialing *#06# is exactly same you can see on bill/box/sticker under battery compartment
-If you are unable to connect to network in spite of correct IMEI, chance are
A. Your device is Locked to specific Network OR
B. Your device is banned due to tempered IMEI
-If your AP,CP,CSC all are correct and even you are getting error (unknown CSC XXX) on kies update, it may be due to corrupt Product code in EFS. Read This for detail.

If you dont have efs backup then you probably need the z3x box to make repair for your imei and change it to the original one didnt test the ariza patch on this kind of problem but why not give it a shot

[Q] Phone signal problems

I have got at&t unlocked phone and I haven't had any problem from above an year but I have been having signal problems from two weeks now. Messages come and go after hours, sometimes they are quick. It's like my phone is on it's own mood whether to send or not. When I try to check credits I get the error "Connection problem or inavlid MMI code". Sometimes my phone's carrier disappear too. Signals are all full. I tried porting into another carrier and found no difference at all.
I think it's related to IMEI because when I *#06# then a pop comes written "0" on it instead of showing IMEI code. Please help! Thanks!

For some reason, it looks like the folder containing your IMEI has been corrupted. Try to re-install the imei using NV writer.

Have you recently updated your rom or flashed anything? Maybe you could flash the modem files again and fix your problem?
When you go to about phone what does it say for baseband?

I think the problem occurred after I flashed leaked version of stock 4.3. Firmware was I747UCUEMJ2. I flashed CyanogenMod 10.2 hoping that it might fix the problem but it didn't made any difference.
I checked baseband version and surprisingly, it's I747UCUEMJ2. So, what do you think? Is that the problem? Also, how can I fix this? Last question, what if I restore IMEI etc then will it still be unlocked or I will need an at&t sim?

Restoring will not re-lock the phone. If your imei and baseband appear correct, I don't think you need to inject the imei.
You could use Odin to flash back to stock and see if the problem persists.

Yes, it does.

Sorry to disturb but I have a question. Since carriers over here doesn't provide micro-sim so we have to cut out large sims and then ready to use. So, I did that but I also noticed that my friend who has S3 got smaller sim circuit and my sim's circuit covers almost whole sim. Maybe that could be the problem? Please answer so I can then contact carrier.

What bootloader and modem is on your phone?
Do not attempt to flash anymore stock ROMs on your phone until you know the current bootloader. Sounds like you have at least a 4.3 bootloader and attempts to downgrade the bootloader can brick you phone.
