When did you unlock with freegee? If its after February you have efs backups in /sdcard/freegee automatically

Since IMEI spoofing is illegal in most country, the IMEI is most likely encrypted. I don't know how it is input on the Optimus G, but I had an issue back with my Galaxy S, and let me tell you, just hope you have a backup!!

this is terrible.. but with jtag i have to disassembly my phone?

other solution????
no. only JTAG or you have the internal LG IMEI repair tool
Hmm, I am coming from Samsung world and there flashing a Samsung ROM would always restore the IMEI, not the case with LG?

where can I found it????? in internet i don't found...
you cant find it. its INTERNAL
JTAG is a tool, made by RIFF, not just a software.Any respectable gsm service has one.Rewriting software with JTAG costs between 10 and 20 euros,depending on the phone.At least here in Romania it costs this much.Don't know other countries.
Bottom line, writing the IMEI it's not a DIY job.it can be done only with proper tools,on a specialised center.
I think there would be another way,but i'm not sure, you need to talk to shelnutt or autoprime to confirm or not.
If the EFS backup from other phone can be decompiled,and the IMEI section is find,change the existing imei on that backup with yours, recompile and restore it with freegeee.i repeat,this is just a theory.
Another question,what method did you use to unlock bootloader?

Even with a samsung, if you'd screwed the partitions real good, you'd lose everything, even the backup.

You can try it, but most likely not.
You would need to decrypt the file, replace with your IMEI and encrypt it. copy it and it "would" work, theorically.
OR, you could call your provider and ask them if they can do it. Might not be worth the hassle!

Yes I can resolve sending the phone in service...But my wife told me "don't to do that""
For me will a victory if I rewrite my Imei because in the future i will change new rom... and want learn how to...
how I can enter in Diag Mode?
you're not sending it for waranty, the "waranty" was void when you changed the rom. If your provider gets to know that they will void it "officialy".
You may contact the service to know if they can rewrite an EMEI, and ask them how much they charge for it.
The FIRST thing you should do before installing a custom rom is a backup of the EFS partition:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2161611
or, if you have installed freeGee, you might already have a backup in the FreeGee folder in img format
If not, then you will need to open thoses .img, edit them with your IMEI and reflash them
Not that easy.i didn't find any tool to decompile those images into workable stuff.like i said,maybe you will find more help on irc channel.asking will not hurt

I proceed to download the file f180s20b, located on the xda page, and installed correctly.
Upon restart my phone was all perfect except:
It does not recognize the sim card
Does not display the IMEI (unknown), or the IMEI SV (unknown).

Did you back it up first? if so restore it, if not you might have to reflash the previous version.

Firstly, about your IMEI : just flash the KDZ file again (for your phone version, imean F180S)
Secondly, about your signal after convert from F180 to E975, do as below
Your phone has been changed the baseband.
So just flash baseband again.
See your baseband here :

Download the file as the link above, extract it. Copy the *.img file that base on your phone version (L,S,K) to your root
Running the file *.bat that base on your phone version (L,S,K)

Please help me.
I need a F180L 10q kdz or efs of this version. Bought an optimus g from Hong-Kong. Korean version (U+). I updated to hungarian 4.1.2. and no 3g or LTE. I found this method, but I don't have original ics rom to install it back. I think it will work with F180s10j_00.kdz.
The phone is the e975 international version, so the hardware must be good.

Don't flash korean modem on e975. You might brick your device.
What lte bands are used there?

You need your imei because it`s how a network carrier checks that you are using the sim card in that phone
Imei
Please tell me what to do. I have my imei (wrote it down before upgrade), but how can I create a backup of efs. I read about freegee, but - if I'm not mistaken - I need to make it work 3G/LTE, then make a backup of efs.
Please write me a tutorial what to do.

Dear Kimitza,
Looks like You are some kind of expert of this, and probably speak better english than me, but I'm still a human. Unfortunately not as smart as You. I asked for a help, and if I'm not mistaken this forum is for helping each other. You don't have to be rude, because You know something better than me. If You don't want to help me don't do it. Maybe You can't help me, maybe You don't know the solution for my problem.
I hope someone will be kind and help me out.
Best,
Peter

no my friend,i don't consider myself smarter than anyone.i never did, because it's all relative. i may know a litle more than you and somebody else may know more than me.it's just i'm sick of repeating the same things over and over,like a broken record.

True,this forum is for sharing and help. But you gotta help yourself and think first. "Hey,i'm about to do something that can brick my phone. How do i do it safely?Where do i find the solutions?" If you would ask BEFORE doing,i would be more than happy to provide all the knowledge i have. we all would. but i see more and more questions about repairing damages made by ignorance. Your problem would've not appear in the first place if you would've used this forum. Don't get me wrong, it's your money and your phone,you can do whatever you like/want with it.All i'm saying is don't complain here about the answer you get because you screw up.
Optimus g
Here is the whole story. Bought an optimus g (international verison), when I get it, the phone offered me an OTA upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2. I never thought that this will cause me any problem. Everything was normal and official, this is why I did not make any backup. This is my third phone from abroad and never had any problem like this. The problem appeard when I put the sim inside. No 3G/LTE. I did search everything, tried almost everything: rooted, unlocked bootloader, tried official ROM (KDZ), unofficial ROM, flashed baseband, modem. Did everthing exactly I read about it at xda forums. Nothing seems to be working. Looks like You are my last chance, so please help.....

The big question is where did you bought from. European E975 came with 4.1.2.
optimus g
Unfortunetely from Hong-Kong. Optimus G E975 (F180L was on the box). and came with 4.0.4.

Make up your mind already. E975 is not the same with F180L . Different devices my friend.
My next question is,do you have network signal? if you do, have you checked your carrier settings?meaning the APN?
hi,
i downloaded the "Baseband" for my F180l, because i cant get any network access with the E975 Firmware F EU/GER. The Baseband didnt change but i lost the IMEI, after flashing the E875F again i received back my IMEI but i dont get any connection at all.
APQ8064/MDM9x15M
before and after it was the same...
what shall i do?
Steps i followed:
First: Root, Enable USB Debugging, Download this file:https://www.dropbox.com/s/e8vses1vqza04l3/BaseBandF180L.rar
2. Copy this baseband.img to Internal Storage (/sdcard)
3. Run file flash_baseband.bat
4. Follow the guild.
5. Your phone will reboot and finish!
got the same baseband as before...
thanks
anybody?
this exact same problem led my F180s to a deadboot after trying many other hit-or-miss solutions. my find is a corrupt EFS file among other possibilities. did u back up your EFS files before? if not, see an expert tech for help.
you have one of those Korean versions right?

yes but i will return it back because it took too long for delivery. I bought an Optimus G Pro
Model: LG Optimus G Pro F240s
I was on a custom rom when I started getting no network so I followed the best method to get to stock by a user (using LG flash tool).
I was successful & got back to as stock as possible, Problem:
the IMEI is showing as unknown, only when SIM is inserted !
WCDMA hidden menu settings change & save when there is no sim but with sim inserted they do not change & IMEI is shown as unknown !
Please help.
I have searched a lot but no progress!
I read that if any of you give me the stock efs images for efs for a Optimus F240s then I can restore them back.

Ok , im a noob but i did what others said "impossible"
There was no logic in my method but i didnt gave up.
I used FlashTool.1.0.54 with a Brazilian carrier KDZ(my current Carrier) . - No sucess (i flashed a 989 kdz in my F240L, but i did that to try to recover modem and baseband data)
After that, as i had no sucess, i flashed the korean kdz ( F240L10v from the LGU carrier) but i did not wipe cashes and user data.
When i finished to flash the f240l my signal was back, but i got several crashes from the rom (i clicked "ok" more than 100 time XD ) but managed to enter system (i was kinda blind cos evething was in korean language) and perform a factory reset.
NOW EVETHING WORKS FINE, THANKS LORD !!!!
My advice: Dont give Up, try everything even if u tried it already...try again and again.
I wish you luck !!!!!

You have to be on download mode and your battery needs to be 100% fully charged, otherwise the update will not go thru. Good luck!:good:
Joining the pack here... Please help. Trying to download the Stock ROM for v10V right now. Phone came with 10Z originally or so I think. That's what comes up when I check the IMEI through browser anyway. Tried to put stock 10z and issue unfixed.
Edit:
Cannot download v10V... link from lg-firmware not working.
Anyone who has a copy of it?
Fixed it!!! Ahahahaha! :laugh:
Step 1: I installed Stock E980h Panama Firmware. Download it from lg-firmware
Step 2: Installed Stock Original F240L 10z Firmware.
Step 3: Jump, Roll and Jump again becuase it's working now and I dont know why. Ahahahaha!

What Brazilian fw did you use? what carrier?
Easy Breezee
this was also my prob 2hours ago. installed custom rom and a baseband that was linked to the rom. after flash i had bootloop, then restored my rom using cwm on the backup i made and it was successful but my imei has gone null.
so what i did was..
downloaded the right modem model from:
http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/Users/Anirudhks-OptimusGPro/Modem+Collection/ Thanks to anirudhks.
flash it on cwm.
the wula.
boom
profit.
I've got this situation with my LGOG E975: a week ago i turned it on and after like 20 seconds after STOCK ROM was running , it rebooted.Then I also noticed the IMEI had gone. I wasn't rooted and the bootloader was locked. I tried everything from hard reset to flashing stock kdz. The only solution to the reboots is to flash teenybin and then a custom rom. Although I have no service and no IMEI. It's like having a 32 gigs ipod, almost useless. Also warranty was voided because the phone was disassembled.
Reading around the internet seems a EFS related issue but I have no idea how to fix it
Whats your advice? Hardware or software fault?
PS Also I noticed that ,with the stock rom, it doesn't scan the memory at startup, like it used to do.
Any help/idea would be appreciated!

same problem here
Same problem here using stock rom and no root.
Phone reboot after a few seconds and no signal, no IMEI.
Is there a way to backup my data/photos in LG Recovery Mode ?
When the phone boots up I can see the files on pc but not enough time to save.

do you know where's your phone from?? I meet a lot optimus G from Korea with this kind of problem when owners tried to flash it with an international ROM (Korean versions use different ROM but you can flash it with international ROM with some CAUTIONS, or you lost your IMEI) look for an able-to-pull-out antena on top of it, next to heaphone jack. if there is one, that's Korean version.
I know one way to recover IMEI for those phones, may be it works for your case:
1. Find out what is your phone REAL version (E97x or F180L,F180K,F180S ...) because it can be changed after you flash new ROM.
2. FInd s.o with the exact version of your phone and beg for the IMEI back up from their phones with this tool
mediafire.com/download/iy0rhx8yv7lkvlb/IMEI_Backup_Restore.zip (cant post links)
3. Restore your phone with that IMEI with the same tool, your phone will have new IMEI and .... service (I hope so)
remember to turn on "USB debugging". the phone will restart after done (may be twice)
Good luck!!
P/S: use at your own risks

actually, you dont need IMEI to be the same, just the same kind of version (eg. International ~ E975, AT&T ~E973 ...). we call that "fake IMEI" in our place :lol:
This methods works 100% with korean version, and some of my friends confirm it works on international version, even the AT&T's or Canada's (E973,E970). the most important is to clarify your phone's version, if you did wrong version, you have to "fake baseband". and then everytime you flash a ROM you have to do the 2 fake
