STILL NOOO HELP
Please me, i have lost my IMEI saying NULL / NULL and im getting not registered on error. I have not backed up ESF folder as well.
Struggling from last 5 days to fix it up. some how i got Modem_N7100XXDMG1 and flashed. After that i have got some fake IMEI.
Tried flashing STOCK ROM 4.4.2, but still no luck.
Read on some forum that MODEM of 4.1.2 or J.B 4.3 resolves this issue but when i try to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 via ODIN it straight away shows FAILS in RED
IM using Note N7100 K.K.4.4.2
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME.
If you have no backup and the stock ROM did not work, they you are pretty much out of luck. I had a backup but the IMEI didn't come back until I flashed a different modem. I used modem_XXDME4.
If you know what your IMEI number was, then there are ways to write that number directly into the phone. Need to send the phone to someone that has the hardware though. You can buy it yourself but it costs about the same as a motherboard replacement. Youtube "N7100 Android 4 3 imei repair z3x" to see what I'm talking about.
If you don't know the number, don't have a backup, then you'll have to change the motherboard.
You can find your IMEI number on the back of your phone though.. Pull out the battery, it's printed above your device's serial number.
I have my IMEI, i just wanted the solution through software can i change my IMEI or i have to go service center that would cost about Rs. 5000 minimum.
modem_XXDME4 is S3 modem, how can i flash it on note 2 N7100.
PLEASE HELP
@dineshdotcom2000 have you tried different modem? I had the same problem like yours and flashing my region's modem didn't solve the problem. I flashed European modem - modem_XXDME4 - and the dummy IMEI changed back to the original. Maybe you should give it a try.
Here is the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/5mrtz2c6s29ibxt/modem_XXDME4__.zip
I flashed the exact same file on my device and it worked. Good luck :good:

I have already used this modem. Right now i have some fake imei with "004999010640000/1 i want to replace this IMEI with my original imei on Note 2 N7100.
Any way to do it???
Please help
Find a service in india that has a z3x box. They can write the IMEI directly without swapping the motherboard.
just search, a few days ago there was the same problem solved probably in Q&A thread

Hello,
i have the note 2 lte from my friend. He tried to root but i don't know what he did. He says that he flashed a "bootloader" but it was for the s3. I think i took the auto-root but flashed it in the "bootloader" and not "pda" in Odin.
The phone didn't boot.
I flashed a complete stock rom. Now it boots but IMEI is unknown and no basisband information. I made a first EFS backup here. I tried to flash a modem but it didn't help.
After several tries i get the "hidden menu" with EFS Professional. Now the NVTool works. I can read the IMEI over it. In the phone is the right IMEI so i don't need an injection.
Restore the EFS with my backup above don't help. I tried to make a factory default with Kies but it didn't help.
What is wrong? What can I do? Maybe the partition table is corrupted and so it has no baseband firmware? Why doesn't it show his IMEI when the NVTool (EFS Professional) can read it?
Thanks for your help and sorry about my bad english.

No, because my friend flashed "something" in the bootloader and bricked the phone. He gave me the phone.
I flashed a stock firmware over Odin, the phone boots and at this time it shows no baseband version and no imei in the settings menu.
I made an EFS backup but it was (maybe) already corrupted. I flashed older stock roms, modems only and tried the factory reset in Kies, nothing helped.
The NVTools in EFS Professional 2.0.35 shows me a correct imei number!

@Bajanman sorry but that guide is useless for the LTE Note 2 variants. Look for guides from the LTE Note 2 or the North American SGS3 as your main starting points to try and solve this. (My T889V LTE guide has some links to those.)
One method I'd like to hear reports about is the reboot nvrestore one, I've seen it discussed mostly on a Verizon SGS3 thread, but nothing IMHO says it wouldn't be relevant for the HSPA/LTE versions either.
Edit: The EFS and other related partitions are of a significantly different layout between the dual-core SGS3 and the LTE Note 2 or GT-I9305. adb reboot nvrestore doesn't seem to do anything on our devices.
Good luck,
Darkshado
hey i didn't find anything...i've heard that there's some custom roms that contains EFs backup that can solve my problem is this true ? if so can anybody give me a link for one of those roms ? thank you
Try to flash with odin the stock rom that you got your note 2 with. It happened to me once where i flashed something and lost my imei. I didnt backup or anything. After i flashed the stock and unrooted my phone my imei reappeared and my phone worked again. BTW it was a att note 2. I found the rom somewhere at this forum. No rom contain you Efs i think(could be wrong) but each phone has it own imei.

Just an FYI this is the wrong section, it should be posted in Help & Troubleshooting.
But anyways check these posts out, I had lost my EFS and NV files and following that helped get everything running again.

You didn't say how, or what you were doing when you lost them but if you were trying some of the 4.4 ROMs it will appear that way on some phones, mine being one. Download a stock ROM and flash it after wiping all, don't have to wipe external SD. Or if you still have one of the ROMs installed pm me and i will walk you through getting it going. If it's unrelated to flashing, follow the advice given.
i flashed the egypt tom to my grand after that the IMEI number is zeros and i cant mack calls or sms or anything
plzzzzzz help
the solution my friend is having somewhere saved in a backup the EFS folder, but you NEED TO find some tutorial on how to get that file or the folder as you have damaged IMEI The IMEI is in that folder, EFS ... system that is ... but I can not help and forgive my English

This basically means you have corrupted the EFS partition of your phone. This can only be fixed in two ways:
1. Like @johntheredimid mentioned, you need to restore the backup (if you took a backup) of your EFS partition before it was corrupted. The method for restore can be found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2420902
2. If you didn't take a backup, you need to take your phone to a service center and ask them to fix it for you. Would probably have to have your board replaced. So you should install your country's firmware and unroot properly before taking it there. Unrooting methods can be found in the general section.
Looks like this problem is widespread

so u flashed older firmwares via Odin.... to get back IMEI :good:
will u please tell which firmware version you have installed for android 4.1.2
as there are many firmwares available .....or else please provide a sammobile link
Hey guys soo i rooted, then got a recover but forgot to backup and then i did advanced wipe where i deleted everything. I then got a custom rom and everything worked fine until I realised baseband was unknown and imei was nowhere to be found. I then went back to stock firmware via sammobile. Baseband is back but imei is now 00499.... I've looked for hours and can't seem to find a way to get it back. Ia there anyone who can help? Perhaps a software to rewrite imei? Any help is much appreciated guys
EDIT: i can get my hands on another note 2, can i simply copy the efs folder and replace it into my note 2?
