See it really depends . Its a kind of glitch i think. Sometime while flashing IMEI goes to invalid . But it really depends on your luck or how you use your device. Rough used device will get invalid IMEI means if you keep on flashing things. Like it depends , device can also get bricked but thats on your luck... ie. how unlucky you are... not all device are bricked.

[Guide] IMEI Fix For Devices On Custom Rom.

Hey Guys,
Yep, I know there are a whole lot of threads for imei problem fix, but I've seen a lot of threads with solutions only working either for stock rom, or there is some random imei showing up on your device. This is a thread on fixing imei problem working for custom ROMs. Yes! . I have tried this AOSP Extended and Resurrection Remix OS 5.8.3 both by mohancm and I'm pretty sure it will work on any custom ROM. This fix is based on partitions backup from your stock rom, so there will be no issues.
This solution was given by Senior Member @KaMyKaSii, so all thanks to him! Lets get started!
Requirements:
1) Your device ( Obviously )
2) Stock ROM Marshmallow.
3) Rooted Device
4) Maui Meta 3G/ SN Write Tool (Optional)
Procedure:
1) If you are on Custom Rom, flash marshmallow stock ROM (Search the forums, there a lot of threads), using SP Flash Tools.
2) After going to stock rom, next step is unlocking bootloader, there are many threads on doing this, but I'll sum it up here if you
want:
i) Go to Developer Settings>OEM Unlocking. Enable the option. Also enable USB Debugging Mode.
ii) Connect to a computer and open adb on it. Check if the device is connected using the command
Code:
adb devices
iii) now use the command
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
In fastboot use this command to unlock bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Do as it says and reboot.
iv) Now again after rebooting go to bootloader and flash TWRP.
3) Root your device by flashing MagiskSU or SuperSU.
4) Now, download and install FX File Explorer from play store, Open it and enable Root Access from Settings>Add-Ons And
Themes in file explorer.
5) Now go back and open System (Root) folder in file explorer.
Note: If you haven't already restored, restore your imei, bluetooth address and serial number using Maui Meta or SN Write Tool.
6) In system root, grant Root permissions, and go to dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name folder.
7) In that folder, copy the files mentioned below:
Code:
expdb
nvdata
nvram
proinfo
protect1
protect2
secro
8) Copy these files in some place where it is safe ( I have copied it to Internal Storage in a folder named PartitionsBackup)..
9) Next, go back to root folder again, and open data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI and copy the MP0B_001 file to internal storage. Do Not copy this file in the same place as the previous files, but remember where you have copied this file.
These are all the partitions that store the device's IMEI .
10) After copying everything mentioned, Reboot to recovery and flash the desired Custom Rom.
11) Make sure the rom is rooted, and again install FX File Explorer from play store, enable root access as above.
Do Not Forget To Backup Everything Before Doing Anything!
12) Now select the files that you have copied in internal storage (Assuming PartitionsBackup). And copy those files. ( Note: Do Not Copy the MP0B_001 file!)
13) Now open root folder, go to dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name folder and paste all the files you have copied, and if asked select Merge/Overwrite files.
14) Reboot.
15) Now go back to internal storage, copy the MP0B_001 file where you have saved it. Go back to root folder and open data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI and copy the file, select Merge/Overwrite. Now long press the file and select Security, update permissions as Read, Write for both root and radio. Dis-select everything else.
16) Reboot aand Done! Voila ! You should get back the IMEI for your device :victory:
I know its a long post, but it works for Custom ROMs.!
Hope it helps!
Hit Thanks If you feel it works! :highfive:

can you please help me on step 13 because every time i reboot the device the by-name folder contents reset to the original value. my by-name folder backup is 72 mb while when i look in the folder after i reboot it is only 170 bytes
---------- Post added at 06:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 AM ----------
also when i wait for a while after rebooting for like 4-6 hours when i looked at my baseband and imei it is not unknown anymore
and my sim is restored but when i reboot again the baseband value and imei is set back to unknown. this happened even before im not following your solution. can it be a hardware issue? would really appreciate any help thx

I didn't get you. Do not backup the whole by-name folder. Just copy the files mentioned above. And when you go into the custom ROM, just restore the files copied in the same by-name folder.
No. It might not be a hardware problem.

13) Now open root folder, go to dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name folder and paste all the files you have copied, and if asked select Merge/Overwrite files.
14) Reboot.
15) Now go back to internal storage, copy the MP0B_001 file where you have saved it. Go back to root folder and open data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI and copy the file, select Merge/Overwrite. Now long press the file and select Security, update permissions as Read, Write for both root and radio. Dis-select everything else.
16) Reboot aand Done! Voila ! You should get back the IMEI for your device :victory:
I know its a long post, but it works for Custom ROMs.!
Hope it helps!
Hit Thanks If you feel it works! :highfive:

Can anyone help me in restoring IMEI in stock ROM?
While flashing using SN writer or maui meta tool it says "Have been in meta mode. Long press power button to normal reboot". After that nothing. It boots back and I still see the INVALID IMEI message.

Hey Guys,
Yep, I know there are a whole lot of threads for imei problem fix, but I've seen a lot of threads with solutions only working either for stock rom, or there is some random imei showing up on your device. This is a thread on fixing imei problem working for custom ROMs. Yes! . I have tried this AOSP Extended and Resurrection Remix OS 5.8.3 both by mohancm and I'm pretty sure it will work on any custom ROM. This fix is based on partitions backup from your stock rom, so there will be no issues.
This solution was given by Senior Member @KaMyKaSii, so all thanks to him! Lets get started!
Requirements:
1) Your device ( Obviously )
2) Stock ROM Marshmallow.
3) Rooted Device
4) Maui Meta 3G/ SN Write Tool (Optional)
Procedure:
1) If you are on Custom Rom, flash marshmallow stock ROM (Search the forums, there a lot of threads), using SP Flash Tools.
2) After going to stock rom, next step is unlocking bootloader, there are many threads on doing this, but I'll sum it up here if you
want:
i) Go to Developer Settings>OEM Unlocking. Enable the option. Also enable USB Debugging Mode.
ii) Connect to a computer and open adb on it. Check if the device is connected using the command
iii) now use the command
In fastboot use this command to unlock bootloader Do as it says and reboot.
iv) Now again after rebooting go to bootloader and flash TWRP.
3) Root your device by flashing MagiskSU or SuperSU.
4) Now, download and install FX File Explorer from play store, Open it and enable Root Access from Settings>Add-Ons And
Themes in file explorer.
5) Now go back and open System (Root) folder in file explorer.
Note: If you haven't already restored, restore your imei, bluetooth address and serial number using Maui Meta or SN Write Tool.
6) In system root, grant Root permissions, and go to dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name folder.
7) In that folder, copy the files mentioned below:

SN write tool can be a little complicated to do. I personally prefer Maui Meta 3G. You can search for guides on SN write tool. There are many....

Do you have all drivers installed correctly? ADB, VCOM, USB Drivers?
Also, That message screen is Meta Mode. From that screen only you can do the IMEI process.
Note: This Only works for stock rom. Use this guide.

For custom Roms, use my guide.

So lets fix it up !
Required stuffs !
Windows PC (7/8/8.1/10)
Usb Cable
Few tools
Drivers
Your device, ofc !
Download Section !​
1. Scatter files !
2. MauiMETA
3. Temoprary IMEI fix.zip​
Now before we start doing anything make sure you download everything from the download section. Also, make sure your device is having TWRP installed.
Process !​
Now most of you must have thought hey Max where is NVRAM fix? There was nothing about NVRAM in title Well chill down I will target NVRAM NOW !! So let us begin! Now as you have downloaded entire scatter files so NVRAM needs entire scatter files. "Woosh! Thank god it was useful somehow" most of you must have thought Hehehe Well one more thing if you are using permanent NVRAM fix then use it before you flash IMEI or else you lose it again if you fix NVRAM after IMEI. However, a temporary fix can be flashed later on.
* Now navigate to the firmware folder
* Look for scatter file open it in notepad or notepad ++
* There look for this line, "partition_name: NVRAM"
* There you will also notice, "s_download: false"
* Just change it to, "s_download: true"
* Save and exit!
* Open Sp flash tools and load scatter file(Remember a thing, you will have to use an older version of SP Flash Tools)
* You will see checkbox of NVRAM just choose it and keep rest options unchecked!
* Flash into your device and all set!
NVRAM IS FIXED PERMANENTLY :good:
But now for those who are lazy doing this, there is a temporary zip file which you can flash and NVRAM problem will be fixed for a limited time to do so just go to download section and download temporary fix zip file and flash it into TWRP (Yes, that's why we needed TWRP):angel:
Now before we start doing anything make sure you download everything from the download section. Also, make sure your device is having TWRP installed. (YES AGAIN MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING)
• After that, run Maui META 3G
• Use USB COM
• From Options menu, select “Connect smartphone in meta mode”.
• Press Reconnect and connect the phone in the switched off state.
• Wait for a minute. Your Device automatically boots into meta mode. The blinking led will become yellow and you can see "connected with target"
• Now from the drop-down menu select “IMEI download”. Click ok till you see IMEI download box.
• Click Change NVRAM Database FIle and browse to “MT6753 DB” folder and select the following file.
File\MT6753\
BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6753_S00_K5_ROW_LWG_V56_ 1_lwg_n (BPLGU modem file for mt6753, do a double check as the name might change with firmware versions).
[Well I have not extracted this file yet from stock ROM scatter files. However, I have given you the download link of entire stock ROM look the file there itself !]
• Click ok on any warning.
• Leave IMEI Increasemnt 0.
• Write first 14 digits of your IMEI in IMEI box and last 15th digits will go in checksum(should be entered automatically). Eg:- if IMEI is 123456789123456, write 12345678912345 in IMEI and 6 in the checksum. Do same for Sim_2
[Now most of you must be wondering where is my IMEI. I don't remember it and also it's not there in the list. Don't worry pull your back cover and you will see IMEI sticker there just type the same IMEI]
• Press Download To Flash. You will see Download IMEI flash successfully. Now close the box (or alt+f4 or close from task manager if stuck).
• Restart the phone
• Open Dialer and type *#06# and you will get your valid IMEI number.
* Well if you saw the same IMEI then you are done !!! :good:

Messed With IMEI while Enjoying flashing?

IMEI number is a personal identifier and if gets corrupted you can loose working of SIM in those phone.
Why would it happen?
1. Probably you went High and cause your modem to get corrupted?
2. Or the Old way deleted/removed/ate away NV_RAM file of EFS partition
I CAN'T EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH BUT ALWAYS KEEP BACKUP OF YOUR EFS PARTITION​What should I do in case my mobile gets no sim card status?
+>Try changing ROM in case there is no IMEI in the About Phone section.
If problem persist
+> Install your modem again
Get NON-HLOS.bin file its located in firmware released by ASUS on our device, Unzip the firmware and then goto folder 'firmware' in that you can find NON-HLOS.bin​
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.BIN

Advance user can do this TWRP, In case anyone need that ask me ? Otherwise I think this is best way to go for it? easy and simple
Reboot your phone.
it works? YESS? YAAAAAAY
no? WHAAAAAT? Congratulations messed up with IMEI
Let's fix it.
You need
1. Proper functioning and working brain
2. Your IMEI number for both SIM
3. A windows computer(I searched a lot for Linux alternative but its not available that's sad)
4. Download qcn file which will be prototype ( Get it from another post in this segment by @Vimal Vinz)
5. Download and install QPST from https://www.qpstflash.com/downloads/QPST_2.7.460.zip
unzip password => qpstflash.com
6. A hexadecimal editor tool ( in Linux use Ghex if you use GNOME , for Windows go for HexWorkshop )
7. Qualcomm Driver from here https://androidfilebox.com/tool/qualcomm-qdloader-hs-usb-driver-32-bit-64-bit/
8. Can't Resist to mention but please make sure that you have adb installed
9. Have rooted phone.
UPCOMING STEPS CAN LEAD YOU TO COMMIT CRIME AGAINST STATE IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW THEM PROPERLY BECAUSE CHANGING IMEI TO SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT YOU WERE ALLOTTED CAN LEAD YOU IN PRISON AND I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF YOUR ACTION​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now what you need to do is:
1. goto .......Here.......... enter your IMEI and copy and paste the generated NV_RAM(hex) in some text editor FOR BOTH SIM
2. Open the "qcn" file in the prototype I gave in step 3 above in your favorite HEX editor
I wonder If I should say it again but please don't make mistake here otherwise you are a criminal *remembers Briteny Spears*​ save the file to a location.
3. Change build.prop file in your mobile located in /system
use any editor (try ES explorer maybe?) Find "ro.build.selinux " and set it value to "0"
reboot!!!!!!!
4. when phone opens up goto adb shell
su​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. Open Device manager and now you can see a Qualcomm Device
if now reinstall the Qualcomm Driver
6. Open QPST
Goto Ports Tab in QPST
If you can't see any port you can add it clicking on add new port located at left corner
After you can see ports goto "Start Client" menu in menu bar and in that select "Software Download"
Select port and qcn file (which you edited before ) and click on start button to start flashing !
And at last reboot your phone and the problem is SOLVED !
