Hi, I don't know how but one day i was using my phone and it got stuck and turned off and its been a year now it never turned on. It is hard bricked i guess. It never surpasses the Samsung s4 mini logo. I can get into download mode and recovery mode. I have cwm recovery installed in it. I tried to install if i remember correctly 3 or 4 different stock roms but they don't work. I dont know where the problem is.. It used to work fine. I used to have cm12 on it and use it as a normal phone just without sim access. Thing is I dont know where it is from so I cant decide which firmware to install. On the back of the phone under the battery it says i9195xgsmh but i can't seem to find anything or any firmware related to it. I don't know what to do. Any help will be appreciated.
I made this post in the general forum but someone suggested that I should ask here too, I hope you guys can help me!

Remove the battery and look at the IMEI number. If you get the 7th and 8th number, you can tell the region(s) it is from. Have a look at this site. Match the number and try flashing a stock rom from there

So when you remove the battery, there is a Samsung sticker on the device(in the battery cavity), that has a barcode near the bottom? Just above and below that barcode there should be a S/N number and IMEI number. From what I can tell, every samsung phone has this.....

then unlock bootloader and flash some custom sense5 rom and hope your IMEI will be back
is that the only solution. i got the imei at the case from the phone. isnt any way to put the imei manualy?
if that not possible can you tell me in few words or linkd how can i unlock the bootloader and which rom is the purest to install. (most similar to the stock)
flash one of these stock roms via cwm or twrp:

MaximusHD or ARHD are close to stock you can restor nandroid backup with your main version and see if your IMEI is back. No way to write your IMEI manually
I have same problem..but do not have any luck yet

My Girlfriends M8 which was never modified in any way recently started to act very strange. First data and call reception was totally gone like a GSM brick and now the navigation and status bar have disappeared. A factary reset didn't fix either of the problems and now after every boot there are a few additional force closes. Warranty repair is of the table because the device was purchased in Germany but we live in Taiwan now. I was wondering if flashing a new software could help at least the navigation and status bar to come back but it doesn't seem to want to tell me the imei which is needed for the bootloader unlock.. However fast boot and stock recovery can be accessed without problem. Can anyone help me on how to proceed here?

Do fastboot getvar all, and post the output. Delete IMEI number (if it shows up there) and serial number, before posting the getvar output.
Can a custom ROM help? Maybe, maybe not.
You can also try the RUU, before modifying the phone. RUU for your version is listed on the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Okay i got fastboot up and running and i want to try to flash a ruu. I figured 401.10 is the way to go because that is the latest one i can find for this device but my version is 401.13 will that be a problem?

I didn't notice in your hboot photo, that you are version .13 (and getvar output I asked for would have helped).
You can try the RUU, but I think it will fail version check (can't run an RUU with lower version number). But its worth a try, since the version numbers are so close.
Trying to update my phone in hopes that its android P so I can turn on dark mode in the alarm app and not blind myself in the morning. LG's website shows there's a newer version of the software but my phone says "no updates available"? Is my only option to to it via USB or whats the deal?
Is your phone a real G710ULM or a G710PM cross flashed to ULM firmware?
Settings, System, About Phone, Hardware info - What is model number?
ULM still on Oreo. If you want Pie now, options are to cross flash to another G7 model or root phone and install LOS.

Hardware info says "LM-G710ULM"
Did you buy phone new or from third party? Who is phone service provider? Does phone show serial number under about phone or blank?

Got it 2nd hand from ebay.
Does the phone show serial number under settings? Does the phone pass safetynet CTS? My guess is it's a PM cross flashed to ULM.
I've got pie

Yea looks that way, IMEI lookup shows its a "PM" from Sprint. How should I proceed?
Hello everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (SM-G988U) from Verizon Wireless. I am not from the US, I got the phone from a guy who bought in the US.
I am currently in Romania using Vodafone SIM card (Idk if this is relevant but thought I should give as much info as possible).
The thing is, no dialer code works, *#06# for IMEI code, *#0*#, *#*#88#*#* and all the other ones. It either says invalid code or something like that or "UNKNOWN APPLICATION".
I am running original unrooted firmware Android 11 One UI 3.0 (G988USQU1CTL4).
Is there anything I can do to solve this? And is there a way to get rid of the Verizon stuff without rooting? (like changing CSC or something I don't know I'm not all that knowledgeable regarding this stuff, I just read the stuff posted on the forums)

Not sure if it will work. But try downloading the Google Phone Dialer and see if they work in that app.
I get the same errors with the Google Phone app too.
Codes won't work if the BL is unlocked or rooted.
Happened on my old S9
At least read the whole post before replying , I am running completely original unrooted software. Didn't touch a thing on it.
Didn't mean to make it sound passive aggressive, just frustrated with the whole thing.

perhaps the previous owner rooted the phone before.. try to enter download mode to see if it was rooted before.
I've tried everything, please help.. I factory reset a few times, used a VPN, turned on Find device and sync (except SMS and phone because it won't activate my SIM), USB debugging, OEM unlock are all on and it's still the same. Of course I've waited about two weeks... It's on MIUI 12.0.6.0 Global and won't check for updates (says can't connect to network) I'm pretty sure something about its IMEI or something is broken too but IDK how to fix it. I'd love to get some help please
How many hours did it tell you to wait for unlocking?
Are you 100% sure the drivers are installed correctly on your computer and the phone is detected correctly?
When you start MiUnlock, did you click in the top right corner and update the app to the latest version before requesting unlock?
Edit:
When I unlocked my phone, the Mi Account said that the sim wasn't activated but I could still send and receive SMS.
