IMEI 0 - What happened to me, share yours and let's find a solution.

I decided to write a new topic on this matter because there are still a lot of people like me with this problem.
My IMEI is shown as 0.
I've bought my phone at FastShop a non-carrier retailer. It is a XT1635-02 RETBR Dual-Sim.
On the process of loosing my IMEI, I was trying to get rid of the root I've installed before. I flashed a Cyanogen, got some problems with mobile data and decided to flash back to stock. When flashing back to stock I wanted a clean install, so I erased everything (EFS partition and every other tickable option) with the Chinese TWRP, the process gave me an error but I think it corrupted the data on EFS. (On the process of trying to fix this I've learned a lot of things I didn't knew and now I realize the kind of mistake I made...)
On "fastboot getvar imei" I can see my correct IMEI.
But dialing *#*#4636#*#* on phone info my IMEI is 0, also on Config>About both IMEI shown 0.
I've tried flashing the full stock ROM many times, even tried flashing different ROMS like LATAM, IUSMXLA, and others. Now I'm with the correct ROM running (RETBR).
I know that there are many people suffering from the same problem anything that could fix that anyway I would try.

I think you lost your IMEI forever.
DO NOT USE Chinese TWRP.

So basically all these reports of people getting their imei being 0 is them actually just wiping efs out of carelessness, got it. Not to be a jack*** but seriously...I always double check what I'm erasing. There's no recoveries, you've erased a unique identifier to the hardware. The manufacturer doesn't keep track of this.

That's my impression. I haven't seen anyone report categorically that they lost imei but absolutely did not wipe efs.

I think that when a signed firmware be available to download and install, the MZP will be able to regenerate the IMEI. Snapdragon have the capabilities to do it, but with an untrusted firmware, must "hide" it.

It is easy to get the IMEI back. Just restore the backup you did before wipe. Noone except you has the data on efs partition.

This would require that people don't jump the gun and flash/wipe before making a backup.
A problem that shouldn't exist, but does.

I think you're SOL, dude.

SUMMARY
1. Reflashed back to stock Marshmallow
2. Sideloaded Nougat OTA right after (that is before booting into the freshly restored system)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My IMEI became zero after trying to implement on Lineage OS a dual SIM mod originally intended for the stock ROM. "fastboot getvar imei" also displayed my correct IMEI. I eventually solved the issue purely out of trial by flashing the full stock (Marshmallow), and the nougat OTA right after that, as follows:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0 (repeat up to 10)
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot recovery
*recovery > adb sideload*
adb sideload nougat_ota.zip
WARNING
For downgrading, skip:
********************************
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
*******************************************
Proceeding otherwise will brick the device.

Just to clarify, I didn't made any backup before wiping my EFS.
I'm not used to go wiping everything, but I've already used the wipe function of the TWRP ticking all buttons and nothing was messed up.
Later I found that the Chinese TWRP give us the option to wipe our EFS.
I'm not blaming anyone but myself, I'm not that careless most of the times, I didn't had much knowledge as I do have now after all I've read and tried.
I have seen trough last months many people with problems on their IMEI, some problems was solved (flashing the ROM again), but the ones that continues looking for a solution probably have the same backstory as me.

I'll surely try that since you had the same problem and fixed, I have nothing to loose.
But I already flashed the stock ROM and updated to Nougat, but since I didn't actually sideloaded it I'll try again when I get home.

I m cool with it
as long as phone function is working
no data, coz data plan not activate

Welcome to the club. I wiped my /efs, lost my IMEI and had to pay £120 for a motherboard replacement. Now I've got a backup for my /efs partition, and never use the Chinese TWRP, but I learned an expensive lesson.

How did you back it up? With that chinese twrp?

yeah. that was the only time i used it.

I was running my phone as a gaming tablet since I've lost my IMEI, connecting only trough wi-fi. I was running android MM 6.0.1 with december patch.
I've tried flashing Stock ROM RETBR version MPSN24.104-44-7, but it was not allowing me to install the OTAs giving an error by the end of the procedure.
I cleaned the system again and flashed the Stock ROM RETBR version MPSN24.104-44-10 and was able to sideload all the OTAs without any error.
Now my MZP is on Nougat latest available version but my problem was no fixed as I tought.
I really don't think I or the other ones that lost their IMEI like me (wiping EFS without having a backup) will be able to restore our lost IMEI.
I'm giving one last try, I'll buy a SIM from a brazilian carrier that doesn't seems to block IMEI, I don't know if this only apply for blacklisted IMEI's, but I'll try it with my IMEI 0.
The said carrier is "Oi".

I think you can pay Lenovo to replace the motherboard. You're probably better off doing that IMO.

The only problem is that the replacement of the motherboard cost almost the same as a brand new phone here on Brazil.

I thought I'd bricked mine. Rooted, then attempted to reflash back to stock, and had IMEI 0. Flashed CM and still IMEI 0. Did not take a backup of anything because I've been rooting around inside Androids since 2009 and never managed to fully brick a device.
I got it back by following these instructions. It works. I'm using it right now. All may not be lost.
Critically: some things need fastboot, and some things need mfastboot. Also, the order of re-flashing matters. Read the thread.

[SOLVED] Need help! Lost IMEI and signal

Hi People, I'm a Moto G5 (XT1676) user. After unlocking bootloader, rooting, flashing ROMs, etc. I "broke" my phone and now mi IMEIs are 0 and lost my phone signal.
I've been reading posts of older versions (Moto G1, G3) that people seem to fix this problem by flashing oher phone's back up of fsc, hob and dhob partitions. The problem is that in my Moto G5 only fsc partition appears.
I'm not expert and don't understand too much , I'm just asking for your help please, my phone turned into a tablet .
Do anyone of you guys know what partition do I have to fix in this phone?
Can you upload a back up of those partitions for me please?
Flashing those partitions on other versions of the phone seem to fix signal problem leaving IMEI = 0, I just need my signal back.
Something that I don't know if is relevant is that when I messed up flashing things, reading posts around internet I used some commands that I think modified "persist" and "misc" partitions.
Can anyone upload those just in case too?
Sorry if something is wrong, english is not my native language.
Please help me!
EDIT!!:
I've managed to revive my phone restoring someone's persist backup from twrp, "Backup & Restore partitions" doesn't work. The file I used to fix this problem is in this link: https://mega.nz/#!Yd82hSZZ!vdmbqAG0bQhNyR5g95KOrZjVvBw2QDrirpOwhD96gPc
The only file i needed was the persist backup in that .rar
It's no my partition, I've found it around internet, searching everywhere, but it worked.
Thanks for all the people that tried to help me!
IMEI stayed 0 but my mobile signal is back!!
How to restore that partition?:
1-Install TWRP.
2-Go into Backup and make a backup of any partition there. This will create a partition folder inside TWRP folder.
3-Copy the persist backup I've shared into that backup folder.
4-Boot into twrp, restore and select persist.
5-Restore.
6-Flash stock rom again for your device.
I hope that this help anyone in the same situation. This works for Moto G5 Plus too from what I've been reading.
It would be nice if people comment their results so we can help others.
Attention!: This doesn't fix IMEI, it stays 0 but mobile signal is back.
Good Luck and thanks!

flash stock rom via fastboot
never play around with partitions unless you know what you are doing - simply typing in commands without knowing their meaning will likely muck up your device
find your stock rom firmware via the power of google
Open a command/terminal prompt where you have fastboot (if you have added fastboot to the environmental settings you can run it from any location)
The commands you will likely need are
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk4
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
I have included fastboot in the link below - You will also need to download and install the moto usb drivers if you have not already done so

I've already tried flashing stock rom but the problem is still there, I've also tried some custom roms too without success.
I know is my fault, I touched where I didn't have to.
I don't know what else to try, I think flashing other's back up partitions is my last shot.
I don't know if you are a Moto G5 user, but if you are, can you share those partitions to me?
Thanks for your reply.

Your gonna need an EFS / QCN backup. Do you know how to set the modem to diagnostic mode?

From what I've been reading Moto G doesn't have a EFS partition, I've found in other forums that Moto G4 series have that data in "Persist" partition, and that partition is the one i've been touching..
That's why I'm asking if someone can backup that partition and share to me.
There is an app that does the job "Partitions Backup & Restore", I think you need root to use it.
I need that Persist backup just to try fix my phone, if you have Moto G5, can you help me with that?
Yes I know how to set it into diagnostic mode. (I've been trying apps and programs that in that mode fix qualcomm devices without success).
Thanks for your reply!

Can someone please help me with a "persist" partition backup please? I really need help.

Hi Jerito. Sorry to take a few days to reply to your PM. Been away.
Not sure i can help with this one as am not knowledgeable about copying particular partitions.
About the most comprehensive rebuild i have ever done was what i posted about doing it file by file and if i was in your situation, well, thats what i'd try.
Can you somehow extract the partition you are after out of a ROM??

I'll do you a qcn backup, wait till early hours of Monday morning. I'm curious cause i have the same issue with my lenovo P2, no persist partition, but I think the persist partition is created from the fsg partition

No problem, the best way I've found of doing a back up of that partition is through the app I've mentioned "Partition Backup and Restore", I will watch your post!

Question About IMEI and Reflashing Stock ROM

I have an xt1710-01 which I am trying to return to stock ROM after trying out Lineage. Did not create a backup of EFS partition because I am an idiot. On Lineage, my IMEI appears just fine and I get cell service, though it isn't super great if I'm being honest. When I attempt to reflash stock, my IMEI shows as 0. Is it possible for me to still return my phone to stock ROM? I have tried manual fastboot method as well as a script called RSD Lite to no avail.

Yes and no. I was able to get a backup of the EFS partition from the LineageOS 15.1 ROM, which does restore cell service. However, it does not provide 4G LTE. I can get LTE on LineageOS, but when I reflash stock and then restore the EFS partition, it only gets me 3G connectivity. So far, the only way that I have been able to get LTE is to flash LineageOS, then run this:
Code:
fastboot erase modemst1 && fastboot erase modemst2
Apparently, those are cache files for something that has an effect on connectivity, though I don't know specifically what. Unfortunately, I must remain on LineageOS in order to keep the LTE. If I try erasing the modem caches on stock, it wipes all connectivity and returns me to IMEI 0. Downsides to this are bluetooth calls don't work at all, GPS navigation doesn't work, absolutely no torch (even with a third party app) and battery life is poo.
I am still looking in to this, including compiling my own ROM from source. Really, this whole ordeal has taught me two very important things:
1) Always make a complete backup of everything.2) Don't buy a phone that has no developer support on XDA. Honestly, this is the biggest one right here. Its revolting how little support there is for this device.I will update this thread as I get new information on potential fixes.

Thank you compostkicker ..would apprentice if you post the solution if you find one..I am also going through a ditto condition

I'm facing the same here. My problems started after the "erase modemst" command. After that I never was able to use my LTE connection again. I was able to use at least a H+ connection after I flashed a stock rom WITHOUT wiping nor formating data from a Lineage install. But, still no LTE. =/
I'm afraid this is caused by wrong modem driver w/ the downloaded stock rom. Don't know if there's a different driver for the Brazillian device.

YEEEEEEESSS I FIXED IT!!! HAHAHAHAHA
I followed what you said installing Lineage OS and did the "erase modemst" command. After that, I formated data using TWRP and flashed a stock rom but I skipped "erase modemst" command. And now my LTE is working on the stock rom. OMG!!!! \o/
So...
1. Flash Lineage OS 15.1
2. Restart in Bootloader and run the fastboot code [fastboot erase modemst1 && fastboot erase modemst2]
3. Restart the system.
4. Restart and use TWRP to FORMAT data.
5. Flash the stock rom using Fastboot and the following commands:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I would like to pass from ZUI (on xt1710-08) to a retail one without flashing Lineage before. So, if the problem is about modem i should not erase them, so I would leave those present on the initial version unchanged

So, my situation is : signal is ok lte\4g bit IMEI is 0. I think i understand i must flash stock lineage rom with this commands, then backup efs (i've already had It), so flash stock nougat and restore efs and i should have IMEI. Is It correct?

I can't guarantee you can fix it using my step-by-step because I did it for the XT1710-07 model. Maybe you'll have to adapt the solution to yours.

I fixed it by flashing the original -08's Oreo ROM (Chinese ROM) and then reflashing Pie without doing the "erase modemst1.." steps.

persist.img

Hi all op3 users,
Is there any twrp which supports persist partition ? So we could flash persist.img from stock rom to fix some problems with sensors for example .
We can flash persist.img in fastboot mode
fastboot erase persist
fastboot flash persist persist.img
fastboot reboot
But we have only ota.zip . Were can we find full roms for OnePlus 3 ? I mean roms which you can install with qpst/qfil or with msmdownloadtool

What i have learnt that you can flash persist.img in fasboot mode if your android version is 6.0 with unlocked bootloader and root access..
I was facing same issue and was getting "FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)" but after flashing 6.0, i was able to erase and flash persist fastboot mode.

if you ever played with your persist, its not fixing those persist who flashed other device persist to gain IMEI and VoLTE, safe for those who never played with their persist and for those who are having baseband with ending with capital R. Direct flashing via fastboot ending with no signals and also not imei if dont skip erase modemst1
erase modemst2.
Guide for those who are not on their own persist but with another persist able to use Signals with volte and using any custom or nougat or twrp rom
first take backup of your current working efs and persist on sd card or otg
Thn flash above rom via fastboot, dont skip anything, reboot system thn again go in fastboot menu
Flash twrp, thn in twrp only flash only FIRMWARE from SOAK Test 1 Aroma by @NZedPred ( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903990826 ), Thanks @NZedPred for his great work, now restore your efs and persist, roboot system.
If you want to lock bootloader thn follow these commands in fastboot
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem lock
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot oem lock
All of these worked for me as I was also not on my own persist.
everything working fine CAMERA, VOLTE, WIFI, FINGERPRINT, locked bootloader and unlocked also again with my key tht provided by moto, battery also charging faster, battery backup is also good.

Hey, will this work for hard bricked users? I've been using twrp flashable nougat stock ROMs since last year! Can't get back to full stock so!

For those who played with their persist, there are IMEI but no network after restoring EFS and Persist backup with TWRP, so be careful.

Bro you need to avoid this to flash, right now there is not any solution for those who are not on their persist, you will end up with no signals. So wait, I am still working on it.

After upgrading to oreo, download the Oreo flashable zip (Aroma) of SOAK1 and install only the firmware. And restore your efs after this step.
My phone is working perfectly with this, no network issues.

There are also many hidden issues after this method, wifi is getting slow while Bluetooth is active, if Bluetooth inactive thn also there are frequent wifi disconnection. Fingerprint also getting so slow while screen is off, I already tested it.

These commands are not responsible for hard bricks, may be there are another reason for hard bricks.

Asking again...
Will this work for hard bricked users? I've been using twrp flashable nougat stock ROMs since last year! Can't get back to full stock so!

First post your fastboot getvar here, then tell me what is the condition of your persist, imei, volte etc. Also from fatboot menu take a pic and post them also, and describe how you recovered your hard bricked device, then we can explain you. Thanks.
