Which rom ?Did you back up the /efs folder?

Are you sure it's changed? That looks like a valid IMEI to me. You also probably shouldn't post your IMEI. It's a good idea too keep it secret

can't read Sim Card / Unknown Network

about a 2 month ago my lgp500 become hard bricked. few days ago i repaird it through a mobile shop. Technician said to me that he make my pone alive but unable to restore IMEI number. So the phone is not working on network. When i checked mobile IMEI on about section it was 0000.
I took phone at home. about 2-3 month ago i took a NV2 backup through LGDMP, so i thought that i can able to restore it.
I was follow these steps:
1) Try to restore NV2 Backup. ( my imei shown on about section but still not network/sim support, Only show emergency mode)
2) Reset firmware to v20g with KDZ , then restore nv2 backup again. As well as i try to flash new baseband through LGDMP.
3) Reinstall firmware v20g with LGDMP, Restore Baseband & IMEI through LGDMP.
4) Reinstall firmware to v10E with KDZ, reinstall onld baseband & imei through LGDMP.
5) Try an unbranded IMEI which i found on google. Phone shows New IMEI but still not in working state.
6) Reinstall custom firmware (CM9/CM10) , but still no chance.
My nv2 backup file size is 179kb. i don't this so it's corrupt. but may be...
Now need suggestion and help from you guys.. :crying:
sorry for my English. :silly:
for IMEI type *#06# to see if it will display it, you have to request an NV backup from someone if someone will give it
or:
try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534704 , read your IMEI under battery and try to create NV with tool in link

As rr0yy stated, no one is going to give you their NV2 file as it contains information specific to their device like IMEI number, WIFI mac address, bluetooth mac address, etc... If you are having IMEI issues and you don't have your own NV2 backup, I'm afraid the service center or purchasing another device are your only options. Unfortunately the service center won't do any good if the device is out of warranty and/or you don't have proof of purchase ( receipt ).

[Q] Error while searching for networks[CM 10.1 Alpha-9]

Installed CM 10.1 alpha-9 from DDLF2 a week ago. Phone worked perfect for few days. While trying to call a friend, the screen went unresponsive for a few seconds & the network was gone & never returned. The sim is working in another phone. While searching available networks 'error while searching for networks' shows.
Phone Status:
Network: Unknown
Signal Strength: 0 dBm 99 asu
Mobile network type : Unknown:0
Service state: out of service
Mobile Network state: Disconnected
My phone number: Unknown
IMEI: Unknown
IMEI SV: Unknown
IP address: Unavailable
I have no efs backup or anything. I just backed up the device while on DDLF2 from the CWM menu & copied the files onto my pc. The files are in a folder named backup>2013-09-14.18.42.26 (around 373MB).
Files are:
1. cache.rfs.tar
2. data.rfs.tar
3. datadata.rfs.tar
4. nandroid.md5
5. system.rfs.tar
I guess its the IMEI problem. Please help guys.
As far as I know, nandroid backup does not back up EFS. Your best bet would be to do a full reflash with stock ROM.
Unfortunately, "unknown" IMEI is most likely a busted EFS, but give it a try, still. Lurk around the SD card, many roms create EFS backups, maybe you still got one somewhere

i have my efs backup folder but i couldn't recover it. Hope you can help me
Found a folder in the sd card named backup>efs (Size 5MB). 4 folders inside & 14 files. As I read in some other topics, the most important files are nv_data & nv_data.bin.md5 which are present in the folder. Is this anyhow useful. Please help guys, my phone is of no use now!
One more thing that I don't get is that how this problem came, as the phone was working ok for aroung 4-5 days after flashing CM 10.1 A9. May be this is a hardware problem. I don't understand.

Z3x box is a box needed to use samsung tools or sth like that. I'm at school atm search forum by typing 9 steps to recover your imei. It's in GS 2 general topic. And also my imei is blank if we can make it 049 or 000. But without any imei we can't restore it i think. 'cuz it didn't work for me..

If you can buy some credits for samsung SRS server's it says it takes 6 credits for imei repair. Maybe it can solve our problem. I don't have a credit card so i can't try it. If it works maybe i can buy too. What do you think?

If you can't restore the efs backup you made from the stock rom there is no help. Editing the IMEI is illegal and nothing can be done.

The only way to get it back is to have your IMEI restored and only the OEM can legally do it, if the backup doesnt work.

You stated in your post that you tried an EFS back up. IF you dont have one then your gonna have to send it in for repair. Things like this happen when you mess with the OS of your device.

There is no Idea. First off restoring someone else EFS folder is dumb. Of course it wont work as it doesnt match your device.
You are not gonna find an answer for this. Samsung will have to replace your motherboard and most likely charge you more then the device is worth.
If you are intent on keeping the device you have 2 options.
1. Flash a stock rom with Odin. If this doesnt work then (most likely wont)
2. Send it to samsung.
Those are your only options.
Now I would advise once you get things worked out, before you think about doing things like this again to understand what you are doing as the min you mod your device you kill any and all warranty on the device and very well could end up with a brick or unusable device.
