First of all, rtfm before using Google devices.
Search for external antennas on ebay in case you have flashed /removed baseband/radio side of your rom. Be careful that you are exactly searching antenna for your Nexus S, not for any other devices.
Last thing i would advice is, rtfm...
i ll never been a douchebag!
i reckon i should flash the radio suc as xxkk6 or like that, hovewer i have no idea how to do that, would anyone help me please ?
I work out this crappy problem!
Thanks dear developers:
we did this problem with dear fanno,i didnt search any external antenna from ebay but he gave me a some special software and we did it, u can tell us if u have same problem about ur baseband or imei !!
Thank you MR.fanno !!
is anybody need help? tell me !!! i am the junior developer
Unfortunately my nexus s turned into nexus ass !!!! However thanks for your helps, u r so hospitable !!!
Hi.
I recently flashed the iNfinity HD V2 rom on my Blu Life Play.
Since then I have not been able to get my sim to be recognize in the sim 2 slot.
It worked before I flashed the rom and I'm at a loss as how to resolve the issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm no expert on this, but here is my guess.
There are 2 versions of the Blu Life Play. One of which supports 850/1900 3G bands, the other working with 850/2100. Both of these versions of your phone have 2 sim card slots. My guess would be (and odds are I am not right) is that you flashed the ROM corresponding to the opposite version of the Life Play that you have, and that caused some sort of issue. Like if you had the L100a, you might have accidentally flashed the L100i ROM, or the other way around.
Check the thread or page that you got the ROM from. That 2nd SIM card slot issue might be a known issue. Usually ROM developers will post a "What's Working" and "What's Not Working" section on the thread or page they made for their ROM. Check to see if the SIM card issue is in the "What's Not Working" section.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the reply.
That could be a possibility.
I have gone through the thread and I don't see anything specific to my problem but something similar.
I should I have been more vigilant before I flashed.

If it is really necessary that you have the 2nd SIM card slot, just go back to the stock version of Android that came with your phone, and then from there try to get another ROM. That way, even if you are unable to find another ROM that doesn't have the 2nd SIM card issue, at least you will be running a version of Android that does support it.

My main issue at the moment is actually getting the phone back to stock; every time I flash it there seems to be remnants of the old rom.
I cant' seem to get it back to stock.
I managed to get the phone back to stock including the recovery.
I still can't get the phone to recognize the sim.
After reading some threads here I think I flashed a rom for L100i instead of L100a.
I think the problem is to do with the modem.
Can anyone help me please?
I think I have the problem narrowed down to not having a IMEI number.
I have no back up of it.
Is there any way I can get a the IMEI back on my phone?
Phone is no longer rooted and having trouble rooting again.

If all you did was restore a recovery-made-backup, I don't think that will restore original baseband and stuff. If this is how you got back to stock, that means that although you are running stock BLU-Android, you are still using the broken L100i incompatible baseband.
I am not sure if this phone is compatible with ODIN, but if it is and you can find a tutorial on how to restore your L100a back to stock with ODIN then this is what you want. I am not sure what ODIN stands for, but it's a download tool used for not only restoring a phone's android operating system back to stock, but the other things that a plain old recovery-backup doesn't cover like kernel and baseband. ODIN requires a Windows PC with the correct phone drivers installed. So in this case you need the your phone's drivers from BLU on your computer, so that when you plug the phone in it is recognized as a BLU Life. Again, I am not sure if there even is an ODIN image for your phone since generally BLU phones are not that popular on XDA, but if there is then follow the instructions and use that to restore back to stock instead of just using a recovery backup.
IF YOU DO FIND AN ODIN IMAGE FOR IT, MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE OF INSTALLING THE "I" VERSION INSTEAD OF THE "A" VERSION! MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT THE ODIN IMAGE IS THE EXACT ONE FOR YOUR PHONE!!!!
EDIT: I just re-read your post and realized I didn't exactly answer your question. Sorry about that.
You should do the ODIN thing I mentioned above, just to make sure that you are on the right baseband. However I do not think this restores your IMEI as well. I Google'd how to restore a lost IMEI on an Android phone and got a couple articles on how to do so. One of these articles tells that CHANGING THE IMEI OF YOUR PHONE IS ILLEGAL!!!!! However It doesn't sound like this applies to you according to what you said, because you are only trying to restore a lost IMEI number, not change an already existing one.
Have a look at this article.
Good luck! :cyclops:

All I'm trying to do is get the IMEI that came with the phone back on it; nothing illegal.
Mobile ODIN is not compatible with my device.
I would like to get back to full stock; can anyone help with that please?
I have seen that SpFlashtool might be useful for me.
The only problem is is that I have no experience with it.
Can anyone give me some pointers on how to use it safely?
I'm not sure if people have any interest in this, but I think I have have the problem resolved.
I flashed octarom_kk_iq4410_v3_fixed which seem to give me a baseband then I used SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1328.0.183 to flash a secro.img.
after all that my imei's were restored.
Hey guys, I'm having a pretty annoying issue with my Galaxy S3 (Verizon variant), and even though I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is, and that I screwed myself, I wanna know if there's another answer to what's going on.
As the title of this thing says, I tried installing Clockworkmod Recovery on my GS3, but I did it via the ROM Manager app, since I'd totally forgotten how to do it on my computer, and Odin 3.09 wouldn't use the .tar or .img files I tried using to install the damn thing (still haven't figured that out).
Anyway, I flashed the CWM file on the phone, installed it, and whenever I try booting into recovery, it says some unauthorized software is on the phone, and I need to take it to a Verizon store.
I'm pretty sure Verizon locked us out of our bootloader, and we need to unlock it before we can make mods like this, but, being that I haven't had a GS3 for two years, I didn't know that, and didn't look it up, like a n00b.
So, I think I just partially bricked my phone. So, yeah. That sucks.
Is there any way around this? Is there a way to revert back to the stock recovery mode, so I can try doing this whole thing again?
Some phone info:
It's the Verizon, I535 variant
Running 4.4.2, Kitkat
Build number: KOT49H.I535VRUDNE1
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys
recently bought a s6 from ebay which was frozen on S6 logo. Basically managed to clear cache and factory reset from recovery but that didn't work, anyway I DL the O2 firmware and odin and put it into download mode I get a fail on odin when trying to install the rom
The phone has knox 1 and also has red writing SW Rev. Check Fail. Device: 3 Binary: 1.
I'm unsure what to do and if theres any chance for me to recover.
Many thanks
Mav
it failed because you flashed an incompatible Firmware.
where did it stopped flashing in odin? In sboot.bin?
If thats the case, you need to download proper firmware/country for your device.
Let me know what country is ur fone made of.
Hi thanks for your reply.
I managed to get it working by installing root and unikernel, it boots into O2 the firmwarw is 5.1.1
Only problem now is imei is 3500000000006
And it wont make calls dont know if imei is corrupt ir they sold me a stolen or lost phone?
I may install tw recovery and custom rom and see if that works.
Any suggestions?
Hi
Ive managed to sort out and get it to work infact typing on it now. Its currently rooted custom rom and twrp. I e managed also to restore original imei number so overall im quite pleased with myslef lol.
Anyway one last problem i have is ive tried all sims but none work i know ita picking up signal as the bar shows top right. Also chexk my settings.
Ive tried automatically and manually going to register networks but it says unable to connect try again later. I know uts not my area as my wifes s6 works perfectly. Sim also def works. The phone also picks up when a new sim has been inserted so i dont think its sim slot.
Any ideas guys
OK new update if anyone can help I'd really appreciate.
Installed new vador rom Imei reverted back and serial number is all zeros
Is this something to do with baseband if so how can I fix read somewhere about ariza patch but that was s3 4 etc.
Thanks
Mav
1. Your EFS is corrupted. The IMEI you see is a generic one, phone will be useless for network provider only wifi will work.
2. The one thing that caused this is by flashing an old bootloader to your phone. Thats why youve encountered Check Fail error on Download mode.
Happened to me also but got it fixed in the end.
OK thanks for the info how do I fix? I do have my wife's s6 but that's not rooted and don't want to root can I restore the efs
Many thanks
Mav

I think I know one thread that has a firmware downloader with ultra fast download speed you may try searching it.
I dont know if it will help, but you may be able to successfully flash the firmware but many of those who have problems were unable to boot the phone due to corrupted efs data.
Here's my way of fixing it (if you still have intact efs). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63693480&postcount=28
But if its already wiped, there's no way you can retrieve it unless bringing it to samsung or any repair shop.
Anyways, mine was fixed (IMEI) using Octopus box repair tool. Since I cant do anything to recover my generic imei.

As far as i know if your EFS partition is corrupt and you do not have a back up of the EFS partition to restore which you probably dont as you bought this as broken then sim capability is dead, im not sure of any other way to fix this unless you have the intact efs partition
Hi
How can I tell if the efs is corrupt it shows a baseband it now shows the correct ime I
It just won't connect to network it says try again.
I can post a screen print of efs folder on es Explorer if anyone knows what it should look like
Here are screen prints but I think I'm speaking to myself lol
Hi there i spent months on fixing issues like this (i now have a tool that takes care of all this) , best thing you can do is flash to a rom where the original imei came back do a backup of the efs, flash to a orginal rom ( latest rom) make sure its the right one for your device, connect to kies, install the rom again root and restore the efs failing that the imei is blocked use checkmend.com the uk version if your from the uk, message me if you need help

Your rom, recovery and kernel doesnt have to do with corrupted efs.
Only way is to bring it to repair service using box tools to re enter/validate your imei so that you can connect to your network provider. There is no other way around other than retrieving your efs and installing it or thru repair service.
You may now relax yourself at finding ways to connect, I assure it wont help trying to flash and flash and flash stuff to your phone.
---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 AM ----------
Uhm can you send sms or make calls? It seems you have a valid Imei
Ok ive tried all stock roms including o2 and a uk btu one but no luck they all do the same thing get frozen on Samsung logo then I flash unikernel and it boots.
When checking my efs folder I can see no modem file I'm now wondering could that be the fault? so I downloaded modem and BL for 5.02 and 5.11 both will not flash via odin I get a fail message and on device check fail device: 3 binary: 1 messgage in red?????.
So I'm a little lost, I was wondering if I managed to root my wifes s6 which is virtually new could I back up her efs folder then copy it into mine and just amend the imei to my original would that work? also is there a way of rooting my wifes phone without triggering knox?
Any other suggestions guys I really don't know what bootloader was on it to start with or rom is there any way for me to find this out?, also another weird thing when the o2 uk roms install they install german apps?
Thanks guys
Ive repaired EFS Partitions with scripts downloaded from links at xda.
For example i trashed my EFS partition on my note 3 so it caused hard reboots after android booted up and it couldnt be fixed with anything else than the EFS partition repair scripts.
Edit: friend repaired his Note 4 also.
Thanks but where can I find these scripts as I've looked everywhere and if I did find how do I go about doing it. At the moment when I try to flash modem and bootloader it fails.

Hi
I deleted my OS on my phone using twrp. I am now trying to reinstall the OS I deleted. The model of phone is a Samsung 5 SM-g900w8. The carrier is Telus Mobility in Canada. The steps I have taken so far is copy a ROM on to a SD card and insert it into the phone that is not working. When I do this TWRP does not show anything on the micro SD card. The second method I had tried is using fast-boot. I tried push the ROM on to my android device. Both methods I tried failed because I am probably not doing the steps properly. I am not even sure if the ROM I am using is proper. I have been searching the internet and don't even know what I am looking for. I found one site and download the ROM hoping it was correct. Where can I find correct Stock Rom for my phone? Maybe I could not push using fast-boot because I do not have the correct file? Why is the SD card showing (0)MB
Thank You for your help. Its will be greatly appreciated
