All,
Noob here as far as Android goes. I picked up a Galaxy S Captivate a few months ago from AT&T and I got a notification saying Froyo was available. Of course, Samsung made it near impossible to do, so I figured "I'm a computer programmer, I can do these kinds of things".
Using Odin, I put on a version of Froyo. It was... not a good ROM by far (I didn't know all the great ones were here) and after the 4th or 5th random crash, I decided to try something different. However, at one point the phone bricked. I was finally able to get Odin to push back 2.1 Eclair (the stock AT&T version), but since then, I get a "SIM Network Unlock Pin" prompt. I followed the instructions to grab the unlock code from the bml3.back file, but it doesn't work. I've tried upgrading to various Froyo's, but they don't work either. AT&T tried a new SIM card, but that didn't work.
At this point, my Android abilities are done. I have no idea how to fix my phone. AT&T can't help and of course, Samsung will charge me for a repair (I have no idea how much that is).
Can anyone think of a way to get rid of the SIM Network Unlock PIN thing? This is a legitimate phone on a legit plan. The Continuum 3.5 Froyo runs great, it just can't see my SIM Network card and a phone without that is...well, bunk
Thanks for the help, I wish I could retrace all my steps but I was an idiot and didnt write it all down.

I have never heard of anyone overcoming a lost PIN issue without completely reformatting the phone and reinstalling a ROM.
Try flashing a new 2.2 rom and using the froyo unlock method in the dev section (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831569).
Since you mentioned you're a programmer, I'm going to assume you're comfortable with adb. Make sure you back up /efs/ to your sd card, then again to your computer before you try it as rom flashes will typically not overwrite this partition. I suspect your nv_data.bin or some other part of your /efs partition is messed up, which is why flashing most roms won't fix it. I'm not sure if the one click stock odin will do anything, but it's also worth a shot if you haven't tried it yet.
There's also a backup of nv_data.bin in /efs, you can try copying that over your existing nv_data.bin and rebooting to see if it helps.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you. That was exactly it. I now have a phone again!
This place is great, but it's a bit overwhelming when you first join. Couldn't find that article on my own, but it was there!
Cool, glad to hear you got it running again.
so I have a SR I just put a new (used, off ebay but new to me) motherboard in, and it works fine except for no imei/baseband, so obviously no data/voice/etc.
the efs folder seems to be fine...imei folder is in there, keystr file is there...I don't understand what the problem is.
the worst part is, only certain roms will flash...I cannot flash to stock, I've tried with odin and from recovery, a couple different stock versions of GB, ICS, and still no luck. It actually flashes, then does the "android is upgrading" screen, but then bootloops on the optimizing apps part. I've tried to flash to stock probably 20 times now, wiped everything, fixed permissions, etc...without fail it bootloops every time.
the only roms Ive gotten to flash are slim and jedi...no stock rom will flash, nor avatar and a couple others I've tried. but slim and jedi flash and boot right up...just have blank imei/baseband.
I've scoured threads for days trying to figure out what to do here...nobody seems to have my exact problem, and everything I've found about restoring efs/imei/baseband has involved flashing to stock...which I can't do.
anyone have any ideas?
Have you tried flashing different radios (baseband)?

Take a look at this thread, it may help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25172599#post25172599
thanks for the replies...
I've flashed UCM1 and UCLL3 radios, they flash fine but no change...still can't flash to stock and no imei/baseband/service.
That fix thread was one of the first I found, but as I still have my keystr file in the efs folder, I didn't think it would apply to me...I suppose I could make an external backup of my efs, delete it and try one of those methods from scratch.
read through the restore to stock sticky http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 and go through the trouble shooting sections, if that doesn't help u could have bad hw

Hey, Im facing the exact same problem! just that my imei turned to 0 and basband to unknown after i upgraded to cynogenmod 10.1-rc.2.
It was working fine till suddenly one day i lost network. I tried everything like you did. So far ive had no luck fixing my efs!
What you can do is download QTPS and in it there is a RF NV Item manager to rewrite your efs. For that you need to put you phone into DIAG mode unfortuantely i cant get to that on 10.1nightly cynogenmod that im using.
I m stuck. I know for sure flashing roms or radios wont help at all. the same boot loop problem happens when I flash using odin, it use to work perfectly fine earlier.
Some how the nv_data.bin and such files are missing from my efs>imei folder that contain the imei data.
If you find something please lemme know too [email protected]

will do.
also, you may know this already, but just in case, be aware the skyrocket doesn't use nv_data.bin...I thought it did too when I first started searching around about this, and when i couldnt find it I was pretty freaked out...but then i found out the skyrocket actually uses 3 encrypted partitions rather than a nv_data file. so if you have at least some files in your efs/imei folder you may be in a better spot than it seems. of course if its totally empty, you'll likely have a lot more work to do.
I'll update if I have any luck.

Yes I have two files in my imei folder i,e keystr and mps_code.dat!
I tired changing them from root explorer! pasted someones else's efs folder! but still I cant fix my imei is stays 0.
i donno how to get to diag mode with this rom, otherwise i could have tried my luck with QPTS.
Incase you have broken your imei without backing it up, there is another way. And yes it is legal.
Here's the tutorial http://goo.gl/wtW29 and here's the needed tools (software & hardware) http://goo.gl/54mtk.

I actually have octopus box as well as the z3x samsung tool installed, however, they're both server activation based...the software is useless without an $89 (octopus) to $120( (z3x) activation.
I'd rather not spend that kind of money for something I'll likely only need once, so I'm gonna do as much as I can in the way of free solutions, and if I have no luck there I'll probably just send it to mobiletechvideos for their $40 efs/imei repair. I'm guessing they use one or more of these repair box programs themselves anyway, and will do the same job for only $40.
thanks for the suggestion anyway though..

There's this polish guy who probably also has all the same boxes and he takes €10 for imei repair by remote desktop.
http://forum.samdroid.net/f70/repair-imei-s2-5729/
And finally you could try helping the op of this thread to add compatibility for skyrocket, this would be free.

Isn't there any way to fix my imei on my own ?
Mt efs folder also looks good now with all the files it should have but still the imei remains unaffected.
Also i'd like to know that the qualcom nv tool showed my esn as dead and mied as 000....000 does the dead thing mean it isnt repairable ?
I tried using QPTS but this is where I get stuck.. (img attatched)

Obviously there is since some random polack can do it for you on his PC, the problem is the lack of knowledge.
Those who know won't tell you how, because they want € for it :crying:

People want money for it because it's mostly used for making stolen phones work again.
That means real life risks like fines, jail etc.
Of course there are lots of examples when people experiment with this or that and delete their imei accidentally, or want to change the imei for some other reason. But these are more rare.
An update...
I managed to finally get flashed to stock...still null/null imei & baseband unknown. Efs folder is still there with files, keystr file is on...not sure what else I can do myself at this point so, I guess its time for the Polish dude or mobiletechvideos.

unfortunately not for me. I finally got the polish dude to try restoring the imei remotely...he used like 3 or 4 different programs, nothing worked.
so, i just got a broken SR with a cracked lcd off ebay for $50 and used the motherboard from it.

Ohkies.
Did you ask the polish guy about the reason why he was not able to fix your mobile. Coz, I'm just having similar problem like yours. I tried working with all the local samsung service centre guys, nothing worked. One guy said that my mobile IMEI is locked in some database, so it is not picking or detecting my SIM, hence locked. I know that my mobile is unlocked and is valid, I ignored his comments.
I assume you changed your MotherBoard of the mobile with the new cracked SR's, so that it could take new IMEI instilled in new board. Is it so?
Also, please suggest me about any alternatives on how to fix this problem.:crying:
A while back, I lost my IMEI flashing CM10. I restored that back, and got my phone working again, but every time I leave the local area code, my phone says that I am roaming. Being that I recently moved out of state, this means that my phone now says that I am roaming all the time. While this doesn't greatly affect anything, I would like to fix it. The problem seems to stem from my ERI (ERI version: none). Is there any way to repair this?
I too have this problem now. I recently flashed a few cm10 nightlys one after another using the built in updater and I lost my imei. After using the nv-item_reader_writer program and the nv generator I was able to restore my imei but am still without an erI
This is what I did to get my eri back after losing my imei and restoring it. There may be some steps you don't need to do but it worked for me.
1) I flashed a stock rooted TW rom.
2) Next I flashed the VRLF2 modem found here (Click spoiler to see them) : http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34053-firmware-vrbmf1-modemrpmtzsbl-verizon-sgs3-sch-i535/
3) Next, I got my eri back using the forbidden software in this thread(You're going to have to search the thread some but you're on the right page): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32397-tu...ants/page__pid__1218913__st__220#entry1218913
4) Follow directions in OP of same thread.
5) Once you have you ERI back to 5 and your phone shows verizon network I highly recommend going to Synergy rom thread and looking for the HW keys back up zip. It can be found if you look through the attachments in that thread. Make a flashable copy of your keys with that zip and place on your sd card and in multiple other places for safe keeping.

Thank you for this. I do not need iut currently and I do have a proper NVBackup but you never know . I have it on my Box account just in case and besides I could always help someone that didnt do a proper NVbackup. Quick question. What happens if you flash a 16 GB PIT on a 32 GB Model? Would it brick you or just give you a 16 GB S3? I have a 16 GB model but just curious. I need to read up on this stuff.

Since I had restored my imei with qpst all I did was use the tool to restore my eri. From what I've read it won't work unless you downgrade your modem. I didn't have to mess with the PIT files listed. I don't think it would be good to mess with those without talking to someone who knows more than I do. JMO, I don't think it would end well mixing those up. I also forgot a step, once you're back up with your eri you can upgrade your modem back to whatever is best for you. A lessoned learned the hard way for me. I haven't had to worry about losing stuff like this since the original EVO 4G.
I installed root on my AT&T LG G3 and after I installed TWRP using the Bump method, I made a backup so that I can mess around a bit more with something to fall back on. Lo and behold, something eventually happened where it looks like I flashed something meant for a different variant of the G3. As a result, I had a null IMEI. I thought to myself, "No problem, I can just go recover my TWRP backup", but when I did, my IMEI problem persisted still. Even worse, when I recovered from the back up, the phone got stuck in a cycle of booting to the lock screen, turning off, booting to the lock screen, turning off, etc.
In short, is there anything I can do that does not require sending it in to the store for repair? Much obliged.
Return G3 To Stock
Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/unroot-return-to-factory-stock-att-lg-g3-t2820827
I just followed the same directions and returned my LG g3 to stock firmware and modem (which is causing the problem of no IMEI for you)
Thanks for the reply! The only issue is that whenever I try to unroot, I get the "Can't change to download mode" error. Any input on that end?
Unplug from computer then plug back in till it works might have to do it a couple of times
Alot of people seemed to be having issues with Windows 8.1 so I installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 and followed the steps in the guide above. It's going through the unroot process at the moment.

did u try what was suggested above? follow the link and the instructions therein
Edit: I got it back to proper firmware, but now have an issue with re-locking the bootloader so that I can install an OTA and make my sim card recognizable again. "Still waiting for signed boot.img"; can anybody provide a DL link to a signed boot.img for my specific model? [PCO29.114-54-2]
I'll try to keep this short and simple. It's my first post to these forums (hi), so sorry if I say stuff that sounds really simple or silly.
So, for a while now, I was dealing with a lot of really minor issues on my phone that I was told by those I asked was corruption in the android stock firmware. It wasn't anything major, but the issues were building up, and factory resets weren't fixing any of them. So, with my phone already out of warranty, I decided there wouldn't be any harm in trying to fix it myself. After reading up on it a little, I unlocked my bootloader, then I decided I would try flashing a custom ROM.
Well... I didn't even get that far. I was trying really hard to use the TWRP to back up my phone, but it kept getting errors. Looking it up, people said you just have to delete corrupted files to make it work, so I went back and forth wiping the files that gave it issues, until eventually I just decided to give up because there were so many corrupted files, just in the boot folder alone. When I went to turn the phone on and throw in the towel... I got the dreaded bootloop.
I freaked out, and decided that since I could still get into fastboot mode, I would try to stock the flash firmware to fix it. So, I went online, just found stock firmware, ran a batch file that did it all automatically, and...
When I turned my phone on, it was for the complete wrong carrier. Previously, it was a device I bought from T-Mobile, and thus, I was using a sim card and all that from them. Now the device is tied to Cricket, and so, of course, that stuff doesn't work.
Weirdly, there's other issues on the device now too, like when trying to add a Google account, the phone just closes out of everything...
Well.
I do know there's a guide here for how to flash the phone back to original firmware (although they don't have my firmware (M3DE6) listed), but there's other issues now, too. Stuff like the IMEI are totally wiped from the phone's memory now, just being listed as "Unknown" in the phone's settings. Not to mention, everytime I turn on the phone, I get text that says "bad ID" and it takes an additional 10-15 seconds to turn on. Is there any way to fix all this stuff? I don't mind if I have to restore it to OG stockware or if flashing a custom ROM will fix the problem- I just really need my phone to be able to work with my sim card again so I can take and make calls/texts.
I've still got to pay on my phone for a year still via the contract I made with T-Mobile, so it'd really suck if my phone got stuck in an unusable condition like this. If there's anybody who could just help me get it back to WORKING condition (calls/texts, google accounts, etc.), then I would greatly appreciate that. Thanks.

I did find my device's actual stock firmware from another website and installed it, but now the sim card doesn't work. I've heard that if I perform an OTA update, it'll make it work again, but... I can't perform an OTA update because the bootloader is unlocked. I can't re-lock it, because everytime I try, it gives me a message that says "Still waiting for signed boot.img".
Someone said to use the rescue and smart assistant app, but it doesn't recognize my phone, so that's a no-go.

I tried a ton of different fixes and approaches, and I still can't get it to work. I'm gonna make a new thread now since I've got a new main issue to deal with. This is... a mess.
