Hi,
I recently got my phone in a major problem while installing recovery using LGMDP. Right after that 'no sim card inserted' is flashing constantly flashing on my screen and I am not able to use my 'phone'. i had a backup of my phone's NV file. I tried to restore it using this and this but couldn't for dunno what reason. In frustration I later deleted all my files saved to fix this problem including my backed up NV file. Now before going to LG service centre to fix my phone, I want to make a final try to fix it myself.
Please help I need a NV file and definite method to restore it in my phone.
Thank You.

I've got back to stock-rom with my XT1068, and it took me a lot of time to configere my Phone and apps to my desired settings. After this I've made an backup using TWRP. I've choosen to let TWRP compress this backup to save some storage space, and it was completed without anny errors. So I guess the backup is valid...
Now I wanted to go back to my clean configuration. So I've wiped my Phone using also TWRP, and tried to restore the backup after this. But I'm stuck at this point unfortunately.
It fails somehow. It seems that I can restore all the selectable options, except the data part. When restarting the Phone, it starts a new configuration (like starting the Phone from scratch and for the first time). But without anny personal settings or installed apps. When I've trie to restore data after this, it still fails.
After trying a lot of diffrent things, I only once manged to get a restore from the backup, so I guess this backup is not corrupted.
Someone maybe knows how to solve this? Manny thanks in advance!
Hello,
I started with Galaxy Note 2- i317M (rogers, canada), rooted with DN3 V4 beta installed. But I wanted to try DN4, so I created a back-up using TWRP and tried installing DN4. However, I later realized that it is not for the LTE versions yet and phone did not recognize SIM anymore. So I wiped the data and tried installing dn3 v5.5, but the phone still did not connect.
Losing all hope I installed DNv4 again, but it still did not work. So i finally just tried restoring from the back-up I made using TWRP. Everything in the phone is same except no network.
Finally I tried restoring from back-up after doing a complete wipe of internal storage and everything except the external card. But still the error does not go away. I researched more about the error and the fact that my imei shows up as null/null. I used the instructions of using EFS professional, but it did not work. The model number in my phone now shows up as SM-G900F and baseband shows as unknown, and it shows DN3V5 Rom despite the clean-up and restoring from DN3V4.
Any guidance available on this please...I need specific steps because after 12 hour search and try-outs I am lost now.....
UPDATE:
Solved it! Here is the solution for anyone in this problem

worked like a charm.. No reason to throw this and get a new phone
I have had this problem. It didn't happen whilst flashing though. My imei number is now a generic one and I had no efs backup. After 5 days of trying everything I can find I'm giving up. My note 2 is dead as far as I'm concerned. As far as I'm aware to get my imei back I'll have to send it for repair so I'll buy another phone and not a Samsung
I don`t think your phones are dead. I didn`t try it personally, but I`m sure you can restore your EFS back. Just you need to do some research, maybe you could start here:

Do not give up, read on end you will eventually do it! And, by the way, next time maybe you don`t forget to back up before doing anything to your phone!

I did back up. with both titanium backup and twrp but it is not working. And I dont think I will give up. I will format is all together and start over if i have to.
Do you think it will work if I format it entirely and start over?

Glad to see you solved it!
So I made a backup and promptly flashed a new rom as soon as I got my OPO it hasn't even been activated yet. When I went to activate it I realized my imei number was null. I looked for my backup but I must have deleted the backup somewhere along the way. Is there some way to restore this. Like if I flashed the stock image would it fix this? I saw another thread for fixing a corrupted EFS but is that the same thing. I'm sorry I don't really understand much of this stuff.
Thread concerning corrupted efs is where you need to be.
I updated my Oneplus One manually to the newest Version of CM12s. While flashing it, my Recovery (TWRP) chrashed. So to be sure I installed my freshly performed Nandroid Backup. But nothing helped. I couldnt connect with the Wifi, no SIM Cards were found, no Bluetooth Connectivity and it had Random Reboots. So i decided to flash back to Stock CM11s (the first ever released). But the Problems were the same afterwards. I flashed the Stock image via ADB and, after I found out nothing changed, via the Oneplus One Toolkit, but the Problems were still there. I also made a video on Youtube to show what happens and i hope that i can repair it and must not send it back to repair, because a repair would cost me up to 300€. So pls tell me a way to fix this Problem, because I really like this Phone:crying::crying::crying:

Ok found your vid, I see you have flashed the stock image files via ADB, have you done a full factory reset (wiping data) from the phone/TWRP? Its a bit worrying that flashing the stock image files didnt sort the issue. As it seems to be WiFi on/off that causes the reboot it would make me think it was to modem/radio but this should have been written again when you flashed the stock images.
@AxelWexel can you check in your Settings>About phone menu if your IMEI number is showing? Just in case your EFS has become corrupted. It definitely sounds fixable as if something has corrupted and needs wiped fresh.

Thx for the Links and i tried to watch on my phone and there is no imei number. I also did a full wipe after i found the issues. I also tried it via the Toolbox to flash the stock rom back but it hadnt change anything. But I will look the links you postet and reply if anything has changed. But now thx again:good:
P.S: I renamed the Video to "Oneplus One not working (23.06.2015)" to find it more easily
Edit 1: The Second Link with fixing corrupt partitions via adb wont work for me because i dont have root but my bootloader is unlocked. so i cant find the root acsess for adb in the developer options
Edit 2: I installed color os like the link said, done everything it said, but still no wifi, bluetooth and no sim card detection:crying:. Luckily the random reboot stopped Could you again help me further more because it seemed to help
Edit 3: I went back to cm11s, because in color os when i turned the phone off it turned on again, the connectivity was not there. After the install it became worse with the random reboots. I think i must send it to repair and pay 300€:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Last week, I flashed a firmware and now my phone cannot detect SIM card, cannot call or message, WiFi cannot work too. I think the efs folder is corrupted and I did not make a backup of it. I tried factory reset, reflash stock firmware, wipe /system. I am left with one more solution that is the QPST method. However when I wanted to write the changed NV items only, there is an error saying Bad response from phone. Anyone can help me with this problem asap? Thanks in advance.
I'm also facing same issue
