[Q] Bell i9000m return to original FW.

Hello everyone,
I got kind of a little big problem here myself.
I have installed another rom, the one froms doc's (exactly BUJP8) and now I want to return to the original firmware, like when I received the phone, simply because my phone is all bugged now(can't connect to Bell service), and I want it to return to its original state so I can use the warranty at the store I bought the phone without problem.
So are there an way that I can return to the original FW, I thought I had done an backup with clockwork, but it doesn't seem so...
Thank you very much.

[Q] IMEI corrrupted

Bought a new S6 from Ebay that had been opened up to all networks. Discovered it was rooted which I didn't want so I flashed it with a stock Vodafone ROM. The phone worked fine for about 10 days then all of a sudden I got the message 'not registered on network' when I try to make call. It turns out that the IMEI number has changed. Does anyone know whether this type of problem can be sorted out?
Flash back to stock via odin.

IMEI Corrupted
I'm going to use a Vodafone ROM as this phone was originally on Vodafone before the seller had it opened up to all networks. THE ROM is G920FXXU1AOCZ_G920FVFG1AOC4_G920FXXU1AOCW_HOME.tar.md5. Does this sound like the right one? Sorry for all the questions - I'm new to this. The other thing worth mentioning is the IMEI at the moment is 350000000000006. Where could this have come from? Any ideas? It's weird because the original IMEI was in tact for about 10 days before it changed to the one above. Any help at all would be appreciated

Corrupt imei is known issue when flashing and rooted. That's why firdt thing you do when rooting, is you backup your stock rom together with efs folder. Idk which is your stock rom, you have to do some research, download that rom and use odin to go back to stock. You will lose everything you got on the phone btw so save any pictures or music.

Thanks for that. The problem I have is that there's no backup of the EFS folder or the stock ROM. Without these, is there any way of sorting this out or is the phone dead? Cheers
hi
i have same problem did you fix that if yes please help me
Bring S6 back to Samsung for repair
My guess is the phone you bought was stolen and after 10 days it got blacklisted.
Or the seller claimed he lost his phone to insurance company, sold it you, got a new one on insurance, and then after the 10 days the "lost" phone (your phone) got blacklisted.

but i checked IMEI is clean
Oh right, that's weird then! I guess efs partition could have just randomly corrupted.

I have the exact same problem, bro. All of the sudden my IMEI changed to 350000000000006 and I'm not able to register on my network. Did you manage to fix this? Please, let me know.
The same story, any help?
How I can fix this? Please help
Get Chimera tool and you should be able to fix it no problem
Did you manage to fix?
My baseband shows as attached after installing vador rom so I'm confused
If you didn't formatted/wipe the efs/nvbackup, there's a chance you can retrieve your imei.
But if it doesn't, the only way is to bring it up to Samsung or a good phone technicians to repair or get you a new branded IMEI for your phone. Mine was fixed by a technician using Octopus box tool.

Does flashing a rom change the carrier of a SIM??? Read Below and please answer me!!!

Hi, I am going to explain something, but I know it would not make sense to you guys.
My friend who has a Samsung Galaxy S2 SM-T989D, got that phone from a friend, and I pluged the phone to my computer. The phone was with a cellphone carrier called Telus (In Canada), and the phone got bricked because I was trying to load a JellyBean rom on it because my mom used to have that same S2 (got it from the store, not from my friend shane friend) and my moms old S2 (same model number and everything) had Jelly Bean on it. 4.4. something. Anyways. Shanes phone got bricked and I found another software to flash on his phone and I used ODIN, and not his phone looks like its with T-Mobile (a US carrier). My question is, that, Since his phone was carrier locked with Telus before I flashed a rom and bricked it, does that mean since his phone looks like its from T-Mobile locked with T-Mobile? Does flashing a rom change the carrier of the SIM???

i have never seen a rom change the sim itself.
if you manage to flash another carriers rom, as it seems you have, and it doesnt brick your device (fairly common), the phone is going to report the new carrier because its coded into the rom.

Stuck in Setup Wizard after factory reset.

Hi everyone,
I bought a unlocked galaxy S6 Verizon on Ebay not too long ago. Recently, i did a factory reset on this phone and it went fine.
After rebooting, i stuck in 2nd step of the setup which is phone activation. It said it may take up to 5 minutes. However, after a while it will reboot itself. Even i leave it at choosing language step, it still reboot after a while.
I tried to boot in safe mode or wipe data again but it still doesn't work. Then, i flash stock rom with Odin, still it doesn't work.
I currently live in Canada so i think it can activate because of that.
Can anyone help me with this situation?
Thank you.
Try removing SIM card from phone before you use setup wizard

Sounds like it might be overheating and then the thermal sensor safety feature turns the device off to prevent hardware damage.
Is the device warm/hot when it shuts down?

No, it doesn't feel hot at all
The problem was the battery. I bought an original battery and problem fixed
