Motorola Moto G Xt1032 - how to recover IMEI?

Hi all,
My Moto G XT1032 have Unlocked Bootloader CWM recovery and is rooted, running CWM room v 11.
Phone lost IMEI code after flashing with diffrent roms, now I don't have mobile reception, wifi and bluetooth is working fine.
I had similar issue with Gionee E6 but I found imei file in the phone and recreate IMEI number.
In Moto G I can't find imei file so don't know hot to fix this.
Please let me know how to recover IMEI number.
I hope that someone know how to do it.
Many thanks
Chris

Please help me

I've never heard of this before and it seems extreme that you could lose IMEI number just by flashing a custom ROM. What method did you use?
I would have assumed fastboot flashing stock firmware should solve this.

Hi Sorry for late reply but I lost internet connection on Saturday morning.
When I have been doing some stuff in CWM recovery, had system and data partition mounted.
Then done rm -R * in root dir.
At this point I thought that my current dir is tmp.
After this I lost wifi and IMEI.
I manage to sort out wifi but not IMEI code.
Do you know how to fix this?
Since that I have been re-flashing stock rom and CWM rom but none of them help.
Chris

anyone can help to recover IMEI ?
Thanks

Changing/manually setting the IMEI is illegal afaik. And afaik assisting someone with that is also forbidden here on xda. We used to have a similar problem on the phone I came from, and there was a app which let you backup/restore your IMEI. You need to have a backup in order to restore it so this won't really help you...
This is what I'm talking about: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591997
Edit.: There actually seems to be a way to manually set it but I'm not sure if it is device-specific.

You can find your Imei on the back of the phone.
If you google android 4.4 set imei you should find something from technostall which might help you
Good luck

Yes, it's on the battery.

I haven't.
I tried to sole this issues re-flashing with different roms, but after several operations it bricked.
It's totally dead, not charging, in linux I can't see device connected, so i think that is dead.
I bought new one.
Good luck with this problem.

I solved the problem, place to charge the phone, let him take some of the load and flash the original ROM, after that flash CM11, and run perfectmente, I think at first it was because I had done without the SIM, the second time you make with the SIM sunset ...

Yes It Does for most of the devices given you should know the proper method.

Mtk is different. It's not the same thing.

Any news?
Also I think the problem is that the imei is on the phone just not on the OS? (obviously, but...)
Maybe when we all reflashed to the original stock (and countless other stocks) they just didn't have the proper folder to access in order to identify what imei they're assigned?
Because every single time I've tried to manually rewrite the imei to it all the methods I've used are futile. Even the ones specially tailored to the Moto G's hardware SnapDragon - Qualcomm...

restore IMEI by Motorola service?
Same problem for me. I am really interested in some experience about restoring IMEI.
Motorola support phorum owner replied that Motorola service can recover IMEI (not covered by any kind of warranty of course).
I have tried to reflash factory ROM with and without inserted SIM card, but unfortunately no difference.
I have seen looking for solution, that for some people Android system sees IMEI=0, but the IME is still untouched using fastboot mode and "fastboot getvar" CLI command
For me it's empty using the "getvar" command as well.

The official service center in Germany told me that they mustn't repair selfmade imei problems :S

Lost IMEI
You could all try this new method claimed to be working but as I have not lost my IMEI I can't say, please report back if it works for you?

Sorry friend.. You erased your imei partition. I did the same thing on my XT1543 four months ago, and until now, didn't find solution. I am using it as a tablet.

I wanted to be "smart" and taped "fastboot erase all" instead of doing it more than once "as it should be done". Guess I erased my IMEI too (on XT1541). Hope someone will come with a solution like those for MTK devices. Also using my phone as a tab/mp3 player.
Thanks

I got my cellphone signal back. Up to now, I can make and receive calls and SMS, but not connect on cellular data network. I flashed brazilian radio/modem.

If your IMEI is 0, you don't have any real option but to have it repaired. You should contact Moto customer service, there is nothin you can do to restore the IMEI to your device.

if u can register into a cellular network and send/receive SMS that means that u changed ur 0 IMEI. If i quite understand, this binary file that u flashed into your device did that task (of updating IMEI) ?
Can u give put the link plz?
Thanks!

Repair means writing a new IMEI in the device NVM.
As it was written/deleted the first time it can be refreshed again, just need to find the IMEI @ in the NVM (quite easy to say u'll tell me).
Do you have any idea how much Moto customer service charges that ?
Thanks

Hello bro idk if it's useful but u can use Xposed Framework's "IMEI CHANGER" modules.. Maybe those help..! Also try flashing modem images again..!

Thanks bro! The thing is that i'm on Marshmallow that cannot be rooted yet, if u got a clue on how to root it please let us know!
Does flashing the modem allows to change the IMEI ? is there a trick like hacking the source of the modem image and compiling it with a specific IMEI ?

If you flash modem files for your device , you will get back your imei and baseband, I already got by this.

I have the same problem because I deleted the NVRAM and unfortunately I did not make a backup. then I try to fix the problem using Miracle box by untroducing imei 1 and 2. the network has been restored but there is always a conflict from time to time the network disappears. 4G does not work and when I use 3G the SIM 2 loses the network, the MEID and always 0000 ....

If you have rooted your phone, GhostPhone app is working perfect and keeps all numbers without need to restore them manually on every update or changed mobile network settings(the last oftendeletes IMEI on many MTK 6xxx phones). If no root access - use MauiMeta to flash them from PC, it is not hard for use from unexpirienced people.

Has anyone found a way to restore lost IMEIs?

I had the misfortune of bricking my OP8 a while back and ended up having to use SMT mode on MSMDownloadTools. As we all know, this will cause you to lose your IMEI numbers. They return a value of 0. Has anyone come up with a solution to restore the IMEI numbers without having to mail their phone in for repair?

U fixed?same issue

i changed my IMEI using miracle box .. now my phone cant connect to any network .. i am trying to restore my IMEI but it s not possible .. anyone :'(

Again, this is why you don't illegally change your IMEI. Now you're likely stuck with a dead brick of a phone because you can't switch back the IMEI either.

Hello so I was using the phone as casual but suddenly during some call the phone cut off and there was no signals or sim card showing so I check the call app and check the IMEI and it was null I don't know how this happened so I reinstall firmware even factory reset but couldn't fix it so plz somebody help me to fix this phone imei the phone is rooted by magisk but twrp is not installed so plz help me what do I do...

If you haven't backed up the /EFS and/or /NVRAM partition where phone's IMEI is stored before re-flashing phone's Stock ROM then you have lost, unless you have the box at your hands with which phone has been delivered: IMEI should be printed on there.

If Windows Device Manager shows you an unusable driver is installed then this has nothing to do whether driver is signed or not. It simply means the driver isn't suitable.
