on the XXDME6 base - you can not install old modems,
because it will cause for unknown modem & imei status.
Solution flash - XXDME4 modem

FIX IMEI
If YOU type *#06# it says imei null.
Also another thing - that there is no baseband version
#######################################################
the fix
open your SGN II - under the battery you'll find IMEI (in my case)
write - on a paper
turn on GPS
on the dialer - *#*#82043036#*#*
next go to GPRS -> WRITE IMEI ->Reboot
Will it allow modem downgrade, ie DME6>DME4>Stock 4.1.1?
I want to downgrade to 4.1.1 from present DME6 (UK BTU N7100)

Ok, i tried this.
1. Had DME6 on my device.
2. Flashed your DME4 modem which was successfull. The IMEI was still present.
3. Flashed Stock 4.1.1 BTU. IMEI was lost and had emergency calls
4. Flashed DME4 again, and IMEI came back. So i am back on 4.1.1 which i wanted.
The dial string ...8204... doesnt work on my N7100 UK BTU, although i didnt need it because i got imei back.
Successful..........
I had two copies of my efs. I reflashed my efs in 4.1.1 (XXALJ2 modem) and I got the imei back. Everything back to normal. Phew...
the method is when u lost your imei go to efs folder by using root explorer and copy that efs folder to your eternal sd card (i mean backup efs folder to sd card)
then flash a stock rom via odin then your phone still not have service and imei (maybe fake imei is 0499...)
root your stock rom, install root explorer and copy efs backup folder from your sd card then paste with the efs folder in your root directory
=> reboot and your imei is back
i have successful with this method

But how can you get efs back, when the backup you made was from a corrupt efs? Maybe you just didn't flash the latest modem when you were on me6, and your imei wasn't corrupted at all.

no your efs folder is still there with your original imei but the modem has hide or can use it ( so backup it in to sd card ,i mean copy it)
flash your stock XXDME6 BASE WITH XXDME4 kernel in there package, dont change any modem
then use root explorer delete your efs folder (it will show delete fail but all sub folder and files in efs have been delete)
=> reboot your phone ,now android will creat neccessary file for efs folder ,copy your backup efs folder from sdcard to root efs folder (replace all)
reboot and u will get your imei

Let me understand, for I have installed the MF6 without backup my EFS (and now I stuck with this rom):
You installed a previous stock rom with odin, installed that attached modem (ME4) and all right... but you then installed ANOTHER stock rom with odin and was all right?
You will need efs backup made prior to installing MF2. Without it you will not be able to revert to stock with working modem.
i have updated my ROM based on DME6, I have a nandroid backup of my prev ROM DME1 based, tried to restore it. Baseband/modem got restored but EMEI invalid, its start with 0049. It displays my network logo but cant register to network.
This means Im stuck with DME4 modem. Hope our Devs here would be able to resolve this issue with the new released firmwares.

I think you got yourself in a tuttifruti mix not knowing what are doing,not having efs backup and flashing a bunch a things trying to fixit.
Now you have to go back to your last working build and stay there until samsung release a fix so we could flash withaout worries.

Hello!
Am using Samsung Galaxy S i9003 running on android 2.3.6
My phone is not fetching any cellular signal even though sim card is inserted in it. It is asking me to insert sim card when I check for mobile networks. After a thorough check up what I found is the IMEI number is missing. It is showing blank pop up when I check in for IMEI (*#06#).
Also what I've found is:
PDA: I9003XXKPQ
PHONE: Unknown
CSC: I9003SERKPQ.
So I thought this cellular signal problem could be due to missing "phone" file in the software of the operating system. So I flashed a custom ROM (Jelly Bam). I was successful in flashing but am still facing the same problem. No IMEI and "PHONE"
I flashed it back to official stock ROM and I still see the same. No IMEI and versions as:
PDA: I9003XXKPQ
PHONE: Unknown
CSC: I9003SERKPQ.
NOTE : I Have flashed the Stock ROM finally with ODIN with all the four files by appropriately selecting them.
Is this happening due to software error or is this a hardware problem?
Why the IMEI number is missing?
Please help me.

the data present in your efs folder which includes files like "nav_data.bak" "nv_data.bin" they assign IMEI number to your phone... these files might be missing or corrupted... better try any previous restore to fix this problem

I guess you are correct but the restored file on the sd card is corrupted one, I guess. Because the same problem occurred after restoring the previous backups. Can I get any custom restores online for efs? I don't want any warranty for my mobile, I just need it working. In case if it works on a fake IMEI by flashing a custom EFS it is fine with me.

you are on froyo right?? if yes then you simply flash another stock rom of base froyo or gingerbread through ODIN and this should restore your IMEI

hmmm... actually stepping up for some custom roms based on CM 9 and above solve the IMEI problem.... I recommend you to first download a stock gingerbread ROM and flash it via ODIN... if it doesnt work then download a CM9 based ROM (4.0.4) wipe data/cache/dalvik/ and flash it via CWM recovery then wipe cache/dalvik... it should work and there is like 30% chance to get your IMEI back
But my main point is how u lost ur IMEI suddenly?? You must have flashed something which lead to missing IMEI.
Will Try this once!

IMEI is lost when you delete/edit efs data or when you flash a firmware ,but the chances of loss of IMEI are during firmware flashing are very slim

it's doesn't recognize my cellular network and yes the sim is in the right direction because i didn't had signal only after i've downgraded.
any suggestions?
heard it has something to do with modem.. tried to flash 44S modem/33R modem and nothing
Why don't you try flashing the whole 44s rom? or try calkulin's 44S?

firstly try to flash u stock rom image using fastboot flash method if it not worked then go to below steps
Have u checked u r IMEI is it ok? If no u have messed up with efs partation and there will be no IMEI so no network no signal
X Have u using custom recovery? If yes have u backed up u r efs partation before downgrading
There are Custom TWRP that have options to back up efs partation
If u have backup with efs then restore it all will be fine
If u don't have backup then there will be lots of problem

My IMEI is empty
Hello friends,
I have a Mi4i which was rooted and Cyanogen was installed.
Suddenly after reboot, the phone stopped booting into the Cyanogen OS.
I tried to flash the Cyanogen again but it did not boot.
I flashed the stock ROM, which is MIUI 6 and the phone booted this time.
Now I could see that the SIM card was not getting detected. And also IMEI number was showing as invalid.
I then deleted all the partitions and tried to recover the phone by flashing using "MiFlash". This time too the Cyanogen OS didn't boot up.
Then I again flashed the stock ROM and this time also MIUI booted up correctly.
Still the IMEI was showing as invalid.
I don't have any backup of the EFS partition.
I checked the stock ROM flash_all.sh script and could not find any efs partition being written (modemst1, modemst2, fsg).
Then from somewhere I got the modemst1, modemst2 and nv_data partition data and I wrote the partitions manually.
After writing the EFS partitions Cyanogen booted correctly. But this time the IMEI showed as "012345678901234" and "012345678901235".
As this is a dummy IMEI, the SIM was not getting registered in the network.
Tried with QPST RF NV manager tool to write the IMEI which successfully did but with *#06# it still showed Invalid IMEI.
Tried with a couple of IMEI flasher and none of them worked.
Also tried to write the IMEI number using AT command (AT+EMGR=1,7,"IMEI1") but the AT command was returning "ERROR"
Please help me to recover my phone.
Now I have my phone with MIUI 7 installed and it is working fine except the IMEI issue.
Thanks in advance.
You can use QPST Tools to program the efs manually, but I've not tried it. So try to give it a try and see if it works

Attaching the efs dump from my mi4i.
It will really be of great help to me if you can fix the phone.
In the current efs dump, I could only write the IMEI number of the first sim. I am not aware of the address of the IMEI of the second sim slot.
Thanks for your help and valuable comments.

Somehow solved the issue, by flashing stock from using Odin. But, then, it ran in to issue, showing dead android icon. after that flashed TWRP using Odin and flashed "no-verity-opt-encrypt". No, it's working with the correct ime but incorrect s/n.
