you tried a factory reset...I had a problem like this. and corrected after fatory reset
if that did not fix it,
Then maybe you have some problem with the ROM.
you download from here?

I'm going to redo the restore. Another issue I noticed was that I don't have a stock recovery installed

No VZW service after flashing.....need some guidance please

I was running Paranoid android for a while and all was fine. Phone started glitching , so I did a reinstall. Thats when my mobile service went out. Here what I did.
1. Noticed IMEI was B00000, so i re-copied my backup and IMEI fixed. Still no network.
2. I reflashed a new VZW modem and still no network.
3. Checked out phone info, and it shows no service. Phone Info shows corrected IMEI, network type as LTE/CDMA. But says "searching for service"
4. I went ahead and unlocked, booted in to CWM 6.0.1.0 and installed CM10 and Gapps. All loaded fine, but still no network.
Anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

Try flashing to stock with odin. Once you're back to stock dial:
*2767*3855# (which will wipe EVERYTHING on your internal SD and set your phone back to factory restore)

Yup try that, sounds like you didn't reprovision it after restoring your backup
So I reloaded stock everything, locked back up the bootloader, loaded the original modem and took it back to verizon. They popped in a new sim which restored data, but the IMEI still read at 0. Data and calls worked, even got the 4g icon. They said it was fine that it read zero and that it was just a network issue. The look on my face was "wtf?"

So is it working like it should? and have you flashed a rom to see if it still works?
You can try this. When you said you backed up did you back up with qpst?

Here's how to back up with a tutorial

I haven't had to restored just thought this might help but sounds like it may have worked its self out with Verizon.

Seriously, READ, do this!!!!!
I did same thing as you. Had a backup of my imei that I pushed back to my phone, only nothing happened either. Then I reprovisioned it using this and it went back to 100% working and displaying accurately.

No problem. Glad it's helping some people. I had a roaming/no data issue when I flashed a CM10 nightly and that fixed it for me too, so hopefully more people will realize it's a possible fix for those sorts of problems (assuming they still have their IMEI)

[Q]No cell service

Hello. I am having a bit of an issue. Today after I decided after having fun with touch wiz i decided i wanted to go back to a backuped copy of ParAndorid and we it go to the home screen i got repeated errors of com.andorid.phone so i rebooted and since I haven't had any cell service. I put it back to factory, tryed different roms and such and non are working. I even tired the ##76786# and got nothing. Any ideas?
Im guessing you lost your IMEI, did you happen to back it up? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852255

as far as ik its still there. Its showing a 99000020.... number. No, i didn't know if i had too.
Maybe your sim got jacked or something? Did you just do a reset on your phone or did you odin back to stock? If you just did a reset maybe odin a factory image and see if its corrected? Also before that maybe you can try flashing the radio/modem and see what that does?

I just did the factory restore in the rooted version of touch wiz i have installed and it corrected this issue. I ended up calling them to make sure it was nothing on my end. It was werid that a factory restore insdie of touch wiz would fix something that odin couldn't.
But yeah topic [solved] Thank you though x714x
Cool, glad you got it fixed!
Hello Everyone,
I ran into a problem today while trying to update to JB. I installed AllianceROM_I9300_JB_XXELK4-Base on my Galaxy S3. I noticed It changed the baseband to something different of what I have. Since I was not able to make calls, I decided to restore my backup trough CSW.
I noticed then that my IMEI had changed to something else.
My status now is: The IMEI I had is now different, the modem I had that used to work is not working anymore, I flashed a different version of the modem but I cant get it to register on the network.
Any help is appreciated.

[Q] Everything is messed up

idk what happened i was using my phone as normal and was using snapchat, then my camera crashed and rebooted my phone. then i noticed that i didn't have signal so i went to the settings and noticed that everything that has to do with ril is gone like imei, imei sv.
i have tried taking the sim out and back in but it wont work,
also my camera wont work, google play store crashes, but one weird thing is that my modem version does not show in settings but it does in when entering the bootloader. i flashed stock 4.4.2 but still nothing is working
please i need help, have tried searching the forums but cant find any thing this similar sorry if this has been answered before (and i don't have a efs backup because im stupid..)

did you flash the stock rom zip or did you use the actual factory images?
try using the factory images youll lose everything but you might get your phone back: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#hammerheadkot49h

Sounds like another flash memory failure. Call Google and see if they'll RMA it.

Have you flashed the cache.img? Try flashing it 2-3 times... Or just head over to stock recovery and format cache 2-3 times and then do a factory reset.. These things needs to be done via the stock recovery and not a custom one.
I had a similar problems some weeks ago and this solved it!

i live in norway we cant send them to google directly it has to go trough the company where u bought it, say for an example my carrier telenor which would then deal with the problem. but i bought mine of ebay because i wanted it faster (due to problems of the 2012s nexus 7 where we didnt receive it before november.) so i guess the phone is pretty much useless now?

nope...wiped the cache 3 times then a factory reset in stock recovery booted up still the same problems
Don't know if this will work in your case but it may be worth a try http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...orial-how-to-flash-factory-images-lg-t2713833
Give a try to this method too maybe it will work for you.:good:

i had the same issue when running the Nexsense port. There was a known issue that it would break the sensors back when it first got released but the DL link got removed immediately. after that there was a post to correct the sensors. but there was another issue with it as well. seeing as it was a NAND backup, it was very possible it re-wrote you EFS partition on your phone which stores you IMEI and other data like that. The only possibility of getting that back, is if you did a backup of the EFS partition prior to having an issue. just a warning: DO NOT FLASH ANOTHER PHONES EFS PARTITION TO YOURS. the only way to get the phone to work again with a messed up EFS partition (from what i have seen) is through replacement device unfortunately

Phone encrypted!!!

I was messing around with CM and I went into twrp to restore a backup and now my phone is locked. Can anyone point me where to go with this?
If you encrypted your device they only solution to decrypt is to factory reset.

You need to search around here. This is a documented issue with aosp ROMs. Someone put out a command line fix (i think it's in the noon-carrier-specific m8 forum) or you can use the ruu files found in this forum.

I have had this twice now, i fixed it by formatting data in twrp then factory resetting and restoring a backup from my sd. I lost all my internal storage.
factory reset dont work either sorry were both S.O.L. unless u have insurance then just "loose ur phone"
I'm back guys!!!!! I ruu'ed in fastboot. Weird thing was when my phone booted back up it still had supersu!!!!!! That made me happy. I then flashed twrp through flashify and restored a back up I made before this whole fiasco. Thanks again for everything!!!!
So you returned your phone to Verizon over this? If it turns on you can fix it.

So you sent in a phone that you broke and that can be fixed but are too lazy to research? And this is why companies lock down bootloaders. If you cant do basic searching, then dont root your phone.

s-off took ota wifi is shot?

Hello,
I'm having issues with WiFi, it doesn't connect to my home network at all. This is what I did..
I sunshine rooted/s-off with success then I fastboot stock recovery then took the ota. That went well, but the WiFi doesn't connect. Should I reinstall tarp and see if it connects or maybe flash the radio??
Thanks for your time.

You aren't the first. Can you backup and factory reset first to see if that fixes the problem?
I have a backup already, can I factory reset and still have my apn settings??
I'm still on stock recovery, should I flash twrp now??

No...Stock recovery is best for factory reset.
@dottat
So factory reset in stock recovery?
I'll still have my apn settings intact? Sorry I've only messed with a Sprint HTC one m7 ONLY on CDMA with no 4G LTE when I was on Guam. Now I'm afraid I'll lose settings I need to get it functioning properly.

I am having some wifi issues as well. I just tried a factory reset and the issue still remains. I will try doing the full RUU tomorrow, but off to bed for me for now.
My wifi issue is that it connects but constantly drops the connection. I haven't been able to make sense of it yet. I'm at work most of the time and this is where I notice it. I'm not sure if it is only here or happens on other routers, but I will keep trying to track it down.
Ok, I've tried to reflash stock recovery and redo what I did to take the OTA, but now it's just a RED triangle when it tries to install....
What am I doing wrong?
What/where can I find the stock recovery?
Also, I can't get into stock recovery also, to try and factory reset.
Also to add:
When I take the OTA is the phone still rooted? I remember vaguely that I wasn't able to use root apps at all, so maybe that's my issue with stock recovery.
Thing I am most worried about*maybe I'm overreacting* is carrier settings, when I factory reset or maybe doing a RUU, so guys please enlighten me about this.
