Hi guys, as I explained in the related thread, after downgrading from ICS to GB my O3D p920 thanks to berni's guide, I'm now having troubles fixing my IMEI.
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734330 without success.
After a short conversation with Pesach85 I noticed that, when connecting the phone to my PC in debug mode it normally detects and installs all the new hardware. But, after dialing 3845#*920# and selecting "CP Download image" from "Port settings", it seems to DISCONNECT ALL THE PREVIOUSLY DETECTED HARDWARE, and installs a new device (Intel(R) flash loader utility).
If someone tells me how to let all the hardware stay connected to my PC, I would be able to fix my IMEI with tutty.
if there's another method to fix the IMEI please write it here.
PLEASE HEEEELP!!
I've been in the same position for a while. Make sure to try the LG Support Tool recovery in S/W mode. (Remove battery, unplug USB, press vol UP, plugin USB - Power + Vol UP. It should show S/W mode. Depending on which loader it should show some korean text).
If you enter your IMEI number to repair the phone it should fix it all. Tho if you came from ICS you might need to do a factory reset after that when the phone boots (it will nag about no space available).
^ +1 This works. It will unroot your phone, but it will restore your IMEI.

Restoring IMEI
1.Connect phone by USB
2.Activate USB debug mode
3.Enter 3845#*920# in dialer if that doesn’t work try 3845#*925# or 3845#*720# if device is SU760
4.Select Port Settings -> Select CP Image Download
5.A new device should appear at let it install
6.Open Tutty (or hyperterminal) and select serial protocol. Click on open
7.Type AT if response is not OK, change port number (it is possible that when typing you don’t see any letters)
8.Type at%imei, it should display a dummy IMEI
9.Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x where x,x,x... is your orginal IMEI number (found under the battery of your phone). It should response IMEI WRITE OK
10.Reboot phone

But little changing in the above,
step 3 depend on your phone model or rom in it like for SU760 code it 3845#*760# and for P920 it is 3845#*920#
in step 4 I selected CP USB instead of CP Image Download or CP Reset
Final I was unable to get it to work in Windows 7 so I tried on Windows XP in my office and method magically worked and my imei is restored. I can make call and so on now

hey
I not have the SU760 for the long time and was not visiting the forum much, sorry for not replying earlier but it may help other if your problem is already solved
Hopefully your problem is already solved if not, after step 5 check the device manager what your phone is assigned com port com4, com5 or whatever com"xyz" xyz is a some number then in the hyperterminal in All Programs -> Accessories -> Commincation -> Hyper Terminal and in new connection select the com port your phone is assigned whatever that xyz was and start the connection and proceed.
P.S Method not work on Windows 7 so you must be using the Windows Xp
My phone was stolen and got it back by chance
I have the box and original imei & serial number
I guess that The one who steal it tried to change the serial and imei but did something wrong that he lost the imei
Any way!
I flashed the original rom
E: faild to find /misc partition
And got dm-verity error later
So i flashed clean_nougat_v2.7 rom and TWRP Recovery
Enabled USB debugging and used z3x loader 29.5 as i don’t have box and couldn’t find a newer version with loader
But it gives me an error “not supported EFS type”
( i don’t have a newer version of samsung tools pro with loader)
Tried the *#0808# i get no response to activate the usb modem
I tried to install “phoneutil.apk” it gives me an error message “ Error can't install, package conflicts with an existing package “
Z3x loader also gives me an error message to downgrade the modem if possible when i try to read the certificate and it detects the modem in this case
The serial number also got changed.
I also tried to delete the modemst1 and modemst2 as some threads here suggested that and many got their problem solved
But when i hit enter to this command in twrp terminal it gives me (not found) error message
——-
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/Modemst1
——-
And when i try fastboot erase modemst1 on my pc
It gets stuck on waiting for devices
And i’m stuck here now, i don’t know what to do further ...
By chance i got a friend who has the same model
Is that helpful ?
Any idea?

Hi there,
My sensation 4g on cyanogen 13 (android 6.0.1) by Ivanich.
After couple of weeks abroad on vacation using flawlessy my phone in roaming, the exact moment I got back to my country and I turned on the phone (after flight landed), my sim card instead of connecting as usual to my carrier could no longer register on to the carrier's network (I have signal / bars but can't register to network, hence can't use mobile data, send sms, call...). After running few tests and checks, it seems the IMEI automatically changed somehow (!!!!) from the one printed on the phone's box and phone itself and now the SIM card "rejects" the phone and can't connect (tried to insert other sim cards from other carriers but with no avail...).
Anyways, I got everything to change imei on a qualcomm chipset device (if htc sensation it were mtk it would have been way more easy) but the only thing I can't do is enable the diagnostic mode so to have the com port required to restore the IMEI... USing adb I try to reboot the phone in EDL mode so to download in it qualcomm drivers (required to enable the diag mode) but it keeps rebooting into regular android.... And my pc can't recognize the phone as necessary in order to then restore imei. Can someone please help me?
Just to make things clear: I don't want any support restoring imei (i know such threads are not allowed on xda) but just support on how to enable diagnostic mode. Please note that my phone is S-off and my bootloader is LOCKED.
Thanks
Hi,
I hope this is the right forum, otherwise mods please move this thread to right one.
Problem
Stock Nougat ROM on Infinix Note 4 Pro (x571) was upgraded to Oreo 8.1 via OTA. Device was purely stock, no rooting or custom recovery of any sort. After a few weeks from day of upgrade, device became sluggish and restarted randomly until it reached to a level were it would start and after reaching home screen, it will restart again (a boot-loop kind of thing). I factory resetted the device using stock recovery which was the starting of disaster. I ended up being stuck in "Setup Wizard" where it would go 2 steps forward then come back to "restore device or start a refresh".
Searches on Google revealed that this setup wizard problem is not device specific and only solution is to flash stock ROM. I was unable to find stock Oreo ROM but found Nougat hence using SP Flash Tool, I manage to flash it back correctly. Device finish setup smoothly and worked flawlessly until I realized I am unable to make/receive calls. I checked and re-inserted SIM, operator signals were shown correctly, rebooted many times, cleared cache, etc. but nothing worked until another set of search at Google shows that it could be because of IMEI hence I used *#06# only to find that IMEI was null (blank).
I tried to restore IMEI from the box using:
* MTK Engineering Mode tools > Connectivity > CDS as per various forums and blogs. Unfortunately, my device was did not show CDS options like many screenshots at Internet.
* After failing with MTK Engg. Mode tools, I resorted to MobileUncle Tool. Generated IMEI.bak with genuine IMEI numbers using a software file but as soon as I touched "Restore IMEI" in MobileUncle Tool, it showed error "No Support".
Only method left for trying is this one only because I don't have Windows PC/Laptop (I use Linux as daily driver). At work, I do have Windows but IT Security has disabled all USB ports so that's a difficult option.
My questions are
1. Is there any alternative for Linux users to restore IMEI? So far I am unable to find anything. Combo of Virtual Machine or Wine is not working.
2. Is it possible using ADB/Fastboot tools?
* In case answer is NO for 1 and 2, what is the success chances of MTK Droid Tools? Important to mention that I do not have any backup of first ROM I was using before upgrade, no backup of EFS or NVRAM partitions, etc.
My phone is still functioning perfectly well with all features except IMEI issue (hence no calls or sms) and this will require a big heart for me to use it as a paper weight or email assistant.
Thanks to everyone for the time in reading my TL; DR post.
No. The only legal way to fix the imei issue if flashing a full stock doesn't work is send it in and they will charge you for a new mother board.
Messing with imei is very illegal in some countries and as such banned here.
Thanks, advice is still under warranty so I will try to get it from seller (if they accept).
I've seen it all over the Internet, with the warning "DO NOT try to unlock SMT Download mode, or else your IMEI and Widevine certification will get wiped". (I assume the Widevine certification is for DRM in apps like Netflix)
I don't have a OnePlus 7 Pro yet, but it'll arrive in about a week and I'm trying to find out everything I can about the device. Plus if anyone knows anything about this, I'm sure other people are curious about it too and would like to have a search result to click on to find out more.
Is SMT Download mode some sort of super-powerful data-flashing mode used by the factory to configure devices after manufacturing? Is it possible to recover the data wiped when enabling it? What are its capabilities?

It allows you to re-flash all partitions with a qualcomm flash tool. You can start it by turning off your phone, hold the louder button and plug the phone into your pc.

no, on the phone its both the same. you just change the mode in msm download tool from "upgrade mode" to "smt mode".
This allows you to reflash all partitions, even IMEI

Ohh - so SMT mode is the super-powerful factory flashing mode? Good to know. Is it just a straight "overwrite /dev/sda with this blob" thing?

You can look after a tutorial on yt or it should be possible to flash the IMEI in smt in msm by itself. I just have the same problem and will try it out.

I was able to recover my IMEI & MEID with the help of @justencase6 ,i tried to flash my OnePlus 7 through MSM tool via SMT mode and erased NV ViP DYNAMIC PARTITION,imei is showing 0 & alert slider is not working after flashing via SMT MODE, but thanks to @justencase6 because he told me how to fix it all and i did the same and everything is working including alert slider.
CAUTION: DON'T TRY TO FLASH YOUR PHONE IN [SMT] MODE.
IF YOU FLASH YOUR PHONE IN SMT MODE THEN___
*Your IMEI & MEID will be erased
*PERSIST partition will be also erased,so your ALERT SLIDER will not work
*And Your Whole UFS will be wiped,i don't know it but it's called "UFS PROVISIONING"
*AFTER FLASHING IN SMT MODE
YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY POWER ON YOUR DEVICE THEN YOU WILL SEE THAT YOUR IMEI IS ERASED AND ALERT SLIDER IS NOT WORKING AND AMBIENT DISPLAY WILL NOT WORK ALSO
AFTER THAT I TRIED TO FLASH IMEI THROUGH [QLM IMEI WRITE TOOL]
-First of all you have to enable DIAG MODE by dialing *#801# and Enable RNDIS & DIAG PORT
-NOW install Qualcomm 9008 driver in your PC
-Then plug your phone in PC
-Open device manager and see COM PORT & LPT if it shows Qualcomm 90B6 is showing or not
-if it showing then Open the QLM IMEI WRITE TOOL & type your IMEI which is written on BOX in which phone comes
-then click WRITE,if it says PASS then reboot your Device
-Open your phone dialer and dial *#06# and you will see that your imei is restored
THIS METHOD IS NOT QUITE GOOD BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY ENABLE YOUR CALLING OPTIONS ON YOUR DEVICE AND
VOLTE WILL WORK ON ONLY ONE SIM SLOT.
YOU CAN'T RESTORE YOUR MEID BY THIS METHOD

Do not flash your device in SMT MODE UNTIL YOU HAVE ALREADY READ BACK ALL OF YOUR DEVICE PARTITIONS,IF YOU DO SO THEN YOUR IMEI WILL BE ERASED AND YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO RECOVER IT.

I did that, i purchased it from olx and its ime was changed. With the help of meid i restored original imei and did offical bootloader unlock. I was converting it to global but after installation of fastboot rom and update ota its baseband gone imei null. I restore stock and this time it has basbeand and ime but no network. Even i repaired ime but It won't. At this time i created backup of efs and persist and smt updated. Now everything is ok including finger print (restore efs and persist by twrp) but still no network. In manual it search network but won't registered. I think there was tmobile sim lock data which is wiped as my mobile was unlocked. So i recommend everyone to not use smt updated especially op8 and above.

Yeah you should use your device when its working and if you have used smt mode then your imei will be erased from the device
