Can't recover IMEI using Tutty/Putty/Hyperterminal

Hi there!
I bricked my p920 a week ago while trying to flash the ported 3D-ICS rom from xbsall. I don't really know what I did wrong, but somehow I destroyed my bootloader.
However, using the "p920 resurrection guide" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942836), I was able to boot my phone again and to restore my nandroid backup, so that I'm back to stock-GB now (rooted, CWM installed).
Everything works fine, except that my phone does not find any network and has no IMEI anymore (yes, I know, these two symptoms are connected )
I tried to recover my IMEI using this guide here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734330), but I always get stuck at point 9 of the instructions (trying to type in the original IMEI using Tutty).
So far, everything goes according to the guide. I connected Tutty with my phone using COM-port 3 (the only port available in Tutty) and when I type "AT" in Tutty, the expected "OK" comes as a response.
But when I try to type "at%imei", the only response I get is "ERROR" and no dummy-IMEI shows up.
By accident I also typed "atimei" one time, the response I got was "56000 56000 OK".
...later today I'll add a screenshot with my latest Tutty-session...

}
So, what am I doing wrong? So far I tried all that with two different Win7(64bit) PCs and via a virtual PC running on WinXP (32bit). All drivers for my phone, Omap and Infineon are installed (Edit: at my last try yesterday, the Infineon-driver didn't seem to work. After starting CP-download mode my PC gave an error, stating it wasn't able to install drivers.)
I also tried to use Putty and Hyperterminal instead of Tutty, but with the exact same results.
Any ideas?
Bye
a noob with an O3D

I was in the same boat as you but i flashed v10k kdz file with lg b2capp and my Imei was restored.
Hope this helps

Yup..just flash kdz file and your problem will gone
Use This Tuts

Fixed it!
Good news!
I fixed my problem.
Thanks for your suggestions about flashing a kdz, but I fixed it another way, because I wasn't able to find a functional download link for any kdz-file. o,O
So here is my solution:
I think my problem was, that I backed up my system with my original nandroid-backup too early.
I repeated the whole "resurrection guide"-procedure and let the V21E stock OS installed, in this OS I had no problems fixing my IMEI using Tutty,
Afterwards I then just booted into CWM and flashed my nandroid-backup from before this whole s**t.
I thank all of you on this wonderful forum, special thanks to all the devs for their life-saving guides!

The picture isnt showing....
But ur recovery may need to be updated.
Can u flash one of ur backups?
If so, boot up and update ur recovery.
Then just make sure u have correct ROM version for ur phone.
I hope that helps.

There I fixed the picture, but no I cant flash any of my backups because I deleted them for some reason some earlier backup was not working and the second one I delete it by accident. And the roms form my cell I have been getting the right ones from nexusshacks.com and cyanogen website. I was thinking in something more like pushing the rom thru a computers comand prompt thast my next step.

I found some tutorial in order to push the rom with command prompt but it's not working neither. does any of you know why not or if I'm doing something wrong here the link of the tutorial and at the end I posted whats what the command prompt came up with. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667929

Do you consider updating your recovery and rom?

My next step will be using the odin called tool for restoring everything. I'll let you know how it goes.

Returning to stock issues (Cannot Generate Image?)

Hi, I've noticed every time I try return back to stock using the factory image and running Flashall.bat that everything flashes fine until the last part where it says cannot generate image, failed <>, I'm assuming it’s because there's not enough space? As it states that in the command prompt screen. (Please see image attached). I have always returned to stock this way and have never seen this issue before, can anyone shed some light on this?

Is the data partition. What happens when you boot up? What does the storage menu show? Anything odd?

No it boots fine and storage looks good as well, but I've noticed that it gets really laggy sometimes and have had to do a forced reboot to sort a few system locks. I was putting th issues down to the supposed memory leaks that are still happening?

Odd then. Maybe just an issue with factory zip. Some of them just don't work for some people. I always prefer to individually flash images using fastboot.
As for this memory leak, I've never had it. I've never even seen any evidence to suggest such a bug exists except for people saying they have a memory leak.

Baffled to what the issue is I've noticed there is a few people with this issue, hope someone has reported to google the issue, of not I'll submit a bug report about it.

I too had the same problem. Do a factory reset and it'll be fine.

ME too
When i install a new rom sometimes my storage shows 13gb out of 16gb whereas mine is 32gb i had to factory reset my phone.Think there's some memory overlap of some sort

Have you also tried to delete the "dalvik cache"?
Also try to delete your "system" before flashing a new ROM.
And don't forget: the internal storage will not be deleted maybe you have some music and some other stuff left there?

Ohh.. I am sorry that it didn't work for you. Might just be some other case. Maybe some expert will come and help you. Sorry that I couldn't help you. Maybe try Cyber's method.

MT7-L09: Phone Unlocked BUT command not allowed when flashing

Hi,
I never saw this problem
My phone is unlocked (since a year more or less) and I can't install TWRP nor CWM. I tried many tutorials such as all the root methods listed on XDA for this smartphone.

There might be a problem with your drivers. You can try uninstalling and reinstalling them. Also, try using fastboot commands manually
Sent from my Mate

unlock again

Thank you. I'd like not to have to relock it as it's already done and rooted. Could you please tell me what drivers to install? I tested many of them (https://i.imgur.com/wBgsezr.png) but it seems I don't have the right ones then.
I'm using Win7 64bits.
Thanks again!

Use adbdriveinstaler and when it's install you can push recovery to add folder and try this command
cd C:/adb
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Change name your twrp or cwm to recovery
Send frome globe

Okay. Here we go
ADB driver installed (https://i.imgur.com/PWrZoHH.png)
Went to flash and... still not allowed.
And in fastboot/rescue mode on my phone it's written PHONE Unlocked.
WTF
BTW, is there any other way to upgrade the phone? Cause every time I go to the software update in the menu i'm told it's up-to-date, but it's not... Android 4.4.2 & EMUI 3.0.
I read about a "local update" but can't find out how to update from the SDcard, I only have OTA.
