[Completed][Q] How Do i Restore null/null imei - XDA Assist

I recently entered the world of rooting and roms etc and yesterday i tried to flash DN3 ROM V5 for my AT&T note 2 GT-N7100.
The flash went smoothly but after the intial set up of the rom i realised I had no mobile service, so I then checked my imei using *#06# and my imei was found to be Null/Null.
I know that this has something to do with the efs folder in my phone but i don't know how to get mobile date back on my phone.
PLEASE HELP

Well you could try flashing a fully stock rom. This has been known to help but the only sure way was to have a backup of the EFS folder. If you didnt make the proper backups then you may end up sending it back for repair.

[Completed] [q] recover imei samsung galaxy s3 gt-i9300

Hi guys, I have a samsung gt i9300 international bought it last week with android 4.1.1 stock. I upgraded it to 4.3 and then suddenly it could not perform any gsm related action like calling, texting internet etc with a NOT CONNECTED ON NETWORK error message.
I did my homework and found out that
1. the imei beneath the battery is different from the one inside the phone via #*06#
2. I have a generic imei with 00449 etc....
3. I did not backed up the efs folder and ever since I paniced and changed like 10 roms without succeeding.
4. I found out that the solution is to recover my imei
Now I have tried many ways to recover but failed. Is there a way somebody may suggest may be I have not used that one?
Thanks for your time guys I appreciate.

It's about the same issue and has some useful answers.

Seems to be a generic IMEI.
Maybe you are lucky and this guide works for you: [GUIDE] Recover your IMEI in 9 steps..
It was originally created for another Samsugn device, but works fine on various (Samsung) devices.
If not, please ask in the Galaxy Note 3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Good luck ... and make a backup next time

[Completed] Samsung Galaxy S5 not detecting SIM card!

Hi.
I have a SM-G900F Galaxy s5 which is not detecting the SIM card right now.
The mishapen occurred when I cleared the cache of my phone's NFC which was set to SIM card sharing (I can't recall doing anything else).
I have tried factory resetting and it doesn't work.
My phone is not rooted and runs an official 5.0 ROM from Samsung, with the recent 2nd firmware update from Samsung.
Someone please help..!
