Hello Guys,
I have been through a lot of threads as i corrupted my GT-N8000 efs Folder (Unable to mount efs (bad Argument) and lost my IMEI Number and after a lot of reading i finally restored my Tablet and got a new efs mounted and my tablet came back to life
but now i am not able to make or receive any calls and after reading a lot of threads i understood that i am having a fake IMEI Number that is starting with (00499................)
can anyone guide me a step by step how can i fix this issue as i do not have any backups from my old IMEI ? but i can tell that i have it written on the original box of my Tablet so the number is there but i don't know how to insert it and get back my Phone function again for my tablet
any help ?
anyone can help here

Seems to be a similar issue like here: [Q]Null Imei, Baseband Unknown N7105 by Emprt.
With a "broken" EFS partition.
Check this thread: Baseband Unknown and IMEI Null NOW WORKING by karlonicolas.
Maybe this will work in your case too.
Sometimes reflashing the modem/baseband can help to get back the correct IMEI.
And for the next time, please backup your EFS partition like described here: [WARNING! + GUIDE] Backup and Restore IMEI / NV Data Procedure for GT-I9305 by lyriquidperfection.
Good luck !
Thread closed. Thank you!
Hi guys my friend bought a cheap very old used mediatek android phone (micromax a064) few days ago. it was getting alot of app not responding errors so we decided to flash stock rom. after that im getting invalid imei error. when I checked imei behind the phone its not clearly visible the paint has came off I can only read it partially . so my questions are
is there any way I can regenerate the IMEI number of the phone?
or is there any bar code reader that can read damaged imei barcode?
and before flashing I was using mtkdroidtool so that I could backup IMEI number but i got buzy with something and in a hurry never clicked on back up button. but I remember that it showed me IMEI number does it store temporary info somewhere on the pc ?
So I have 2 phones (both S7e), but one lost its IMEI / having "can't mount /efs" problem. This phone unluckily doesn't have a back up of its own EFS / IMEI digitally, but it still has the phone sticker that has its associated IMEI. Now, my plan was to TWRP restore a backup from the working phone to the unusable one so that I can fix the EFS problem and right after, "edit" the IMEI number to what it's supposed to according to the sticker left on the phone.
My questions are:
1) is this possible?
2) if so, can someone help me find out the proper steps/tools to help me change the IMEI on the 2nd phone with the temporarily duplicated IMEI
3) any tips on making sure I don't have both phones running and get blacklisted for having 2 phones with the same IMEI on i was thinking just to leave both phones on airplane mode or at the very least, turn off the first phone until I get the second phone working
