Huawei e5776 imei

I have a very weird problem with this device.
Recently bought one off another person. I tried to flash it but the flash code is wrong.
After reading that the flash code should not be wrong and derived from the imei, i realize it is highly possble that the imei on the back may not be the imei of the mobo itself. Would like to ask if anyone knows how to check the imei of the device via any software?

[Q] IMEI changed??

When I enter *#06# in the dialer the IMEI is different than the one in the settings. I restored my EFS and it's still the same
I dunno what to do at this point, how do I change it back?
Never mind. Can the mods delete this thread? *#06# shows my MEID not my IMEI, I feel stupid now.

Unknown baseband, null imei number and deleted efs files

I am in need of some help. I have a galaxy s7 that the efs files have been deleted, therefore, it wont connect to any network as well as unknown base band. when i type in *#06# mt imei number is null (all zeros). I have tried flashing stock firmware onto the device but that doesnt help. I dont know which combination binary software to install because i dont know the correct pda for the device. i am looking for any help to fix this problem.
note: i have another s7 with all the files i think i need, is there anyway to swap the files into the toher device and have it generate its original imei number ?

You need a backup of the efs folder of that device. If you never did one using a custom recovery like TWRP you are doomed. I believe that there are boxes like the Octopus one that, if you know the imei of the device they can flash that partition/folder and assign the device its imei once again. I don't know if the official service will be willing or able to fix the imei issue, I would suggest reaching out to them and ask.
