Dear friends
I used lg updater but after that I lost the signal
When I checked *#06# it didn't show me the imei
When I go to about imei it show 0
I searched the problem on 3d I didn't found any one have this problem
But I found some 2x have it and they solve it by baseband flashing
So did any one have the same problem before and how dix you solve it ?
Thank you all

You should see the IMEI under Settings -> About Phone -> Status
Att flashed kz with lg update
I am having the same issues as you guys.. I flashed the KZ file with lg update software as explained in the XDA thread but I could not get the process to work right. My phone kept disconnecting at 28% and it would not turn on no matter what I did. It would only make a short vibrate as if it was turning on, and the computer would notice it but only for a short time. And never once did a light on the screen, or LG logo, or anything at all ever appear.
I figured I had really screwed it up, but when I plugged it into the wall it booted up perfectly. All my data was in tact and the rom i had flashed through cwm was still there, not the kdz file that I flashed with the lg software.. I noticed that my sim card did not come up as being in the phone at all. I looked in system setting status and noticed that all info related to my imei said unknown. I opened up the mfg app (277634#*# from the phone app).. Under "version info" then "factory version" my phone now says xmm6260.. It always used to say p925..etc... Even after flashing the zip to debrand from at&t this never changed from p925 even when every other aspect of my phone has.. I was hoping maybe once I put in an activated sim card everything would be fine and my phone would be unlocked which is why i flashed through lg software.. But seeing as how other people are having this similar issue and their phones not seeing the sim card, well im looking for some advice.. Should I try and re flash kdz file through lg software again? if i do, im going to do it on my XP computer this time, not Windows 7..
Just wanted to add that I did try wiping data and cache from cm and no dice.. Root and CMW work fine but no matter what I do, if my phone is turned off, i cannot boot up or boot to cwm or boot at all unless i plug the phone into a wall carger and then once its on it stays on and i can unlug.. SORRY ABOUT THE LONG POST, THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP..
Hello, I am having the same problemws as you.. Have you found anything out yet? I'm trying to get some answers.. Did you try re flashing kdz with lg update?

Hi guys
I'm getting exactly the same thing aswell!! I wonder what the problem could be? I can boot the phone up if I plug it into the wall charger, but have no signal at all.
Anybody got a solution, please?

No IMEI/GSM Radio
Im having same problem, has anyone found a solution?
Im attaching some screen shots of the errors I get.
Thanks
imei missing
Is there any soltion? Please.
Reflash the phone.
Take out battery. hold down the up key, plug in cable to computer.
Wait till it installs or activates the necessary drivers. eg usb protocol etc.
Then run the recovery via lg tool by entering your imei number in the application.
This will install the latest stock version based on your imei (including baseband)

Thanks, I tried but it did not work.
I tried everything possible. KDZ flashed about 20 times. Flashed bin and fls files many times. I do not know what more to try. When I put androuid 2.2 After a while the cell phone turned on appears IMEI and IMESV, but disappeared again after reboot.
I put the phone in the CP - USB (3845#*920# port settings cp-usb) mode and I connect with hyper terminal when I type AT%IMEI my modem gives me IMEI. When I type AT%IMEI=? back to me is: [IMEI part1 [7] + IMEI part2 [8]] but I do not know how to write it. I tried all possible combinations and I still write IMEI write error. (AT%IMEI=xxxxxxxx + xxxxxxx AT%IMEI= x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, ......) I found [LGFlash Tool 1.0]LGP920_20120213_Download_WriteIMEI.dll at the CSMG server and I tried with LG flash tool so that instead of stock dll I put this dll but it failed. It gives me an error not read IMEI. There may be a BIN file that is used whit it??? Here's the dll if anyone wants to try.
All this hapend after simple reboot. I found service manual for LG internal use it says that this could happen becouse of fault in firmware, and that after write IMEI firmware should be updated to V21A to prevent this to happen. So some early firmware cause it.
I dont have warranty.
sorry for bad english.
Interesting.
When you run the official recovery tool and it asks you to enter your Imei, does it go ahead with the process and fully complete 100% with the flashing?
Do the problems then still occur? If you can get your phone to turn on at anytime, have you tried a full factory reset after that?

Yes it completes at 100% everything is ok I can turn it on, off, go into recovery and everything. Device is working perfect but android cant see IMEI, that is writen in eeprom. I tried factory reset numeros times, no help. When i start lgupdate official tool, tool also reads correct IMEI from device.
Seems an issue with the baseband updating/corrupted, although the lg tool flash recovery should have updated this as well. Have you tried the other flash methods (try one of the kdz roms in this forum. eg v21a for europe gingerbread) and use this flashing method (you would need to block the lg updater from accessing the net) There is a tutorial on this in this forum. it works via forcing a rom update and redirecting it into the lg flash program

I did that metod too. There is any metod here on this forum that I didnt try. Thanks for help. I dont know is it baseband or CP chip problem.
This may be guesswork, but if the baseband is flashed in a specific area of the phones nand space, perhaps the nand blocks there are corrupt which causes it to fail. Perhaps with some additional tools, it may be possible to format this area, marking the bad blocks as bad preventing the baseband data from writing to these area's. Just guesswork here.
Have you tried flashing other baseband versions seperately

Hi,

hyperterminal seems to be working for most of the optimus models but doesn't work with p920. I tried all the port settings and everytime got "IMEI WRITE ERROR" message.
any new suggestion?
Can any give me a EFS folder ? or IMEI backup file ?
Or ROM backup ?
Model - LG optimus P920

So.. EFS folder contain the IMEI of the phone, so I do not think s.b. want to give his own IMEI to s.b. else
Better tell us what is the problem you have and how you get this problem.

After some accident my phone got bricked. and i try every thing to fix it.
after few tries i manage to install CWMR and after that i install CM rom. but i can't install any rom beside that. If i try it will stuck on LG logo.
And My efs folder is gone and no backup.
to do this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=27912354 ) i need to go to Stock rom. But because of that Logo thing i can't do that.
And one more thing This is the worst phone i ever seen.. And It bricked when restarting. I lost my IMEI in SGS and in SGS2 within 2hr i got my correct IMEI without any problem.
If any one can give me a correct EFS folder I can give my phone IMEI and S/N to create it.

Follow THIS guide STEP by STEP. You will restore your phone, IMEI, etc... It is LONG but good.... there is many other guides that you can use too like THIS one that is more easy and fast. They will restore all. After that you can install some custom ICS rom
Hi guys
recently bought a s6 from ebay which was frozen on S6 logo. Basically managed to clear cache and factory reset from recovery but that didn't work, anyway I DL the O2 firmware and odin and put it into download mode I get a fail on odin when trying to install the rom
The phone has knox 1 and also has red writing SW Rev. Check Fail. Device: 3 Binary: 1.
I'm unsure what to do and if theres any chance for me to recover.
Many thanks
Mav
it failed because you flashed an incompatible Firmware.
where did it stopped flashing in odin? In sboot.bin?
If thats the case, you need to download proper firmware/country for your device.
Let me know what country is ur fone made of.
Hi thanks for your reply.
I managed to get it working by installing root and unikernel, it boots into O2 the firmwarw is 5.1.1
Only problem now is imei is 3500000000006
And it wont make calls dont know if imei is corrupt ir they sold me a stolen or lost phone?
I may install tw recovery and custom rom and see if that works.
Any suggestions?
Hi
Ive managed to sort out and get it to work infact typing on it now. Its currently rooted custom rom and twrp. I e managed also to restore original imei number so overall im quite pleased with myslef lol.
Anyway one last problem i have is ive tried all sims but none work i know ita picking up signal as the bar shows top right. Also chexk my settings.
Ive tried automatically and manually going to register networks but it says unable to connect try again later. I know uts not my area as my wifes s6 works perfectly. Sim also def works. The phone also picks up when a new sim has been inserted so i dont think its sim slot.
Any ideas guys
OK new update if anyone can help I'd really appreciate.
Installed new vador rom Imei reverted back and serial number is all zeros
Is this something to do with baseband if so how can I fix read somewhere about ariza patch but that was s3 4 etc.
Thanks
Mav
1. Your EFS is corrupted. The IMEI you see is a generic one, phone will be useless for network provider only wifi will work.
2. The one thing that caused this is by flashing an old bootloader to your phone. Thats why youve encountered Check Fail error on Download mode.
Happened to me also but got it fixed in the end.
OK thanks for the info how do I fix? I do have my wife's s6 but that's not rooted and don't want to root can I restore the efs
Many thanks
Mav

I think I know one thread that has a firmware downloader with ultra fast download speed you may try searching it.
I dont know if it will help, but you may be able to successfully flash the firmware but many of those who have problems were unable to boot the phone due to corrupted efs data.
Here's my way of fixing it (if you still have intact efs). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63693480&postcount=28
But if its already wiped, there's no way you can retrieve it unless bringing it to samsung or any repair shop.
Anyways, mine was fixed (IMEI) using Octopus box repair tool. Since I cant do anything to recover my generic imei.

Thanks silly question but how do I know if my efs is ok or corrupted?
at the moment the phone works perfect it is rooted, twrp recovery and vador rom but it just wont connect to networks. I know its not stolen or lost.

As far as i know if your EFS partition is corrupt and you do not have a back up of the EFS partition to restore which you probably dont as you bought this as broken then sim capability is dead, im not sure of any other way to fix this unless you have the intact efs partition
Hi
How can I tell if the efs is corrupt it shows a baseband it now shows the correct ime I
It just won't connect to network it says try again.
I can post a screen print of efs folder on es Explorer if anyone knows what it should look like
Here are screen prints but I think I'm speaking to myself lol
Hi there i spent months on fixing issues like this (i now have a tool that takes care of all this) , best thing you can do is flash to a rom where the original imei came back do a backup of the efs, flash to a orginal rom ( latest rom) make sure its the right one for your device, connect to kies, install the rom again root and restore the efs failing that the imei is blocked use checkmend.com the uk version if your from the uk, message me if you need help

Your rom, recovery and kernel doesnt have to do with corrupted efs.
Only way is to bring it to repair service using box tools to re enter/validate your imei so that you can connect to your network provider. There is no other way around other than retrieving your efs and installing it or thru repair service.
You may now relax yourself at finding ways to connect, I assure it wont help trying to flash and flash and flash stuff to your phone.

Uhm can you send sms or make calls? It seems you have a valid Imei
Ok ive tried all stock roms including o2 and a uk btu one but no luck they all do the same thing get frozen on Samsung logo then I flash unikernel and it boots.
When checking my efs folder I can see no modem file I'm now wondering could that be the fault? so I downloaded modem and BL for 5.02 and 5.11 both will not flash via odin I get a fail message and on device check fail device: 3 binary: 1 messgage in red?????.
So I'm a little lost, I was wondering if I managed to root my wifes s6 which is virtually new could I back up her efs folder then copy it into mine and just amend the imei to my original would that work? also is there a way of rooting my wifes phone without triggering knox?
Any other suggestions guys I really don't know what bootloader was on it to start with or rom is there any way for me to find this out?, also another weird thing when the o2 uk roms install they install german apps?
Thanks guys
Ive repaired EFS Partitions with scripts downloaded from links at xda.
For example i trashed my EFS partition on my note 3 so it caused hard reboots after android booted up and it couldnt be fixed with anything else than the EFS partition repair scripts.
Edit: friend repaired his Note 4 also.
Thanks but where can I find these scripts as I've looked everywhere and if I did find how do I go about doing it. At the moment when I try to flash modem and bootloader it fails.

Hi guys,
I have no signal, and my radio is off. I figure my QCN or Modem was corrupted during a factory reset, as it happened after a factory reset. I am on the indian ROM ZUI 2.0.111 ST.
So either my modem is corrupt or my QCN is corrupt or both, could someone backup theirs and give me a copy QCN so i can fix mine and flash it to my phone. and or provide me with a modem file and instructions to flash it only.
Instructions for backing up your QCN are in my thread on ZukFans.eu here this is a good idea even if you don't feel like helping me out.
I have already tried flashing stock roms
2.1.059ST_root_xposed flashing with TWRP
ZUI_2.0.069_ST with QPST & MiFlash
ZUI_2.0.093_ST with QPST & MiFlash
But none of that helped so either my modem is fine or those ROMs do not contain a modem, i'm not sure how to tell.
If you can help at all, if i am doing the wrong things to fix it or could try something else please tell me, I've been trying for days to fix this and i really need to get my radio working again so i can call and what not.
desperately trying to un brick my note 5. I've been trying for weeks now to recover my phone after a rooting mishap had caused loss of imei and baseband. in the process of attempting to repair that issue I have managed to completely soft brick the damn thing. I have been to the deepest corners of google in search of this specific 4 file repair download and can not find anything that is free. I've even signed up for accounts on gsm flash and the like only to be disappointed that signing up wasn't enough to get the files I need... if anyone has a link or the files themselves I would be very thankful for there help. to be clear I can not flash standard stock rom through Odin. the process completes and the phone boots but than erases at 32 percent and will only boot to recovery with dm verity error or download mode. I've tried a few different official stock roms. I've tried flashing the one file home.tar as well as un packing and flashing boot, system, modem, cache neither of which have worked. I can't find a hidden image file to remove before flashing so unless I'm missing something im out of ideas.. the repair. firmware seems to be my last hope... also to hell out anyone trying to assist. I flashed a. efs file when trying to restore imei and that in turn re enabled frp lock.. so I believe both frp lock and oem lock are enabled. so any combination file or modified at all is out of the question... I believe it's repair or nothing. there are a few free 4 file repair downloads out there but they aren't the same number im not sure if there are any compatible enough that I could flash one of them and they work? so if any one knows of other models compatible. with the SM-N920TUVU4EQJ3 let me know so I can try to get this mess sorted out. I apologize if this has been asked somewhere els or if I'm in the wrong forum. but this seemed the most suited for my case. thank you to anyone who may be able to help

Hi I had the same issue with my note 5 SM-N920T I managed to fix it by downloading a pre rooted with SU rom from xda I also had the twrp custom bootloader installed first for some reason my pc still picked up my phone and I was still able to upload the rom to the twrp location on the device. having done that I was the able to copy the zip file over to my device and flash it.
When I had the rom installed I was then able to download the original android rom (android 5 in my case) from sam mobile they also had the most up-to-date android 7 rom as well for the device then it was just a case of using android repair to un root the bootloader and install the original android bootloader this was also on sam mobile.
Then make sure the phone has a full battery as flash the stock firmware as you would normally with odin and have the latest Samsung drivers installed on yore system or it will fail.
After the flash has taken place the first boot will take some time my note 5 took around 45 min's and then when fully back up and running I had to spend a good 2 hours reinstalling and updating all my software and OTA updates.
