i had corrupted efs partition i took it to a local repair shop they fixed it. it was rooted and downgraded to 5.1.1 and the imei was changed,..right after that i backed up my efs,flashed official 6.0.1using odin and then i flashed xtrestolite rom.but in xtresolite rom it does not shows imei while i press *#06# but it shows imei in about device/status/imei information and there is no issues like emergency call only.i tried flashing my backed up efs partition but the result was same. now the question is it fixable ? and can i restore my original imei as i am planing to sell the device.
It's just a ROM problem. If you want to sell the device, just install stock ROM.
I dunno, I have XtreStoLite and *#06# shows IMEI & S/N. Don't think it's a ROM problem. Did you ask guys at repair shop about it?

It's in the efs folder, but if you didn't made backup I don't know how to restore it, maybe in some samsung repair service with Z3 box???
If you didn't back up the efs folder.
You are DONE for. End of story.
If there's a CM7 port for Galaxy 3, you can use that to provide a temporary IMEI, but once you flash back to stock firmware the imei will disappear again.
hey,
i have 2 note2 n7105, i never make gsm worked, event restoring efs(efs bckpro or 'dd' the efs partition). imei were readable typing *#06#
i bring them to a repair center, they used a Z3 box on both. both still gave baseband error.
they told me, my custom rom (DN3) may disturb process...
so i KIES both phone without error. i tried sim card to verify, 1 read gsm network but does not connect, (normal problem)
BUT second make call and receive with imei NULL/NULL (?), by typing *#06*
how it is possible?

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!
So guys, after much roms installed now i try to check my IMEI and its diferent.
Tried flashing stock roms and nothing.
What can i do? :/
Did you flash stock firmware with odin?.
what rom did u installed? g920f or g920p?
I flashed g920p stock rom via odin and my imei was also changed. I had a backup of my imei so restored it back. now downloading g920f stock
I had same issue, gave the phone to some repair guy with Z3X, and he wrote IMEI back, tried whole bunch of online solutions, but nothing worked besides Z3X box
Im installed a custom rom (CM13 6.0) For My Galaxy J7 (SM-J700F) After that my IMEI had changed and i can't use my netword and calls again .
how i restore my old IMEI again ?!
I think if you flash the stock rom your old imei will be back
If possible Plz Find another J7 which have custom recovery and backup his efs than put it folder from his phone to ur phone In backup folder than restore it...
I think its backur network....
Note: Do it first before Flash any rom... Backup all files with twrp
Same Problem here
Hi I'm using the Galaxy J700H phone its like 2mos old, and have the exact same problem, so please can someone help? My problem is, I think also is my IMEI number? When i dialed *#06# on my phone my IMEI is 350000000006 and FTW that's not even my IMEI anymore, I have the original IMEI number here backed up but i tried everything, step by step. But sadly nothing worked out. I used this sim card in all of my phones and lastly when i wiped out my phone and flashed custom rom in it, then this happened, then i decided to flash the stock rom that has been downloaded from the sammbobile.com website, after that nothing happened. My phone always displays EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY.. pls help
Recently, motherboard on my S6 (SM-G20F) died and I had my motherboard replaced, having made a backup, accidentally, on my old motherboard, I tried to restore all the information I had to my new motheboard.
The problem started when there was a complication durning the restore process and I was forced to flash firmware (by the way, the new motherboard is from Switzerland, the guy from which I bought the motherboard is not sure who was the phone carrier, so I was forced into flashing diffirent Swizerland firmwares) and I have lost my IMEI and baseband number.
I have already tried flashing stock firmware in order to resolve the IMEI error, Octo box and similar software are not free, so, what would You suggest ?
Thanks in advance !
