MTK device IMEI null or invalid solution - Android General

install MTKEngineerMode app
Select Engineer Mode.
Select Engineer Mode MTK.
Select CDS Information from the Connectivity tab.
Select Radio Information.
Select the SIM you wish to change the IMEI on.
At the AT+ line for SIM 1, enter AT+EGMR=1,7,”THE-FIRST-IMEI-NUMBER”. For SIM 2, enter AT+EGMR=1,10,”THE-SECOND-IMEI-NUMBER”. Of course where the words are, you will enter a number.
NOTE: Do not forget the quotes surrounding the number
NOTE: If you get an error regarding “this command not allowed in user build”, then put a space after AT, so it reads for example AT +EGMR=1,7,”THE-IMEI-NUMBER”

There are so many reason to occur the issue you mentioned
1) Virus/ malware infection
2) Contact database corrupted
3) Due to 3rd party application which share your address book such as Viber, line ets..
4) Sim card contact memory location having issue with data filed
5) recently you imported contact complicating or address book limit exceeded
Simply you can reset the device and most probably fault will be fixed but before reset the phone make sure all contact backup to the your google account.
Hope this answer help you!

No permanent solution
It requires root. Also it's not permanent solution. After performing hard reset, imei are erased again. So give permanent solution.
I used Maui meta to recover my imei you guys could also try sn writer

Thank you very much (an original author and you)! Really.
( AT+ EGMR=1,7,"IMEI_1 NUMBER HERE" worked for Phone 1 and AT+ EGMR=1,10,"IMEI_1+8 NUMBER HERE" for Phone 2 ( IMEI1 + 8 ) )
Btw, a command *#06# shows two same IMEIs, but SIMs and dialling works. Is that okay?
What happens when I dont have my imei number
What happens I.don't have my original imei number
Dailing the 06 thing says invalid IMEi
The sticker on which the IMEI.number was is so faded I cant make out jack.....
The box is gone

How to Fix Invalid IMEI Problem of a MediaTek Android Phone

Usually Invalid IMEI error occurs after you flash your MediaTek device. No need to worry as there is a simple fix for this issue. No need of root privileges on either method.
Method 1: (Works even if your phone a single error of Invalid IMEI or both if you have a dual sim)
1. Open dialpad and input *#06# (If a single sim is working you can see an IMEI and another is invalid, you can find invalid IMEI under battery of your phone)
2. Copy IMEI number.
3. If no sim is working you can find those numbers just below your phone battery.
4. Open mobile uncle, click engineer mode and chose android or mtk.
5. Go to connectivity, CDS Information, then radio information and chose the sim that isn't working, either one or two.
6. For sim 1 press phone 1, Click on AT+ on the top and type these AT+EGMR=1,7,"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"..... Here "XX.....X" is your IMEI number. Type it (make sure its in quotes). Now click send then reboot.
7. If invalid sim is sim 2 then click phone 2 and type AT+EGMR=1,10,"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" , click send then reboot.
Method 2:
Dial “* # * # 3646633 # * # * 2- then follow that path –> CDS info –> Radio info –> Phone1 (for the first imei) 3- at the top there is a command line which begins “AT+” just type there “AT +EGMR=1,7,”IMEI_1? (instead of IMEI_1 put your first imei number) 4- hit send command 5-if you done just reboot the phone, if you change the second imei go to step 2 and select “Phone2? 6-and enter the code “AT +EGMR=1,10,”IMEI_2? (instead of IMEI_2 put your second imei number) hit send command 7-reboot 8-Dail ” *#06#” Check Imei(onlyshow the first one)

Thanks this helped me to restore the imei on my phone
Cds information didn't occur
I've got info for first time: "This command is not allowed in UserBuild" because my ERGO A500 add by himself this AT+ command without space
Then I made some research and it's important to add SPACE between AT and + so it must be AT + not just AT+ like exactly like @subodhpoudyal wrote above

The best tool for fixing Invalid IMEI in MTK devices is Maui META. Google it.
When it is installed connect your device (make sure you have the correct USB drivers and debugging enabled in developer options)
The tool works on your phone whilst the device is in META mode.
There are many guides online on how to use it,
It works better than anything else and it is incredibly user friendly,
Rumble_Fish
The Engineering mode method doesn't work on all phones. Tools like SN Writer, Maui Meta and hardware boxes / dongles (e.g Infinity CM2, Miracle box, NCK box etc) would prove more reliable. You can read up mod edit - blog links removed for many other methods
i have a problem
now i have a problem i flashed my phone lenovo a7010 and i've invalid imei and when i enter the engineering mtk mode there is no cds information option i tried alot and no solution

Installing custom ROM on Lenovo A916 + Youtube fix + dual sim activating + IMEI fix

There are 4 parts to this post (since they are related, I put all of them here, not on separate threads / posts):
-Rom installing guide
-Fix youtube error on Android 4.2
-Activate dual SIM
-Fix missing IMEI-number(s)
ROM-installing guide
Purpose for installing this ROM is that depenging on the purchase place, there can be spyware and such on the phone. Some other modifications are there also, but I do not know what they are. Well, at least this ROM works pretty fast (at least after I uninstalled some useless software with root access).
Original ROM build version on my phone was A916_USR_S1205_141013
This new ROM is Android version 4.4.2 (Build: A916_S206-141125_baralajbi), and this is rooted already. I also found S207 ROM, but it would not install. This ROM is multilingual, of course.
Written guide source is here: http://www.needrom.com/download/lenovo-a916-multilang-root-gapps/
And video guide source here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzyYXAflmOk
Firstly you need to register and login to www.needrom.com or you will not be able to download these files.
Download "MT_6592_SP Flash Tool v5.1352.01"
http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/MT_6592_SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1352.01.zip
Download "MTK_USB VCOM Driver"
http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/MTK_USB-VCOM-Driver.zip
Download "LenovoUSBDriver"
http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/LenovoUSBDriver.rar
Download "A916_USR_S206_baralajbi" (This is the new ROM / Firmware)
http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/A916_USR_S206_baralajbi.zip
AND do the following (some of these might be in the wrong order, did the best I could):
1. Extract all the downloaded packages in to own folders.
2. Prepare your phone, and set USB DEBUGGING on:
Go to: Settings --> developer options --> usb debugging >tick<
OR if the setting is not present, go to: Settings --> about phone --> baseband version {tap this line 7 times}, come back out to settings --> developer options --> usb debugging >tick<
3. If you are paranoid, or using this guide to another model phone, backup your IMEI (this install has been tested on A916, and it does not temper with either of two IMEI, IF done correctly). This MIGHT require root, not sure. There are plenty of softwares to backup those. At LEAST write them down somewhere!
4. Turn off your phone, remove the battery, remove usb-cord (if any).
5. Install the VCOM driver if you don't have this before. Go to windows Device manager, select ANYTHING from the list, select from top drop down menu "action" and "Add Legacy Hardware" (this happens at 4:53 in the video), Select the following: Next --> Install hardware manually --> Next --> Next --> Have disk, now search the correct driver from where you extracted the VCOM-drivers
6. Install lenovo usb driver from where you extracted it (LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.0.8.exe). When program asks, remove the phone from usb-cable (if for some reason it is connected)
7. Go to Flash Tool folder, then RIGHT-Click on Flash_tool.exe (choose, run as administrator)
-With Flashtool select "scatter loading"-option, and point it to the "MT6592_Android_scatter.txt" from where you extracted the contents of rom package.
-Wait file to be added into Flash Tool, a long list opens below.
-Open from top drop down menu: Options --> Options --> Download / and select "DA DL All with Checksum" -option.
-Choose "Firmware Upgrade" (OR "Download only"), CAUTION! Do NOT use "Format All + Download", because you will lose the IMEI!!!
-Press Download-button when ready and AFTER pressing that connect the phone (without battery)! -->The process will start and a red progress bar will appear. It will turn yellow, grey and green. When popup appears that says "OK", just click on the X to close that window.
-You have finished.
-You can now safely disconnect your phone, insert battery and turn it on.
-The first boot can take about 1-2 mins
*******************************************
To make Youtube work
First test does it work, dah.
(You have to be root, and this above ROM-image is rooted already)
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948558
We must make the phone "think" it is 5.0 Lollipop, doing this is quite easy. Do the following.
1. Install ES Explorer.
2. Once downloaded and installed, Open the application and hit Menu, then tap "Settings", this will bring you to the apps Settings Menu. Once in the Settings Menu, scroll all the way down to Root Settings. In Root Settings, "check" Root Explorer (and "Mount File System" if available)
3. We look for the folder /system/build.prop
4. Open the file publisher build.prop
5. Find line:
ro.build.version.release = 4.4.2
and change to
ro.build.version.release = 5.0
6. Save the change.
7. Reboot phone
Now you can check it if it worked going to system settings --> Information about phone (or similar) --> Device information. It should say Android version 5.0, and youtube should be working. Someone said that now you can also install more apps for this phone after "upgrade" to 5.0.
*******************************************
Dual SIM-standby
If problems with dual SIM stanby (only one SIM is in standby), do the following:
WARNING:
This warning does NOT consern you, IF you made clean install, I am pretty sure some security program (avast?) screwed my phone, still, read on:
I tested and this activates dual sim, BUT after doing this and rebooting, phone asks "privacy protection password". I have no clue what this could be, since I have not set any. I have not found a way to skip this verification, even installing fresh ROM does not help, ONLY thing that helps is to format the phone from the software, and then install new ROM. By doing this, IMEI, phone serial and some MAC-addresses got lost. However, if you have the box still available (or on the back of the phone, under battery is a sticker), you can restore IMEI-number. There are also several apps, that will make backups of these, I would recommend several backups with different programs BEFORE activating dual SIM standby! As said before, at least write them down.
Activating dual SIM standby:
Activation steps (Read warning above, this is best to do for phones that have no installed external security programs!):
1. Make sure you have USB-debugging on, or you might get bricked phone, if anything goes wrong (unable to reflash without it on)!
2. Input *#*#5448264#*#* on the dialpad
3. A916 will automatically restart then
4. Setting --> SIM management --> Single Standby Settings --> select "Sim 1 And SIM 2"
5. Reboot phone
6. Dual SIM card / dual standby SHOULD be available!
If you have no success, check that both your SIMS are correctly inserted and there is selected both sims in the settings.
**************************
Change IMEI
If you for some reason partially bricked phone and lost IMEI, here is an guide for fixing that:
Sources:
Here is how to video --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewRaziVtBLk
And here is how to website --> http://bernardosbagofbeans.com/2014/12/restoring-imei-lenovo-tab-a7-30-a3300hv.html
Short summary for IMEI change:
Service mode, input to dialpad:
*#*#3646633#*#*
NOTE: On this A916 phone (it seems that) the IMEI 1 and IMEI 2 can NOT be the same number! Use some random generator for second one, first one is on the box and under the battery.
Setting first IMEI:
Connectivity --> CDS Information --> Radio information --> Phone 1
AT+ EGMR=1,7,”IMEI_1"
Setting second IMEI:
Connectivity --> CDS Information --> Radio information --> Phone 2
AT+ EGMR=1,10,”IMEI_2"
If lost, replace blank bluetooth, WIFI and IP-Mac adresses (and some other maybe):
Install "Device id IMEI changer Exposed" -app, and use it. It will NOT change IMEI, check it out, easy to use. You might be okay without this also.
To insert phone serial number I have no success yet. Serial number is found on the box and behind the phone battery. This phone has MediaTek MT6592-chipset, if that helps googling. I am interested about how to do that, if anyone can. There is place for SN and PN-numbers, no idea what PN-number should be, SN seems to be at the back of the phone.
In /sys/class/android_usb/android0/iSerial there is phone serial, but if I get it correctly, the operating system just writes there at boot what is in the phone firmware. Changing this, does not help, it is just overwritten over at next boot. Android system info does not show this serial, but for example "my id"-app shows it correctly. And it is still different from the original serial.
Is there a recovery like TWRP or CWM for it?
There is a link in needrom guide (~ 7 megs) --> http://www.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/CWM_recovery1.im
No idea what to do with it
