Try flashing stock if doesn't work , Send it back to Samsung to fix it if you have knox ok or Look for repair place he will fix it with Octopus Box but it will not be the same imie

Have you tried to flash a stock rom and it didnt help? well... iI'm werry sorry to tell you that you need to go to a samsung work shop and run the P-5100 in a specific flash program called "IMEI flash". There is no other solution to this problem.

[Q] Is there any way to get back my IMEI?

Hey guys! I'm sorry if this is an annoying question. I have a Samsung Galaxy SL i9003.
Not to make it too long i'll summarize my problem.
I had lost my imei once and i was able to get it back with 9 steps to get your imei back thread but now it doesn't work. When i dial *#06# it's BLANK. No Numbers or 0049 just IMEI and okay button. I have a backup but copying it back to Efs didn't work. I dont have an "insane chip" It's normal as brickbug checker app says. I went to a phone shop they couldn't fix my problem with z3x and stuff like that. Samsung service center wanted 175$ for motherboard replacement so i refused that it's too much for a 2 year old device. So yeah, is there any way for me to take it back to normal? 'Cuz i can't afford a new phone and they're all very expensive in Turkey 'cuz of dumb taxes Turkey has.
Hope to find a solution. Peace out!
ps. If this is an emmc problem is there any way to do some repartition to it?
Ps. Today i've flashed DDLF2 and i saw that it rebooted to recovery and there was an error which says "Cannot mount /efs" I hope you guys can give me some tips to solve this..

You can try flashing the matching firmware via ODIN. If it doesn't help, you're probably in a bad position as I suppose you did not backup your EFS before rooting the phone.

Doesn't help as the EFS in "unique". You can't restore your own IMEI with youir friends backup. Best way is to get a local shop or internet shop that offers IMEI repair.

[Q] IMEI corrrupted

Bought a new S6 from Ebay that had been opened up to all networks. Discovered it was rooted which I didn't want so I flashed it with a stock Vodafone ROM. The phone worked fine for about 10 days then all of a sudden I got the message 'not registered on network' when I try to make call. It turns out that the IMEI number has changed. Does anyone know whether this type of problem can be sorted out?
Flash back to stock via odin.

IMEI Corrupted
I'm going to use a Vodafone ROM as this phone was originally on Vodafone before the seller had it opened up to all networks. THE ROM is G920FXXU1AOCZ_G920FVFG1AOC4_G920FXXU1AOCW_HOME.tar.md5. Does this sound like the right one? Sorry for all the questions - I'm new to this. The other thing worth mentioning is the IMEI at the moment is 350000000000006. Where could this have come from? Any ideas? It's weird because the original IMEI was in tact for about 10 days before it changed to the one above. Any help at all would be appreciated

Corrupt imei is known issue when flashing and rooted. That's why firdt thing you do when rooting, is you backup your stock rom together with efs folder. Idk which is your stock rom, you have to do some research, download that rom and use odin to go back to stock. You will lose everything you got on the phone btw so save any pictures or music.

Thanks for that. The problem I have is that there's no backup of the EFS folder or the stock ROM. Without these, is there any way of sorting this out or is the phone dead? Cheers
hi
i have same problem did you fix that if yes please help me
Bring S6 back to Samsung for repair
My guess is the phone you bought was stolen and after 10 days it got blacklisted.
Or the seller claimed he lost his phone to insurance company, sold it you, got a new one on insurance, and then after the 10 days the "lost" phone (your phone) got blacklisted.

but i checked IMEI is clean
Oh right, that's weird then! I guess efs partition could have just randomly corrupted.

I have the exact same problem, bro. All of the sudden my IMEI changed to 350000000000006 and I'm not able to register on my network. Did you manage to fix this? Please, let me know.
The same story, any help?
How I can fix this? Please help
Get Chimera tool and you should be able to fix it no problem
Did you manage to fix?
My baseband shows as attached after installing vador rom so I'm confused
If you didn't formatted/wipe the efs/nvbackup, there's a chance you can retrieve your imei.
But if it doesn't, the only way is to bring it up to Samsung or a good phone technicians to repair or get you a new branded IMEI for your phone. Mine was fixed by a technician using Octopus box tool.

Ok. I have the same problem, my IMEI is 3500000000006 and said: "someone try to flashed you phone, and is lock..... blablabla" everything is good, baseband show me the number, I did not flashed or root the phone before I got this message, its show by it self, I rooted now, was on 5.0.2, and flashed 5.1.1 thinkig to its going to help me, but Nothing, still the same, now I cant downgrade to 5.0.2. Already look diferent videos and post on internet but nothing is making work.... Any sugestions????

restoring imei

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?
