I didn't knew that flashing a custom rom will wipe the IMEI, I do not made any backup during flashing. I flashed slim rom using TWRP and I came to know that Sim Card not detected. And when I check for IMEI by dialing *#06# I got result like
IMEI: null
IMEI: null
Then, I searched in stackoverflow, and https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/help/d6633-imeinull-1-min-imei-appears-t3169108 says its possible to remake the corrupt IMEI, As this post Mr. unmaskedfalesh has mentioned that it can be done with flash tool.
Things I have tried:-
1) Relocked Bootloader and repair with Sony PC Compansion
2) Emma Firmware Update
3) Flashtool .ftf file with just ticking wipe Data, Wipe Cache and Wipe APPSLOGS
When I press unlock bootloader in flashtool MY IMEI number is showing.. && IMEI Also detecting in EMMA
Please help me.. ?Thank you in advance...

After flashing customs ROM, my phone IMEI started showing wrong IMEI number. With SN tool, I wrote the correct IMEI number. However, when I do factory reset, again the old wrong IMEI appears.
Any inputs or solution for this?

Most likely your EFS partition has been corrupted by the ROM flash. It happens with custom ROMs.
I hope for your sake you made a complete nandroid backup before messing with other ROMs than the stock one...
You can try flashing back a stock ROM, sometimes it solves the problem. You can then flash a TWRP recovery then use it to backup critical system partitions (to an external SD card preferably. Flashing custom roms often erases the internal storage), then you can start messing around.
helllo....

Hi
Quick question I was changing recovery I was on TWRP and decided to change to philz cwm I flashed it booted phone and there was no IMEI in status. I then decided to reflash TWRP which fixed my IMEI I am confused why it would do this, any info on this would be appreciated.

Bad cache partition probably. Flashign a recovery wont "break" your IMEI and teh fact that ti came back means it ws never broken but sometimes when the /cache partition goes bad, IMEI appears to be lost. Usually formatting or fastboot flashign cache.img fixes that

I too have the same issue. I've reverted everything back to stock, flashed cache.img, flashed latest stock image directly from Google, and still 0 for IMEI. Nothing seems to fix this.
Hey guys. Is there any way I can tell if my phone's efs is corrupt?
Thanks!
Not really. What are your symptoms / why are you asking?
Well my Sim gets recognized but I can't call anyone and it says that the phone is in airplane mode. Also I can't change the preferred network type and it stays on LTE/GSM (PRL)
Rooted or not?
Yup, rooted
When you do anything in recovery do you get any errors about persist?
No, I don't think so
Have you tried to wipe / flash stock cache image?
How do I do that?
Recovery / fastboot
Well I've tried to flash to stock, when I flashed stock KitKat the imei would show incorrect but I could turn on the radio, but now with lollipop the imei is correct but the radio can't be turned on
Wipe cache from recovery
Just did it and nothing changed
Dunno then. Can only really suggest flashing back to stock kk again and if the same as before, contact lg support.
OK thanks anyways!
