Hello, my phone was stolen and I can't manage to find the box to look for the IMEI and transmit it to the police.
I have an Imei backup on my laptop, and also a full android backup.
Is there a way to extract the IMEI number?

i have a samsung sgh l700.
i have dialled #*7337#
and now imei number of my phone is changed. it shows 000000000000000 number as imei.
is there any way to restore my orignal imei number.
my orignal imei number was 358224022597094.
plz help me to fix it.
I took .qcn backup of my Micromax A092 with QPST and installed stock ROM. As usual my SN, IMEI etc were flushed out. Now when I restored NV items using .qcn file, only the first IMEI of my phone is being restored but not the second one. Isn't the .qcn backup supposed to restore both of my IMEI numbers?
After searching web a bit I found a software which repairs only the IMEI for dual sim phones and repaired the IMEIs but still I'm not able to restore the SN (Serial number) of my mobile. Does someone has any idea about the NV item where SN is stored on Micromax A092.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a Cricket branded galaxy s6 on the Cricket network and I was having some issues with the fingerprint reader which led to an eventual factory reset after trying many other things and of course I forgot to turn off reactivation lock beforehand. When booting back up I realized my Samsung account wouldn't sync up and I realized what I had done and after trying numerous things to fix that problem it led to me flashing the firmware for my phone and of course I didn't make a copy of the efs folder. So now my phone cannot connect to any network because the IMEI number is showing as unknown and so is the sim card status. So my question is... Is there anything I can do now to regain network connectivity?
If you are rooted you may restore nv_data.bak and nv_core.bak, that may get your IMEI back, if not, you can purchase a new and clean CERT file to get a new authentic IMEI back.
Would the phone have to have been rooted before deleting the IMEI number? I still have the original IMEI number written down as well
So I have 2 phones (both S7e), but one lost its IMEI / having "can't mount /efs" problem. This phone unluckily doesn't have a back up of its own EFS / IMEI digitally, but it still has the phone sticker that has its associated IMEI. Now, my plan was to TWRP restore a backup from the working phone to the unusable one so that I can fix the EFS problem and right after, "edit" the IMEI number to what it's supposed to according to the sticker left on the phone.
My questions are:
1) is this possible?
2) if so, can someone help me find out the proper steps/tools to help me change the IMEI on the 2nd phone with the temporarily duplicated IMEI
3) any tips on making sure I don't have both phones running and get blacklisted for having 2 phones with the same IMEI on i was thinking just to leave both phones on airplane mode or at the very least, turn off the first phone until I get the second phone working

I think u should look for repair your efc partition
There are plenty of artical about restoring your imei or baseband version
I don't think u can restore your efc with same s7 edge backup
1st thinng u have to repair your efc partition
I have read artical about How to restore your efc partition or imei and baseband version
U will found out this thread on same page
I had also loose my efc and baseband version
But now it's fine
What i have done it's also there
Does anyone know how to patch the certificate in the SM-A12F to accept an IMEI change.
I have my original IMEI that I wish to repair on this phone and the IMEI Certi: Fail is blocking it from seeing the IMEI as anything other than Unknown.
Stupidly, I had followed instructions from somewhere with a "dead boot" recovery - which turned out to be somebody's scatter firmware dump, and in the process completely overwrote my sec_efs partition with theirs, which replaced my IMEI and serial number with their IMEI and serial number. I have patched the IMEI and serial number in the sec_efs dump with my own, but the certificate is obviously still certifying the other guy's IMEI instead.
I don't want to have to use Chimera or Z3X or anything because I already spent a fortune getting UnlockTool to let me fix the Knox lock that was applied thanks to whoever dumped that scatter firmware having not paid whoever their rental contract.
