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*

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!
Hi guys!
Yesterday my firmware update went terribly wrong and now I have a device that states that imei and baseband are unknown, so I my both sim-cards don't work.
I've tried several types of IMEI restoration, but none of them worked.
Unfortunately I don't have any backup for nvram. So, my guess is that there is a problem with EFS partition on the phone.
In QPST NV RF Manager I see my real IMEI from the box, so I guess it is still present, but my baseband doesn't work. Can you please suggest any help on recovering the baseband? Or if it is possible share with me modem backup or nvram backup without IMEI (I've seen on this forum that one guy with Samsung S3 had a kind of the same problem and he was given a working nvram backup without IMEI (IMEI was 0/00)) I can write my IMEI then, if baseband works again. Will appreciate any help.
Send it back. Only the oem is legally able to mess with the IMEI.

Well... I have managed to make it work again and my original IMEI is back. The only thing I had to do is to restore a working NVRAM backup (from another device) via QPST. So, it wasn't that hard. Much simpler than sending it back to China.

If you restored the file from another device then it won't have the right IMEI.

It HAS right IMEI, I checked it with the original box. No need to put up an argument about it. Both devices (mine and the one which was backupped and restored from) are working fine, bot have ORIGINAL IMEI numbers and no errors considering networks or MI accounts. So, actually I have no idea what you are trying to tell me.

I'm not making an argument. I'm trying to figure out how a number which is supposed to be hard coded into the file is then restored by restoring the files from a different device.
As these devices are not sold in the states learning as much as possible is a good thing.
Glad you got it working.

Okay, sorry. I will try to make it a bit clearer=) This device is not sold in Russia either (officially at least), so the only way to get it is to buy from aliexpress or ebay or anything else. In that case the buyer doesn't get any guarantee or official support. So if the device is broken and can't be restored it turns into a garbage. I believe that in the US the situation with that kind of devices is almost the same.
Now, if You are not familiar with QPST it is a software package for qualcomm based devices which can make backup/restore of some non-firmware software from the device (like IMEI, ESN, Baseband, LTE Channels etc). As for IMEI number, basically, as You've said it is hard coded into device so it is pretty hard to get it changed or fully deleted. Here we come to my case of unknown Baseband and IMEI. Though via phone settings I could see: "Unknown", my IMEI didn't change and was stored in the device. The "error" or smth like that happened after the factory reset and my guess is that the file structure of NVRAM was changed. So, backup of NVRAM taken from the working device didn't actually have IMEI or ESN in it, but it has the right file structure without any errors. That is what happened, the file structure was restored without changing any factory numbers.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask

It is almost the same with a few exceptions. One being that their devices are banned from all people that work for the government, sometimes they get stopped at customs due to copyright issues and with the latest news about them coming loaded with malware, most won't buy them.
That makes sense in a way. Not sure why a factory reset would mess up that part of the device as it shouldn't touch it.
Thanks for the info.

Hi! Have you tried flashing China developer rom with Miflash?
Second option: Connect to your PC and run QPST according to one of the manuals (in order for your phone to show up as a COM), run RF NV Manager and look up your line 550 NV_IMEI if it is filled with numbers that are the same as on your box (check HEX above them and numbers should resemble yours from box but written in opposite direction, eg: on the box it is XXXX69XXXXX in the QPST it will be 96). So, if your IMEI is at its place than all you need is a working device from someone to make a backup. Backup must be made in newer versions of QPST in *.xqcn format and than restored to your phone with checked box "allow ESN mismatch"

http:/ en.miui.com thread-315233-1-1.html (replace whitespaces with slash)
There is a thread in official forum where one guy shares qcn backup. There is also an instruction to restore IMEI and baseband. But It doesn't help for me. Network still unavailable.
Hello, I was installing a rom xiaomi.eu to my new mi4c as it came with a ROM 77 loaded with a lot of bloatware.The phone bricked while installing it and couldn't even start in fastboot mode. Luckily with a tutorial I could recover. The problem is that the IMEI got erased. And the phone had no signal and couldn't detect SIM.
I a tutorial in order to repair it with the QUALCOMM QPST TOOL the problem comes when trying to read the xiaomi with the RF Manager NV only has 4 NV files, not even the IMEI or anything.
Creating IMEI I could get the phone to read SIM, and to show IMEI when typing *#06#. But no signal.
Therefore the only solution I can think of and that saves my phone is that if someone is kind enough to make a .qcn backup of his Mi4c and share with me to restore my Mi4c (obviously would put my IMEI to it so no worries) so the phone can work normally again with signal and so...Thanks a lot, I need your help.
Hey I really appreciate any help that you can provide. I will tell the long story. My phone got corrupted while flashing different custom ROMs. Oxygen was the culprit. It completely damaged all the partition of my phone. So I repaired via 9008 modem loader using COLOR OS flash tool. then I found there is no baseband and IMEI. EFS partition damaged and I didnt have a backup. Damn it!!!!! Tons of research and googling I found how to use QPST tool by Qualcomm. I retrieved QCN file from friends ONEPLUS ONE (16gigs) and flashed it to my phone (64gigs) and edited the IMEI to my one. Rebooted the phone. tada. I got wifi bluetooth everything running. Phone signal just connects and drops every sec. It wont stay connected. but it is detected. then I thought it might modem issue. I tried every single modem out there but no luck. Finally flashed CM11s 44S Modem. Kaboom. Got the network running. but sadly it will only connect to 3g. I cant connect to 4g. No Other modem works.
1. Only get 3g service via 44s modem on any vanilla rom.
2. No other modem works.
3. Proximity sensor acts really weird. If a call comes Then I have to restart my phone to get the screen lit back. Fixed by flashing proximity fix
4. Baseband is always unknown with 44s Modem but has 3g network connectivity.
5. Other modem shows baseband but no connection even though it is detected.
Please help me guys.. What am I missing. any help appreciated.

1- Check If you have IMEI and IMEI sv and it's the IMEI that shows on box.
2- if no. 1 is true then check another sim card another operator ( to be sure that carrier is not blocking your IMEI for some reason).
3- if other operator's sim worked contact your carrier to check problem with them.

Hey thanks for the reply. I do have my IMEI from the box. I flashed QCN file using QPST tool and applied my IMEI but the thing is I only get 3g. 4G is not detected. Im not sure if something has to do with baseband files. But my friend is from my place and he gets 4g just not me. If I use any other modem other than 44s Modem the network will be detected but won't connect so i cant make or receive calls or anything related to service provide.. Do you know what to do ?

Okay let's make some tweaks :
1- backup modemst1 and modemst2 using dd (I don't trust qcn backup ) and copy them to your computer I also prefer to backup persist and fsg
2- download NEVER_SETTLE from https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061 (you will find commands to backup mdemst1 and modemst2)
3- flash only persist using fastboot and reboot to system and check everything again.
other partitions locations :
/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (fsg)
/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 (persist)

IDK what i did my opo was dead for around 3 months, the screen was responsive but totally black. then managed to recover from it then bricked it.
just figured it out. I am on my own build of XOSP[maybe it had problem idk] but had to flash my efs[64gig] backups and got my original imei back [earlier i had restored to a different imei qcn file may be it belonged to a 16gig opo] and also got 4g signal but still no baseband.
Then flashed COS13.1.2 and got baseband back, now the proximity is also working as it should and also got LTE working and instant signal on restarting the device. Now again back on XOSP everything works. If you need i can pm the efs files.

FYI your IMEI will be lost if you do so.
So I suggest to backup your partitions first in case of everything goes wrong.
Any way I have qualcomm stock efs partitions with 0 IMEI in case if you need them

IMEI is encrypted so if you do so, you will see it in settings but network carrier will receive it 0. This means that you won't get 4g also only 3g. So I personally prefer that you flash efs of [MENTION=bablu084;70545585]bablu084[/MENTION] this gonna work except you're two in the same country.

I will send you original qualcomm efs but firstly you should backup all your data even fsg partition with dd command
I have a CC9 Pro Premium. Even if i can't fix my problem, hopefully this story will PREVENT people from messing with their IMEIs... I hope no one ever goes through what I just did
I'm obviously by no means encouraging changing IMEIs, even in certain 3rd world countries where it could be necessary!
So here's a detailed backstory: When you purchase a phone where I live, you need a valid passport in order to pay tax and register it's IMEI number, and if not you get cut off by your operator within a month.
I didn't have one, since it also takes about 4-8 months to process, and I couldn't even preform a request due to the corona virus situation.
So, being the ignorant idiot I am, I thought it would be a great idea to change it's IMEI number till I can register the original one, since a lot of people do this over here apparently, white market
I followed a tutorial I found online (And re-posted on XDA, so there's nothing really wrong with it), and here's what happened:
(Root, TWRP and Diag is OK in all steps)
I made a .qcn backup using QPST build 480, saved the original somewhere safe, edited the copy, wiped modemst1, modemst2 and fsg, then restored it
*phone reboots*
Everything's the same, and still getting reception, no change
Took another backup and saw it was the same, so I give up
The next day I try again, but this time is when the problems started... I take another QCN backup just to be sure, and it's slightly larger (Could be because I just inserted a 2nd SIM for the first time right before it), edit it, then wipe modemst1, modemst2, fsg and this time: "fsc" since I saw someone do it in another tutorial for the Mi Note 10
*phone reboots*
*boot animation*
*resets and goes to recovery*
I was shocked. I wipe the 4 partitions again and the phone boots normally, nothing has changed (apparently).
So I put my SIMs in and go watch a movie. Then I switch it on, only to see there's no reception!!!
I wipe the partitions, and restore the first original backup... boots to recovery again...
Wipe... Boots normally... restore the 2nd original one (slightly larger, both sims)... boots to recovery...
Then I just decide to miflash a fastboot rom, maybe that will get things back to normal!
So I wipe, flash rom... IMEI and Baseband now Unknown... Yikes...
I next find an xQCN backup online for the Mi Note 10 that only has a single IMEI in it, that belongs to the 2nd sim (SIM 1 550 only, QCN View, the 1st 550 missing)
Replace it with my original and reboot, IMEI 2 and baseband is back! But no reception, even after multiple reboots...
I wipe partitions again, IMEI 2 is still there... Interesting...
I continue trouble shooting, even: wiping the partitions, restoring the original backup, flashing fastboot rom... still boots to recovery (Mi Recovery of course), setting 755 permission for modem files...
------------------------------------------------
SUMMERY:
I need to find out why the original backup keeps booting to recovery!!! Also some information about "fsc" partition would be nice, since wiping that probably started the whole issue (Is it a backup for fsg?!)
Important things I discovered:
1) Wiping modemst1 and modemst2 at the same time is enough for the phone to boot
2) The reboot to recovery (Recovery loop?) with the original backups is caused on an OS level, because one time it took so long that I even saw the lockscreen for half a second before it rebooted (no SIMcard in the phone either)
3) After hours of dorking I found 2 other similar instances that could be related:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...onor-qcn-file-ze550kl-z00ld-ww-t3520647/page4 (Page 4-5)
(Normal boot using a custom rom?? Interesting... maybe Xiaomi.eu made no difference for me because it's still pretty much just MIUI)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ym0FP4BkY0 (The bottom comment):
"We cannot repair both SIM slots.
We can only repair SIM2 slot for IMEI repairing. After IMEI repair process, SIM1 IMEI getting '0' value. When we are trying to repair both SIM slot phone is entering the Bootloop and entering the recovery mode(twrp). Thats why we are remove SIM1 IMEI from qcn file and this time we can will repair to SIM2 slot. Do you know this Problem ? What can we do to solve this problem? Thank you in advance for your help."
Regards, and many thanks... DON'T MESS WITH IMEIs!!!
imei repair is done.
the only problem is returning to "Factory settings" and imei is deleted.

So far it only seems possible to restore sim 2, I contacted a professional IMEI dealer and this is what he said:
"IMEIs cannot be changed simply through a USB port on modern snapdragon SOCs. Only the secondary sim modem can be restored, because the primary sim is locked to the chipset. When tampered with, it goes into a lockdown state which means it can probably never be used again unless a breach is found"
I sold the phone and got a Nokia 9 Pureview, much more consistent but still has it's own issues

If it's related to the IMEI, multiple guides have already been made since I made this post. Just search for it on YouTube!
If not, could be a bad rom, bad recovery, incomplete unlock, etc.
Try a stable Orange Fox Recovery, that might fix it

Just flash the SIM 2 QCN I provided (edit the IMEI), and write the IMEI using pirated box software for free, you can find everything you need on YouTube. When I had the problem, pirated box software for the Mi Note 10 wasn't available yet

I have a CC9 Pro Premium. Even if i can't fix my problem, hopefully this story will PREVENT people from messing with their IMEIs... I hope no one ever goes through what I just did
I'm obviously by no means encouraging changing IMEIs, even in certain 3rd world countries where it could be necessary!
So here's a detailed backstory: When you purchase a phone where I live, you need a valid passport in order to pay tax and register it's IMEI number, and if not you get cut off by your operator within a month.
I didn't have one, since it also takes about 4-8 months to process, and I couldn't even preform a request due to the corona virus situation.
So, being the ignorant idiot I am, I thought it would be a great idea to change it's IMEI number till I can register the original one, since a lot of people do this over here apparently, white market
I followed a tutorial I found online (And re-posted on XDA, so there's nothing really wrong with it), and here's what happened:
(Root, TWRP and Diag is OK in all steps)
I made a .qcn backup using QPST build 480, saved the original somewhere safe, edited the copy, wiped modemst1, modemst2 and fsg, then restored it
*phone reboots*
Everything's the same, and still getting reception, no change
Took another backup and saw it was the same, so I give up
The next day I try again, but this time is when the problems started... I take another QCN backup just to be sure, and it's slightly larger (Could be because I just inserted a 2nd SIM for the first time right before it), edit it, then wipe modemst1, modemst2, fsg and this time: "fsc" since I saw someone do it in another tutorial for the Mi Note 10
*phone reboots*
*boot animation*
*resets and goes to recovery*
I was shocked. I wipe the 4 partitions again and the phone boots normally, nothing has changed (apparently).
So I put my SIMs in and go watch a movie. Then I switch it on, only to see there's no reception!!!
I wipe the partitions, and restore the first original backup... boots to recovery again...
Wipe... Boots normally... restore the 2nd original one (slightly larger, both sims)... boots to recovery...
Then I just decide to miflash a fastboot rom, maybe that will get things back to normal!
So I wipe, flash rom... IMEI and Baseband now Unknown... Yikes...
I next find an xQCN backup online for the Mi Note 10 that only has a single IMEI in it, that belongs to the 2nd sim (SIM 1 550 only, QCN View, the 1st 550 missing)
Replace it with my original and reboot, IMEI 2 and baseband is back! But no reception, even after multiple reboots...
I wipe partitions again, IMEI 2 is still there... Interesting...
I continue trouble shooting, even: wiping the partitions, restoring the original backup, flashing fastboot rom... still boots to recovery (Mi Recovery of course), setting 755 permission for modem files...
------------------------------------------------
SUMMERY:
I need to find out why the original backup keeps booting to recovery!!! Also some information about "fsc" partition would be nice, since wiping that probably started the whole issue (Is it a backup for fsg?!)
Important things I discovered:
1) Wiping modemst1 and modemst2 at the same time is enough for the phone to boot
2) The reboot to recovery (Recovery loop?) with the original backups is caused on an OS level, because one time it took so long that I even saw the lockscreen for half a second before it rebooted (no SIMcard in the phone either)
3) After hours of dorking I found 2 other similar instances that could be related:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...onor-qcn-file-ze550kl-z00ld-ww-t3520647/page4 (Page 4-5)
(Normal boot using a custom rom?? Interesting... maybe Xiaomi.eu made no difference for me because it's still pretty much just MIUI)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ym0FP4BkY0 (The bottom comment):
"We cannot repair both SIM slots.
We can only repair SIM2 slot for IMEI repairing. After IMEI repair process, SIM1 IMEI getting '0' value. When we are trying to repair both SIM slot phone is entering the Bootloop and entering the recovery mode(twrp). Thats why we are remove SIM1 IMEI from qcn file and this time we can will repair to SIM2 slot. Do you know this Problem ? What can we do to solve this problem? Thank you in advance for your help."
Regards, and many thanks... DON'T MESS WITH IMEIs!!!

Hi , same things happen to me.I have mi note 10 lite.
before the dealing to imei I take modemst1,modemst2,and fsg backup via dd codes.
and take qcn and xqcn backup via qpst.
And after that In fastboot commend I write
"fastboot erase modemst1"
"fastboot erase modemst2"
"fastboot erase fsg"
so my imei have gone.When I edit the qcn ( imei1 and imei2 both) and flash back to the phone. phone is going to recovery mode and nvdata is corrupted error happen.There is two possibility to the save to phone. First one you wipe-data in stock-recovery or again in fastboot mode you have to erase modemst1,modemst2,fsg.
So I erased again and open the phone.
This time I edited qcn file (only imei2,imei1 codes deleted in codes line and string) so my edited qcn only exist imei2 codes.
so I flashed back to phone and imei1 shows 0 and imei2 shows my original imei(I want to recover my original imei). and after that in the adb I flashed my stock modemst1,modemst2,fsg via dd codes and (also some secret codes and combination ) and after reboot my both imei show and start working.I dont know the reason but somehow my phone skip the security.Interesetingly .I guess phone security in the software not to hardware.
I want to check something so I tried 20 time to flash my stock backups via dd codes but it is only work 2 time whenever I tried the flash and after reboot my phone add ramdump(app 2 gb every time) files in the main stroage ( I search it,it is crash log). Interesting
Right now I search to skip security so I find some codes in build.prop
"ro.miui.restrict_imei=1" I think this one cause the problem to change imei so I try to disable it but I cant change to build.prop because in android 10 you can't mount system(rw) so cant change to build.prop.I think only solution is flashing edited system.new.dat file but I cant decompile system.dat.file so .
After Android 10 magisk root app just work in systemless way(this is not even a root not like the old time).You have root but you cant change anything with root access so in originally this is not root and it is sucks and bull****.
Do you know any rom tool for the edit system.new.dat file or how can I create new custom rom so if I success it I want to change both imei. I googled it but every tool is too old to use.
Regards..
i have problem with mi 8 no basedband unknow and restart.....no qcn write...try with UMT or QFIL not work.

I read all your whole post and I can suggest to try to use XiaoMiFlash.exe of 2019-12-06 (WARNING: option below must be CLEAN ALL to save your unlocked state of the Bootloader) for flashing back to Android 9 in Fastboot mode original flash (those of about 4GB) , after that you can try to edit the build.prop with some Apps that work with root / Magisk.
But please, 1st I really urgently need your 4 partitions backup (also the fsc), can you send to me?
TIA and best regards!

Thank you for posting your findings on the thread! I believe the solution for Mi Note 10 users could be flashing Android 9 and changing that build.prop line, we need someone to confirm this. I hope you discover a fix for your phone as well, please write a step by step guide if so. Good luck!
