Is there a possible solution that some one could possibly point towards to restore a o'ed IMEI . I accidentally erased only the IMEI somehow. ( my dumb luck) . Thanks in advance for any information.

Hello Xda Developers Users.
I have been searching for a solution to me problem for like 4 days non-stop .
Here is my problem .
I have a Samsung Note 2 (GT-N7100 Model) and It has the latest Stock firmware (Rooted + Disabled KNOX).
Basicly I lost the EFS Folder/Partion , and I have no way of retreiveing my backup again , The current IMEI is invalid which is 0499... etc , I have Signal to the Network Provider but I have no means to call neither use SIM CARD functions ..etc .
Anyway , I have Read - tried all the possible solutions on the internet like :-
1 - flashed different Stock roms , no result IMEI still 0049 ... etc .
2 - flashes different modems still no result .
3 - tried EFS professional , still IMEI 0049 with no help.
Yes , i know , I'm stupid sorry guys this is my first time doing this and the device is out of warranty time anyway.
and if you are thinking about going to a repair shop to fix them in my country it's gonna take some big cash .
Also , I have thought about a solution , why doesn't the members who have the same Device model upload their backup for me ? and then problem solved ? right.
Or a slight idea on how to change the invalid IMEI number to the real one , behind the battery.
I know that Changing IMEI number might be illegal but it isn't in my country and I'm holding the responsibility of my actions towards fixing my IMEI , I'll not use it in any illegal way ofc.
Please I'm really trying to fix my IMEI number to the correct one and There is currently 1 solution that i couldn't try even if i could.
It's Fixing the IMEI with Z3X box which is really stupid , because i won't pay 200$ to fix a simple IMEI fix.
And If there is no way to fix that for free , where do i look online to fix it for some cash.
Thanks for reading
Best Regards
Guys , I have found some solutions regarding using Z3X Box or HWK Tornado Box ..etc
But these boxes are for fixing multi devices and require a fortune .
I just want to fix 1 simple device ? Why would it cost 200$ for that.
I mean , why in the world isn't there a samsung utilities and tools for free that has the basic functionality of these boxes ? WTF .

Have you seen this? [Info] EFS/Lost IMEI - Must to read for every Newbies. by dr.ketan
Questions about this device should be posted in Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Hello Altruists,
I need your help to recover my galaxy s6 edge (G925W8, 5.1.1). My phone was blacklisted and repaired the IMEI 5 months ago. Suddenly the network was again blocked and I saw the IMEI changed to 350000000000006. I wanted to solve it by myself. Mistakenly I downloaded a different NV data to my phone. After that the IMEI changed to Null and Baseband become unknown. I forgot to make any backup. Some of the specialists said the phone cant be repaired. I hope any of you will help me to solve this issue. Thanks
Hi guys, does anyone know someone who can repair Galaxy S6 IMEI remotely, for $20? I'm just a student and don't make much money and that's all I have left in my PayPal account. I need to rewrite my original IMEI because it was wiped by the malicious ROM Tonylel posted which erases EFS.

need help with IMEI,please,Thanks
Well my IMEI is borked after flashing a backup of what i thought when my phone was stable. Anyway i don't have the money to buy a octopus box or Z3x box so i was wondering if i go to my carrier could they reset it if i HAVE tripped Knox Also my carrier is telus and would they charge me?
Someone correct me if i am wrong, but if you don't have proper EFS backup (imei), and you messed up efs partition, there is no way you can get your IMEI back. And carrier would never do that for you (specially after you voided your warranty). And yes, changing IMEI is pretty much illegal.
Do some research on xda, i remember there was a thread on Galaxy S6 Q&A forum, one guy had same problem and he managed to fix it somehow.
IMEI is posted on the back glass of thr phone. Use a bright light to shine on it and write it down. At least if you have to have it reflashed you'll know what the device IMEI is and can restore with the digits.

Try this post, I solved it with Samsung Smart Switch
Hello everyone, recently I've flashed the Superman ROM V.3.0.1 on my S7 Edge and everything was fine until I went to general settings on my phone and saw my IMEI is now UNKNOWN. I know this thread may be already solved, and yes, these days I was looking for answers for my problem but I need to know for sure what alternatives I have to recover my IMEI. I have to mention, my phone is 100% original, it has its own IMEI from the beginning, not a copy or MTK device. I saw some sollutions based on some kind of programs to restore manually the IMEI with a command, and this method for me it's not like the best thing to do in this situation..
When I am dialing *#06# I receive the following information: " SM-G935F is not supported on showIMEI ".
I've checked through TWRP ( version 3.1.1.0 ) the partition EFS, is still there ( it has 2mb ). What do you guys think about this? Flashing the stock ROM from sammobile may solve my problem? What alternatives do I have?
Thank you!
