IMEI not showing in MTK Droid Tool & IMEI/NVRAM option not available - General Questions and Answers

Hello people,
I have a Gionee P5W (informations in screenshot).
Last time, my smartphone's board (chip) got damaged and I replaced it with a new one.
Before, there was network ( SIM signal) in my device but after I changed chip, there is no network but sim card is detected.
I mean, sim card is detected but doesn't give network at all.
I at least know that it is not location or network provider's fault because it was working perfectly fine before.
So, I searched through the internet and was suggested to change IMEI, but before, I wanted to check details with MTK Droid Tools.
But when I opened MTK Droid Tools, my IMEI was not shown and IMEI/NVRAM option was not available. Maybe, it was the problem for no network because IMEI plays a vital role in network of device.

We do not support the changing of imei on xda. It is illegal in most countries and is not approved discussion here

I know that the main point is not changing IMEI.
My phone detects SIM Card but always says no service
So, I researched quite a bit and found that IMEI has some connection with it
That's my only reason
If you know, you can help me, I would appreciate that.

[Q] A Simcard Slot Problem?????

Sorry for my poor English first.
I am currently in New Zealand. I bought a Galaxy S4 from an online retailer two weeks ago. The phone was actually shipped from a provider in Hong Kong.
The first thing I did after I received the phone was checking the IMEI number. The IMEI number on the case was consistent with that on white label in battery cell. However, when I tapped *#06# it showed a strange IMEI which was 004999010640000. The phone kept showing "NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK“ though it could find the network.
I've tried simcard of different companies.
I've tried to select network manually in both wcdma and gsm network.
NONE of these works.
To me it seems like a bug caused by damaged EFS file, but I DIDN'T FALSH ANY ROM OR FIRMWARE ON THIS NEW PHONE.
Then I returned my phone to the retailer. At first, they admitted their fault and promised to have me a brand new replacement. Then, they started to question me about if I had break the interior needle of SIM card slot which I had no idea what that was. The explanation they gave, which sounds none-sense to me, was because SIMCARD in AUS/NZ is thicker, that interior needle of SIM card slot was damage somehow by improper operation. In another words, I have to pay to fix this brand new phone.
My question is, how would such a simcard slot problem, if there is one, change the IMEI showing on my phone?
Bro your not supposed to show your ime no. To anyone

The 004999 number is the fake one displayed on my phone. Thanks for noticing anyway

Yes, it will not change your IMEI, the reason you are not getting network, is because its a fake imei, read this and threaten to sue them by giving you a defective unit and further trying to con you that its due to a broken SIM pin. Better make a police report if they fail to change it.

"Slot has been permanently blocked"

I flashed a custom ROM and the on first screen my device asked to insert the PIN code, then i tried more than two times and it showed "Slot has been permanently blocked". I could't make any phonecalls And when i flashed my stock ROM it works normal.
Do you know how to unlock the SIM slot?
Thank you very much.
Device: Blu vivo IV (Gionne s.5.5) chipset 6598
Custom ROM: Lolifox V6
---------------------------------
If you truly believe the device is stolen or has otherwise been acquired through illegitimate means, we can't help you - you should contact the authorities and have the seller investigated. Stealing is a crime and stolen IMEIs are blocked for that very reason.
If not, first check that the phone supports the network frequencies that your carrier uses wherever you are - not all phones support all bands, and not all carriers support all bands either.
If you can tell us the make and model of the phone, we can point you to a device-specific forum in case it's a general problem or issue with that phone model.
Beyond that, you can try to take up with the manufacturer of the phone or the carrier if it's a carrier-branded phone.
I once had to make numerous called to my carrier's support line because my new imported phone was somehow registered in my carrier's database as a completely different kind of device, so the system kept kicking me off the data plan."

My device was not stolen, i bought it recently, if you guys want i could post the photography of the box.
I live in BRAZIL (BLU IV) and i am trying to install a custom room for a device which's made for INDIA(GIONE s5.5), the device, it self, is the same, what changes its the "software".I saw a video on youtube that someone from USA installed the same custom ROM and didn't get any problem.
I am apologies for this good English sirs.
If you enter the wrong PIN more than three times, the "slot" gets blocked and you can't use your SIM to connect to the network anymore. Newly bought SIM cards come inside one bigger card on which your PUC is written on. For security purposes, SIM cards require this code to be entered if they get locked down.

No service with valid sim card

Hi everyone,
I'm having a very bad issue with my Nexus 5.
Last week, my mobile network stopped working, always displaying "No service".
The sim card was still recognized, since I had to enter my pin code after each reboot.
So I tried to put my sim card in a friend's phone, and it worked perfectly on his.
Next, I called Google tech support to get some information and they simply sent me another Nexus 5 to solve the issue.
The thing is, I'm having the same issue with the new phone, but it's even worse.
The sim card is not recognized at first when I reboot the phone.
After I put it out and in once, it asks me for my pin code. And then, I get the "No service" again.
If I try to make a call it says : "Turn off airplane mode to make a call" (see attached screenshot). I tried to turn it on and off, nothing works.
I must precise that the network worked as a charm with the new phone for 3 days and then nothing.
I tried several sim cards from different service providers, and I get the exact same issue every time. and boot in safe mode but i get the no service again

Here is my configuration :
Android 6.0.1
Security patch level : 1 january. 2016
Baseband version : M8974A-2.0.50.2.28
Build number number : MMB29S
Is anyone having this issue ?
Thanks.
There is a known problem with the N5 where a totally dead battery can kill the radio component. No, it makes no sense to me either, but after it happened to me I did a lot of reading across many forums and discovered I wasn't alone. Flashing half a dozen different ROMs made no difference. Eventually I contacted Google and, as with you, they replaced my N5 with a refurbished model which has worked perfectly ever since.
All I can suggest is that you report the second phone to Google and hope that they will replace it again.

I don't know if it is the same problem as I have had in the past, But
Not all sim card have your phone number saved to them.
What I had to do was put my sim card into my daughter's iPhone and save my phone number back to my own sim card, and then my own phone could see my number.
Google search should tell you how to do that. Good Luck. It's well past time that android should have added that!
What?
Settings/About phone/Phone number (sim slot 1)
Settings/About phone/Phone number (sim slot 2)
If it doesn't show, reboot your phone.

I tried. It is not happening
You could ask a local mobile phone shop just to check your number is saved to your sim card. I think most would help.

Call your provider and work it through with them. They'll need the IMEI from the phone or the box you got it in. They need to register that IMEI with your phone number. It happened to me with my eSim and finally they figured it out but it took the second tier support guy.

I called operator. They say its activated properly from their side. I replaced sim. Still the pixel 6a is showing my sim as unknown although all services like call in/out, sms in/out and internet is working fine. Even the person whom I am ringing is getting my number correctly. Its just the phone and its strange why it is showing other sim number when inserted but not this number
