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)

"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."

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

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!
These materials can only be used for ROG Phone 5_ZS673KS, and ROG Phone 5S_ZS676KS cannot be used.
ROG Phone 5S ZS676KS Please see here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ootloader-to-modify-country-cn-to-ww.4353339/
If your ROG Phone 5 ZS673KS only has edl mode (port 9008), then this tool can help you repair your phone through edl mode.
Or if you want to modify COUNTRY, flash the firmware of WW, you don't need to apply to unlock the Bootloader,
you don't need ROOT, just follow me.
1.Connect the phone to the computer through the USB port on the left, enter the fastboot mode,
and then open "Reboot-to-edl.bat" to enter the edl mode. Or enter fastboot oem enter-dload in cmd.
2.You must flash in the ENG firmware that I modified. If you find the firmware online,
you may lose your fingerprint and IMEI after flashing.
Method 1: The phone enters edl mode, and when you see port 9008 in the device manager,
open the ENG folder--open "0-update_image_EDL.bat"
Method 2: The phone enters edl mode, and after you see port 9008 in the device manager, use the XiaoMiFlash tool to flash in.
Method 3: The phone enters edl mode, and after you see port 9008 in the device manager,flash in through the QPST tool.
3.After flashing in the firmware and successfully booting up, be sure to back up your phone partition files. If your phone's fingerprint is lost or IMEI is lost,
it can be restored to normal. If you don't have a backup, it will be very troublesome.
Double-click to open "Backup.bat", it will automatically back up your phone partition files, you need to save these files, follow-up will definitely help you.
Include these Eight files：“persist.img factory.img modemst1 modemst2 asuskey4 fsg fsgCA fsc”
Normally, you don’t need to restore these files. If your fingerprint or imei is lost and you need to restore these files to your phone,
please flash the ENG firmware, then put these Eight files into the ROG 5 folder, and double-click to open " Restore.bat" can be restored to your phone.
4.If your machine is an global version, after backing up and saving Eight files, directly enter the fastboot mode, open the WW folder-open "flash_raw_and_wipe_data.cmd" to flash the WW firmware,
and successfully repair your ROG 5.
If you cannot flash the firmware in fastboot mode, the prompt: fastboot error CID () Mapping wrong Xrom!
You can Double click to open"Open-Cmd.bat",Then enter the commands, enter fastboot -v flash all xx.raw
xx.raw is the firmware on your computer, for example: fastboot -v flash all C:\Users\johnny\Desktop\ROG5\WW\WW_ZS673KS_18.0810.2101.95_M2.13.24.9-ASUS_1.1.46_Phone-user.raw
ASUS:
version display asus fastboot version and list support project.
-v flash all : disable asus raw id checking.
-g flash all : disable repartition.
-C flash all : disable CRC_<partition>.
If your machine is the CN version, and you want to flash into the WW Firmware, but don’t want to unlock the BootLoader, you can use WinHex to open the persist.img you just backed up,
find COUNTRY, change CN to WW and save it, and you can directly restore it to your phone through the dd command Inside, there is no need to unlock or install magisk.
Double click to open"Open-Cmd.bat",Then enter the commands one by one
adb push persist.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/persist.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist
Then enter the fastboot mode, open the WW folder-open "flash_raw_and_wipe_data.cmd" to flash the WW firmware.
File Downlaod Link：https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyvQTp4lNw9-54k12EPOooQjdvSuCLyk/view?usp=sharing
YouTube:
I have also studied Hardwaresub Services for a long time, ROG1/ROG2/ROG3 only need to modify COUNTRY, CN to WW, and then flash into the global version,
there will be no such prompt. In addition to modifying COUNTRY, ROG 5 also needs to modify asuskey4.
In this partition, clear the imei, then there is no prompt. But I can’t do anything with ROG 5S.
This machine verifies modemst1 and modemst2. I tried it for a long time, but I couldn’t get rid of the prompt except for the whitelist.
If your ROG3/ROG5/ROG5S is the CN version, but you have flashed the WW firmware, you cannot unlock the Bootloader, or you are prompted to unlock successfully, but the Bootloader is still not unlocked after restarting, you can write the correct SSN and ISN of the phone Go to asuskey4, then restore to the phone partition, and then use the official unlocking tool to unlock it.
Nice job putting together what james(whatever) abused the community to accomplish and never cared enough to document for anyone else.
Might want to change the label to "How to Guide" instead of "Question" (contrary to most that label a question as a guide) and consider rewording the title a bit, though. It reads "convert your phone if you are stuck in EDL", but "restore from EDL or convert without unlocking bootloader" is what you explain and that's a much larger audience.
@johnny886 tnx for ur complete tutorial
can u make tutorial video with phone for convert to ww. im noob about asus and many user want convert but worried about brick phone or lose fingerprint and imei
and after convert we able manual update phone ?
special thanks . I followed your instructions to change CN to WW and success with no error, even fingerprint , amazing! Just one problem still exist is The Hardwarestub warning : how could we deal with it beside disable this app ?
For PC not show EDL device in Device manager --> Change OEM cable , some cable just have 4 wire , not enough for fastboot.
For PC show EDL devices but with yellow caution . Use driver below . still now show 9008 port --> change different usb port (3.0, 2.0...)

IMEI and Fingerprint work with no error, afterall you have to update manually(copy new FW to your root storage) , OTA will not work. His instruction very clear even for newbie . just need to read carefully

I don't knowv that anyone can help you. If you wiped your IMEI, didn't record it anywhere, and purchased the phone without a box... There is no way to restore an unknown number.
Well, I have a device called "Tectoy ON 5029Y", the same as "Alcatel 3L 2020" (White Label), I'm trying to install a GSI on it, but I lose the IMEI and Baseband every time I unlock the bootloader, but if I block they come back, what am i doing wrong? I've done a lot of research on this device and there is little useful information.
I've already started GSI's, but they also have the same problem.

It will restore your IMEI, if it relocks your bootloader, you can unlock it again. Even flashing the newest version of your firmware should restore your IMEI and probably won't lock the bootloader in the process.

I've done this procedure before, about 4 times, the baseband and IMEI are never restored, only when I lock the bootloader. Also, until today I didn't have the stock of this smartphone, I used the Alcatel MU to restore it.
edit:
before I had restored after having installed the GSI, the bootloader did not come back locked, this time it came back! Then I unlocked it again and the IMEI disappeared again.

I don't think that restoring / changing IMEI is done this way.
OP is recommended to use Maui Meta Tool to repair the IMEI.

If you don't have EFS backup the only thing I know you can do is flashing stock ROM. That is what has been sorting it out for me. I think I've managed doing it once with ROM which was based on stock but I think that is very hard to happen in practice.

AFAIK on MTK devices an EFS partition / directory doesn't exist, but an NV ( NVRAM ) partition / directory.
BTW: A Stock ROM - the ROM compiled by OEM especially for each of its device models - never includes a device's IMEI. If it would be so then all phones of such a device series would have the same IMEI - which would be a complete nonsense.

I don't think I can fix the IMEI without a baseband.
Try to factory reset! When i lost IMEI on ZTE blade X3 its too helpful than i reset when this situation happen. and try to lock BootLoader again. and try to back to original ROM. +Turn off cell network and eject SIM card again and Turn on cell network after than you put SIM card again

I've already done that, the baseband and imei always disappear, when I lock the bootloader they come back. I don't know if this has to do with "Security boot MTK" or "AVB 2.0", I rooted and installed vbmeta, still the same problem remains.
@MrJosh18 Its maybe SIM problem.
Or ROM problem totally. MTK processors too vurneable to any BootLoader actions. Its maybe problems of Android telephony System apps.

well I don't know what else to do, I can root, install GSI and then I'll do a twrp port, but I really don't know how to solve these obstacles.
BTW: it's not just on my device, other people have tested it too
ROOT hmmmm
I think what solves for this problem are.
Maybe BootLoader break SIM totally. Wait

Use this CLI tool to back up (Read option) your NVRAM, NVdata and NVCFG prior to unlock it (you can back up any existent partition you want), after that you can use this tool even to unlock it and either, for sake of curiosity or for future reference, see if it produces a different result (i.e. not erasing IMEI). https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient
Also, you're right, you need to firstly fix the baseband null issue to can fix IMEI. What Droidriven suggested was flashing your stock ROM after to unlock bootloader, a ROM from other device even if it is from a similar or from a rebranded device won't work/make the same that the firmware for your exact model, I know, probably is not available anywhere, but this is a fact.

The baseband is back, but still no IMEI
I make a software by QFIL - after that imei null
I Have The Box with IMEI but I don't Know how to restore It ??
there any solution to fix the network?
You need to hex edit your IMEI into your QCN file and flash it back to the device. Also from QFIL.

There are a lot of guides on XDA and elsewhere for the steps. However you need to first secure a working QCN file if you don't have a backup of your own and know the IMEIs in that file, so you can locate and overwrite with your own IMEI. Without that, you won't get far... I don't have a QCN file for this device on hand, maybe someone else here does and an share with you...

Is there a solution to unlock bootloader always Error11003
@Andrologic
Hey! I have been long trying to recover my nulled IMEI on ROG5. Every single tutorial I can find asks for a qcn file along with hex editor to input your box IMEIs. All follows up on my end until I use Qfil to restore a changed qcn file. It only writes till 2% and then phone goes into ramdump screen which means there's some kind of IMEI write protection on device or something like that. Because all other IMEI writing methods fail the phone to same RAM Dump screen. Desperate for some help.
Also there seems to be a problem getting diag mode to work on all stock ROMS. The only way diag mode works is by using ENG factory firmware on my ROG 5 which enables diag mode by default. The Asus_volte_su_fixed apk provided by @twistedumbrella Also doesn't enable diag mode on ROG5.

This is not based on my own experience - but it looks like you may have access to write the IMEIs to this device via one of the ASUS Key partitions - in which case you may (or may not) be able to bypass writing QCN altogether.
I forgot the name of the guy who posted it, I believe it was under a CN>WW conversion guide - try to look it up and give it a try...

The Imei part was mentioned in the very last part of thhis guide:
Repair ROG Phone 5 ZS673KS through edl firmware, no need to unlock Bootloader to modify COUNTRY CN to WW
These materials can only be used for ROG Phone 5_ZS673KS, and ROG Phone 5S_ZS676KS cannot be used. ROG Phone 5S ZS676KS Please see...
forum.xda-developers.com
Someone tried that for a seperate reason and apparently it changed their IMEI:

Now, When I change the asuskey4 file, My IMEI do appear in the bootloader screen but when phone starts, it goes into a boot loop which stays even if I reflash the ENG firmware or stock firmware and ending in RAM dump screen.
Erasing the modemst1,modemst2 and fsg partitions from the phone does allow to get out of the bootloop. But shows Null Imei in the phone, while showing the IMEI in the bootloader screen.
So, apparently if I cannot restore the qcn file, There's no other way.
But Restoring QCN in ENG factoey firmware using QFIL or QPST only goes till 2% and then fails and phone goes to RAM Dump screen. Which apparently means that the phone has somekind of NV data write or IMEI write protection.
Writing QCN via Qfil goes till 2% then phone turns off and then status goes this 164% after which it shows that:
2022-05-05 08:53:19.685 Subscription ID:1 EFS File:/sd/mru001_ext_Subscription01, Function:NV_Tool_WriteNVsToMobile, Event:3 164%
2022-05-05 08:53:19.686 Done uploading the QCN file: C:\Users\mhrs_\Downloads\Compressed\GenericIMEI\patched.qcn, Sync EFS
2022-05-05 08:53:19.687 Done EFS Sync

2022-05-05 08:53:24.208 Finish Restore QCN
Attached is the log file from Qfil.
After this, phones goes into RamDump screen and when I hard reboot the phone, I can see IMEI changed from Null to 0 but still not my original IMEI :/
using qpst to restore only goes till 4% after which phone gets stuck in Ramdump screen.

Hi, Guys. I have the same problem since few days... Hope we will find a solution soon.
You cannot use others's qcn file to restore your imei. The imei store in fsg, modemst1, modemst2 also in your qcn file. If you use others qcn then they don't match each other, you'll failed to restore. The key: you need to empty the partition of fsg, modemst1, modemst2 in oder to restore other qcn file, but the system is read only so you cant do anything.
Hello guys! I recently bought LMV600AM(AT&T) from eBay and inserted wrong network unlock code. So the phone said that "this phone is permanently locked..." and network's dead!!!
Anyone knows how to fix it??
I tried lots of things, such as change rom, crossflash to T-mobile firmware.. but nothing solves this problem.
So, here's my questions.
1) Can "Bootloader unlock" process solve this network lock problem?
2) I contact to someone who says that he can solve this problem. He says that he has "engineer firmware(or development firmware)" - I think this is LG developer's stock rom maybe...-. Also, he says that "I will erase every partition, backup partitions by enginner firmware and just rewrite your IMEI, then problem will solve." Is that true? Is there a "engineer firmware" for LMV600AM?? if there, anybody please pass over to me??
3) I follow "https://www.hovatek.com/blog/fixing-this-phone-is-permanently-locked-on-lg-v60/" this solution, so now my phone is currently T-Mobile firmware(v30b) and my S/N is changed to other number. Still, network doesn't work. Fun thing is that when I boot the phone, it says "you have to unlock network by unlocked app". But when I go to mobile network menu and tap 'network unlock', it says "this phone is permanently unlocked and can use any carrier." And still network doesn't work. What's the problem??
