[Q] Lost my IMEI while installing 4.1.2 - Motorola Photon 4G

Hi,
I have Motorola Photon with unlocked bootloader.
I've tried to install "cm-10-20121107-UNOFFICIAL-sunfire" ROM.
In the middle of the installation process (the "prop-set" screen) the phone just freezed.
I had to remove the battery and restart the phone.
(later I've realized that I needed to install the IMEI's CWM so I downloaded and installed it but it was too late and the damage was apparently already made...)
I tried this part also:
Code:
"look
first flash the rom whatever cm10 miui aopk
second flassh the gsm zip i uploaded
third flash gapps
fourth flash option chooser dont choose any of gsm or cdma
choose emmc or sdcard
choose not ussc fix and reboot
u will have signal "
But it didn't help me either.
I worked according to this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961248
And the phone is currently working and running cm-10-20121107-UNOFFICIAL-sunfire 4.1.2,
But I cannot connect to any network because the phone doesn't have IMEI.
Returning to the old ROM isn't helping either...
Please help!

It can be manually reprogrammed but it's not fun. Flash back to 198_7 go to a local Sprint service center. The most it will cost you is $35. You may even be able to move over to another device if you ask nicely

Hi,
Thanks for replying.
I bought this device in the US but I don't live in the US.
so I can't get to Sprint...
I'll be very glad if you could tell me how can I get this device back to work.
Thank you very much!

If you have clockworkmod installed on it, boot into cwm and wipe data/cache/dalvik and flash a different showcase kernel that you know works. Do you have a functioning showcase kernel already on your sd card?
You flashed a Verizon Fascinate kernel onto a Telus Showcase. Good job.
Dude I did the same thing my advice and what worked for me is flash the cell south showcase rom. Root your phone get rid of all cell south Apps make it look stock take it back get a new one that's if your in your 60 or 90 days i forget what it is as far as I know there's no roms For are showcase yet. If they give u **** just say u talked to customer service and samsung and u told them your phone seemed really slow and u noticed a few apps always running that shouldn't be even after you killed them like screen capture service and a few others and they told u it's probably a phone defect and should take it back and pick the rep that's looks like they want to go home they only want sells and will get you out as quick as possible. I hope all works out well for you I know how it is I'm on frog and payed 450..... but it should
Got my cell south Rom from some dudes in a irc chat room #samsung-mesmerize they helped me out a lot and if your willing to dump your Rom when u get a new phone they will make you a Rom for your phone

Telus doesn't use the Showcase. They use a GSM version of the Fascinate. The Showcase is a CDMA phone that is like a twin to the Verizon Fascinate and the US Cellular Mesmerize.

Slow down there buddy I'm on a showcase sch i500 cdma right now n-telos does have it they started selling it around may 1st its not gsm n-telos is cdma a little different then the cell south found out the hard way
Same problem here. Found directions to install Cyanogen 7.1 on a Samsung Showcase as it listed it to be compatible. Downloaded ClockworkMod Recovery and installed it using Heimdall Suite 1.1.1. Used CWM to then install the Cyanogen 7.1 rom and Google apps rom as well. All seemed good except for when it booted it listed my carrier as Cellular South. My carrier is actually Ntelos.
Needless to say the only thing that initially worked were voice calls and the web for some reason. Text messaging was broken(a big one with me).
I tried to *228 to see if that would maybe program the phone for the proper settings but it did not work.
So I thought that because I had backed up my phone with CWM I could just revert back to my old image and all would be well. The restore function did not work. Rebooting into CWM from the ROM manager I was able to initiate the restore. All seemed well and it notified me it had restored. When I rebooted my phone however it was frozen at the Samsung logo. I rebooted into CWM and cleared my cache and did the factory reset only to find that after a reboot it just loads straight to CWM.
Now I basically have a useless phone. I can reinstall Cyanogen but I no longer have signal for service. It also seems hit or miss as to if it installs with no problems. Sometimes it will install and the default widgets will show errors loading. The google apps will not install sometimes even though they show confirmed through CWM. I can reboot the phone from ROM manager into CWM and it will perform the restore just the same as the first time without any problems but the phone will not boot back up to the stock ROM. If I try to boot straight to CWM using Volume+Home+Power it will not perform the restore. It goes through small part
Erasing boot before restore...
Restoring boot image...
Restoring system...
Error mounting /system
That's as far as I get.
I'm basically stuck in this vicious cycle with no end in site. I've tried researching til my eyes hurt to find a solution to my problem. I can't find a stock ROM anywhere. Obviously the combination of a small carrier and a small audience for this model phone yields little along the lines of widespread support. So I've came here to the XDA Developers board in hopes that someone will be able to help me.

[Q] Bricked XT910 - MOC2E

Hi guys
First of all thanks for a great forum..
Normally i'm a very glad HTC user, and never had those kind of troubles with them, as i have with a friends Razr.
He tried to root it with the one-click tool.. Batman.. "Droid RAZR Utility 1.7"
My first thought is that.. When it says "Droid" Razr, is that because it's only for the XT912, or?
Because when i look here:
sbf.droid- developers . org
For official roms for the phone, i can see this:
"Motorola Droid RAZR (XT912)"
"Motorola RAZR (XT910)"
We live in Denmark, so its some european ROM we need.
But it went wrong.. He rooted it, and then he saw that there was a OTA update to get ICS 4.04, so he wanted to un-root the device again, the get the OTA update... He unrooted the device again in SuperSU, and then tried to get the OTA update, but he couldnt.. So he downloaded the Droid Razr Utility 1.7, and choosed option 1: Prepare for side-load ICS 6.16.211 or any Gingerbread Version..
After that he got some fails.. I suspect him for not having the update zip file on the SD card after running option 1, but i really dont know.
He's new into rooting and flashing, and so am i, when it comes to Motorola..
I've made the programming cable myself, and i get a battery OK, and OK to program, and i got no troubles with finding the phone in AP Fastboot mode, running the fastboot-moto shell...
And i've even flashed a rom onto it, through RSD Lite v5.6, and it worked allmost as it should.. But it was like it couldnt find the radio or something, because the "Enter pin code" did not appear, and all i get is a message that says "Emergency calls only" on the device.
Could this be, because i havent flashed a proper stock rom?
If so, could anybody help me find the proper stock rom for flashing with RSD?
I'm thinking about going to the shop where he bought it, because they have a working demo-phone in the shop, and then lookup exactly what android version, baseband and so on, the model here in Denmark uses.
I am pretty stucked here, and i think that if i only knew what kind of stock rom i am supposed to go with, i can flash that through RSD, and then afterwards i can root it again and flash a custom rom..
But first i want to get a STOCK ROM onto it, and ive read A LOT on the forums.. I've used at least 15 hours to get this **** working, but its like running the head against a wall all the time..
Hope someone out there can give me some advices
What Rom you tried to flash? Can you give an Link?
I guess you flashed an CDMA Rom, but you got an GSM Device (CDMA is not used in EU)
Have you flashed an GB Rom or an ICS Rom?
I need some informations to get you out of trouble
Thank you for the fast reply
The rom he did try to flash was the "VRZ_XT912_6.7.2-180_DHD-16_M4-31_1FF.xml", which he put on the SD card before using the Batman tool..
So you are correct, thats for the XT912, CDMA.....
The roms i have tried to flash now are all ICS, but i dont get the opportunity to type the pin code, and it keeps saying "Emergency calls only"..
I just tried to flash this rom:
Filename: SPDREM_U_01.6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRICSRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml
Creation Date: 06/09/2012 10:22:40
File size: 1504
Sofware Version: umts_spyder-user 4.0.4 6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.2 1339215326 release-keysSPYDERBP_U_04.10.00R
For Phone Model: SPYDER_U
And it worked, but still no antenna.. Then i flashed another radio in fastboot, but now it bootloops..
If you want to know more, let me know
And thank you the your time!
Ok, the Fastboot File you tried to flash is the right one.
So now let's see how we get this Phone back on Track.
First thing you should do now is to boot into Stock Recovery.
Use the Combination to get into AP Fastboot, when the Phone is off. But instead of AP you select Recovery. You will see an dead Android after an wihile > Press Vol+ & Vol- @ the same time and you're in the Recovery. There you wipe Data (Factory Reset) > Select with Vol Keys and accept with Power.
After you've done that flash the Fastboot again!
Download this Zip and put it on your external SD
http://crackflasher.com/dev/mattlgroff/Blur_Version.672.180.33.XT910.Retail.en.EU.zip
After the RSD flash is passed, boot into the Recovery again. There you select apply Update from external Storage > select the Blur_Version.672.180.33.XT910.Retail.en.EU.zip and wait till it's flashed correctly. After that reboot the Phone and tell me if it's working
Thank you for the answer, and i did exactly what you described..
I still dont got any network.. Shiiiiiit
I'm pretty lost here
That's strange, because the Radio get updated after the Update.zip.
Try that:
Type *#*#4636#*#* and hit the Phone Info.There you can change the Network type. Try to set it to GSM only.
IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM NOW!!
It was a problem with the simcard, so we changed it and it works..
Thank you so much for the advise about the update, i wouldnt have done that without you telling me
Star of the day, thats you!
Glad to hear it worked.
Now have fun with the ICS :good:

No SIM card after ICS

First timer, newcomer to android (from symbian), so please be patient if I ask something obvious to android gurus
So, bought my SGH-717r, on GB.
1. Unlocked it
2. Rooted, installed CMW and did full backup
3. Flashed T879UVLF5modem and my Wind was back on
4. Spent days reading on this forum, getting familiar with android...
5. Decided to upgrade to ICS and applied StockROMs.net-SGH-I717R_Rogers_1_20120628212445_558luhzx6e Rogers ICS update. There was a .dll file in that zip, although I unpacked only tar file and put on my SD for flash.
6. Everything went well, got my Rogers ICS
7. Unrooted again, and then...
8. Tried all possible modems for Tmobile (to get me on Wind) and every time I got "no SIM card".
Also, my systems showed
- unkown IMEI
-unknown modem etc..
2 days of reading on this forum and elsewhere and...
9. Went to CMW to restore original GB when things were working. Yes, I got my Wind HSPA working, but I am on GB
How to get ICS? What did I do wrong?
Thanks
Where you able to get a solution? The same thing happened to me.

Since you are flashing, why don't you try one of the custom ROMs(black star, cyanogenmod, rocket, crash, etc...) out there. They are rooted and cleansed.

same here - official Rogers ICS rom - flashed blaze, telus, and kid ICS - no sim detected..."insert sim card to access network services"
Yikes ....
This is the 5th device I am aware of with this condition...
2 of which went in for repairs.
This is an ugly trend that's forming .....and I spent 3 days trying to fix a device like this ....and never found a solid solution.
On 3 other devices that now work .....the users were able to downgrade to GB and repair the sim issue.
I can't say that this fix will work ...but I'd say that at least 60% of the users have recovered successfully using this method ....g

[How-To] Unlock ATT/T-Mobile on 2.3.5 OTA

IMPORTANT: This guide is for users with a Motorola Photon 4G (MB855) running the 2.3.5 OTA update only. For the lucky ones still running 2.3.4, you want this thread. For those of you who don’t know what version of Android you are running, DO NOT try this. Please read these forums carefully and learn everything you can before attempting this.
This guide is based on the work of halfevildruid and his thread for unlocking GSM for Photon users on 2.3.4 with unlocked bootloaders. All users should take the time to carefully read through that thread here and keep in mind that it was written for 2.3.4/unlocked bootloader users. Some files and steps in that thread will not work on Photons that have had the 2.3.5 OTA applied.
Unlocking US GSM Carriers on 2.3.5 OTA​
Before You Start:
Doing this will remove the domestic GSM carrier lock on the Sprint Photon running 2.3.5 OTA. This process will most likely break your ability to return to Sprint service, so please DO NOT DO THIS if you want to keep your Photon running on Sprint. There are ways to fix this, but none have been tested on 2.3.5 OTA devices. As far as I know, this method has been confirmed to work on three phones (including mine), so consider this experimental and high risk. I am not responsible for bricked phones, warranty issues, cats chasing dogs or hot snow falling up if you try this.
Things You Need:
1.Windows PC (tested on Win 8) with the following software installed:
-Motorola USB Drivers [Download]​-RSD Lite [Download]​-ADB Tools/Android SDK [Download] (Not really necessary, but helpful if you have USB issues.)​2. Micro USB cable and wall charger (needed for bootstrap recovery)
3. Standard (full size) SIM card for US GSM network. (ATT/T-Mobile/Straight Talk)
4. Micro SD card (not necessary, but good just in case)
5. Motorola Photon running 2.3.5 OTA ONLY
Files You Need:
1.Full US Cellular Electrify SBF [Download]
-1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.5-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0-19-release-keys-signed-USC-US.sbf​2. Unbrick SBF [Download]
- 2.3.5_45.4.13ota_unbrick.sbf​3. Electrify/Photon (almost) One Click Root [Download]
-su.zip​4. Bootstrap Recovery [Download]
-MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.apk​5. Peetr’s Hybrid Locked 2.3.5 ROM [Dev Thread/Download]
-HybridGBv20locked.zip​6. KDDI Radio [Download]
- KDDI_Radio_udate.zip​
If any links do not work, most can be found at www.motosunfire.com.
Steps
1. Backup Your Stuff!
2. Shutdown phone and remove SIM/SD card (if applicable)
-Tip: Leave your battery cover off. There’s going to be a lot of battery pulls…​3. Open RSD Lite on your computer.
4. Start phone in RSD mode:
-With phone unplugged hold volume-down and power
-It should say fastboot in the top left corner, press volume-down until RSD appears
-Connect phone to computer
-Press volume-up to enter RSD mode​5. Select the full US Celluar SBF in RSD lite and press start.
-This process takes a few minutes and will end in an error, this is normal.
-The phone may hang on the dual core screen, if so pull the battery.
-The phone will either do two things:
-Bootloop with the US cellular logo
-Boot normally to home screen​-In either case, pull the battery and follow the steps to enter RSD mode again.​6. Once you are in RSD mode again, flash the Unbrick SBF
-This should not end in an error, but RSD may say you need to manually reboot your phone, this is normal.
-Once your phone reboots you may experience bootlooping, if so do a factory reset (See below)
-With the phone off pess vol-down + power
-Press vol-down until Android Recovery is shown, press vol-up to enter.
-Press both vol-up + vol-down to see menu.
-In the recovery screen, use the volume buttons to scroll and select factory restore.
-Press power to wipe the phone.
-When complete, reboot phone and you should successfully boot to home.​7. Once you have flashed the two SBFs, you should be able to get to the stock US Celluar rom.
8. After everything has loaded, you need to obtain root access. (See below)
-Make sure all USB drivers are installed on your computer.
-Enable USB debugging mode on phone (System>Applications>Development)
-Unzip the su.zip on your computer and open root.bat, the program will take you through the rest.​9. Once rooted, place the KDDI zip and Peetr’s ROM on either the internal or external storage.
-This is also a good time to install your SIM card.​10. Install the Bootstrap recovery and follow the instructions to boot into recovery.
-Remember: You need to be on AC power to get into Bootstrap recovery.​11. In recovery, flash the KDDI zip and then Peetr’s ROM
12. After installing the ROM, flash KDDI again.
-Flash KDDI as many times as you want, it will give an error but will still work.​13. Reboot phone and enjoy the GSM radio.:highfive:
-If you bootloop again, just do another factory reset. Peetr’s ROM will still be there.
-You may have to root and install Bootstrap again.
-It never hurts to flash KDDI one more time just to be sure.​
See next post for Q&A
Q&A
When You’re Done:
Q: How can I go back to Sprint?
A: The only way that worked for me was by flashing 2.3.5. Photon 4.5.1A-1_SUN-254_13 from this thread. This will take the phone back to mostly stock, but there may be residual radio issues.
Q: What carriers can I use now?
A: Any GSM carrier that uses a standard SIM card. These include:
-ATT (3G)
-T-Mobile (2G/EDGE unless you live in a re-farmed area.)
-Straight Talk (3G w/ATT SIM, 2G w/T-Mobile SIM)​
Q: Can I unlock my bootloader now?
A: Nope. This only unlocks the GSM radio.
Q: Can I install a different ROM than Peetr’s hybrid?
A: SIM unlocking has only been confirmed to work on Peetr’s locked hybrid rom.
Q: I’m pissed at Motorola for canceling the ICS upgrade. How can I sleep at night?
A: As of right now (and probably forever) there is no way to install any version of Android higher than 2.3.5 on any Photon with the 2.3.5 OTA. However, Peetr’s ROM can be modified to make it look and function like ICS. Planters76 has made an excellent theme for the hybrid ROM that can be flashed in Bootstrap. It can be found here.
Once you flash that theme there are several applications on the Play Store that replicate the ICS/JB experience. Developer Moblynx offers replacements for the clock, camera and gallery. Mobint Software makes home and lockscreen replacements as well. I’m not affiliated with these developers, but their work is solid. This is as close as were going to get to ICS on 2.3.5.
Q: Which developers contributed to this?
A: halfevildruid, mof9336, peetr_, Noncs, Lightsword1942, Planters76, and many others. If anyone else would like to be mentioned, let me know and I’ll add you in. Without these developers we’d be left out in the cold, so give them some thanks.
Q: Who are you and what are you doing here?
A: I am not a developer myself, so just think of me as the person gathering all of the information and trying to simplify it. I can’t stand planned obsolescence, so the Photon is a sore point for me. I’ve stayed in the shadows before now because I haven’t had a reason to speak up, but the locked down OTA and cancelled ICS update bugged the hell out of me. I was in the first soak test for the 2.3.5 OTA, so I had no warning that Motorola was about to screw me and many others. If I can help anyone else that was locked down eek any more life from their phones, then I’ve done my job.
Q: I’m lost! Can you help?
A: Just reply with your questions and I’ll try my best. Keep in mind that I am not a developer, so there are some questions I may not have an answer to.
Finally, if anyone finds any incorrect information in my post or some other error, please let me know so I can fix it. I’d like to prevent any unnecessary phone damage if possible.
Works great. thanks.
now 3G shows 4 bars instead of 1 earlier.
I had to use libmoto_198_7
peetr's ROM is cool. and I like the keyboard!
great work.
Works, but WIFI shows error
I followed the steps and I have my Sprint Photon working in AT&T. But the issues is, the Wifi shows error and doesnt start at all. is there something that can be fixed. Also, How can I get my Google Play up and running. The market icon in the stock Peeters ROM doesnt seem to work and time and again just goes to a browser Window.
Thanks a lot for compiling the steps here...
The combination of a WiFi and apk error makes me think that the ROM needs to be flashed again. Also try downloading a new copy of the zip in case the first one was corrupted. If that doesn't fix it, there was another zip floating around the dev forums that fixed WiFi and MMS issues on the USC ROMs. The file is USCMMSWIFI.zip, I just don't know exactly where it is. As for Play store issues, look around for a recent copy of vending.apk or a flashable zip version and install it manually.
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
flashing 2.3.5_45.4.13ota_unbrick.sbf at the end fixes wifi issues.
Thanks portman and makakalo. I will do the same. I found the USCMMSWIFI.zip, but it is not in a SBF fashion. Any steps that I could follow to include this fix would help me. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!!
Reflashing Peetr's ROM didnt help with Wifi
I reflashed Peetr's ROM, but still stuck with WiFi Error...Installed USCMMSWIFI.zip using Bootstrap Receovery Mode and the installation completed. Yet, Wifi Error is persistent and cant use Wifi
If you haven't already done so, do what portman suggested and flash the unbrick sbf again. If that still doesn't fix it the only other thing I can think of is going back to stock and redoing the entire process. You may need the 254_12 radio sbf and libmoto zip as well as the 254_13 modules zip to completely reset. Those files are in the 2.3.5 sv2 unbrick thread in the dev forum.

Dear all
Thanks..Got it working. Realized that there was some issue in the Peetr's zip file downloaded. Went through the process meticulously after redownloading and got my phone working in an amazing manner!! Thanks a lot to all.

Ram
Thanks for putting this together, I am still waiting on my SIM, should be in the mail today.
Just one question on the root method..does it really mater which root method I use?
The last time I rooted this phone I used torpedo direct v1.1
I seem to be stuck in the unbrick sbf??
Manually powered up my phone a couple of times.
Never mind stuck in bootloop...DOH!
Wipe data/cache
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
Something strange
I was stuck in a bootloop after flashing the Hybrid ROM/kddi and I could not even get to bootstrap soo, I went back to the beginning and after the first SBF step the phone starts normally and my baseband is N_02.29.04P.
Now I have a US cellular phone with a GSM radio:silly:
The phone is not rooted at this time nor did I run the unbrick sbf.
I am tempted to use it like this to see if I can activate it on my carrier...heh why not.
Update:So what does the unbrick do? Do I need to run it?
wifi works now and it did not work before the phone seems fine, still want to root and load bootstrap though.
My carrier cannot activate me until after the holiday, but the phone shows me on the Tmo network.
After flashing the unbrick sbf, my phone is probably bricked as it is now stuck on : Failed to boot 4, starting RSD mode
Any idea how to recover ?
Thanks !

As many times as I have done this you would think I would remember that, but no.
After wipe data/cache I got the hybrid rom to load and ran fine except I could not get the radio to work??
Tried rebooting several times, reinstalling kddi several times, but no go.
Fortunately I made a backup, so went back to USCell ROM and the radio was back

The failed to boot 4 means there's a problem with that partition meaning, whether its corrupt or not there, it just won't boot and will relay that if to you.
To recover, I'd imagine that you need to try the steps over after wiping your data/cache but to make sure that the phone boots after flashing a full sbf.

you need to flash anyone of the following using bootstrap recovery
198_7 radio sbf ----- 198_7 libmoto_ril.so
254_12 radio sbf ----- 254_12 libmoto_ril.so
(thanks to Peetr_)
in my case 198_7 radio sbf ----- 198_7 libmoto_ril.so did the trick even when my phone had a locked bootloader.
after this flash KDDI radio

I flashed the 254 before and it was a no go for the radio.
I just did a backup and just to be clear on what I need to do:
wipe data/cache/dalvik
flash hybrid ROM
flash 198_7
flash 254_12
flash radio
and I should be golden, correct?
thanks
as a side note:
the phone is currently working great with the usc rom except the network shows T-Mobil the 'e' gets loped off and I have not actually activated the phone yet because my carrier was closed yesterday(wonder why) they said after Wednesday I should get an email.

Thank God, I thought I was the only one with the T-mobil issue. It happens on every ROM. I noticed if I dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone info, it sticks the e on the end for a little while but other than that, I randomly have it.

Calm down. You found the solution yourself. That exe file is the ruu. Relock the bootloader put the phone in fast boot. Then run the program on your computer

So it didn't work..Also it said I have version 1.29.631.4 and this is 1.26.631.4 .. wouldn't I want the newer one? I never used a rom exe like this.. only flashed different rom zips from here.. the 3 available.
Also I am not posistive I MIGHT have used a "flash kernal" on one of the rom zips the android revolution one the very first time I installed it...
using "One_M7_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0" that is available here on at&t htc one part of forum. Then I kept reading and flashed it using recovery mode... and the rom worked well everything was fine except wifi... then today I flashed the others like I explained before trying to fix wifi and now the internet won't work as well. but the rest of the phone functions as it should and my carrier network works fine i can txt / call .
I follow your steps and it said this when I ran the exe..
ERROR[132]:SIGNATURE ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your android phone.
Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again.

I have the same problem too,my HTC One wifi keep saying turning on and then error after root, i tried using the wifi tether app but its not working, any one can help please?
I've re-read your OP and you don't have the correct RUU for your device. You have an M7 not a Puccini, anyway like the At&T model a RUU for rogers doesn't exist yet.
As for fixing your wifi, your best hope is to restore your nandroid backup (I hope you made one) or find a Nandroid for your device. I know there's a thread over on the International forums with Nandroids in it, maybe find it there or make a request there.
