Heed help with i9300 that has null imei

A friend asked to replace the screen on his i9300 as i've done a few before,
The phone was fine until after I fitted the screen, no signal, looked at the imei its null with baseband unknown. the phone was working before I changed the screen as he was using the phone when he come to mine to drop it of.
now ive spent three days trying to fix this phone, with no luck. being reading many threads all over the internet about upgrading
the rom etc. still the same tho.
I managed to get a cheap z3x box on line, but that cant fix this either.
here is a log from z3x

Weird if just changing the screen corrupted the efs but irrespective how it happened you need a backup of the efs folder to restore. If you don't have a backup then service centre required.
If you have a box then read the dead boot thread in general forum, the later stages might work.

No efs back up.
what you mean by if I a Box? what box?
ive looked for the dead boot thread but cant find?
I've cp unknown now too.
Is they any links for i9300 firmware that is mg5 please? And mg2 modems please?
I really need to fix this i9300
Also if I post my efs backup from the phone can someone check it to see if it's missing any needed info?

Hi, I honestly have no clue, what the error means, but did you try to start the program as administrator? Rightclick it and select start as admin. Maybe it's just that it requires more permissions and due to the lack of it, it can't read or write something. Also do you have usb debugging enabled? And did you confirm the: Do you want to allow access from this device prompt on your phone?

Need help on odin and choosing the right firmware[ Soft brick ]

Hi,
So I tried rooting my Samaung Galaxy Grand Prime+ (SM-G532F/DS) but it failed and now it won't turn on. I can go to download mode and that's it. No recovery mode. When I turn it on it gives a message "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC app."
I tried Smart Switch but the problem is it does not accept my phone model name [SM-G532F/DS] however if I change it to SM-G532F without /DS it will continue to ask my S/N but when I type it in and hit ok it asks me to check my model name and s/n. What can I do?
And after reading on and on about "soft brick" and failed root attempts I found out that I can manually flash firmware to fix the soft brick issue. But it still has some problems, I don't know where and how to choose the right firmware, and how to install it.
tl;dr Smart switch doesn't accept my phone model name and s/n. And I don't know how to choose the right firmware to flash using odin.
What I have:
Access to pc.
Samsung drivers are installed.
My phone's model name and serial number.
I enabled developer mode in the settings before it was bricked and turned on oem unlock and usb debugging so theoritically it should still be available.
What I know:
Smart Switch does not accept my phone's model name with serial number. So it won't work.
Android version: 6.0.1
It was Saudi Arabian variant, bought from saudi.
What I don't know:
How to choose the correct firmware to be used with odin.
My phone software details.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
MODEL: SM-G532F/DS
SSN: -G532F/DSGSMH
FCC ID: A3LSMG532F
Help me choose the right firmware please.
