Some how i lost my IMEI from my CHD. I did Formatted my Rom to Stock Rom with SP Tools. Unfortunately I don't have Nandroid/CWM Backup. I restored IMEI manually from Sticker on my Mobile Box pack using Mobileuncle tools. It restored successfully. But when ever I install any Custom ROM, it loosses IMEI and need to restore every time with Mobileuncle Tools. Is there any way to restore my IMEI permanently ? Please help.

I assume that you are using CWM.
1.Flash Stock Rom
2.Repair IMEI via MTK Droid Root Tools
3.Install TWRP. (CWM wipes IMEI for some users.)
I also formated my chd with flash tool but not able to restore my imei
and also my phone is not detecting any simcard
no signal
pls help me

Backing up someone elses folder will only give you their IMEI. by doing so you will void the imei as it cant be on 2 devices. Not to mention no one is gonna give you access to their IMEI number. My suggestion would be to start over from scratch.
Try GSII Repair by helroz. If that doesn't work you will need a professional restore. Mobiletechvideos can do it for a small fee.

There is a great Video on Youtube by Sameer Nagdeve to resolve the Invalid IMEI issue very easily with this MTK Engineering mode. MANY THANKS TO SAMEER NAGDEVE. It was not available before when many of us lost IMEI due to mis-adventures to solve screen flicker problems etc.
WARNING: This is not for everyone. If you dont know any command, just leave it. By just playing around with options without exact known expectations, you may end up in fainted phone.
EDIT: More info in Post # 8 about another method.
Hope this helps some.

AS i SAID i am not a noob i tried this everything.....
any hve solution plzz reply
Sending files via bluetooth
Use only unmodified system apps (of the ROM you flashed) to send files and they will work most of the time.
I am trying to help, but I am not sure it will fix the your issue. before doing anything take a full backup including internal storage.
method 1 : flash old stock ROM 4.1.1 using SP tools
method 2: this is highly risk.. before do this take note IMEI, WiFi and bluetooth mac address.
in sp tool format your phone, so it will wipe everything and install rom using sp tool.
restore IMEI and Mac address using sn writer tool.
method 3 : go micromax service centre
Galaxy Ace i.
I think i may hav deleted the efs folder by mistake but im note sure (im a noob )
so i lost my imei ... emergency calls ,
i tried going to stock , flashing original firmware but no change in imei ,checked out the efs folder using root explorer but it was empty :S
and i hav no backup of anything :/ dint know about the efs/imei...
I can get a backup of the efs from a friends phone (same as mine of course) or any download links would be useful too , just need a way to edit the imei to my own .
anything , any method that is free would be really useful
Thanks and sorry if a similar thread exists but i found nothing too useful to help me as i hav no backup :/
Thanks for reading this

Bro, you posted this question in the wrong device thread. This is Galaxy Ace S5830i Q/A section and not Xolo Q1000 section. Doing any mod intended for Ace on your device can basically brick your phone. Try to follow the steps user @pranjal18 suggested in the following Xolo Q1000 Query section. I hope it works. Here is the link,

I'm speaking entirely from ignorance but did you flash the right variant? E.g did you flash 925F firmware on a 925F device? If I were to hazard a guess (and that's all this is, a guess) I'd say your radio firmware seems messed up (with baseband also being unknown).
What happens when you revert to your original firmware?

Did you flash the 5.1.1 version and then the 5.0.2? Flash the 5.1.1 again.

Sent from my SM-G925F using XDA Free mobile app
Only way to flash it back would be if you made a backup of the EFS partition when you first rooted/installed recovery. The EFS partition contains all the IMEI data which is unique to your phone and flashed at the factory. Since you corrupted it, the only way to restore it would be to flash the EFS backup if you made it or send it back to Samsung for service. AFAIK there isn't a way to recover lost IMEI's if the EFS partition has been corrupted/wiped.
That's ducks really badly

Yeah. I suggest sending it back for repairs and when you receive the new one, root and do a backup of the EFS partition after root. There are several guides online on how to do a backup of EFS using adb/terminal emulator. Keep this backup in a safe location and don't lose it.
You can flash what you want now, nothing will help you. Your EFS partition is gone and without this specific backup you cannot restore the IMEI number. Send the phone to Samsung, they can generate the IMEI number and restore the entire phone.
new trwp recovery have a option to backup.. will post the thread here as little warning in the twrp thread..
Yep I always backup my efs/imei folder as soon as I root phone.
ernell said:
Hi.
I did the same stupid thing a while ago with the same result (without efs backup). Forget about reflashing. The phone is now a mediaplayer.
I asked our local Samsung repair shop, but they wanted to exchange the entire motherboard. Thats how they fix these things in Sweden.
BUT there is an easy way to fix it.
If you have been flashing 5.11, then I dont know, but if you havent, then you can contact an IMEI fix website, and they will help you
by remote service. It works perfectly well. You will get a new IMEI and new serial number. Send me a PM for a link. There is not so many
people doing this, and it took me a while to find the right guy, but guess if I was happy when it was fixed
It will cost you some dollars (60 in my case), and you cannot upgrade to 5.11 later (I dont know why), but thats better than brick.
Hope this helps.

Is that actually legal? I'd send it to Sammy and get it properly fixed, rather than putting up with some dubious services. What if you want to sell the phone later? Have fun explaining why updating to 5.1.1 won't work. I wouldn't ever buy a phone if I heard that someone changed the IMEI. Changing the IMEI is usually associated with a stolen device.
I had the same problem (but IMEI dissapeared), when I flashed 5.0.2 didn't work. But Then flashed 5.1.1 and it worked. Try this. You will loose root.
