I need these files please if somebody can share:
- modemst1 - modemst2 - fsg
Due to a kake ROM now I have corrupted my EFS partition and need those files to bring alive my device. Please help.
I have found MEE7 files in the web but I guess don't have to use on my phone.
Please, somebody with MEG7 can help me? I will be very glad to buy him a beer.
Hey there! I'm not currently at home now, but I can give you a direct link to NEGMIFA Rom(for Global Version phones), you can extract files you need by yourself.
Download_V9.5.11.0.NEGMIFA (as you can see, its an old version)
OR you can download_fastboot_ROM, and flash it with MiFlashTool, it should solve your problems.
Have a nice day.
P.S. If you cant download something by any reason, I'll make a mirror on googledrive or other filehost in an hour or two when I get at home.
I read somewhere that modemst1 and modemst2 contain IMEI so the rom doesn't have those files.
Fsg is also related to IMEI
Well, as far as I understand your phone not working at all, correct me if I wrong. So my algorithm to make it work is to flash it first(fastboot), doesnt matter with or without your IMEI(I think it'll be 0000), then you can search on xda or whatever, there was a bunch of threads with IMEI "problems", I'm sure you can find the right one.
Have a nice day.

Hi Dunaldo, thanks for your time.
Currently my phone is working on official miui 10 developer rom, it was bricked until I could open the bootloader and install twrp.
Now, the problems I have are:
1.- Baseband "UNKNOW"
2.- When I digit *#06# on the dialer: "UNABLE TO GET IMEI"
So I was reading a lot in the forums, and ,my conclusion is: I have corrupted the EFS partition or probably I lost it, then I need first to solve the "baseband" problem, for that I need the modemst1 - modemst2 - fsg files of my exactly device model and then I can get back mi unique IMEI.
By the way do you have the MEG7 model?
And thanks for your suggestion about flashing fastboot rom, I will try once more, don't think will resolve the efs problem but I'll try anyway.
I have the same problem & i have used the files ur looking for but everytime i restart the phone my baseband again becomes unknown ?? if u want i can give u the file link tomorrow but its no use
Search Qcn file in google for your model . restore it using QPST and write your imei thats all tested MEI7 works perfectly
Any solution?

so this is just backin up the 2 efs partitions, modemst1 and modemst2? but in app form instead of my script?
the efs backup function has also been added to TWRP.
this could be useful until TWRP is working for the D802 international variant.

you should probably create a new thread and get help for this. Like the link in the OP said, efs folder are unique to each device because it also contain imei/esn number. Using someone else back up wont help you with your phone. maybe theres a different fix.

We could if we had something that would allow these files to be converted to a format that is readable by a hex editor, and then convert them back. I have been trying to find something like this for a while but I can't find anything. If anyone knows and would be willing to share, I am sure a great many of us would appreciate it!
Tks @hoangnova :good:
This is my last ditch effort. Small back story: I somehow wiped EVERYTHING on my G2. EFS partition, ESN, data, SIM info., everything with dialer codes. All of my network information reads "unknown". I tried many methods from here on the forums to get this data back and it turns out I have lost my EFS partition- DNA for the network? I sent it to LG to get it fixed, having done a hard reset and leaving no trace of root. They sent it back without even asking and did no repairs. The note said "board bent". WTF?? How does the user bend the main board, especially when I never opened it? They voided my warranty and ripped off my IMEI/MEID sticker from the back of the phone.
Anyways, I am here with a brick. No network still. Here is what I have done:
1) .tot method to ZVC. Several more times... once to ZV7 where I lost touch capability. Luckily saved my arse with a micro->usb cable and a mouse.
2) attempted to root with ioroot25. Failed because the phone WILL NOT find recovery mode. adb, voldown+pwr then again from power off, and apps are unable to force the phone into recovery mode. I assume it is possible that my recovery mode is deleted?
3) Would have tried all of these "rewrite your efs/imei/etc" things but I can't do any without root. Can't root without recovery, can I?
4) Spent the last two weeks scouring the internet for a fix and going back to my Epic 4G temporarily.
Please help me, has anyone seen this before? Can anyone help me fix it? I am to the point where I would pay to have it fixed. Any experts out there? XDA has yet to let me down... I just need to know if I can fix it or if it is a brick so I can go searching for an old Sprint GS3.
Thanks all,
baublitz

My phone also encounted the same problem after flashing Custom ROM from needrom.com. Did you make a full backup of your phone? If not then it's too bad and you might need to sent your phone back to service center.
You can try this link for tutorial and see if it works to recover your IMEI and baseband, if not your last resolution is send back to service center.
http://lenovop780en.blogspot.ro/2014/01/faq.html
And after your phone back from servicing, next time remember make a full backup incase anything goes wrong. Post #3

Hi,
I think u need to flash your rom once again.
Use flash tool to install the same.
But before that connect your phone
and go to format- format whole flash-ok.
For this u need to select the scatter file from your firmware.
After this download your firmware( not firmware upgrade)
also click on check box for D/L.
After flashing new firmware you need to use above steps which I described earlier.
Good help you.

Hi I wonder have you resolved your issue or not? Actually I found a consider temporary solution.
With your phone rooted, using any root explorer, navigate to /data and copy the nvram folder to your memory card (as a backup). Then delete the whole nvram folder in /data. Wait a while, your phone should have signal and baseband already. If works let me know, I will tell you what to do next step.

If I were you I would just return it to Elephone because your problem is their fault 100% and not many will share their userdata normally

Ok try to boot to recovery using adb.
1. Start MTKDroid tools.
2. Push the adb button on the bottom right corner of droid tools
3. start your phone while connected to the pc
4. watch to see if droid tools loads your phone info :fingers-crossed:
5. If it does go to the adb command prompt and enter.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Wipe everything you can from the options in recovery.
It can take a while so go have a cup of tea.

now i wisch any *.img flash seperatly to the phone with your scatter.txt and show wich *.img is damaged to unbrick my phone.
i ask you to send me any or all *.img from your running phone, so i can test it, but any complet rom also can help.

Verify all backups
Important Note: When you backup the system.img make sure to set it large enough to capture all the data on the partition if unsure just backup the entire system partition
Please use Hex Edit to quickly verify the read backs have captured all data !!!!

Free version can be found here: http://www.hexedit.com/index.html
Great online Hex to file size and vice versa (other way around) MB, GB etc is HERE THANKS TO THEM FOR THAT :good:

bigrammy THX for scatter.txt
(Solved finger trouble) Userdata!!!! Wrong size????
WARNING!!! The Start Address of the USERDATA is WRONG or NOT WHAT I WANT!!! IT will give you a 12GB Backup THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED it also needs to be corrected on the SCATTER FILE!!!
I have noticed while making a Backup of the USERDATA it produced a 12GB backup using the /partinfo information from the phone. This is just a full Phone Backup pretty much. ROM Dump It may be handy to Restore a device but must be wrong for just capturing the actual userdata info
So How do we find the ACTUAL Userdata Maybe this is the reason why MTKDroidTools stopped doing userdata backups in later versions
So I need to do some more digging around.
Any Help regarding this will be appreciated :good:
Panic over guys I forgot to Name the readback userdata.img It seems when you forget to name it eg: leave it as ROM_0 the flashtool will ignore your inputs and just dump the whole ROM. :laugh: Still 6GB though
You can use this handy online Hex converter which will give you the hex value of a size or vice versa. Here and thanks to them for the easy to use tool :good:

Yes bro you can and probably should readback all partitions manually just once for safe keeping :good:
MTKDroidtools used to do everything for you but with our phone you must do it manually now :crying:
Remember to increase the system.img size to at least 1GB to be sure you capture all the data mine is around 0.95GB actual size at the moment but remember it will increase as you install more things app updates etc etc
I have attached a picture below.

Ressurected it a week ago via connecting the pins in the back and flashing via edl.
I have unlocked it officially, as I had it unlocked before.
I have flashed TWRP & latest official RR, but it bootlooped, because my /persist partition was freaked out, so I reflashed it from the extracted fastboot ROM and I booted.
However, both my IMEIs dissappeared, and I only had the first IMEI from the back of my phone. So I calculated the second IMEI per a tutorial (from a Czech site) and restored both IMEIs via the Qualcomm QPST xqcn file, verified both IMEIs are showing up on my phone and are valid as per online IMEI checkers.
However, the signal didn't work, so I reflashed another mido device's IMEI (I have my original IMEIs backed-up) and flashed latest MIUI fastboot ROM, still no signal.
And here I am, and I am asking you for help..
If anyone can help me or at least point me in the right direction I will be eternally grateful :angel:

"Ressurected it a week ago via connecting the pins in the back and flashing via edl." - are you sure you didn't accidently disconnect the antenna cable from the motherboard end or from the USB board end while doing the tespoint connection to get into EDL mode?

Thank you so much for your reply. I just checked, the cable wasn't disconnected, but I dis-and-reconnected it just to make sure. Still no signal.
I should mention I reflashed my original IMEI and verified that its valid once again. I am attaching links to pictures of the back of my phone disassembled if anyone can spot something wrong: PHOTOS.
Still hoping for a solution.

Okay, starts to be interesting. Did you play with the band selection? Probably the band has been changed to US?
Hope you have Magisk (root) - if not please flash Magisk.
I presume ADB is already installed.
Put the phone to airplane mode.
From a PC open a cmd and issue adb shell
or start a terminal emulator on your phone
Then issue these commands in the shell
su
pm clear com.android.providers.telephony
settings put global preferred_network_mode 10
settings put global preferred_network_mode1 10
settings put global preferred_network_mode2 10
Remove airplane mode.
Restart.
Check again.
If still not works:
Start phone in fastboot mode
Issue these commands from PC cmd:
fastboot devices << just to make sure you phone is recognised
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
It will restart.
Check again.
Anyway, if you issue *#*#INFO#*#* or better known as *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer then selecting Phone 1 or Phone 2 (according to the SIM slot you want to check) in the top right or lower left there is a band-select menu (not in MIUI but in other custom ROMs) so there you are able to select the correct band if you want (that would mean you flash any custom ROM from TWRP or any custom recovery for a couple of minutes, go to dialer and look around)

Tried everything you said in order, still doesn't work. In normal fastboot, fastboot erase modemst1 results in this image isn't allow download. So I used mfastboot and it worked, however still no signal. When I try to switch the band in the options menu, there are two options: Automatic and United States. When clicked, both result in: Set [United States/Automatic] Unsuccessful.
And I just noticed it erased my IMEI again... Maybe the IMEI wasn't really there the whole time?
What is the proper way to flash both IMEIs? (I know them both)

I have the impression that the IMEI wasn't even there..
Flashing it is not possible.
The partition called EFS - in TWRP - is the one storing these kind of IDs.
If you have a backup of EFS you are good to go.
I used to tell people that before doing anyhing (before even unlocking the bootloader)
just do QCN info backup so in case of IMEI / Wifi MAC / Bluetooth MAC issues it's easy to restore..
Your case is a bit more advanced since you have no backup - so you have only one way to get out from this situation:
re-generate the QCN info. I advise you to use >>this<< tutorial (files are attached to the post) to properly re-generate and push back the correct info.
And here's the ultimate guide as well: part 1 and part 2

Okay, I have already followed the first tutorial you linked before, so I have the xQCN files ready. I will follow the second tutorial and report back. Thank you for taking the time to help me.

After that I advise you to use MiFlash and flash a recent fastboot ROM.
Report back when you finished. There should be a way..

Okay, I followed the first tutorial and successfully restored both IMEIs, still not working. I noticed, while flashing the xQCN file, it gives me a message about the model number of the phone not matching the model number of the xqcn file. Is that normal?
Last resort is to follow the second tutorial and redo everything.

Waitaminute.. What is the error message exactly? This is odd, I used that file many times without any glitch, issue or error message.

"The model number in the QCN file and the phone do not match. Do you still want to restore the phone with this file?"

In fastboot mode what is the answer of the phone to the command adb devices and fastboot getvar product? I don't care about the serial but all the rest.

Something is not quite straight here - the QCN file there is for Mido, that's 100% sure.
You started the thread with this statemenet: "Bricked the phone about half a year ago"
What did you do exactly? Once I had a phone - remotely resurrected - that has been flashed with a markw ROM (Redmi 4X) instead of Redmi Note 4X (mido) and the guy experienced something similar.

Pasting from a thread I made back when I bricked the phone:
Here's the situation:
Was on stock MIUI Global 9.5.8.0 with RedWolf Recovery.
Did a backup and flashed LineageOS
Wasnt happy with it and flashed back the backup, including the Firmware and EFS partitions, basically every partition
Bootloop, WiFi and BT driver prolly messed up, cant connect and restarts upon trying to connect to WIFI/BT.
Tried flashing other firmware, various combinations of wipes, flashes, MiFlashTool fastboot rom, nothing helped.
Tried flashing with EDL, the newest ROM gives me "Too many lines in XML file", old ROM flashed fine, but then couldn't even get to fastboot.
Now: Can't get to fastboot nor recovery, phone goes to EDL mode w/ red LED blinking when connected to PC.
QFIL gives me "Cannot read packet header, read 0 bytes", same with MiFlash.

Not a good move. System is up and running, tho, right?
If you go to Settings - About phone - Baseband - what is the baseband version?
Does it looks like a decent version info or say "unknown"?

Don't have the backup.
Sorry for confusing you, the Now section is from the old post, I haven't done anything since my last post.

Decent version. Specifically: 953_GEN_PACK-1.148143.1.163979.1
Also can we switch to some IM like WhatsApp so we don't have to keep pinging each other via quotes? I will post the solution/result in the thread.

Hes lying, it doesn't work like that. You need to flash the file which is the nvdata or nvram or whatever it could be but i have no idea why its not working for now so lets just assume that the nvdata file is unique for the 30k phone.
where do I get nv data. It doesn't work

As per the rules of this forum and xda i am not allowed to post the link but still ill help you so there you go firmwarefile [dot] com/?s=nord+2
I do not remember exactly which firmware file has all the nvdata, nvram and other important partitions so you would need to download all the nord 2 roms from that link. Its completely legit and safe, only 1 important thing is do not flash the preloader from any of those links as that would lead to a very strong hard brick of nord 2 and currently it is not possible to unbrick a hard bricked nord 2 and you would need to visit the service center. Or if you could get a full backup of all the partitions from someone then you can try that aswell but i am telling you that it still wont work because for some reason the so called nvdata and other partitions are unique for this 30k phone. Only hope i can see is wait for the official mtk exploit of 6893 or some other method to restore a hard bricked phone to normal state.
