It's impossible to lose your IMEI all because of a reboot

IMEI Wiped
I have the international GS3 and got it unlocked with a code and it worked fine on Orange network, while the phone is on Three, so then i flashed Omega 7 and rooted and it will no longer detect the Orange network, its just a circle with a line through on the status bar.
I thought maybe it wiped the unlocked but checked and it still says the phone is unlocked so i thought i would test and put back in the Three sim and it worked fine and then i had a old pay as you go o2 network sim and put that it and it gets a signal and the option to top up.
So i thought maybe the sim is faulty, and put it into my iPhone 4S and it gets signal and reads it, i followed the instructions and revered back to Stock to see if that fixed it but still the same problem.
Anyone have any ideas why or how to fix this?
Check your IMEI number

How would that help?

If your phone lost it's IMEI number, it will revert back to a default-number.
Some networks still accept the phone with that number but most don't.
Just checked with the three card in usig *#06# and a imei comes up so it can't be that or should I t do it with the not working orange card in?

IMEI is your device ID. Does it match the IMEI-number on the box or under the battery of your phone?
If not, you're on a generic one.
Yep its the same as the one on the box. I hm

Try another Sim and also check the Sim is locked into the receptacle properly.

I've tried two other network Sims and both work as well as the orange Sim works in my I phone.
Weird thing is when the orange sim. Is in the phone it shows the apn correct for orange but I just get the circle with line through where the signal should be.

CSC includes Orange ????
Network settings entered manually if not .

Your SIM might be locked to your iPhone's IMEI or does it work in other devices?
I've only heard a few reports of such practices and none so far with Orange (regardless of country)
As above....check apn settings
I checked apn under three and the orange wasn't there. I put in orange sim and three apn is gone and orange are there and the correct settings but still the same stop sign looking symbol where network signal should be.
Not sure what csc is.
It worked before in the g3 before I flashed to the omega rom so don't think it could be locked to a phone

phone's imei doesnt match true imei
hello,
what does it mean that the imei given by the phone doesnt match the original imei written on the back of the phone?
If for some reason the rom you put on your phone screws up the IMEI and replaces it with a generic IMEI you now have a different IMEI than before. This was happening with the SGS2's a while back when flashing certain roms... Was fixed pretty fast and haven't heard about it happening again BUT there's always a chance and no guarantees...
Is there anyway to fix it back without any backups?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
It's actually happening quite a lot with the S3, especially the US-versions
Some people have claimed it to have been fixed when flashing a Stock ROM through Odin, but should it not be fixed then you'll need to have it repaired by Samsung.

There have been a few users claiming to have fixed it without Efs backups in the sgs2 forum (from fading memory). Have a search there, as any method will /should be similar
Worth a search/try, or as posted above, will need to return to Samsung

Use "k-tool" to backup your imei and keep it in a safe place(upload to dropbox and PC) and use APN manager to backup apn settings. Btw is a brilliant app to have when traveling
Edit:u can recover your missing imei nr. But be sure to have the original efs folder,especially NV-data.bin most not have tampered with

i have the same problem
brand new phone
don't recognized the sim card , try few
euro model , factory unlocked
how can i flashing a stock rom ?
thanks
Hello everyone,
Last night we updated an s2 to the original ics, using the ota.all went well during the presidure, but later we found out that it can't receive calls, or make any calls, and it cannot register to the network.The Sim is greek, and the phone was never flashed with room in the past, everything was original from Samsung.
Amy ideas?
But it does ask for pin code and reads the sim card?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
No pin, doesn't ask for it.nor locs the screen.
I looked in apn and there is nothing there.
So it doesn't recognize sim card?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I guess not.
But we have replaced it with a brand new card,same number and network.
And is the new card working?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Have you tried to input a new APN? You can get the specific APN for your carrier with an internet search or a phone call to your carrier.
The new is not working either.i tried the apns ,i have the same carrier.But it is not able to save them.
The phone is working fine when i put my own sim in it.
Go to about phone and see if your imei is empty. If it is empty then your efs got corrupt and I guess ypu don't have backup of it. If you do have a backup then restore it. Otherwise I hope you still have warranty left as your going to need it.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Imei is there,checked it with both cards
So, after searching alot,i have found out, that if i disable pin it all works fine.But the screen doesn't lock, and i can't use pin.As soon as i enable pin again then no more calls.
Any ideas?
Search for keystr.

Did you back up your efs? Check your imei and see if it is correct. Try flashing to a stock through Odin.

Yes I have the correct IMEI.
I do not know the exact stock rom. Could I know it by the IMEI? The phone from SFR France.

Any stock rom should do. And also try to use another SIM card. Your phone may also be network locked. Download galaxsim from play store and check the lock status.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I checked with *#7465625# and it says network lock off. all off.
Does it mean the phone is unlocked. In fact, I tried several stock roms no help. last one is I9300XXBLG6.
Yeah your phone is unlocked. Remove your sd card if you have one. Check your mobile network settings. Different network sims or different Sims but the same network?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I did what you told me. Nothing new. When I click on Setting/Mobile Network/Network operators/Search network, (Searching) flashes for moment and stops with nothing.
Do you have a serial number when u check settings?

Where did you get the phone from?
Samsung Service center is your only option, take the phone box and proof of purchase if you have it.
But run triangle away and go back to the stock rom that you got with the phone

Thank you very much and my best regards.
my imei is messed up the guy i got it from unlocked it from the galaxy unlock app which finds my unlock code and so when i try to call up samsung and give them my imei they say they cant find the phone and so do any of you guys know how to fix that
Your imei is located under your battery on a sticker on the phone. Call your carrier and give them the correct imei to enter into their system. No need to call Samsung.

I was messing around with Rogers GS2 LTE i727R to use it Mobilicity (AWS). I had to flash a T989 ROM (T-mobile) and radio, and somewhere along the way, I messed up and IMEI disappeared.
I just started from scratch (factory reset/flash rom/flash radio) and IMEI returned and the phone is working.
You may want to completely wipe the phone and flash your rom/kernel/radio carefully.
Oh, and make sure your phone is unlocked as well.
