Samsung Galaxy A3 IMEI Blacklisted, Options? - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General

Hello all
I've got a Galaxy A3 which has it's IMEI blacklisted. This phone is NOT stolen. I was just wondering what my options were (if any) regarding getting this phone working again?
I understand how the IMEI ban works but I'm unsure what sort of options i have if any regarding bringing it back to life.
Any advice please?

[Q] [ASKING] Korean Samsung Galaxy S III SHV-E210K USSD Code Running Problem

Hello everyone!
I'm from Indonesia. I have this SHV-E210K for about 3 months, and it is stressful knowing that I can't check the balance credit. I have search in any forum, and whether it's in XDA or any forum, it's still don't have the answer.
I have read that in S1 I9000 you can just disabling mobile tracker and USSD code will work again. But in this time, it's different matter. I can't use the method from I9000..
There is known problem in my Galaxy S III SHV-E210K with JB 4.1.2 or before at ICS that USSD code won't work. I faced this problem for many days and was unable to use some GSM services like balance checking etc. Normally in other phone, I can check it with just dial *123#, now since I using SHV-E210K the code won't work, so I must change my USIM to other phone to registering the data package or check my phone balance etc.
Please some one help me! I really need this answer! :crying:
*my Samsung Galaxy SIII SHV-E210K never being rooted, it's still official from the first time until now.

Hallo Senoir Member.. I know there is thread about SHV-E210K, but not the page like T-mobile or any SIII with its carrier, so looking the answer from the member from SHV-E210 forum is too hard. :'(
Thread SHV-E210 is too silent, not like the others which is always crowded, link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710084
ok I will move it to the Q&A

After installing Omega ROM 46.1
What i discovered after installing omega rom is that my IMEI number had changed to 004999010640000 and am no longer registered on my network.
I then went to rom manager as i had a backup of my sock rom i restored it but still no network says not registered to network.
i went to a couple of forums n dowloaded offical stock rom from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005286) still no network no back up nothing and the emie is still changed 004999010640000.
current version on mmy ph is
GT I9300
model 4.1.2
basebande version : I9300xxemb6
kernel version : 3.0.31 -1071725
build number : jzo54k.i9300xxemc3
after installing stock rom from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005286)
So basically:
I get the wrong IMEI number when running stock android from Samsung.
and nothing seems to work as not network
Can someone assist me with this? as i am new to changing roms .
You're going to have to search, as discussion of methods to change a device's IMEI is illegal in many places and cannot be discussed on XDA.
Sorry that it's not much help, but the answers are out there if you use Google properly.

Go to Faqs and Guides and read and post in the EFS/ IMEI thread we do not need yet another thread.
As it looks like you failed to backup your EFS as per the instructions its best to take it to a service centre for repair .
Please read the stickies then if you have any questions post in the sticky thread which is actively maintained. Also its IMEI not EMIE

[Q] No network after Odin flash

Hello all,
I live in The Netherlands and I had bought the Samsung Galaxy SIII from a telephone provider in the Netherlands.
I had an official ROM for the Samsung Galaxy SIII and everything worked ok.
It was working on Android 4.1.2. and I wanted to flash it to Android 4.3. with Odin. It was the first time I ever flashed something in my life so I was very happy that it seems to turn out well.
But I discovered that I have a big problem on my hands know because my IMEI is completly gone, my phone number has become unknown and my network is gone too!
I still can use WI-FI on my phone but that's it!
Does anyone has any idea how this can be solved?
I am aware that there are simulair posts here with this subject but it didn't help me so for that reason I desided to post a new one for this issue.
Thanks in advance!
Follow these guides if they can't help sounds like a service job..
Please tell me you backed up your efs?

[Q] sim card not detected in custom roms

Hi!
I have installed 3rd custom rom that is based on galaxy s5 user interface and thus is the third time I am facing the same problem. Everything runs fine but this doesn't detect my sim card. First I flashed flashingdroid faced the same problem then i flashed efextreme lite v5.0, in this at first the camera wasn't working but solution for this problem was mentioned in the original thread itself. So I flashed the given kernel in the thread and the camera was fixed but again I lost my signals and it said that insert a sim card.
Now I flashed hypermax v8 and again the problem is same, "Insert sim card".
What can i do to fix this??
Please help!!!

Standard-question: is IMEI, shown in 'info', the same as on the label behind the battery?

For IMEI it says "unknown".
Then don't focus on SIM-card but on restoring IMEI / efs-data. Read the recent posts over these items here 1st...

Thanks for your suggestion.
As you told me I did read the latest threads posted here but unfortunately I didn't find anything helpful. As it is I am not concerned with the original imei as far as my phone is working. Also it was working with efextreme v5.0 as mentioned above but after flashing the kernel given for fixing camera i lost the network. Earlier i was using cyanogemod 12 but due to lag and FC'S I had to change the rom. But it was working fine if you ignore the FC and lag however I don't have any idea about what my imei no. Was.
If you find calling and receiving calls belong to a working phone, you've to follow boomboomer's advices for restoring efs-data. Don't understand, why you don't find it, but there is no better.

Could you please share the link.
ONE link is useless. Go one level higher to Q&A and enter 'restore efs' or 'restore IMEI' in 'Search this forum'. Then pick at first the short threads, which are answered by boomboomer. So you'll get an overview and solutions.
(There are also long threads with witchy procedures and only little chance of success. Not very recommendable.)
I have the some problem like you could you get a solution
