Hope it helps

I had similar problem with baseband. Only way to restore it is to flash stable fastboot rom through sp flash and the it will be restored. After that switch do what ever rom you want.

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.
Hi, I repass two phones in one, can not find a signal. I do not know what is meant by this icon:
Please, do not know where is the mistake? thank you

[Q] Badly Needed Help: IMEI Lost after Kitkat Root (SOLVED)

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE! scroll to the bottom if you wanted to know what happened to my phone before it get fixed.
....
I was able to resolved the problem and was able to return back the BASEBAND - PTTYCMD1 missing - dev/radio missing and most of all missing IMEI without using any image from other sources...
With all the tools that i used such as MIUI, SN WRITER, MOBILEUNCLE, AT COMMAND via ADB, NVRAM IMAGE from other users, MTK DROID TOOL (which will not work since baseband and META MODE is damaged), the only thing that was able to fix this is the SP FLASH TOOL with the right phone drivers installed for p780 such as the USB VCOM which is very important!
We are all aware that some of us have tried everything to fix it... I will tell you how..
Just a quick tip: A phone with no BASEBAND and damaged meta mode will not be resolved using restoration tools but only SP Flash will..
Simple - but deadly steps... You need to full format the phone and then download stock ROM using SP Flash tool. But before you do that make sure that the VCOM Drivers are installed. (i saw it being used when the phone auto-detects and SP Flash downloads the stock rom back to the phone).
After restoring the phone back, the baseband is there already and you need to use the SN Writer tool and add the BT,IMEI,Mac Address of the phone. Restart and everything will be back to normal.

Model: Lenovo P780 8GB ROW
O.S: Kitkat
I followed one of the instructions on how to root at this website:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/rooting-tutorial-kitkat-t2835605
After doing the steps below... The phone does not detect IMEI anymore. It is saying invalid.
I tried using MTK Droid Tools -> does not work
MIUI: does not detect phone in meta mode anymore (meta mode is gray when phone open, there is no text that says phone is in meta mode.)
MobileUncle IMEI Restore: I have a backup of this, but after rebooting it still does not have the IMEI.
SN Writer: same with MIUI, it does not detect phone.
tried reflashing back using SP Flash tool: but when I reverted back to jellybean the IMEI is still not there...
Maybe any masters could help me. Lenovo P780 is a nice phone. But i never thought of running into this type of problem wherein i dont have a backup of NVRAM.

Hi there. Post here some screen shots of MTK Droid Tool when you plug the phone.
Look in to the /dev/radio/ and tell us what you have in there.

Hi Stympy,
I already downgraded to Jellybean but the problem still persists. The DEV/RADIO folder doesnt have anything inside it using root explorer.
I attached a screenshot of the MTKDROID Tool Information about my phone.

This is indeed a problem, pttycomand1 file is mussong and your imei could not be readed.

:crying: stympy you broke my heart after i read your comment. I am thinking of seeing a different reply. hahaha.
Anyway I hope you find a solution. i tried searching already cannot seem to find answer to my problem.
Indeed pttycommand is missing ,reason mtkdroid wont work properly.
Even when it goes to meta mode its just gray(?)
The only problem with this phone is it cannot detect any sim right now.
wifi, bluetooth all other functions are working.

Hi again. Here is alot of information about lost NVRAM.
Maybe this will help you.
I did not readed all! I dont have time this days!
If by any chance find something good and restore IMEI share with others and an little tutorial will be most then wellcome!
Use Google Chrome for translation or Yandex translator.
Good luck.
Thanks for your reply stympy. I hope others who has the same issue share their story as well.. regarding how they were able to fix it.
I read it, though english translation was bad. I am scared doing what they wanted to do like cleaning the NVRAM by formatting the phone and checking only the preloader in SP Flash tool and then downloading back an original rom to P780, and start from working back on the NVRAM like adding the Btooth, WIFI, Serial, IMEI codes back again.
The only problem on this phone is the IMEI. Wifi is working, bluetooth as well.
Sad part is pttycommand is missing. The reason why MTKDROID was not working. Even the other tools cannot detect phone in META MODE because its just gray and no words saying tthe phone is in meta just like before.
Hi Stympy,
Is there a website on how to format the phone using SP Flash without the consequence(s) of bricking it? I want to format it and flash stock rom again and see if the IMEI will work back again.

Hi. Flash tool has an option to format internal memory! That depends on flash tool! The tested flash tool for Lenovo p780 are uploaded in my post Rooting Tutorial for KitKat.
DO NOT USE OTHERS! YOU WILL ERASE NVRAM!

There are 2 flash tools on your tutorial.

Thank you very much stympy. I will be looking forward for that.
I think the only way to restore IMEI is to restore using a backup copy of the firmware, probably using mtkdroid tool to create a backup.
If you are on P780 ROW 8GB Model. Maybe you can help by creating a backup copy of everything using mtkdroidtool and posting it here OR if you know a link where to download let me know.
Mine is damaged.. cannot create backup.

Hi all. For those of you who flashed wrong firmware and your IMEI are gone look what happent to me:
1. i flashed a custom recovery who errased my IMEI. That happent because the recovery was 7.5 mb instead of 6 and i was "blind" and careless and stupid and...nevermind
2. after restart surrpriseee.. no IMEI.
3. allmost total panic here.On MTK Droid Tool 2.5.3 IMEI NULL paniC again, and my worst nightmare PTTYCMD1 ERROR FILE NOT FOUND. Panic panic panic, used hard words #@$^%&(&&%$%& words alot.
4. after a little cooling i reflashed my old TWRP back and started to look in my computer for the firmware i allready have installed wass Baralajbi v6 (i like the partitioning of internal memory) firmware from needrom. Before that i tried to restore the NVRAM from TWRP. It did not work. No IMEI has appeared after restoring with TWRP.So i have rebooted the OS back and i immediatly go to /dev/radio where the PTTYCMD1 and the folder was empty.Again *&^%&$%^#^%#%^#^&(*(^* words.
5. Then i have reflashed Baralajbi firmware and after flash i have installed Root Explorer. Again i immediatly go to /dev/radio where the PTTYCMD1 and the folder was this time all the files were there.
6. So if this file PTTYCMD1 is in the /dev/radio folder you can restore your IMEI safely with any tool.
7. I hope this little problem of mine will help you other users to restore your IMEI.
Hi Stympy!
Can you give us a link or instruction how to install Baralajbi firmware?
Worth a try.. have not formatted my phone yet... I am seeing the solution here.. I want to try it!
UPDATE:
I notice a lot of links pertaining to Baralajbi firmware p780 row 8GB.. can you post the link of the same firmware you used?

IMEI Unknown/Sim card not detected after OTA

Ok i need help with my device.
I got a s6 edge SMG925I a while ago, yesterday an update (i guess its called OTA) popped up and i installed it. after the installation was completed but now i'm not registered on network, and i can't detect my SIM card.
Note: my IMEI is NOT blocked.
So far all my efforts were for nothing.
All the info i got so far by searching
Problems:
Not registered on network
when typing *#06# it only show S/N
About device it shows IMEI: Unknown
did not back up the efs folder (but i GUESS the folder is still there and somehow the new stock can't access it)
Android ver. 6.0.1(marshmallow)
Possible cause:
EFS Folder corrupted
Bad Stock installation
Already tried:
Rooting (i wasnt able to root)
Installing latest stock rom
installing the old rom
QPST to change IMEI
Please help me guys
EDIT:
I figured out what happened, my efs got deleted somehow, i got no backup, is there a way around this? help me please

How about a simple reset from the settings menu? But I am pretty sure, if you somehow deleted the IMEI imformation, your chances are not the best. You'd have to find a way, to get write thatbinfo back. What you could do is ask someone else to backup that partition for you and change the values according to your phone ( IMEI, serial number,...) Then flash this partition info back. Good luck!

i think you can install CM recovery (TWRP) then you can process the backup of your old rom from the recovery.
just enter in recovery mode then you'll find "restore" choose all the files ( i think there will be like this: System, Cashe, Efs, Boot...) then hit Restore botton, and wait for it to boot up hope this helps you bro

Try to get the efs partition holding the information from someone else, change it to your IMEI, serial,... And flash that partition to your phone and you should be good. I guess you'd have to use a hex editor to get that done. I am not rooted, so I can't back it up for you.

Redmi 5 plus MEG7 need modem files

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.

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?

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.

Hey there! I hope you are doing well. Could you please tell me the process? I am be so glad if I can recover this phone. I have similar issues like you.
After unlock, i always do a full backup of all block partitions. It saves many issues

Have IMEI, don't have mobile signal, please help...

Hello dear fellow mido users. I am trying to solve a problem here and I would very much appreciate your help on this:
I am running latest MIUI Stable Global flashed from fastboot, I have IMEI, but I don't have mobile signal. WiFi & BT works fine.
How I got here:
Bricked the phone about half a year ago
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.

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.
