Dear lyriquidperfection,

You've done a really great job :)

I have a dual sim ZTE device, the latest Blade S6, octa-core CPU :)))

I can read/write the first IMEI, but how can I repair the second IMEI?

Unfortunately (somehow) it is missing. Although I can use the phone with both SIM cards, some functions do not work due to the missing second IMEI.

I hope you may give the right answer!!!

Thank you in advance!

Unfortunately the Galaxy S6 is an Exynos based device therefore does not have a Qualcomm chipsets so the app will not work with it.

I used this tool on a Galaxy S5 (US Cellular) to repair IMEI/MEID/ESN, and it worked but while attempting to flash to another network the PRL refuses to stick; it will say OK during flashing but always shows PRL Version: 0 in Status. I tried to backup NV ITEMS with EFS Pro and the back said OK but on rebooting the phone I lost Baseband, IMEI and MEID. All of now say unknown. Any elp please? The worst issue is that the phone cannot connect to EFS Pro anymore, it says incorrect SPC, while the SPC is 000000. What can I do to fix this? Anyone?

To change backup location you have to change the location to sd card under the App .config tab.

forcing sim unlock prompt

Hi

I wondered if some kind soul could offer me some advice.

I have a zte blade v which was locked to virgin uk network, I used the blade unlock app form the play store and it appeared to unlock the device, although this was clearly not the case as it was then asking for a sim puk code (even though I was entering it correctly it refused to accept the code and the sim was not blocked). So now when I put in a sim from a different network I get no prompt for an unlock (but I have now paid for an NCK code), so I Was wondering if someone can advise me what NV items I need to set to force the NCK prompt again?

Any advice really appreciated as I need to get this phone running asap after my G2 went up in flames :/

I suggest to try:

be careful NEVER backup userdata partition to EFS Pro Default /sdcard folder, you need to change it to /storage/sdcard1 and insert a real sdcard with enough space,

it is recommanded your are using exFAT instead of FAT32, to avoid 4GB maxium file size limitaion.

until it is stop since no more free space, you should unplug the usb to stop such risky process to destroy all user data.

With EFS Professional, I'm having some problems with "Connection Lost", "No COM Port Selected" etc., when I try NV Tools. But I can access EFS Professional to do the backup of partitions, for example. The problem is with NV Tools.

I tried two versions of EFS Professional (EFS PROFESSIONAL 2.0.62) and (EFS_Professional_2.1.80_BETA) and I tried this program at Windows 10 and at Windows 7.

Well in Windows 7 I can "connect" NV Tools, but only when I select the COM PORT that isn't the same COM PORT that is plugged my Samsung device... Maybe it's why I can't write my IMEI.

A also tried 2 different cables, and all my USB COM ports...

And I don't know whats going wrong... Maybe it's cause I'm using Lollipop? And I have to use Kit Kat to NV Tools works?

Connection lost after any command

Hello,

Is the NV tools supposed to work on LG G3? On the one hand, someone posted (in the G3 forum) that it had worked for him. However, when I try to operate it with my LG G3 (stock LP, rooted), it says that connection is lost after each command I try to send. Phone has USB debugging turned on and available COM ports are correctly shown in the NV tools. If I uncheck the Read Phone and Send SPC when connecting and change the mode to Reset, Power off or Download - they all work.

Would appreciate any help.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lyriquidperfection:
USB debugging is for ADB. NV Tools requires your device to be in diagnostic mode which enables the DM serial port.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Digdis:
Thanks. I have the LGE mobile USB serial port, with which I tried connecting. Is this the one you mean, or is there any other way to enter DM with another serial port (tried searching, but found nothing useful)>
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Digdis:
Just to add: I believe device is already in diagnostic mode, as I enabled the hidden LG menu and selected USB set for Diag. Not sure what else should be done. Again - When opening the Qualcomm NV tools, I see the LGE mobile USB serial port, but sending any command result in losing the connection.

Hey Guys,

So, I've flashed 2x Samsung S2 GT-i9100 devices and one worked perfectly but the other has an issue...

1) I flashed I9100XWMS2_I9100VODLSF_VOD onto each device via Odin

[Successful]

2) I flashed CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.tar & I91001GB_6GB.pit simultaneously via Odin

[Successful]

3) I rebooted into recovery (cwm) and flashed Apolo-8.0-CM-Beta9_Regular-TWRP.zip via CWM in order to get access to TWRP.

[Successful]

4) I rebooted into recovery, mounted internal storage and USB Mounted. I formatted internal SDcard via Windows.

[Successful]

5) I rebooted into recovery again and flashed cm-12.1-20151006-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip and tk_gapps-modular-micro-5.1.1-20150927.signed.zip

[Successful]

6) I rebooted normally, the ROM loaded and instantly you could see that one phone had an issue, one didn't. One shows that there is no sim card inserted... yet there is one inserted, going into Settings > About one device has a baseband of I9100BULS3, where as the one that doesn't have any mobile connectivity shows Baseband unknown.

If I flash back to stock partition tables and then flash I9100XWMS2_I9100VODLSF_VOD mobile connectivity works again and there is a baseband visible.
