So, this same thing happened to me...i happily using 30O and not really any issues and getting good battery life~17 hrs w/moderate use. And no other bugs.

Found the 33R update here on the forums and downloaded it and flashed through TWRP.

Thats when trouble found me, lost network and wifi stuck trying to turn on but never finds wifi. Then reading through xda someone suggested to check IMEI and it was gone. I had NOT done any prior back ups other than Nandroid prior to flashing update.

Restore still didn't fix it.

I tried this (flash ColorOS and CM11) but still didnt fix it. I was bummed as my OPO is very new and I had been happy with it.

CM11 or by restore, windows will not detect it even with drivers loaded. Flashing colorOS would allow windows XP to recognize internal and allow me to send files so i tried custom ROMs and CM stock and Mahdi but none worked. Luckily my TWRP still works and i am able to boot and get into fasboot.

I finally got mine fixed with rooted stock 33R from here on xda!

Now my OPO is back in business!!!

[ONE General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
For those of you that were able to recover, did you lose your entire EFS folder? Mine is completely gone and I don't think this ColorOS trick works either. I've tried it all last night and I fell asleep at my desk :(
[ONE General] tdamocles:
There is no efs folder, just partitions.
[ONE General] dgjenkins:
So I'm curious, how do you know the problem was the EFS? I have EXACTLY the same problem, same AudioFX force close on some roms, same reboot after a few seconds on others. Only I can't even get ColorOS loaded because even though I can adb into sideload mode, I can't sideload anything. I only ever get the message error:closed. I've updated to the latest version of adb, tried both twrp and cwm as recoveries, everything I can think of. At this point I'm stumped.

One other thing. I actually did have modemst1 and modemst2 saved and I've restored them and it does nothing which is why I wonder if this is an EFS problem at all?

Did you ever get a resolution? If so, I'd love to hear it.

EDIT:

If you haven't already, try this. http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061

Like I said, I had previously backed up modemst1 and 2 but simply reflashing them didn't solve the AudioFX and systemui crashing problems. I was able to flash the persist.img and reserve4.img files from the thread mentioned above and my phone is back to perfect condition. If you didn't previously save the modemst* files then you might have to continue with the rest of the script in the OP, but flashing the two files was good enough for me. I'm back with working LTE and everything. Today feels like a nice day again. Now if I only knew what exactly what caused those files to be corrupt or missing I'd feel a lot better!
[ONE General] Yank555:
How I know, because I managed my way through that wizard to the settings about and no IMEI (I thought I mentioned that), was a real pain, though, you have to be fast.

And as I mentioned somewhere, modemst1/2 is NOT the EFS, those are some kind of temp or buffer partitions, present on the Note 3 as well, you can format them, nothing bad happens, they will get regenerated, but if those are corrupt (happened on Note 3), no more IMEI and constant FCs and reboots (on the Note 3).

Also, as proof, on ColorOS my IMEI was present, correct AND working again (phone calls, mobile data), even

after

formating those partitions ! Just no BT nor WiFi, those didn't work there either.

But I found a solution, I filed a claim via Paypal and sent that crappy device back to OP and got a refund force-squeezed out of that lousy company.

Since that day, days feel like nice days again for me, too, enjoying my Nexus 5, which never ever let me down.

OnePlus as a company is a sinking ship, their "faulty device / sold device" ratio goes through the roof, their customer service is not even crap, it's non-existing, and more and more people are squeezing their money back from them via Paypal (OP even try to dissuade people from doing that on their forum, likely it's hurting them financially by now).

Yes, if the device works, it's nice, though nothing special, my Note 3 with a s800 only is faster and has much more options (like S-Pen...), and even if I dislike Samsung and their Knox and efuse crap, is the by far better device. And the Nexus 5 is faster, too, also with a s800 and only 2Gb RAM, but it's not a phablet, lacks the screen and battery size, but it's nothing that causes me any kind of problem, so happy with what I use as daily before and after my OPO adventure.

Though if your OPO stops working and need OnePlus to help you, well then good luck and think of Paypal, those actually do help you, cause OP will let you down, period !

Nexus is

the only way to go

Glad I had a Nexus 5, saved the day, been my daily before the OPO and 48h after getting the OPO. And not even impressed by the device the 48h I could actually play with, slower than the Nexus 5, nothing special on top of the Note 3 (except maybe knock-knock wake, fancy ... but well, can live withouth it).

I have a support call which is slow to say the least I have to wait till next Wednesday over 10 days for them to remote into my phone ???

Will this work for me? or is mine different to what everyone else is describing? what should I do before I start so I can at least get back to where I am now?

Buddy try my steps :

Fastboot erase modemst1

Fastboot erase modemst2

Fastboot erase persist

Next reboot into twrp if you have

Then go to advance and open terminal.. Choose / as location and select. It will open terminal and ask you to input:

make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15

Leave a feedback once done.

[ONE General] edie209:
OK after allot of reading I got fastboot working. I tried your suggestion to erase the modems that put my oneplus into a boot loop.

installed the twrp recovery image and then followed the steps at the beginning of this thread the install was successful but on reboot I am left with a black screen. I seem to be unable to access fast boot or TWRP recovery although the phone does vibrate when the power button is pressed.

EDIT

I managed to flash the Color OS ROM using the Oneplus recovery tool. I then went on to use fastboot to install CM11 and then let the phone upgrade to CM12 I still have no mobile signal but I think I will wait till wednesday and let the support team confirm this.

One good think to come from this is I have learnt how to use fastboot :)

Hi guys, I was hoping somebody could help me out.

I recently somehow nuked my efs, but I did have a nandroid backup of my phone from about a month back, in which there was modem_st1 and modem st_2 file. So I tried restoring the backup in TWRP, but no luck. Still not cellular signals. IMEI is still there, though. The files in the Nandroid backup are .win, not .bin, so I can't flash them in fastboot. Whenever I turn on my phone, it keeps saying "The process ...com.phone has stopped".

Any ideas on how to fix this? Any help is greatly appreciated. :o

I flashed it because my phone didn want to connect with wifi/bluetooth, my sim card wasnt detected, no efs info and random reboots. I hoped it will change it the flash.

if you used the recovery tool and got it running but still no IMEI try:

ran in fastboot 'fastboot erase modemst1' 'fastboot erase modemst2'

installed twrp 2.8.6.0 - unofficial from here

flashed OxygenOS from here *flashable zip is inside of this download*

of course this may or may not work for you so its all up to you on doing it, but that fixed it for me...

1. How do they get corrupted? What's the point of backing up modemst1 and modemst2 if they aren't useful? I've tried to restore both files from another phone's backup and it didn't restore my IMEI, so I agree that they are pretty much useless.

2. How does it get re-generated? Does it grab it from some other partition on the phone?
[ONE General] pankspoo:
It will not work mate

U have to

Fastboot erase modemst1 modemst2

And flash oxygen os (use only 2.8.6.0 recovery)

Its will help u!

Tried it already, didn't work.

I have been at this crap for way too long and got no where. So I bought a new used oneplus which came with Oxygen OS installed. Previous owner had left pics and stuff on there which I wanted gone. Now I like a challenge so i wiped the OS and all completely, no back up mind you. I have another OPO I use for my daily driver which is running Darkobas ROM. I made an .img backup of my OPO and thought it would be as easy as reinstalling that image backup onto the other OPO. Well it installed just fine, BUT, I have no baseband or imei and can't for the life of me get it back. What do you suggest? I have read and flashed and gone factory stock back to unlocked and flashed some more and made zero lead way. Please for the love of all things holy someone help me, lol.

Hi,

I know this thread is for help for OPO users.

But my OP2's IMEI#2 = 0,

after I erased modemst1 & modemst2 using fastboot.

I'm copying text, from another thread, of all the steps I took, maybe someone can help me with a way to fix this.

*********

Hi,

My OnePlus 2 was running Exodus ROM, which had 2 Sim's: Vodafone (2G/3G) & other Jio (Only 4G/LTE).

I read a blog, that In order to increase the download speed from the Jio SIM, preferred LTE Band should be switched (from 3 to 40).

So, I pressed *#*#4636#*#*, >> Phone Info page >> three dot menu >> select radio band >> SELECTED Band mode 40.

Immediately after that,

Vodafone Sim stopped working in any of the SIM-Slots, But Jio sim (4G) was working in both the slots.

*****

Then I ran these commands in fastboot mode:

"fastboot erase modemst1 "

"fastboot erase modemst2 "

"fastboot erase cache"

Immediately, Both the SIM slots stopped working.

*****

Then I flashed "new-modem.zip" from benschhold (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24407100847293158)

which makes SIM-Slot-1 work with both Vodafone & Jio,

But SIM-Slot-2 only detects the sim, but with 0 network bars i.e. "No service| Vodafone"

*****

Clean flashed OOS 3.0.2 via TWRP, but SIM-Slot-2 = "No service| Vodafone".

I tried to manually search for networks,

It shows all the networks 2G & 3G in my city.

But connecting to Vodafone network from the list, always fails.

I think the latching (on to network) mechanism of SIM-slot 2, is faulty.

*****

Then clean flashed Exodus 29/8 build, but no fix.

Later, dirty flashed Exodus 31/8 build, which was supposed to flash the correct radio/modem/baseband on my OnePlus 2, but SIM-Slot-2, still doesn't let the SIM latch on to the network.

*****

Today, flashed "old-modem.zip" from benschhold, which resulted in phone stuck in boot loop.

Started OnePlus 2 Toolbox on PC, & flashed TWRP 2.8.7.0 via fastboot mode.

,successfully booted in TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery.

flashed "new+modem.zip" (by benschhold).

Phone is working again, but SIM-Slot-2 = "No service| Vodafone".

I checked *#06#.

& IMEI 2 = 0

Hi, I lost mei IMEI and SIM was not recognized (Resurrection Remix ROM, trying to flash suhide). So I found this and followed the instructions on first post. Flashed newest official TWRP and flashed the linked ColorOS. Did an factory reset and rebooted. No it won't start anymore. I do not get any picture on the screen. If I press long on the power-button, the OPO vibrates once but nothing happens. What can I do now?
[ONE General] Daastiiyy:
Hi, it has just happened to me... could you fix it? thanks!!
[ONE General] Akantinuris:
Disconnect and restart your phone in fastboot/download mode. In my case it did not do that as long as I had anything connected to the USB port. After that, follow these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unbrick-oneplus-one-t3013732 (that's what the Oneplus employee did in my remote session). This might do the trick for you, I had sudden reboots every 30 seconds. So I rebooted my OPO in fastboot and installed ColorOS 1.0.0 (others would not restore my IMEI). You can download it from my dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o2v9efouazwltco/AAAf1Q3zYAMD4nBlASWnVvala?dl=0

After that everything worked as it was supposed to and I was able to install whichever ROM I wanted to

Hey guys...

Small problem with VC 1.5

I noticed that the command "Ringer - Vibrate" or "Ringer - High / Medium / Low" operates the Phone Volume and not the Device Volume.

Anything I can do to get it to work for the Device Volume????

Because it plays with the Phone Voume, when I use the "Ringer - Vibrate" Command, it just reduces the Phone Volume completely. As a result of this I can't get the phone to switch between Ringer and Vibrate or adjust the Device Volume.

Coming from a Nexus 5, which I don't think has a great reputation from its vibration motor, the OPO just seems to be on a completely different level!

It sounds very loud and chirpy, almost loose and to make things worse, it feels awful!

Threads discussing which ROM/kernel is best are usually subjective and as such often devolve into bickering and flaming. Therefor we try to avoid them when possible.

Since kernels are required to be open source there usually isn't too much difference between them as far as battery life is concerned, but it's still a good idea to review recent posts in their thread to make sure there aren't a lot of people reporting bugs or anything.
