Where is this TZ/basebanf 2.5.c9 ?

if i flash it right now on my H2O rom,

Will this fix anything, or make matters worse ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
UPDATE:

lets say my OP2's (as per box):

IMEI#1 = 86xx73

IMEI#2 = 86xx65

So after the initial fastboot modem erase commands, & flashing of [MENTION=4729623]benschhold[/MENTION] modem:

IMEI#1 = 86xx73

IMEI#2 = 0

Now,

After flashing H2O rom v2.5.1:

Initially,

IMEI#1 = 86xx73

IMEI#2 = 0

VoLTE started working on IMEI#1, BUT no network was registering on IMEI#2.

But, I just switched the sim's between sim slots & tutned ON-OFF Airplane mode.

& Now,

IMEI#1 = 0

IMEI#2 = 86xx73

But magically, both SIM are working !!!

I have confirmed this with both incoming & outgoing calls on both SIM1 & SIM2.

Now as long as, both sim work, i dont care, what IMEI is shown as 0 or whatever.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
Update 2:

Apparently both SIM work only in a specific order.

i.e.

SIM 1 = Reliance

SIM 2 = MTNL

IMEI#1 = 0

IMEI#2 = 86xx73

Both showing network bars.

But when i switch back to original configuration (like it was on OOS ROM as well as just after flashing H2O ROM):

SIM 1 = MTNL

SIM 2 = Reliance

IMEI#1 = 0

IMEI#2 = 86xx73

Only SIM 1 works, SIM 2 does NOT work.

I will soon check with Jio SIM & Vodafone as well, to understand this better.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
Update 3:

Back to square one,

I changed SIMs to Jio, Vodafone, Rcom, MTNL.

tried various orders.

Very few times SIM SLOT 2, would show network bars, but then immediately be 0 bars, & stay that way.

Now even reverting to original SIM order, won't bring back IMEI#2 to work.

Also,

I only have EFS backups, made from TWRP & an app called Partition Backup.

I do not have modemst1.bin

I think, i'm stuck with H2O ROM forever, with only IMEI#1 working.

OnePlus L2 team/Grarak or any other known dev, have not even replied back, when i asked them to look into this xda thread, & help in solving this mess.

Any update on this?

Did that guy managed to fix it?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pitrus-:
Actually, I don't think there's much anyone but official Oneplus devs can do about it, and they'll probably just ask you to send in the phone for repairs, needing a new mainboard to fix costing muchos $$$.

Hi,

When my OnePlus2's both IMEI#1 & IMEI#2 went kaput, after fastboot erase commands.

I flashed your modem file.

which helped in getting IMEI#1 to work again.

Can you tell me, why did only IMEI#1 started working & not IMEI#2 ?

This is what OnePlus needs to fix,

Their Official downgrade should have fixed this missing IMEI issue.

Moreover, they should have locked the erase option of modem through fastboot, like they have done to lock re-writing of IMEI.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
You are right,

But maybe their fix, would bring back the missing IMEI#2 for us users too, who mistakenly fastboot erased modemst2.bin file.

I have made a post their, i hope, they come out with a solution soon.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarcus81:
I started a support ticket with OnePlus.. Got to RMA status .. was quoted like $138 for mainboard replacement. So I shipped it to Texas .. an Acer service facility. They had the phone maybe 6 hours, said it's fixed and shipped it back 2day air. Haven't received it yet due to the holiday but will be here Tuesday or Wednesday and the shock? No bill.. Curious if it's fixed but... they say it's fixed. Will post if it is fixed as my IMEI was showing 0 as well. Granted this doesn't really help in any way but started a ticket with OnePlus can get you taken care of in most cases. Maybe I just lucked out? But only if it's fixed.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
Was your phone in warranty ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarcus81:
I think so.. I bought it just ... well 1 year as of January 19th. I was told that because I 'flashed unsupported firmware' that I would have to pay for repairs. Not sure what they did but most likely if it's fixed they were able to do it with software or something simple. I was expecting a bill and wasn't even charged for return shipping. I paid to ship it though..

Here's the actual quote from the correspondence...
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osrox:
That means, your phone was fixed, free due to being in warranty.

Btw, when you receive your phone, just check, if they fixed the missing imei, or they replaced the motherboard, meaning you should have NEW imei 1 & 2.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarcus81:
I'll definitely check as soon as I get it.. likely Tuesday at the earliest because of the Holiday... First thing I'll be doing :good:

Update

Whoever has lost their IMEI due to downgrade from 3.5.5 to 3.1, the issue will be fixed in 3.5.6(new OTA). Oneplus has officially stopped the OTA 3.5.5. This is the update I got it from Oneplus service center when they returned the device without IMEI fix.

Whoever upgraded from 3.1 to 3.5.5 and if they have network drops then use the official patch, after that i have not seen any nw drops. I have tested in my device. Don't downgrade from 3.5.5 to 3.1, stay with 3.5.5.

Whoever flashed H2OS v2.5 and have nw drops then flash the new update from H2OS. The nw is stable the same is tested in my device. I have clean flashed H2OS. If dirty flash not works then go for clean flash.
