Hi, good to know your IMEI fixed. If you want to completely safe, backup UFS, that is absolute neccesary.

In your case, IMEI in UFS is not broken completely, so Combination rom can fix it. In other case, worse one, IMEI in UFS broken, Combination rom cannot solve it.

There are several way solve permanent IMEI lost. First, restore UFS file. Second, goto samsung service, they will change motherboard and inject IMEI. Third, inject IMEI by yourself using third party software (illegal).

Re: IMEI, Network Signal and Baseband is misssing

Hi

I am ready to donate if any expert can help me to restore IMEI.

I am using SM-N9500 samsung note 8 model - hongkong version, i frequently change the roms.. when last time i tried to install a custom rom i lost IMEI and baseband. i am getting error like IMEI-unknown, baseband- unknown, no network and sim cards not working..

i tried installing stock rom, custom roms, it was installing successfully but only the baseband, signal and IMEI are not working. i didnt even back up my EFS folder. So, kindly help me to get back my IMEI.

I have installed stock rom, still no IMEI. now i rooted my mobile and taken EFS backup. is it enough? if yes, pls suggest me the next steps. I also tried installing combination firmware, though is not working, installation was successful and also i am able to see the factory binary logo, after which it will switch off automatically and boot loops. all the time it will open factory binary and immediately it will switch off automatically..

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jun1662:
Hi OP,

I sent form,

my problem is this, I have 2 units S8 and both are in Hades ROM. the other unit seems a bit too laggy lately and had to reset and try to restore latest backup. I mistakenly restored my other phone backup. At first I didnt notice anything bec the phone boots up. It lost its signal, baseband, and I lost the IMEI, I have not done anything yet because of fear of further messing things, So I hope I get a solution. Thanks

Stuck without IMEI

Hi, I have an S8 G950F, I was using stock ROM but last week I install TWRP and flash Lineage 17.1, but I lost my network, so I tried flashing Evolution X with same issue; I can see my carriers name (Tuenti) but no signal, so I said "ok, this is not working" and flash with Odin the latest firmware available on Sammobile: G950FXXS9DTEA_G950FUWB9DTE2_PSN, but I still don't have signal and now I don't have IMEI and when I click on "SIM card manager" or "mobile networks" I get a black screen and I have to reset the phone, what can I do?

p.d.: I don't know it shows like there are 2 IMEI, because this model is single SIM

I attached 2 photos: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dDUQ4AkaHN5rp0k2pz48Z9Nl-zsOPJOQ/view?usp=sharing and https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TFxtfkV00sXiCn8lCIJtItOjGEc4qGME/view?usp=sharing

Hi i have a305g, when i installed TWRP this damaged the imei and it has no signal, how can i repair my imei please help😪
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Is this still active? I messed up my IMEI (SM-G950FD, all zeros) and I really want to restore it again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ace2nutzer:
If you don't have any backup at all from your /EFS partition, then I suggest to flash the latest stock ROM with ODIN. This can bring back your IMEI, at least in some cases this works like a charm. (This already worked for me in the past)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
You were the last person I expected here. Anyways, I'll give it a try.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
@ace2nutzer tried it. IMEI still zeros. Do I need to put my sim card in? Wait a few hours? Or both?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ace2nutzer:
I would try this: Insert the SIM-Card and then boot to Android .. wait 15 minutes .. then reboot to the stock recovery and without to wait, boot again to Android. In some older Sansung devices this fixes the IMEI, because it runs some scripts from recovery to sanitize it. But no idea if it'll still work on newer devices. Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Minor (or major) problem, the stock system won't boot for some reason, it only booted when I flashed OrangeFox and disabled dm-verity and force encryption.

I'll try the steps and hope for the best tomorrow, but for now, I'll be standing before the light at the end of the tunnel for my IMEI.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
@ace2nutzer I got my sim card back and put it into the phone.

IMEI still gone, but I can use emergency calls whereas before even that wasn't an option.

I'll try waiting it out for a day or two or try the stock recovery again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Got my stock recovery back. I wiped my data using it, powered the device off, put my sim card in and then booted to Android. Time to see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
> In some older Samsung devices this fixes the IMEI

@ace2nutzer does this include the S8?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ace2nutzer:
It worked on Galaxy Ace 2.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Did you manage to test it on other devices before? Or just the Ace 2? I went back to EvoX and might go for a round two on restoring it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ace2nutzer:
Only on Ace 2. For my S8 I've a backup of the /efs partition. Try to find some hacks how to restore it. Btw did you format the /efs partition or how did you manage to break it?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Basically, before I messed up my IMEI, I was flashing the stock system and boot images to my phone an excessive amount of times.

At first, I only thought odin messed up /data, but after I reset, I eventually realized my sim card signal was gone.

I eventually checked on the IMEI, only to be met with zeros.

/efs/recovery/history still has the logs of when my data got corrupted, which was August 8.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
As for the reason behind the flashing? I have none. Intrusive thoughts took over and now I pay the price.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Gonna do a stock reflash again, but with XTC firmware to match my device's instead.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
@ace2nutzer so according to the stock recovery, dm-verity verification keeps failing, which may be the reason I can't even boot stock Android. I have to flash a custom recovery, boot into Android, then restore the stock recovery to get a mostly stock system again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] andr_SMOLKEYS:
Status: Device bricked with stock XTC firmware and KG State is also prenormal.

EDIT: Still the same. Cannot boot anywhere except recovery.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] NickPDX:
So I got my shadow and knew I would have to configure a proxy in order to allow the phone to access the internet without the total internet plan. I have been using the t-zones in this fashion for a long time (teathered laptop, PPC etc). I searched for the proper settings for the proxy on the shadow and got it all entered in. Pretty much everything seems to be working now except the Live messenger and the other live services. I've got opera, and all the other messenger programs working so I don't understand why Live won't. Is there another setting that I am missing or is is just blocked by the Proxy? I'd appreciate any help I could get with this. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Do you have a IMEI issue or are you getting a DRK error?

This is either when your IMEI and/or Baseband shows Unknown (or a bunch of zeros) or you may be getting a DRK error when trying to boot your phone (sometimes even both).

This is caused by a missing or damaged EFS partition and can be repaired.

I am here to help. Some of you may have seen my guide over in the S7 forum which helps to fix this issue. Well, I plan on creating a similar guide for the S8.

In the meantime, if you are having any issues as mentioned above, please complete THIS FORM. Once I have received your form I will get back to you with information advising what can and cannot be done. I will then send instructions on how to fix your issue. This will also help towards creating my guide as it will give me some insight into the S8 EFS partition. As I do not have an S8 myself.

I've not seen 'multi windows' yet. At least not on a tablet from Amazon. The only thing I can think of that might be close, but likely way off, is dual screen.

Hey guys, a new version of Phoenix OS (v2.0.7) is out and I have created rooted images for you guys to use.

Instructions:

Download the correct system rooted.7z file provided in the Download section and extract it

Install Phoenix OS and restart your computer.

Boot into Phoenix OS and finish the system initialization wizard. Restart the computer and boot into your main OS.

Go to C:\Phoenix OS (or wherever your Phoenix OS installation is) and replace the system.img file that's already there with the one you just downloaded

Reboot your computer now and boot into Phoenix OS.

Install the latest version of SuperSU. Sign in to Play Store using your Google account and update SuperSU that way. If you for some reason cannot use the Play Store, you can find SuperSU on the official thread. Download the flashable zip, extract Superuser.apk from the common folder, and install it in Phoenix OS by opening the .apk file with the default file manager that comes with the OS.

Update the binary by choosing Normal and your Phoenix OS should now be fully rooted

I tried opening G+ on the v2.0.6 and got the same error as you. Perhaps you can use the browser to browse G+ for now until a solution is available? Also, look into spoofing your deice model into a model of an actual tablet. Maybe that will work if you edit the build.prop file.

If anyone get's "grub minimal bash like line editing issue" when trying to boot

Hi I just tried phoenix OS. yesterday on my unbranded baytrail tablet (ub15ms10) I was stuck with this issue for a while and I finally came up with the fix using the grub prompt! (I used "rufus" to create the boot usb drive)

First, list your drives with ls ls Mine came up with hd0 and some others, but since I was booting from a usb drive, that's all that matters at the moment. hd0 will be the drive that you need so set it as the target and below is basically what you need to type to try it out without installing.

set root=(hd0,1)

linux /kernel root=/dev/ram0

initrd /initrd.img

boot

You should then be able to boot Pheonix OS 2.0.7 32bit. I did not try the 64bit version since there's no point because tablet has less then 4GB of RAM. What works: It makes good use of the tablet's GPU, it didn't lag in anyway for games such as clash royal. Browsing is good, playstore works..The performance is nice, It runs well on a 2GB ram tablet with a 1.3Ghz Intel Atom Z3735F. GPS works, bluetooth works.

What doesn't work: No audio, no brightness control. I didn't bother testing anything else since I lost interest as soon as audio didn't work. I'd probably be able to fix it myself by messing around with the kernel parameters but it's a PITA.
[Phoenix OS News, Q&A & Development] The Wrath of Kahn:
I tried editing the build.prop before with no luck, but I'm not experienced in doing it so I may have missed the fields that I needed.
[Phoenix OS News, Q&A & Development] irex102:
For the audio and other issues for baytrail/cherrytrail devices, someone made a kernel that apparently fixes these issues in debian/ubuntu which can be found here: https://yadi.sk/d/pW1Fbl-VyVPoR/Linux 4.12/Linux 4.12rc5. If someone else could use these kernels sources to apply a patch for android x86 that would be awesome.

So I followed the instructions (although the step 6 is kind of confusing, English is not my native language so...) booted with the rooted sys image, installed superSU from the Play Store and when I open it it says "SU binary busy" and send me to a FAQ where it says that

"The SU files are already occupied by other software, such as Kingroot."

So I need to install the binary somehow? or something went wrong?

Oh BTW, used Root checker and it says it's not propely installed
