In normal case all this missing comes from factory, if you need help from others you must explain how this happened, what rom you are using etc etc

similar problem

I have a sm-n900 exynos and I have lost my imei and baseband during a Samsung flash. I have a TWRP backup, efs.img backup by dr.ketan's backup tool but nothing is able to restore my efs. I have scanned emmc blocks for bricked blocks and all blocks come back as non-corrupted. may be the partition is corrupted .how do I erase my efs partition to rebuild it. I have tired to flash PIT from ODIN but that too doesn't work.


tried this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2567133&page=36

but need a guide to identify the partitions and how to rebuild them. by any chance anyone know if I could extract twrp backup to files to restore efs or from efs.img so I can use the nv_data.bin, since tried restoring the backups and it didn't restore I feel the partition might be corrupt and hence not being re-written. so might be I have to rebuild the partitions by formatting as explained in this thread. but I don't know exactly the steps for exynos variant. I tried using terminal on twrp but mkef2 command shows mmbcblkp03 doesn't exist which as I have read in posts is the efs partition on this phone and reboots to twrp recovery. and mmbcblkp12 show filesystem too small and reboots to twrp recovery:confused:

Fixed it!!!

If you have a n900 and your imei is null and your baseband is unknown all you have to do is to flash the file beneath with cwm recovery and voila!

You can still flash it if you have 4.4.2. The file i uploaded to be flashed is just to flash the baseband not the rom itself.
Btw did you flash the file with cwm recovery?

Thanks man for the reply :)
anyway !! yes of course we flashed the file with CWM recovery tha recovery that we used is ( n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7-kk(0125) )
we flashed it 2 times but nothing !! after flashing the baseband stays unkown and IMEI (null/null)
just one thing that the system is 4.4.2 rooted is that a problem ? should we flash the official stock 4.4.2 and then flash the file ?!!
we'v tried to wipe factory data/cash partion/ delvic cash then flashed the file still nothing !!
please help my friend is going crazy !!!

Ohw ok.... When i flashed the file my sim card got the read the first time i restarted my phone. I don't get why it doesn't work for your friend. What you can try to do is to download (google) other basebands for n900 and try to see if those work (it doesn't necessarily have to be 4.4.2 cuz i flashed the same 4.3 file on my 4.4.2 phone and it worked). If that doesn't work you can try to flash a stock rom and then flash a baseband ( while still in recovery mode), try the one i uploaded. just be sure to have a backup of the current rom if the stock one doesn't seem to be solution.

Maybe start with these :
