Last night i saw i can't connect on a carrier.
I saw on phone settings status that imei = 0
I changed a pair or ROMS (AOSB and then GPE) and i did before installing "fastboost erase all", that could be the problem?
Is there a way to have IMEI restored from 0 to what it's written on my battery?

UPDATE:


There is no EFS directory or .nv_data file, what now?

Tried on TWRP (no Option) and manually looking with root explorer

If you have completely removed that partition then imei is lost. You must try something to restore that efs directory. If possible in this particular case.

Grazie Denzel.
I think there's no EFS directory on Motorola Moto G anyways, only samsung or sony no?

tried mount on adb shell, no EFS partition also, but i think it's normal?

Passed whole day trying to find solution.

Flashed JB Stock
Forced OTA Update to KK
Flashed pair of Roms
Erased modemst1 modemst2

No way to change that IMEI 0 and no signal on my Moto G German XT1032

If i boot without SIM it doesn't show im without SIM and if i go to phone operators it still lists the ones avaialable, don't know if it's weird or normal, just in case

I read earlier this problem can occur due to a missing or not properly flashed radio firmware. You say you have already flashed stock, did you include the following commands?
flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
erase modemst1
erase modemst2
flash fsg fsg.mbn​

Yup that's what I did when I flash stock one. Maybe I should invert erasing modem before flashing hlos.bin ?

That didn't do the trick. Same baseband and same no signal. Maybe I'm trying from a wrong starting stock? I've used blur 4.4.2 falcon retail Germany.
