Missing serial number

[mr3p]

Saw an LG G7 with the serial number blank/unpopulated. What does that mean and can it be restored? IMEI and everything else looks normal.

All of that is nvram data, it is all stored in the efs partition.

Serial number is not really important as its there for verifying when needed. IMEI is needed to connect to a network.

You can always use a app like cdma workshop to fill the serial number back in if its still on the case.

Thanks for the tip. Any other option for reflashing serial number? Can't seem to find a current version of CDMA Workshop and not sure if that would work with G7.

In order not to create a new topic, I will write here. I have the same problem, the erased serial number.
Is there a real working way that will restore the serial number? Thank.
