This guide below explains how to fix Unknown Baseband, NULL or Invalid IMEI on Qualcomm devices. Invalid IMEI or unknown Baseband could make your Qualcomm phone unable to receive network signals, make calls or dial USSD codes, access the internet, etc.

What causes Unknown Baseband / IMEI and issues detecting SIM Cards or Network signal on a Qualcomm phone?


The primary cause is the wiping / corruption of the EFS partition(s). This could occur when you:
  1. Format the phone using Chinese box e.g Miracle Box, Volcano Box, Infinity Chinese Miracle II box etc
  2. Flash a custom ROM or not fully incompatible stock rom / firmware
  3. Tamper with your IMEI using an incompatible IMEI changer
  4. Format your partitions (without restoring) via a custom recovery e.g TWRP
