youngdude1: only micro sim enters it. I'v removed the sim and try on another phone and it works perfectly.follow suggestions or instructions correctly. this is how u fail simple exams. nobody said try the sim on another phone, but it's also good u did that. i said try another sim on the same phone cos your network may have reset your phone's radio and locked your sim out from registering from that particular phone...that happens for security reasons |

youngdude1: thank u soo much for ur suggestion. I will get my etisalat sim cut tomoro and do as u suggested.good. it's not necessarily your own alternative sim u must use to test it. u could use another person's micro sim[IT MUST BE THE SAME NETWORK AS THE ONE THAT'S NOT SHOWING SIGNAL(mtn-ng)] and once u have confirmed that another mtn sim is normal in your phone, then u will reset the radio...I'll give you code or u may get it by yourself if you want |

Re: Invalid Imei On My Galaxy S4 Mini by theassassin: 7:31am On Sep 23, 2014 |
youngdude1: sorry if my question is weird but how do-jj i check it? * check your phone memory for any efs folder check if there is backup in it. if no efs backup use ARIZA patch to restore it. google the latest version or simply use chimeratool to repair it. (you can even change it to bb imei with this) I think s4 mini is supported. but chimeratool is premium but contact me so I can give you the number of the person that will share her premium account with you just for 1k per phone. 1 Like |

It's really a simple case dear. You have corrupted your efs folder and I guess you didn't do a back up. Now for solution Search for your device's full rom online and flash through Odin. It will install your modem back. |
