Repair IMEI on Sony Xperia
Repair IMEI on Sony Xperia
(23-05-2022, 08:11 PM)4qx Thank you @MaxPayne. I really appreciate your taking the time to help, no one else I tried asking on different sites helped (and in some cases they were just deleting the post). The setprop commands you provided enabled diag mode, though the phone kept reconnecting after each executed command for some reason. I also tried installing Magisk module twice but I'm not sure if it worked because it doesn't show in Modules tab. Anyway, QFIL, QPST and EFS' NV Tools can all connect to my phone through its COM port now and I attempted IMEI restorations, but none of my attempts worked. Here's what I tried:
Backing up the .qcn in different ways via QFIL, QPST and NV Tools; editing the IMEI using NV Tools and Qualcomm IMEI Rebuilder, then checking that the file actually got edited and contained proper IMEI; restoring the qcn with QPST and QFIL (backup and restore with and without Muti-Sim option). In spite of attempting all these variations, the phone keeps persistently showing the broken IMEI via Settings and *#06# dial code after rebooting. Curiously enough, in case of trying to write the correct IMEI with NV Tools, there's an error reading "NV_ERR_READ_ONLY_NV_ITEM", as opposed to QFIL and QPST which simply show success messages.
Once again... any advice?

(26-05-2022, 09:14 AM)maxpayne Have you flashed the latest firmware for your region / build / variant?Yes, 47.2.B.5.38 (Android 9) for SO-02K from ftf.andro.plus

(03-06-2022, 02:21 PM)maxpayne Under your Settings screen, what do you have under Software version and Custom version? I think you need to flash the right cust.There's nothing labeled Software version or Custom version unfortunately. App info on Settings says version 9, don't think that's what you're after though
(03-06-2022, 02:21 PM)maxpayne I don't think this will do much good as we have nothing to compare with.I'm open to trying though
