Hello!
I have a Samsung A70, where I managed to ruin the SIM1 IMEI somehow, and I want to restore it to the original state.
About the phone:
Stock ROM
-Magisk installed, rooted
-TWRP up and running
-ADB connection works, OEM unlocked
I installed all the required drivers, both adb, fastboot and Qualcomm
I am able to put the phone into Qualcomm mode with adb setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb; when I do this it shows up both in QPST and QFIL as a device.
But here the problems starts:
with QPST I was unable to download the .qcn of the phone, as when I start the download process it dropped me an error (even before the IMEI error) and completely killed my QUALCOMM port connection.
with QFIL I was able to download the phones .qcn file ( I have the valid .qcn of my phone), and I have it. buth when I try to flash it back to the phone, just nothing happens, the IMEI1 stays nulled out.

Others things I tried:
-try to put the phone into EDP mode, but Qualcomm port never recognized it
-#9900# - upload mode enable - When I booted into that weird menu, my computer never recognized it as a Qualcomm device.

The phone is not bricked, I have access to everything! Any help is highly appreciated!

TLDR: I have a valid .qcn backup of my phone I can't seem to put back to the phone, which is NOT bricked!
