IMEI 0 and edge only

[Guest Mylainos]

Hi!

I have 2 problems and I need your help and advices.

I've a french ZTE Open C with the cm13 of KonstaT.

My IMEI is 0. Is it possible to restore it? Or mask it? I don't have a backup of my stock rom and I know it's illegal to change it but it's already changed.

I can only connect to Edge and I have the good APN. Is it related? How can I fix this?

Should I try to flash my stock ROM? Is it a baseband problem?

Have a good day

I'ts possible. Send me private message. I'm from russia, our developer create program for restoring if u don't create backup nvram.

If your IMEI really was 0, you wouldn't be connecting to _any_ network...

First question as always, what did you do that caused this? Only way you can mess that up is by using the wrong Windows flasher.

Most likely similar case as here.

So the IMEI shown by the settings app and by calling *#06# is wrong?

I've used the ZTE upgrade tool for the EU (ebay) version but I have the french one.

EDIT:

Maybe I've used the US version, I don't remember. But I think there is a difference between the french and the EU version, see http://builds.firefoxos.mozfr.org/doc/en/devices/zte-open-c

There's a Windows flasher for French Open C as well. Try that before doing anything else. http://www.ztefrance.com/downloads/Pack_root_du_ZTE_Open_C.zip

I've also mirrored all of them. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B9Xj0WNW4yX4b2tOXzFjN1RDRmc?tid=0B9Xj0WNW4yX4b2tOXzFjN1RDRmc

So I flash the EU: (Android -> Firefox OS) stock rom and then I try the Windows flasher? Or I flash a french stock rom before the Windows flasher?

I don't think it matters. Windows flasher wipes the whole device clean. I think you need to be using stock ROM to get the flasher to recognize the device, though.

I can't flash a stock rom, every time I tried it say

E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted

I've flash the recovery in the update
