Hi sir,
Invalid imei is different from imie null..
Imie null can generally be mended via simple writing operation...
Invalid imie implies that there’s a problem with the Nv partition, therefore;
You either repair the baseband “if it’s unknown” then proceed with imie writing.
Or write a fresh Nvram partition from a fully functioning similar device, subsequently, repair the imei.
All tools are showing successful results, but the imei ain’t showing up could also be due to a damage flash IC, read-only state..etc
Good luck

Thanks bro now im clear that it can be a flash IC fault means its possible that it can be a hardware issue

Hi again,
Did you check the state of the baseband? There's a huge potential that it's causing the problem....
