Try to find NVM file from backup folder
look at the time
find the first one ( the earilest one)
that is the original NVM backup
write the NVM file to the phone to see what happen

try to read (backup) the NVM file by yourself before unlock the phone
it is very important to unlock thoes phones have new securuty.
when things go wrong, you have the chance to witre the NVM file back to the phone.
