downgrade to 4.1.1 (Full Package and flash the param.bin in CP button)
You should have 004 imei after boot.

Octopus box · 02-07-2015, 14:44

Most likely, this is HW issue.

Try also to read out EFS backup from the same working device and write it into your phone. Unfortunately, currently we have no EFS backups for this device.

Try to re-flash the phone.

If the problem is the same, most likely, this is HW problem (problem with phone's flash chip).
