Write IMEI failed

You have to do this:

1. Write back the security backup to the phone to restore original IMEI.

2. You have to downgrade the modem(baseband) of the phone to MLG that's from 4.2.2 at this point you will lose sound, don't worry about this now we fix it later.

3. Root if is not rooted, you can use Kingo Root for that.

4. Now run the IMEI Repair and it will go thru without a problem.

5. After repair is finished download the 4.4.2 stock ROM and flash it thru Odin to fix the sound.

6. That's it all done IMEI fixed and everything working.

The software does it automatically check in C:/Program files/Octoplus/Octoplus_Samsung/Backup and there check for your security back, look for the one with your IMEI Number the one on the back or the one you first started to do the repair and the copy it to your desktop to find it easily then go to the software and hit Read Phone then Write Security to the phone.
