How to find your real imei codes :
Remove the battery , under that , on the phone's sticker , you will see both imei codes. Write them on a piece of paper.
Then apply them using this method:
There is fast way without restoring nvram.
1. Enter in engineer menu - code *#*#3646633#*#*
2. Choose: "Connectivity"/"CDS Information"/"Radio Information"/"Phone1" (or "Phone2" for sim1 or sim2).
3 for sim1. In the field "AT+" write after all "EGMR=1,7,"your IMEI1"".
Result: "AT+EGMR=1,7,"your_imei1"". Press "SEND AT COMMAND".
3 for sim2. In the field "AT+" write after all "EGMR=1,10,"your_imei2"".
Result: "AT+EGMR=1,10,"your_imei2"". Press "SEND AT COMMAND".
5. Exit from engineer menu and restart phone.
6. Check IMEI - code *#06#.
But if you broke nvram, everytime after reflashing you loose your IMEI and you need to do this operation again.

That happen to me when i upgrade 1.0.3 to lewa, my home button is bugged, i lost imei at every flash, and my gps wont work (can find satellites but dont connect to anyone)
Its very sad, is any way to fix all this problems?

I've your same problem. I don't understand why BUGS remaining after flash, from lewa to others ROM. I can fix only IMEI in every flash that i take. Have you upgrade to 1.0.5? For me it's impossible this.

that you loose your imei after every flash is because your nvram is gone.
if you flash the nvram from someones working phone and then set your imei everything is back to normal.

the problem with the home button is stated in the very first post of the LeWa Rom, as a warning.
some people have reported they were able to fix it by flashing back to 1.0.1 and then to 1.0.5 but some also said it didnt work.

Can you explain how flash nvram?? There are other bugs as gps and home button. I want to flash 1.0.5 but it's impossible, flashtool give me an error.
