Nexus 5 (hammerhead) IMEI set to 0



Greetings

its a long story but i'll try to keep it short, my mom's phone is the nexus 5, she moved to turkey, where phones bought from outside of turkey will stop working after two weeks or so (no gsm service) so she took the phone to a "repair" shop where they unlocked the phone, rooted it with some chinese custom rom, anyway the phone performance deteriorate significantly, so she gave it to me hoping i can fix it, so i installed nexus root toolkit and flashed stock android and unrooted and relocked the boot loader and set the tamper flag to zero, all is good by in the process im sure i messed up somehow and the IMEI now is set to zero, i cant receive signal on the phone (the signal statues keep switching between no service, searching, and no sim) even though it can recognize the network, i took the phone with me back to finland, and i asked LG if they can fix it, they told me they can try to reflash stock rom on it again, but no guarantee if its gonna be fixed or not, i thought in that case i might as well wait for marshmallow and see if it will fix it, i waited for the update for few days and today i decided to update it manually, i flashed the android 6.0 (Build Number : MRA58K) and still the IMEI is set to NULL, is there anyway i can get it fixed, i really appreciate your help and thank you for your time
