Hello,

Some body changed IMEI on your phone. 

If you have phone box you can check IMEI on phone box.

You can't receive OTA with bad IMEI.

You can try update manual using H87330b_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0917.kdz   and this manual https://lg-firmwares.com/how-to-flash/

Is this firmware global and correct for my device? As I live in Pakistan so will it work properly and not cause carrier problems?
