There really is no way to fix this. The 8530 has the memory locked down and it cannot be read. That is why people have to buy SPC codes from a few members.

Basically, if you can't read the memory you can't repair the ESN or even see where it is stored.

Unfortunately you have a phone that is mainly good for parts.

AFAIK, if esn is 000000 its no solution at all.
