I was uncapable of reading the post, since it was so badly structured :>

My recommendation though is to go into the UV texture editor and make certain that the model does not contain multiple UV maps. That is one of the common issues when importing models.

Spoiler below!

Then in that menu go to "UV Sets". If it is more than one you have a case of multiple UVs.

Edit: Fixing that means copying UV shells and merging the two images so that you have one UV set at the end.
