Hi guys!
I accidentaly deleted the whole efs folder, and now my imei is 0000... .
So is it possible to fix it without having any backup of efs?? I tried to use qpst too, but qpst is not recognizing my phone so I was unable to fix it. Is it even possible to use qpst on s2plus??
QPST, would not works..its for qualcomm, as our devices has broadcom..try flashing it to stock

I Need Help ... The Phone Network Not Working At All
i have the same issue.
the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17587351&postcount=1 only works if you have a backup of the EFS files or if you have the EFS folder.
i dont have any of that. what happends if is use the EFS folder and files from another Galaxy (same model)
I Guess If You Flash Your Phone With Another Phone Efs Backup
You Will Get The Same Imei Of The Phone
But The Phone Maybe Work Good

It will work, but, both phones will have the same IMEI #. That's the reason why no one will share their efs folder (files).

The best way for you guys is to send your phones to the service centers, so they can restore your own original imei numbers.
IF There is a Samsung Service Center In My City

Fix all 0s imei
My device ( Note 3 N900 ) was showing all 0s Imei after i replaced motherboard. So to fix it I rooted my device, go to root, delete the efs folder and reboot. After the reboot you will see a msg restoring settings.... thats how I got the imei back. Please try it at your own risk.
My imei no got lost while restoring backup using cwm..... i looked around the forum and the ".nv_data" method will not do because my efs folder has a file named "essiv" only and nothing else.....
if someone would confirm what files are contained in thier efs folder and mail it to me also i'll be grateful......
I don't think the 'efs folder' of one device can be used with other devices as it contains the device's IMEI number.
Could you elaborate a bit as to what did you do that resulted in the loss of your IMEI number ? It would help others avoid it in future.
Well.... i restored the same backup file couple of times 'coz i was trying to flash a new theme...btw i am on stock indian 2.3.5......
the files in efs folder can be edited using hex editor (read somewhere in the s2 forum...i don't remeber which thread) so the imei no. in that file can be modified...
I've tried to restore the EFS of my girlfriend's phone. Time ago, i've made a backup of efs folder by tar command. I've a file called efs-backup.tar.gz. The problem is that when i flash blank file EFS with odin to restore EFS partition and i copy all file in my efs folder with tar command (removing md5 file) the smartphone shows me that it hasn't an IMEI or a baseband. The phone shows only the row IMEI with no number and no null string. I've found this thread http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f634/riff-jtag-how-repair-samsung-baseband-imei-2-a-1661209/ when users says that I need a JTAG RIFF box to restore with the files in the thread. Anyone knows an other solution? I've tried also with my i9003 efs with no success.
thank you in advance for help.
Try convert you tar.gz backup to odin flashable tar, than flash with odin3 ver 1.85 in pda

Hey guys,
Does anybody have a qcn back-up file for the MI 4 LTE-CU?
I need it very bad. I flashed wrong modem firmware and now my nvram (12, 13, 16th partition) is corrupted . I have no IMEI, baseband and cellular info.
Hope someone can help me.

Try Qualcomm IMEI Writer or QPST tools.
I tried them both but I need a qcn file complete. I do not know how to write a complete qcn file myself.
If I can get a similar qcn file from the same device I can change the IMEI into my own using QPST and a heximal IMEI converter.

Is it the LTE FDD version of MI4? I tried to flash it using QPST but no success so far.
It can not reset NVram it says. Complaining about incompatible model number.
Thanks for your help! I going to examine the file later this week and then give it another try. Probably coming weekend.
Greetings
It works!! Finally I got it. I used XVI32 writer to change the IMEI in the above qcn file. With Qfil I was able to restore the adopted qcn file.
Many thanks for sharing, Yingice!!
Solved!
