This The First Time I Flash My Device
Accidentally
I Checked On [ Phone Efs Clear ] in [ Odin Multidownloader ]
After The Device Finish Flashing
I Found That My Imei Changed To 000000000000000
And I Didnt Found The Efs Folder
Even After Flashing My Device To Another Rom
There Is No Efs Folder
Someone Told Me That i Have To Get Efs Backup From Working Device
I Hope Someone Help Me Here .... =(
maybe you should look directly thread Recover IMEI http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17587351&postcount=1
I Dont Have An EFS Folder To Change Nv_data
I Guess I Need An EFS Backup From a Working Phone
Or Full Rom With EFS Package
I Hope Someone Upload EFS Package For Me ...
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

Somebody Help Meeeee
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.
Guys i made this thread for the people who already encounter this kind of problem and for those who will encounter in the future..
PLS DONT POST YOUR IMEI HERE!!!
We only need those who encounter this error...
1st pks dial *#06# in your phone then your imei number will be popup...
Now this is the problem many of android users has this the same imei.

Can someone here who encounter this too?
Im just lucky to have a backup of my /efs through adb..BUT i dont know how to restore it.. ~_~ i do a manual replacement of my efs folder but it not a success.. Ive done extracting the backup and copy the nv_data.bin to my /efs folder but not im not lucky with this guide..
I have a nv_data.bin.tar.gz back up..
How can i restore this?
Thank you very much!

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...
this might be alot to say or ask for, but can someone share a /efs backup with the files, as an attachment. I LOST MINE AND HAVE NO BACKUP! My /efs is empty...
Galaxy Note 10.1
GT-N8013
I dont think anyone would do that.
sorry man
No one is going to give you their efs data.... This contains the IMEI for their own device. In fact in most countries it's illegal to change/clone IMEI's as this can then be used for crime...
Thread closed.
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
