This might be a strange request, but can someone share their EFS backup with me? I somehow lost it when trying to make a Lollipop rom a secondary rom in multirom. Unfortunately it was not backed up. I have tried every method I've came across on the internet to fix it with no success. Any help or the file would be much appreciated!
People can't share their EFS, it contains sensitive information that is specific to their device that should never, under any circumstances be shared, namely their unique IMEI.

Hi guys!
I've come to a spot in the OP5 rooting guide which states For Users who want to Decrypt Data have to Format Data & Flash No Verity OP5 Zip. However I'm a bit at loss to why to do this or don't, what benefits does it bring and what is the relation between data encryption/decryption and DM-Verity. I googled a lot, but found no definitive answer
Any insight is welcomed (and please don't answer with questions like "Why do you want to root the phone", thanks )
Hey everyone!
I have a Teclast M30 (MTK6797) tablet.
I updated it to the latest firmware with the flashing tool, and lost my IMEI and SIM card capabilities.
No baseband, IMEIs are null.
Things I tried:
- Restore NVRAM, NVCFG and NVDATA with the flashing tool, after editing the scatter file to make them downloadable.
- Used TONS of tools, like various versions of MauiMETA, ModemMETA, SN Write Tool, R&W tool, and others.
- Use MDDB & APDB files from other/older FW versions.
- Relocking the bootloader, just for kicks.
- Generating MP0B_001 file and placing it into the directory mentioned in a post here.
- Obviously, different SIM cards, to eliminate the possibility.
- Using the technician code in the dialer. The relevant option is not listed in the Communications tab.
Any suggestion is welcomed. I really have no idea what to do at this point, especially considering that the tablet is being used constantly due to the quarantine, and ordered a SIM card to allow family members to communicate via video where there's no WiFi.
Thank you and best health!

Flash the stock firmware that you previously had on the device before you updated. It might restore your IMEI.
Other than that, as stated in the XDA forum rules, we can't help you retore your IMEI unless you made an IMEI backup before the issue started. You obviously didn't create an IMEI backup so we can't help you with restoring it.

Hey, thanks for replying.
The action I took was the update of the official firmware.
No, unfortunately I haven't backed up my IMEI partitions, not that even at this point - I know which partitions are these.
As I said, I have the number printed out on the box the device shipped in, therefore essentially I'm looking for help in restoring this partition.
I made several restores to the official firmware, new and old, but IMEI isn't being restored. Hoping there's an actual solution to this - we need this SIM for WhatsApp communication, keeping in touch with family at very restrictive times.

I understand your situation perfectly....
But...
That doesn't change anything about my reply.
As stated, the XDA rules only allow us to help with restoring from an IMEI backup. The reason for this is because anything that involves using a flashtool or other methods to rewrite your IMEI can be used, by others that might see it, for nefarious purposes, such as using the instructions that we might give as a means to change the IMEI on a stolen device or a blacklisted device in order to activate the device, which is illegal in a lot of places. Therefore, those kinds of discussions are not allowed here, regardless of your reason or your needs. This rule is in place to protect a potential user's privacy and device security.
Sorry, can't help you at all. Keep searching on your own in other places other than XDA.

I understand, obviously it's not the case here, but I wouldn't want to break any rules.
I haven't found a solution in days, before arriving here to ask. So, if someone sees it and has an idea, I would appreciate help, even with PMs.
The main purpose of utilizing a SIM card at all is whatsapp, it's not like we're going out in the near future.
Contacted Teclast's support, which explained that the IMEI partition was wiped, and the tablet has to be shipped back for a reflashing.
This is impossible as we're in quarantine, and we use the tablet daily. So... if there aren't any suggestions - guess we'll stay on WiFi, w/o WhatsApp.

It's in the GPRS settings.
Use the third (oldest) is best into
But as you said, it's on the box, so it's no biggie.
Set, reboot.
Hello Everyone, I need a help if someone can assist please do...
Accidentally i deleted data from my #Realme XT, which had some important videos and photos shoot for a documentary.
i tried to recover through some ways, through some apps, they just recover thumbnails. i can't do it through apps because it will overwrite memory so will be difficult to recover in future.
i used Fonepaw on windows system which also recovered the thumbnails, and asked me for a deep scan which needs my mobile to be rooted.
but the rooting process i found for Realme XT, ask to unlock the Bootloader before rooting the device, and as i am getting it that will wipe the phone data ( i guess memory too ). i don't know....
either someone knows to root the mobile safely without wiping the memory or someone has a better suggestion to recover the data without rooting. please help.
All the suggestions, guidelines and helps are mostly welcome to recover my important data.
Thanks ...
IMO you should ask MODS to move your thread to Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshhooting forum
Thank you
I have asked the paid root experts at Fiverr, and none have the knowhow. What I need help with is someone to walk me through this process. Is that something you could do?
It's a workaround for Apps2SD, so Marshmallow loads the EXT2 on boot.
