Hello everyone, I've got a big problem... I have been using my SGSIII with CM10 and siyah kernel, and everything was fine. however, 2 days ago my phone froze and i had to pull the battery. after restarting i wasnt able to get a connection... i tried reflashing, rebooting, resetting and everything, but nothing worked. after looking around I saw that my device says Baseband: unknown and IMEI nothing... so i checked my efs folder with root explorer - and see it is empty. fortunately i've got a EFS backup! So i tried to recover it with HC-kTool - it says success however the efs folder ist still empty and stil cant connect. when I try to move the backed up files into the efs folder manually, it tells me that no space is free..?
I also checked "mount" in the terminal, and saw that the /efs partition is NOT mounted... so I remounted it manually with
Code:
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs
after doing this i can restore my backup and there are loads of files in the /efs folder! however, after a reboot everything is gone and /efs is not mounted anymore
does anyone know what i need to do? the phone is running stock ALE8 rooted.
Cheers
Efs is located in block 3, not 1

so which would that be?

yeah i think so... switched back to stock!
So does anyone have an Idea what I should do now?
This information might be of use to you, but the restore without an *.img file (assuming you don't have one) probably won't be.
The last one (0p3)
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
actually I have an .img file... called
Code:
efsdev-mmcblk0p1.img
which is around 4MB... thats an efs-backup made by SiyahKernel about a month ago.
I'll try it with this one!
That sounds like a plan
Don't do it ! Efs partition size is 20mb and is called 0p3.
If you do it, you'll screw up your efs partition (assuming it's still there).
Just try to mount 0p3 to /efs.
If it doesn't work and you don't have a 20Mb backup of 0p3, I'm afraid there's nothing more you can do to restore efs.

It should be 20Mb but some of the backups I have taken in the past show 0p1 and some show 0p3.

I'm not in need of one, my EFS is ok.
I was pointing out to Fekle in my earlier post that the EFS partition is 0p3.
ok, Thanks everyone, I just did it before it worked well, the efs folder is now "normal" again, my baseband is recognised and I can see my IMEI again, however it differs from the one written onto the device under the battery -___- my "real" imei is 3531..... but the device says 004999010640000 now in the settings
I think this is something like a stock fallback imei or sth like that.. any Idea how I can change that to my real imei?? that has to be possible somehow.. !
greets
This imei is generated when NV data is corrupted (meaning efs did NOT restore correctly). Do you want me to have a look at your 0p3 backup ?

I don't think sharing EFS data is a good idea. In most countries changing IMEI info is illegal - - access to someone elses EFS backup would probably allow you to do that.
Upto the OP though if he/she still wants to share it.

yes, that would be awesome... I just found a newer backup which is called ...0p3.. and is about 20 mb in size.. however restoring it doesnt work :/

Sharing publicly efs is indeed a bad idea, but not being able to use your phone anymore due to a corrupted efs is worse IMO. Anyway, I've build an app to sim unlock gs3, many users trusted me before and sent me their corrupted efs folder for me to have a look (which doesn't mean he has to ), so if I ever wanted to use another imei, I'd have plenty already

hi, would you be able to tell me the right contents of the /efs/imei folder? what files should be in it? i have a backup efs folder but i'm trying to figure out if it's a usable backup... and also, could you verify for me if /efs and /factory contain identical files? thanks a lot!

So my SGSII International (yes I'm on ATT) has been working fine for the last two weeks. But last night, after flashing from CM7 to Sensation, my phone lost all service. As in no reception nor internet. I have already flash an old backup, flashed back to stock, and delete my efs folder through ODIN, yet the problem persist. Any help on this?
Have you checked your SIM card?
Yes. I placed my SIM card in my old Captivate and I had full service.
First time I read something like this!
Did you wipe your phone before flashing again?
Deleted efs folder? Why?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I just had the same problem. I flashed several roms without success until I reinstalled a CM7 backup. I guess I'm sticking to CM for awhile.
What about your IMEI or efs folder? Are they still how they should be?
Type *#06# to check your IMEI number.

So is everything back to normal or are you still having issues?
Issues still remain. Using my Captivate at the moment.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Ok. So what is your IMEI and baseband? Is your IMEI correct and the the baseband is shown?
You can check this under settings - status or dial *#06#.
What files are in your /efs folder?
What files are in your backed up /efs folder?
What are the dates of these files?
Did you restore efs folder with the correct permissions? A simple drag and drop wont work. Does your imei number display when *#06# is entered
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
My IMEI and Baseband both says unknown. And if I recall correctly, the date is 10/03, the day I got the phone. I don't have my SGSII on me so I don't remember the content.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Ok. So copy the old .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 in your efs folder. Delete everything else in there an change the .bak to nv_data.bin or .bin.md5
then open in your backup folder the file mps_code.dat open it and see whether the code in it is the same as you csc. If not change out to match your csc. Then copy the mps file in your almost empty efs folder and reboot.
I hope that works.

Thanks for the advice. However, Root Explorer doesn't allow me the change the setting to R/W so I can't do it on my phone. Is there anyway to do it using ADB?
I have the same problem, but I haven't changed anything on my phone.
The battery emptied last evening, and I managed to use a power connection on the trainstation to load up my phone, as I had to make some calls.
But suddenly it just says No Service, and I tried to look for my IMEI number with *#06# but I only get a blank box with IMEI:
Dont really know what to do next.
Also, the battery usage have gone crazy. My battery lasts about 4 hour - with no usage at all.
Edit: Nevermind, I just flashed CM7 and it all went back to normal.

You can easily do the copying of the files in an adb shell.
Try to unmount and remount your efs folder.
Have a look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261948&highlight=imei
And if this does not work reflash your original stock rom with correct csc and try the steps again.
Thank you SO much. The link you gave me helped save my phone. Although I did lose all of my files in my internal SD, it was worth it.

Hello all!
I guess the APP Chainfire broken my IMEI, i already changed my rom and nothing happen.
When i did #*06# my IMEI is 0000000000000
reading some tutorials I saw that I need to back up the EFS folder but this folder does not exist!
What can I do to restore my imei?
If someone pass me the backup of the EFS folders I use it?
You're basically screwed and you need to send it for service

Good luck trying to back up ace's imei and at the same time doesnt messed it up and lose it forever.
See the irony? U wanna back it up and in the process u actually ****ed it up.
Why would backing up something ruin it?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Because it wasnt a folder to begin with. Its a hidden partition that intentionally left unmounted on boot. In order to backup it u need to see it, in order too see it u need to mount it. This when disaster strike. Forget to unmount it and it'll be lost forever. And even if u do manage to back it up its still useless because theres still no known method to use it to recover ace's imei. this have been said many, many times before, yet u who is a senior member with over 300 post still clueless. Thats what amaze me the most :/

edit, usually to save this kind of stuff you need to backup your efs folder, meaning that a nandroid backup nor a tibu backup can't help you with this; it needs to be done separately.

If your rooted use a root enabled file explorer (I use Root Explorer) and open it up to /. There should be a folder called “efs". Simply copy that folder and place it on your internal or external sd, then for safe keeping place it on your laptop/computer

I've been nervous about flashing anything else since I've read about 4 cases like this. I'm so freakin happy I found this thread! I've found the efs folder your referring to, but I don't know if I should copy the efs folder to my external storage or open it & just copy the IMEI folder to my external storage? Your help would be so very much appreciated.
Maybe someone should put this in general and try to get it stickied, as it seems like a necessary preventive maintenance?
Edit: I just backed up the whole folder to be safe, and I'm going to make a general post referring to this problem.
Hello. I recently lost 4G data but do have Edge. My IMEI shows 0. I wasn't aware of backing up the /efs folder before flashing any ROMs for the first time on each device. I had Odin'ed back to stock before i found out about IMEI relation to /efs. I have uploaded a couple of screenshots of my /efs and imei folder in which someone might be able to tell me if there is data i may be missing in either folder to recover my IMEI? Thanks in advance.

its a known problem right now with no apparent fix. [see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1753833 ] the lte galaxy s 3's are missing the needed nv_data.bin in the efs folder which is normally used to recover the imei. you're only solution would be to find a shop that can restore your imei or try and get a replacement device.
Where is nv_data.bin located? I still can't find it but my IMEI is not corrupted (I don't think. Got 3G, can make phone calls, send sms/mms etc)
But it's not in my /efs folder
There is no known location. Mine is corrupted as well. I have heard people just flashing cwm sometimes get corruption issues as well. When I get my new device on Monday I'm starting stock until this is solved.

Yea good call. I'm really paranoid now lol. Because I did loose 3G for an hour or so a few days ago but updating my Profile solved that (on Sprint Variant)
But I'm assuming one will know if their /efs folder and/or nv_data.bin is corrupted? An obvious sign being not being able to make calls or having 3G?
Oh, for the OP, here is a screenshot of my entire /efs folder. I'm sure these are not universal across all variants so maybe someone with a TMO can help more
Yeah me and op talked earlier. And the only way to fix it is with to it with what I think is an illegal method using octopus box. But you need to have special hardware to do. Like I said best bet is to stay stock.

Oh wow, I honestly am not familiar with any of the IMEI bricks or /efs corruption. Yea I'm real nervous to even flash anything anymore lol. But I guess this is expected on a new device. As time passes hopefully more info will be available to prevent this. I know when I had my NS4G you could add a few lines to an updater- script to auto backup your /efs folder to your sd card before the zip package extracts. Probably would just need the correct mount points for /efs and anyone making a flashable zip could just add that to their script

Is the same link I said I followed its instructions. It didn't worked.
I had the same problem, the only tool I needed was root explorer to fix.
Begin by selecting one of the compressed files in your EFS_BACKUP on your external SD.
Pick anyone but ensure it's one from before you began to have your IMEI problem.
Copy this file to your PC then expand, place the expanded file and its contents in a place you will remember on your external SD card
Now as a precaution before you start making any changes, take note of the permissions of the original efs folder on the root of your phone,
and make a copy and place in a safe place even thou it could be corrupt.
Now Open root explorer option change root explorer from Read Only to Read Write
Now you can delete your corrupted efs folder and replace it with the copy from your EFS_BACKUP folder from your external SD card
Now reboot and fingers crossed you should be back on network good luck, I hope this helps

Mate my point is there is nothing to flash, it's simply copy paste, expand file, goto root delete old file and replace with uncompressed file.
When you uncompress the .tar do this in a folder on your desktop and you will see the contents for yourself,
NOTE you are not installing anything onto your PC you're just uncompressing a file in a folder oh and don't forget to remove the compressed file.

Can X-Plore file manager with root permissions do the trick ??
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't think so as you're not able to check file permissions.
I used https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wiY29tLnNwZWVkc29mdHdhcmUucm9vdGV4cGxvcmVyIl0.
You can find a free apk out there on the tinterweb, I would always recommend purchasing but it's up to you
Oh and FORGET about Odin you don't need it and it will not help you READ my instructions
