I totally agree with you.
But I did see a member just recently who could see the EFS as a blank folder without being rooted. Only when he got root was he able to see the contents inside it.
Just wanted to verify that this was not a similar scenario.

yes there is a way to use the IMEI from the note under the battery, you can refer to this thread which with minor changes could be used for galaxy s2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1802024
NB! DO NOT PROCEED IF YOU ARE NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
As for the OP
if you have a backup: restore from backup with appropriate tools - mentioned in forum here
if you don't have backup: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1659366&highlight=imei or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261948&highlight=imei since you have already tried the 9 step restore
sometimes flashing a stock rom gets your IMEI back

Recommendation :
Make a backup once for efs folder and make a copy on your pc.
big deal...copying an already corrupted efs....LOL
thank you all very much i will give it a go :}
hi it did not work i can not find nv_data file ? thanks

As quoted from that thread I posted above:
I think you deleted your original EFS folder that came preinstalled with your phone, because I had " .nv_data " file.
anyway, use " nv_data.bin.bak " instead of " .nv_data " and see what happens.

hi thanks for the help do i need to rename it?

Imei number is NULL/NULL and no sim detection

I have the stock leaked jelly bean, Wanted to try a new mod of neatrom so I downloaded a recover mod from the website rootgalaxy s2 or so. Anyway, I am not under warranty, And my phone now doesn't detect SIM. I'm a total newbie and I don't even have an EFS back up. Is there any chance of getting back the calling or sim detection? It tells me Baseband undetected.
Do you have nandroid bk up? Do that will bring it bk.
Loads of threads on here that will solve your prob. Just need to have a look about.

It's been said that without an efs backup I am all gone, I am searching if someone can recover it without a back up file?

Wifi and Bluetooth working, Mobile data needs a sim card which is not detectable.
The chances of you recovering it without a backup are close to zero (But not exactly zero). You'll be paying to have it fixed if you can't manage to fix it, but the worst that can happen if you try a bunch of things from here & they don't work is you'll still end up paying to have it fixed, so you might as well try them.

Can I go to a normal local technical service or I have to end up going to Samsung, will they fix this particular issue? Or they'll just ask for fees for a new motherboard.

True..
I had this issue the first time I updated to ICS via Kies. Didn't have an efs backup too!!
A trip to the service centre said my motherboard needed to be changed!
But I got back my IMEI when I reflashed the same firmware via Odin! Guess I was just lucky and that my efs folder was still intact...
Never trusted Kies ever since!

Problem was modding with another version of modems so it crashed.
What made me think it's not the efs was that the phone app crashes along with call setting and viber uses the music/sound speaker instead of the phone speakers, So I thought that it's a defect in the ROM.
Now, I can't find the stock toggle bar of jelly bean mods for me...
And I can't add a solved bracket, I will try again.

[Q] My phone froze while performing an official upgrade

Hi,
I have a Galaxy SII I9100G. Last night I tried to update my firmware (OTA) from ICS to JellyBean.
As soon as the update started, my phone froze (Its like me entire screen is filled with tiny green, red,blue, grey bugs) and nothing is working since then. I cant see anything on my device after i try to restart my phone.
I tried using the Vol Up+Home+Power button. But its still the same
I know that my display is working because the welcome screen on my phone appears without any problem. But after that I start seeing those bug like spots on my display.
Could someone please help me on this
Yours is an I9100G right?

When ur phone doesn't turn on at all, its called a 'brick'. When it turns on, but doesn't start up, its called a 'bootloop'.
In ur case, its better to flash the upgrade manually, then do a factory reset.
Can u get into recovery or download modes?

[Q] Can't Network unlock i9100

Just updated SuperNexus (To V.2, Build 4) and my phone has re locked itself. Tried chainfire's S2 unlock app but it doesn't work, also tried to use the tool here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731931 but that didn't work either. Just keeps displaying that damn "Insert SIM Network Unlock PIN"
It's happened to me before too, but last time it happened I managed to get it working with the Samsung Unlocker/Patcher mentioned previously. Now it won't work either
Any suggestions? I have tried fixing permission on the nv_data bin etc etc nothing works. Anyone able to shed some light on this?
Thanks,
Auzeras
