samsung s3 help
could you please link me to a solved thread with this exact problem please
unless you backed up your efs partition . you cant revert to an older modem . my advice for now is stay with mg4 and back up efs . apparently for as of right now if you change your modem you will most likely lose your imei

hey android freeeaks...
HELP ME OUT PLEASE!!
I have updated my Korean Galaxy S2 to GT-I9100 (INU) & in the process corrupted the EFS folder, losing my IMEI Number...
Any method that I discover to correct this problem requires me to backup the original EFS folder which I can get only from the stock 2.3.3 firmware that came with the phone.
So kindly please help me by sharing the link from which I can download the stock 2.3.3 firmware for M250K.
Any help will be deeply appreciated.

samsung galaxy s2 i9100 imei null/null
I need any file can be flashed over odin , because it's not rooted
thank you
So go to Samfirmware/AndroidFirmwares.net/Samsung-Updates.com, get some stock roms for your country/carrier & flash them. If it's a case of the IMEI disappearing temporarily, you'll get it back. If it's permanently borked & you don't have an EFS backup, take it to a Samsung service centre or local mobile repair shop.
Update rom stock from odin ?

imei null/null
Hey I have the same problem my i9100 shows imei null/null need to rapair it somehow. I have already tried flashing oficial firmwares from sammobile
Many local mobile repair shops can fix this for you relatively cheaply (for example, where I live I can get it done for AUD$30), a Samsung service centre will charge you a lot more purely because they can.
Hello people, so my brother gave me today his galaxy s3 to update it. He had 4.0.4 i update it to the last version i know the 4.3 'ZTA-I9300UBUGNB1-20140321150530' 'I9300UBUGNB1_I9300ZTAUGNA2_I9300UBUGMK1_HOME.tar' It from the mobile carrier Claro brazil.
Well i didnt noticed anything since because the sim card wasnt inserted. And today when i inserted it it the phone was locked.I did the same thing to my s3 and it didnt lock. I tried using the galasy s unlock apk but it didnt work same with voodoo and other apps. Imei shows normal.
I tried with the *#197328640# and i get menu not exist current command is 186.
So should i try with sammobile. What could have gone wrong??
P.D i downgraded to 4.1.2 I9300XXEMG4_I9300PHEEMG2_PHE <--- Unbranded And still the same error

You cannot unlock 4.3 because of efs v2 problem implemented by Samsung you would need to have a copy of your efs v1 from 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 and flashback to 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 then restore that efs then unlock with GalaxySim unlock or similar software..
i always do the efs backup first but this time. i just dont know why i didnt backup the efs when i was on 4.0.4 i made it when i upgraded to 4.3. I guess i'll just try with the z3x box
Afaik that won't work either.

i losing my efs folder and files and i dont have a backup
can i recover if i install a stock firmware on galaxy s3
if yes ,were can i download the firmware my galaxy s3 its from Portugal
help me please
Depends how you 'lost' the efs. If you deleted it then no, nothing will fix it apart from a paid repair.
If you just tried to downgrade to a firmware incompatible with your efs then flashing a 4.3 stock firmware might fix it. Download from sammobile.
no i never deleted i just install a galaxy s5 rom
but now i have installed a stock rom every thing its fine my imei its good but i can unlock my galaxy s3 SIm
how do i do my firmware its 4.3
Buy an unlock code.
